Thank you for watching the headlines here at r. T. International broadcasting live from moscow. The u. S. Has urged turkey not to attack syrias african region and focus on fighting isis instead thats according to the state department spread person has in now it we would call on certainly on the turks to not take any actions of that sort dont want them to engage in the violence but we want them to keep focused on isis were talking threatened armed intervention in the kurdish held african region after it emerged the u. S. Was planning to work with kurdish fighters in establishing a socalled border force in syria boche following and grows fierce reaction washington seems to have backtracked on to Senior Regional correspondent what does the it explains. Turkey isnt kidding around day after day it is pulling more tanks and more missiles more troops to the Syrian Border this is the pregnant to a new war a war within the u. S. Led coalition should. Now americas acknowledged its established an army of terror along our countrys border its up to us to drown this army of terror before it is born. One of the reasons is americas new army or border force which is what it was originally the u. S. Led coalition told us in this letter that it was establishing a Border Security force an army of kurds patrol the border with turkey now that is preparing to invade the u. S. Has done a one hundred eighty degree turn that entire situation has been misplaced treat misdescribed some people misspoke we are not creating a Border Security force at all the story has changed its not a new army or a border force its thirty thousand troops that will be trained to prevent isis his return on paper for now and if he doesnt put a stop to it state department is now on overdrive you get the sense that theyll be bending over backwards for a valuable ally turkey is a very important value nato ally we have a lot of interactions with the turkish government as you probably know the foreign minister of turkey is in vancouver right now where i believe he will be meeting or have some sort of a chat with secretary taylor sent or at least some of our representatives later today so an important nato ally lets not kid around by all appearances america doesnt want to leave syria victory or no Rex Tillerson all but said so himself and that is the tragic twist to expend so many lives so much time. Money to defeat isis we need to set the stage for another war a war within the anti isis coalition. Over two hundred guards have gone on strike in one of frances most notorious prisons over security concerns. Following the strike almost one hundred twenty inmates refused to return to their cells and jail is reputed to be a hotbed of islamic extremism while me and made up to smile who was behind the deadly attacks in paris in november twenty fifth eighteen its not the first strike to hit a french prison this week with guards across the country fearing for their safety. But audiologist looking at his own eyes today weve all come here for a strike because discontent is spreading across france a crucial problem is the security of prison personnel today for each god there are ninety inmates on top of that theres the issue of islamic radicals who are also kept in our jails and who are not isolated from other inmates. Its dangerous for us to be around the inmates because for them we are everything they hate for them we are enemies by definition. Our work is very dangerous were weak teams of aggression and we experience violence which is not taken into consideration by the government. It has become more and more difficult for us to act ive seen physical aggression towards my colleagues every day but it happens every time we open the doors of support we denounce the wording in addition of our colleagues in the prison the security conditions the numerous acts of aggression against them we want salaries to be increased for those who face such risks that work as well as an increase in personnel and better security. French Justice Minister only met a number of prison workers on tuesday he outlined a ten point plan to improve their working conditions among the point she highlighted when more staff better equipment and a new director further discussion on the issue has also been shared to all from march we spoke to former m i five obvious animation she says certain types of prisoner need to be held separately. You have a situation where obviously the prison staff are concerned about their safety the ratio of reported one prison member looking after ninety prisoners is really unacceptable and it comes to safety and there have been a number of attacks as well in different prisons across france over the last few weeks showing that they are vulnerable you know to knife things and being beaten up one of the issues they really need to address is this question of how they manage the prison population because we have seen time and time and time again if the last few years with the socalled lone wolf terrorist attacks across most of the west and. Many of these people perhaps not in a hardline jihadists whove been fighting in syria but actually theyve been people who were petty criminals perhaps doubling in trucks coming out of the deprived areas of our countries and its when they were serving time for those lower level crimes that they are indeed radicalized because they can indeed associate with Islamic Jihad is in prison. Russias foreign minister Sergei Lavrov says syrian militants now have the means to produce their own chemical weapons he made the statement during a Un Security Council session on the situation in syria. Well you can you camilla tints are not only using chemical weapons but they also have their own technological and manufacturing capacity to synthesize toxic substances for military purposes. At the United NationsSecurity Council and his remarks he emphasized that while allegations against the Syrian Government regarding chemical weapons in he need to be the focus of western leaders at the same time the extremist forces that want to topple the Syrian Government are finding their capacity to develop and use chemical weapons but american and british leaders are envoys to the United Nations they repeated the same old saw that the Syrian Regime has repeatedly used chemical weapons against its own people the Syrian Regime have repeatedly used chemical weapons in syria regrettably it has been russia that has gone to Great Lengths to prevent the assad regime from being held accountable now of course the u. S. And british envoys were referring to the chemical attack in qana last april well people will remember that in the aftermath of the top we heard u. S. Leaders of neatly blaming the Syrian Government. Yesterday morning. We awoke to pictures to children of beautiful little babies being carried in the arms of desperate parents these haters actions by the assad regime cannot be tolerated later we heard about how the organization for the prohibition of chemical weapons formed the joint investigative knocking isnt. Began investigating the attack came up with a report but throughout their investigation at no point did they ever actually lose at the site of the chemical attack in conflict and this has been pointed out by russia so much focus is going to blinding the Syrian Government without much evidence. The Russian Foreign minister also pointed out that the west has turned a blind eye to Chemical Attacks by terrorists in syria while leveling the same accusation and damascus in twenty sixteen western backed militants reportedly used poison gas on several occasions in their attacks on government held areas in aleppo. Our current oh. Yes. Ok well. Look at that would. Be. Worth i think that these kinds of weapons could be just self meaning i do not think you know i dont like Nuclear Weapons there doesnt need to be part of government sponsored its not difficult getting the bizarro material we incentivize to use that would be friends with the International Community more or less definitely claim you know the security in their environment and the russians without suspecting the rebels and so the last time there was a chemical attack in the fall for. That attack him down all sorts of sympathy for the socalled Syrian Opposition then so that the rebels certainly know that. And so if they do have chemical ruffos i wouldnt be surprised if they were used for. An avalanche in southwestern siberia has killed two tourists the victims were part of a snowmobiling party and witness to the tragedy explains what happened. Last year i saw a white ball of snow coming towards the stream i thought the others would get through that everything was fine i shouted on the radio but no one answered it was silence. In this video you can see people trying to dig out survivors before five people were rescued from under three meters of snow the avalanche affected an area of around one hundred fifty square meters it happened in a popular Tourist Destination and those are your sorties dont deem it a safe place for snowmobiling. Now r. T. Have obtained a new leak from the fancy bez Hacking Group which raises questions about how doping cases were handled during the rio olympics in twenty sixteen earlier arties aber trying to discuss the revelations with nick here in. So new leaks about the summer Olympic Games twenty sixteen and remember during before and after rio the russian doping scandal was all over the news and that was when the and hire russian track and field team stayed home because of the bands well one i. O. C. Email exchange that we however can not confirm is real was about therapeutic use exemptions or to you now correct me if im wrong but is that when athletes to use banned substances for medical purposes yes if youre an athlete and youre sick and this case you may get permission to use medicines from the list of prohibited substances in a sense that is illegal doping but that requires a certificate and judging by some of these unverified emails as many as forty four such certificates were given out right during the time of the olympics and most of them just days before the olympics were over thats where all the finals are happening but according to water rules the window between the time when the application is followed the next competition must be thirty days plus if we are to believe more of these on verified emails eight. From rio were never entered into the universe so antidoping database that is interesting have we had of any consequences we dont know but i can tell you that among proved to be a real mess if it indeed happened during the rio games and we know that it is the most high profile sporting event ever the summer olympics and also another email that the fancy bears leaked was supposedly from a brazilian antidoping professor about crucial flaws and the doping test bottles again its an unverified email to the manufacturer of the bottles from the times right before the beginning of the rio olympics. It weird situation this happened the rio twenty sixteen berlinger buckles seem not all to be stand it did not fit the openness forcing them resulted in breakage of the cap and sometimes it can be used to close the a boat will after seeing photos you know just have a record of this kind of nonconformity so nikki opening the bottles could cause damage according to dr ratner if the emails are real but this is the point when i want to go back to all the russian winter olympic athletes that were banned the head of the winter Olympic Games in korea besides the testimonies and besides all the things that the main. Whistleblower grigori watching of was saying that the cornerstone element of the i. O. C. Evidence or basically the only forensic evidence was the damage on the bottles or the scratches on the ones that were used and saatchi and the question i want to know is whether both was at the center of suspicion insult produced by that same company yes they were produced by berger that was providing the antidoping officials with equipment for saatchi as well however neither the mcclaren team nor the investigators they were appointed by the International Olympic committee have ever shown us the visual results of their experiments and we were constantly told that the bottle technology is flawless but what if it isnt. The social media giants have been back before the u. S. Senate regarding alleged russian meddling in the president ial election on that after the break. But politicians do something to. Put themselves on the line. They get accepted or rejected. So when you want to be president. Or some want to be preached. To the right to be christ this is what. Real people are. Interested always in the why. Question. Welcome back social media giants Twitter Facebook and here to have again been grilled over alleged russian interference in the u. S. President ial election im assuming that none of you have any doubt that the russians meddled in our two thousand sixteen election and attacked our democracy any question. Its the latest of the u. S. Senate hearings the strange social media giants have participated in this time twitter also announced it was preparing that soon to wall news about russian trolls well this is sparked concern about exactly how these trolls will be identified arties Daniel Corkins takes a closer look. This time theyve been grilled at a u. S. Senate Committee Session about dealing with terrorist content and other dangerous materials a letter that i wrote calling these companies to individual inform all users who are exposed to false misleading and inflammatory post generated by russian agents we will be working to identify and inform individually the users who may have been exposed to the ira accounts during the election now facebook already enables users to check if theyve been exposed to russian bots and trolls from an apparent russian troll factory named the Internet Research agency which so division and mistrust back in twenty sixteen for enough if you buy the Russian Election meddling narrative but it doesnt stop there now it seems twitter is going down the same road we dont yet know the full details of how this will work but in a hidden recording of a Journalist Group project veritas allegedly discovered how exactly twitter picked out other apparent bots. Its good we. Just look at what you. Guys. Look really. Good. For sure but now we have requests that comment from twitter can they confirm that the top aimed at tackling and identifying these kremlin trolls is one hundred percent effective what are you supposed to do in the case of a mistake or the company has previously stated people in similar recordings didnt represent official views project veritas of course themselves have in the past been at the center of controversy as a result of their methods for tackling bots is all well and good but what about talk. Opinions that are controversial unsavory or unfavorable light evaded for anyone. To think. That it. So next time youre browsing social media and come across material that may go against the grain dont overthink things the platform itself will give you a heads up what to believe or not and we spoke to independent political and financial commentators gary and Paul Rosenberg they told us twitter could face repercussions over how it treats its users and possibly even legal action. Theyre a big company and if they try to defame small individuals well the world Class Action Lawsuit means something in the United States where most of this is going on so this is something the twitter needs to be very careful about this do they really want to expose themselves to these kinds of claims just to make their friends and congress happy about an election thats well over a year old at this point its really ridiculous and if the lawsuits start to come in and of peoples pockets start to be crunched then i think well see possibly a slightly more rational reaction how stupid do twitter really think us the members of the public or that we need to be warned about this as though it was something that actually matters like credit card fraud or allegations of trading obscene images online this is just an exchange of opinions and by barking up the tree of trying to expose the source its really just trying to talk down to people as if theyre not intelligent enough to make an informed decision based on a variety of opinions that they come across online from a number of different sources in every country on earth just about twitter is doing this to keep politicians happy these companies dont really have your their users interest in heart the users dont pay them. The user uses twitter or facebook or google or whomever for free so youre not the client youre not the customer youre the product and they are selling you and your personal information to whomever gives them money or whatever in recompense for it. Twelve activists in the California City of as catch can may now face jail after they were caught trying to feed Homeless People in a park according to current legislation its illegal to share food in public places. Were going to love you you know. Because you know we are out of you know. The citys ban on sharing food in public was introduced last october to prevent an outbreak of the Infectious Disease hepatitis a the penalty for breaking the law coming up to a thousand dollar fine or even six months in prison when we talk to the activists who were caught by police they claim the legislation has the opposite effect of what its meant to do the Homeless People who were there were a very thing fall that we were standing up and they were very upset that the mayor in the City Council Members could pass such a heartless ordinance and none of those government officials come out to the park and talk to those people it really seems like this is part of the city for to realize homelessness theyve already made me that against the law to panhandle to sleep on the sidewalk so this is really like the next step in trying to push the homeless out of their city and the big justification that they use was the happening outbreak in the indiegogo and they say all the parkers the parks are so contaminated with hepatitis a that we dont want the Homeless People to catch it and so are trying to protect but everybody else can still go and have a party at the park and share food with each other and they wrote that into the ordinance and thats what makes that discriminatory because it targets. Everybody else is not magically immune from have to try to stay within the same space so clearly there are this is not about hepatitis a and the mayor has made comments in Public Session at the City Council Meetings where he has said were trying to make the park less inviting to Homeless People and the recent report by the un on human rights has outlined the difficulties Homeless People currently face in america. We see an average of seven to eight hundred people every single day. Congress has reached an agreement on tax legislation that move deliver more jobs higher wages and massive tax relief. Since our session we have not recovered the homeless homelessness has actually increased theres a problem with high Property Values air b. N. B. Is buying up local properties and evicting the tenants the mayor of alcohol would like everyone to think that all Homeless People are drug addicts and that is absolutely not the case we have a very High Percentage of our homeless are veterans we have a High Percentage of people who are working in this growing criminalization of people who are poor and powerless. Really is also a bigger problem with the mass incarceration of that happens in our country where we have for profit prisons with Companies Making money off of jailing people.
