sarah rainsford, bbc news, moscow. powers, has dragged on for more than 5 years. at least a 100,000 people have died and the conflict has sparked the world's biggest humanitarian crisis, with children often suffering the most. our international correspondent orla guerin reports now on the remarkable story of one little girl's survival in a city on the frontlines. you may find some of the images in her report, distressing. this is taiz, called "the city of snipers." in a battle—scarred country, it is one of the most dangerous corners, especially for the young. ruida is wounded, but alive, minutes after a sniper shot her in the head. the seven—year—old left lying like a broken doll. it was her brother, omari, who rushed to her side and managed to drag her from the line of fire. he is only ten years old. ruida is now in intensive care at a local hospital, where staff are attending her around the clock, but she probably owes her life to her brave big brother. translation: i was going to get water. we pulled the bottle to t

just come a quarter past 3 here in moscow now a new report has accused the u.k. media of disproportionately focusing on terror attacks carried out by muslims even though attacks carried out by white supremacists near in our cities are more frequent those perpetrated by muslims get 9 times the coverage the muslim council of britain did note however that the imbalance has improved since the christchurch and el paso attacks where muslims were the victims we discussed the report with one of its authors. what we've done is not make assumptions we have got very detailed analysis and statistics that we pulled from monitoring the media on a daily basis. yes and looking at how they report on it and we've compared very similar attacks committed by so-called muslim perpetrators and those by the far right and white supremacists and found that there's been a huge inconsistency and difference in the way those attacks are are covered there is far more of a. willingness on the part of the media to use the term terror terrorist of terrorism exclusively for muslims and it's very r

it's just approaching hostile in the afternoon here in moscow that's how the news is looking so far today we're back again as usual in about 30. greetings i'm sally you taishan. my friends we live in an age of injustice and protest and while any schmoe with the dollar knowledge of human history and group psychology will rightfully acknowledge that without injustice there would be no protest do not do not tell that to the state government of tennessee who apparently believe that the only way to stop protesting is to make it a felony yes under a new law signed into being by governor believe the 1st amendment sprayed him of speech and assembly is now a felony offense and the volunteer state the associated press reports that in a direct response to black lives matter protesters who took.
