just a. few. survivors of the massacre at a technical college speak to our team as three days of mourning begin a bit of a warning you may find the following images disturbing. as the city of carriage grieves chilling similarities are drawn to the columbine massacre in the u.s. almost two decades ago. plus twitter releases

a vast number of tweets supposedly generated by moscow trolls meddling in u.s. politics even though most of them were written in russian. and promises severe consequences over the assassination of saudi journalist jamal khashoggi who the u.s. president now believes is dead turkey claims the saudi government was behind the killing but riad denies the accusations. international. certainly glad to have you with us. all right three days of mourning are underway in crimea after a bombing and mass shooting at a college in the city of care twenty one people were killed and dozens injured now

the moment of the shooting was captured on video by one of the students and a warning you might find the following footage. the attacker set off a homemade bomb in the college cafeteria before going on a shooting rampage he then turned the gun on himself vigils have been held in care prayers were read for those who lost their lives and for the injured parties what i've got to have is in the city for us. the woods anguish sorrow grief don't begin to cover what has gripped the city all the pain all the sea is here the chief question as it was in the beginning is why why when the first bomb exploded when the first shot sounded and when the first scene ages the first youths

in the college behind me jumped out of windows and scaled the fences in an attempt to get away. to shouldn't be to. fail to do what you're doing if you can do it she does it it's a bloody good for species but i washed up on the ballot and we knew it was national we still leaves it have a bit of that yoko don't know what i don't see which is unit but it could be q. this is. the city is the city that i see so you can see. the problem with so much testimony so many witness accounts is that it gets more and more difficult emotionally draining to listen to them hear friends describe how they witnessed their classmates died this is a good little lump of visual god knows because i live so hush hush as it should be on the. radio like you know. as

a slave that they gave. the night she was about us if you will come you bust as i was binoy. data. but him was just in that you know it you're right about that it was either going to sit. on the trio system video which gives me what you got though because i beseech us see if you don't forgive you. if you do report for you go to people come on movie and then they don't vote for. you in anything but. they will but those of us who need you to keep in mind when you put people you know when we need. from here about the scale of this calamity how first year medical students were enlisted to help deal with the wounded but may get a bonus told the mission is time norfolk with a bit of a bomb i should know but ashi about does seem like i probably will call it a mystery of my gear. but it goes at the show you go to someone and i get sick sick

pull up on you can you get to believe me or they'll go be amazed at what i should be i said but in my sin as i believe i see this book way defunct initially about him but anybody there just on the bill i state again you could have posted over the show just. what is clear is that no one had any sort of hint that this was coming nobody put the suspected shooter into the maniac category but it all began in the early hours of the morning with a ball. given that it was about. the priest. to talk with six among us to talk about it. but there's still a. bit. of how common. are

. they going to proceed because. if you. do you have. a reasonable. even if you know the. clause that if you agree that india is the right result. was the bothered me good. though. but little oh good. god. i'm one of those these i know paul if you are the boys you thought. want to see the good you really believe. that.

meanwhile six injured students have been flown to the russian capital for further treatment according to the moscow mayor they were hit by bomb fragments the gunman who committed suicide was an eighteen year old student of the college we spoke to his grandmother and neighbors. what could have to do with just to get me to start us doesn't. hurt and so we couldn't include you. credit for it you propose we did he was working with this just so much going bush was talking so sure just so you know but he just wanted. to stay out of the just a more. simple sinister it's

a gentle but i deeply committed like you to know. this so i guess with the particular studies to. move down we have more of the issue of acquirements and do you have any of the legality you will soon be instructional marry you i'm sure you could then shoot in your mobile really not notice more than a. museum to use yet you probably am not winning in one little mall this video has been released appearing to show the killer by emulation it was filmed on saturday we went to the weapon store and spoke to the seller. she did we should look into this but all of the dog bites was misquoted to cover the city still stored in the box is a buddhist a little cool people who knew was an equal but those in the know just who can the proverbial. miss the ability of those who would go. look at me i'm game your

bro you can actually. give me you but i will pull a new political one of them purely be sure. right wednesday's attack has been compared to another atrocity carried out almost twenty years ago. thank you. twitter has released

a vast number of tweets supposedly showing russian meddling in the two thousand and sixteen u.s. election. remember those big bad russian trolls you've heard about for what feels like years now who are alleged to have up and that the us presidential election the so-called troll factory a secretive technology firm that created and distributed both fake news and divisive stories and pose these were accounts that really looked like american citizens well and a bit for transparency twitter has published some nine million tweets from thousands of accounts they believe were run by stud trolls and if you like us find the data more than a bit difficult to interpret we're not conclusions have already been drawn by the digital forensic research lab twitter gave the group early access to the database and they put out a four part report where they outlined the major takeaways and some may surprise you for example the russian internet research agency's main target was apparently in fact russian speakers

a chart breaking down what language tweets were written and shows that for years those in russian vastly outweighed those an english rather interesting given how influential the fake accounts activity was meant to be among american voters there is no doubt the russians are trying to influence the presidential election russia's blatant interference in united states twenty sixteen presidential elections the fact is russia meddled in our twenty sixteen elections right speaking of influence the positive conclusion of this is that the trolls were less effective than may have been feared many achieve little or no impact and their operations will be washed away in the final hours of twitter according to the group's analysis the apparently ineffective russian operation had multiple goals including to prevent hillary clinton from winning the election that's something we've heard time and again and it's true that a good number of the tweets are anti hillary but those post didn't gain much traction whereas trump accounts such as these did the plus side to try on becoming

more on the hinge but the people are finally realizing the. maybe having a treasonous madman six your predator want supremacist in the white house maybe isn't such a good thing repeat if you think that drill donald trump is the worst president america ever had he's not worthy to be called a human being according to the report such a liberal accounts engage other users and much higher numbers meaning the trolls were much more successful at getting people to bash trump the man they were meant to be getting to the white house and the trolls were also found to have push anti russian stances they spread some content that was notably anti russian which highlights a key assessment of dissin from ation if successful in driving a country further apart rather than closer together internally that country would be less able to enact anti russian policy those gift tweeting trolls are clearly so smart they even outsmarted themselves like so much of the output of the internet

research agency in st petersburg it had nothing to do with the election two thirds of them came out after the election some supported some against him some for clinton though some against it and some of the russian language as well so it's a complete mixed bag of course you could say what are they doing it at all why they doing it and so you could say a lot of faith has to do it with a quick update i mean it's not you know with twitter is different but basically like so many of these posts on social media it's all about advertising it's all about raising profile so it's in my view a lot of this is making a mountain out of a molehill in the end the report warns that despite twitter's best effort and the fact that the troll farms goals went woefully unfulfilled they all mined this information war will soldier on be where. nearly half of u.s. soldiers believe their country is likely to be drawn into a major conflict within the next year this according to

a new poll forty six percent of service personnel believe such a conflict is somewhat or very likely up from five percent last year. members of the armed forces were also asked to rank the top dangers facing the u.s. at the top of the list were cyber terrorism along with russia and china former pentagon official michael maloof believes the key national threats are widely misunderstood we have a looming a confrontation growing and so the troops may be right but i think it's probably in the wrong area i don't think it's going to be either china or russia that they should be concerned about it should be about doing something against iran and i think this latest case with jamal khashoggi cyber terrorism as such even against troops in the field is a very realistic concern especially when you consider the extent to which the u.s. military today relies on technology to look at the f.

thirty five i mean if if an e.m.p. went off and and they were able to successfully to freeze all electronic components of that aircraft it would be useless and it's a ninety million dollar airplane per copy. a senior official in the german defense ministry has been criticized for paying tribute to the nazi general advena rommel rommel played a leading role in the invasion of france and of the north africa campaign in one thousand nine hundred four he was involved in a plot to assassinate hitler and was then forced to commit suicide and member of the left party in germany told us rommel should never be regarded as a hero. he's not a hero because he had some military success in africa that's not the reason his character. was the character of a nazi and then he in the last six months he

got a distance and i think we should approach that kind of distance today that some people leave the right. and le pen and all that right people and the mounties too and come to the proctors if discourse peter thomas tweet was condemned by the leading a left wing a politician petra pow who described rommel as a war criminal her green party colleague echoed that view saying that ramos crimes in italy should never be forgotten in an interview or defended his tweet saying it the nazi general repeatedly disregarded criminal orders and heroically plotted against. left party member dieter dem again thinks is such ideas would not prove so popular if leftists found a better way to engage with the public. on the weekend there were over. two hundred thousand people demonstrating against rasmussen and i think it's

a good sign that on the same weekend thousands and thousands also demonstrating on brokers of targets the left lost some people who were earning lower than two thousand or rule a month. very poor who do not know what will happen tomorrow and i think greed should. have learned again to speak in their language and to think with and sorrows. remarks by the outgoing u.s. ambassador to the un during a meeting of conservatives have been leaked nikki haley claimed that she was initially offered the post of secretary of state by president trump but turned it down as she didn't feel qualified and then she felt much the same about her position at the un i thought the job should go to someone who didn't have the same there in kerry i don't draw and honestly i don't even know what the un does.

if you haley is a do to quit her role as on void to the u.n. in january we heard from journalist max blumenthal who was at the closed door meeting where he was speaking. she revealed that her learning curve was too steep to be secretary of state something we all knew because she had just been governor of south carolina before and had a foreign policy experience limited to having lunch at the international house of pancakes maybe she was playing to the crowd but i think you know in a setting like that where she thinks that there is no media present doesn't know that there is a journalist there i think her comments should be taken very seriously and received as her most candid some of her most candid remarks today. donald trump obviously was not basing his decision to ask nikki haley to be u.n.

ambassador on her experience but more on her profile he wanted to diversify his cabinet have an up and coming female republican who was a minority she's of indian descent probably people within the pro israel lobby who are pushing trump's transition team to appoint her so that they could make sure that the u.s. would represent israel's interests at the u.n. and that's exactly what happened. nikki haley during the meeting with the council for national policy boasted of how tough the trumpet ministration was on russia she boasted that the trumpet ministration had expelled over one hundred diplomats that the trumpet ministration had imposed harsh sanctions that had wrecked russia's economy and she boasted of arms sales to the ukrainian military and she said the obama administration can't even hold a candle to us on russia and this earned her lots of applause. president

putin spoke on thursday at the annual valdai discussion club held this year in sochi aside from the global issues there was time for some humor as well. just a little for your somebody to hear as the organizers propose but i hope it's not going to be four or five times longer than usual sticker shock because there's an old joke maybe someone doesn't know it and will be interested so the question is how do you relax i just don't get nervous. so i think someone here will argue with you later because the perception is that russia makes a lot of problems and it was a way to win late so let's don't now how much time are we going to sit here for one very humble media but if it provokes such hope burn and fear of influencing minds that means we've won the contest used to put you into someone if you is not enough of a more nationalist round east yes around one hundred forty six million people we're

the you mentioned the chinese proverb the would want peace but the wind doesn't allow for the weather is changing the time will come and the wind will come down to the west of using these beaches its relation is inevitable he will be destroyed and we victims of aggression we like monsters will go to heaven and they will just trust. russophobia and to russian moves they don't because the products that's what everyone always be gives them different moods the question was a discourse i want to end this discussion i need to fly to speculate on and i still want to play hooky on the way there. well i have the form the president spoke about the war in syria russia and turkey are currently enforcing a demilitarized zone in syria's in the province but amir put in said that extremists have failed to meet a deadline to leave the area by monday and turkish forces are currently pushing them back turkey is allied with a group called the national front for liberation whose fighters you can see in

these latest pictures captured on tuesday artie's video agency ruptly spoke with a commander from the allied group. with regard to demilitarize in the buffer zone defense lines remain intact and all soldiers are in position that they have light weaponry on the front line backed up by heavy weapons in the rear so they're able to deter any attacks on the buffer zone agreement is being maintained smoothly without complications. the us president has threatened to severe consequences for saudi arabia if the country is found responsible for the killing of a journalist in istanbul riyadh denies any involvement in the disappearance of jamal khashoggi kushal again meanwhile treasury secretary steven nugent has announced he is pulling out of an investment forum in saudi arabia scheduled for later this month earlier this week secretary of state might pompei a visit to turkey and saudi arabia to discuss the case and after the trip he was asked about an alleged recording that turkey claims to have provoked proving that

the journalist was murdered. i don't have anything to say about that well we know what they could have discussed they could have gotten to the bottom of whether or not jamal khashoggi was indeed killed tortured and then dismembered as the consul watched as reports seem to indicate however it seems that they focused rather on what seemed to be almost perfect about the u.s. saudi relationship we have lots of important relationships and then to relationships between us saudi companies government relationship things we work on together all across the world the efforts to reduce the risk to the united states of america from the world's largest state sponsor of terror ron those are elements of u.s. national policy that are for our in americans best interests. of the country.

you don't treat. it as if you. do. you now my pompei as comments referred to saudi arabia as a purchaser of american goods primarily military hardware and he seemed to talk about saudi arabia as an ally against what he sees as the primary source of evil in the region iran now this is not so much different from what we heard from mike pompei i was boss of the u.s. president so i did arabia has been a very important ally of ours in the middle east and we are stopping the rain and trying to stop was stopping over everyone a big step for we took away that ridiculous deal that was made by the previous administration and they are an ally we have other very good allies in the middle east but if you look at saudi arabia they're an ally of tremendous purchaser donald trump's comments come as there is a huge amount of pressure mounting on the administration in response to outrage

about the shoji incident president trump and. criticizing the condemnation of saudi arabia over the case of missing journalist jamal khashoggi residence stunning statement as three sources tell c.n.n. that a high ranking officer with the saudi intelligence agency oversaw the saudis are now claiming was an interrogation and he wanted to a building a never came out of the building what are we talking about in the building was saudi if could show he's dead said republican senator marco rubio today the u.s. must respond or it risks its own standing the administration assures us that saudi arabia will get to the bottom of what actually took place eventually we're going to give them the space to complete their investigations of this incident when they issue their report before our judgment about their next step in the decision to make about accountability connected to this so the world just needs to sit back and have faith in the kingdom of saudi arabia political commentator john wyden believes

that whatever facts come to light the u.s. will refuse to take any real action against the saudis. the sooty government enjoys an unassailable position of influence when it comes to washington and london and other western allies who grow our eye on saudi arabia to buy their weapons that they sell them by a billion dollars worth on a regular basis and washington is weighted itself to the saudis as part of its axis of germany when it comes to for maintaining germany in the middle east and it has nothing to do with truth and justice is everything to do with geopolitics and the unfortunate events of two places soulsby a few months ago have been used as a p. text to carry out further attacks on russia which has been designated the enemy of the moment in western capitals so this is less to do with truth than justice and everything to do with geopolitics and the drive for

a germany which drives the foreign policy of western capitals. the mayor of the italian city of a lot of a has ordered all migrant families to provide documents on their financial status including property of a on in their home countries failure to comply could result in the loss of social benefits. that's this we're in the same room that we have to stay in the back corner. if there are people who have money how is this or land in their home countries why should we give them services for free while italians before everything enough the gravy train is finished this is not racism it's justice and good sense.

lets you notice what i don't have answers for my son what should i say we as foreigners have to produce these documents. yet one of my classmates said she wants to if he send wish with us. more they're going to build the best if they misunderstood it should be forbidden to impede gratian of kids with others it's a pity for the town children who've lost the opportunity to interact with other cultures so look at the really similar but look i completely agree with the mis decision because all those foreigners have from what is in the countries of origin . because of this and that. the mayor is measure is not unfair it's just because they might have property of broad doesn't mean they're rich here. to me jeannie. maracas another issue could easily give the papers to the consul's i could never

the less kids still have to be respected more than a daughter. a very large majority of migrants actually aren't migrants so they do not follow. right for refugee status and in that case you know most of these children as a result of that come from families who have taken a risk and who have put their families at risk and their children at risk just to take advantage of the system that is really there has been put in place by italian families over generations so it's not about excluding them but asking them to pay to to follow the same laws that apply to italian families it's nothing else than that so if anything it's about equality not discrimination. around sixty thousand taxi drivers have rallied in the south korean capital against the launch
