Cells with 250 or 300 detainees packed into. 10 metres and. This is all to International Thanks for joining us. Sometimes National Security team is expected to meet a little later on thursday senior officials from across the government all set to consider a response to the drone attacks on Saudi Arabian oil fields last weekend the president though is still unclear what option hes leaning towards. I mean you may have some very strong here and well see what happens a lot of things could happen if we can have a peaceful solution thats good its possible that that wont happen the u. S. Says its confident iran is responsible and vows to impose new sanctions on tehran to remind you last saturday a dozen cruise missiles more than 20 drones in a Major Oil Field and Processing Plant in the east of the kingdom the attack which yemeni rebels claimed they carried out knocked out 5 percent of the global all supply and saw the price of oil rocket on his rug as the looks or whatever dence has been presented it has been decided that iran did it and that started opinion or a finding with the result of an investigation thats a decision guilty secretary did you gather any new evidence that shows who was behind the attacks and do you think you have a slam dunk case to bring to the u. N. Next week. I think its abundantly clear and there is an enormous consensus in the region that we know precisely who conducted these attacks was iran i didnt hear anybody in the region who doubted that for a single month trub is doing what trump does best signing pieces of paper bringing to bear a slew of new sanctions against iran to come into effect within 48 hours and it isnt done and well see what happens well see what happens i think we have a lot of good capital and we have to do something well do it without hesitation the americans who werent attacked of already decided what happened then who is guilty the saudis who were attacked and have all the day bri and bits and pieces of the missiles are still working on technicalities like evidence and proof let that sink in. The attack did not originate from yemen the attack was launched from the move and was unquestioned be sponsored by iran its not in the range of yemens capabilities if it was them who conducted the attack this is one of the missiles we have recovered and we have information that leads us to the source of these kind of components were made in iran so what they found is the weapons were allegedly made with iranian components they were fired from the north the direction of iran and its neighbors so cutting to the chase it was iran thats what youre going to say right. The rain regime and the i. R. G. C. Are trying to hide any evidence of the components and the Technology Im sure we will spot a launch site were working on whoever is responsible about to take the accountability not once during the presentation that the saudis specifically say that iran did it and theres no love lost if they could they would say it but technicalities but saudi arabia wont do brave journalists will too happy to undeniable evidence of a reign in aggression and it almost has the fingerprints of the revolutionary guard and its influence over the hutu rebels tonight u. S. Intelligence indicates the unprecedented attack on Saudi Oil Fields originated from around our top intelligence officials think iran did it and so does our top an intelligence official donald trump course 1 may ask what on earth saudi defenses were doing at the time theyve got the 3rd biggest military budget on earth one of americas best clients the countrys livid with patriot and other anti Missile Systems 80000000000. 00 a year should protect you from a score of drones and missiles no. The News Conference from the Saudi Arabian defense ministries press secretary is a catastrophe for saudi arabia theyve shown they cannot prove or know exactly where the cruise missiles and drones were made from exactly with that attack was launched or why a Defense Systems could not prevent that tank the only thing that might be iranian related is that maybe some of the equipment some of the technology that the who these have might have been incorporated into the attack but why why or why is anyone complaining especially the saudis since the u. S. Has been providing the bombs and the aircraft to the saudis to bomb yemen for 4 years so the who are these are just responding back then again to those saying its iran because there are alleged iranian components in the day bri does that mean that the u. S. Is responsible for horrific massacre in yemen i mean sure saudi arabia dropped the bombs but those say made in the United States more likely than not the dia arabia has been clearing the shelves of american arms manufacturers recently by this logic is new need to investigate or collect evidence its american bombs it has got to be america. An entire country reduced to misery and pain untold thousands dead more to die but you know what its the oil refinery in saudi arabia the book wires vengeance. Meanwhile irans foreign minister Mohammad Javad zarif has warned any strike against iran by the u. S. Or saudi arabia would lead to all out war the un sent a team of experts to saudi arabia to vesta gave last weeks drone missile attacks are said to us and landing necessity for them by sproat. It is important to make the investigation objective details are numb biased and if the allegations against iran that are not backed up by facts do not help the situation only intensify tensions in the region where the risk of confrontation is already high school on american surface to air missiles known as patriots have miss our detection areas and kill zones as the Russian Defense minister puts it the dearness acts are actually carried out in the middle of those areas middle east expert ali risk believes that the case demonstrates the failure of u. S. And saudi antiMissile Systems while i think these attacks expose the limits of the capabilities of both the United States and saudi arabia and i think that the conclusion which has to be reached by the company is that it can no longer continue to support this war in yemen but rather it has to go into talks or enter some kind of a diplomatic process in order to put an end to this situation theres been numerous attempts theyve been un mediations and they have been other diplomatic initiatives all of it has failed and the other states the Trump Administration has in fact doubled down on its support for the war on the amman so i think that the money of course thieves were given no choice but to escalate attacks with the paper of forcing the enemy to bell down and to put a stop to this war and to find some kind of mother another supplement a peaceful settlement for the conflict that we have in fact seen the trunk administration and sanctions or this talk now about Cyber Attacks which talk could targeting iran but as for the out war i think that is very unlikely. After an almost 2 month large scale maritime operation the Global Security body interpol says it is detected at least a dozen suspected foreign terrorist fighters evented the continent by crossing the mediterranean with details. This is operation she ran to the idea is it to look for threats posed by foreign terrorist fighters who may be using maritime brits or forcing them at training in attempts to get into the showing the area into the European Union interpol of said that during the oprah show in the summer there were so one point she would 1000000 checks that took place this is checks that just looking at peoples legal documents making sure that they all who they say they are and they see as a result of all of those checks they intercepted 12 individuals who they believe all potential terrorists interpol says its always only god when information is shared between regions buy into Pools Networks of the global level and every check Border Control or random search is a potential break in the terror investigation well no so the details have been released about those individuals such as where theyre from or indeed which works they use are trying to get into the European Union but many will be concerned that this is yet another element to this the only issue of immigration the e. U. Leaders are yet to agree a way forward on we know ministers will meet next week to discuss that but countries such as italy greece and rome said that they are shown during the heavy burden and theyve asked for other European Countries to do more to help out and there is this concern that although the numbers in the last 3 years have been declining in the last few days there has been a shopping crease in areas such as greece leading to see is that they could be another story yet again the migration present michael was in italy on wednesday evening to meet the prime in the suggests that people say and he said that it is time to listen to those countries on the up to the European Union is not shown enough solidarity with the countries of 1st arrival particularly italy but france is ready. Move forward on this point i hope that together we can work towards a new stronger a more united solution i believe that here too we can defend the common position with the new European Commission so that all countries can put to support me in some form of European Solidarity in this area or be penalized financially and its not just how to deal with the sheer number of migrants that europe has seen coming into the continent over the last 2 years its also about what they do when they hear and we know that the commissioner designate for the European Union will delay and is going to have to deal with it hes already been criticised the some of the things that shes put in place just in the last week or so she announced that the commission of that would be looking off to the brief of immigration would be cool to the commissioner for the european way of life some accusing her of the using fractious rhetorical with that title including the president. Who said he just didnt agree with the idea of this title so an issue of immigration many elements to it and it looks like its far from over and its something that European Union leaders and also their ministers will be discussing for many months to come. The Un Security Council has rejected to draft resolutions on the humanitarian crisis in the syrian province of idlib failing to find consensus on key points of disagreement between russia and the us what is killing more than explains why the un is again running headfirst into brick walls when it comes to syria. The 15 member body that leads the United Nations convened a meeting and at that meeting 2 resolutions were put forward now one resolution was backed by germany kuwait and belgium and that resolution was vetoed by russia and china then a joint resolution from russia and china regarding it was put forward and that resolution was also rejected vetoed by members of the Security Council so what was the difference between these 2 resolutions regarding the situation and it well both sides and both different resolutions called for a ceasefire there is universal agreement that there needs to be a ceasefire in libya now the russian representative explained the point of disagreement between the United States and russia regarding the draft resolution while the United States seems to advocate an entire total cease fire russia argued there should not be protection for terrorist organizations and that anti terror operations should continue heres some of the disagreement we heard between the United States and russia at the Security Council look. Unfortunately the content of the draft on the course of the work on it is a clear indication of the real objective of our colleagues which is to save the International Terrorists in from their final defeat and put the blame of whats happened them on russia and syria russians veto of todays resolution russias 13th veto in syria represents yet another attempt to absolve itself and the assad regime of their culpability in the deaths of thousands of syrian men women and children as the debate ensued it became pretty clear there was pretty solid disagreement about what was designated as a terrorist and what was designated as just Syrian Opposition now the russian representative said that the the proposal and the draft resolution put forward by kuwait germany and belgium was going. To be vetoed it was very clear that russia would veto that resolution before it was put forward but it seems that rather than trying to reach a solution that is agreeable to all parties the desire as according to the russian representative or the desire is simply to blame russia for the continued situation in the breaching of the ceasefire rather than reaching an agreement that could actually stick so different views of the situation is presented by Different Countries at the u. N. Security council no resolution was passed both of them were rejected. The leader of the israeli opposition insists that he will have a unity government not spend human netanyahu its up to the Prime Ministers bloc and the opposition both to win a majority in a snap election. According to the Election Commission we have received 33. 00 seats and netanyahu did not achieve the bloc that he had hoped to achieve citizens of israel want to the unity government even after previous elections and they want it now i was talking about it almost for the whole year i intend to create a wide unity government with me is the leader. I was surprised and disappointed by the fact that as of now benny gantz still refuses my call to meet the president called for unity and without a meeting between the 2 Major Party Leaders a unity government cannot be formed the opposition the the statement comes after netanyahu called him to form a coalition with 97 percent of the vote now counted and yahoo sent to write likud bloc is 2 seats behind the center left blue and White Alliance on wednesday the Prime Minister added if he doesnt lead the government it will be quote dangerous and receive this mandate from arab parties he spoke to diplomatic analyst dan ronan who thinks there will be a struggle for the leadership of a coalition. Netanyahu is somewhat disappointment that gunns is refusing even to meet him so we are in a quite skeptical phase now theres never going to be a 3rd round here 9999 percent certain here i think we are going for as said by those 2 leaders for a Coalition Unity government. Everyone they think is trying to play the tough guy here who is going to be the one who will get the mandate to be the leader who will serve under whom by any by any position by also by this ministry by this portfolio in negotiation psychology here thats the main thing im seeing here behind the scenes. 2 major attacks in afghanistan that left 50 people dead one was carried down by the taliban the other by the Afghan Government which missed took its target more details as local journalists will turn flies a. Powerful suicide bombing targeted south and Zabul Province this morning killing at least 20 people according to david local provincial Council Members taliban claimed responsibility for this attack claiming that they have targeted a local intelligence compound but also a local hospital was damaged and many people have been killed and wounded there so the local official said they try to transfer as many as they could to the neighboring province of kandahar this is happening while at the talks between the u. S. And the taliban has halted and stopped and the fighting between these 2 groups i mean the government of the taliban has intensified in Different Levels in front lines as well as in the cities and in the outskirts specially in the districts so we had heard another incident deadly incident that happened in eastern part of afghanistan that u. S. Backed afghans. Forces targeted a group of farmers that were there for harvesting pine outs and according to the local officials around 30 people have been killed and local gov office saying that they have transferred 9 dead bodies and 6 wounded to the local hospital to local provincial Governor Office announced their target was a dice militance. Research analyst at the center for conflict and peace studies. Believes the Afghan Government needs to carefully investigate its mistake if it wants to keep the support of the public. But of the media reports suggest that it was a drone attack drone attacks can only be carried out by the americans its a serious matter and should be investigated thoroughly the Afghan Government is often silent when it comes to civilian casualties particularly. By the International Forces so i think this is this is a serious problem in and if it continues it will widen the gap between the. Population in the garment and at the same time create more enemies for the ones in the American Forces its the responsibility of all parties the Afghan Government the americans and the taliban to resume negotiations i think everybody here has a stake and are responsible for whats happening in afghanistan in the last then the in for the killing of afghans that are losing their lives in. An empty terrorists crackdown in nigeria has led to thousands of children being detained thats according to a new report from Human Rights Watch we spoke to them about their findings. Since 2013 nigeria has detained about 3600 children and in june a Human Rights Watch went to the northeast of nigeria where boko haram its most active and we interviewed more than 30 children who had been detained the vast majority of these children were never charged with a crime in fact they were never taken to court they never had the opportunity to see a judge the children were denied contact with their families and held in orrible conditions they described so little space that they couldnt turn over at night they were you know piled one next to the other they described it like the razor blades a pack many of them something began losing hope that they would ever be released some thought that they would die in detention children as young as 5 were reportedly held in overcrowded military detention facilities on little or no evidence they spent months even years there without charge with reports of sexual physical or mental abuse it was also overcrowding the children have been accused of involvement with the Armed Terrorist Group boko haram radical islamist organizations based in northeastern nigeria that carries out suicide bombings as well as on the salt right through west africa 2050 book around pledged allegiance to Islamic State and if the imprisoned children were rounded up by nigerian authorities during military operations against the group. They are smee if i was a member of booker her and beat me up when i said no they tied my hands and legs and hung me to a tree and continued to flow camy they flogged me and left me tied to the tree from morning till evening one person from my village was killed during the interrogation if you make a noise if you drink water without asking them if you go toward the door to get fresh air they beat you. The soldiers had girlfriends one of the girls from our village was a girl friend of a soldier she would usually take her out of the compound some leaders got pregnant in the cell and delivered while i was there. Well the nigerian authorities have released over 2000 children from detention since 2013 nearly all of whom have been held without charge its not known at this point just how many of them remain in custody is joe becker again saying the government should make more of an effort to release them nobody knows the current number of children who may still be in military custody nigerian authorities do not allow the or independent organizations like Human Rights Watch to access the military Detention Centers but what Human Rights Watch is calling for is that nigerian authorities release any remaining children in military detention and transfer them to civilian Child Protection authorities so that they can receive rehabilitation help or unifying with their families and reintegrating into their communities the Nigerian Military denies the allegations in the report saying the children are kept in secure reus and adequately cared for we have us the Nigerian Ministry of justice to comment they have yet to respond. And finally a famous pakistani novelist has been denied a german literary award over her political activism shes been calling for a boycott of israeli goods on the quarter reports. The city of dortmund has reversed its decision to hand a literary awards to british pakistani author Kamila Shamsie that she plagiarized something commit a crime perhaps now its all because she supports an anti Israel Movement called boycott divestment sanctions. The time of the decision none of the jurors knew that Kamila Shamsie had supported the boycotts divestments and sanctions campaign in the past b s aims to isolate israel economically politically and culturally b. D. s has a presence across much of the globe but in germany its had a few run ins with the government the palestinian Womens Organization recently sued the city of boston for being excluded from the festival and the court ruled that discrimination based on the organizations belief in b. D. S. Was unfair treatment. Of freedom of expression includes the freedom to discuss and call for boycott of campaigns and is also protected by the European Convention on human rights however this case is the exception not the rule the border stock has made it clear they see b. D. S. As an anti sematic movement not just anti israel. The arguments and methods of the boycott divestment and sanctions movement are anti semitic the message of the campaign to boycott israeli activists and goods or im innocent of the most terrible period in german history the do not buy a stick is an israeli products bring back associations with the nazi slogan do not buy from jews and similar graffiti in facades and shop windows the law makers concern isnt out of the blue given germanys past but calling the movement nazis could be a bit of a stretch since b. D. s are mostly left wing activists calling attention to israels mistreatment of the Palestinian People and the palestinians who are protesting say its not the palestinians who are doing the oppressing just like you know this protest represents the 1st step in confronting the german parliaments motion which is against our arab nation and against the palestinian cause they are part of the. Netanyahu axis that tries to crush the rights of our people and the right to return the boy movement to continue and this is supported by the Palestinian Liberation Organization along with youth and student groups around the world more and more politicians are questioning israels policies as oppressive risking being called anti sematic along the way i cant stand by and watch this attack on our freedom of speech and the right to boycott the racist policies of the government in the state of israel the oppressive thats in the whole administration and i have seen this in gaza where families have lived that have been bombed by talk to bombing by israeli jets what the United States should be doing and of course the trumpet ministrations doing exactly the opposite is instead of applauding israel for its actions israel should be condemned germanys past is certainly still haunting to many after all you cant just wipe its horrors out of history but when it comes to israel and palestine its not a simple as black and white donald quarter r. T. Berlin this is r. T. Thanks for staying with me for the its all written in half. A syrian conflict mediation never has spoken with one voice but recently disagreement between russia and iran has become so still look good not even the leaders try to hide as the program run its course or is the friction really a sign that its working. Something. I think the men that we attract to the military you know weve got to the army of one you know be all you can be all those themes that weve had throughout the years very very heavily masculine masculinity cannot be victimized because if youre a leader if youre a masculine person and youre victimized then youre weak the problem is that anybody can be a victim of sexual assault. I join the service in 1972 the military is a great way to life. See the world. I got educated i love the military. Was 19 and i want to challenge all alone and the next thing i was laying on the ground i was struck from behind and 2 guys hold me down and one guy was pulling my pants down. And. He was taking care of his business and you know struggled and i was being struck and hit and told you know what they. On me. And i see i would destroy my life. I mean that im ive been married 3 times this luckily i have a wife right now who ive been married to for 25 years. You start wondering you start sort of you know youre coming up with reasons why things are the way they are and for a long time i kept thinking i dont know all this something something else. I had never told anybody over 30 years
