Hundreds more refugees are amassing at myanmars border with bangladesh some have told aljazeera that they have been warned another military crackdown on Myanmars Rakhine state is imminent meanwhile the u. N. Secretary general tanya terry says the crisis is the worlds fastest developing refugee emergency added a magic editor james based reports. They died at sea men women and children fleeing bloodshed. And the torching of homes in myanmar they made it onto a boat taking them across the water to bangladesh only for the vessel to sync up this tragedy the Un Security Council was told a result of a massive flow of people over half a million in about a month the situation a spirit world into the worlds fastest developing refugee emergency and the humanitarian and human rights nightmare the trumpet ministrations policy towards me and maher change sharply jury in this meeting with u. S. Ambassador nikki haley demanding the prosecution of members of the meon mom military and the suspension of all arms sales to the country we cannot be afraid to call the actions of the burmese authorities what they appear to be a brutal sustained campaign to cleanse the country of an ethnic minority having heard those scathing comments as National Security adviser gave his response there is no ethnic cleansing and no genocide in. And nick cleansing and genocide are serious charges and they should not be used lately human Rights Groups have been critical of the Security Council they say slow response has failed dismally to keep up with the scale and speed of this crisis both in terms of the ongoing human rights abuses and the resulting humanitarian emergency this meeting and in particular ambassador haleys comments increase the pressure on me on mars but the council remains divided with some notably china suggesting quiet diplomacy may be the best way forward james plays out jazeera of the United Nations and here now is aljazeera is tanveer charge way where the more from bangladesh is cox is bizarre. First of all let me give you in context you can see the boat that was wrecked you know last night around five pm actually in the evening on my right side theres still rescue operation going on we know for sure at least twenty bodies were recovered most of them are women and children now we spoke to some of the survivor of this boat wreckage we asked them that what is going on on the other side we also obtained their mobile for dates through our sources and me on my side showing stranded refugees stuck in an island trying to cross into bangladesh and the me and my refugees that we were interviewing told us that a lot of the people are stranded and trying to come across bangladesh but that instead that Border Guards are preventing them we heard this from u. S. Human rights watch and i. O. M. That saying that Border Guards and coast guards by preventing the refugees during daytime to come into bangladesh now one reason could be is a clear danger of you know a boat carrying this passenger going into the intercoastal waterway in the bay of bengal that which is very stormy during yesterday was very stormy the so the clear danger to people friending by boat into the intercoastal waterway and the strange air of boat. Sinking in these waterways that could be one particular reason but what theyre writing to refugees are telling us they were in the Central Region and people from there not this corroborates what antonia good care to say on the u. N. Last night that people from the not that telling in the Central Region that get away from there the armys going to crack down very still and even that but this friendly villagers told them that youre going to the army is going to crack down there and this is the big rush again of range of refugees from central zone coming into bangladesh.

And hes not happy that myanmars government uses the term bengali extremist when it talks about the word hinge of fighters. We are hindu bengali and some of our people were killed in rakhine we are people of the same race i am worried for the future living in the caribbean because their words between like are coming and muslim communities.

The aljazeera madrid. The head of the worlds Nuclear Watchdog has raised the alarm over the fast pace of north Koreas Nuclear Weapons Program earlier this month pyongyang said it had tested a Hydrogen Bomb and this follows a series of Ballistic Missile launches as well from seoul kathy novak reports. The head of the eye has been in seoul for a three day visit meeting with south koreas foreign minister and discussing the north Korean Nuclear issue they have both expressed grave concern about the sixth and most powerful nuclear test which north korea claims was a Hydrogen Bomb now the i. A. E. A. Hasnt had direct access to north Koreas Nuclear facilities since its inspectors were kicked out of the country back in two thousand and nine but you know says that the most recent test shows that north korea is making significant progress with its Nuclear Program we do not have the capacity to determine if it is up. But it is odious to me that eld is much bigger than the previous one it means that. North korea made very rapid progress. Combined with a lot of other elements this is the new threat and this is the global threat north koreas foreign minister recently raised concerns about the possibility of the country conducting an Atmospheric Nuclear test when he hinted that it may be considering detonating a Hydrogen Bomb in the pacific and the south korean government remains on high alert for the possibility of another Missile Launch or nuclear test perhaps to coincide with key dates next month on october the tenth in north korea Marks Foundation day and on october the eighteenth china opens its communist Party Congress and in the past north korea has upstaged a major events in china with provocative acts meanwhile beijing says any north Korean Companies operating in china will have to shut down by january the u.

A. E. For undermining stability in the region while we open our borders. To our brothers and cutter what we would have done exactly the same United Arab Emirates being threatened were not happy with that because we believe that if you need to resort to through peaceful means we dont know but to try to bully others really. Need to really go around the negotiating table not. To cambodia now where farmers say sugar barons are forcing them from their land that Government Group is examining accusations of exploitation rob mcbride has a story from Cole Kong Mia combo dias. The company and coast. This was the route saying lim would take to her fields every day life back then with three hectares to farm was good for her and her family then one day this happened but blocking her way she says her land had been grabbed by a powerful sugarcane fama. For years she and her family have survived on two dollars a day making charcoal. You can see how broken down my house. And i havent been able to send the children to school its ten years weve been like this its so so difficult. At least they kept their homes people told us a neighboring village was moved completely at gunpoint. Decades of civil war and the mass relocations around the countryside by the camero i mean there are numerous unresolved land issues the cambodian government started making large scale land concessions with the stated aim of helping development in rural areas but in a country afflicted by corruption its alleged theres been wide scale abuse by tycoons using their connections with the ruling party to get concessions or simply grabbing land by force according to local n. G. O. S this is a long overdue attempt by the government to right previous wrongs. And they are for it is understand about human rights they would study about the pact on the people in making their land concessions and they would leave villages land alone. Sudden government interest it seems could be political with an election next year the ruling party nearly lost the last election and its popularity in the countryside has been falling i think this is a very strong signal to the only party that they must looking for a way to deal with the. Reputation of the in my mind for the. Fears are growing about how fair that election will be but these people are hoping the governments need to win their votes will win them some longer waits it justice.
