misuse it almost over stores in the school if they could get their hands on them twenty four hours. we were each of these kids about racism about police brutality taking pride in them there are. all a part of the story. breaking news mass shootings at two mosques in christchurch new zealand forty nine people killed and thirty nine injured many of the survivors are in critical condition. doing. them simple margaret oh margaret it's what happened to me no it was. people and everybody just running to the back doors just to save themselves. four suspects are now in custody one of them is an australian national report live

streamed the attack over facebook and the post right before the massacre he said he'd been planning it for two years. and other news this hour in the u.k. parliament votes to seek that deadline extension from the e.u. though brussels has indicated little appetite for further talks. and the israel defense forces claim they have hit around one hundred hamas linked targets in gaza overnight in response to rockets launched from gaza television. you're watching r.t. international bring you your live news update from our studio here in moscow welcome to the program. mass shootings at two mosques in christ church new zealand have killed forty nine people and injured thirty nine more the number of dead was confirmed by the country's police commissioner he also confirmed four suspects were

now in custody one of them a male in his late twenty's has been charged with murder and will appear in court tomorrow here's a recap of what happened. they're probably just trying to cover the bad calls just to show themselves you good is sad but you go one by one if you feel it and some people that it was didn't leave people. in the main they're all moved on right inside it would be plus people some of them would be some of them were screaming bloody stupid monument blushing money and absent on my blog or my blog when i happen to know. this is one of new zealand's darkest days earlier i discussed the tragedy with my

colleague. well some four dozen victims in this mass shooting really put this tragedy next to the list of some of the worst such disasters in the history of the world and who could have known that something like that could happen in new zealand in christ church which isn't even the biggest city of this country it's not the capitol i can tell you that it took police commissioner mike bush sorry several hours to say that at least one man has been charged with murder and he will appear in court on saturday however his press conference left quite a few questions unanswered for example mr bush still can not confirm the number of offenders you were there at. least. i'm aware of that suggestion

which we're working through at the moment when i have absolute clarity about. all the sharing that we never assume that there are other people involved that's why we've got millions prisons. across canterbury and right across new zealand we don't have nine or identified people that we're looking for but it would be wrong to assume that there is no one else so police caught the offender rather quickly and they have received credit for that although it is absolutely astonishing how no agency both. were aware of any of the perpetrators or their preparations before hand earlier we also heard from the prime minister of new zealand and she had something very emotional to say about why our country fell victim to terrorism. we new zealand. we were not

a target because we are. those who fight. we were not true isn't for the sake of violence because we. can darn right system because we are in on clay for extremism . we would chosen for the very fact that we are none of these things because we repress the entire city kindness compassion hard for those who share our values. for those who need it and various values i can assure you will not and cannot be shaken by this attack you my have chosen. that we actually reject and can deem. so to thumbprint attacks within minutes of each other occurring there are several suspects in custody how much planning and coordination does this suggest then the officials are being very careful when they're talking about this but we heard from

the prime minister during that same press conference they believe there is definitely a certain degree of planning behind this but when we look at this in general when we hear from local journalists when we hear from witnesses it's becoming more and more obvious that there was plenty of card nation and planning put into this i mean to massacres almost simultaneous in two separate mosques firearms being followed in two different locations improvised explosive devices in an if you look at the a social network accounts of these supposed terrorists they show at least two years of preparation one of the posts contain pictures of parts of the actual he supposedly used and there you can see the names of christians who fought against muslims during wars centuries ago so clearly he was on a mission to kill as many muslim believers as possible and he wanted to have an

audience for that because reportedly even lined stream. what he was doing on facebook exactly and the disturbing video of one of the attacks from the shooter's point of view has already been circled circulating on the internet what exactly does it show we are not going to show you the video we can show you some of the screen shot and it has been a real dilemma for us what to do with this because we want to bring you the news but it's not just disturbing it's more than disturbing everything's asserting about this i will tell you something about the video it is it doesn't feel like it's real it looks like it's something from a video game the camera was attached either to the face or to somewhere probably the neck and you can see the actual gun you can see people fall and then people running away falling the man was clearly trying to head to shoot at anyone he sees and that mosque and that is just something durable because he's quite pacey he

was one of all the rooms there and there was no longer a crowd there people were just trying to escape. and it's very difficult to describe what you seeing that video it's really horrendous perhaps i'm going to stop there a video of the aftermath of the attack has appeared on twitter a warning you might find the following video disturbing. to the. local journalist david killick reports from christchurch with the latest. forty nine confirmed people who were killed in the two mosques attacks this afternoon local time earlier on we had cordoned sebree where police were advising people to stay at home to go out there and the central city was on the lockdown that wasn't just christchurch the other cities around new zealand where there was concern that

might be more attacks that was not of interest so if. they were also a couple of explosive devices that the police found and apparently defused so bit thrifts is now finished for now as far as we can tell our guest gave us their analysis of the situation if he attacks in a mosque one report said he was light skinned so one presumes that he wasn't a muslim himself. throw a presumes the assumption would be i think that it is a terrorist attack that somebody has been doing it for political religious a mixture of reasons or compounded by some sort of drain. but a terrorist attack i think is the obvious assumption of this stage there will be this huge psychological and political damage this is chosen as the first time this has happened a religious shooting of this sort as happened in new zealand we've had in

a mask that's before people did range people but this is the first time a mosque has been attacked. and so the implications of that are really very very serious you know in new zealand. in a sense is coming into the twenty first century. the timing of it doesn't seem to be related to anything the new zealand to to cutely because this at least the gunmen who they have a wrist at the moment is not the new zealand but just someone who chose new zealand as a kind of a soft place he would go and make his political point and connect his violence so i don't think this is got very much to do with the timing in new zealand this is about the more to do with the pseuds of. of right wing racist behavior in other countries we've had many years of

heightened anti terrorist activity in our country but there's always been looking towards the muslim community not for protecting them and i hope this will cause quite a lot of soul searching amongst us security people that the people they've been spying on and worrying about would end up being the victims and they failed to stop . israel bombed around one hundred hamas linked targets in gaza overnight the i.d.f. says it targets included headquarters he is for the planning and execution of terror attacks the air raids were conducted in response to rockets fired at tel aviv from gaza hamas has denied that it was behind the rocket attacks we spoke with journalist on both sides of the border. in a lot of statements issued by different political political leaders harry knees royal. particularly can look at some of the. most prominent he

does one being many guns who is a serious contender for the upcoming elections among other things he says that it is time that israel and the hamas leaders but also other political leaders saying that they expect out of prime minister benjamin netanyahu a very serious response given what happened last night that's why the president of the scariest now. most frightening night for this is only in the gaza strip as the israeli military carried on airstrikes in the entire gaza strip doesn't stray his health has reported that four civilians have suffered burns and injuries as a result of the airstrikes that happened last night told the palestinian factions have denied any involvement with the escalation that happened last night the night before last night hamas said that it's looking into the shooting voting to take measures against those responsible for it. earlier my colleague neil harvey

spoke to is really education minister enough tony bennett and got his reaction to this latest incident. we cannot accept this. rocket fire on our homes here in tel aviv and down in the negev we left the gaza strip about thirteen years ago now and. the moment we left they've been shooting rockets at us so we will not give up any more land it just doesn't make sense when we had learned over to the arabs they turned it into a radical islamic terrorist state and now it's time to fight back to the state and we will the u.n. says that. palestinian civilians were shot by israeli forces so are you surprised that there is an aggressive. response coming from palestinians who have the right of self-defense and they do not accept any sort of preach from folks on the other

side of the world when we're being shot rockets from a piece of territory that we handed over to the arabs what i can say is that we won't do that again at least no one's trying to preach i don't think everybody understands no matter what the grasp of the situation in the middle east is that the violence the cycle of violence continues and the begats more aggression. how is you know the what you're suggesting going to improve the situation we left gaza we want peace the moment they stop shooting missiles at my children's. home and kindergarten is the moment there will be peace we have no territorial demand over gaza and they just need to stop it if they stop it there will be peace that's very simple. we break down the latest developments after this short break.

you know world a big part of. law and conspiracy it's time to wake up to dig deeper to hit the stories that mainstream media refuses to tell more than ever we need to be smart we need to stop slamming the door on the 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 for watching closely watching the hawks. for essays nonsense ideological scare crow rush is a real neighbor was whom we'll have to leave the old ways of being in nato e.u. or wherever and it's you know we're interested go to russia too cold for russians

and to understand that. welcome back to the program that is heading for yet a nother cliffhanger after british m.p.'s voted to delay the u.k.'s departure from the european union the british prime minister will now return to brussels and seek an extension to the brics that deadline was just two weeks before the currently scheduled exit date frustration is building and westminster. we are like a circle in a spiral like a wheel within a wheel never ending or beginning on an ever spinning real it's just going on and on and on now we're told that the way that we can avoid any delay is to support the deal that the government has concluded with the european union yet this house as my

own girlfriend has just mentioned has twice rejected that deal most recently only two days ago the deal is dead it cannot be resurrected by his her deal and no deal a simply no longer viable option it isn't just the prime minister let down by. the countries being misled and now the plan has been mislaid she has bludgeoned us black and blue with a brain food deal on her robotic manager of it's my deal or no deal this is a waste of time and a waste of time for our chamber and that should not be happening what we should be to is thinking am asking now a way forward and a life full weight is to extend article fifteen british people are sick in the spirit so that most people in this house are a third so-called meaningful vote on teresa mayes breaks a deal will take place next week if m.p.'s reject it she wants brussels for

a long deadline extension potentially lasting years depending on the reaction back home that could trigger a general election or a second referendum but if m.p.'s past made a deal last brussels for a shorter extension until june thirtieth if no extension is granted or no deal agreed and whatever timeframe is adopted the u.k. could crash out of the box with no deal and associates looks at the latest developments in westminster. it's been a very hectic week here in parliament with a series of votes meant to eliminate certain possibilities of what bracks it might end up looking like if you recall just on tuesday nights we saw m.p.'s reject to resubmit bracks a deal that she painstakingly stating we negotiated with brussels reject that for the second time around then on wednesday night we saw a big new to the possibility of a new deal bracks it which of course still didn't take that option off the table

however are no thursday nights the last of a series of crucial votes at least for now where m.p.'s got together to vote on a possible extension of the bracks a deadline the original bragg's a deadline now march twenty ninth as many as four hundred twelve m.p.'s said yes to extending the deadline two hundred two said no that's a majority of two hundred ten votes so certainly quite a considerable margin that indicates if there's anything the house of commons can agree on at this point it's that they're not ready for bracks it to take place at the agreed deadline of march twenty ninth now the big question is to recently has to get energized yet again find her way back to brussels and try to get an extension agreement from members of the european union so what is this extension going to be used for is the big question and that's an answer that certainly brussels wants to hear from the u.k.

but also that's an answer that teresa mayes going to have to find before she tries to get back into any kinds of negotiations or talks or whatever you want to call it attempts to try to figure out what happens with all of this next we mustn't get carried away with the idea that this was a great victory for the prime minister and the government and it's it's my. as to delay exit by four hundred twelve to two hundred two this was a defeat and it can't be dressed as a victory remember we must first be leaving on the twenty ninth of march and when no where near that even if let's say by some political miracle she wins next week at the time of asking. the truth of the matter is west still going to need an extension because we don't have the domestic legislation in place to be able to leave in a in a reasonable way. prentiss police response to the countries that yellow vest

protest is putting through the liberties under threat that's according to a french human rights watchdog r.t.s. paul flare has more. rubber bullets tear gas on the vehicles the way the president mccraw and has responded to the mass anger of the yellow vests movement has sparked widespread condemnation. in france along with the decline of public services a policy of strength and security and repression has taken root in the face of the terrorist threat social troubles and fears about an immigration crisis that has the country's human rights on but simon in his annual report shocked to borne the says that the number of people of wasted is unprecedented. i.

and some of the weapons used to disperse the crowd should be prohibited over the course of the protests thousands of people were injured some lost they are as others had the heads blown off or the i don't know oh. policeman sturdy to shoot to help the firefighters to get through and it was delicious thing that i remember because actually that is athel and a grenade hit my head. i. was. now let's see who lost an eye for the government is completely blind even with the video footage they can't accept responsibility for what is happening. but the french government rejects the claims saying the police officers will fertik to themselves you have to ask a simple question do our security forces have the right to defend themselves in the face of the ultraviolence of some demonstrators both the united nations and council

of us have criticised the excessive force of mccombs response we encourage the government to continue dialogue and urged. investigation of all reported cases of assessing use of force the heavy handed way the president quelled at the protests and dealt with public anger continues to haunt him policia r t terrorists. the head of u.s. special operations in africa has admitted that washington and its allies are not winning the war on terror in the region and one country in particular is paying the price as artie's dollar quarter reports. you've heard about the u.s. is adventures in afghanistan iraq libya syria but maybe you didn't know washington's also got involved in the west african country of burkean faso and well it's not going so great i would tell you it's time we are not winning well he seems more optimistic than some of his allies what we fight against received every day is

like a took a don't know with the terrorists won from us for years washington has been fighting that terrorist toxin in burkina faso and like afghanistan terrorist groups in the country are only becoming more active isilon al qaeda splinter groups conducted one hundred thirty seven attacks last year three years ago it was only twelve as a result tens of thousands of people have fled their homes and over a million require aid the un is calling it a humanitarian emergency and the government knows it has a problem so far the consequences are terrible schools and health clinics are closed people have fled it's become a no man's land washington solution has been military presence and money france has also brought armed forces into its former colony its air strikes regularly act on behalf of the government to deal with militant attacks you so much will do and gives you today we are militarily engaged in the whole region through the border come force it's our responsibility to do it because these are friendly countries

and because we are all targeted by terrorism which creates a common cause in which we are today deeply engaged there stay in the country hasn't exactly treated the french well though last year the embassy was attacked by militants. but human rights groups are saying the government's crackdown on terrorists is fueling the hate extrajudicial killings abuse of suspects in custody and arbitrary arrests to name a few the growing. and security in birkenau fastow has led to terrible crimes by both armed islamists and state security forces but in a false has been taken over by militants the country itself has suffered immensely the government has not been able to meet top its obligation in or in interest of its own citizens instability in the country in general with many soldiers who were once supporting the government now many have taken arms many are in the bush many

on account for many have even joined al qaeda the government clearly has already put their hands up to say that and not fit not able to contain al-qaeda has decided to increase its attacks against booking afonso simply because it wants to make a statement to the united states that it can take the fight to them so as the united states' involvement in the book in a faster saga has increased so have the attacks. that's a news wrap up for now but i'll be back at the top of the hour with the latest thanks for tuning it. would normally just manufacture consent to instant to the public well. when the room in clusters and protect themselves. in the final

merry go round of lives only the one percent so. we can all middle of the room signals. mean real news for. the braggs it saga continues a deeply divided british house of commons can only seem to agree on one thing it doesn't want the u.k. to leave the e.u. without a deal the problem is there isn't a parliamentary majority on what to do next maybe this was to resumes play and all along breaks again leadership. this is is a sticker from the water bottle phone in the stomach of the fish the brand is part of the coca-cola company which sells millions of bottles of soda every day the idea

was that let's tell consumers there are the bad was there the litter bugs are throwing this away industry should be blamed for all this waste the company has long promised to reuse the plastic. it's difficult. to manage as soon as school sets their classes to seek a court. date on your phones at a special projects funded we tell the difference and follow up on the new best that is the end of it for the team but for now the mountains of waste only grow higher. will trump pardon his former campaign chair and wouldn't pay includes a price that would be his base to take a look at that on this edition of. the politicking on larry king on wednesday donald trump's former campaign manager paul

man of fort learned his fate on his federal convictions immediately after began the speculation about whether the president will pardon him but how would issuing a pardon affect his popularity with his base and what role would it play in his twenty twenty reelection bid we will talk about that with rick wilson g.o.p. political consultant his number one best seller everything trump touches dies and a republican strategist gets real about the worst president ever is now out in paperback and he joins us from tallahassee the capital of florida if you want syriac should read to the sentencing a man of forty. well larry i think what happened yesterday with paul metaphor it was a shock to very few people he got a very light sentence in the in the virginia case judge berman issued

a sentence that stretches that out to make it so that paul metaphorically was jailed about the age of seventy eight he was also hit yesterday with additional charges out of new york for felony mortgage fraud related to some of his other activities in this whole shenanigans so paul manifolds looking at a very bad set of outcomes and in and right now even a federal pardon is not going to change the structure in the state of new york that now face him. the egg says cia director john byrne fan of mr trump says he has no doubt the president will pardon him do you feel that way. i think i think that. mr brennan may be mistaken in this regard donald trump doesn't really have a lot of will to the people who aren't useful to help at this point now that paul man of fort faces. thirteen charges in new york against him of the for the manhattan district attorney you know there is no reason for donald trump.
