a person in danger along with assault and actions that led to my son's death and coming up to the south the u.n. special envoy to yemen calls for an urgent probe for an alleged saudi airstrike kills around a dozen civilians. good morning from russia live from marty's world news h.q. here in moscow is kevin owen with the update for you this half you stick around for the next 30 minutes maybe with me 1st then the kremlin has rejected britain's twin accusations of election meddling and hacking medical research into covert vaccines the foreign secretary said the government is almost certain that russia sought to interfere in last year's poll says could taylor breaks down the accusations and then. 2020 the year just keeps on giving a pandemic but social awakening and now russian interference the government has
3:02 am
concluded that it is almost certain that russian actors start to interfere in the $21000.00 general election through the online amplification of illicitly acquired in league government documents whilst there is no evidence of a broad spectrum russian campaign against the general election and any attempt to interfere in our democratic processes is completely unacceptable and elected to parliament the u.k. foreign secretary said to his party's historic triumph at the polls in 2019 and i will of course want to congratulate absolutely everybody involved in securing the biggest conservative majority since that i did eighties. wasn't just people fed up with political deadlock infighting and endless bricks it delays no it was the russian actors theater actors film actors the kremlin russian nationals russian companies by anyone who's ever been to russia it's unclear and yet at the same time it's apparently almost certain ring about the government has concluded that it is
3:03 am
highly likely the likely finding likely almost certainly russia's responsible for the to. do the script down the cliff he should initiate the looks like another use of highly likely tactics but it seems like dougie has given up on this term based on previous years' experience even more so now the british government gives us the new slogan almost certain that it's. and these mysterious russian actors bombarded the public online with details of the nique to pose set u.k. u.s. trade deal the one that would have bred speaking coronated chicken and making visits to a privatized n.h.s. hospital is something i can reveal to you $461.00 pages of evidence on the forest of the n.h.s. is of the table and will be up for sale now timing wise but it's an interesting allegation did the british government just watch and do very little as the virus to
3:04 am
hold here under fire for a severe lack of personal protective equipment for health care workers and the failure to ramp up testing the government is under increasing pressure to ease the nationwide lockdown measures is close to having europe's worst death toll so what did it do wrong what differently the government's not only buried under criticism over its covert mistakes but also in debt with a nation afraid to step outside again the accusation also comes ahead of a much anticipated report on russian interference in u.k. politics as a whole a report that's been in the walks 18 months on which the prime minister himself said didn't point to any nefarious forces there is. absolutely no evidence that i've ever seen of any russian in the disappearance in u.k. democratic process i mean i think that this is there sure is not russian interference in u.k. politics there is no evidence for that
3:05 am
a bit mixed message but it'll still do the trick russian meddling might be an oldie but it's still a good deal but if you really wanted to shift attention away from many crises and and buy a pack of mind space you could go free double whammy we know that the russian intelligence agencies have been targeting in terms of cyber attacks against efforts across the those 3 countries and here in the u.k. . our attempts to find the funds see through research and development occurring of ours we do not have information about who may have hacked into pharmaceutical companies and research centers in great britain we can say one thing russia has nothing at all to do with these attempts apparently a hacking group terrifyingly called cozy back is trying to steal everything from research labs hospitals big pharma as all the good guys who are watching towards a vaccine now some might say selfish interest would include buying up the wild supply of the coronavirus treatment drug not completing the fast preclinical trial
3:06 am
of a vaccine on humans or by its nefarious self as russia has done but that's just minor details good old russian into ferentz an old friend you can own ways turn to if the going gets tough and you need a bit of a break from being bashed so totally there will the united nations says it's got no information about the alleged. development the head of the russian sovereign wealth fund chipped in to which is investing in research here the says there's no need thought theft because org said universities been sharing data under existing commercial agreements with people in london and if they thought they were too worried about the perceived russian threat. i don't think it's productive to play her straight sometimes i think these things will distract up you know just for a smokescreen you know just to you know distract us from what's really going on there's a lot of taking. action. he likes and i'd rather be blaming cummings before i blame
3:07 am
groceries they make about rationing the kind it makes them because like after half nothing like a bright sky kind of thing like gold rush is so evil i think it's kind of counter-productive it's very easy to point the finger within it is an old saying in africa when you point the finger take a look see how many fingers are pointing back at you since the allegations of merge sweeping get a reaction too from the 4 british intelligence staff politicians and analysts. well here we go again highly likely almost certain days are long gone when the public believes is a likely claims by british government ministers or megastars anyway the public demands are of a higher standard of growth nowadays what do they mean by russian is this president putin that again sitting on radio. jock you're most of the national service. simply hard evidence wouldn't we
3:08 am
to publish it if they're caught when what they mean by russian or surely must mean russian security forces if they had evidence that russian security forces would kill chip into being in the u.k. general election not be pussyfooting around to release that information that would be headline news in every news outlet in this country and across the globe seized on by the americans and the he. do men when the story broke as well last year or it was called a leak it wasn't called a hack so it was something really new coming out of government actually some extra agency selling. it's interesting that the now bringing this up it can handle the publication of being a tourist. of the news this morning more than a french delivery driver died when police pinned to the ground in
3:09 am
a choke hold 3 officers have been charged with manslaughter father of 5 suffered a heart attack of those mostly died from asphyxiation after what was supposed to be a routine stop. reports from paris when citric shoe free was pulled over by police in january it was a traffic check the offices say that he had been looking at his suburban and they say that the motorbike delivery driver also had a duty to license plates passes by phil this seems followed at 1st said to picture can be seen pointing his finger at the police for over 10 minutes he in the police are shown to be in discussion but then. is said to have called an officer a fool and he's arrested under arrest they say he resisted the video then shows 3 officers holding him down on the floor while still wearing his motorbike helmet
3:10 am
in order hood by investigators the father of 5 is said to be crying out that he called breve he repeats this 7 times during that arrest he suffered a heart attack he was taken to hospital in a coma 2 days later said to make sure it was dead a post-mortem found that he hadn't died from the heart attack in fact his larynx had been fractured and he died from this cedric family devastated by his death hit out at the manner in which the police arrested him. we do not understand why these technical restraint of children holding has still not been banned they can. as we have seen this is what killed my father it cost a fraction of the bering strait and we are in the state of total in comprehension today that's why i want to speak directly to mr emanuel. the chokehold technique is one of many things that officers can use to control
3:11 am
a suspect when cedric should say died his family called out for change but nothing happened it wasn't until months later following the death of u.s. citizen george floyd that anger really flared up not just to the use of the chokehold technique but also reigniting protests so alleged police brutality. authorities took notice and announced that the controversial show called technique would be banned but that didn't last long with anger from the police unions forcing the government to back down and it made a u. turn but the protests did focus in new spotlight on the case of sets picture of
3:12 am
a now an investigation has found that there is a case to be answered by the officers who were present day with manslaughter charges being made his family they are still unhappy because very often probably the reason these are well we're glad the police officers have finally been charged although for some odd reason one female officer in the case is serving as a witness we don't understand this in my view there was a failure to help a person in danger along with assault and actions that led to my son's death and they still haven't been fired the government has changed so let's see what comes next but for me what's happening now is shameful just as not everyone in the police force is a murderer and there are people doing their jobs in harsh. stern says with a lack of resources we as a family understand that although we asked the interior minister is the here by by the rules and create the lie that started to have cost $10.00 and generally preferred 22 said family await justice for his death meanwhile they

remain defiant that the chokehold technique must be abandoned. r.t. paris. the un special envoy to yemen is calling for an urgent probe into wednesday's airstrikes in the north of the country the world body she went to. his earlier said at least 11 civilians were killed in a bombing raid or the other rebel who threw movements health ministry itself says it's 24 we're going to show you some video from a hospital next but please do be aware it shows young children with injuries so this is where a lot of the survivors from being treated many of them are youngsters who said the saudi led coalition residential buildings. have so far only said their best to gate the attackers to an international condemnation including from the u.n. children's fund unicef the back story since the beginning of the yemeni war back in 2015 now the country has become more one of the world's worst humanitarian
3:14 am
catastrophes with over 100000 killed the majority of civilian casualties result from airstrikes with the saudi led coalition blamed by international human rights groups for indiscriminate bombings despite that britain last week announced it would resume arms sales to saudi arabia with the international trade secretary said a possible war crimes in yemen seem to be isolated. i have assessed that there is not a clear risk of the export of arms and military equipment to saudi arabia might be used in the commission of a serious violation of international humanitarian law i.e. united kingdom actually still sending these workers to use saudi arabia i don't understand. your. hypocrisy and they're completely completely misleading to everybody because it is the government are seeking more money from the saudi arabia this is they definitely if they wouldn't pay any attention to only you know
3:15 am

gary this really needs to be tracked. morning international travel than is slowly picking up and that's proving to be a headache now in ireland which says it's having trouble with one particular set of tourists guests arriving from the united states heading straight to enjoy bars restaurants and hotels the thing is they should be in quarantine for 14 days it's causing more than a little anxiety for the hospitality industry there and its local regulars one chef told us he's had to turn american guests away. from the. 2 tables to different tables of american tourists wrote a book into the restaurant when they were asked about when they arrived in the country days earlier which means that the morning they're forced to able just
3:19 am
shrugged and walked away and the 2nd table gentleman on it said he didn't have drawn a virus and it was all over hyped in a way in which point i just said i'm sorry word on here thank you and please leave the rest of the annoyed that are based on the fact before you're taking them pay bills on the night of my stuff would have been comfortable. i was putting them possibly in jeopardy because i was too high and i wasn't willing to take yes. so right now there is public pressure on the government to be a little tougher on travel from the united states unlike the rest of the island's ok at the moment with allowing visitors from the country that registered the highest number of infections let's not forget although irish leaders insist not that many are flying in. the amount american visitors or information back from the public transport is up the numbers are quite low all people should not be coming to our land if they can't restrict their movement for 14 days when they come here.
3:20 am
this is not a time for normal holidays for tourists coming from abroad. i think we've been very clear on the us. and chef nokian also believes the government's falling short of shielding the country from potential virus carries. it's under control and the last thing we need to be is people coming in from from parts box and they do gardening when we've done their selves here i think it's more about the government reaction. the americans themselves and you know the government came out and said that there was it was more complex complicated than that and some of the systems were flawed that's a car broke past a book it's much easier to please our borders than it is. to be seen to be able to do it i think that's a lot of where younger is coming from it's like we're in a little bit it should be easier for us to do would deliver anybody. the economic
