police. say the full solution. illegibly out a yes ily ily a correspondence he goes down off was at the airport as the president's unfolded.

after midnight the officials have finally decided to come out and update us journalists as to what the latest has been when it comes to this tragedy i mean the most important bit we've heard from the russia's investigative committee confirming the official number of those deceased in the tragedy and that number is forty one and here is the latest as to what the representative of russia's investigative committee had to say have a listen down in miami and the rescue operation has ended and the investigative committees continue to work at the scene of the accident so this is a chairman airport response with plenty of the injured received immediate medical assistance of seventy eight passengers and crew onboard thirty seven survived and forty one have died. now also we've been handed out official lists of those who survived this tragedy in their meat i mean this is what the local like it is

just russian names and the numeration just to give us an idea as to how many made it out alive and the figure is world twenty eight people have been well more or less on harmed judging by this list and at least five people have had to be taken to a hospital to receive medical attention we've heard from russia's health minister is what she said that she was there when it was most of the summer the suffered from burns gas inhalation or other injuries the medical services who responded quickly now we've also heard from the official representative of the floor of the company operating this sukhoi superjet who said that the evacuation was done in well under the probe protocol time that was about fifty five seconds while the protocol time the acceptable time to evacuate all passengers in case of a emergency of this kind is ninety seconds now when it comes to what happened on board here is the understanding of the time line we have. so far the super super

jet operated by air flow it took off from sheremetyevo airport and shortly after that apparently was had by a lightning now we get we're getting this information from at least two sources one attributing an unconfirmed report can attribute in this information to the flight crew and another one we talked to one of the passengers who does seem to recall a white bright flashes that he went out and then apparently the crew decided to make a turn around and landed back at the sheremetyevo airport now apparently event lightning strike sent all the communications systems or flying still the crew had no contact with the ground and this partially explains i mean if this is true this is this partially explains what happened next now mind that all of that was happening thirty to forty minutes after takeoff which means that the fuel tanks of this super

super jets were full and not these not boeing's not era buses they're not designed to allow and did this heavy on fuel so the procedure is to burn out to circle around the city to burn out the excess fuel why they didn't happened probably because the crew was going in blind they had no directions from the ground so the aircraft attempted an emergency landing which turned into a crash landing so the aircraft did hit the tarmac at least twice it did they did plane couldn't land from the first attempt so we'd hoped of from the ground and then wonder back again. this time and that's one apparently the shasta's they went into the fuel tanks and remember plenty of fuel to be caught a blaze and all the pictures of this aircraft running along the tarmac with all of its tail set ablaze now we've heard from some of the witnesses from some of the

people who sought. the tragedy unfold have a listen. to the fire broke out after the plane hit the ground when landing when the plane was in the air i saw a white flash it must have been lightning you know i did all the tragedy in the media and immediately went to the airport hoping to get information about a friend who was on the plane it's very hard for people waiting to hear the fate of their loved ones but everyone is trying to hope for the best but it was quite unexpected we had a flight so you katherine went to the gate a little earlier so as not to be late so we certainly had the window i just turned my head and all of a sudden i saw the burning plane with huge plumes of black smoke as arrived at the scene within two minutes they started fighting the fire they didn't show signs of panic as the plane was too close to those that were waiting on the runways we didn't know it was landing it looked like it was just fifty meters from the nearest aircraft this should be. this plane was landing engulfed in

a terrible fire firefighters were quickly on the scene but i couldn't see being evacuated from where i was in the terminal. so now i am at the share port and if you just look behind me here is the security service the security service of the share major airport but if you just turn around the corner that's where the relatives and the friends of those passengers who were on board of that flight have been gathered and apparently there's like a whole center stablished there are designed to help them cope with what happened today basically emergency ministries. just excuse me psychologists are working with them as of now now when it comes to this airport i mean again take a look behind me it's just the security services and i don't know if you can hear me if you can see them but it's t.v. crews very very few passengers here doesn't look anything like the major.

normally is a major major area of moscow so that's because this right after the tragedy this. was shut down with only one emergency runway left operational so it means that all of the inbound flights to this airport had to be handled handled elsewhere for instance three other russian airports they have been trying to help out and to take some of the load over the sheremetyevo airport but of course they can take all the planes so some of them as we had on speakers the announcements some of them were landed in other russian cities like surat of or petersburg others landed even abroad like in minsk belarus or in helsinki finland so all of that all of that is going on while the mergence the services and are stationed out there we have at least two ambulances still out there outside this terminal ready to

provide. ready to provide their services or to anyone who might require them we've seen motorcades of all sorts of official vehicles from medics student to the investigative committee to the security services of flocking in rolling into this airport all of that while the investigators are still examining the site from what we can understand and just trying to determine the cause of the tragedy lattimer putin has been briefed on this and he's demanded if swift and fair results swift and clear results from this from this investigation all of that while the investigators are working on site and talking to the relatives friends and passengers. suhas superjet one hundred is a short to medium haul passenger airliner the plane involved in this disaster was built in twenty seventeen with capacity for ninety eight passengers its range is up

to four thousand six hundred kilometers one hundred eighty six planes of the same model are currently in service with various airlines and we heard from several aviation experts who gave us their views on the potential causes of the tragic fire at sheremetyevo airport. fire is always the most critical thing that can happen on board an airplane in flight it requires any firefighting to believe the airplane has onboard and a very quick return to land at the airport and in this incident it seems that the pilot a remarkable job to get the airplane back to the airport landing on the runway and with apparently no direction for america to control so imagine the situation in the cockpit they're dealing with an onboard fire failure of their communications capability to air traffic control and then try to return and land safely at the airport or at least on the airport premises. that is about the most difficult

situation i can imagine for those pilots facing that situation on that flight it could have been a much worse situation if they did not make it back to the airport and crashed in the surrounding neighborhood. it would have been complete fatalities onboard that aircraft the good news with landing on on the airport is that they had the full rescue capability of the airport there. deal with the on board fire after landing and that they were able to safely evacuated as many hazards as possible through the escape slides in the forward part of the aircraft though as a tremendous benefits everyone on board. well of course the landing is heavy enough that it would have to really be a very very hard landing the landing gear itself to go through the structure or the fuel is just above it so seriously it could have a fire that the landing gear it collapse and it was literally riding on the back

part of the airplane down the road fire on an airliner is this really one of the worst possible of this for the crew to say no way to fight the materials in the airplane are. largely plastic and fabric and they burn readily even if they're protected in some small way from propagation and so it's an extremely dangerous emergency and requires an immediate return or i will tell you that according to the information again it's very preliminary the pilots had put on what's called a seventy seven hundred one their electronic equipment that's a signal especially of communications are loss that there's an emergency the other thing i noticed looking at the radar was the airplane made a circle purse not to approach a city airport but a circle away from the airport or to lose an altitude the flu or it landed that

tells me there was at least in the crew's mind a very serious a murder siri quire name to get on the ground quickly. this is a myriad of situations you can both engines operating did they have smoke or fire in onboard the aircraft was there. smoke in the cockpit what was the emergency did they have that that's why it's really so critical to be able to listen to the noises the sounds the voice recordings and all the instrumentation parameters and see those parameters through the flight recorder and the flight the voice recorder to see what happened it could be a lot of different things but it's also interesting that apparently they landed on the second approach if there was a fire aboard the aircraft you want to get that airplane on the ground as soon as possible you can play real air. this is all going to be critical how did they

handle that when they trained to handle these types of situations they're going to be the investigated regulatory agencies that are going to be investigating the accident are going to be looking at not only the structure. components of the aircraft the manufacturer. certification of the aircraft but the training of the pilots. well recap of what we're doing so far forty one people have been confirmed dead after a plane burst into flames. here in moscow on sunday evening the passenger plane operated by aeroflot was you to flood to move them on skin the far north of russia for thirty seven confirmed survivors from the flight many of being treated for smoke inhalation injuries investigators have launched a criminal probe into possible safety violations keep you updated on this developing story here naughty international and that auntie don't call.

israel has reached a cease fire with forces in gaza after two days of bloodshed that's according to palestinian media but so far there's been no official confirmation from israel since saturday israeli air strikes have killed twenty three palestinians and four israelis have died in cross border rocket fire. think you see the impact of the windows from the explosion took place from outside the previous flight as a result of the explosion. the

israeli military also claims a prominent hamas leader was killed as the result of an ass strike his car was reportedly hit by rockets and an attack which she also claimed a number of other lives hamas claims the idea for killing two pregnant women and a toddler to live eve however denies those claims and with the sudden escalation of violence between the two states here's what locals from both sides had to say about a flare up. that there was a lot of bombing in the neighborhood to work back to a lot of this street scene was indescribably people were afraid and terrified and run in and everyone was looking for their children nobody was able to see others and after the first truck it hit everyone started screaming children and adults when the building collapsed nobody was able to see one another and you know they learn to leave it to those big of the me to the generals that know the situation to do what they know you know we can do is to cross our fingers and that they will

succeed and i hope we're not call many more we do trust the army we do hope benjamin netanyahu will take care of it but we are really worried from the rockets . moment of rockets from the gaza strip began on saturday morning several residential areas were hit mostly in the south of israel multiple sites in palestine within targeted in retaliatory strikes paula as more details. among the offices that have been hit was the headquarters belonging to the turkish state run media agency now the turkish president added one has slammed the incident and no doubt this will increase tensions between israel and turkey at the same time israel has resumed its policy of targeted assassinations killing the person responsible in the gaza strip for distributing the rainy and funds that are the native to gaza this comes as israel saw on sunday its deadliest day in terms of casualties since the last israel gaza war back in two thousand and fourteen the south of the country

is in a state of high lives businesses and schools will remain closed on monday and ways events have been ordered to remain inside the bomb shelters here in tel aviv where i am with the some eighty kilometers to the north the municipality has open public bomb shelters and this comes as hamas creighton's that if israel doesn't stop what it says is its aggression it will target tel aviv in the coming hours now we do expect to see some kind of mediation efforts conducted by egypt in the coming hours this comes as israel stops all fuel supplies to the gaza strip now this will have a diary flicked on electricity inside the gaza don't forget that on monday morning the holy month of ramadan begins and for gazans this is reminiscent of the last gaza wall which saw a large pot of the wall happening during the month of ramadan on sunday night an israeli security cabinet meeting wrapped up with the israeli prime minister

benjamin netanyahu telling the i.d.f. soldiers to keep upping their attacks. this morning i instructed the i.d.f. to continue its in terms of turning against terror targets in the gaza strip and to expand its presence surrounding the gaza strip with forces artillery and troops we are operating and we will continue to do so to restore peace and security to resit . in the south of the country and all of this common aids on the fourteenth of may with the us vision song faced a full way some twenty thousand tourists are expected to of wives in the country the festival will be held here in tel aviv so every very very tense situation here on both sides of the border coming as the united nations envoy to the region urges calm and calls on both sides to may down. i condemn the continuing to give look at from gaza enough palestinian israeli lives have been lost people injured houses damaged and destroyed it is time to deescalate and return to the understanding is

that the past few months before it's too late journalists rami oh my guardian political analyst mitchell barak gave us their views on the latest escalation between israel and gaza. re civilian casualty is certainly a tragedy but the state of israel has to protect its citizens and has to protect its borders and for that some very very serious measures are being taken against the military infrastructure in gaza so they keep testing israel along the way how many rockets can they fire how many civilian israelis can be killed before israel does something but israel has fully clean hands in this endeavor and will continue to pummel gaza hopefully no civilians will be killed in the process but israel is protecting its population this is something that is. intensely and rapidly in the region who the time being and this could in large into

a larger scale. attack by israel is and intensity of will be seen between the two sides but you know is that israeli israeli air strikes and israeli attacks on the gaza strip have been used to be march more intense much more brutal a much more russell is against the palestinians israel has the most sophisticated army and the world the more sophisticated weaponry pinpoint attacks being carried out by israel for the time being and israel uses very sophisticated technology military technology to attack palestinians the casualties among palestinians are very high and the palestinians are paying a very high price for the restrikes an israeli tank shelling against gaza that is ongoing so there is some kind of this proportionate disproportionate.

scale there's a proportionate scale of attacks by palestinians and israel as. a monitor of use. a tragedy at russia's largest airports where forty one people have been confirmed killed after a plane caught fire on the runway at moscow sheremetyevo there were seventy eight people on board the jet burst into flames you're going to merge and landing just half hour after takeoff morning the following footage of the fire is the stressing .

it feel. the feel. like it down yet. you saw a super jet plane operated well aeroflot was due to fly to move a month skin on the far north of russia soon after takeoff though the crew sent a distress signal the plane's replied return to their automate a hard landing striking the runway several times the fuel tank burst into flames on the entire rear section was destroyed there are thirty seven confirmed survivors many of whom are being treated for burns and smoke inhalation injuries keep you updated on this developing story here not international and at r.t.

dot com. so look for myself on the team for tonight and they are today will be with you in just thirty minutes time to guide you through the current global news top headline . what politicians do something to. put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president i'm sure. or somehow want to be rich. but you'd like to be close to see what the forty three in the morning can't be careful i'm interested always in the waters in the hollow. there should

be. after the previous stage of my career was over everyone wondered what i was going to do next the ball different clubs on one hand it is logical to say the home fields where everything is familiar on the other i wanted a new challenge and the fresh perspective from time used to surprising to most of us all or not to give you the. i'm going to talk about football not for you or else you can think i was going to go. by the way ways of that slide here. on film begins in hawaii in the middle of the pacific ocean in spite of the

island's remote location it is also for women victims to the epidemic of the twenty first century plastic. the. plastic pollution is littering beaches and endangering certain species of animals no. matter how remote or out of reach. in this elaborate tree in the north of the occupation ago scientists study marine animals not plastic at least in theory. no idea what that is. but it's certainly plastic. and jessica perelman is a biologist accustomed to finding plastic in fish stomachs she has started a very unique collection. casually often plastic bags and this was all

coiled up in the stomach when i found it had no idea what it wasn't all that it just. how did you react when this installment i was shocked i started you know documenting it measuring it taking photos showing whoever else was around in the lab and we were kind of. we were just there shocked to think that these fish are are really ingesting this i mean. so how disbelief the scientist has found plastic in the unlikely specimen known as the long fish. the young researcher was not expecting such a surprising discovery when she began this piece is. fish lives at a depth of about two hundred to four hundred meters and they're clearly coming in

contact with plastic and it appears that plastic is is truly a deeper problem that we might have imagined. even swimming at these depths the long sit fish manages to swallow trivial plastic objects and i mean occasionally you might find a brand name such as this. bottle label. what is this so this is a label from a water bottle. and found amongst the. design design is a pretty well known. bottled water company. you know finding finding a label such as this in the stomachs makes it that easy to determine where you know where it may have originated. this is always more to things than just. just want to look. in front sunny is

one of the world's best selling brands. and if you're not familiar with you will certainly know the name of the group behind it the coca-cola company. everyone knows coca-cola but not everyone necessarily knows that the group is in china. dozens of other brands just sunny as part of the coca-cola company and sprite two there is also minute maid powerade and of course from one of the company's flagship brands. every year the group sells more than one hundred twenty billion bottles across the globe that's almost one thousand bottles a second and this mass production is creating a devastating map.
