artist group and due to their portrayal of nudity. you have a social media example we have to take you away from the nudity thing to protect you against nudity even if artistic in nature. will welcome in a very good morning from moscow on the key aaron and this is r t international we start with a developing story from syria where thirty eight people wounded in a series of terror attacks in the southwest of the country the most serious was in the city of sweeter one suicide bomber detonated his explosives in a market place there and two others were killed by all forty's before they could before they could carry out an attack either a soul so occurred in villages near the city state t.v. says islamic states are behind the attacks. meanwhile

in iraq islamic state is apparently trying to make a comeback with the number of terror attack has doubled in the past month in the country that's according to a security advisor of the iraqi government that we spoke to iraq declared a final victory over eisel last december. and. in june the i saw militants stepped up their activity according to government data there were eighty three cases with the ducted in killed civilians that's twice the number in me when i still had been devastated by the government military crackdown we've asked the iraqi ministry of internal affairs for comment on this and we'll bring you their response as soon as we get it the u.s. started its campaign in twenty fourteen and is continuing to strike terrorist targets in iraq mark gasnier of reports on the fight to eradicate the hardest. it took very needy the entire world united to defeat isis caliphate didn't
4:03 am
syria and iraq they did it they destroyed the caliphate albeit at a huge cost and proclaim victory some did more proclaiming than others coalition to defeat isis has liberated very close to one hundred percent of the terror but done a great job with us as we have just absolutely decimated isis just absolutely obliterated isis in iraq a case of celebrating a little early isis was never beaten and they lost the battles but the war's far from over they've gone back to basics hidden run raids assassinations insurgency terror but. there is still some fear it's possible for groups of militants to go into houses and slaughter entire families if you were there you probably know want to stay if i were to go back who would protect me and my family they would just come over and slaughter us and forces and they come to protect
4:04 am
their lives in iraq isis has gone underground these area of iraq is colloquially become known as the triangle of death because of this new insurgency. they operate in small groups half a dozen jarvis that moves making it incredibly difficult to track them down. because remember there are still a few i saw a sleeper cells hidden in places such as the desert the forests on the islands of the river and among civilians few sleeper cells doesn't do it justice kidnappings killings have sawed as much as ten fold in just a few months in iraq a government advisor told us they target officials plan. bombs set up think roadblocks and murder will then vanish sometimes with prisoners.
4:05 am
the families children of these soldiers that were kidnapped by isis begged the government for help to find whoever kidnapped them to secure their release anything they got nothing and went on its own i mean those are the men who protected the prime minister the minister of health and many other things source this is their reward for this service been dumped here on the floor. some of the hostages one thousand dead and their bodies mutilated likely tortured before death their corpses rigged with explosives and the government's afraid afraid of people finding out how bad it's becoming you hold the. iraqi state media staying silent about the kidnapping so as not to spread panic can hinder the government's rescue the number of ice or kidnappings the search since may be another special forces do not have
4:06 am
enough resources to hunt the militants down but is there hiding out in remote mountainous areas i still have managed to find sources of funding in the so-called triangle of death they terrorize the locals hundreds of villages in that area have been depopulated now the terrorists use them as military bases jails and commando units iraq is at a crossroads it learned to level the cities to defeat ises caliph it but that doesn't work anymore isis is an idea of zealotry fanaticism it's also an outlet for desperation for violence for blood and ideas are the hardest of all to kill. a second meeting between donald trump and landed near putin seems to be a step closer the kremlin has confirmed that it's received an official invitation to a summit in washington at the end of the year we symposia over half of americans surveyed
4:07 am
back a second summit well over sixty percent believe they are better relations with russia would be beneficial for the u.s. meantime the u.s. state department spokesperson says she does not believe that russia has received a formal invitation. that would be something that would come out of the white house so it's you know you'd have to direct that question to the white house about whether or not it was a formal invitation i don't believe it's been a formal invitation but really i'm speaking that's out of my lane and so i just refer you back to the white house my understanding is that nothing has been set up at this point. the u.s. media has been voicing concerns over the possibility of trump and putin building closer relations many describe the first summit in-house think as the manifestation of a new world order so mirror cohen looks into the hysteria but summits course we don't trust russia we don't trust putin we never well they're never going to be our friend that's just a fact this president is dangerous he's in bed with putin all of his.
4:08 am
connections with russia the kremlin and the oligarchs i think he has put into print the next time the two leaders meet could be at the g twenty summit in argentina or right here in d.c. in the nation's capital and apparently john bolton national security advisor will be working out all the logistics the next time he's in moscow but the last meeting the helsinki summit that took place last week provoked a total hysteria here in the u.s. the media accuse trump of treason just for talking to putin calling him names like a trader a week poppy a kremlin stooge putin's pop it and even accused him of being affiliated with the f.s.b. and the k.g.b. so it was a totally outlandish. i don't know which side is the bride and which side of it is the groom anderson but it is we're sort of feels like we're at
4:09 am
a wedding you have been watching perhaps one of the most disgraceful performances by an american president why is president trump putting himself in his a vulnerable high stakes an area and letting flat in their putin lead. a man that even president trump now says interfered in u.s. democracy invited to the white house and now the president has apparently doubled down these kids by writing him to washington so let's collude again like we did. and there's been no letup in the russian and meddling allegations the secretary of homeland security told reporters the government needs to prepare for further into ferentz coming from russia donald trump quickly five back at that statement saying mosco might medlin coming elections but only to help the democrats and there you can see russia will be fighting very hard to have an impact in the
4:10 am
upcoming election based on the fight the new president has been tough from russia to me it would be pushing very hard for the democrats they definitely don't want trump in the latest larry king show policy king c.n.n. journalist jake tapper's says that shawn still does not believe the allegations against russia after president trump had publicly sided with putin. over the u.s. intelligence agencies over whether or not russia interfered in the election dan coats put out a letter affirming that it was in fact russia. president trump tried to walk that back but as we saw just recently president from just called the russia allegations of russian interference hoax so we know he doesn't believe that dan coats is in the doghouse because he is saying what he thinks is true and what the intelligence community reports to be true. is john kelly still got the quality you had. i don't think so but it's also just a question of can anyone rein in president trump can anyone try to get president
4:11 am
trump to act the way that a normal president would act to back the intelligence community to back his own intelligence officers to not lash out emotionally on twitter i don't think john kelly could it has obviously been able to has not been able to do that i don't think there's anyone that could really be able to get president trump to do that whether it's a vodka and jared or priebus or whoever i mean president trump is going to be who he is he. faced the can shock to the on twelve by banging out the ties and featuring the way of the seventeenth century flemish to pull hooven's. delved into the control. full centuries these were considered priceless treasures and masterpieces and now that contentious well according to facebook it appears the platform's take box
4:12 am
approach to ads means that console the difference between art and pornography annoying art galleries and museums all of about open from visits one does to mark zuckerberg about ruben's breasts we have noticed that facebook consistently rejects works of art by bits of paul reubens even though we secretly have to laugh about it your cultural censorship is make you want for all the difficult in the append that to add to the facebook see they've even also a big to discuss the matter. so what is the seventeenth century artist well his baroque style paintings of famously known to feature nudes and cherubs sometimes delicately draped with cloth but this artistic taste is a big no no with the meta john strict advertising rules they call the flemish tourist company thinking if he's not appropriate for facebook he's not appropriate for you and if you have a social media account we have to take you away from the nudity thing to protect
4:13 am
your good spirits even if autistic in nature this includes paintings individual bodies such as not to speak cleavage story but it's just that we put your head in front of this painting we are searching for. you for. facebook has said it's open to discussion but there is no doubt this is great payoff spin by museum curators it is in fact possible to post artistic needs on facebook if it's part of an advocate in the stricter guidelines and could be rejected but facebook might be playing it safe for different reasons back in two thousand and seventeen facebook came into fire for failing to may have sexual images of children and also failing to stop leaks revenge porn photos all this spot concerns in the face. moderation system facebook's very both expenses flagged up posts but it appears that makes it hard to distinguish between pornography and
4:14 am
artistic nudity but when it comes to exploitation though you can be sure as a facebook user you'll be protected from ours in the video you just saw visitors to the ruben's house in antwerp where jokingly prevented from seeing paintings by baroque monsters to protect them from nudity the marketing director of a visit flanders told us how people responded to the parent. well they are very funny actually because they were always aware that this kind of artist or paintings are not able to be shown on the social media they were not aware of it and actually we were not aware of it either because we have planned a whole campaign of facebook to make the world a rare of five from the cheers of flemish masters and it was only in february that we found out that all the new it in the paintings was blocked by facebook we absolutely know the rules of facebook and about advertising but we would actually
4:15 am
it's an open invitation to facebook to make them rethink it the rules that they have because we believe that not showing the new thing paintings is like covering up five hundred years of our art and western history i understand of course there need to be very clear little rules and very good at facebook pay so much attention but we think that might be possible to make a clear distinction between. mute in paintings or millet in art which is completely different from from newt or pornographic knew what. the u.s. senate has revealed this year's defense policy bill that puts conditions on u.s. arms sales to saudi arabia for the operation in yemen it wants reassurances from saudi arabia that it will do everything to end the yemeni civil war and eliminate civilian deaths but it's caleb morgan explains there are ways around the policy. now at first glance it actually looks like washington is starting to distance
4:16 am
itself from saudi arabia's war in yemen as washington scrambles over to the new defense bill the secretary of state would have to search for its congress the sorry coalition is undertaking efforts to end the civil war and reduce the risk of harm to civilians. without the set's vacation the united states would be banned from refueling saudi coalition aircraft for missions exclusively focused on the civil war some media outlets are all over it but listen to the language undertaking efforts to end the civil war now that's a clever way of shielding themselves from criticism and allowing any real efforts to measure their progress now the saudis have been saying the same thing for some time now that they are taking measures to cease the conflict and they've also been playing the mercy card they've actually donated a billion dollars to the united nations for relief in yemen but that's help for the very same country they've been bombing for over three years with civilians dying by
4:17 am
the thousands. the thing is under u.s. arms control policy it's illegal to export arms to countries that target civilians well not anymore one word changes everything now the white house says it is legal to sell weapons to countries as long as they don't intentionally target civilians but when has it ever been intentional. and while the defense spending bill is being discussed the saudis already bagged themselves a new contract lockheed martin just signed a deal worth four hundred fifty million dollars all in the name of global security
4:18 am
the deal will see saudi arabia acquire full surface combatants as possible launch agreement with the u.s. to improve global security and support economic progress this is nothing other than an attempt. by congress to put lipstick on the pig and other words to make something that's gross and awful and illegal and immoral and on ethical to make it look as if it's either better or getting better or the us congress people the elected officials don't want to embrace full responsibility now as congress debates this year's military spending bill including some vague language about saudi arabia the weapons deals just keep rolling in with the lives of civilians in yemen caught in the middle kaleb up and r.t. new york the saudi led coalition started its bombing campaign against eminent twenty fifteen against both the coalition has conducted thousands of ad strikes on
4:19 am
some have hit civilian areas however they always deny it's doing not intentionally saudi arabia says that who through apple's pose a threat to its borders will be back with more news after the show bike. everywhere in the world my guess is that probably just about everywhere women expect men to make that first move and here we are in an age where men are scared to make the first move don't know how to make the first move don't know what's right to make the first move. and when else truths seem wrong. why don't we just don't all. let me. get to cheap out these days comes out to. and in detroit equals betrayal. when something you find themselves worlds apart we choose to look

4:23 am
a number of them are prone to violence since. they are very day jurors ideologically and in terms of organizations but five percent of them can be considered extremists brigs berger extremists have in common is there an obsession with weapons. the same report also claims that nearly eight hundred of the country's citizens are islamists and one hundred seventy of them are in prison or thora to say the increase brings new challenges but that the country's agencies were strong enough to deal with it a member of the german left party who we spoke to believes there's a direct link between the rise of the far right and islamic radicalization. yeah and you fire the best yes the policies of german government as last year i think what we're seeing us that intelligence services have neglected the threat from right wing activists in the last days you know of it there and as you where we have

a former undercover police officer who was aware of the practice. certainly had several near death experiences. been threatened with a samurai sword with knives in various occasions stripped at gunpoint and you know you hear some of the information certainly from organizations like the children society they report the kind of thing that's going on to children involved these gangs already they are being forced to carry drugs in their rectum they're being intimidated and filmed in compromising situations that the level of intimidation that already exists is quite horrific and that should be enough information to to say to say that there is no policing solution to this and to ramp up the violence even more by using child informants is just the wrong way to go now i have to point out most people who have commented on this topic have rightly talked about the human rights and protecting the individual child involved
4:26 am
a child who may be chosen to employ trait agog that's a legitimate point and i agree completely but we have to look at this in a broader sense. the use of child informants like this will make it more dangerous for effort child exploiters because it will increase the violence and exploitation . when i would r.t. we always like to hear your thoughts on our stories they do get in touch by following us on social media will be back in about thirty minutes with the latest to see then. what holds as. they put themselves on the line. to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president and should. somehow want to be. actually going to be press this is what before three of the more people. interested always in the
