a massive challenge to convince a hostile public in parliament back home that it is the best way for. another new russian military experts say toxic substances were used in an assault on aleppo in syria on saturday we look at why the world's media is largely ignored this chemical attack. very good evening to you and welcome this is r.t. international. the u.n. security council is right now holding the second of two emergency sessions over the clash between russia and ukraine this comes just hours after the ukrainian president declared martial law to quote protect the country against russian aggression this is after russia detained three ukrainian navy ships off the coast of crimea. and also says that the vessels illegally entered its territorial waters

in the strait ignoring orders from the border. following this developing story for us our correspondents kaleb opens in new york as the of his in the city of come to you first caleb we understand the security council meeting is still ongoing what has been said up until now. while the meeting of the fifteen member body that leads the united nations began with an agenda item there was objections to this agenda item by the united states now and obviously at that point then with the security council member not voting for it at that point the agenda was rejected but before the first meeting ended before the first meeting concluded we did hear from the representative of the russian federation who described his analysis over all of the incident involving three russian naval

vessels armed i'm sorry three ukrainian naval vessels he argued essentially this is related to the internal situation in ukraine and the upcoming elections and this is the russian representative or. person person goes ratings are extremely low with the elections not so far away so how do you hold onto power whose team really needs a serious exacerbation of the situation in a war the necessary next portion of the drug so that people in the country believe that all their troubles to russia. now because the first agenda item was rejected the first meeting was then adjourned however a second meeting under a differently phrased agenda item has begun we have so far heard from the united states as well as from the united kingdom so the meeting continues in the un security council chamber here in new york. ok many thanks kelly moore pinned in new york let's head over now to the of his in crimea for the ukrainian president we've

heard has declared martial law it sounds scary what exactly will that mean the reality for the country. well it's important to understand the stage the circumstances the situation in ukraine now it isn't pretty so surely there are thousands of people tend thousands out protesting over ukraine whether it's new tariffs imposed by the president whether it's lack of heating in subzero temperatures even in the capital kiev lack of hot water that's been you know that's been happening that's been. on for half a year now so there's a lot of anger in ukraine lack of reforms and all out so critics his critics miss the critics have said that he is now implementing martial law in order to undermine criticism in order to staunch this wave of criticism this is these

protests because martial law will be a huge advantage to the government because they'll be able to outlaw protests any protest against the government outlaw due to magically under martial law furthermore for example newspapers various media outlets news channels a sense that the government has the right to censor them because there is that there is supposed to be new criticism of the government for the duration of martial law due to a barrier of criticism inside you create perhaps because of that mr parr has said that the length of this martial law is being reduced from sixty days to thirty days nevertheless that's still a huge length of time especially if you consider that elections for a just four months away so a month of that will have new criticism of mr poroshenko at all if they don't prolong this martial law. as they say they won't now but that they you know it's

the russian aggression factor won't go away it hasn't gone away for four years in the ukrainian press little go away in a month nevertheless missed the. has been busy over the last day or so he's been calling on all the support that he can potentially count on for example he's called together the u.n. security council meetings called together the ukraine nato council the as well as the normandy for that's germany france russia and ukraine the minsk agreement backers to condemn russia's actions so far great britain has condemned russia's actions nato has called on russia to immediately release the seize the vessels of the three vessels that are here impounded in kutch as well as the two dozen sailors that have been arrested ukrainian sailors as i say it all happened here in qatar earlier today we managed to film the vessels themselves impounded off the

yesterday's desperate chase. russia remains adamant that ukraine violated international law specifically the un convention of one thousand nine hundred eighty two when the law of the sea which prohibits navigation through territorial waters in this case the waters surrounding

the strip the strait of. when the area is restricted when territorial waters are restricted at all of the times navigation ease is allowed so any third country. third party country can freely travel through the territorial waters of any other country unless those territorial waters a temporary lockdown which they were yesterday the ukrainians knew that they filed no request or notification that they were going to pass through this street indeed we saw footage of the desperate as i said that was happening and it was dangerous maneuvers carried out by the ukrainian vessels in very close proximity to the tank is the merchantmen the waiting to go through the streets of kutch under the kurds bridge which is a very narrow passage eventually of course and did the strait of kurds was opened up and marine traffic commenced the but was it was a desperate desperate chase and russia said that it had no choice but to employ

live weapons live ammunition to hold these ukrainian ukrainian vessels ukraine on its part insists that it did fall notification that has previously done so it says that russia acted to provoke ukraine that this was an act of war and military aggression against ukraine and also demands the release of its vessels and personnel many thanks correspondent i guess they have reporting from catch in crimea and earlier we heard from our correspondent kelli more pain following the u.n. security council meeting in new york. who. is that actions taken by ukraine could help to boost ratings. based on president a situation with ukraine declaring martial law my country member or any other case where they actually did that we must look at this really from really a ryall politic point of view russia is the much stronger state it's in control of

these waters which controls the code straight and ukraine really has to abide by russian law even though they may not accept it but the difficulty for ukraine is of course is what you then do president persia goes now declared martial law which is quite an extraordinary step to take it will boost his rating because he will come out as a savior of the nation he will say i'm here on the president i'm here to defend ukraine and support me but of course he will not want war he will not want to conflict the russians would win very easily because of much much stronger and present pressure and you know that every. so they don't want a military conflict they just want a conflict which will in fact increase the standing of the president and increase the standing of ukraine from the russian polish they are acting they would say according to international maritime law and according to russian law and they were perfectly entitled to do what they did the un security council will debated and

probably probably call on both sides to cool it and to understand that this is a very very dangerous situation and could in school it to a situation where there is really no going back because of one side it takes the other then the other side will respond and therefore cool heads are needed here. the opinion has given its rubber stamp to the brig's it divorce still reached with the british prime minister to resign may the east top brass has made it clear the terms are non-negotiable threes and i insist it's a good deal for the k. the deal we have agreed today unlocks a bright future for the u.k. m.p.'s will vote on this deal it will be one of the most significant votes that parliament has held for many years on it will depend whether we move forward together into a brighter future or open the door to yet more division and uncertainty well she

spoke about the door to division it is already appears to be open with may's deal now facing its biggest hurdle approval by a hugely hostile parliament anything is technically still on the cards from agreement on the deal a no deal briggs's even perhaps another referendum aunties and looks at the possible outcomes. i have heard the european commission president have a separate message for m.p.'s telling them that the deal that has been agreed upon is the only deal possible this is the best. of which is just a burst of push button for europe this is the only post however whether or not this message is going to be heard by m.p.'s here back in london is the big question many of them have been disapproving of to recent mazed take on bracks it and they don't want to support the deal that has been put in front of them.

over speaking just for fun but mine political declaration represents a huge and damaging failure been. we've negotiated a good agreement the person lives our interests and. is five hundred eighty five pages over testament to broken promises failed to go see asians and abject capitulation to the e.u. . if you. put this is this has been really a very successful and ever in a difficult situation isn't it the regrettable but inescapable reality that this deal gets even more away as you go in the political climate continues to be good there's mutual trust you are not delivering the brakes it people voted for.

we will remain friends of those ghent over days. thanks. so here back at home opinion certainly don't seem to be interested means we've heard during the last several weeks there have been plenty of talk of a possible. vote of no confidence and that continues to be a possibility here in westminster we have seen several high profile figures resign from their posts in defiance of theresa means handling of practice it the public here in the u.k. has certainly been meeting quite a bit of reassurance i think what will happen is they will be disagreement we won't get to a majority and there will be. no deal parts of the deal goes ahead it's favor difficult to come out of it for an unforeseen future so it so on certain but it might even be better just to stay here as we say rather than have to steal it's possibly the best deal we can get which is worse than. voted of i wish we could

stay in given all of the political turmoil that has been and will it looks like continue to be unraveling reporting from london and stacy churkin am for r.t. . radio host journalist john gold things that reason my face is an impossible task getting parliament's approval i'm afraid when this come back comes back to the commons i think she's got a very old bill should go i mean we know today from ali foster from the e.u. bakes they're not going to back it so that's the ten vote vote that keeps the trees the main power of the moment out of the window jamie coburn today has said labor will not trade torres direction remain as well as in the commons will reject it as he should have no choice them but to resign this isn't the breaks that we voted for no matter which side you're on and show duration mary she's got any

possible task she's going to fail in my view. so to come for you this russian that chemical experts have confirmed an attack carried out on saturday night on the syrian city of aleppo involved toxic substances we'll bring you all the details and more news after the break. you know world big partisan lot and conspiracy it's time to wake up to dig deeper to hit the stories that made history media refuses to tell more than ever we need to be smarter we need to stop slamming the door. and shouting past each other it's time for critical thinking it's time to fight for the middle for the truth the time is now we're watching closely watching the hawks.

and the see underlying circumstances that's a loud for these emergency of this very very event violence. i think that we may get the sons and even grandsons of guys at some point in the future it's primarily a political issue in iraq that has taken minutes we. are on the for cations. welcome back russian chemical experts have confirmed to the attack carried out on saturday night on the syrian city of aleppo involved toxic substances dozens of victims remain in hospital some of them in a critical condition. it feels like something is burning inside and my eyes are

hurting. the homs it could be in the morning at breakfast i looked at homs and realized that there's something wrong with him he said that he had a stomach ache so i took him back to the hospital. but the case is drawing far less attention in the international media than previous chemical attacks it has done of takes a look at the reasons why. a hospital rush oxygen masks scared and confused children pictures of an aftermath of an alleged chemical attack in hunchy who last year instantly became a catalyst for a media big bang these graphic images posted online by activists and people who live in the area killed victims many of them children struggling to breathe and children foaming at the mouth. suffering convulsions being carried in the arms of desperate parents the gag on the gasp and the frantic efforts to see

lives these images from it with syria range world leaders on tuesday at the united nations calls for information and accountability in what diplomats said could be a war crime the russian government is denying any involvement in a suspected chemical attack in syria that has a lot of dozens of people dead including many children this comes after witnesses said they saw people collapsing to the ground this time reports of a chlorine attack in aleppo. so an emergency check ambulance sirens check anxiety and uncertainty in children's eyes check media reaction was this russia has accused syrian rebel fighters of firing shells filled with chlorine gas into the city of aleppo syria and russia accused opposition fighters of carrying out a toxic gas attack so hold on what. what happened there where as outreach workers

this carousel of condemnation and shaming by the world's most powerful like the united states we believe it is highly likely that attack was carried out by the assad regime. it looks a lot like this attack was done by the side regime that is truly an evil person this is an animal well the difference is aleppo is under the control of the syrian government has been for years now slowly but surely clearing out its streets of rubble trying to piece back together normality the chances that animal assad gave orders to slaughter the innocent is let's say slim hence it's worth a mention maybe but not much more i want to read to read here is that france does condemned the use of chemical weapons whatever. the uses are they don't care because the tigers coming from the wrong side as it were if you check

the mainstream media coverage globally it's a nonevent if you also check the so-called opposition media in syria of course they are saying that well that it could be a plot by the regime no surprise there before how easy and convenient in two wars to instantly pin the blame on the baddest of the bad guys now when the alleged hit potentially just potentially could be ordered by your former allies or you had given out millions of dollars worth of aid yeah let's not rush to any conclusions according to the russian defense ministry dozens of people including children were taken to hospital following the aleppo attack he says the nighttime assault was carried out from an area controlled by an al qaeda linked group in neighboring province commanders denied any involvement and says they don't even have chemical

weapons. nevertheless syria's foreign ministry is calling on the un to condemn and punish the militants involved in is sold as well as countries that arm and finance them we spoke to p.l.o. core french activist in aleppo who told us about the aftermath of the attack. now knows where. we thought a lot of people until seeing and people spoke aging it's pretty bad people coming from everywhere. every day the situation is still really bad so that it has still receiving rockets still receiving moles or explosives that lets people today. it's not the first time that we can recall with them they used during the battle for the project that we just same kind of weapons basically it's really hard to imagine that everything is going to start again that everything is going to happen again in the same way with if the worse until now and we are ready for whatever is going to the. u.k. government funded organization which influences political and public opinion about

alleged maligned russian activities has reacted to a recent leak of documents that show it was posted online by the hacker group anonymous last week it prompted the integrity initiative to issue a statement on the boy explains. the integrity initiative has finally replied it's taken them a while because r.t. first spoke about this story last week but regionally these documents were leaked at the start of the month and the statement talks about the organization itself that it's an international public program that was set up back in twenty fifteen in order to counter disinfo mation and malign influence and also the fact that it's funded by the u.k. foreign office or at least it has been for the past two years before that its money came from private grants and in relation to the leaked documents specific case the group said that it's a matter of deep regret that they were stolen take a listen to what they had to say in more detail we've not yet had the chance to

analyze all of the documents so cannot say with confidence whether they were all genuine whether they include doctored or false material though it is clear that much of the material is dated and was never used so you can see the great dish. syncing itself from the leak don't commence that they're saying they're not sure if they're genuine they haven't had time to verify whether they're all real and they also point out that a lot of the documents contain sensitive contact details some of people that they were actually considering getting in touch with but hadn't got in touch with the now faced with the headache of contacting these people and explaining about this data breach even though they've had essentially nothing to do with the group so clearly not very happy about this leak and just to refresh your memory in regards to the original story the hack documents have pared through the anonymous hacking website they got their hands on this trove of classified documents that they say

proves that the u.k. foreign office is funding this sort of anti russia campaign and as we saw in the statement that the group says that its sole purpose is to counter this information and as a result inevitably that means dealing with a lot of stuff to do with russia where they claim a lot of dissent from ation comes from and just to give you an example of the sort of campaigns that the group. conducts according to these leaked documents you may have heard allegations the russia has was meddling in the catalonian independence referendum for example well that story may have been helped along by integrity initiative by this group how well a journalist afa lated to the group originally posted that story after that other mainstream media organizations started talking about it as well so that

for you is how the system appears to be working that is just one example and of course it's all conducted under the banner of. of saving democratic institutions preventing the spread of dissent from ation and fighting the good fight. existing without international joins me for updates in half an hour. i. am.
