Evidence of Russian Troops on ukrainian soil, dismissing satellite images as fabrications. Russian president Vladimir Putin continues to up the rhetoric in his war of words with kiev, saying with the people of Eastern Ukraine experienced is similar to what happened under the nazis in the region during world war ii. President putin visited a new camp you can north of moscow. He did not mince words while talking about ukraine. He compared the Ukrainian Armys operations against rebel held cities with the nazi siege of leningrad during world war ii. He said separatists were simply defending civilians under attack. The part of the country that did not agree with the change in government is being repressed with harsh military force, aircraft, artillery, shelling and tanks. Small towns and big cities have been besieged by the Ukrainian Army. It has been shelling residential areas with the goal of destroying infrastructure. Putin did not comment on satellite imagery nato says proves Russian Troops are active in ukraine. In his comments, he called for the opening of a humanitarian corridor for ukrainian soldiers trapped in the southeast, a request that through this response from separatists in donetsk. With all respect to Vladimir Putin, we are ready to provide humanitarian corridors to the Ukrainian Army divisions surrounded in these villages, but only if they hand over heavy weapons and ammunition. But western nations are convinced russia is supplying more than just moral support to the separatists. Despite moscows hollow den ials, it is now clear Russian Troops and equipment have illegally cross the border into eastern and southEastern Ukraine. President putin is clearly not impressed. He professes to be baffled by western reluctance to criticize ukrainian leadership in kiev. Our correspondent in kiev. We hear the war of words is heating up, and now we are going towards an eu summit this weekend. What is the level of hope in kiev that the eu is about to increase sanctions on russia . To be frank, looks like ukraines only hope is for the eu and western partners. For example, yesterday after the meeting of the Ukrainian Defense counsel, the president said ukraine is able to fight Russian Troops on its own, it j ust needs more advanced weapons and intelligence technologies. It looks like during the summit ukraine will try to achievetwo goals. First, it will try to get military support, even in the form of weapons or technology. Secondly, it will try to force eu countries to apply more pressure on russia to back off. In what form this pressure will be applied, this is to be seen. Ahead of this eu summit, we are hearing harsher language coming from europe. An example, the polish foreign minister today called the situation in ukraine a war. What is the reaction in kiev . For many, for most ukrainians, war has been taking place in the east for many months now. When we were talking to people on the street, today say they say they welcome harsh words from the western leaders. But at the same time, they say they would like to see more actions from the west than just being deeply concerned. They would like to see real actions being adopted right now, as soon as possible. Thank you very much. Tensions continue to mount across the region. A plane carrying the Russian Defense minister was initially forced to turn around in midflight after poland denied entrance into its airspace. The minister was returning to russia from slovakia, where he had been taking part in a world war ii memorial. The incident was a formality due to confusion over whether the minister was traveling by civilian or military flight. The plane was eventually allowed to fly over. Russia has reacted harshly, calling the move a gross violation. The development in ukraine has prompted eu leaders to talk about sanctions again. So. Foreign ministers are discussing sanctions at a meeting in italy. Polands foreign minister handed out surplus apples to underscore his anger at moscows decision to block polish fruit and visual imports. As the eu considers how to react to developments in ukraine, some Foreign Ministers said new sanctions and tougher action are imperative. We see as collation, conflict, and it is natural the European Union should once again very seriously discussed topic possible new measures. The conflict will not be solved in this way. But we have to make clear that russia is pursuing the wrong path. German foreign minister Frankwalter Steinmeier said a military solution was not an option, and that it was time for reason to prevail in ukraine. This only makes sense if russia plays with open cards and stopped it nebulouss presentation of the facts, as we saw this morning. Eu Foreign Ministers are expected to propose new sanctions at a weekend summit in brussels. Our correspondent is following the talks. What sanctions are the ministers talking about . Well, one option is a focus on the financial markets. To make it more competition for Russian Companies to get financing. Thats one option that was discussed and not decided, because the Foreign Ministers here did not have the chance to do so. That will be done saturday in brussels, when the heads of state will meet. The European Commission has to elaborate concrete measures. Thats it . Basically more sanctions . Is there anything else they can do . Well, one source said ot to me that unfortunately ukraine is no member of nato. That would mean the only legal option was to answer with military force. So Foreign Ministers have had to look to other options. One could be helping president poroshenko to support the situation in the rest of the country, to get the ukrainian people a perspective for the future. All this in advance of elections scheduled for october. That would mean maybe the accepting the loss of the eastern part of ukraine control by separatists. So what are you saying . Basically abandoned the east . Is that an option that would be taken seriously . Well, the problem is the western countries are stuck in a situation where they dont have measures, tools to react, so they have to think. One option is that. Because what is the alternative . Muddling through . Or helping the country to avoid that the whole of ukraine will end up in a mess . Thank you very much for that analysis. The human toll in Eastern Ukraine has been immense. An area known that hgas known peace for seven decades has now seen in conflict that has left entire areas in rubble. The United Nations has counted the killed, not including the victims of the passenger plane crash near donetsk. The United Nations announced the findings in kiev. The United Nations says an average of 36 people a day were killed in the conflict in Eastern Ukraine last month, and casualties are likely to rise further. As each side increases strength through mobilization, better organization, or the deployment of new fighters and more sophisticated weapons and support from outside, the hi gher will be the number of civilian casualties. He condemned prorussian rebels for preventing people from leaving areas hit by violence. He said that the alleged increase in foreign fighters taking part in hostilities was particularly disturbing. At the same time, they continue to commit abductions, physical and psychological torture, and other serious Human Rights Violations. There was criticism for the u. N. For fallen tear battalions packed are backed by the kiev government. There have been disturbing reports of violations committed by battalions under government control. As fighting continues, the message of the report is clear. It is the civilian population that is suffering most in this war. With fall fast approaching, concerns are growing about vital deliveries of russian natural gas to europe. Eu Energy CommissionerGuenther Oettinger discussed this with his russian counterpart. Much of the natural gas that goes to europe goes through pipelines running for ukraine. The eu receives 40 of its natural gas from russia. Open sud de france eurozone shows inflation official data for the eurozone shows inflation has fallen. A new sign that the economic recovery is unsteady. On implement remains high at 11. 5 . They were 18. 4 Million People jobless in the eurozone. The various crises around the world were just some of the factors on traders minds. People here at the efforts pocket change Frankfurt Stock Exchange kept a close eye on the escalating situation in the ukraine. That dominated the whole week. Also a major factor, surprisingly negative Economic News from germany. The Business Climate here is measured by the ifo institute, dropping for the fourth month in a row. The german consumer, for the first time in 1. 5 years, was less optimistic than the time period before. So it is surprising that the dax made a gain for the week of about 1 , based on hopes that the europeans and the bank sees the dire situation and does even more to prop up the economy and the markets. Lets look at closing numbers for you. With the dax flat today. The stoxx 50 moving more, only 0. 25 upwards. The dow is falling at this hour. The euro down against the u. S. Dollar. Brazil is in recession after gdp in latin americas largest economy contracted by more than 0. 5 in the Second Quarter of this year.

A lot more news coming your way, including disturbing reports from syria that Islamic State militants have executed hundreds of captured syrian soldiers. Back after a oneminute break. Stay with us. Welcome back, everyone. Britain has raised its Terror Threat level to severe in response to the growing power of Islamic State jihadists in syria and iraq. That is the secondhighest, meaning a domestic attack is considered highly likely. Prime minister David Cameron warns that i. S. Represents a poisonous ideology and has its sights set on western europe. The british prime ministers said he planned to introduce new legislation to make it harder for britons to travel to syria and iraq and fight along islamist militants. We are facing a terrorist organization not being hosted in a country, but actually seeking to establish and then violently expand its own terrorist state. With designs on expanding to jordan and lebanon, right up to the turkish border, we could be facing a terrorist state on the shores of the mediterranean and bordering a nato member. We cannot appease this ideology. We have to confront it at home and abroad. The announcement comes almost two weeks after the murder of u. S. Journalist james foley by a man suspected of being a british national. David cameron is due to detail plans to the house of commons on monday. Every day brings new images of the horrors under Islamic State rule. The latest video, the execution of 160 syrian soldiers, stripped and humiliated before being massacred. In broadcasting the footage, we walk a fine line between documenting events and inadvertently serving the Propaganda Machine of the jihadists. This instance, we decided to show you what a panel he happened to the man and mena and teens after an airbase fell to the fighters. Thousands are fleeing the region. Hundreds of thousands are on the move across syria and iraq. Many are struggling to live in refugee camps, such as here in northern iraq, under desperate conditions. But they are still better off here than in areas controlled by Islamic State militia. We were under siege from the Islamic State, and then Government Forces moved in. That is when airstrikes started. That is why we are here. The atrocities committed by the groups have shocked the world. These images show more than 100 bodies, allegedly captured syrian soldiers, slaughtered by i. S. The International Community is struggling to forge a response. U. S. President Barack Obama Says he does not yet know how best to fight Islamic State. Any successful strategy will also need strong regional partners. So far, im encouraged that countries in the region, countries that dont always agree on many things, increasingly recognize the primacy of the threat isil poses to all of them. Briefing the United Nations security council, the u. N. Deputy humanitarian chief expressed alarm. Grave Human Rights Violations have become the norm in syria. Parties to the conflict are oblivious of their obligations to protect civilians and abide by International Humanitarian law. As they continue to commit terrible crimes against civilians, young and old, women and men. It is not yet clear whether such appeals will influence the security council, which has been unable to agree on a syria strategy since the conflict began. In syria, 44 u. N. Peacekeepers remain in captivity at a after being abducted by militants in the Golan Heights. The soldiers were from fiji. More than 70 philippine soldiers are stuck in a base nearby, trapped by fighting between the syrian army and rebel forces. Peacekeepers have been monitoring the Golan Heights since a 1974 truce between syria and israel. Another truce in the area, this one between israel and hamas militants in gaza, is holding. The conflict in recent weeks claimed around 2200 lives, mostly palestinian civilians. In the meantime, some of the smaller demands of hamas are coming into effect. Our correspondent accompanied fischer fishermen as they went back to work. After a break of seven weeks, hes pulling in his nets aga in. Since the ceasefire, gazas fishermen have been allowed up to six not miles off of the coast. But he and many fellow fishermen are ethical. Is good, it is good, but also not good. We want the sea to be opened up, so we can move freely. But it isnt. Despite what we have been through. We wanted the right to fish up to 12 miles out. That is what the resistance and our government were demanding. Until recently, the fishing zone was just three nautical miles. The area was completely overfished, pushing fish prices too high for most gazans. The catch includes crab, which will fetch around one euro epr per kilo. Not bad, but they can still barely make ends meet. Fuel is expensive, and the fishermen are far from satisfied. Without a ceasefire would bring a better solution. Six miles is not enough. The israelis hardly gave ground. We have six miles in 2012. We hardly gained anything. The creation of a proper port in gaza was a key demand, but talks on that have been held until next month. Signs of normality are returning, but many here have lost everything. After so many weeks of conflict, so much death and destruction, people are picking up the pieces and gaza. People wonder when the cleanup effort will start, and how they will be able to rebuild their homes. In the meantime, theyre putting up signs with their telephone numbers and names to show where they used to live before the war. He says he is lucky he still has a roof over his head, even if his home no longer has any walls. He hopes that after the war israel will finally allow Building Materials into gaza for the first time in seven years. What we need is real change, but we do not see it. We are eating off plastic plates because we dont have any crockery left. We cant bake our own bread anymore. Life is difficult because we dont have the most basic things anymore. There are high hopes in gaza that the ceasefire will hold. But it will take much more than that for life in the territory to become anything approaching normal. To another battered city, but one that has been hit hard by capitalism. Talking about detroit in the united states. When the automakers ditched motor city, they left behind a postapocalyptic landscape of abandoned skyscrapers and rundown factories. But could manufacturing rise from the ashes like a phoenix . Some say it could, but in a different form. This is what a bankrupt city looks like. There is poverty and high unemployment. 4 5 of detroits remaining residents are africanamerican. They have been the hardest hit in the citys slow fall from grace. But there is another side. Private investors have pumped 10 billion into the city in the past five years. Including Companies Like detroit venture partners, which provides capital for local startups. Detroit is a great place to start a company. It has a lower cost of capital, a lower cost of doing business. Engineers are affordable. There is enormous talent, with the universities in the area. We are investing in companies to keep them here in the state of michigan. You dont have to move to california or new york to start a great company. They see themselves as part of detroits reemergence. Any newcomers are tech firms. With his 12person team he developed an app that helps users manage their schedules. It has been downloaded more than 250,000 times. It is a detroitbased startup that is reinventing the calendar, merging your existing calendar with other calendars you care about based on your likes and interests. Shinola is another of detroits success stories. Where General Motors used to make cars, 260 employees now produce luxury goods. They are especially proud of their watches. They sell for up to 100 1100, and sales are through the roof. Detroit has an amazing history of manufacturing. It is in the blood here. People are used to assembly, assembling product. It was a natural fit for us to come here and build this factory. In addition to watches, shinola manufactures bicycles. The parts come from seven different states, but they are assembled right here in detroit. Firms like shinola still have not turned a profit, but their message is clear. The future looks bright. After tumbling so low, things can only get better for detroit, with or without the citys traditional out of industry. Briefly, other news.
