sids clear who used to play. 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 the u.n. special envoy to get calls for an urgent probe for alleged saudi airstrike killed surrounded dozen civilians. they can also do from russian life marty's world to send to moscow is kevin owen here with this update for you this of the next half. well 1st in the kremlin projected 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. 2020 the year just keeps on giving
5:02 am
a pandemic but social awakening and now russian interference the government has 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 complain 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 would of course want to congratulate absolutely everybody involved in securing the biggest conservative majority since i did eighties. wasn't just people fed up with political deadlock infighting and endless bricks it delays no it was russian actors theater actors film actors the kremlin russian nationals russian companies anyone
5:03 am
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 highly likely the likely heinie likely almost certainly will show this responsible for the act against and do the script down the cliff if she didn't know it looks like another use of highly likely tactics but it seems great dukie has given up on this term based on previous years' experience so now the british government gives us the new slogan almost certain. and these mysterious russian actors bombarded the public online with details of the neat post broke set u.k. u.s. trade deal the one that would have brits beating chlorinated 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 boris johnson the n.h.s. is on the table and will be up for sale now timing wise but it's an interesting
5:04 am
allegation did the british government just watch and do very little as the virus to 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 mischa's 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 watts for 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 difference in u.k. democratic process i mean i think that this is there sure is not i'm sure
5:05 am
a 3rd saying you can politics there is no evidence for that 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 line 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 different see through research and development for credit cards 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 walking towards a vaccine now some might say selfish interest would include buying up the wild
5:06 am
supply of the coronavirus treatment drug not completing the fast preclinical trial of a vaccine on humans or by its nefarious self as russia has done but that's just minor details good old russian into ferrets an old friend you can always turn to if the going gets tough and you need a bit of a break from being bashed. united nations says it has no information about the alleged vaccine development the head of the russian sovereign wealth fund which is investing in research here says there's no need for theft because oxford university has been sharing vaccine data under existing commercial agreements so we as people learn that if they are worried about a perceived russian threat i don't think it's going to play her straight from try as 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 take. action. he likes and i'd rather be blaming cummings before i blame
5:07 am
groceries make that rationing the kind it's like that because i am different from other like events guy kind of things like actions that we think that's kind of complex and it's very easy to point the finger when it is an old saying you know that's ok when you point the finger take a look you have anything to support you back. since the allegations emerged we've been getting reaction from for british intelligence of politicians and analysts. well here we go again highly likely or sartorial of days are long gone when the public believed highly likely claims by british government ministers or mr starr's any well the public demands are of a higher standard of growth than that nowadays or do they mean by russian is this president putin that again sitting on radio. jock your motor boat the national health service. if they had evidence wouldn't we
5:08 am
to publish it if they're caught when what they mean by russian actor actress surely must mean russian security forces if they had evidence that russian security forces were guilty of into being in the u.k. general election you'd not be prosecuted in rome 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 be leaky. 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 some sort of coming out of government while the real hack from the sun explores act or agency so i think it's interesting that now bring us up to take a head of the publication of being a tourist. and report. while the 7 months are for a french delivery driver died when police pinned him to the ground in
5:09 am
a choke hold 3 officers have now been charged with manslaughter a father of 5 said rich of a cell for the heart attack and ultimately died from asphyxiation i thought was supposed to be a routine stop so that even ski reports from paris. when cedric hsu fate was pulled over by police in january it was for a traffic check the offices say that he had been looking at a suburban atlanta based. say that the motorbike delivery driver also had a duty to license plate passes by film the scenes that followed at 1st said to picture can be seen pointing his finger act 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 helmets
5:10 am
in order heard by investigators the father of 5 is said to be crying out that he called to brief 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 pyxia said family devastated by his death hit out at the manner in which the police arrested him again. we do not understand why this technique restrained the children hold has still not been banned because as we have seen this is what killed my father it cost a fraction of the larynx and we are in the state of total in comprehension today that's why i want to speak directly to mr amano mccraw the chokehold technique is
5:11 am
one of many things that officers can use to control a suspect when cedric shuv a 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 over the use of the chokehold technique but also reigniting protests over alleged police brutality. authorities took notice and announced that the controversial chokehold technique would be banned but that didn't last long with anger from the police unions forcing the government to back down and made a u. turn but the protests did focus in new spotlight on the case of said it should say
5:12 am
now an investigation has found that there is a case to be answered by the officers present day with manslaughter charges being made his family they are still unhappy because very often it will be the reason these are we are glad the police officers have finally been charged although for some odd reason one female officer in the case is serving as the 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 not everyone in the police force is a murderer and there are people doing their jobs in harsh circumstances with a lack of resources we as a family understand that we asked the interior minister is the hit by by the rules and create the lie that started the holocaust 10 journey for 22 and she said her
5:13 am
family await justice for his death meanwhile they remain defiant that the chokehold technique must be abandoned. azzi paris. the un special envoy to yemen is calling for an urgent probe into wednesday's airstrikes in the north of the country the bodies humanitarian coordinator office earlier said at least 11 civilians were killed in the bombing raid although the rebel. movement's own health ministry says it's more like 24 referred to show you some video from a hospital next please be aware it does show young children with injuries this is where a lot of the survivors from that attack are being treated many of them are youngsters who will say the saudi led coalition hit residential buildings and military chiefs have so far only said they will investigate the attackers drawn international condemnation including from the u.n. children's fund unicef since the beginning of the yemeni war back in 2015 now the country has become one of the world's worst humanitarian catastrophes with over
5:14 am
100000 killed the majority of civilian casualties results 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 but the international trade secretary saying possible war crimes in yemen seem to be isolated incidents. 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 do you know saudi arabia i don't understand this is the you know hypocrisy there completely completely misleading because it is a government that are seeking a lot of money from the saudi every get this is they believe they wouldn't be any i don't do i mean you know a cold case and this and it is if it saves one but it is
