it's kind of worried almost everything negative i just don't see that i don't see how anybody could find that as a we. standing in one of the craters left by the bombardment it's about 8 meters in diameter correspondent reports from the war torn. region where shelling has intensified despite a cease fire between the belligerents armenia and azerbaijan. there have also been attacks outside the disputed territory with civilian casualties reported in raids on the cities. to france where a teacher was beheaded after reportedly showing his class cartoons of the prophet mohammed. and washington rejects russia's proposal to extend a major nuclear arms treaty between the nations just months away from expired.

by their very good morning to you thanks for joining us here on r.t. international. the capital of the disputed nagorno-karabakh region has been struck by several powerful explosions overnight despite a now weeklong cease fire agreed between armenia and azerbaijan reports on the ground raid sirens went off multiple times but the extent of the damage is currently unclear locals took cover in their basements the rockets are believed to have also struck the area that surrounds the city pictures from one of the nearby villages injuries have been reported. the number of regions where fighting has flared up in the going to karabakh has been growing since tensions between back you and your advantage over the disputed territory boiled over at the
2:02 am
end of september the 2 sides are trading accusations of attacks blaming each other for civilian casualties and damage inflicted and socials president meanwhile announced that his country has reclaimed 3 cities in they're going to care about something armenia denies our correspondent is in the region and reports on what life is like there after the latest strikes this place could very easily be mistaken for the front line of nagorno karabakh but it isn't it's a small sleepy village of. also commonly known as red bazaar and last night it was battered by a very fire standing in one of the craters left by the bombardment it's about 8 meters in diameter. it was about 7 o'clock i wanted to park the car in the yard because the bombs had been dropped there. the castalian explodes and splinters everywhere with a radius up to a few 100 meters today for example my house wasn't damaged but our neighbor's
2:03 am
windows were smashed someone's roof was broken we're already used to it. like all villages of nagorno karabakh red bazaar resembles a ghost town it's not the 1st time that has been bombed in this escalation there's also a monotonous rhythm made by the sounds of artillery fire coming from over the horizon but those who have chosen to stay are saying that they have gotten used to this new and gruesome soundtrack to their lives his sister the kind of life can that be during war everyone hides in basements even if a bomb drops a kilometer away all the houses shake when we know that it's close to others of course it's scary especially when the bombs dropped nearby but i'm not going to leave anyway all the youngsters and men stayed here some of them are serving in the army depending on their age but here it's just an echo of the fighting that is raging some 50 kilometers to the south from here around the town of drought there
2:04 am
is no way of saying for sure who is in control of this heavily contested region which is considered to be the gateway into nagorno-karabakh thing is it's one of the biggest problems about covering this conflict the lack of opportunities to independently verify the claims of both sides but one fact is certain the fighting there is absolutely brutal despite the ceasefire that was announced a whole week ago but as of now there's no mechanism of enforcing the truce on the ground and as long until this mechanism is implemented the fighting won't seize by itself and we've done of reporting from the going to karabakh r.t. . we've all the computers again spill beyond the confines of the disputed territory azerbaijan claims 12 people were killed in a shelling raid in the early hours of saturday morning dozens were injured in azerbaijan 2nd largest city of gunja rescue efforts are ongoing residential buildings reportedly were hit in the attack it's not the 1st time the city's been
2:05 am
targeted according to these very side 9 people were killed there in a previous assault. another azerbaijani city talk talk repeatedly under fire this week who accuses yerevan of carrying out those attacks. day and azerbaijani journalist reports now from the. i am is it tour to region office servage and it is safe here now but a few days ago simply turning on all camera lights would have restarted with guns firing at any source of flight do regions. and go on boy. to the wire for armenian armed forces for example will be in the. daughter district we hear shells exploding no more than a few 100 meters 4 mos fighting continues along the forms line and civilians are called in the media for example just ago during
2:06 am
a funeral procession shell exploded. killing 5 people in one day and another 5 shells he also residential buildings and the main road people here in charge are leave by their nerves never knowing when shells were start falling again . the french president among your microphone has branded the beheading of a history teacher in a paris suburb an islamist terror attack a man killed the teacher after he reportedly had showed his class cartoons of the prophet mohammed during a lesson earlier in the month. 80 a scenic one of our compatriots was murdered because he taught freedom of expression the freedom to believe or not i believe express you are compassionate was the victim of an islamic terror attack and the thought that they will use. let's go live to paris now our correspondent arwa damon ski's been following this story charlotte turlock a monstrous attack what details do we have about her when step 4 people being
2:07 am
arrested including a minor all understood to be related to the alleged assailant of that a capitation old 47 year old history teacher as you mentioned that he had recently been reported by parents for apparently showing a caricature of them was important to him it in a class that was discussing freedom of speech he had though according to the father of one child in a class said to the muslim students or the cost that they could leave so they wouldn't be shocked by that image and we understand that they were also someone screaming at god it's great gesture of all that's happened ation took place and that's what alerted the police unfortunately the 47 year old teacher was killed before the police arrived on the scene they shot a man who was by unleashing life who later died from his injuries the case is now being taken over by the terror prosecutor and across the scene what has been set at
2:08 am
present back on was on the scene all fired a lot of. the most of the deal. i want to say to all the teachers are from that we stand with them i'm secure and his and the violence goes with it will not win again you know they will not divide us in this is what they are looking for and we must all stand united in this be in shock and horror here in france at this late story attack a lot so reaction including that from the animal all through the grand mosque in budo described this as being violent behavior saying that whatever they thought the belief or it means salt of the caricature that nothing justifies this killing also reaction from solely every day which is this terrible magazine air france which just published these caricatures in the past of the prophet mohammed which is really sort of raised and again led to the 2015 terror attacks they retreated in
2:09 am
support of the teacher and stanley saying that essentially intolerance to just cost and mean threshold turning sick of course shortly afterwards in new serra fronts at that it's at was that the reason why another terror attack took place when an 18 year old stabbed syrian individuals outside that small office and that's because the magazine had really published those caricature as basic course all comes at the same time while france is trying to deal with separatism present apple gave a massive speech just a few weeks ago in which she said that france had to fight back against that and any deviation away from the secular nature of the republic and liberate the country from foreign influence in your is deemed to be published soon there will see arabic today in schools probably in mosques so that they can be no potential indoctrination of old young children and religious organizations and societies will also be clamped down on that there be
2:10 am
a closer scrutiny of those now also being home schooling this also comes in. you know at indigo products as a whole so almost 3 quarters of young muslims there isn't the it's $25.00 so they put best face of both the republic elites on the ground state is that 4 individuals have been harassed and then to say that they're all only members of elects a traitor of this latest brutal terror attack and i thank you with the latest on that attack in france yesterday. we spoke to the former secretary of the french national front abroad who says that the government isn't doing enough to fight back against terrorism unfortunately this continued to happen every month we have another gruesome story those who preach hatred those can be they can be sent back to different countries they can be put in jail i mean again we have laws to protect
2:11 am
the french citizen from those things to happen and whatever if macross talking about it now and again that's a good thing but if he doesn't have the courage to implement the rules and regulations then we will continue to see the situation i mean when we have someone you know decide that it's ok to you to decapitate another person i mean there's no there's no room for for for discussion. has decided to talk about it and that's a good thing however in terms of acts i think we're far from what should be done one of the major issues that you know that can describe the situation we're in right now it's mess of immigration and that's not uncontroversial. washington and moscow are at odds over the extension of a major nuclear arms control treaty this is after the u.s. pushed back against for them approved its proposal to extend it without preconditions for another year and has more. as the clock ticks on the last
2:12 am
remaining u.s. russian arms control treaty the united states and russia seem to be locked in a stalemate while most are suggesting an unconditional 5 year extension of the treaty the us wants quite extensive changes which must go as called quite simply unrealistic now speaking early on friday president putin made a strong call to save the pact when you're used to losing i have a suggestion to prolong the existing treaty without any conditions for at least one year in order to have the opportunity to hold talks on the move the matter is regulated by such treaties and not to leave all the countries in the world interested in the preservation of strategic stability without such a fundamental document as destroyed did you can this reduction treaty and things between the 2 have escalated quite quickly with the u.s. even responding with threats if the conditions are not less. the united states is serious about arms control that will keep the entire world safe we hope that russia
2:13 am
will re-evaluate its position before a costly arms race ensues now the issue is that washington wants a framework for a new trilateral treaty that covers all nuclear warheads and includes those of china in the future something which russia has objected to the new strategic arms reduction treaty otherwise known as the new start treaty was signed in 2010 by u.s. president barack obama and russian president dmitry medvedev and the plan to limits each country to no more than $1550.00 deployed nuclear warheads and $700.00 deployed missiles and bonus and envisages sweeping on site inspections to verify compliance but the treaty is set to expire in feb 2021 so time is really of the essence here and the lack of an agreement and of course the tone of rhetoric between the 2 sides as raise concerns within the un it is imperative that the russian federation and united states of america extend with. the new start treaty for the duration of 5 years for the sake of all of our security the world must
2:14 am
return to a common past towards nuclear designs now as you may remember last year saw the breakdown of the $987.00 intermediate range nuclear forces treaty so the new start is the only nuclear arms control pact between the 2 sides that remains so needless to say the stakes are extremely high points to be taken in washington just like in washington would you don't think you can increase the danger to. the existence of all these weapons it's. a low point i think there were points there were more than twice the very closely watched of the war but over the last 30 years or so you know there are some. you know. who are. i can see a monstrous imes production nuclear arms production our military industrial
2:15 am
spending is the most. number one cost for that and. so there are very strong elements in the united states and in the trunk. oh we're going to see a new arms race because it will mean immense when once that's. done i'll take all parties in kamchatka trying to get to the bottom of the ecological disaster it's devastated the region's marine life we'll be hearing from the governor that after the break. i am. you know when the family 1st said back in february the question i posed to the global audience was will this be a crisis sufficient enough to override the ability of central banks to paper over
2:16 am
the crisis because for the last 30 years every crisis whether it's a market crash or the 2000 subprime crash or a hurricane or ecological or depopulation or wars always been met with paper printing by the central banks as long as the interest rates keep going down there's no penalty for issuing all that paper as we've seen now for 40 years the interest rates have gone down so now here we are in the end of the year the question again is is the crisis big enough to not be able to be fixed by central bank money printing.
2:17 am
back authorities in russia's region of say that they so-called red tide was the main cause of massive marine life destruction which was 1st reported off east coast but. some are questioning the conclusion a phenomenon caused by a toxic algae bloom is the blind a red tide event that's where large masses of sea microorganisms and i'll grow exponentially in a given area and so kill off other marine life this is down to the fact that some of those produce toxins all of the types deplete the water of oxygen as they grow and subsequently decompose we discuss the environmental disaster in the ways to mitigate its impact with can chat because governor. mr governor thank you very much for doing this we really appreciate to understand where. stan mr governor would you officially call what happened in kentucky and environmental disaster there are several worse week where we may use to describe what happened these are or in just a phenomena and never the worse we. say for sure the scale of this
2:18 am
phenomenon is biribi repressive and a large part of our shore was touched by these message deaths of. 20 of around 20 people were harmed and they were seek after the conflict with the ocean water so what is happening is very very serious and we are now very grateful for the concern of the scientific society and it could logical activists all over the world. who want do all the good to know for sure what really happened what are the causes and what the consequences of these nature of the phenomenon oric an ecological disaster is huish. and now we're talking about red tide as the main cause for this right as far as i understand absolutely when we say for sure right now the winds were dead because of the radar it's because of the
2:19 am
microorganisms that appeared to be. our waters by the fact the we don't know until now is the reason of tights because in the previous years we never faced so large scale it's yes it happens sometimes in some base of charkha but for the last 15 years we never faced such an impressive dearth of were a marine life right a week ago in one of your interviews mr gavin you mentioned the red tide saying initially i didn't take it seriously to be on it so what happened 7. ways to completely change your mind i am not specialist in biology i am not a scientist and as a simple person living. of course for me when i heard that
2:20 am
those microorganisms. could cause such a mess of deaths of. a 1000000 inhabitants of our hard drive once was like a joke but we know very few about ocean and i used to believe do serious scientists who now say that it is not a unique phenomenon that we faced it before not in such scale but still and they explain very slowly what the mechanisms we are happening in the cost of these this fact are going to come back to the international cooperation but at the 1st finish where the causes is the red tide the only reason for the mass deaths . of sea life nikken task that they smell and i still consider another factor is as well we are considering all the facts and to be honest of course we do we i mean human beings do or serious psychological harm to our nature on there is
2:21 am
a number of technological factors that may influence our nation they're not of such importance because i remind that we see no of the death of 100 miles on the ocean shore of several 100 kilometers it is impossible to influence with a given acknowledgeable course but nevertheless my point is that we should do all we can do to make come charkha purest and then we'll take a logical really responsive and safe place on our us but there are still those who do not agree with the official explanation it's not a secret for your course mr governor. and they still insist that it is a man made. disaster and what would you say to that our response is very simple it is the absolute openness and transparency we invite everybody who is
2:22 am
concerned about the political situation to come charkha who wants to investigate all the facts and all the analytics we care of that is why we publish every day all the results of analysis taken in hundreds of numbers on our official website and we invite all ecological organization doesn't matter where it is non-governmental organization from russia or abroad to participate and i welcome everybody who wants to participate in these. in this investigation moreover i wrote several letters to our international police to all the researchers scientists abroad in the in the best in universities in tokyo in beijing in mit boston in california technological university we already have some some
2:23 am
and discussion with them it is not official collaborations to you and i think that we should in ours we should organize a kind of international conference to discuss results and and possible reaction of of all of us to these to this disaster are you going to invite them to contact car or due to chronic virus pentad make they work well with and remotely i asked a russian government to do a nominee the scientific board that will be responsible for further investigation from same point of view because i'm not a researcher i don't understand much in biology or of a sci fi. caution i hope that during this week the scientific board will be appointed and their task will be to continue field it is to get into organized this conference of course know we are in in complicated situation due to 19
2:24 am
and i guess the 1st step will be remodeled but the then i will be glad to host here research has been used to getting in the field what is happening with our caller yeah the red tide is a global phenomenon indeed and we're seeing this in the u.s. mexico tailing. i understand there are a few details so far but maybe there is any explanation for now why it happened in kentucky and why now it is not for the 1st time it could. happen in 970 s. . sort even given a human deaths after eating seafood influenced by it's now the level the mart of folks occasion is less serious but still we move may say that even in this region in this part of pacific ocean it happens from time to time
2:25 am
scientists do not have the answer why right now it happened of course we had very warm summer and climate change may influence different processes in the ocean and in the year is the heart of that human being are doing to the ocean in global scale there to much of this higher ocean is giving their response to us to humans saying that enough you should stop you should change something in your behavior i absolutely i most of the sure myself that we have human caused the reasons of this phenomenon and we should ask. ourselves what we should do what we should change do. to avoid repeating. serious read such mess of death of 100 violence in future yes i
2:26 am
understand this is among the priority questions right now what white should be done to prevent this to happen in the future while the mother nature he's sending us signals and talking to us yes a way like what changed our behavior completely it's it doesn't seem to be possible and one day i would suggest the 1st thing to do is to implement. the holistic monitoring of the marine ecology because right now there are dozens of off organization of institutions that are investigating making an analysis of what happening in the ear and in water but there is no universal platform or just what stop shop for people interested in this information what is even more important that we should create the interface for those who want to pretty stupid to share they are the folders the videos with the griffith tags solved and
2:27 am
researchers could hear the holistic as far as the possible the 2nd one is a very thorough work on our past because logical hard that is to in our earth you know one region speaking about come charkha 3rd thing is that we should change the way we think about ecology which should make our behavior more responsive more in terms of i mean we should stop in our everyday life using so much plastic producing so much liter promoed ecological friendly behavior you're absolutely right that we can it change the behavior in one day but we should start right now because otherwise. might be very very hard very important and we see right now you know where killers tickle system income child care is just an example now let's go back to this is astor
2:28 am
a kentucky is facing right now to the beginning of that as far as i remember you received the 1st signals from surface some of whom you met before and this is how you saw the tag on social media and if i'm not mistaken it was on september 29th right around there week after he officially became kentucky's governor so what exactly happened next we're steps we're taking and what possible reason this potential causes were investigated i reacted to mediately and i asked of those who are responsible for making analysis of the quality of water to do it on the same day and after that every day with it hundreds of analysis and hundreds of investigations in order to try to define what is the poisoning. substance the think we are surprised is with who did identify these again these disposing substance we tried again and again and we investigated all all over potentially dangerous.
2:29 am
knowledgeable objects close to noon to the ocean shore but found nothing around to 5 or 6 days scientists started talking about these nature will nature will reason. it is now a dominant version that is so mr governor thank you so much for your time we really appreciate i wish you good luck with your efforts to save nature and to preserve. and i wish your region a quick recovery thank you so much thank you and thank you for your concern and your interest you know what is happening i'm sure will make our work and showed in every player that even a better place to leave. ok if you'd like to know more about that story and indeed others we have the more covered on our website had to come.
