What you know just your own life from a headquarters in doha im dating obligato also ahead china unveils its new leadership lineup for their cementing the power of president xi jinping. A new report accuses israel of the systematic abuse of young palestinians under arrest in occupied East Jerusalem. Downtown Atlanta Georgia im one of the greatest pleasure to be here today. Well show you medical wizardry in london a Virtual Reality technology puts doctors from around the world in one operating room. Hello we begin in kenya where the president ial election will go ahead on thursday despite an Eleventh Hour legal challenge so the election board says its received assurances that every voter will be protected no matter who they support earlier a last minute legal challenge to the vote failed because the Supreme Court said there werent enough judges to hear the case the opposition activists wanted the vote response saying it will be credible now it sparked protests as you can see in western kenya parts of it at least in the stronghold of the opposition candidates riaa loading go and kenyans there say theyre angry about the election they say it wont be free nor fair or the poll itself is a rerun after the Supreme Court an old president a hurrican victory in the first election in august they decided to read. Youre larrys in the vote. Think of himself as boycotting thursdays poll and asking his supporters to stay away the poll chief raise concerns about the behavior of kenyas Security Forces though heres what he said. Excessive use of force by the police is not an illusion is the reality that some people have one foot in the experience in recent times when the very people that we are expected to run. In terms of trouble taking the country. Members of the police and getting hurt innocent. Exercising their rights including the lets do this. Well farmer the miller joining us now live from the kenyan capital of nairobi so even though the Electoral Commission chairman is saying yes this vote is going to go ahead we still question the position of rye lowden guy he said that he will be boycotting it but we do expect him to speak at any talk time when is that and what can we expect him to say. Well the National Super alliance and the leader being rainer think is expected to address a crowd thats gathered in nairobi for a rally supporting the Opposition Leadership so far has has used some of the statements made by the chairman of the ib the in the previous week we had at that time said that he couldnt guarantee a credible election that statement as well as the resignation of one of the commissioners who also fled to the United States saying he didnt believe there would be a credible election this so far has been used by the opposition to to back up the stance weve seen so far where they say they wont we need election and radio to get it has withdrawn and raila odinga is yet to address the crowd of people so far leadership seems to maintain it seems to be maintaining the line that the party has drawn the coalition at least has drawn over the last few weeks but also whats important to note coming from the Electoral Commission chairperson waffler cheaper carty is that hes also said that in areas where polling material hasnt arrived or polling stations dont open on election day then the returning offices the electoral offices at these polling stations can then perspire when the. Election to a later date now this is also very confusing given that the chairperson has said elections will go ahead on thursday does this leave room then for elections not to take place in certain areas where we expected there to be opposition to the elections taking place yet thats exactly the next point is that what happens in parts of western kenya for example that are really a riot. Strongholds are people they are going to go out and vote and if they dont do those who want to vote are they even able to do that. Well in parts of the country where theres a lot of support for the opposition weve seen protesters sometimes turning violent happened over the past few weeks and including today once the Supreme Court had said that it wouldnt be hearing this petition to have the elections for spode there was of course that reaction from opposition supporters and it has been difficult for the Electoral Commission to get into some of these areas to train their staff to deliver electoral material to ensure the vote happened on thursday so there are a lot of questions around what exactly will happen and what a persona meant in those areas mean part of the constitutional guideline is that for an election to be valid elections need to take place in all two hundred ninety constituencies around the country so if that isnt the case do we see this election going back to court once again most likely from the opposition side saying that they hasnt been. The election thats taken place hasnt fulfilled the guidelines of the constitution and once again would they be legal grounds for this election to be contested in court as it was in september. Ok. Thank you for that update from nairobi i think well come back to you in a few minutes because well thanks to our viewers in fact now live to kenya. Nairobi in fact and that is the Opposition Leader raila odinga so weve been saying that we do expect him to speak and i believe theyre heroes right now and the world be speaking on where he stands on the election that is scheduled now to take place in kenya on thursday that is according to the Electoral Commission chairman who was speaking a few hours ago lets listen in. The over. The years. Ok so thats a run from it are you still with us. If i mean if you can hear me right loading guy speaking right now in nairobi as im saying weve been expecting him to to come out and and say were just just can you set the scene tell us what you know off where exactly he is and whats going on right now. Well the radio dingo had promised to make a big announcement on wednesday the day before the election we know that the the opposition the National Super lion has continually said that the hes a sham election that you need a railroad to go both participate because of the Supreme Court ruling we had in september where its had a no the election based on a what if i mean i let me just jump in there before on moments because lets actually listen to what he has to say and see if he makes a big announcement as expected lets listen in the room. He would. Write you will. Not really. Sure who it is. And you. Will. Lose. You. Who will. The. Was. The old. Cue. You know very early. In the. I am. I am. Done. The. The. I am. The the. The. I am. The only i am. The. Oh. You. Can be. The. The. The. The. The the the the. The. The the the. The. The im. Ok the the. British. Ok. So that is the kenyan Opposition Leader raul speaking in nairobi a day before the elections are due to take place in kenya and heres what he said just in the past a minute he said from today we are transforming the Nasa Coalition that is the Opposition Alliance to be a Resistance Movement so transforming it into a Resistance Movement he also did say that there is no justice for the people let there be no peace for the government if there is no justice for the people let there be no peace for the government and what hes also done is hes also urged his supporters to boycott the election that is due to take place on thursday and he said for his awesome brother to convince others not to participate in the election lets cross over to nairobi as well bring in miller you were listening in to all of this family the lets just stop at the at the point that he made just a moment ago where he said the Opposition Alliance is now transforming into a Resistance Movement what are we to make of that statement. Well at this point is the National Super alliance has a coalition of came together not long before the august election has used illegal means has used the previous election to attain power in kenya and it does point hes talking about electoral justice just based on the viewpoint of the alliance that the Electoral Commission cant be trusted isnt credible and wouldnt hold free and say election theres also suspicion and belief from some quarters that they isnt the independent in the condition that they should be in fact Political Party the Electoral Commission chairperson had said that theres a split within that body and looking at these comments from raila odinga he says the importance here is looking for electoral justice theyre looking for reform within the Electoral Commission to make the necessary changes to have elections that they find credible so im surprisingly realizing the has again of his supporters to stay away from the polls but interesting enough he said stay at home previously had wanted them to protest to have a large demonstration on election day and it looks nice to be taking a step back in terms of these massive demonstrations that were expected so they are embracing this role of Resistance Movement it would seem in terms of making electoral changes especially after an Amendment Law that was expect to be brought into force that would then change the way elections are held and also the role of the judiciary in terms of intervening if theres an election that is disputed so it looks as if Going Forward the opposition is dealing with an electoral system its not happy where rather than taking its fight to the street ok fine i will leave it there thank you for that from nairobi. Now well bring you up to speed with other news an iraqi forces are launching an offensive to recapture the last part of the countrys territory still in hand theyve been dropping leaflets warning civilians of the imminent assault eisel has suffered two major defeats in iraq in recent months after fierce fighting in mosul and how we the group holds territory in the west near the border with syria meanwhile the Kurdish Regional government in iraq has suggested freezing the results of its a session a referendum which triggered a confrontation with the Central Government the kurds say theyre ready for talks with baghdad and they want to ceasefire Kurdish Peshmerga forces have been fighting Government Troops near a key oil pipeline Stephanie Decker has more from the iraqi turkey border its coming down to the detail of the language but important language the k r g kurdistan Regional Government offering to freeze the results of that controversial referendum calling for an immediate cease fire and dialogue between baghdad and erbil now baghdad has made it very clear that there will be no dialogue until the results of that referendum are meaning making it void its a complicated situation it all has to do with disputed territories land issues who controls what that stretches back years and years and years now one man who have been speaking to his family owns this land says that nothing none of this can be resolved through military means. Those debility have been a good we want happiness we want brotherhood theres been enough killing among us war solves nothing this needs to be resolved through dialogue and killings need to stop all of the killings if kurdish turkish arabs it doesnt matter everyone just needs to be happy these are challenging times for the kurds of Northern Iraq anyone you speak to it will tell you that it would completely unexpected whats happened over the last week or so the iraqi forces together with shia militia taking areas of territory that had previously been held by the current disputed territory of course but certainly its just one of the challenges this region also faces huge Economic Issues mounting debt at the moment and i think more specifically when it comes to the International Community people here will tell you whether its civilians whether its special matter whether its politicians that they feel abandoned by the International Community that they were embraced when they were fighting iceland now they feel that theyve been completely left in. The turkish president resupply burdwan has met iraqs Prime Minister to discuss the recent kurdish referendum earlier the autonomous region offered to freeze the result of september secession vote thats an order to open a dialogue with baghdad. And Prime Minister of the rejected the referendum results calling its a legitimate. Jittering our meeting we did jack to the unilateral measure taken by the cards with regards to the referendum we regret such a measure we share the same views on the measure from the outset we agreed iraqs territorial integrity must be maintained and we are still keen on that this is why we cannot accept this referendum or the union lateral measure taken by the kurds a new report accusing israel of systematically abusing young palestinians arrested in occupied East Jerusalem it says teens are detained in the middle of the night accused of throwing stones at soldiers and questioned without a lawyer present paul charger john reports. Five decades of Israeli Occupation and many scenes remain the same young palestinians throw stones at Israeli Soldiers who respond with tear gas but now a report from Human Rights Organization beats salaam and how mckidd says israel is ignoring special laws to protect the rights of minors and teenagers when they are detained after a protest that this is an age in which people. Are more vulnerable and can actually be scarred for life and traumatized for life through such experiences and so you want to have special protections in place. The reports authors say the Justice System in israel lacks any understanding of due process when handling palestinian teens specifically in occupied East Jerusalem and the west bank we have a system in which on one side Police Officers prosecutors judges the jails will all and always be israeli and in this case you have you know that a student teenagers who are always on the receiving end of this of this reality sixty teenagers suspected of stone throwing were interviewed for the report some were arrested in the middle of the night which is forbidden under israeli law seventy percent of the boys arrested did not know they had the right to remain silent a third of the boys did not speak to a lawyer they said they feared being harmed and were pressured to sign involuntary and sometimes false confessions in ninety five percent of the cases the boys were questioned without a parent or relative being present most were threatened and interrogated and could be held in harsh conditions in a cell for days or weeks human Rights Groups dont see israel changing its abuse of palestinian teens any time soon sad and difficult conclusion is that we are unlikely to see any meaning. Changes. In the documentation. Is really police say the report is inaccurate and misleading.
