one fuel this is the report. described only overcrowded sounds we hear 300 teens packed into. 10 meters by 10 years. it is midnight in moscow thanks for joining us this is alt. national security team is expected to meet a little later on thursday senior officials from across the government to set to consider a response to the drone attacks in saudi arabian oil fields at the weekend the president though is still unclear what option he's leaning towards. i mean you may have some very strong here and we'll see what happens a lot of things could happen if we can have a peaceful solution that's good it's possible that that won't happen the united states says that it is confident iran is responsible vows to impose new sanctions
5:02 pm
on tehran to remind you last saturday a dozen cruise missiles more than 20 drones is a major oil field and processing plant in the east of the kingdom the attack which yemeni hugely rebels claimed they carried out knocked out 5 percent of the global oil supply which saw the price of oil rocket. looks at what evidence has been presented. it has been decided that iran did not start an opinion will a finding with the result of an investigation it's a decision guilty secretary to gather any new evidence that shows who is behind the attacks and do you think it is slam dunk case to bring to the u.n. next week. i think it's abundantly clear and there is an enormous consensus in the region that we know precisely who conducted these attacks was iran i didn't hear anybody in the region who doubted that for
5:03 pm
a single mom trub is doing what trump does best signing pieces of paper bringing to bear a slew of new sanctions against iran to come into effect within 48 hours and these undone and we'll see what happens we'll see what happens i think we have a lot of good capital that we have to do something we'll do it without hesitation the americans who weren't attacked of already decided what happened then who is guilty the saudis who were attacked and have all the day bre and bits and pieces of the missiles still working on technicalities like evidence and proof let that sink in. the attack did not originate from yemen the attack was launched from the move and was unquestioned be sponsored by iran it's not in the range of yemen's capabilities if it was them who conducted the attack this is one of the missiles we
5:04 pm
have recovered and we have information that leads us to the source that these kind of components were made in iran so what they found is the weapons were allegedly made with iranian components they were fired from the north the direction of iran and its neighbors so cutting to the chase it was iran that's what you're going to say right. the rain regime and the i.r.g.c. are trying to hide any evidence of the components and the technology i'm sure we will spoke to launch site we are working on whoever is responsible about to take the accountability not once during the presentation that the saudis specifically say that iran did it and there's no love lost if they could they would say it but technicalities but saudi arabia won't do brave journalists will too
5:05 pm
happy to undeniable evidence of a reign in aggression and it almost has the fingerprints of the revolutionary guard in its influence over the hutu rebels tonight u.s. intelligence indicates the unprecedented attack on saudi oil fields originated from iran our top intelligence officials think iran did it and so does our top an intelligence official donald trump because 1 may ask what on earth saudi defenses were doing at the time they've got the 3rd biggest military budget on earth one of america's best clients the country's livid with patriot and other anti missile systems $80000000000.00 a year should protect you from a score of drones and missiles no. the news conference from the saudi arabian defense ministries press secretary is a catastrophe for saudi arabia they've shown they cannot prove or know exactly when the cruise missiles and drones were made from exactly with that attack was launched
5:06 pm
or why edge defense systems could not prevent that attack the only thing that might be iranian related is that maybe some of the equipment some of the technology that the who these have might have been incorporated into the attack but why why or why is anyone complaining especially the saudis since the u.s. has been providing the bombs and the aircraft to the saudis to bomb yemen for 4 years so the who with these or just responded back then again to those saying it's iran because they're alleged iranian components in the day bri does that mean that the u.s. is responsible for horrific massacre in yemen i mean sure saudi arabia dropped the bombs but those say made in the united states more likely than not arabia has been clearing the shelves of american arms manufacturers recently by this logic is new need to investigate to collect evidence it's american bombs it
5:07 pm
has got to be america. an entire country reduced to misery and pain untold thousands dead more to die but you know what it's the oil refinery in saudi arabia the book wires vengeance. meanwhile iran's foreign minister mohammad javad zarif has warned any strike against iran by the u.s. or saudi arabia would lead to all out war the u.n. sent a team of experts to saudi arabia to investigate last week's drone a missile attacks russia too as underlined the necessity for an unbiased probe. of abuse and it is important to make the investigation objective details are numb
5:08 pm
biased and as the allegations against iran that are not backed up by facts do not help the situation only intensify tensions in the region where the risk of confrontation is already high song american surface to air missiles known as patriots of miss our detection areas and kill zones as the russian defense ministry puts it and the drone attacks are actually carried out in the middle of those areas middle east expert ali risk believes that the case demonstrates the failure of u.s. and saudi anti-missile systems. well i think these attacks expose the limits of the capabilities of both the united states and saudi arabia and i think that the conclusion which has to be reached by the trumpet ministration is that it can no longer continue to support this war on the iman but rather it has to go into talks or enter some kind of a diplomatic process in order to put an end to this situation there's been numerous attempts they've been u.n.
5:09 pm
mediations they've been other diplomatic initiatives all of it has failed the other states the trumpet ministration has in fact doubled down on its support for the war on the amman so i think that the many who thieves were given no choice but to escalate attacks with the aim of forcing the enemy to bell down and to put a stop to this war and to find some kind of another another supplement a peaceful settlement for the conflict that we have been fact seen in the trunk administration and on sanctions there's talk now about cyber attacks which could target their own but as for all out war i think that is very unlikely. after an almost 2 month large scale maritime operation the global security body interpol says it's detected at least a dozen suspected foreign terrorist fighters who invented the continent by crossing the mediterranean who details these on the show they do that city. this is
5:10 pm
operation she ran to the idea is it to look for threats posed by foreign terrorist fighters who may be using maritime brits forcing them at training in attempts to get into the showing the area into the european union interpol of said that during the oprah show in the summer there were so one point she would 1000000 checks that took place this is checks that just looking at people's legal documents making sure that they all do they say they are and they say as a result of all of those checks they intercepted 12 individuals who they believe all potential terrorists interpol says it's always only god when information is shared between regions into pools networks of the global level and every check border control or random search is a potential break in the terror investigation while no further details have been released about those individuals such as where they're from or indeed which works they use are trying to get into the european union but many will be concerned that
5:11 pm
this is yet another element to this the only issue of immigration the e.u. leaders are yet to agree a way forward on we know ministers will meet next week to discuss that but countries such as italy greece and rome said that they are shown during the heavy burden and they've asked for other european countries to do more to help out and there is this concern that although the numbers in the last 3 years have been declining in the last few days it has been a shopping priest in areas such as greece leading to see is that they could be another story yet again the migration present michael was in italy on wednesday evening to meet the prime in the suggests that people say and he said that it is time to listen to those countries on the open. european union is not shown enough solidarity with the countries of 1st arrival particularly italy but france is ready. move forward on this point i hope that together we can work towards
5:12 pm
a new stronger a more united solution i believe that here too we can defend the common position with the new european commission so that all countries can put to support me in some form of european solidarity in this area or be penalized financially and it's not just how to deal with the sheer number of migrants that europe has seen coming into the continent over the last 2 years it's also of what they do when they hear and we know that the commissioner designate for the european union will delay and is going to have to deal with it she's already been criticized the some of the things that she's put in place just in the last week or so she announced that the commission of that would be looking off to the brief of immigration i would be called the commissioner for the european way of life some accusing her of the using fractious rhetorical with that title including the president. who said he just
5:13 pm
didn't agree with the idea of this title so an issue of immigration many elements to it and it looks like it's far from over and it's something that european union leaders and also their ministers will be discussing for many months to come. the u.n. security council has rejected to draft resolutions on the humanitarian crisis in the syrian province of idlib failing to find consensus on key points of disagreement between russia and the u.s. what he's going to open explains why the un's again running head 1st into brick walls when it comes to syria. the 15 member body that leads the united nations convened a meeting and at that meeting 2 resolutions were put forward now one resolution was backed by germany kuwait and belgium and that resolution was vetoed by russia and china then a joint resolution from russia and china regarding it was put forward and that resolution was also rejected vetoed by members of the security council so what was
5:14 pm
the difference between these 2 resolutions regarding the situation well both sides and both different resolutions called for a ceasefire there is universal agreement that there needs to be a ceasefire in libya now the russian representative explained the point of disagreement between the united states and russia regarding the draft resolution while the united states seems to advocate an entire total cease fire russia argued there should not be protection for terrorist organizations and that anti terror operations should continue here's some of the disagreement we heard between the united states and russia at the security council look. unfortunately the content of the draft on the course of the work on it is a clear indication of the real objective of our colleagues which is to save the international terrorists in from their final defeat and put the blame of what's happened their own rusher in syria russians veto of today's resolution 13th
5:15 pm
veto in syria represents yet another attempt to absolve itself in the assad regime of their culpability in the deaths of thousands of syrian men women and children as the debate ensued it became pretty clear there was pretty solid disagreement about what was designated as a terrorist and what was designated as just syrian opposition now the russian representative said that the the proposal and the draft resolution put forward by kuwait germany and belgium was going. to be vetoed it was very clear that russia would veto that resolution before it was put forward but it seems that rather than trying to reach a solution that is agreeable to all parties the desire as according to the russian representative or the desire is simply to blame russia for the continued situation in the breaching of the ceasefire rather than reaching an agreement that could actually stick so different views of the situation is presented by different
5:16 pm
countries at the u.n. security council no resolution was passed both of them were rejected. the leader of the israeli opposition insists that he will have a unity government not in human netanyahu that's after the prime minister's bloc in their position both to win a majority in a snap election. according to the election commission we have received $33.00 seats and netanyahu did not achieve the bloc that he had hoped to achieve citizens of israel want to the unity government even after previous elections and they want it now i was talking about it almost for the whole year i intend to create a wide unity government with me as the leader. i was surprised and disappointed by the fact that as of now benny gantz still refuses my call to meet the president called for unity and without a meeting between the 2 major party leaders a unity government cannot be formed the opposition leader statement comes after netanyahu called to form
5:17 pm
a coalition with 97 percent of the vote counted and yahoo center rightly could block 2 seats behind the center left blue and white alliance or one say the prime minister added that if he doesn't lead the government it will be quote dangerous to receive his mandate from the arab parties he spoke to diplomatic analyst isn't rhoden who thinks that there will be a struggle for leadership of a coalition. netanyahu is somewhat disappointment that gunns is refusing even to meet him so we are in a quite skeptical phase now there's never going to be a 3rd round here 9999 percent certain here i think we are going for as said by those 2 leaders for a coalition unity government and now everyone they think is trying to play the tough guy here who is going to be the one who will get the mandate to be the leader who will serve under whom by any by any position by also by this ministry by this
5:18 pm
portfolio in negotiation psychology here that's the main thing i'm seeing here behind the scenes. 2 major attacks in afghanistan of the 50 people that one was carried out by the taliban the other by the afghan government which mistook its target details as local journalists. powerful suicide bombing targeted south and zabul province this morning killing at least 20 people according to the local provincial council members and taliban claimed responsibility for this attack claiming that they have targeted the local intelligence campaign around but also a local hospital was damaged and many people have been killed and wounded there so the local official said they try to transfer as many as they could to the neighboring province of kandahar this is happening while the talks between the u.s.
5:19 pm
and the taliban has halted and stopped and the fighting between these 2 groups i mean the government and the taliban has intensified in different levels in front lines as well as in the cities and in the outskirts specially in the districts so we had heard another incident deadly incident there that happened in eastern part of afghanistan that u.s. backed afghan forces targeted a group of farmers that were there for harvesting point now it's and according to the local officials around 30 people have been killed and local governor office saying that they have transferred 9 dead bodies and 6 wounded to the local hospital the local provincial governor office announced their target was a dice militants a research analyst at the center for conflict and pay studies. believes the afghan
5:20 pm
government needs to carefully investigated a mistake if it wants to keep the support of the public. a lot of the media reports suggest that it was a drone attack drone attacks only be carried out by the americans it's a serious matter and should be investigated totally the afghan government is often silent when that comes to civilian casualties particularly. by the international forces so i think this is this is a serious problem in and if it continues it will widen the gap between the one. population in the government and at the same time create more enemies for the alphonse in the american forces it's the responsibility of all parties the afghan government the americans and the taliban to resume negotiations i think everybody here has a stake and are responsible for what's happening enough on the son in in the last then the and for the killing of afghans that the losing their

lives. and the antiterrorist crackdown in nigeria is that the thousands of children being detained months according to a new report from human rights watch we spoke to them about the findings since 2013 nigeria has to change about 3600 children and in june human rights watch went to the northeast of nigeria where boko haram is most active and we interviewed more than 30 children who had been detained the vast majority of these children were never charged with a crime in fact they were never taken to court and never had the opportunity to see a judge the children were denied contact with their families and held in oracle conditions they described so little money that they couldn't turn over at night they were piled one next to the other you described it like the razor blade in a pack many of them something began losing hope that they would ever be released
5:22 pm
some felt they would die in detention. our children as young as 5 are reportedly held it over crowded military detention facilities on little or no evidence they spent months even years there without charge reports of sexual physical and mental abuse it was also overcrowding the children been accused of involvement with the armed terrorist group boko haram the radical islamist organization is based in northeastern nigeria it carries out suicide bombings as well as armed assaults right through west africa and 2015 block around pledged allegiance to islamic state and if the imprisoned children rounded up and i.g.n. or thirty's during military operations against the group they are smee if i was a member of booker her and beat me up when i said no they tied my hands and legs and hung me to a tree and continued to flow camy they flogged me and left me tied to the tree from morning to evening one person from my village was killed during the interrogation
5:23 pm
if you make a noise if you drink water without asking them if you go toward the door to get fresh air they beat you. the soldiers had girlfriends one of the girls from our village was a girl friend of a soldier she would usually take her out of the compound some leaders got pregnant in the cell and delivered while i was there. you know during our thirty's of released over 2000 children from detention since 2030 nearly all of whom have been held without charge is not known at this point just how many of them remain in custody mr becker again saying the government should make more effort to release them. nobody knows the current number of children who may still be in military custody nigerian authorities do not allow the night the sions or independent organizations like human rights watch to access the military detention centers but what human rights watch is calling for is that nigerian authorities release any remaining children in military detention and transfer them to civilian child
5:24 pm
protection authorities so that they can receive rehabilitation help or unifying with their families and reintegrating into their communities with the nigerian military denies the allegations in the report saying the children are kept in secure areas and are adequately cared for we have us the nigerian ministry of justice for comment they've yet to respond. a famous pakistani novelist has been denied a german literary award over her political activism she's been calling for a boycott of israeli goods on quarter reports. the city of dortmund has reversed its decision to hand a literary awards to british pakistani author kamila shamsie that she plagiarized something commit a crime perhaps now it's all because she supports an anti israel movement called boycott divestment sanctions. the time of the decision none of the jurors knew that kamila shamsie had supported the boycotts divestments and sanctions campaign in the
5:25 pm
past b.s. aims to isolate israel economically politically and culturally b.d.'s has a presence across much of the globe but in germany it's had a few run ins with the government the palestinian women's organization recently sued the city of boston for being excluded from the festival and the court ruled that discrimination based on the organization's belief in b.d.s. was unfair treatment. of freedom of expression includes the freedom to discuss and call for boycott of campaigns and is also protected by the european convention on human rights however this case is the exception not the rule the border stock has made it clear they see b.d.s. as an anti sematic movement not just anti israel. the arguments and methods of the boycott divestment and sanctions movement are anti semitic the message of the campaign to boycott israeli activists and goods or i'm innocent of the most terrible period in german history the do not buy a stick is an israeli products bring back associations with the nazi slogan do not
5:26 pm
buy from jews and similar graffiti in facades and shop windows the law makers concern isn't out of the blue given germany's past but calling the movement nazis could be a bit of a stretch since b.d.'s are mostly left wing activists calling attention to israel's mistreatment of the palestinian people and the palestinians who are protesting say it's not the palestinians who are doing the oppressing just look at this protest represents the 1st step in confronting the german parliament's motion which is against our arab nation and against the palestinian cause they are part of the. netanyahu axis that tries to crush the rights of our people and the right of return the boycott movement will continue and this is supported by the palestinian liberation organization along with youth and student groups around the world more and more politicians are questioning israel's policies as oppressive risking being called anti sematic along the way i can't stand by and watch this attack on our
5:27 pm
freedom of speech and the right to boycott the racist policies of the government in the state of israel the oppressive netanyahu administration and i have seen this in gaza. where families have lived that have been bombed by targeted bombing buys ready jets what the united states should be doing and of course the trump ministrations doing exactly the opposite is instead of applauding israel for its actions israel should be condemned germany's past is certainly still haunting to many after all you can't just wipe its horrors out of history but when it comes to israel and palestine it's not a simple as black and white donald quarter r.t. berlin. ok thanks to don thanks to you guys for cheating in this is an international appreciate it company you know me from tyson hof and.
5:28 pm
you know world of big partisan lot 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 smarter we need to stop slamming the door on the back 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. they all see themselves as dying swans in their dreams.
