originally did not include extremist groups like islamic state al qaeda and al nusra front now russia had objected to this because they said that the resolution should go further than those three groups and to ensure a should include two of the largest rebel groups that are fighting in eastern guta they include josh and its rival its fighting there iraq man all right now we've been getting reports that russian foreign minister sergey lavrov. says that russia is preferred to vote in favor of the resolution as you also alluded to but there are caveats that you just outlined some are saying that russia is buying time. yeah russia of course has come under a lot of criticism for repeatedly stalling and preventing the un security council from acting when it comes to syria as the was progressed over the past few years recently amnesty international human rights group put out a report saying the russians must go had blocked nine resolutions in the un security council and the human rights group argued russia was really just trying to block the prosecution and any international action against i

much needed aid to reach stricken areas a number of terror groups such as islamic state and the latest incarnation of al nusra are excluded from the agreement and the forces operating in syria are allowed to continue antiterrorist operations however despite all the efforts the trousseau here is to have little chance of surviving as my dad gets dia explains. thirty days of peace ceasefire of course all of syria sounds wonderful a pause for civilians time for food to reach the hungry starving people for the wounded to be treated no shelling no bombs and almost no chance. east ghouta suburb of damascus the last to islamist stronghold in the area it's from here that rebels blindly shelled damascus killing and killing and killing civilians for years now the syrian army launches a counter-terror operate sion and buying international outrage. by the escalation of strikes me as a living hell hell on earth unbearable suffering indiscriminate shelling of residential areas intentional and systematic targeting of civilians the human disaster and nothe dead children and nothing wrecked families the thing in syria is you c

islamic states. in the latest incarnation of al nusra are excluded from the ukraine meant operations against them will continue. meanwhile russia's center for reconciliation sees that even some groups that claim to adhere to the cease fire are continuing shelling the syrian capital and has more now on the un initiative. there has been a resolution agreed on by the fifteen member body that leads the united nations regarding the situation in eastern guta this is an enclave to the east of the syrian capital of damascus and it's a place that's under the control of rebels and terrorists that are working to overthrow the syrian government twenty thirteen it has been surrounded by government forces and the fighting there has recently intensified and we're hearing allegations against both sides about human life being taken about civilians being killed we're hearing accusations from the syrian observatory for human rights which is based in the united kingdom there saying that if syria with the support of russia is hurting civilians and committing atrocities against civilians we've also heard reports from the r

operations will still be in the permitted against extremists groups you'll be as one being islamic state al qaeda and al nusra front but the russians have been negotiating for the groups to be included in particularly these rebel groups that are operating in eastern guta that's a suburb outside damascus where have been a lot of heavy fire over the last five days groups like josh al islam and its rival political rock man. james i mean the world has been witnessing scenes of horror mass casualties among children why is the u.n. so powerless to do something. well because the u.n. is not a thing and its own right the un is really just the will of its collective members and if all the big powers in the world agree on something then usually you can get something done it's when they don't agree that you run into problems like the one we experience here the un security council is structured so that the five permanent members russia the u.s. china france and britain they've got to be to want it and when one of their allies is the subject of the u.n. security council resolution as is this case because the president bas

photographer and also posed as a sort of radical islam a sympathizer a managed to infiltrate this family of abu osama who's one of the founding members of the al nusra front and he's training his eight almost from busts to become feiss for an islamic caliphate you know and interesting me in the film you never see his wife or his daughters tell day he didn't see them in all the time he was that he hugged them sometimes in another room they're sort of keep kept completely away from it. it's a very chilling documentary because the father loves his as a father of the children idolized and yet he is sort of indoctrinating them and training them to be fighters from a very very young age and he also in the film it shows two of his eldest sons at the time there were twelve and thirteen acts as a sort of training camp the film is produced here in berlin let's see a little bit of it we talked also exclusively to the director who we'll hear from him too tom. an islamist training camp for children in northern syria. documentary filmmaker talal durkee returned to his home country at considerable risk to share the daily life of a radical islamist family. i want t

islam the army of islam holds most of east ghouta as the name may imply these guys crusading for democracy and when they aren't busy killing each other they share power with nusra. in syria and the number of smaller groups. these are ruthless people they cage civilians literally put woman and the elderly in metal cages and hoisted them onto roofs where they left them and little human shield made of civilians to protect themselves their fighters from strikes these same people jihad ists who say they're fighting to free the country from outside then turn their guns on protesters when they day complain about the jihad ists themselves. these infamous incident being one of them a crowd of demonstrators fired upon by rebel fighters john kerry himself once called the rebels holding east ghouta a subgroup of isis and al-qaeda remember what the u.s. led coalition deeds to isis in mosul. what are they leveled. and then ty's city thousands of civilians dead yet they say there's no choice the terrorists were sponsible by using human shields a sad fact of war two billion casualties are a fact of life in this sort of situation do you agree that some of the the high level of

you can't attack islamics or you can attack al qaeda and frankly there is a bit of discretion as to who actually is how qaeda and so russia would say that groups that fight alongside nusra who are part of each t.r.s. and who have worked with this umbrella group that they're all sensually the same salafi jihad as that russia should be able to target and so again you know the united nations it represents a normative ideal but it can't actually control the behavior of superpowers and russia is one hundred percent opposed to these radical groups and is committed to destroying them particularly after such a large level of russian investment and so much success of especially against isis max iran is going to speak to thanks for taking the time to join us there from boston. now the u.s. president has spoken at america's largest gathering of conservatives living a sort of political greatest hits on familiar themes for immigration to north korea donald trump also use the space to again call for teachers to be armed and i'd say he proposed after last week's course missing and florida fisher has more ah this was donald trump a homegrown surrounded by supporters people won over by

designated groups, and that means terrorist groups, such as al—nusra, which is the al-qaeda offshoot in syria, but also daesh, which is so called islamicp it and we must put the blame where it properly lies, which is with the assad regime and with the russian government.“ is with the assad regime and with the russian government. if president putin wanted to stop the bombardment of eastern ghouta he could make that happen because russia has that dominant position now in syria. so if he vetoes this resolution, or if the resolution is adopted but not implemented, i think the blame must lie with president putin. the doctor who we spoke to on bbc news yesterday morning, he said he felt while this was going on around him that this has been forgotten by the west, by the un, by all the authorities. it is hard to argue against that when he sees nobody coming in to stop this. against that when he sees nobody coming in to stop thisi against that when he sees nobody coming in to stop this. i don't think that's fair. multiple efforts have been made by the west, by the united states, by the uk and other allies over the last seven years. whilst i was
