election descended into name calling on interruptions on the 2nd round. and environmental groups warn. in russia's far east there's a probe is launched into talks killing sea life. bringing your recap of the top stories from the past 7 days and right up to the minute developments as well this is the weekly an r t international alone welcome. we begin with the conflict between armenia and azerbaijan which has now entered a 2nd week the disputed region of the going to color is being relentlessly shelled these are some of the latest pictures from the local capital showing burning cars residential buildings have been hits across the city the number of casualties is so far on clear earlier in the week

a hospital was hit in another strike several residential buildings were also badly damaged hostilities are now expanding beyond the disputed territory with several tons in azerbaijan bombed the city of ganja came under fire earlier on sunday as a bridge on claims one person was killed and 32 wounded on friday the town of tara was also attacked by coup claims thousands of shells were used in that raid since the start of the conflict azerbaijan say 24 civilians have been killed and over 100 people injured as artie's murat goes to give. well we're seeing unfortunately events down a path that was feared by many but few thought that we would get here many people thought that things would deescalate especially with such tremendous international diplomatic pressure on both sides calling them to deescalate put that hasn't happened we have seen now for several days unprecedented terrifying bombardment of

step on like at the biggest settlement the biggest doubt in the war zone and during that bombardment at some point authorities came out looking at forty's and said look if as if by john doesn't stop targeting us with with shells multiple rocket launchers with an air strike we will respond in an equally powerful manner and apparently now they have responded by striking at the city of ganja they have confirmed this the city of ganja the 2nd biggest city in a city by john they have confirmed this the head of the government could have said that he gave the order to strike and he also gave the order to stop these missile strikes this was a warning a message to the senate by johnnie's he said we're warning you to stop to deescalate to come to your senses and to stop before things get out of control before we reach a point from which there is no going back i said about john itself says that what

was targeted in the city of ganja wasn't a military airfield this new coordinates are about said but populated areas civilian areas turkey has come out very strongly against this kind of bug strike on ganja they're blaming this on our movie and saying that this was essentially a crowd which is peace and defeat and thereby johnny to reduce the design getting civilian residential areas in the 2nd largest city of his or by john donne john why do done so many of violate so principles of human it's a rule including the geneva convention armenia itself has. come out though and said that it wasn't the god. of that expanded the war zone the geographic area along which combat was happening but it was i was it about drug and turkey which targeted which targeted military and civilian targets inside armenia and itself not inside the golden it got a box it was easy to budge on the previously expanded the combat zone by shelling

the tutorial or media. more than that says that it will respond in a powerful magnet to any provocation from any side so if anything is targeted in armenia proper it will respond i said about john also escalating you know this is every response to an escalation seems to be another escalation as ever john coming out and saying that it will now target any military installation or target inside armenia proper if it believes that that military target fired upon populated areas inside is it about drought all in all these seas a very significant escalation because obviously armenia itself has a defense pact with russia so if armenia is attacked it will have cause to trigger its defensive pact with russia and call for help from abroad turkey letting it be known that if i did it by john it struck they had said so themselves before any

attack by armenia and azerbaijan would be construed as an attack on turkey itself so it would be standing by it will certainly ceased whether with military force or with support it will assist as it a budget so indeed events are developing along a very worrying trajectory the conflict reignited last sunday but it has roots stretching back over 3 decades the enclave broke away from us or by john in 1988 but the area has not been widely recognized as a sovereign state. oh

my dearest if we have only one condition that armenia leaves our lands completely and immediately this is file it if the armenian government complies with this the fighting will stop there will be no bloodshed there will be peace peace will come to a region. well i believe the armenian army can secure a country and the self-defense forces of the golden corral buck are successfully protecting their region from a political standpoint i believe it's very important for us that international partners know how and who started this military action. while another of our correspondents has been in the conflict zone right throughout the week with his report on friday's shelling of the carbine capital here's yourself. it has come under probably the heaviest shelling since we arrived here 2 massive explosions in

the very center of the city usually what we could hear what we could see the smoke from the explosions which were on the outskirts in the suburbs this is the very city center and moreover this is the building of the ministry of emergencies so it has been obliterated i mean look look at this everything is gone windows are gone the whole wall there's a hole in the whole wall and it's not just this building there's a whole complex it's a large it's a large complex and it's everywhere like this obliterated not raise to the ground but it's gone i don't see any way how it can be fixed all renovated we don't know what we don't know what exactly caused the explosion but we didn't hear any sirens and sirens so probably wasn't a drone but some really heavy artillery and with a very long range as well but we have to go they are telling us it's not safe because sometimes as the as there by journeys are using these so-called double tap

so that they not only they destroy the building but also the kill soldiers who arrived here we've arrived here with the soldiers as well so we have to go this is the crater that was made by one of the rockets and this is a piece from its head the military here is telling me that this is a 250 caliber 250 millimeter caliber so it is a massive rocket they don't know exactly what it is they're telling me these these are not laws but that this one is also israeli made. well in the armenian capital there has been an outpouring of support for those trapped in the car of conflict zone people are collecting donations of food clothes other types of supplies to send to the region car about by the way is inhabited almost entirely by armenians many have been left homeless by the ongoing military bombardment we talked to some . of these volunteers in europe and. the us ask us on mind this is

a people with civilian initiative people are donating supplies nonstop here everything is sorted and sent to the warehouse every person in armenia wants to be involved and help in whatever way they can. but the most devoted to the spirit of our people cannot be broken we are all united everyone has their personal grievances against the government and the one else behind them. journalists in the corner are caught up in a car getting caught in the crossfire 24 were injured in a shell of straw and with an include into french reporters they were lifted to your yvonne for treatment on our back in france on thursday a cameraman from an armenian t.v. channel was severely injured during shelling these are pictures of his car now look a bit earlier today i talked to al gore resumed off a journalist from azerbaijan the t.v. channel he described the damage on the side of the border. we have seen. destroyed houses destroyed ambulances destroyed infrastructure is there people from

civil population people that have nothing to do with military actions used to leave their houses refused to leave their region armenians are accusing azerbaijan of targeting civilians we know civilians have lost their lives in this conflict is that what is happening talking about the armenian side that's a complete nonsense the military command it clear that i was there but janet army does not target civilian people as well as. infrastructure that target. army are firing positions. and we were impressed structures in the. other by john 5 doesn't fight against civilians other by john is fighting for liberation it's all territories. donald trump is in the hospital for a 3rd day after contracting covert 19 aside from health concerns the u.s.

president's condition has put alexion plans into disarray including the 2nd round debates with rival joe biden this week's 1st blush was a chaotic of her marred by interruptions a few insults as well donald quarter discussed how it went. listen respectfully to each other's opinions i'm not here to call out his lies everybody knows he's a liar levy use the word smart with me though never use that word because you know what it is nothing smart about you joe what do you shut out excuse one who so you are number 2 he's putin's puppy i get my time back if you are interruptions i'm appealing to you sort of do that him too well frankly you've been doing more than a lot of that event but he does plenty well less than you will he's just shush for a minute what do you do it all that i want in the last 25 years i because i want our life as you do it because you are president things up you are a senator and the worst with resumes america is ever. going. to get any

word with this clown director matters you know now that we're done we're done sir the american people had big hopes for this debate after all it's happening on the backdrop of a global pandemic and a serious economic crisis but based on how both biden and trump conducted themselves i would say most people probably thought they were watching some sort of circus. you should get out of your bunker and get out of the sand trap and get in your golf course and fund what needs to be done now to save lives he wants to shut down this country and i want to keep it open. i had it close to the greatest economy in the history of our country we handed him a booming economy he blew it was it a loon. he already races you say the crime bill 1994 where you call the super predators african-americans the super predators while during the debate the moderator was able to get in a lot of questions that the american people really want answers to how the next

administration is going to handle coronavirus relief racism police brutality of the social unrest but the most important thing of all is how biden or trump actually respond to these questions and voters didn't seem to think that they did a very good job honestly. this is a very painful response and i don't think either of them one this is just terrible all around this is very upsetting to watch that this is the best representation for our country right now i don't think i can say that even if you were one i think it was a twister it was a wild ride to write it when left there was a lot going on there's a lot of interruption it was crazy. to me that i don't think either one of them respected none of the other. and the economy seems to agree with those voters as well because right after the close of this chaotic debate we saw u.s. stock futures take a plunge and wall both political camps have already started making political memes as if they're their guy won the debate everyday voters are really kind of taking

a sort of i'd rather laugh than cry approach. and. there. well we asked former republican state senator john large international affairs experts to free him a clinton for their thoughts on the 1st debate there's little doubt that trump who lost his could pose your he was repeatedly interrupting and. seemed overly emotional and somewhat hysterical i was disappointed to see it in his

side to sort of stoop to that kind of behavior he tends to be very dismissive and goalie and in fact you name call it's certainly not presidential it's not the kind of. behavior that you really want to see any candidate i'm not sure anybody watching had their minds changed except that i do i do see that i think biden's going to have some cleanup to do with the left flank it's inappropriate he just dismissed the president as a liar i'd hate to see the count and how many times he said the president just lies without backing up and being specific about what was dishonest but american politics can be pretty contentious and i think american people sadly are kind of used to it still ahead in the program surfers and beachgoers in russia's far east reports of hundreds of dead sea preachers washed ashore sparking fears of

an environmental disaster we'll delve into that story after the break.

so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy going from day shouldn't let it be an arms race in this spearing dramatic development the only move really i'm going to resist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time to sit down and talk. it in minutes past 11 pm here in moscow welcome back we continue with the weekly recap rushes environmental regulators are investigating a spike in sea pollution in the country's far east the problem was to take it off the coast off come chaka i'm the editor in chief all day russia beyond online magazine visited the area and spoke to us. i'm currently in the post i'm just

a couple of i'm trying to reach there is a make a logical disaster that you can see between just when you get one person away from the sea i spent 4 hours on the collectivistic beach and i didn't see any water or feel color and i didn't smell any pleasant color but at the same time some of my friends were closer to the area of keep me and they come through that he felt some unpleasant odor and it will be left weekly i've seen some death fish on the floor and some dead shellfish but not in the amounts like you've probably seen on some user of the dios i like they were a little bit scattered around the beach they're real like selected that speech there but not like piles of dead sea lion stuff like that i didn't see any big sea . i've talked to some surfers wolf locals and visitors and they confirmed that it's soft and wasn't too water and it hurt their eyes and some of them even had like

chemical burns of. i simply had to consult a doctor and it started 3 weeks ago. definitely something happened here but we don't know where it started we don't know the scale of the disaster and we don't know what has caused the local authorities confirmed that the samples that the to back on september 29th the exceeded the norms 4 times and. 4 times the water so soft and definitely happened can check because gov is overseeing the probe and samples are being sent to moscow for analysis he's warned that any officials who neglected the issue will face consequences. we're currently analyzing what possible harm the incident may have caused my main aim right now is to ensure that what's happened isn't touched up i don't want to fishes to try and downplay its significance a thorough and objective analysis will be provided by the relevant organizations we

will collect additional samples of water sea floor sediment and sand and of dead animals i can tell you right away that if it turns out local officials downplayed this incident or tried to hide it they will be immediately fired and if any federal officials are guilty of the same i will demand similar punitive measures. removing the program all know there is no sign of left op in the post-election unrest sweeping valorous crowds gather in minutes through on sunday 8 weeks after president lucas shank was reelected in a disputed ballots at least 40 people were arrested one point riot police used a water coming truck to target the demonstrators who fought by damaging the vehicle there was a huge security presence throughout the capital 8 subway stations shut down as well for several hours now the march went ahead without so fishel permission it follows almost 2 months of public calls for president lukashenko to resign earlier this

week the european you. unfortunately the russian officials are workings of election rigging and violence against protesters minsk responded by block listing european officials. the f.b.i. has released a short film demonstrating the dangers of chinese intelligence recruitment however the propaganda style video reminded many of the methods used by the us the soviet union during the cold war came up and takes the story. it's the latest hollywood thriller complete with a catchy soundtrack and a script that keeps you on edge however it's meant to be informative it's not a feature film this half hour movie was created by the f.b.i. more knew about chinese intelligence and its efforts to recruit this is someone

targeted on raven who may have sent classified information to chinese intelligence . like many blockbusters it's based on a true story a former cia officer was sentenced to 20 years in prison for passing along information to the chinese and the f.b.i. says that this video is meant to educate the public and alert them about the threat of foreign intelligence recruitment as this movie highlights foreign intelligence services are posing as head hunters and consultants and professional networking sites to aggressively target americans we believe it's critically important to educate the public in order to neutralize this threat from foreign intelligence services well we've seen all those old newsreels talking about the red menace it looks like the propagandists are still in business years later trying.

to buy i'm going to. play. russia had occupied many new territories bringing additional millions of people under communist. china for example but really make. an average american really road worker makes $10.00 a day. times more the who's to say the chinese can't strike back they've got hollywood scenes of their own the. really. want to do a little. just listen to yourself either the usa nor china has actually declared a new cold war but everyone is buzzing about it and the issue of our cold war. the foreign minister suggested it's not just our writings saying that is this

a new cold war we've heard for example u.k. officials are china and the united states headed for a new cold war or is it going to be a hot war the un is even getting in on the hysteria or should we call it and. we must do every scene for the new. we are moving in a very dangerous line action own world cannot afford a future where do too much as the economy speed the globe in a great fraction each with its own through those financial rules and the internet and artificial intelligence capacities yes many of us heard stories from our parents about hiding under their desks in school during civil defense drills the cold war has a special place in american history and now with dueling propaganda films and talk of a red menace from china it seems that the cold war is back the good old days well perhaps we've forgotten how potentially dangerous it is up and r.t.

new york. we also spoke to political is professor joseph gregory mahoney who say he's a u.s. china cold war is already upon us. if we if we follow reports of majority opinions among business leaders and policymakers that there will be likely a war between china and us within the next 10 years so i think that again this is part of the. negative messaging that we see with trump but there is also some credibility that it is an issue that the u.s. wants to check ahead of future conflict we already see many people agree a cold war and tech a cold war growing and frictions between us and china and other countries and international organizations as the u.s. turns against multilateralism some people a lot of people in the d.c. area believe that we're already in a hot cyber war that is are up of the stories that shape these past 7 days and if

you'd like to have your say do head on over to marty's facebook page always plenty of news and views to get stuck into there hope to catch you again in just over 3. and i would go to the birds or head. for the feel good but so. far good. of it is that you. just sit in the mothership it would. be so much to move. the 10 minutes to finish it oh my gosh.

they are the house of. god since we. need. to meet don't need. to scare one of. the learning. system definition in the head and innocent in the names of. the world is driven by shaped by our own person those.

who dares thinks. we dare to ask. a grandmother doing a life for murder was released from prison yesterday after 17 years when i judge said she did not do it susan mellon recently filed a lawsuit against the detective who arrested her for hiding evidence that detective is the same one who arrested reggie. we know as

a society we see the bad guy in the good guy well cops and robbers but when the cop becomes the robber the game is over the game is over s. corruption it was a horrific twist of fate that led to reggie's release bruce was more fortunate this father's death led to an unexpected turn providence was his big thing in any have you know great life insurance and those 184000 that my dad left me and i was able to parlay that up to about 236 stock market and then it was just 100 percent of my time dedicated to my case and that enabled those to hire a private investigator we have essentially a growing more chest of evidence that i have committed the crime or at least that all the evidence that was presented was was false evidence i had received a complaint from i flew up to. the state prison where bruce lister was i spoke to him once somebody is accused.
