Welcome to our viewers in the u. S. And around the world. This is cnn. Im natalie allen. We begin in iraq where isis has again destroyed Cultural Treasures and artifacts during outrage across the globe and iraqi official says the militants bulldozed the site of the ancient syrian city ever nimrud. Some call this a cultural cleansing by isis as they destroy history and heritage. It is a huge loss and tragedy for the whole of humanity and, of course my reaction is one of anger because we do believe that the destruction of heritage, the deliberate i would say, destruction of heritage in iraq becomes part of the warfare and also its part of a strategy of cultural cleansing that exterminates already with the looting of sites, with the persecution of minorities, attacks on people and destroying the incredible Cultural Diversity of iraq and also of its priceless heritage. I think the way they construct their strategy of erasing the culture and heritage is disappointing. Nimruds culture is the latest to be destroyed. The tomb of joan a was destroyed in a bombing last year. The great mosque of aleppo, once one of the oldest reduced to rubble in 2013. Insurgents bombed the great mosque of samara in 2005 and in 2001 the giant buddhist in afghanistan more than 1500 years old were destroyed in explosions set by the taliban. Of course its not just historical relics but hundreds of thousands of innocent civilians who could be caught in the cross hairs of isis. 350,000 people in the syrian city of deir ezsor. Across the border youll see some progress in defeating isis. Iaqi supporters captured a town on the outskirts of tikrit. They can cleared isis from the town of al baghdadi. Thats critical because its near a key base where u. S. Marines are training iraqi troops. Iraqi forces drove isis from several villages south of al baghdadi baghdadi. All of this while the u. S. Is keeping an eye on iran in iraq. Iraqs military reliance is making some leaders quite nervous. Reporter the latest u. S. Military assessment, most of the fighters here are iranian backed shia militia with iranian weapons fighting to reclaim the city of tikrit. Irans farsi language heard here and field commanders look at their plan. Iran watching them happy to have the iranians do the bulk of the Ground Fighting but worried again it could open up a cauldron of shia versus the sunni violence. For the sunni and shia sectarianism that has happened for years, it could be strategically disastrous. Reporter they worry the government could become a tragic country of iran. The risk is that it all falls into iranian hands. In terms of ensuring that our resources dont migrate over to shia militia, theres no easy way to be absolutely certain that that cant happen. Reporter the u. S. Wants iraqs Prime Minister to guarantee a government and military with sunni representation vital to stopping sunni support for isis. Abani just announcing his Security Forces east of fallujah and west of ramadi are launching new operations in the sunni heartland. Iraqs reliance on iran apparently working in eldur south of tikrit which baghdad says has been liberated. A potential u. S. Victory of sorts. Theyre advising the military. Theyve been liberated according to the coalition. Dont count on the u. S. Joining forces with iran. There is no cooperation between us and the iranian forces. Were going to have to count on the Iraqi Government to do those things necessary to number one, ensure that things dont trend towards greater sectarian violence. Reporter there may not be formal cooperation with iran but a senior u. S. Military official tells me that when Coalition War planes arent in the skies, when they are flying the Bombing Missions the u. S. Tells the iraqis where the planes are and relies on the iraqis to tell the iranians to stay away. Barbara starr, cnn, the pentagon. Westerners were apparently the target at a shooting in mali that left at least five people dead. Two people are under arrest. It happened in the capitol at a nightclub that is popular with people from the west. One witness tells cnn the shooters were targeting foreigners specifically caucasians. One french citizen, one belgian, and three people from mali are among the dead. A Police Officer and a guard were killed in the street as the attackers left. A bomb in egypts now delta region has left one person dead according to Egyptian State media, 11 others are wounded in that blast which happened outside of a bank. The person killed was a police sergeant. Theres no word yet on who might be responsible. An american missionary is now free after being captured in central nigeria nearly two weeks ago. Phyllis sortor was captured where boko haram does not operate. They wanted a ransom of more than 300,000. U. S. Officials wont comment on the release but say negotiations were involved. Well it still seems impossible that a plane carrying 239 people vanished, but it did. And its been a year since mh 370 disappeared and what happened to it remains a complete mystery. As Suzanne Malveaux reports, the search goes on. Reporter one year later and still nothing. The search team still insists the debris field is here on the ocean floor, a location they say satellite data reports to. Above the Water Surface search crews are still weathering cyclones and 50 foot waves. Below, mountains, trenches volcanos make up the treacherous terrain. 40 of the priority search zone has been covered but no wreckage recovered. And with no real clues as to what happened to the boeing 777 after it lost radar contact an hour into the flight which took off from kuala lumpur theories abound. A recent New York Times report cites the rogue pilot option. They think that the pilot and copilot intentionally took the plane off course. There is no evidence that either had motive to do so. The chief of the Malaysian Airlines says they had no reason. The captain is a very capable man. The sister urged people to stop blaming her brother. She said as things stand today, with no tangible evidence none of you have any right to blame captain shah for any wrongdoing. As an average student in school he would not have been able to master mind such a plot. Nobody knows why the plane lost contact. Some theorize there could have been a massive electrical problem, a cockpit fire or a cabin fire turning it into a ghost plane. Why isnt hasnt shown up yet, that is the true mystery of it. If it had crashed in the way we think it did, to hit the water and break up into pieces there would be pieces somewhere. Aviation analyst jeff wise carried on his own theory. Russian operatives who took the plane. None of these theories can be proven or disproven until some shred of the plane is found. Even then we may never know exactly what happened. The families of those on board the plane still wait in agony for any news about their loved ones. To remember the passengers and crew a cantle light vigil was held on kuala lumpur. At least one woman is holding out hope her husband is still coming home. Translator this year has been very painful. I dont know what happened. For me this is a torture. Its changed our life a lot. I hope the plane will appear soon that my husband will come back soon. Now that were in malaysia we also hope the malaysian government can meet us instead of avoiding us. We remember those days and those days are still here one year later. Lets go down to anna coren. Shes live in kuala lumpur. Certainly you have talked to so many of these families in the past year youve covered the search anna. Certainly understand that theyre holding out hope. They just want to because they just dont have any answers. That woman is certainly not alone, is she . Reporter no, absolutely not natalie. I think she puts it very well. This is torture. It has been torture for all the families of the 239 people on board mh 370. We are now hearing from some of those families that they are angry that this interim report which will be released by the malaysians tomorrow is, in fact going to be released on the day of the anniversary, the one Year Anniversary since the boeing 777 vanished off the radar. They say that its insensitive, that they could have picked another day. Now this interim report is expected to be a technical investigation. Its made up of an international committee. On that committee were talking about australia, the United States the u. K. China, france singapore as well as boeing rolls royce. So certainly a lot of bodies involved in this report which is expected to have 600 pages. We had heard from the malaysian government that the families are going to receive that report before it is made public but as i say, hearing from those families today, they are furious that it is being released on the same day of the anniversary. They say they could have picked another time to release this information. We certainly caught up with the transport minister and asked him with the overwhelming criticism about the way that malaysia has handled this crisis in particular with the families. They feel like a nuisance. The media has known before they have been informed. Take a listen to what he has to say. These are such details. This report come to us and specify all the objects that are under sea base so i think that to say that we didnt give details, not true. I think we should further engage them. Youre saying you should further engage them. Has not enough been done . You see, its not that. If they feel that they are not given enough then we will do more. Reporter yeah malaysians saying there have been Lessons Learned in this tragedy. Certainly they have improved their protocols as far as security goes. Remember that there were two passengers on board, two iranian passengers that were holding false passports. They will also improve their flight tracking system which, of course extremely important considering the plane vanished from the radar, natalie. All right. Anna coren, thank you from kuala lumpur. Join us for a cnn special report as told by correspondents like anna who were there when the plane disappeared and have continued to follow the search for the flight and in talking with families.

Police attacked them with night sticks whips and even a rubber hose wrapped in barbed. That day lives infamously as bloody sunday. President obama and 100 members of congress will be in selma for the anniversary. John lewis had his skull fractured that day. Athena jones has his story. The bridge of selma is almost a holy place. It is a place where people gave a little blood to redeem the soul of america. In this city people couldnt register to vote simply because of the color of their skin so they had to change that. Reporter john lewis, who has spent almost three decades in congress,s was just 25 years ago. I can never forget what it felt like to be in that experience on bloody sunday. We came to the highest point. Down below we saw a sea of blue. Alabama state troopers and behind the state troopers we saw men on horseback so when we got within hearing distance of the state troopers youre ordered to disperse go home or go to your church. The major said, troopers advance. I thought over and over again, they going to arrest us. They came clubbing us beating us with night sticks trampling us with horses. I went down on my knees. My legs went out from under me. I thought i was going to die. Reporter he was carried back to the church where the march had begun. It was there he issued a challenge to president lyndon johnson. I stood up and said i dont understand how president johnson can send troops to vietnam but cannot send troops to selma, alabama alabama. Reporter after bloody sunday president johnson spoke to congress. It is wrong, deadly wrong, to deny any of your fellow americans the right to vote in this country. Its not just negros but really its all of us who must overcome the crippling legacy of bigotry and injustice, and we shall overcome. He was the First American president to use the theme song. I looked at dr. King tears came down his face. I started crying. I didnt like to cry in front of people but i cried. President johnson federalized Alabama National law, called out parts of the United States military to protect us all the way from selma to montgomery. Reporter on august 6th president johnson signed a landmark Voting Rights act ensuring that all citizens could vote regardless of their color. It was bloody sunday that helped make that day possible. Its also why lewis returns to this bridge every year. The vote is powerful. It is the most power full nonviolent tool we have in our Democratic Society and i dont want people to forget that people paid a price. Reporter athena jones, cnn, selma, alabama.

The 197 mattress sale. Bulldog oh boy Television Announcer . Is ending soon. Mattress discounters new nasa Research Suggests the red planet was at one point very blue. Scientists believe about 4 billion years ago an ancient ocean on mars held the same amount of water as earths arctic ocean. Cnns adam dunaghy looks at how instruments on the surface helped find these lost oceans. Reporter mars 2015 a planet of rock and red dust. But it wasnt always like this. Ridges like these in the martian hint that water once flowed here but was once a mystery until now. According to new research from nasa this is mars around 4. 5 billion years ago, a planet with a vast ocean covering nearly 20 of its surface and as deep as the mediterranean. Mapping the waters of mars required data from the red planet itself and even some from right here on earth. Its a collection of knowledge of meet logic records, spacecraft and ground bases that have allowed us to get a nice picture of how water evolved on the planet. Reporter key to the discovery were measurements of this rare form of water. It contains a heavier form of hydrogen which prevents it from leaving the Martian Atmosphere and being blown into space. The higher concentration allowed scientists to concentrate how much more water the planet had. Current estimates show only 13 of the original martian water remains on the planet with most stored as polar ice caps. The rest like much of marss atmosphere was slowly lost. As well as adding a splash of blue to the red planet this new data bolsters the idea that mars may have teamed with life. Ultimately we can conclude the idea of an ocean covering 20 of the planet which shows habit habitability. Reporter it will finally tell us if there was once life on mars, one of the many mysteries that the planet still holds. Cnn, london. Fascinating. Derek van dam joins us because he covers earth but, oh, my goodness wouldnt you want to cover mars too . Look how fascinating what were learning. Yeah it is. All that research up there by nasa is so critical for everybody if we were to put you, me, any human on the face of the red earth. Maybe we came from there. Have you heard of the mars 1 expedition by any chance . The crews that are training to go to mars by 2024. Its actually occurring right now. You mean just like the regular earthlings . Yes, i interviewed one of them. Did you know the little catch 22 about that one . They dont come back. Thats right. One way journey. Im taking it you were not an applicant . I wasnt but isnt it amazing. So thousands were. 200,000, i believe. See if it happens. All right. Ill sign up. Anyway back here on boring old earth. Back here on boring earth, apparently weve got some weather to talk about, but this one is almost unearthly because we had wind gusts that were i mean phenomenal natalie. Were talking about 150, up to 200 Kilometers Per Hour all thanks to a very localized wind that occurs over the adriatic called the bora winds. It grounded a ship across split croatia on friday. Take a look at this. Overturning 18wheeler trucks. This localized wind spread into parts of northern italy as well creating this scene at one of the ski resorts in the dolamites. Those are gondolas. Several hundred people stuck in these cable cars. Narrowly escaping what was a dangerous situation. Now we had helicopters come in and rescue them. Basically what happened was this 130 kilometer per hour wind gusts knocked over one of the trees onto the kablgs that carry these gone these gondolas and people feared if they continued to run that they would ultimately run into a big problem. They saved those people everybody was safe but it was incredible to see the devastation that these winds can create. You can see the storm system responsible for this strong wind. Its just churning across parts of the adriatic. Split croatia. Wind gusts measuring 162 near the dolamites. Wind gusts of 136. You can see the strongest winds along the coast of croatia even stretching towards slow vain yeah albania and northern greece. This is a very localized wind event. Its all thanks to the mountain regions that help funnel this down to the coast creating the damaging winds. Natalie . We are hardly a boring old planet, are we . No. Were fascinating. Maybe we need to go to mars. I dont know. I like all the weather here. Im going to stay put. I think earths pretty beautiful. Thanks. Thank you. It is belt tightening time in the kremlin be. Why russias president is taking a pay cut. Well tell you about that coming up. Hands up, dont shoot. Hands up dont shoot. And those words became a rallying cry for protesters after an unarmed black teen was killed by a white policeman, but a new report challenges the pivotal movement that led to that phrase. More about that. Bulldog oooh mattress discounters 197 mattress Sale Television announcer get a serta mattress any size for just 197 each piece when you buy the complete set. The 197 mattress sale. Bulldog oh boy Television Announcer . Is ending soon. Mattress discounters welcome back to cnn live coverage. Im natalie allen. Here are our top stories. Isis has again destroyed Cultural Treasures. Treasures, this time bulldozing the ancient assyrian city of nimrud in iraq. All of this youre seeing could be gone. This comes weeks after this happened. Isis militants destroying artifacts in the mosul museum. Two suspects are in custody after a deadly shooting in mali. It happened in the capitol at a nightclub popular with westerners. At least five people were killed including someone working with the e. U. Delegation to mali. Brazils top court will investigate dozens of politicians in connection with a multibillion dollar corruption scandal. The scam may have funneled money from staterun oil company to political parties. The heads of both chambers of congress are among the ones under investigation. 50 years ago today hundreds of africanamerican civil rights marchers were beaten by police in selma, alabama, in what is now known as bloody sunday. They were demanding the right to vote when they were attacked. More than 100 members of the u. S. Congress and president obama will be in selma for the anniversary and well be there, too. The u. S. Justice Department Says it found rampant racism in ferguson missouris criminal and Justice System. Two Police Officers have resigned after racist emails were uncovered which was ordered after the deadly shooting of a black unarmed teenager by a white policeman. It systematically was biased against africanamericans in that city who were stopped, harassed mistreated abused called names, fined. It was an oppressive and abusive situation. The report does challenge one charge protesters made against the officer in the shooting. Hands up dont shoot. Hands up dont shoot. Hands up. Dont shoot. Hands up. Dont shoot. That the rallying cry there that became so popular around the country, many said Michael Brown had his hands up and was surrendering but the report says otherwise. Heres more now from sarah side ner. Reporter what really happened the final moments of Michael Browns life . The Justice Department investigation makes it clear. The evidence does not support the mantra still being used by some protesters. Dont shoot. Hands up. Dont shoot. Reporter instead, the department of justice found that is quote, inconsistent with the physical and forensic evidence and in some cases witnesses have acknowledged their initial accounts were untrue or witness accounts were not credible including the witness closest to brown when it happened. Browns friend dorian johnson, whose words helped spark the mantra. His weapon was already drawn and he shot again. Once my friend felt that shot he put his hands on the earth and started to get down but the officer still approached with the weapon drawn and he fired several more shots. Attorney general eric holder supported the investigators findings. I recognize that the findings in our report may leave some to wonder how the departments findings can differ so sharply from some of the initial widely reported accounts of what transpired. Americas Justice System has always rested on its ability to deliver impartial results in precisely these types of difficult circumstances. Reporter despite the evidence laid out by the department of justice that Michael Browns hands were not up when officer wilson shot and killed him, the hands up dont shoot movement lives. We know for a fact that hes dead whether his hands were up or not, hes not here and he didnt have a weapon. Reporter but the argument is that if he wasnt surrendering then theres a justification, with which is what the doj and grand jury found. To me thats a repetitive tactic for black males when dealing with the police. You can root back to slavery with that tactic where you kind of you have to find a way to villainize the victim. Reporter but an attorney for Michael Browns family points to witnesses in that same doj report who say browns hands were up briefly. Theres a difference between hands over your head and hands up. Thats one clear distinction weve seen when weve reviewed the report. Reporter the head of the st. Louis police Department Says this is an example of why the community and police cant see eye to eye. The gulf of distress is as wide as its ever been. Its not completely surprising. You know its become so engrained in these protests and in the minds of people who believe that something happened on august 9th that didnt. Hands up dont shoot. Reporter just today a group of Ferguson Protesters traveling to selma still chanting the same mantra. But we did notice one difference this time their signs read, we cant stop now. Sarah sidner cnn, ferguson missouri. It is being called one of the biggest data breaches in u. S. History, and u. S. Prosecutors have now filed charges against three International Hackers accused of stealing nearly 1 billion email addresses between 2009 and 2012. The suspects from vietnam and canada allegedly used the data to spam the email addresses with product promotions netting over 2 million. Its unknown at this time which email companies were hacked. When she was u. S. Secretary of state Hillary Clinton signed a Department Memo discouraging the use of personal email accounts for official business but now shes under scrutiny for the very same thing. Clinton has handed over thousands of emails to try and prove she did nothing wrong, but as cnns Brianna Keilar reports, the con pro versy isnt going away. Reporter the firestorm over Hillary Clintons use of personal email while secretary of state dominated the state Department Briefing friday. Im not a spokesperson for her office. People may have been confused about that this week. Reporter reporters asked if clinton failed to follow the email rule she signed off on an internal Department Cable from 2011 said employees should avoid using personal email to conduct government business but state Department Spokeswoman marie harf downplayed the guidelines calling them helpful tips when youre using personal email. This is a guidance on best practices. Its certainly not regulations. Reporter a scathing email said he shouldnt use personal email while conducting personal business. Gracian said he was very surprised at the double standard. At clintons request the state department will review 55,000 pages of emails the Obama Administration instructed her to turn over. She turned over anything having to do with her work at the state department but harf conceded they are taking secretary clintons word for it when she says she is turning over whats relevant. She abided by the policy even when it touts a procedure she didnt follow. Did they receive emails from secretary clinton when she was secretary of state . That i do not know. The president has a very firm policy that emails should be kept on government systems. He believes in transparency. Reporter some political observers wonder if the controversy leaves an opening for any other potential Democratic Candidates to challenge clintons expected run for president. Former Maryland Governor Martin Omalley is traveling in the coming weeks to the early states of iowa and new hampshire. It is real. Reporter and passing on a chance to run for a senate seat that will be vacated. Theres rumors that Martin Omalley may run for the race and challenge hillary. Hillarys not going to worry. Whos going to run from being totally unknown to beating her for the presidency. How does that ever happen . Reporter Hillary Clinton will speak saturday night as part of the Clinton Global Initiative in miami, florida. Its unclear shell answer any questions about her emails. Russian president Vladimir Putin is slashing his salary by 10 amid the countrys worst economic crisis in years. Low oil prices and stiff economic sanctions imposed by the west are the few reasons for the recent collapse of the ruble and soaring inflation in russia. Putin also ordered salary cuts for all the members of his administration. The pay cut will cost putin about 14,000 a year. The south American Association uniser has pledged to help venezuela keep basic food medicine and basic Hygiene Products on the chef. They met with nicholas maduro.

The greatest show on earth will soon be without the very animal it uses to symbolize the organization. Ring link brothers circus plans to phase out the use of the elephants. It has been repeatedly criticized and sued for its use of the animals. I spoke with the president and ceo of the Humane Society who called the change an historic moment and talked about other animals circuses need to stop using. I liken this to a berlin wall moment for the Animal Protection movement. The atmospherics have changed that one of the companies that refused to change with so many protests and criticism, they have decided that its not in their economic interests to continue to showcase elephants in traveling acts. I mean really a momentous sort of decision at least symbolically and were excited at the Humane Society of the United States Humane Society international. This is a big moment for us in the movement to stop sort of needles, frivolous uses of animals. We can have circuses without victimizing animals in the process. Right. Because we know about the isolated cases of these elephants being abused but we have learned about elephants as theyre very social, err this very intelligent, very close knit families out in the wild. So this is just something it will be like caging a human who exists in a Family Structure until its time for them to go out into the big lights . Right. Its more than just the elephants being struck with a bull hook which is like a small broomstick with a sharp metal implement at the end. Seeing an animal struck and, you know, of course empathizing with what that feels like is part of it but as youre suggesting its much broader than that. Its containing the elephants for 22 hours a day shipping them in box cars on the road, not being with the family group, not being able to migrate. Not having any sort of normal social elwill heements where we are fascinated by the animals, but we humans are so curious we can figure out other ways to entertain audiences to not doing this to among the most intelligent animals in the world. The big animals that need to be the focus of our discussion now are tigers and lions. The doe mess city dated animals ponies dogs they are doe mess city dated, they can interact with us they have done so for thousands of years. Wild animals, especially top predators, the biggest predators in the world like tigers and lions, dont readily submit to a 180 pound person in a three ring act. The reason that they exhibit submissive behavior is because of fear and thats really the training techniques that go into the whole circus apparatus. What you dont see is what we must focus on in terms of our ethical responsibilities. Ringling brothers has between 40 to 50 elephants and will phase them out. Well continue to follow this and perhaps report on where these elephants get to go and live out their lives in rehab somewhere nice hopefully. Sunday is International Womens day, and as women around the world get ready to celebrate, there was an unusual protest set up by a small group of men in kabul, afghanistan. They wanted to show solidarity with the women of that country by marching through the streets wearing berkas. Reporter protesters dressed in blue birkas marched through the streets. Take a look as these protesters lifted their veils revealing theyre actually men. Theres an old saying you dont truly know someone until youve walked a mile in their shoes, or in this case their burqas. The wearing of burqa is imposed by men on women. We are here to share our solidarity and we will cover our face with a burq. Reporter about 20 afghan men put on burqas. Many carried signs. They felt like it was a prison. Many would agree during the hard line rule the taliban forced women to wear burqas in public. To some the garr meant is a symbol of oppression. Translator this move by men is a good one. They want to feel what it is to be a woman. This is a protest against women. Reporter reaction to the march was mixed. A few observers laughed and heckled the protesters. Several said supporting womens life supported them. Translator we as women object. Translator my advice to women is if they are out on the street they have to be covered. Todays protests against the burqa is a western move and women should not be deceived because islam gives women the best rights. Reporter after the march while the men removed their burqas many women across afghanistan will continue to wear the controversial covering. Cnn, atlanta. Climbers in mexico they have found the mummy phied remains of two men who went missing in 1959. A group of hikers found the frozen bodies at the top of mexicos tallest peak.
