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 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 in forcing the troops 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. . meanwhile the conflict is again spill beyond the confines of the disputed

daughter district we hear shells exploding no more than a few 100 meters from us fighting continues along the forms line and surveillance are called in the media for example yesterday during a funeral procession shell exploded at a girl if you are killing 5 people and one thing you know the 5 shells heat also residential buildings and then when ruled people here in dark leave their nerves never knowing when shells are start falling again. the french president to manual mccrone has branded the beheading of a history teacher in a paris suburb an islamist terror attack a man killed the teacher after he reportedly showed his class cartoons of the prophet mohammed during a lesson earlier in the month. thank you.
4:07 am
for. one of our compatriots was murdered because he taught freedom of expression the freedom to believe or not a belated expose you are going to crash it was the victim of an islamist terror attack and the thought that the or just 9 arrests have taken place following searches overnight following that attack that terror attack in that region to the northwest of paris when the stand one is a minor and 2 are parents of children to attend did the school where the 47 year old history teacher has been named by french media as samuel patty taught this is the reaction from the ground. it is the school that is attacked it is the public school of acres attached to secularism that is attacked the shock is obviously
4:08 am
considering that the alleged attacker tweeted a picture of that attack and posted your own social media house since being removed but in the post he said he killed the 47 year old teacher because he had shown those images of the prophet mohammed but the mom at the grand mosque in bordeaux has hit out at this attack describing it as vile and saying that there was no reason for it to have taken place whatever the thought the believe even the insult the caricature of the other nothing justifies the fact of killing is so it is a mortal capital soon to kill a person like that to carve his throat like that all because it showed caricaturists of the prophet charlie hebdo the satirical magazine which has previously published contrave. sure cartoons of the prophet mohammed has also tweeted about the attack saying intolerance has crossed a new threshold in france and of course ringback it was recently at the center of
4:09 am
another terror attack in here in france after we publishing those controversial cartoons to coincide with the start of the terror trial relating to the attack on their offices back in 2015 in which 12 people lost their lives 3 weeks ago an 18 year old man angered by that stabbed 2 people outside the formal offices and this of course also comes as there is this big discussion here in france about separatism and how to deal with it president raekwon recently set out his stall single be a new draft law this deed to be presented towards the end of the year as part of that draft law homeschooling will be banned for the majority of people apart from in health circumstances arabic will now be taught in schools rather than in mosques because of fears of potential indoctrination but many will wonder where the that will be enough given that recent polls show that almost 3 quarters of young muslims
4:10 am
under the age of 25 who responded to that poll so that they would put their faith above that of the republic so a real question of soul searching question going on here in france as it remains under this cloud of terror with people asking where that this new more will be enough to to fight the rot or whether it's too little too late. again i'm joined now on the line by gilbert doctrove dependent political analyst very good morning to you girl but. was quick to brown this an act of terrorism. why do you think we're still seeing attacks such as this in particular in france it seems. well the reasons are numerous. economics of crossovers and they're just too of all too many of these although the night is the peoples of the muslim settlers in are among the poorest and all are living.
4:11 am
in virtual ghettos of the church were built with good intentions but have the effect of isolating them on the periphery of major cities like. i think mr micron was very quick to move in on sees that round he is quite an opportunist and this this horrible event provides him with a very good platform for appealing to conservative thought to serve it is. difficult to use trends which are quite considerable i think it bears bears on this story to note that today's issue of the figaro. the conservative dead in newspaper which normally would be the supporter of people out of talkers we have come out and denounced in an editorial the events of yesterday wonder that under the very clear
4:12 am
title of freedom versus barbarism or the civilization of civilization will come 1st that is raised to a major new lesson of what happened yesterday i think this whole. french are making a fetish but it's late in the speech and the charlie hebdo journal has used the most provocative and outrageous as a sions to promote itself intriguing subscribers or their commercial interests. but it's a question of liberty of speech that is off paramount and they are abusing me by this as the term so someone must be. that savage murder one of the worse was during . orientation introduce him to a classroom a subject which he knew be very divisive to the point where he instructed his
4:13 am
students the numerous muslim students who were in his class to leave the room they didn't want them to go so we knew this going into another to terrible mistake it's a question of the educational system for us to recognize the explosion in us of this issue if you're treated with we just hear. a micron has proposed a new law that in theory puts secular values ahead of religious ones is that a move that will do you think improve the situation ease tensions take france in a better direction i think it will be helpful in the. claws of the problems because it's probably a very good idea. however as i said i think the driving force in the resentments of occasional violence of the muslim communities in france is at the moment that has to be left with measures. ok many thanks for your time
4:14 am
gilbert doctora independent political analyst is my guest. still out on r.t. authorities in kamchatka trying to get to the bottom of an ecological disaster that devastated the region's marine life we'll hear from the governor there after the break. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy confrontation let it be an arms race. dramatic. only and. i don't see it. will be successful very critical time to sit down and. when you look. you know it's it's been 153 years since emancipation when you look at it's been 400 years right since black people have been in the u.s.
4:15 am
and extract in their labor for the construction of the country and then you think that black people on about 2 percent of us wealth in a disproportionately high is category almost everything that's negative i just don't see that that i don't see how anybody anywhere it could find that as as a we. welcome by authorities in russia's region of come check say that a so-called red tide is the main cause of massive marine life destruction 1st reported off the coast in early october but some are questioning the conclusion that a phenomenon caused by a toxic algae bloom is the blight
4:16 am
a red tide event that's when large masses of sea microorganisms analogy grow exponentially in a given area killing off other marine life this is down to the fact that some of those i'll give produce toxins all other types deplete the water of oxygen as they grow and subsequently decompose discuss the environment. disaster and ways to mitigate its impact with jack as governor but the missile that. mr governor thank you very much for doing this we really appreciate to understand where we stand mr governor would you officially call what happened in kentucky and environmental disaster there are several worst week where we may use to describe what happened these are or in just a phenomenon and never the worst so we. say for sure the scale of this phenomenon is biribi repressive and a large part of of well we're sure was about these message deaths of. 20 of around 20 people we're harmed in the we're seek after the conflict with the
4:17 am
ocean water so what is happening is very very serious and we know very grateful for the concern of the same society and it could logical to vist all of 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 or it can ecological disaster is you wish. and now we're talking about the red tie as the main course for this right as far as i understand absolutely when they say for sure right now the winds were dead because of the radar it's because of the micro-organisms of the. waters but the fact the we don't know until now is the reason of tights because
4:18 am
in the previous years we never faced so. 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 around 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 in 7 days to completely change your mind i am not specialist in biology i am not a scientist and as a simple person living can chart of course for me when i heard that 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 it world ocean and i used to believe too serious scientists who now say that it is not
4:19 am
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 this 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 i think. smallman to i still consider another factor as well we are considering all the facts and to be a want to of course we do we i mean it human beings to do or serious psychological harm to our nature on there is a number of technological factors that may influence over me they're not of such importance because i remind that we see now of the death of 100 miles on the ocean
4:20 am
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 me come chart 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 concerned about the political situation to come charkha who wants to investigate all the facts and all the analytics we care that is why we publish every day all the results of analysis taken in hundreds of numbers on our official website
4:21 am
and we invite all in a logical organization doesn't matter where it is non-governmental organization from russia or abroad to pretty stupid and i welcome everybody who wants to participate in these. in this investigation moreover i wrote several letters to our international collegiate or to 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 and discussion has 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 all of us to these to this disaster are you going to invite them to kentucky
4:22 am
or due to chronic virus make their work will be done remotely i ask to a russian government to. nominate the scientific board there to be responsible for further investigation from scientific point of view because i'm not a researcher i don't understand much in biology of a sci fi caution i hold that during this week these scientific boards 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 and i guess the 1st step will be remodeled but then i will be glad to host here research has been used to getting in the field what is happening with our caller
4:23 am
yeah the red tide is a global phenomenon indeed and we're seeing these in the u.s. mexico tail e. . 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 you could encounter could happen in 970 s. the sort even given a human there's after eating seafood influenced by a reptile it's now the level the. in march of doc's 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 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
4:24 am
human being are doing to the ocean in global scale there too much of this higher ocean is giving their response to us to humans seeing that enough and 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 duel to avoid repeating. a serious red. mess of death or 100 viands in future yes i 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 out signals and talking to us yes a way like what change our behavior completely it's doesn't seem to be possible and
4:25 am
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 organization of institutions that are investigating making an analysis of what happening in the air and in water but there is no universal platform or just to what stop shop for people interested in this information what is even more. important that we should green interface for those who want to pretty simply to share the defaulters the video with the griffith eggs solved and researchers could hear the holistic commission as far as this possible the 2nd one used a very thorough work on our past because logical hard it is to do in our earth you know one region you speaking about come check 3rd thing is that we should change
4:26 am
the way we think about ecology wish me were behave in a more responsive interval i mean we should stop in every day life using so much close to producing so much liter grunewald the ecological thrill of behavior you're absolutely right that we can it change the behavior in one day but we should start right now because otherwise consequences might be very very hard very important and what we see right now you know where the logical system income childcare is just an example now let's go back to this is astor 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 happens next
4:27 am
we're steps we're taking and what possible reason this potential causes were investigated i reacted to mediately and i asked those who are responsible for making analysis on the quality of water to do it on the same day and after that every day with it hundreds often nurses and hundreds of investigations in order to try to define what is the poisoning. substance the think we are surprised. it would could identify these again these this posing substance we tried a gated again and we investigated all our all over potentially dangerous. logical objects close to the moon to the ocean shore but found nothing around to 5 or 6 days scientists started to talking about these nature will nature will reason and it is now
4:28 am
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 to preserve. and i wish you every 10 a quick recovery thank you so much thank you and thank you for your concern us and in your interest in what is happening i'm sure will make our work and showed and that will lead even a better place to leave you're watching starting to national thanks for your company this morning update in half an hour.
4:29 am
i want to look i want to. believe but there are also friends that the arts are still slow but they're still beautiful thing to do something. like this if they are going with a love that you know. americans love by and.
4:30 am
this was a fundamental part of how our political leadership and our country at large understood the bargain you get a hope and then you know rebel right as the things you don't revolt if you have a stake in the system. and be really interesting to dial it back and think about the longer deeper history housings men in the united states not just that question of the american dream the bigger question of who the dream is and for. join me every thursday on the alex simon show and i'll be speaking to guest on the world of politics sports business i'm show business i'll see you then.
