also to come a three person crew is on his way to the international space station a soyuz rocket lifted off without a hitch almost two months. we report from the baikonur cosmodrome. and a russian t.v. reporters accused of spying in the u.k. by the ministry and the media following what was called his suspicious behavior side and on the facility. i get off and welcome just gone four o'clock here in moscow are you watching international. hundreds of medics have joined the wife of protests that gripped the french capital. from. that little bit of other stuff. you can see the latest pictures from paris they are using sirens for detention because. that's you can see there is sounding names so i ring say it's just in the past in the congo does he go towards the national assembly the thing that they're unhappy about is a shame shame frog's it was implemented two months ago whereby hospitals now you decide which ambulance services front like patients to drive is a concern that might could threaten their jobs in the future so this is just the latest in a stream of protests that we've been seeing

takeoff the sea news is expected to reach orbit and just six hours later adopt with the international space stationface time will feel much longer. r.t. from baikonur in kazakhstan. yeah and it is so far so good they should be up at the international space station in about five and a half hours from. now hundreds of medics have joined the wave of protests that script the french capital. the problem. is that other stuff. you can see tonight is pictures from paris they are using sirens and phone lights to attract attention to their calls show devinsky now reports from the protest in the french capital. as you can see there is sounding names so i ring say it's just on the past in the congo does he go towards the national assembly the thing that they're unhappy about is a change in france that was implemented two months ago whereby hospitals now you decide to reach ambulance service in france reflect patients and the drivers are concerned the but could threaten their jobs in the future so this is just the latest in a stream of protests that we've been seeing him frogs that sickly over the last few week

also to come this hour less than thirty minutes from now a new mission to the international space station will lift the first the first one since a failed launch almost two months ago a report from the baikonur cosmodrome plant. so a. large scale police drills are held on the us mexico border with thousands of people fleeing poverty from all across latin america expected to attempt crossing the frontier we look at how foreign aid pouring into the region could be doing more good. but i welcome just pm here in moscow you're watching international. now hundreds of medics have joined the wave of protests that script the french capital. from a. little further north. you can see the latest pictures from paris they're using sirens and phone lines to attract attention to their cause. we get more now from our correspondent who's down there for a shot of the been skiing in paris charlotte good afternoon we sure a lot of protests across the weekend didn't way now the medics are protesting one of they angry about. well as you can see they are sounding no sirens here just on the plaster look on gold a

the soyuz is currently the only way up to the international space station. on between russia and america. both sides say that cosmic collaboration will continue even as relations here on earth become increasingly hostile. russia's proud of its record in space that stems back to the days of cold war competition. the iss united old rivals, but as that project reaches an end and nasa plans a new station to orbit the moon, russia's role remains unclear. the space programme makes russia as a great power, and sends a political challenge to the russian federation. because how will we cooperate in post—iss era? but this soyuz will head for the iss, its crew reassured that the aborted launch was the first in 35 years. this was their chance to try their own soyuz ahead of the countdown to blastoff. sarah rainsford, bbc news, moscow. the significance of this launch and the need to keep the space station occupied was something libbyjackson of the uk space agency highlighted when she spoke to me earlier. it is very significant. it is great to see the crew heading that way

now soyuz rocket has lifted off destination the international space station it is the first manned flight since a failed mission almost two months ago three person international crews headed by the captain or they come and go the russian cosmonaut is the most experienced with four flights already under his belt and he is joined by the canadian national what they would son jax and also america's mclean for them it's their mission in space ruth an ocean a witness the takeoff from the baikonur cosmodrome. now you hear the engine started working. to find this space said. the rocket is already out in the skies will take a little bit more than six hours for the crew to dollar cuisine international space station's but today's launch is far from routine one why the thing is that so uses only new three accidents in their long he story. never agreed fatalities would always lead into nations aborted a in nineteen seventy five a nine hundred eighty three and the maze three seventy one happened just seven weeks ago in october during the last man flight and here's my report on why today's launch is so

the space craft is a crucial lifeline to the international space station more out here is high despite the last failed attempt. the three astronauts from russia the usa and canada confident they can handle whatever comes their way. psychologically and technically prepared for blastoff and any situation which god forbid may occur on board. the nasa astronaut said the factors which contributed to the botched mission have now been rectified. this is not a time though for you the internet and. you know nothing. in october their colleagues were forced to make an emergency landing when a sensor on the soyuz rocket failed and inquiry later found that it was damaged during assembly the incident was a blow to russia's once revered space program. the astronauts will depart from the same site which launched the first man into space nearly sixty years ago today's mission is a chance for russia to restore its stellar image in space exploration. earlier i spoke with fabio and schmidt from science and i asked him what exactly is at stake for the first manned mission to the i assess since that failed
