International thank you for joining us but we start aberlour so with some breaking news from brazil these are the latest pictures from Rio De Janeiro or a car has plowed into a crowd near the iconic copacabana beach injuring at least fifteen people all of these have been taken to hospitals with theres no information as yet on the severity of their injuries the driver was reportedly epileptic and his medication was found in his car Police Reports that officers arrived in time to prevent the crowd at the scene from attacking the driver its still unclear if the incident is an act of terror well bring you more on this story as soon as we have it. Now the u. S. Has urged turkey not to attack syrias african region and focus on fighting isis instead thats according to the state Department Spokesperson has a network. 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 turkey 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 following ankaras furious reaction washington seems to have tracked r. T. Senior correspondent what i guess the of 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 pretty new 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 missed but 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 is return on paper for now and if turkey 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 and money to defeat isis we need to set the stage for another war a war within the anti isis coalition. Over two hundred guns have gone on strike you want to frances most notorious prisons over security concerns. Was. Was. The was following the strike almost one hundred twenty inmates refused to return to their cells jail is reputed to be a hotbed of islamic extremism among the inmates in the slum who was behind the deadly attacks in paris in november twenty fifth dean its not the first trying to hit a french prison this week with guards across the country fearing for their safety. But audiologists lost only look 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 like im seeing physical aggression towards my colleagues every day it happens every time we open the doors of people supported we denounce the working 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 at work as well as an increase in personnel and better security. French Justice Minister nicola mess a number of prison workers on tuesday she outlined a ten point plan to improve their working conditions among the point she highlighted were more staff better equipment and a new director of further discussion on the issue has been shared march we spoke to former m i five i was animation she said certain types of prisoners need to be health 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 you know tonight 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 these socalled lone wolf terrorist attacks across most of the west and how many of these people perhaps are not in a hard line jihadists who have been fighting in syria but actually theyve been people who were petty criminals perhaps doubling in drugs 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 and made the statement during a u. N. Security Council Session on the situation in syria. Religions are not only using chemical weapons but they also have their own technological and manufacturing capacity to synthesize toxic substances for military purposes i wasnt. Speaking of United NationsSecurity Council in his remarks he emphasized that while allegations against the Syrian Government regarding chemical weapons considered 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 im working on british leaders are there envoys to the United Nations they repeated the same old saw 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 of course the u. S. And british envoys were referring to the chemical attack in qana last april well people will remember that after. We heard u. S. Leaders immediately 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 locking as. Began investigating the attack came up with a report but throughout their investigation at no point did they ever actually use at the site of the chemical attack in consciously koon and this has been pointed out by russia 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 learning to Chemical Attacks by terrorists in syria while leveling the same accusation at damascus and trying to sixteen western backed militants reportedly use poison gas on several occasions in their attacks on government held areas in aleppo. Really slow. Ok. Lets look at that. Will be. I think that these kinds of weapons could be just selfmade i do not think you know i dont like Nuclear Weapons there doesnt need to be a lot of government sponsored its not difficult getting into those our own material so we incentivized to use them to be friends with the International Community more and thats definitely made him you know the security in their environments and the russians without suspecting the route and so the last time there was a record out in the fall for. That of track him down all sorts of sympathy for the socalled Syrian Opposition fighters so that the rebels certainly know that. And so if they do have chemical ruffos i wouldnt be surprised if they were used in. An avalanche in southwestern siberia has killed two tourists the victims were part of a snowmobiling party and witness to the tragedy explained what happened. I saw a white ball of snow coming towards the stream i thought the others would get through and 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 five people were rescued from under three meters of snow the avalanche affected an area around one hundred fifty square meters it happened in a popular Tourist Destination but the or so it is dont deal with a safe place for snowmobiling. Party has obtained a new leak from the fancy bears Hacking Group which raises questions about how do you think cases were handled during the rio olympics in twenty sixteen earlier arties elaborate and go discuss the revelations with nicky aaron. 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 higher 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 a valid 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 legal 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 universal 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. Did it weird situation this happened the rio twenty sixteen berlinger buckles seem not all to be stand it did not fit the open is forcing them resulted in breakage of the cap and sometimes it cant be used to close the able to after. Photos you know just have a record of this kind of nonconformity so nicky 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 the cornerstone element of the i. O. C. Evidence or basically the only forensic evidence was the damage the bottles or the scratches on the ones that were used in saatchi and the question i want to know that as to whether both was at the center of suspicion insult che produced by that same company yes they were produced by burger that was providing the antidoping officials with equipment for 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.

Twelve activists in the californian city of alcohol in may now face jail after they were course trying to feed Homeless People in a park according to current legislation its illegal to share food in public places. Or at this point because you feel like. You know we are you know if you know even the family. The citys ban on sharing food in public was introduced last october to prevent an outbreak of the Infectious Disease appetite as a the penalty for breaking the law can be up to a thousand dollar fine or even six months in prison but we talked to the activists who were caught by the police they claim the legislation has the opposite effect of what its meant to do. Homeless people who were there were very things 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 that park and talk to those people it really seems like this is part of the city for to criminalize homelessness theyve already made me to be in the law to panhandle to sleep on the sidewalk so this is really like the next thing in trying to push the homeless out of their city and the big justification that they use was the happening outbreak in the in the eggo and they say all the parkers the parks are so contaminated with hepatitis a that we dont want the Homeless People to catch 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 a discriminatory because it targets the whole nature its everybody else is not magically immune from have to try to say within the same space so clearly either 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 a recent report by the un on human rights soon as outlined the difficulties Homeless People in america currently face. We see an average of seven to eight hundred people every single day. Congress has reached an agreement on tax legislation that will deliver more joy higher wages and massive tax relief. Since the recession 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 about the home 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. Who for more on these and plenty of other stories that go to our website and. Otherwise ill be back with the latest headlines at the top of the either. With the Islamic State in its many confederates defeated or facing defeat in syria what is next for this war torn country what justification exists for the u. S. To maintain military forces there does washington want syria partition itself then why. Young children have worked in bolivia for generations almost three quarters of a million are doing so today. This culture led to the development of bolivias new liberal and highly controversial childrens code in two thousand and fourteen which gave children as young as ten the right to work under certain circumstances one does anything as. This all moves. Me but without the end off. From the things years. But there are hundreds of thousands of children in bolivia operating completely outside the local. Mining work is strictly forbidden by the children but its never enforced and that means the school boy minus continue risking their lives for the money they need to survive. Thanks guys or financial survival. When customers go buy your supplies. Then else well reduce some lower. Thats undercutting but whats good for market is not good for the global economy.
