The aftermath of an attack by syrian Government Forces and their russian allies in italy probe in the attack happened hours before russian and turkish brokered cease fire was due to come into effect.

There have been several air strikes on different cities but we went to the sites and while we were helping people there were more airstrikes for sure there are people trapped in the rubble but were still searching for survivors. And they rob was one of several villages hit by russian and syrian Government Forces in the last 24 hours this grandfather is burying 4 out of his 5 granddaughters. I wasnt here when the airstrikes happened but i was told my granddaughters had been killed and when we came we found their bodies and their parents are in the hospital having surgery only 13 month old baby survived.

Like let them massacre most of the victims are children but these are the dead bodies i want the world to feed these children look at the crimes of bashar al assad. Thats all this russia and turkey agree to deescalation need live provence but attacks continued and many here dont believe they see style will last either victoria gave him be there or. The u. K. s ambassador to iran has been arrested and released after attending protests in tehran against the governments handling of the shooting down of a ukrainian passenger jet the countrys leaders admitted earlier on saturday that the military accidentally fired a missile at it in a statement British Foreign secretary dominant rob said. Robert mccanns arrest was a flagrant violation of International Law the iranian government is at a crossroads moment and can continue its march towards pariah status with all the political and economic isolation that entails or take steps to deescalate tensions and engage in diplomatic power forwards. Well ironic use the ambassador of organizing and drumming up a rally involving hundreds of people outside the university they chanted antigovernment slogans and demanded Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khomeini step down the jewels have also been held to remember the 176 People Killed in the crash the jabari has more now from terror on. The final terrifying moments for 176 passengers and crew onboard a Ukrainian Airlines boeing 737 for days on iranian officials the night it had been shot down by one of their missiles but on saturday irans revolutionary guard delivered this dramatic u. Turn. It is us who are to blame the plane was on its way it did not have any error or mistake everyone worked very well efficiently it was us who made a mistake and we are responsible we should accept responsibility and accountability. The belated admission has sparked protests in teheran they chant death to liars and shameless as they demand those responsible for the missile strike to be brought to justice theyre angry about the downing of the plane and they want accountability from the authorities less than 24 hours before saturdays admission the head of Iran Civil Aviation Organization spoke to aljazeera. It was a us it is very obvious that it was not hit by a missile if a missile hit it it should have crashed in its original direction. And this is whats causing more anger among iranians the fact that it took officials more than 48 hours after repeated denials to reveal what really happened. There was also criticism when the preform the wreckage was moved from the crash site possibly tainting evidence. The announcement comes a day after iran gave a Ukrainian Team access to the planes black boxes. Evidence that could be crucial for printing together a timeline a group of International Aviation experts is now part of the reigning investigation but this case could complicate further a region thats already in crisis the head of or also to syria has asked for all the evidence to be handed over to be investigated and the man in charge of irans revolutionary guard will be briefing m. P. s in a closed door session in parliament but what is not clear is how this will impact irans military and its government in the future dorsett a bari aljazeera tower on or many of the people onboard the ukrainian jet were canadian and the leaders of both those countries are demanding iran take full responsibility for the disaster donald trump for his part has been tweeting not about the shooting down of the plane but in support of iranian protesters and official reports now from washington. More than 50 of those aboard the plane were canadian their passing has been mourned at a number of Memorial Services the foreign minister summing up the impact on the country this ladies and gentlemen is a National Tragedy a sentiment echoed by the Prime Minister he insists the iranian admission of responsibility should note and the investigation earlier this morning i spoke with president rouhani of iran i told him that irans admission that its own armed forces unintentionally shot down flight 7052. 00 is an important step towards providing answers for families but i noted that many more steps must be taken a full and complete investigation must be conducted. The president of ukraine initially had this to say on his twitter feed again origin play in short dont is a step in the right direction i insist on immediately completing identification of the bodies and the return to ukraine the perpetrators must be held accountable but then in a National Address the president ordered ukraines prosecutor to open an investigation yes it was not on the part made of a crane i call on all International Partners of ukraine the entire World Community to be warm and persevered in the full and final investigation into all the circumstances of this disaster all of us need it later on saturday the 1st reaction from the white house in 2 tweets in english both repeated in farsi the president referencing protests in iran insisting hes always stood by what he called the brave and long suffering people and will continue to do so adding we are following your protests closely and are inspired by your courage trump has also called for human Rights Groups to monitor the protests telling iran the world is watching but from nowhere in the trumpet ministration in what appears to be a coordinated response has there been any direct comment on irans admission that it dont yet. So i like not to alan fischer in washington and ireland as you say in their donald trump came not to talk about that the plane crash directly in his tweets but talking more about the protests going on in iran. Its unusual that he would tweet an english and in farsi clearly someone who runs a social media. That did that because we dont think donald trump speaks farsi certainly has never given a vacation of that in the past its an interesting tweet his well to say that he stands by the people of iran when less than a week ago he was threatening to commit what is essentially a war crime by bombing cultural sites but it shows that he is perhaps trying to tamp down all possible question of escalating the tension between the United States and iran at the moment and that seems to be the message that is going across all Government Departments or at the 24 hours or so after iran acknowledged its military short dont a civilian aircraft that the americans have not tried to make any capital of it and of course you remember there are questions about the americans perhaps escalating tensions in the area something that the americans of entirely dismissed but if you go back to when Justin Trudeau who was the 1st world leader to openly say the intelligence and the information we have suggests that this plane was shot down by the Iranian Military you have to remember the time scale it came just 4 hours after the iranians fired a volley of missiles towards the iraqi bases where the u. S. Was based and all of iran was on high alert including their Missile Defense systems and in fact in that News Conference Justin Trudeau was asked do you blame the americans for ranking rack up tension in the area and he said look we have to have a full investigation before we start pointing fingers at anyone so it seems that the americans dont want to be seen celebrating or condemning or talking about what the iranians have admitted in any way instead theyre concentrating on the protests. They have supported the protests in the past what is interesting is that the other tweet the donald trump sent out he talked about how the world was watching iran and they didnt want protesters to be killed you remember that as part of the justification for killing general silverman ie the americans insisted that he had been responsible for killing Peaceful Protesters whod been on the streets of iran in the past totally discounting of course the fact that general salim ali was regarded by many in iran is a hero to the americans arent thanks very much that alan fischer reporting from Washington Well alan kohler is a professor of history at the university of michigan in the United States and he says outrage at what happened to the plane is feeding into existing frustrations amongst iranians. Weve seen in tehran at several universities now young people coming out and chanting against the regime over the shooting down of the plane. And pointing to it as a symbol of the incompetence and brutality of the iranian government these are voices we couldnt hear during the morning procession so forcibly money which amounted to the millions i think that if it had just been a matter of economic protest there had been you know sabotage of gasoline stations and breaking a bank windows that the regime would probably feel as though it can deal with that but this recent round just the last day of protests at the university involves the future intellectuals of the iranian republic and they are chanting very political things against the form of government of iran i can only imagine that the ayatollah is are taken to their core this evening i think we have to expect a violent repression thats how the regime operates thats what it knows and. You know the alternative would be to have someone high up resign in the Iranian Revolutionary guards corps to take count ability and take responsibility for this and i think it was genuinely a mistake but it was a horrible mistake and it was incompetent one but i dont think the regime usually functions that way. But the most ahead including. An appeal from venezuelas Opposition Leader for people to pall mall pressure on president Nicolas Maduro. Will have more on a mans new leader like him that been topic outside following the passing of his cousin sultan qaboos. Well show you how tennis his latest Team Tournament is proving a smash its. Not and taiwans Pro Independence president is celebrating a landslide election victory off the voters handed her a 2nd term in office so i mean when won 57 percent of the vote she says her reelection is a sign that taiwan will not to bow to intimidation from china so highly reports now from taipei. In a Major Political comeback after being nearly sidelined a year ago taiwans incumbent president signed wed was handed a historic victory winning the most votes of any president in the islands election history. The comeback and victory are likely a result of the increasing tensions with china and how beijing has crackdown on prodemocracy protesters in hong kong. I saw in her Pro Independence Democratic Progressive Party led the charge against chinese pledges of reunification. He just ignored the taiwanese people reject the one country 2 systems model we respect democracy and our sovereign rights as the president of taiwan i must deal with the cross trace relations according to the will of the people. Sys main competition hon quo you called and congratulated her a few hours after the polls closed he and his Party Strategy with china was engagement its a big victory for something when and the d. P. P. Yes because it means another 4 years in the president s office but it all. Sends a strong message across the straits of taiwan the majority of the people here want this island to remain independent from china and they think shes the president to do it with the added importance of this election nearly 75 percent of eligible voters turned out more than the last 2 president ial elections. To people of my age the threat from china could not have been more real this time. Where there is pressure from china there is resistance and the need to speak out against. This is only unlike previous elections we had more young people are speaking up this year their voice is louder and hurt during this election. So how do things move forward some think there will be major changes in the way Beijings Communist Party or p. R. C. Has been managing the tension. I dont think the p. R. C. Is going to suddenly decide that you know well i guess we have to work with her because shes been reelected. But i also dont anticipate that they will view this as an immediate provocation that they have to deal with. What the victory has been savored one of the major task for president size 2nd term will be getting beijing to respond to her promise of the willingness to start a positive dialogue its got to either aljazeera taipei. Venezuelas Opposition Leader one is trying to kickstart his campaign to remove president Nicolas Maduro the year after he was declared by some countries as venezuelas interim president hes lost momentum from caracas latin america at its embassy in yemen examines why. A middle class neighborhood was the scene of Opposition Leader one why does 1st rally this year he came back to the us i guess if there are gate spences or wall to jump we will jump them and if we cannot jump over them we will knock them down.

Nevertheless he pleaded for the news waylands not to abandon him. Today more than. Ever we need to all fight together to open the door to freedom because i confess to you we cannot do it alone you know whether than israelis will heed his call and accompany him next week in a new attempt to Enter Parliament with me.
