a further tightening of u.s. sanctions on russia will be viewed as they start of an economic war that's how russian prime minister dmitry medvedev rakta newly announced restrictions by the u.s. over the poisoning of former russian double agent sergei screwball and his daughter in britain in march if it comes to banning banking activities or certain currency use we will be able to call it a declaration of economic war and this will require a reaction by implementing economic political or if necessary any other measures the new sanctions will come into realms the first places limits on financing and export especially on a number of national security goods the second wave will hit diplomatic relations as well as banking and imports initial something takes up the story. when it comes to global disagreement sanctions that the u.s. weapon of choice as russia's number two at the u.n.

put it let us welcome the united sanctions of america well russia is being on the receiving end of plenty of them they stem from allegations of election meddling military aggression human rights abuses all cyber crimes take your pick and the latest well that's of the souls we're poisoning washington says it has determined that russia used a military nerve agent to attack form a double agent of paul and his daughter where are you getting the conclusion that her she's behind the screen poisoning i will leave it to others to characterize the current state of our understanding of the screen but others haven't given any evidence either just various grades of highly likely is highly likely that russia was responsible we do hold russia culpable culpable culpable culpable for the attempted murder and there's been uncertainty from specialists investigating the case. as analysis of the p.c. w.'s report i did to find the country. of origin of the agent used

in this attack and we continue to see a sort of a series of corporate baggers here of insinuation that russia is involved which basically is a mood music which isn't feeding the population in the west with the idea yes it is the russians despite the evidence just a constant constant stream of these. people just accept oh yes it must be the russians therefore that's ok we have asked him point more sanctions it's time that we get all the evidence but my suspicion is that as i'm going to happen all the way that seems a valid till interest to washington which is found guilty slapped it with new sanctions and strangely given its ninety days to prove it wasn't involved or it will ratchet up the penalties to a whole new level with even talk of branding russia a state sponsor of terrorism that regardless of trump. wanting russia as a partner in his fight against terror and the toll so it doesn't seem to matter that the u.s. itself has

a long history of consorting with groups branded as terrorists for instance america's support for the movement which techie label to terror groups organizing an attempted coup. sooner or later the united states will make a choice either to. either the bloody. walkers. or how about the american officials who backed their reign extremist group then wish i had the. bombs the headquarters of the islamic republic party there is a viable opposition to the rule of the. and that opposition is centered in this room. and let's not forget how america stood alongside the afghan wish i had been in its battle against the soviet union i don't need to say that group to form into al-qaeda the people we are fighting today we funded twenty years ago.

america dealing with a spot and groups amount to sponsoring terrorism while the state department has a good answer for that i will leave it to others to characterize the current state of our understanding. time now for the third and the last piece in the series of reports on the fate of children obvious long mixtape foreigners from russia but didn't travel to the south of the country to talk to people desperate for news of family members pledge allegiance to the terror group. it's early morning but the office of those human rights group and brosnan is packed with women all desperate to find out any in use about their loved ones many have come here from other regions of russia's north caucasus and almost all cases their relatives left russia to join i.c.l. in syria often taking their young children with them these women are united in their quest to have one simple question answered are other family members still

alive there are over six hundred women and children reported missing at this human rights office and these are just some of the photos their family members have left in a bid to locate them now our free picture has the name date of some general information on the back this is a four year old so my at this child left rochelle when he was less than a year but there are so many more of them. he said doesn't miss a single meeting held at the office she says she has already accepted that she will never see her only son again but she just hopes that her grandchildren are still alive she brought pictures of her son's wife mariam one taken before she went to syria and another when she was over there with her son but he still has never even

seen her grandchildren and pass on both of them were born in syria and communication was lost long ago so much so that she doesn't even know the name of her granddaughter. so we all hope that it will be ok that somehow it will all be ok i just feel so sorry for the children it's so difficult when you don't know where exactly your children are and heard anything from my daughter in law in the last eight months and then i cry and i will turn thinks is this year it is so difficult i don't think i can last much longer. that enid tries to spend almost all her free time at this office coming here after work she listens to the women's stories fills out forms and registers the newcomers her own personal tragedy brought her here to this place three years ago her brother left home and never returned his phone was last tracked in turkey but not a trace since almost three years of silence said.

it is very difficult for me now it was so close since we were kids always together went to school together to university together work together he was always around i guess after he left i feel like part of me is gone i don't leave a normal life now i just exist. was arena still believes that one day she will see her brother a life she has dedicated her life to helping others find their families twenty one russian women are currently in prison there are all of them were sentenced to life behind bars but they're there in prison with their children so now we're trying to bring back these children it is going to be such a joy just one child for to us if i help these children maybe this might somehow

help me bring my brother back home. for her search has come to its conclusion but there was a no for a retail ending she found out that her older sister aida is among a group of russian women convicted and sentenced to life in prison in iraq for joining and supporting i so she is in jail with her twelve year old daughter so while god knows she will probably never see her sister again she is doing everything possible. to get her a nice back home and give her the childhood she's so clearly lost. that she still can't come to terms with her sister's decision. i don't think she was looking for a better life there were building a house together our brothers gave us the land we had so many plans we planted

trees there we wanted to do so much we had so much planned for the future and suddenly this happened. all these stories are tragically familiar had this thought out of a who leads the search for missing people says that the real number of families in fact it is catastrophic she says their database comprises over two thousand people with thank you lisa i feel irritated when i hear people say you're saving terrorists i'm deeply disturbed by that was what is this child's fault what's the fault of these children only the fact that their parents took them and they became victims of this war when you start to deal with this problem you understand these are human lives we're talking about and they are our citizens it's easy to just ignore these people there are only two official employees working at this office the others are volunteers that help when there is time as there is not enough manpower to deal with the vast amount of people affected and every second counts we

can't afford to lose time every minute cost the lives of one or two children says afterwards began to reunite families nine planes have arrived back in russia carrying a little over one hundred people just a fraction of the thousands stranded and the war torn region. reporting from russia's republic of chechnya. democrats are looking for a new tool to color fake news online they are asking facebook to share data on its users so that they can then be fed what they say is the right information the d.n.c. has frequently accused russia of trying to influence voters in the two thousand and sixteen presidential elections by using false reporting go take a look at what's in the plan. it's ok not as great as we want who might you hear that from a teacher checking your rest say your gym coach boss or

a senior technology officer for the democrats talking about how well the likes of facebook are cooperating with their party as if catering to the d.n.c. was on the network's mission statement what would make mr krikorian happier we would love to do is give every campaign something like the weather report to tell every campaign what is being said on social media in the morning and how they can combat it i'll explain the dems won facebook to look for people who've been fed fakes or propaganda the network should then share that audience with the d.n.c. so that they could feed them what's accurate i.e. the right thing. the democrats are hungry for facebook data this could have been a great moment to remind you of the cambridge analytical data gate if one person if you joined the asp i would not just see your facebook profile i would see all of the facebook profiles of everybody that you're friends with and people had no idea

that it was being taken in this way you know that was one massive gate but i'll remind you of something else the a bomb it seemed had a solution in place a facebook application more than one million a bomb about because you signed up for the app gave the campaign permission to look at their facebook friends lists in an instant the campaign had to wait see the hidden young vote just a little democrat trick to get hold of some user data for political gain before the two thousand and twelve vote you never heard about it because pretty much no one cared those were the days no hash tag collusion media fallout news anchors didn't go on about a twenty four seven and some people in charge at facebook were just real fans of mr obama facebook was surprised to enable to psych out the whole social graph the. they didn't stop us once they realized that was what we were doing they allowed us to do things they wouldn't have allowed someone else to do because they were on our side should we assume the dems are still on facebook's friend list you know they've

been told to sort the russian fakes out and so be has been taken measures they've just gotten rid of pages followed by hundreds of thousands of people because they're linked to russia i mean facebook's not so sure about that bit we're still in the very early stages of our investigation and don't have all the facts including him maybe behind this but remember for the democrats it's ok not as great as we want and so i'd love to know what type of audiences were these hundreds of thousands of people because we want to talk to them or work with them come on it's just a bit of audience data and while the subject of social media is debated the problems that could cause or real during a college interview a seventeen year old student was asked not about his educational success but why he follows alex jones on twitter a controversial show host recently banned by several social networks the students

laura explained to my colleague neil harvey what happened. you represented a college student who wasn't admitted to university because they followed alex jones on twitter is that true and if so can you tell us more about but sure i'm happy to explain exactly what happened what was going on was it during the interview process the applicant was question about the fact that he was following mr jones on twitter and the fact that he was looking his stuff up and that was something that was a challenge during the during the actual interview process and subsequently the parents of the student reached out to me and then i reached out to the the mission's director of the university and made sure that the situation was resolved in the students' satisfaction so the problem here was that the fact that the interviewer was actually questioning why this young person was following mr jones in the other types of internet activities that he was partaking in alex jones the

man behind the alternative news channel in force was suspended this week by several social media platforms they say that's because he spread hate speech and glorify violence broadly share against us people need to be more educated on health social networks use their information. i'm a big fan of increasing people's personal privacy and i'm a big fan of not only personal privacy but freedom of speech and the problem here is the fact that a lot of people just don't understand how and they said a lot of these companies are and how invasive of a lot of private institutions are using their technology trying to figure out exactly what your race is what your religion is what your political viewpoints are and they're taking this information and they're using it against you so that's what i think people need to better understand these these issues and defend themselves against them and the only way they can do that is they become more educated about what is actually happening in the world today. a reminder of our breaking news this

welcome back u.s. senators are accusing the government of contributing to the deadly saudi led coalition strike that hit a school bus in yemen on thursday twenty nine children were killed and thirty injured all under the age of fifteen according to the red cross well u.s. state department spokesperson has called for the coalition to conduct an internal investigation and outline that saudi arabia is a key partner for america and the reach him. we called the saudi led coalition to conduct a thorough and transparent investigation into the incident you also supply the tremendous amount of weaponry then the data for targeting to the saudis so that. sorry no lie wrong is that wrong sorry these ladies every hear laughing. on that i would refer you to the department of defense that is involved in that but you as you know saudi arabia is an important strategic partner in the region to the

united states video of the aftermath shows the extent of the children's injuries please be warned that what we're about to show you is upsetting to watch the strike hit the north of the country which is under the control of who the rebels saudi arabia launch an intervention against them back in two thousand and fifteen in an official statement riyadh defended the attack accusing the rebels of using children as human shields. the targeting today is a legitimate military action conducted in conformity with the international humanitarian law to get the militants responsible for planning and targeting civilians which resulted in killing and injuring them the united states is by far the largest supplier of weaponry to the saudis and also provides targeting assistance for air strikes and military drills last year saudi arabia spent seven hundred fifty million dollars on training by american specialists it claimed to reduce civilian casualties political commentator lou rockwell thinks the u.s.

bears responsibility for the atrocities in yemen and that the state department will never admit it. i notice that you seem tongue tied about it though you would state department spokesman she didn't she didn't like the fact that the questioner was asking her about what was going on in yemen we know the u.s. is selling the weapons we know the u.s. is providing targeting data so it's it's horrendous and i would say the u.s. because absolutely direct responsibility for this it's telling the saudis what to do it's telling the probably the u.a.e. what to do certainly the saudis it's a horrible bloody business and it's it's a war that's gotten virtually no attention in the us. israel and hamas militants have reached a ceasefire agreement following two days of trading heavy fire. in one of the latest bombing raids
