how do you wear again when i took it off, i think the people need to take responsibility in their own hands and be prepared if those kinds of weapons were less available. we wouldn't have a lot of shootings and we certainly wouldn't have the number that i i am now convinced that as many as 10 civilians, including up the 7 children, were tragically killed in that's for like it was a mistake. and i all for my sincere apology, i told us, general mis addressed, striking carver last month, killed 10 civilians including 7 children and leaving human rights to claim portions and only own because of increased global crews. protest in support of those arrested during the january 6th ride are held in washington. the run is been peaceful to pipe talks in the media about potential violence.

russians continue to cause that balance in the country that actually the same team, which is going to have the parliament fantastic countries far read. say 3 of the was ah, this is the news and i'll tell you to national with me, you national, bob oliver. hello and welcome to the program. has acknowledged last month's training striking have gone to star killed pen civilians including 7 children and not a single terrorist. washington had initially claimed a strike was necessary to prevent on talk on campbell airport in the final days before americans military with joe. while report have now much to see, i had issued a warning to the u. s. military in the immediate run out to the tragedy saying that civilians including children, were likely in the area. i am now convinced that as many as 10 civilians,

including up to 7 children, were tragically killed in that strike. moreover, we now assess that it is unlikely that the vehicle and those who died were associated with cape or were a direct threat to us forces. that was a mistake. and i offer my sincere apology. here you can see the aftermath of the tribe in a residential area of carnival 3 kilometers from the apples. there was a secondary blast which has believe to have been caused by a gas tank in the driveway. the u. s. military has so far decline to say what that they'll be any disciplinary action. oh oh oh. busy busy busy the me

and i with more details on that story all season we're on gas care for voting from cobble for us. get had been evidence to many and many people that something had gone terribly wrong with this strike you to this is weeks ago, weeks ago because people saw the machine in the immediate aftermath of the explosion. if we had been a car, bob laden with explosives, that many people speculate that the explosion, the devastation would have been much greater. it was a, we also saw that the pictures of grid 3 images of the kids, 7 of them killed during the strike. now the united states maintained that the intelligence behind loose was solid. they claim that they track this vehicle from a presumed isis compound, isis, k. compound, near capital, all the way to this residential district,

just 3 kilometers away from capital international airport. where, of course, at the time of frantic evacuation was due on the way very frantic and with people's nerves freight because everybody backed feared that there would be another terror attack. and the united states says that they surveilled this vehicle as it arrived in this residential neighborhood. they allegedly allegedly, according to witnesses, must have seen all the kids around the car as well as the, the owner of the man. they believed to be a nice suspect carrying containers which turned out to be empty water containers to and from his car. and what we had heard up until now is a lot of mumbling and diversion on behalf of the state department. the pentagon, who were ost grilled by senators and congressmen alike about this as striking about the overwhelming evidence that it had gone again terribly wrong. make no mistake.

no military on the face of the earth works harder to avoid civilian casualties than the united states military. and nobody wants to see innocent life taken as the secretary says, in this statement we, we apologize and we will endeavor to learn from this horrible mistake. and to that end, he has directed a thorough review of the investigation just completed by us central command. what is highly unusual about the submission is that it came so fast because the united states is well known for dragging these things as in, in iraq, in the syria. we have seen incidents of as shrikes, allegedly going wrong. but then the united states taking a year perhaps longer e for tools to admit to an air strike cause in collateral damage killing civilians . usually their investigations are a very drags out, and there is at the end of it,

no disciplinary measures. and despite this incident, being a tremendous blunder from a tactical perspective, as well as from a public relations perspective, the united states says the new disciplinary measures will be taken as of right now . now, what are the reasons that human rights agencies, for example, believe the recent mission came so quickly is because of the huge both political ad, public pressure on the united states to admit to it. it should be noted that the us military was only forced to admit its failure in the strike because of the current global scrutiny on afghanistan. many similar strikes in syria, iraq and somalia have happened to out of the spotlights, and the u. s. continues to not have responsibility will devastate to families suffer in silence while they have said that they're sorry, they have also offered compensation to the families of the victims or presumably

the family because all the civilians killed and they don't like what parts of one family. but we have also heard from the united states the these strikes will go on, they will try to learn the lessons, to quote them of this terrible tragedy. but they also said, please don't take this as, as, as aside the bud diminish ability to strike an ice just targets got to start. and america's last driven strike of the gun came just days after the terrible terror attack goods, capital airports at the north gate, which came the lives of 13 american troops, as well as more than a 100 civilian. but again, this is odd likely to sort of doubt the flames of the political criticism aimed at the bible administration and the state department for what many. he has a fiasco is a humiliating and key author, k arctic and to american presence. and i've got to start off the 20 years of war

and foreign pentagon security, unless miko maloof believes the deadly mistake calls into question. america's modern military context. it is a little unusual for them to admit to a mistake, and they used to be bombings. all the time in syria and northern iraq, they hardly ever admitted to it. the kind of gun really had no choice but to look into it. so the general takes responsibility and they're going to offer compensation that doesn't bring back the lives of these children. and the adults who are killed and it also showed they didn't have good intelligence. and it really throws into question the over the horizon concept that pentagon says it now has and will continue to watch f can a stand for any potential terrorist attacks out of isis or, or al qaeda. it clearly shows that this over the horizon approach is inadequate.

now washington has revealed it will be reassessing, its relations with pakistan and the coming weeks the u. s. believe this law bonds interests and i've got to stand are in conflict with america's ours is china. also arabic spoke to the prime minister pakistan, who says he's disappointed by the hostile attitude of the us and the lack of appreciation for pockets towns role in the going war to blame bug is done for this debacle and honest on it is the most painful thing for us to listen to focus on is the country that give the greatest number of sacrifices to for the american water. and one of the largest sun was off to join this this invasion of a want to sun by the medical become part of the coalition. went pakistan had nothing to do with 911. there was no pakistani involved in it either was in a plan is that there were no militant thought abundant by august time. we had no

reason to enter the war. but unfortunately, on military dictator, at the time, to get accepted it from the americans, he took us into this war. and this war cost bargain on $80000.00. people died in this so this country what we went through the suffering we went through the forget about the people who lost their lives in bon attacks. the last to the economy, the, you know, when you have suicide attacks, islam, what was like the fortress? so the country lost over $150000000000.00 and after all the sacrifice rather than a word of appreciation because they appreciate other people they're saying, you know, what about the of, of ones who help the, the coalition and who, you know, they'll try to look off for getting them to the us. what about purchased on a country loses 80000 people will be turned off children of

a lesser god didn't matter to them and being made good for their failure to understand i think was the most painful thing. the thing that comes out most most significantly is that the taliban government must have an inclusive government because of a son is, is a country of diversity. the, the push to an element of basically a push to movement is roughly half the population. then the dodge acts who have significant minority and then there was backs and, and so from the, for the interest of, of one is on for the long term stability for fun is gone. all of us feel that it must be an inclusive government which, which, which unites of the time. so really that's where we stand today. we will discuss

with all the, the neighbors of a lot of fun and come up with a policy demonstration gathered in washington demanding justice for those arrested during the junior is safe. right? since the storming of the capital building more than $600.00 people have been charged, also contributor knicker house reports. now from the scene. we are here in d. c. where the 1st amendment process is actually happening right behind it. and it seems like people seem to be gathered here for all types of different reasons. some people are here on behalf of some of the processors that have been arbitrarily arrested who have not been charged, have not been around and have not even been given the option to be denied bill. other people who are here protesting a mag around that they were looking for that didn't seem like it actually happen. so as you can see, the entire protest was calm, despite warning from the mainstream media that it would be incredibly violent. all right, those that deny history are doomed to repeat it and we may be thing

a re run of january fix and just a few weeks breaking news long foresman now preparing for the possibility of armed protesters and saturdays far right. rally in support of the january 6 writer. okay, right now i'm security tight at the u. s. capital, the fencing that's back up, the national guard standing by again. it's all because of tomorrow's far right. rally 100 percent for certain that these people were not here for any type of violence. and that there's a good chance that there's some positive relationship that a big could have been created here. which is once again the opposite of what the major media, because we are all, if you listen to the media for what a political ideology really politicians want us to be scared to our whole native capital. on the other side of that things you would think that a positive people response and the protests will yield a minimal minimal response from the kaufman instead, as more calls, unity and more calls for peace began. you actually begin to see more swat team

members arrive a cause in the u. k. has ruled that children under the age of 16 can take you, but say blockers without parental consent because of appeal of attorney and judgement. last year, by the high court all sees shante and what does she have the story forth? trans rights in the u. k. as back in the spotlight again, as doctors are now able to prescribe puberty blockers to under sixteens. again, it can, central london, which runs, you can only use gender identity clinic has one the appeal which revised the 2020 ruling. that under 16 lack the capacity to give the own consent. the judgment upholds established legal principles, which respect the ability of our clinicians to engage actively and thoughtfully with our patients in decisions about their care and futures. it's a firms that it is for doctors not judges to decide on the capacity of um, the 16th to consent to medical treatment. the case was brought by

d transitioning care a bell, who started taking puberty blockers at 16 prescribed mail homeland testosterone and had surgery to remove her breasts. but now in her mid twenties, she regrets a decision to transition. last year, the high court ruled that teenagers were highly unlikely to be able to give informed consent to what described as experimental treatment. nor would they be able to understand and way up the implications following the court's decision, all treatment was been suspended. a new referrals put on hold as well. a view that has now been overturned. it has shown a light into the dark corners of a medical scandal that is carmen children and harm me. obviously disappointed with the ruin of the court and especially that it didn't grapple with the significant risk of harm the children exposed to by being given powerful experimental drugs. they couldn't access though that the whole name blocking treatment is used by specialists to put a pulls on puberty. while young people think about whether it really is something

that they want to do. for many young people struggling with their gender identity, who believe the weight for treatment is far too long? this is a life saving victory, but for care about who wants to take an appeal to the supreme court. the decision today is a step backwards for common sense and my colleague, you know, new put they show puberty block is up for debate. the court is essentially hunting decision making power from the parent to the doctor. the doctor can say no, but the parent can't, does not finally at the right of parents to bring up their their children as they see fit is for the medical professionals, along with ideally the parents. but ultimately, it looks at whether the child on the fax, at the individual case is capable of giving informed consent. and the best person to judge there is the medical practitioner who's fully aware of all the

treatment involves. and the pros and cons, it's fine to say that the doctors and to nations and the regulations need to take responsibility for judging informed consent like children. but we have to accept that say, in, sorry, that failed as an exponential rise of the transition accounts on social media. and so clearly the system has not been working for adolescents so far. we have no idea what the long term results will be in terms of the grant from this current. whoa, whoa, to children going through the system just because one individual person and this case came about. well, it's not one individual, as you know, well, i'm referring to the bad taste. that is the case to decided by the court of appeal yesterday. in that particular case, k rebel has regretted her transition from the selected to do transition back. that

does not give key rebel who is not as far as i'm aware, medically or legally qualified, the right to bring litigation, the aim of which was to overturn their competence and denying access to medical care for transgender children, parents on the whole what, what, what is best for their children, but sometimes you know what children also know what's best for themself. it all depends on the marriage destination of rebel is not acceptable. the, the issue of a child who thinks they will thinks that they are in the wrong body where they learning that song. this is a unique case where children are indoctrinated don't lines for the but they are in the wrong body. no child is born in the wrong body. they are taught missions fact in school. children, all boys or girls based on the feelings and not on last biological sex. they then

go to the tub is so can they have the rather of a girl will be a son? does a poor at the time you stop and yet don't treat her troubleshooting fully a while want to go, because they treat her healthy body to change it to, to, to look night. the biological, you have a voice. russians have been continuing to cause the virus and the 2021 stay do my elections will be taking a closer look at the policies. the candidate says exactly what's at stake, right under the shawn break. the

news. the hey, you know we've moved on from just pricing lots of money and incurring lots of dad for dom reasons to printing lots of money and incurring lots of debt for extraordinarily dom reason the the the, the ah,

the welcome back fontaine to national and our in depth coverage of the election to say do my rush is low house of parliament rushes far east has on to this 3rd and final day of the boat, meaning that the country's political course, the next 5 years will be decided very soon south k taylor and don hawkins, have all the latest about from our specials to year in the heart of moscow. voting . taking place across 3 days, beginning on friday, and ending on sunday lot of space or the voters to get through all that time. both to turn out in election so far was 31.5 percent as a most good time. this saturday. the turn out for online voting is calculated

separately. that stands between 70 and 80 percent of those are just a much higher given miss new electronic voting system, which is available across the 7 region. the voting is limited to those, all of a load russian, cosmo, something international space station are also able to make that choice sky vote on line walter broth voted through one person back on the ground. as you can see, plenty of options for those of the planet. absolutely no shopping costs. now, one path, not shock. he's responsibility vladimir putin who is in a different kind of self isolation. he's also voted on line the russian president is currently in warranty. and after a number of code, cases were recorded among his in the call adapting to the era of the contact mac, russia extended devote some period to 3 days, all designed to limit of course, spread over into the virus. one topic that has been getting

a lot of attention in the run up to the election, not indeed in the last couple of days is the idea of meddling not coming from russian officials. company rush cotton next up looks at how much claims over let you to, for an interference to the barrel pound. of course, whether indeed there's any truth behind them. what is this, if not foreign interference? not a single vote has yet been counted and brushes election, and yet the european parliament is talking about not recognizing the result in bass . the motions saying the block will ignore the outcome. if a deems the vote was enough to european standards, of course not all the lawmakers back, the move with some in that their colleagues over the veiled threat. we surround russia with nathan basis and we call them the aggressor. we support opposition groups and we accuse them a foreign interference. the european project is not being undermined and divided by russia, but by the rank hypocrisy that is characterized in this report. it tells me that it

is time to embark on a positive dialogue with the russian federation is time to stop listening to the american in europe is our continental europe. as of right to make a choice in flavor of good relations with russia, alaska. moscow is not exactly impressed with the move either, but he guessed it was stressed that the russian side has concrete evidence of violations of russian law by the u. s. internet platforms in the context of preparing and conducting the duma elections. it was stated that interference in the internal affairs of our country was categorically and admissible. we had also passed the relevant information through our embassy in washington to the u. s. department of state. well, it's not the 1st time russia has been crying foul over outside interference in the selection. russia has irrefutable pre said us tech giant broke russian law relating to the preparation and holding of the russian state tumor election. interference in our country. internal affairs is entirely unacceptable. first,

let's talk about so called smart voting scheme, that russian opposition activist alex in nevada. and then his team came up with it to try to take away votes from united russia long standing ruling party that supports the kremlin. smart voting suggests you mark your ballot for a rival candidate who's most likely to be the candidate of the united russia in particular, constituency. russian authorities don't say that the tactic is something bad, per se, but they claim there is a link between smart voting and the valid is anti corruption fund, which was labeled and extremist organisation for inciting unauthorized demonstrations and defines of russia's covert roles. but that's just a part of it. according to russia's foreign ministry, certain smartphone apps facilitating smart voting were designed by employees of a firm run by people who have close ties with the pentagon, in the eyes of russian diplomats. this is a clear case of foreign interference in the country as the election. plenty of materials have already been distributed through the communications watchdog and law

enforcement agencies. ip addresses have been identified. it has been established that service and technical support for the smart voting up, mainly come from the u. s. russian officials have shown no intention of letting this one slide and brought the issue during a meeting with the u. s. tech joins with us ambassador in moscow as well as handing over each row of documents regarding the large interference to the state department . the main message is, keep out of our election. it's related to the refusal of some online platforms to remove prohibited content. specific facts were handed over to the american ambassador. he promised to check this information while saying they don't have any intelligence that someone could be breaking russian law. as a result, we've already seen apple and google came into the pressure and take down the valid is ab dedicated to smart voting. however, in many other cases, americus tech giants are failing to comply with russian laws by not removing

illegal content like messages publicly calling on people to take part in an authorized demonstrations. and this is likely to remain the point of tension between moscow. washington and the was big tack as the duma election plays out. meanwhile, most because election authorities have reported 100 attacks on the election service . partly blaming the west. the news comes, as the e u parliament passed a resolution saying it will not recognize the state if russia's election is being fraudulent. and we got reaction to this from political unless the main difficulty right now is the attacks from abroad on our electoral system. this is a direct intervention. the d dos attacks attempts to bring our sites or electronic systems down. obviously we're checking for any hacking, but so far they've been no hacks. it's no technical failures related to these attacks. western partners who are committed to democracy are actually trying to use money today to discredit our elections and democratic procedures. in fact,

by lowering the confidence the russian people have in the institutions of democracy in this makes us very sad because we're ready to develop the democracy. we're building and developing modern processes and technologies. this is something that doesn't have to do with the election. so no, these, the russia phobia that you have in the world. now it's deep inside people of people that embodied minds. they, the, they want to feel like the so even before starting, they think, oh, the elections are really, there is, there is a problem. so i come here as an observer, lots of, of the observers are coming here so we could testify the pros as we could see everything working. so i really, this is the agenda. this is the problem of agenda. even if you have the most transparent collections, the vast collections ever with hulu, of observers, it don't change nothing in my country, for example, there are no observers. so how can i tell that my elections mostly than your, your you at least bring people to,

to watch your election. you bring people to observe your election in my country that not, not such thing. we should question the, this kind of agenda, this kind of strategy there is in the world towards russia. i think obviously the west is always a bit nervous with russia. and when it comes to elections that shows up all the way politicians are elected can vary from country to country. so let's look at the process here in russia. 450 m. p 's from 225 electoral districts will be chosen to the state duma for 5 year term half are elected by majority voting based on one m. p per constituency. the remaining 225. a made up by parties that part 5 percent threshold to get through. let's take a look at how both parties hoping to win the thieves so fast amid the green alternative party, one of the new comers in the race for the deem until last year. it was just a social movement with an environmental agenda back, so use climate movement,

cold friday for future with which organizes campaigns and petitions and is inspired by grad hatton bug. next we have the communist party of the russian federation, 76 year old. again, not gonna believe that and has been since depart his creation. in 1993, they c p. r asked pleasure to deliver a modernized version of socialism. it wants to re nationalize natural resources and agriculture, while providing more support for small businesses. in the past 4 elections is finished, 2nd to united russia. moving oh, now we have a socially conservative party of pensioners. it brightens itself as constructive opposition. some of its key manifesto, pleasures are higher health care spending and improving the lives of the elderly. the movement got close to 2 percent of the vote in 2016 you're up to date and more news and about 30 minutes. but.
