‘ series of nerve agents. it is a new type of nerve agent. other nerve agents. we have seen it recently in relation to the skripal nerve agent case. what impact does it have on people in contact with it? direct contact, well, nerve agents work by blocking a signal. we end up with eight —— a compound. it stops muscles working as they should. people have issues with breathing, salivation, movement, and things like control of their bladder and bowels. we saw that with the sergei skripal case, and this daughter, they made a full recovery. how would you describe the adequate treatment that may be required for somebody who has been affected by it? as we mentioned in the case, and especially with this case, we have identified the agent very quickly. we know that the hospital has treated the skripals successfully before. they. be able to treat before. they will be able to treat these people quicker than the skripals. what is the lifespan of the nerve agent? i do not know if él—fi 557—555 %£££é’:‘ 2.4.5 554 lr;;,.,;~'4~~ . ..... is even the right way t

— gone nerve agents that have torn before? —— gone before. nerve agents that have torn before?r in thatitis -- gone before. it is superior in that it is persistent and highly toxic than before. the vx chemical that was used to kill kim jong—un's brother, roughly one tenth of a drop was used to kill him put on his cheek. so we are talking about very small quantities, even less with novichok. very small quantities that are very novichok. very small quantities that are very difficult to detect. thank you so much forjoining us. the exposure was released by a late—night press conference. the bbc‘s daniel sandford was at scotland yard for that press conference, here's his take on it. detectives are in a position where they thought they had a contained area in march, there was a reason and a motive for attacking sergei skripal and his daughter became contaminated. the police officer that was investigating them became contaminated and after that it was trying to work out who had done it. suddenly, four months on they find themselves in a situation where it doesn't appear to be containe

it does not create vapour like other agents.is persistent and sticks around potentially for four months. this is speculation. rather than a second attack on what seems to be ordinary members of the public, it seems they came into contact with an object or key area contaminated. it is the same thing that affected the skripals. we do not know. it is a possibility. this material could be so possibility. this material could be so toxic even a ten millimetre drop could potentially kill. what would be the priority. to establish how they came to contact with it and if anyone else did? that is the priority, trying to determine where the contact occurred and whether or not there are follow once to those who did it in the first place. —— follow—ons. it could have been targeted on someone else but these people ran into it. how difficult is the follow—up going to be? people ran into it. how difficult is the follow-up going to be? very difficult. think about the way you typically attempt this. you have a piece of paper sensitive to the agent

because the nervous shock nerve agents themselves very deadly so i was. a laborious laboratory russian anti biological nuclear and chemical. weapons defense force and the head of it this laboratory he explained to me how deadly this no joke nerve agent could be varieties of a single drop in liquid form of a movie talk nerve agent is enough to killed to kill ten average sized men then and it depends on how your how you're exposed to it for example if you touch it the symptoms and death might occur from five minutes to an hour if you inhale it if it powder liquid iris all then death you know you could die in minutes and there's very little that can save you the fact that these people of stillness they were found hours later and still fighting for their life ledge development saturday exactly but they were still found hours later with symptoms reminiscent of. the script out suffered and they're still alive again which is what the strange thing was with in this group out of but whether it was last time you know the russian allegations came. immediately this t

but not necessarily the same batch of that nerve agent.work out whether there is an area of contamination they were not aware of. perhaps a parkland or a bench or some object — a glove, some of the equipment, and they may have to find it. perhaps less likely but more unnervingly, some kind of second attack, this time not on somebody with a motive, but on two ordinary members of the public. so it is a very significant development in this investigation. it is making detectives feel quite uncomfortable this evening. so, what do we know about this toxic nerve agent, and what risk it poses to those who come in contact with it? i've been speaking to bruce bennett, a senior defence analyst for rand corporation, about the nature of novichok. they may have planned to do in areas it has not been discovered so be it is difficult to discover. it creates no vapour is difficult to discover. it creates no vapour like other agents. it is persistent and sticks around for potentially months. possibly, it is this is speculation, rather than a second attack o

we can confirm with the man a woman has been exposed to the nerve agent. which has been identified as the same or if i didn't get contaminated both of us and so i guess we are not be in a position to say whether the nerve agent was from the side perhaps the scribbles were exposed to. the possibility that these two investigations might be linked is playing a large record for. detectives are investigating how the couple came into contact with the nerve agent they say there's nothing in the past background to suggest they would have been deliberately targeted. police have cordoned off places the couple had been before falling ill including a church community center. joins us with more of the story from london so the health minister says this is an after effect of these crippled poisoning tell us more about what that might mean. well there was already speculation that this could be the material that maybe has been discarded by the original attack us that tried to kill the script halls and that this is somehow been found by this couple however we don't know how

as the agent mentioned to him by british officials.t the poison applied asa of view is that the poison applied as a viscous liquid on their front door handle was absorbed only very slowly and during that time, going to the pub and restaurant, they would have been able to wash a good deal of it off their hands. but what of the man at the centre of this? well, we can also reveal a little more about him. last summer, i came here and met sergei skripal on a number of occasions that. it was pa rt number of occasions that. it was part of research for a book project i was doing. ifound part of research for a book project i was doing. i found a man who was proud of his achievements in life, a big person with a wry wit, irrepressible in the face of the setbacks and sorrows he had experienced in his life. chatting to sergei skripal in his home last summer, i didn't find a man who seemed particularly worried about his personal security. he did at that time express concerns about being quoted, but that in terms of the possible threats to his son a

struck, please. >> thank you, agent strzok. >> agent strzok, are you kidding? >> now recognizing the member from missouri. >> thank you, mr. chairman and special agent strzok, i just continue to be amazed that my colleagues in the majority are more interested in your text messages than they are about the leader of the free world doing everything possible to undermine the western alliance. it just amazes me, special agent strzok as a counter intelligence specialist, you know all too well the pervasive, constant and growing danger that the russian federation poses to this country, our allies and to democracy in general. it is appalling that my colleagues in the majority continue to relitigate the 2016 election while the president does more damage in the western -- to the western alliance than the sum total of all previous russian and soviet leaders could have dreamed of. and it is remarkable that mr. trump accused our trusted ally germany of being, and i quote, "totally under the control of russia." i would say that the president is half right. someone is totally

special agent brian viesel. special agent timothy inslee. special agent lorenzo gomez. special agent scott maguire. special agent david wilhelm, and special agent jamie zapata, who was killed by a cartel hitman in mexico. these agents gave their lives in the line of duty. thousands more of these agents risk their lives every day on your behalf. i want you to pause for one moment. i want to think about those agents, think about those families, but think about those thousands of agents who are defending our border. what do they think about a bill that comes across the desk that says you want to abolish them? how much support do they feel when the leadership, mr. speaker, of the democratic party says vote no, vote present, just vote how you want? well, you know what, when they risk their lives and they stop another human trafficker about modern day slavery and they save another child, i'll vote to support them. or when they stop the amount of drugs coming across and they save another american's life, i'll support them. or when they stop an ms-13 gang member from coming to

that it is related to the same agent, it is the same agent. over a long period of time and it doesn't degrade. i don't know exactly what the rate of degradation is and there is now officially published data on this. we know the agent was very persistent in the skripals which is why they were unconscious for a long time. it is probably very persistent in the environment. nerve agents breakdown in the environment through contact with water or they evaporate. but some agents take a long time to degrade and they can la st long time to degrade and they can last for using the environment and this particular one may be very similarto this particular one may be very similar to one of those. it seems as if this couple may have gone to salisbury on friday night and somehow picked up a syringe or some kind of container that the novichok had been in, what are your thoughts about that? that after the hold a —— the whole decontamination in salisbury, there was still novichok lying around. the authorities and the police will be very upset about this because

the average agent apprehended approximately 97 people per year. for context, in 2017, the average border patrol agent apprehend less than 20 people per year across all northern and southern border sectors. today immigrants are overrunning the board is a lie. the purpose is for the prior two deployments were also different than the one launched earlier this year. during operation jumpstart, the bush administration was in the midst of hiring and training thousands more border patrol agents and once staffing levels increased by 40 percent, the operation ended in 2008.the next operation was launched in 2010 when cartel violence on the mexican side was rising. and the threat of violence was a real concern ports lsapprehension levels are at th lowest levels we have seen early 1970s. and the threat of border violence is less. the purposes for this new deployment are purely reactionary and political. let's remember that in early april, the president was reacting impulsively to backlash from the far right about the spending bill he had just signed the head
