i don't know which question. to leave so many. among the stories now and shape the week. 2 russian pilots pull off an expert's emergency landing to save their. lives for their plane suffers a double engine failure during takeoff. medical examiner the death of the disgraced financier geoffrey epstein was a result of suicides but tycoons lawyers though say they're not satisfied with the conclusion intend to carry out their own investigation. the islamic state terrorist group say it is behind a suicide wedding ceremony in the capital which left 63 people dead and close to 200 more wounded.

with the top stories from the past 7 days on right up to the moment of elements this is the weekly an international hello and welcome. to russian pilots made aviation history on thursday morning after pulling off what's been described as a miraculous emergency landing there crimea. twin engine failure after striking a flock of birds while taking off from moscow as you call port but against the odds they were able to bring it down safely in a nearby field saving the lives of everyone on board this was the scene as people left the plane. i don't already have a. look at the tissue to live.

on. the pilots all flying to use $617800.00 just moments to react to the bird strike verts impending disaster they decided to run the plane on its belly in the cornfield without deploying either landing gear or dumping fuel either the video was taken here from inside here that accelerated along the runway to see goals that were sucked into the engines can be seen ever so fleetingly through the window 226 passengers and 7 crew were on board with more on thursday is remarkable events hears from the culture of. 226 passengers and 7 crew members a fuel airlines flight bound for crimea from moscow are celebrating their 2nd birthday the air bus a 321 collided with

a flock of birds just shortly after takeoff from the capital's zuckoff ski airport's the captain jameer yusupov had just seconds to make the right decision when he discovered the strike caused engine failure with 16 tons of fuel on board no ability to make it back to the runway he knew that an emergency landing could result in a catastrophe to show you a little but all after we took off the engines became unstable 1st the left one and then the right one we usually simulate the situations when one or 2 engines are off despite all our efforts the plane was going down we realized that we didn't have much time just one or 2 minutes to make a decision in a blink of an eye this man with nerves of steel. decided still land the aircraft in a nearby cornfield without using the landing gear and shutting off all power to prevent an explosion and various officials praised the crew for their

professionalism during the spine chilling landing as well as for a well organized evacuation it is something we acted in line with our training with simulated situations like this before so there were no surprises the passengers were disciplined listen to our instructions and evacuated very quickly they did as we expected there was no panic on board even though the landing was rough the pilot did a great job he landed the plane really cafferty was to cook tell us please how do you feel now did you hurt your leg. this is you know it's better than i was there lying on the field so everything is rather good the landing was going to file it did a great job landed the plane on the outbound everything he fine the media was quick to make connections with a another such incidents when loss of life was a virgin thanks to a pilot the miracle on the hudson involving a u.s. airways the aircraft flown by captain chesley sullenberger and jeffrey skiles hit

a flock of geese after takeoff from new york city's la guardia airport and lost all engine power i'm able to land at any available airport they had to ditch the jet in the hudson river just outside of manhattan with all of the 155 passengers a risk used by nearby ferries and bolts thanks to the heroic solved by the captain and his crew their relatives and loved ones self all the people involved will get to see them again ramana koester of artsy moscow region and you can just imagine the stress count to aviation experts we spoke to say the pilots made all the right decisions under extreme pressure. i take my hat off to the pilots and to everybody onboard the crew and the passengers because this was a textbook emergency landing the video i've just seen of it was absolutely amazing i think he took a calculated risk he said right we are too near the ground by the time the landing

gear gets down it might not have locked in place we'll go for what we call a belly flop and that's basically what he did and he landed it beautifully and this is a bit like the if you remember the hudson river incident when the plane landed on the lake the whole point is that he brought it down with the nose slightly out and so literally it sailed over the cornfield and that's quite a rip so that's helped the landing these pilots did brilliantly because they were really quite low when the bird strike took place and the engine power dropped away almost completely so they had to look around for an open space in which to land and they didn't and as you can see they've done it brilliantly russia does have a history of having very good pilots that it's a profession that russians are very proud of having those who have it most exactly 10 years ago there was what has become known as the miracle on the hudson they got

a little bit higher before the birds hit them but this time they were geese and those a very big birds they lost both engines the pilot looked around the highly urbanized area near new york couldn't see anywhere safe to land so he landed on the river and again like this event everybody survived. the death of this creased former money military jeffrey epstein was caused by suicide according to the new york medical examiner's office the convicted paedophile who had connections in high places in washington was fine dead in his jail cell on august the 10th he was awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges at the time but lawyers for the financier have said they are not happy with the findings of the autopsy. the defense team fully intends to conduct its own independent and complete investigation into the circumstances and cause of mr epstein's death we are not satisfied with the conclusions of the medical examiner

a list 66 year old multi millionaire was set to face trial over the alleged abuse of dozens of underage girls and the creation of a sex trafficking network just days before his death among hutton court agreed least 1200 documents relating to the case he had repeatedly denied the charges against him last month epstein had been placed on suicide watch after an apparent attempt to take his own life well since the tycoons death there have been numerous reports about the conditions he was living in some have suggested he was helping to pay other inmates for protection others that he was sleeping on the floor and wasn't allowed to watch some even claim is death may not have been a suicide taking a closer look at all the speculation hearsay or trickle. if there are screen writers out there right now racking their brains over ideas for a new mega juicy plot i've got

a perfect one for you the life and death of convicted paedophile jeffrey epstein who was at the same time a friend of the likes of presidents clinton and trump or you case prince andrew just how many skeletons in his claws a did this man have his death as a real shocker and a staggering mystery some details of it though have been revealed to the public.

america baffled you really can't help asking questions. even though last month geoffrey epstein apparently already tried to kill myself a source within the law enforcement reported he was only put on suicide watch for less than a week plus it's been claimed epstein wasn't checked on every 30 minutes by guards and got deprived of his cellmate in violation of the prisons normal procedure there was also a rumor that surveillance cameras malfunctioned on that night when the death happened. only a day before the inmate was found unconscious a court released 1200 pages of documents detailing numerous claims of child abuse

by him and his girlfriend was that the last drop of anguish we'll never find out. oh this is a giant playground for fans of conspiracy theories these have been ranging from the idea that bill clinton had jeffrey epstein killed even president trump tweeted about that one to the russia did it kind of stories president from using his massive twitter platform $63000000.00 followers to spread a doraine conspiracy theory in a statement a clinton spokesman said the suggestion that the clintons were involved is ridiculous and of course not true and donald trump knows it you know this is just more recklessness what he's doing is dangerous a guy who had information that would have destroyed rich and powerful men's lives and dead in his jail cell how predictably russian it's hilarious and ultimately

completely predictable that you would have leftists and democrats and the media trying to pin something else on russia we haven't seen any ties to russia in the eps and steve case we haven't seen any russian oligarchs that have been on this fly list that we know of but anyway you can't turn away from the fact that mr epstein was close like i said with some of the most influential people on this planet most likely they had nothing to do with the death but all those politicians and money makers can now brave a sigh of relief because dead men don't speak the really aggravating thing to me is all the flying monkeys that are out there right now on conspiracy theories if you look at the facts of this case it was no question this was going to happen 1st of all in lock up settings like that there is no such thing as a personal privacy there there are no un control settings if rules are followed no shoelaces no belts no access to even as much as

a finger nail clipper or radio show us the darn films what do the cameras have to say who had access to the cameras where are they this is a remarkably simple program just 1st show us what was recorded. i want to turn attention to bahrain where human rights activist has been pardoned there after almost 3 years behind bars for making critical comments online about the government bahrain maintains nuttery youssef was jailed for promoting and encouraging people to mount a coup not to herself alleges she was tortured and sexually abused by police officers after her arrest but really officials say they have referred her complaint to a special investigation not just allegations relate to a local police station whose chief was trained by u.k. police are taylor's spoke to the organization the petition for her release. enjoy yourself a former bahraini civil servant and mother for was jailed in april 27th he

criticised the regime for hosting the motor racing show case that is formula one use of gave account of the abuse and sexual assault she was subjected to at the ha of the offices she was arrested by this threaten to kill me they tried to bribe me they beat me but worst of all officers tour of my he job and attempted to strip me of my clothes before an officer sexually assaulted me in custody the pain and humiliation of that week will haunt me for the rest of my life just if occasion they give is that the fact is she is involved in what they call it activity is. that it finishes off this means that the criticizing quoting will and grace and. reflecting good opinion on facebook or on twitter could considered to be a act and unfortunately for had she was subject to doing had interrogation to sexual assault and she was tortured only to interrogated about terror. facebook

account which was simply just a critical formula one a domestic or reigning issue while not really because he appears to be just soft it all happened as activists claimed in the police station headed up by brigadier fall was. caused train by none other than the british police back in 2015 other sound travel to belfast on a study visit basically a crash course in how to manage protesters the trip cost british taxpayers $16000.00 pounds now engineers have raised the alarm question how this all fits in with bahrain's human rights record. for having me hi rick.

when i arrived at the building in morocco they blindfolded me interrogated me because of my human rights activities during the interrogation the use the worst forms of physical torture they told me some harsh words threaten me and sexually abused me. but the members of the national security service insulted me they threatened me with rape restricting my livelihood preventing kryten and depriving the family of education and housing in addition to psychological and physical torture i was jailed 5 times in the past year most of the time i am banned from driving targeted jailed tortured and my cause targeted attack by rubber bullets and tear gas. one can often why is the u.k. continuing its cooperation with the regime regularly condemned by organizations all over the walled while the u.k. says that to give a helping hand in improving human rights so it's all in good faith and in the name of democracy given the high level of skill and expertise across british policing it

is not surprising that there is an international appetite to learn from the best we cannot stand by and criticize countries from the sidelines if we want to see wholesale changes it probably doesn't hurt that it brings in a tidy sum to the arm of the u.k. home office responsible for training officers abroad as poor and over 3000000 pounds since 2012 with 89 percent of that some coming from countries where the death penalty still exists when the british government to really talk about training those police what they are really doing is empowering what we call it the culture of impunity and they are there one which pretty much training tortures but also rewarding them if a police officer committed an abuse or something people could resort to things like this like and was meant often. you can submit complaints over the since 2012 to this date we have seen that those institutions which had been officially is the

british today ending resulted in only one thing that they they kill the torture of the still systematic in the country this is what the united nations say that this is what amnesty and what the human rights watch said and then secondly that that is the climate of impunity is this the status in the county allegations of complicity in human rights violations and bolstering authoritarian regimes increase daily complicit or not one has to admit it's not great for the british sas to take off. ok just for we go to break i want to bring you live to hong kong where anti-government protests movements rumble on with tens of thousands having the streets to call for reform as you can see a lot of people in the block directing laser pens out of police barricades set up to stop protesters from moving from one part of the city to another we'll break down the details of why this is happening in moments.

when else should seem wrong. why don't we all just don't call. me. yet to shape out to stay active. and engaged equals betrayal. when somebody find themselves worlds apart when she's to look for common ground. interest rates are gapping and the spread is widening into what i call the interest rate of part time if you're in the wrong side of the friends of jeffrey epstein you bantustan of extortion ery credit card rates if you're

a friend of jeffrey epstein then you get the insider rate of negative and you get paid to lend money or to borrow money excuse me from the bank. 20 minutes past the hour welcome buck islamic states claim responsibility for a devastating suicide bomb blast income pool on saturday night the explosion tore through a packed wedding hall in the afghan capital killing 63 people and wounding over 180 others but reports. the suicide attacker ditson it it is explosives cording to the afghan interior ministry the main section of the wedding where the

british newspapers though there's still a very basic. it's one of the biggest global stories right now and next a former foreign minister of pakistan gives her take on that kushner crisis the world's a mark of. what do you do if we came here where did you work before you came here when you live well death row in many us states capital punishment is still practiced convicted prisoners can spend years waiting for execution but most of the time the victims' families they are very much in favor the death penalty there are some people that because of what they did have given up the right to live among us some even proven innocent off the years on death row and how many more exonerations is it going to take before we as a society realize that this is not working and we actually do something about it.

in this community there are people who believe that it's ok to suffer acts of food on my table it's really hard there are no jobs and you see that i've got kids that ask and as a parent. i can come up with a logical argument there's a lot of conflict within the game between the 2 most of the conflict i would say of all this around money and most of them money has made. us want. he took. the children is good because the state of california alone makes 6000000000 dollars you have to prison complex and you get some point in your life where. you don't care anymore know why you're so you don't care about anything.

hello and welcome to worlds apart from the recent clashes on the indian pakistani border while sparking invites you over a potential war between nuclear rivals provided a curious lassen in political judo the pakistani leadership confronted to strikes on its territory not only managed to defuse time sions but also turned it into a minor p.r. victory can it make it last while to discuss that i'm now joined by him there obama har pakistan's former foreign minister and currently

a member of the national assembly but i'm hard it's good to talk to you again thank you very much for the time. so good to be here now the tensions between india and pakistan obviously have a very long history and there were times not so long ago when the one that was much more likely to count on india exercising restraint and pakistan acting more belligerent lee now it seems the tables have turned what explains these dramatic reversal in posters and you know it's interesting that you point that out because we've been saying this for the last many years that pakistan has changed by this is changing for the better getting out of extremism which we unfortunately found ourselves and we lived in because of you know the historical baggage of the one war and becoming a more progressive society i think the democratic regimes the last 2 democratic regimes had much to do with it whereas at the same time we see india going deeper and deeper into this ultra nationalist extremist almost in the state

non-secular and all times to mr moody who has not been the treated his vision into the fabric of indian society i think this crisis is unfortunate as it was exposed the change pakistan worse is the change to india and if i were the world i would be very scared of what i see in india right now for both leaders it was definitely an opportunity to exercise leadership and they chose very different strategists one of them chose to flex muscles the other one i thought relied more on his wits do you think that's more reflective of the personality of the 2 leaders mr modi and mr han or is it indeed more long term reflective of the country's national standing and national post. personalities certainly have a role to play i think over here more than just a const personalities mr moody's personality which has had a rule to play in what india has become in the last 5 years i've been screaming at the top.
