mm hm. i believe she just took her to the foot usa to a terrorist attack has just happened while vlad lend to tar ski was speaking. there was an explosion in the bar. it seems that our speaker from gut wrestler douglas, for those the mother, she took the microphone and started asking him questions. and she said, do you remember lovelyn? i gave you a postcard. he said, is this the one you drew? she replied, yes. he asked her name and she said nastier than she continued. why now i would like to give you a statue. she said that when she entered the cafe, she was asked whether it was a bomb and was asked to leave the statue at the entrance. then she brought it to

the stage and gave it to london. it was a golden head in the helmet. it didn't look like a flat when it and everyone laughed, and they put it down, they put it back and suddenly everything exploded. the smoke appeared and then everything was like in slow motion. everyone ran. those who were nearby were covered in blood borne of shells, whimsical. i was talking to my compatriot, blood lend to tar skip. i managed to ask him a couple of questions and then the blast happened after that i left the building with everybody else. so fortunately, the police and ambulance arrived for quickly express immense gratitude to the doctors. they're just saints. i take my head to them according tie witnesses. the explosion came from a small statue that a woman brought to the events a gift, apparently intended for to tarkey rushes. investigative committee said it was looking into this incident as a murder and the police were on a man hunt to find the woman in question. media reports began to suggest that the main suspect in the case was a woman by the name of daria trap of a, someone who had been arrested before an anti government demonstrations and had

transferred money to an extremist organization called the anti corruption foundation. around 700 police officers were deployed across the city in search of trap of the police showed up at her door with automatic weapons and even rated the residence of her mother and sister. for the time being though she was nowhere to be found. the next day, the authorities found daria trip of a at a 4 rent apartment where the russian investigative committee later confirmed her detention. not long after that the interior ministry released a video confession and which daria trip of a admits to bringing an explosive statuette to tar ski's event. do you understand why you have been detained? i am detained, full being at the scene of flatland petoskey, killing. what have you done? i brought the sachi that exploded, tells who gave it to you. can i tell you later? russia's anti terrorism committee has determined that this was a terrorist attack,

organized by kia with the help of agents from the aforementioned extremist organization. the anti corruption foundation here for its part has denied any involvement in this attack. as it did a year ago, when there was overwhelming evidence to suggest that key of agents had killed another high profile russian journalist. daria do gonna, with these civilian assassinations piling up and the west, turning a blind eye to key of roland them. it looks like the people who risked their lives to show the world. the truth are going to have to sleep with one eye open until this conflict is over. donald quarter r t st. petersburg. ah, the former ceo of lafarge a syrian bass, french construction materials company, has revealed french intelligence service, infiltrated the firm to continue activities in syria, and collaborated with terrorist groups like isis in order to do so. we learned that

there was a special relationship between the french states, its services and lafarge. one of the reasons the state took an interest in us was that the factory site was a strategic location for the anti terrorist coalition. and for france, this is why i believe that the authorities encouraged us, at least to maintain our activities in syria. so let's get this straight. while some of the world's most brutal terrace groups are operating all around it, this particular french company was miraculously able to continue operating. essentially under the protection of the same terrace, the french air force had been bombing since 2014. and who the french state had labelled as savages. but as you can see from this map, the plants location meant that despite most of the staff being evacuated, its strategic importance remained. the french giants factory continued its operation in syria, despite extreme groups taking over large swathes of the country until finally shutting down its factory in columbia. aleppo in september 2014,

been situational paddock. so paradoxical situation had a reason explained gaves dusky app called on the one hand, the factory continued to operate by accommodating belligerents who had settled around it, including dice. at the same time, as the embassies had closed and the french intelligence services were not present there at that time, sound french intelligence, lac informants. of course, everything has a cost and avoiding the med, evil brutality of the islamic state doesn't come for free. so how exactly does a european multinational manage to sit pretty in the middle of the most brutal wars and decades? well, as usual, it's all about the money. it was our partner in syria. it was through him that amounts were paid to ensure the safe transport of our employees and materials to pass through. we discovered that he also works for the french intelligence for renumeration. he explains that he collected intelligence through his contacts. each

time he cross roadblocks, checkpoints set up by armed groups on the roads. it appears that the state was perfectly aware to pass roadblocks you had to pay. hence my question, how was the money that lafarge paid him used? what pockets did they fly into? the court never answered that question. so the grimy nexus between french corporate interests and their intelligence community is essentially laid bare. the hypocrisy is hard to ignore. and for many victims of the islamic state, it's hard to stomach with lafarge, a security chief revealing in great detail how he himself had gathered information and passed it directly to french intelligence. as soon as i had the information about these people, i would pass it on to the services i was sending them ron formation. i did not filter the information. i was passing it to intelligence services. i told them everything. remarkably, these emails also revealed that in 2014, the french government had, even after united states, not to bomb the farm plant,

close to the ice, a stronghold in rocca lobbying the americans to ensure the plant was put on what was chilly. you referred to as the appropriate list. this french investment should be protected. this is to confirm that the site mentioned by your interlocutor was mentioned by our military to the u. s. colleagues and is now registered on the appropriate list. unfortunately, the grim reality is that the cash paid to isis during this period of bizarre collaboration could have potentially funded the massacres of innocent french civilians in paris. another conveniently ignored truth. is that why willing to levy a 778000000 dollar fine on the french company? the u. s. department of justice makes no mention of the group b, involvement of the french secret services. but like i said, it's all about the money and african union forces conroy has been struck by an explosion in the somali capital of mobility issue. so far there's been

no report on casualties. no group has claimed responsibility for the attack so far . the blast was reportedly caused by a landmine during the routine activity of peacekeeping forces. somalia has been suffering from conflict since the early ninety's involving multiple groups, including all show bob and isis at the least developed countries conference and could tar. the president of the central african republic gave escaping speech toward the west and treatment of his country. the conference took place in march and covered many topics with as diverse will of guests from st leaders and industry leaders to representatives of the un which organized the conference for the 5th time. the african states president accusing the west of looting his country and being responsible for terrorist activity to get more on the african liter speech. and the latest on the central

african republic. we have an exclusive interview with the republics presidential spokesperson in money. was lou. unfortunately was to some countries driven us into poverty in his statement prison to adero wanted to condemn just that the forward to facing the central african republic hasn't gone anywhere. we still live in unsafe conditions. with all this crisis insurgence in armed formations, as our president noted, due to these factors remaining, our country continues to live in poverty. this is what president adara wanted to emphasize in his statement. chicken is a good you what i can say, and all central african republic citizens. now this, well, is that since effort against independence for more than 60 years, we've lived through one crisis after another. all the decisions offered never helped us was still face armed formations, insurgencies, and rebels. the cd to say president todd dera, decided to request assistance from

a number of friendly countries who were ready to help us deal with the armed formations and rebels. he asked for help from russian federation, and russia came to the rescue as well as rhonda, which was also addressed by the president. they came to aid us. they held the central african republics armed forces repelled the armed formations and drive insurgents from the republics territory. this alliance is i would call it with russian. rwanda allowed our armed forces to gain control of the most of the country's territory. because there was a time when armed formations were almost everywhere. with the help from our friends from rush and rhonda, our army controls most of the land. we must gain control of the areas where mining operations are taking place, where the armed formations are active now, in order to take control of her countries development to morrow. mid to could be or so our cooperation with what was than the ussr was fruitful in russia. they trained doctors, engineers and teachers. we want to revive that system because all this crisis rebellions, wars have created massive setbacks and human resource development are working great

in universities, facilities of higher education, high schools dispenser is hospitals, infrastructure. everything concerning the c, a r's development. we're counting on cooperation with russia a lot in the field of universities. simple as preparing our teachers lectures by russian professors and now universities. it also includes training of our doctors and courses for students here. it also involves the training of engineers and insistence and building infrastructure that is worth of being called infrastructure . so we have the means to satisfy basic needs of her population lose at all? no, not exactly counter news and acknowledged that would allow us to use our natural reaches. we're glad to have you ever cannot understand very well this. say our with president foster aren't been here to our dera as his leader is ready to be open to the world and work from a position of good will with all countries that are ready for mutual beneficial cooperation. i have the resources you have that acknowledges. let us sit at the table and negotiate how we can move forward together. state sponsored

terrorism, that's how orthodox monks in kiev describe. being physically entrapped in the law of rob monastery as unidentified individuals put locks on the buildings gate with police looking on with with, we're not talking to you the dollars to crime. if you are the representatives of the police, now they are holding somebody in sight. we don't have facilities right now to release them. just tell me you're here all the time. you saw who did this, close this building, one of the people in the market, we didn't see the understand this people are that as hostages. this is terrorism. it was a state sponsor terrorism. your witnesses, please do what is necessary. however, this voted shows the law that was placed on a door at the monastery, according to local media and ambulance was dispatched to the scene as one disabled monks subsequently fell ill. the holy men were allegedly locked up by people

working in the area. reports on the persecution of the orthodox clergy have recently intensified in ukraine as cubes authorities attempt to cut national ties with russia. earlier the head of the church law was confined to how to rest for 60 days and was transferred to court hearings in spite of health conditions. we spoke with deputy chairman of this to no department for church relations, who is upset with the silence from human rights organizations. ukrainian authorities are now trying to destroy your grain, you know those church and they didn't. they don't even try to hide their geniune intentions. and openly say. 6 that ukrainian also should disappear from grain and these

declarations are totally barberick from any point of view from the point of christian well use from the point of religious freedom. from the point of view. well, simple humanitarian with they are ready to go, which is great. take, you know, all the congregations, all the church, they just keep that being brief, all your great off church someplace you will disappear that nobody knows. busy where they are, so this is total, i don't to repression. so the, all the craig and church and the lease all is done with a feeling of talk to a foreign case. elimination of the law like the ritual is ship like

a place where where long sleeve is. i worried dicks tap were a big just action towards elimination or was a tricia as a whole. and the soil is done without any reaction from the national. ready or human rights protecting bodies total silence, no support for the ordinary beliefs of the great national church. meanwhile, in the middle east, the christian community is also reportedly seeing growing oppression. being at the heart of 3 major religions, jerusalem is seeing an emerging crisis with christians, reportedly seeing a rising number of hate crimes r t 's, maria for notion or reports from the city. oh, jewish selim, heart of the holy land where jesus is believed to have been born and preached without christians, thus a gloomy, still far away. but likely scenario,

the greek orthodox patriot, he has warned, ah, every forcibly rising number of hate crimes and incitement against followers of jesus is pushing them for their way. despite the efforts of the church, what's really in dangerous. many people, christians are leaving the country leaving good jerusalem. and we don't want to came to the place as a museum. we wanted to keep it alive and they call the christians community in beth, i'm or in jerusalem, or in any part of the holy land. i call them the living stores, so they are the livings not the stone by themselves. father isa, and palace.
