sports like gymnastics in swimming here is that documentary, see it on our t ah, investigation found no violation of law including the law of war. a u. s. investigation concludes that an august drone, striking capital that kill 10 aft down civilians was not caused by misconduct or negligence. of that coming up in the program can yet re launches a decade old probe into the murder of a young woman, allegedly at the hands of a british soldier. we hear from her family about claims of a high level cover up we only recently learned that the british army were involved because there has been lot of cover ups . my wish is that the culprit faces, the no, i feel so sad that it's those her in position to help us that took so long and
7:01 am
businesses across the u. s. brace for a likely vaccine monday being pushed by that by the administration. we speak with an airline pilot, who fears it could lead to job losses. the government isn't saying what the accommodation will be for you if you choose to continue not to get vaccinated. a lot of people fear, and i think rightly so that they could end up on the street. ah, 247 use live from moscow. this is the news, our and our to the pleasure to have your company. my name's union o'neill. the u. s . military house concluded not a botched. drones strike in afghanistan in august was not unlawful and showed no
7:02 am
sign of negligence. doubts despite the strike killing 10 civilians including 7 children and not a single tourist. the u. s. or force inspector general announced the pro plantings . the investigation did found no violation of law including the law of war. did find execution errors confirmed by confir may or a combined with confirmation bias and communication break, the breakdowns that regrettably lead to civilian casualties. what essentially the pentagon is saying that their own investigation has found them not guilty. what they have said is that as we heard execution error as well as communication breakdowns and other big things of what are, what are to blame and all of this. so they can get away with without pinning the blame on anyone. in particular, the full report, ease, ease, redacted and classified for security reasons. they say, nevertheless, the pentagon says that this would investigation was independence. and that they
7:03 am
questioned 20 non people who are related to this matter. 2922 of them directly related in the strewn stripe. and which at the time the pentagon called a righteous strike and we withdrew, which we would later learn in the weeks following was booth a tragedy. and last flew . busy ah, the pentagon also concluded that all involved all the people, the question and all who are responsible for the stone trial that they acted in good faith, that they legitimately believed that they were preventing an imminent terror attack against the the airport and u. s. troops stationed at cavil international airport. more than that,
7:04 am
they say they claim that they track this man for this aid work, who worked for a usaid company at that they tracked him for many hours before the and that at that point, they legitimately believed he was trafficking exclusives. that is, that is the important thing that they say both triggered the drug truck and allowed this, these messed to happen is this huge, huge casualty 7 kids as well as 3 adults. and what they're arguing is at the time and we were, we were there towards the end of august, our team we. so 1st had, there was no plan, it was absolute chaos. every action was, was improvised. every day was a new day without any sort of plan as to how things would be resolved. evacuation was winding down after the terror attack under $26.00, in which more than a dozen us servicemen would kill a $170.00 afghans. there was also fear there was also tara, both a, both amongst the, the civilian population, as well as among
7:05 am
u. s. troops and foreign troops stationed at the airport. everyone believed at the time and we were expecting at the time, more terror attacks at the airport. that shootings perhaps another, another bombing, and obviously that may have contributed to this decision to go ahead with a strong track. there are all sorts of unanswered questions with regards to this report, such as how they didn't see this multitude of children playing around the car. they obviously targeted the vehicle, the bomb was very precise, the miss out. it struck the vehicle and they were all these kids around that they. so there is the opinion that the june operators must have seen the kids and must have decided to go along with this strewn truck. they must have deemed the thread to, to severe. but we had previously spoken to drew operators. former drew operators in the u. s. military and they had described a gung ho attitude in the service. the sergeant comes down and turns around. mel
7:06 am
goes in the military progress. he says, your job is to kill people and break things. so you got all these young enlisted deeds and girls. garzon guys who are out of high school grab no experience in anything who are now. basically video game snipers, for months of training, are made. they put in the position to make this decision mental degradation with the proper term. every shot that we took, like they're cheering their congratulating each other. they're high fiving each other, people getting promoted because of this stuff. it's like a withering away of who you are. i was told one day going in that president obama himself would hollis up and give the order himself to me. and i got this euphoric feeling we had previously heard from the pentagon, that no disciplinary action was, was being claimed that this report doesn't include any recommendation for disciplinary action against any individual. those responsible for this, for this disastrous,
7:07 am
as striking. that may be bitter news for relatives in the family of those killed to swallow. but because obviously they had previously said that they would uh they would renounce any claim to compensation so long as those responsible were punished . asthma canadian, it was, i will keep demanding that each person who has committed a crime here must be convicted and punished with the due process of law. in some fair, if a person commits a crime and then a different person is brought to court to answer, the criminal must be punished, no scapegoats. if americans committed a crime, they must be brought to justice. in this case, it appears that the pentagon has renaming the crime on the system and on vague mistakes that nobody can really be held accountable for. previously, the u. s. government had said that they would offer compensation to the, to the family and relatives abuse the brewer that would kill. but the report also has recommendations. 3 various recommendations to make sure the incidents like this
7:08 am
don't happen again to minimize civilian casualties in the future. but for now it's, it's business as usual, nothing's changed in the way that these room strikes are handled or, or carried out. and perhaps all these recommendations will stay in the future. just that recommendations broadcasting of taking us through that. we also spoke to a former us marine corn intelligence officer, scott ritter. he believes there was no justification for the drone strike in the heavily populated city. there is nothing but negligence here from the beginning when they identified or miss identified the target to the end, when the decision was made to pull the trigger. i can't see a single legitimate reason to go forward. and yet everybody did go forward. and if they're not being honest about it and saying that mistakes are made, this is going to happen again. this isn't the 1st time we fired a missile as killed civilians. it isn't the 2nd time, 3rd time board time in the hundreds time. and the reality is the united states as
7:09 am
known for some time now that a procedures it has in place. it carry out counter terrorism strikes in a real world, you know, real time an event or are not sufficient to the task that we kill civilians. and yet we went forward anyways of because there was political pressure being placed on the military to be seen as doing something can other story we are closely following to day, kenyon has reopened a criminal probe into the horrific murder of a woman, allegedly, by a british soldier, the single mother was beaten, stopped and dumped in a septic tank back in 2012. her family believes that details of the case were all harsh them. league you the, i did johnny. we recently learned that is the british army vault because there were a lot of cover alps today. but we are glad that now think of being brought to light my wishes, the culprit to face the law because i had to be
7:10 am
a burden that wasn't mine because i had my only children to take care of. though i was not employed, it has been a real struggle. the family of agnes when 0 when jacko. a canyon woman allegedly killed by a british soldier, is crying foul as they are yet to receive justice. almost 10 years after her death . when jack, who was a 21 year old sex waka, any money to feed her newborn baby, and she was reported missing in march of 2012. 2 months later, her body was found in a hotel septic tank near to where british soldiers had been stationed till now. no soldier has been question though. it's been revealed that a british soldier named only a soldier ex confessed to killing her. i feel so sad as though some positions to help us that took so long recently when the me death started air in the story top and old. once it's like agnes has just died. it has it been affected? her daughter, but we had to let her know what is going on. i pray that god crossed the british government the wisdom to handle this case. well, when i think of agnes,
7:11 am
i remember how happy she was. she loved to sing. she taught my youngest daughter how to sing with the person who killed agnes should face the law because the child was orphaned has suffered a lot. bearing in mind, she was just 5 months old. even feeding at the time was difficult. according to the u. k. defense mystery, it will continue offering the support to the canyon investigation. the u. k. stands ready to support all requests says we have done since day one. as with other investigations, we always work in partnership with the kenyan police and subject to international and judicial processes or help will always be forthcoming when activists in kenya, calling for the extradition of the alleged killer to be held accountable while the labor party here in the united kingdom say the 9 year deal without an investigation even being considered has denied the family justice. there's been no minister defense lead investigation of the soldiers involved or no inquiring toward the minister, the funds failed to respond when canyon detectives asked for help. 9 years on
7:12 am
justice must now be done for agnes and her family revelations of the tragic death of when jacka continued to become more sinister. it's been reported that a group of 9 british soldiers jumped about had death on social media several years later. the family now hope this fresh investigation will give them that answer. they so desperately need. hold on to her. i feel a lot of pain when i remember agnes. we brought her up well, and just as she was settling down her life was taken away, leaving us defense for her young child. it's my hope that this child will get justice. it's been 10 years, but we hope to finally get justice. this case strikes right at the heart of alleged exploitation killings and cover ups in the british army. in fact, the very same defense secretary assisting this probe into one jacket, his death officially closed at stores on investigations and to more than a 1000 allegations of abuse by british soldiers in iraq. so with no prosecutions there, will this mean justice may never be solved for angus when jerry,
7:13 am
when jacko and her family chateau edwards dashti, r t, london. well, let's bring you to the u. s. now, where the biden administration is seeking, emergency vaccine mandates for the private sector, the rules will apply to all businesses. with more than $100.00 workers. we talked to airline pilot jason cornish, who sees vaccine regulations, how we're ready, put a major burden on the ation industry. the effective date is december 8th, that federal contractors need to be fully vaccinated on the cruise right now are extremely stressed. you add to that the force vaccines that are coming our way in the transfer in industry and the potential here of having to violate one's own conscience in order to get the vaccine or potentially lose your livelihood and lose
7:14 am
your career. is, is very, very stressful. in fact, air traffic control in the united states. they are already working by mandate 6 days in a row because of shortages. and now you have estimated 15 percent of air traffic control in the united states. they're gonna walk off the job at the end of the month because they're not going to take this vaccine. the companies and the government isn't saying what the accommodation will be for you if you choose to continue not to get vaccinated. and so a lot of people fear and i think rightly so, they could end up on the street last weekend alone, american airlines, the country's biggest carrier council, more than 2000 flights. and in the space of 4 days, 10 percent of its flights were scrubbed. the airline blame the setbacks on staff shortages and on 1st, whether it well over 40 republican senators have said they will try to nullify
7:15 am
president biden's maxine mandate scheme. yesterday they describe a proposed measure as the single biggest disruptor for the business community, the co, but vaccination rate in the u. s. has really stole the other on 58 percent of the population. well, behind the world, health organization is target of 70 percent. but jason, punish again, thinks his sector, at least is already as safe as it can be. the airline ceos and companies themselves have paired up with harvard university, showing that there is a point 003 percent chance of getting any kind of covered transmission on an airplane. you know, we flown through the scan demik for the last 18 months. air crews all over the world have done a fantastic job. navigating this, this pandemic, you know, we've flown p p. we found vaccines. we have been there with the 1st responders in
7:16 am
showing up for work. despite the risks you see in the united states that we are already under a very ste, i would call a severe shortage of qualified individuals to be mechanics, to be find a tennis to be pilots. specifically, this is r t after the break right wing french politicians seem to capitalize on a surgeon anti mass migrant sentiment. as a poll shows most people in the country fear a so called great replacement with muslims eventually outnumbering white christians . that stories coming up shortly. ah, no one else seemed wrong a to see how it
7:17 am
is because the african and engagement was the trail when so many find themselves well, the part we just to look so common ground to what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy, even foundation, let it be an arms race is on offense. very dramatic development. only personally and getting to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very difficult time. time to sit down and talk with
7:18 am
hello again. race and religion could play a pivotal role in the french presidential election next year. judging by a new nation wide poll. it fun that 2 thirds of respondents believe white christians could be under threat from muslim immigration. charlotte davinsky takes off the story with an election around the corner, hearing france questions about the country's identity, and whether it's losing it all being raised. the campaign is shifted to the fringes of the right even before it's even really begun and fears that france's traditional values are being replaced or rife. one poll showed 27 percent of respondents were certain that christine populations were being threatened by extinction. 34 percent thought that it was probable, the fear is that museum immigration is de posing traditional white communities.
7:19 am
while these ideas are certainly being peddled by raid you write to politicians, they're not the only ones with the medical center, right? joining in you have people of foreign origin who are driving out little by little one in demography. we call the natives. eric seymour, a french pundits and the presidential hopeful, has been far stronger than that. in his latest book, he says, the suburbs of paris are being colonized by muslims, and that the whole of france will soon be overrun. he has also added to warnings from some of frances retired military talk for us that a civil war is brewing. this fear that frances snoozing, her identity, her traditional values, is one that there is general public concern about. if you don't, in my opinion, there are populations from africa who come up because they really wants to be in france and to integrate the come because they don't have
7:20 am
a choice of the religious aspect. does not worry me much more. the values like freedom and then security, but i'm afraid that all values by force will be diluted in time. values are what make the foundations of a society. we must not forget the immigration is the number one problem in francis . we deal with it or with you. however, while subjects like this me, peak interests for many the issue dominates the upcoming election way. the politicians busily trying to show that they are the one who will uphold friendship values, and that voters may be looking for someone who is a little bit different to deal. i think these types of subjects are being used by politicians to get votes, which are making extremist parties, happy be they on the right or the left. so yes, it makes it scary. after all, we must not forget that there are just 6 months to go before the election. if i
7:21 am
don't do that, here's a new debate. it's come because very close to the elections because there has been an enormous amount of immigration, with everything that's happened in the middle east. normally to france was always have malcolm and country. it was constructed by foreigners in a fashion after colonization. he's for them, it shows we as m. o, in the end, he has a very intelligent person, very cultured who's a specials wanted. he's not part of any political party issue. there is a craze for him. muscles in 2017. that was a manual microphone. this time around the vote is know a little bit more about what he can all he can't offer. so that new and shiny label has worn off. the polls show that someone like zoom more, could laugh up votes, maybe even enough to be one of the 2 candidates who get into this 2nd round of voting. he's tough talking. his not showing away from subjects that many have found unpalatable in the past is at least for now resonating with the public. and if he
7:22 am
ends up going head to head against macklin moore, a man who's been described as the intellectual, donald trump, is ready to make some pretty unpredictable waves. charlotte, even ski r t harris, public shaming of the unvaccinated. that's how a student group is describing will of a leading european business school calls. it's fast lane for the inoculated students who have had the cobit job can get this yellow watermark on their past to enter any building on take exams up to vienna, university of economics and business. but those who have and how to shut, must wait in line. and have their documents, a negative p, c r test check. here some reaction we go to the controversial than the fuel spa. little bit like ah, they're pushing goods to,
7:23 am
to get vaccinated. them. i really don't flag is because i even other way i will be that the vaccinate authority bus arrives. now i don't like these fresh i don't like everything now easier to get back to you know, the elaborate the bars, you know. so i think that maintenance with liberty uses the student id, yellow sticker, and with it you can get faster through university controls. we have 2.5, g control measures here, but in reality there is not much difference. it just helps you get in faster, but the fast lane was brought. busy in to speed up entry after the austrian capital introduced stricter pandemic rules to enter public places. people in vienna must show either proof of inoculation recovery from corona virus or a negative p c r test. but the head of a student group sees the university's creating an unacceptable walk of shame for
7:24 am
the unvaccinated absolutes. it is absolutely discriminatory and humane and a very clear moved towards a 2 class society. we criticize the fact that people are excluded from society simply because they exercise their free choice not to be vaccinated. a step further is the labeling of people who have made a free decision not to be vaccinated. it doesn't matter whether this is done with ribbons as we have seen in the past, or we've wristbands which is currently being done in germany and in some cases already in austria or with vaccination stickers, as is currently the case at the university of economics and business administration, we can only condemn it and call it a hostile and inhuman policy when people are marked based on their health condition or their vaccination status. those who have decided not to be vaccinated will not be persuaded by an increase in pressure, but through education and vaccinated people should be treated the university just like they were treated before the pandemic access to higher education should be open and free without any restrictions or the university told us that since more
7:25 am
than 90 percent of students have had the shot, the move will benefit the majority. it also said it was wrong to call the new system labeling. the president of the austrian medical chamber says this is by providing an efficient and safe environment for study. think it makes life easier for the students in also more than 90 percent of the university students have been vaccinated and they can then select just 1st the if they have this that goes, you only have to check their identity. one has to ensure a safe environment in the lecture halls, and in order to do so, it is necessary to vaccinate or test the students. this is a free in austria, so they don't have to pay for that. but they wouldn't have to pay for the vaccination need,
7:26 am
but so i would recommend to be vaccinated. that's the safest way out to meet the extra holes. now in just a half, an hour's time on intrepid group of volunteers will be locked inside and experimented capture here in moscow for not a day or 2, but 8 full months. it's to simulate a comprehensive space flight so they better get along r t. so me to poke, went along to check out the atmosphere. what does it take to go to the mound, and what effect would have on a team of international researchers? well, project serious a joint effort by rushing to you was, has been set up to determine exactly that by simulating amanda expedition to the surface of the moon and back we are here in moscow. and this is the chamber where 6 astronauts will spend 240 days in complete isolation from the world in a structure made to assimilate in actual interplanetary spaceship. so let's see
7:27 am
what it looks like inside. mm. how the whole purpose of the project conducted by nasa's human research program and rushes institute for biomedical problems is to analyze the psychological and physiological effects that a crew might experience on an expedition to the moon. the experience will last $240.00 days and will be as close to reality as possible. limited resources, a fixed oxygen supply, as well as a time delay in communications, which can only be conducted through audio messages and emails. the ship has living quarters with individual rooms for each of the sex volunteers. a research area,
7:28 am
a virtual reality room designed to simulate the lunar surface and even an on board gym. ibt. to say to the of mixed people from different countries have been brought together for the training. it's been interesting to see everyone build up teams, spirits and relationships. so there been some minor difficulties, including with language. but now everything is working well. it's physically demanding and you need lots motivation to when you see the results, it's encouraging that it's not really possible to prepare for everything. but if you're interested in motivated, you can last 8 months for this experiment. earlier it was a space, as you can see here, this is the biggest and we have to submit it for us to walk in on the moon or can under the shower. my side. this up to you can take shower only one time every one week before the old group. they will take with these experiments actually
7:29 am
with us in the future. human spaceflight tensions in order to pay a lot weight to them. one will be on to the mass or a glass. however, the crew will not only be living on the space ship. they will also be descending to the surface of the moon, which is the purpose of this room, which has been equipped with v. r gear and a surface that imitates the lunar surface immersed in a virtual environment. the participants will be practicing how to move around in space suits, repair rovers, and collect samples. among other tasks, i'm excited to see really the limits of even my personal limits and also team dynamic limits. what are the problems that we're going to do to, to entertain counter and social interactions and, you know, how are we going to overcome different problems that they might put towards us? really important to understand, you know, how humans will interact in these long duration enclose, isolated environments. it's important to see how international,
7:30 am
different different international groups and backgrounds and cultures interact. once the experiment begins, this door will be sealed, shut with 6 crew members behind it. and the next time it will open up will be in exactly 240 days. and by then, the crew hopefully will have successfully carried out their mission and merged healthy and with a well deserved sense of accomplishment. but more importantly, provided scientists with all the data necessary to bring about a future where mand expeditions to em, lunar space station and moon walks will be a thing of the ordinary. good luck to them. no, it's a car like no other latimer putin's presidential vehicle the or us next. we chronicle how it came into being from initial idea to it's unveiling and or short duck kremlin mobile i.
