Behavior had been observed by these two people in stuttgart and that is how this raised this alarm was raised in addition there was information coming from morocco from the secret service of morocco which appears to have followed internet conversations between people in germany and elsewhere who have been talking about the possibility of some sort of islamist attack around christmas time in the region between germany and france so its a serious alert at the moment but we dont know really how far this is going to go and no ones we have any idea you were reporting that there was suspicious activity maybe they were trying to scout the premises do we know exactly what it was that they were doing that got the attention of the police well they were caught on video at stuttgart airport taking photographs of the building from the outside and they were also said to have been hanging around the security checkpoints inside the building without you know making any attempt actually to board an airplane or Something Like that police try to apprehend them at the time but did not manage to get there in time one has to presume.

With the light against the terrorism is not finished or theres been a lot of progress in syria with the coalition but despite continues to your. Facing criticism from many sides trump defended his decision on twitter. Does the usa want to be the policeman of the middle east he wrote getting nothing but spending precious lives and trillions of dollars protecting others who in almost all cases do not appreciate what were doing do we want to be there forever time for others to finally fight.

Is seeking to take back control in a country by fighting against the opposition and i. A. S. The u. S. Pullout is likely to strengthen in syrias future and president Vladimir Putin was quick to welcome trumps announcement. Is the presence of u. S. Troops necessary there no its not let us not forget that the presence of u. S. Troops in syria isnt legitimate that it has no u. N. Security Council Resolution to rely on. The timeline for the withdrawal is not yet clear some officials have said it could be completed within sixty to one hundred days which means scenes like this could soon be a thing of the past in syria. Or russia Vladimir Putin has used an end of the Year Press Conference to rail that western sanctions he also said that allegations about moscows covert operations such as the poisoning of a father and daughter in the u. K. Were made up now it was a typically strident performance designed to showcase the russian leaders strong man image. Its build like couple.

A lot to me a putin and marriage from the wings the ripple of applause belied any notion that this would be bruising the session began with something off roy greenslade. So there it is lets begin and we will give priority to the kremlin journalists. We should always begin with those who are close to us quips the president. With close to four hours of questions this is more a test of in june or in the mental agility despite Nuclear Threats and wars are home and abroad question after question dealt with the country struggling economy even state broadcasters piled on him. The russian economy is in stagnation its going round in circles. But also we cant provide strong Economic Growth unless we change the structure of the economy thats what were doing with National Projects we want to put it ahead of Everything Else we want to innovate her economy and see greater rates of Economic Growth and more opportunities for development. Every temperately its an annual short piece meant to project strength and prosperity but with rising poverty in russia the ostentation touches were fewer this year and the economic strife is hard. His popularity among the people has plummeted. Whatever the signs here may suggest. Well hungarys president has signed into law unpopular new rules that allow employers to increase workers over time thats despite a week of protests in the capital budapest targeting Prime Minister viktor orban and war protesters call his slave law our correspondent charge traveled to budapest to find out exactly why demonstrators have been brazing braving freezing temperatures to take their message to the streets protester simply the past usually starts here at the hunky parliament this afternoon i meet a couple of students preparing for an anti or bond demonstration. Hungary has experienced a wave of protests in recent days and normally of course young people like gossip are like if you come here to the course with square to say elie good voigt which means its enough what exactly is enough well there are certain amount of things that we have experienced the the destruction of health care the destruction of education or the slave law which is going to make people work overtime for in the hours before the whole society is collapsing on us its suffocating us on all levels unlike past antigovernment protests recent ones have not ended in the past they have shifted to the countryside and we are in need of in the north east one of the poorest regions of hungary and the stronghold of feet as the governing party. I want to ask people about the new labor law that has triggered the protests it allows companies to ask their employees to work four hundred hours overtime every year but snow wants to talk on camera afraid they may lose their jobs i meet a girl who may not be afraid but hes angry his job is to drive five hundred kilometers to hungary every night for a shipping company. To get his wife start work every night at eight oclock and have to sign that i finished at four thirty in the morning that theyre making is committed to me and. The fact he says he works twelve to fourteen hours every night for four hundred euros a month needs to shouldnt have to the government says there are other options thats not true and there arent many jobs and thats why youre forced to accept working overtime to send out on appeal so that the tillis concerned that employees will be exploited even more and hes taking his anger onto the streets hundreds of others have come to the city center to protest at what they call a sleigh from a brutal. It will be here we can have the wall that represents the system of. Organizing different opposition parties cool free peaceful protests they dont want clashes with the police theyre chanting orban alex we dont want your slave lol this crowd here is very energized all of a sudden the very much for the magic opposition the opposition parties are united against orban and they want to keep this momentum alive. Its freezing way below zero the protesters here are determined to fight in the streets beyond christmas the big question is how many people who support this new wave a resistance. Or even charge reporting there from budapest youre watching news still to come another chinese artist ends up behind bars we look at the uncomfortable truths on show in luke longs work that made him a target for beijing. But first drones flying near Londons Gatwick airport have grounded flights and caused travel chaos a pair of the Remote Control devices responded near doubt work on wednesday night prompting the airport to cancel all Flights Police say they have ruled out terrorism but the british army has now been called in to help deal with the situation thousands of people are stuck as they trying to reach loved ones for christmas. The mystery drone attack could hardly have come at the worst time with hundreds of planes grounded or being rerouted tens of thousands of passengers are now facing major disruption at one of the u. K. s busiest airports were meeting family and it might to set a date. But overall maybe its so you dont even need to say syria you know the best the best thoughts christmas any company leave this kid because she seems to be there any case we could possibly find any information they can get several hours. Helplessness for people on the ground and increasing frustration for officials trying to catch those operating the drones in the air on oclock last night a drone seen by two different members of staff and since then the drone is a. Hole through the noise to the close now there is a drone on the field as we speak and the police twenty police units are looking to bring that picture to justice under british law its illegal to fly a drone within one kilometer of an airport or airfield boundary or above an altitude of one hundred twenty meters which increases the risk of a collision with a manned aircraft Sussex Police say theres no indication of terrorist involvement but theyve called this a deliberate act to cause disruption at gatwick airport. The train operators are acting illegally and there is a punishment of up to five years in prison for endangering. Which so many people stranded at gatwick and many more are still arriving even once the drones are stopped its expected to take days before things can return to normal. Well im joined now by. The president of the british air Traffic Control. I want to ask you about the army being called in to help deal with this situation sounds very serious hell serious is it.

By those in both especially when it really does the supply let them think of a money and theyd ration of this in thing they need. If that morsi is funded by the ek. You know people looking at this story are asking how is it possible for two drones to shut down airports weve heard some viewers today saying that are theyre asking you know arent drones just like birds i mean how much of a threat can a drone be. A lot of research has been done and they dont think he found the precisely the right said the middle class and the drone on they then. Area bought a thirties that is so. Much more serious than that of a burst from leeds explains why they dont break over on that at the mouth of a Sydney Airport and what did what did what do you do with the possibility that what were seeing at gatwick maybe could be a trial balloon by people who would want to cause even more travel chaos i mean in theory if you could bring down if you can put one airport bring it to a standstill would just to draw means you would just need a small fleet of drones to bring an entire countrys airspace to a standstill what you. Well first the measures we have on the one side with the relations dont know us they dont the other is them for me by the way so a report in the u. K. Led on with. One thing only they dont there ever boundary of the four hundred feet of the lay zeta being extended because of this i dont know this on the other side because youre always going to find a noble use as we need the method of enforcing those regulations be fancying dont raise ration dont do the action and so forth so out of the attention of the race is there that is there a net is just for for us or through out safely implement the method of and from how. It certainly seems as if there is room for action or maybe perhaps an improvement. Or president of the British Guild of yr Traffic Control officers we appreciate your time tonight thank you oh i get.
