ruling social democrat suffer the worst election result in a century. to make substantial. immigration. say they're reviewing the fatal shooting of a sixteen year old palestinian boy to protest. the iraqi authorities declaring the country free of islamic state almost a year ago we report on how the terror group remains active across large swathes of the country. and my son and. i knew.

my brother was killed after he was kidnapped and. terrorists. international twenty four seven news and analysis from moscow my name's called in brighton am here monday morning start of a new week let's bring you up to speed on sweden's most significant election in decades the right wing sweden democratic party has won its largest share of the votes in a general election dominated by concerns over immigration. so with nearly all the ballots counted the sweden democrats took over seventeen percent of the vote which they see as a major breakthrough but it was a disappointing night for the ruling social democrats with just twenty eight percent it is the lowest result in a century swedish moderate so that as you can see in second place with nearly twenty percent with no clear leader the result paves the way for the legacy to go

see a chance now of forming a governing coalition a prime minister's calling for cross party cooperation to keep the sweden democrats out of power accusing them of trying to increase division. or correspondent or if an option was reporting for us in the run up to the election and she joins us now either take us through what the mood was like in the run up to the poll well the mood was not easy i can even say was a little bit depressed if this is what i felt after tehran sweden for almost two weeks people were telling me that things are not like they used to be in many different ways how care just a system in transportation i remember we had a run day with one politician in southern sweden and he was late for forty minutes after his train was delayed and he finally arrived he was like oh even trains and won't run on time anymore in this country it was a joke but with you know some truth so people were not quite happy with how the situation was ahead of the national vote but security was the biggest concern

with all those cars burned throughout the country with gang shootings on the rise you can imagine if we are from abroad. looking at these dramatic pictures like these pictures from sweden you can imagine what kind of feeling locals had so they were like. sure like it was. hey. let's take a look at these with film there. now we're driving to the southern part of stockholm and swedish captain. one of the areas that is called by police as vulnerable area especially vulnerable area all risk area around the. earth to meet i am. living proof that people can have. it every little bit i believe or island that would look like earth to go bush no good no can do they do no good job the mafia give me money no money but you.

did you shoot a gun you may know that but so all these bad things happened in those particular areas that police called a vulnerable areas but this feeling of insecurity spread far beyond me you know what the sweden democrats were capitalizing on that i was making no bones about trying to link immigration they've talked a lot about violent crime tearing they can paint and they they managed to convince people that immigrants are to blame that was they are solution i mean immigrants are to blame so let's do something with immigrants and this is the way to fix all the problems in our society we've talked to one of the party members. it's immigrants who burned cars who rapes murders who cross huge amount of money that affects all of their ias in the swedish society that's the real problem i think it's very easy to understand who to vote for. so whether this right wing party was

actually a right or wrong hard to say but many people believed that immigrants and civilians despite losing territory the militants are still active in many parts of the country switching to guerrilla warfare we heard from the relatives of some of those who lost their lives in the ongoing violence. oh. i would like to declare the towel on forces of the law school kids of i still controlled areas and have now full control of the iraqi syrian border by god's help we have prevailed. i am proud to report that the coalition to defeat isis has liberated very close to one hundred percent of the territory just recently held by these killers in iraq we've done

a great job with isis we have just absolutely decimated isis we've essentially. just absolutely obliterated isis in iraq. and you know happened at the checkpoint six or seven militants or did they manage to get out of the car the terrorists didn't ask for identity cards or anything they opened fire on them straight away and my son and husband were lying on the ground before i knew it the madras told us they were from the islamic state in iraq and. that's the father god and my brother was killed after he was kidnapped to a fake checkpoint run by i saw a terrorist. minister

to say about it therefore it is failed to warn us that the road was dangerous that there was a nice old checkpoint there was a complete can away and to keep the tool after the terrorists killed my son husband it took the security forces for hours to get to the site and even after they did they didn't venture close to the car as they feared it was booby trapped. or idea i saw a terrorist demanded the release of some sunni women held in iraqi custody in exchange for my brother and others but the authorities abdicated all responsibility for the negotiations and i found myself having to do the talks on my own current iraqi leaders off alias they keep making statements and giving conferences but they are

not doing anything on the ground. or the one. i saw has lost everything and they no longer have the ability to control territories so what they're doing now is an attempt to send messages to the media trying to show them they still exist by conducting terrorist attacks against innocent civilians those attempts are in fact pathetic and a sign of desperation. now in neighboring syria government troops amassed in flip province for a final rout of islamic state terrorists and militants but as the battle looms tensions growing between moscow and washington over the fate of the country down a quarter explained. the civil war in syria could be entering its final chapter but several obstacles remain before any victory over the terrorists could be declared.

in the tunne where americans have a military base new u.s. exercises have been launched unannounced. forces will demonstrate the capability to deploy rapidly a cell to target with integrated and ground forces and conduct a rapid ex filtration anywhere in the operation inherent resolve combined joint operations area that's after russia informed the us of its pursuit of terrorists into a so-called de confliction zone the russians informed the us on september the first the de confliction line that they intended to and to the conflicts to proceed terrorists the russians indicated by written notes in september the six that they would make precision strikes and conflicts against terrorists no comment about the note from russia so far the us though assured russia there's no intent for conflict with the pro syrian government forces but they will retaliate to any hostile

actions so what's the purpose of these military maneuvers. exercises like this both defeat isis capabilities and ensure that we are ready to respond to any threat to our forces and the widening war on terror has long been washington's go to justification for sticking it out in syria even boosting numbers on the ground with the end of the campaign in sight going to stay for several reasons stabilization assistance in the vital north and northeast protection of our allies to identify those responsible for using chemical weapons in syria and to pursue a diplomatic resolution to be a part of what will be a widening effort across the world to achieve a political settlement to set the conditions for the united nations backed geneva process to succeed america does not seek an indefinite presence in syria under no circumstance when america talks about terror its position is the

factions that have been making resistance against american hegemony in the region when actually the problem you've got to the americans plans of being you know destroy them billions and trillions of dollars are being wasted so meric of course is very very frightened it's very scared because this was completely and directly against its own interests. and adlib the last remaining terrorist stronghold fighting between the world and extremist groups has been put on hold the consequences of a major offensive operation in the middle of. what

holds and to listen to them. put them. so. they get accepted or rejected. so if you want to be president. or something want to. get it right. this is what. people are. interested in the why is it. they sit. back the israeli defense forces are investigating the killing of two palestinian teenagers during recent protests at the gaza border one of them a sixteen year old boy died of his words on saturday after he was shot by israeli forces video of the incident was shared widely online and be aware that we're about

from his injuries that he would not survive. the type of a new mission we had about that explode on impact with the body it's designed to cause severe damage and even death meanwhile the boy's sister and witnesses say he meant no harm. that leg always went to the demonstrations and we kept asking him not to go he was just a child i don't know how. it took a stand for the dignity and freedom that was taken away from him he delivered his message peacefully and all the videos show that it's and if there was a fair trial the people who killed him would be found guilty guilty is not the words that i was given his message on behalf of all our people that he wanted his rights to be respected along with the rights of the children of god he was. he posed no threat the seventeen year old boy was also killed by israeli fire on friday the i.d.f. also says a man was shot and died of his injuries on sunday when he tried to sabotage the

never been the like of it in modern russia it is huge in school hundreds of thousands of troops thousands of cruft in time needs multiple countries. to load. all stock which means in russian will test hundreds of divisions regiments fleets system wide stress that basically if there are weaknesses so laziness in the russian military they'll find out.

outrage how day russia do this it must be preparing for a new world war or to invade nato. or to invade nato in a new world war the usual fear mongering which is notably absent when others carry out military exercises and the spite nato observers being invited to attend maneuvers are not directed against other countries not consistent with our military doctrine which is defensive. side this promises to be a spectacle to remember and we'll be there. with the latest and greatest boss talk two thousand and eight. u.s. prosecutors have admitted to falsely accusing an alleged russian spy of offering sex in exchange for employment there is currently in custody awaiting trial over the claims in july but i was arrested on charges of acting as
