The muslims say theyve been subjected to a brutal crackdown by mean mars military more than six hundred thousand people have fled what the u. S. Called ethnic cleansing since august another two thousand have just crossed the border into bangladesh florence levy joins us live now from yangon florence and she will be visiting Rakhine State for the first time what more can you tell us. Thats right this is her first trip to recall in state since she took office in two thousand and sixteen now and weve spoken to the spokesman for the government spokesman and he said shes accompanied by two other ministers the minister for home affairs as well as the minister from the state Counselors Office its a day trip shes visiting shes going to be visiting more indoor township the place thats been worst hit by the military crackdown which the u. N. Has termed a textbook example of ethnic cleansing now we dont really know yet much more details about this visit other sources tell us that she is going to be visiting a place called home pure let way this is a village where there was a refugee camp for internally displaced brokaw and villages as well as hindu villages but not muslim villages we dont yet know whether shes going to be visiting and he moves live villages or whether shell be visiting places that have been burned down by a range of villagers saying theyve been burned out by young mom military or kind which is mobs now of the state spokesman for Rakhine State told us that her visit will prove and show that there is stability in the state and certainly that is the message that the myanmar government has been trying to push in recent days they had an economic they had a meeting of business men and local politicians in situ a trying to encourage investment in recovering state saying that because stability has been regained in the area it is now time to think about Economic Development although what were hearing on the ground is something that is extremely different villages tell us that they are still planning to leave the country many are already making their way to the border area with by saying they no longer feel its safe to live in the country theyve watched properties being looted right in front of their eyes for hours meanwhile thousands of russian german trapped on the border between me and mon bangladesh in no mans land whats the latest on the ground them. Thats right now a report say that some of them that theyre waiting for permission by Bangladeshi Border guards for them to enter the country now i have to stress that this is not uncommon no on usual this is happened before but whether she authorities have the right to vet people before they allow them to enter the country and of course this will make life a lot more difficult than for the real hinge of villagers many of whom would have tried for several days with very little food and water just to get to the border area and this also serves to highlight and underscore just how difficult conditions must be for people in for a village is still in northern rakhine many of them would have heard from their friends and relatives whove made it into bangladesh about how difficult conditions are in the camps and they would have known about the difficult journeys they would have to undertake tracking for days or waiting by the beach for boats to bring them across yet many are still making that journey and what weve been hearing from villagers is that. They see their homes are still being burned now are they still being threatened the this time not by and Myanmar Military but by rakhine but its not so much so that theyve made the difficult decision that theyre going to leave their homes and their country behind to start a new life florence thank you of the u. S.

N. Says the situation on the island remains alarming shopper chancy reports from washington d. C. Six weeks to the day after Hurricane Maria devastated puerto rico the mayor of san juan was scheduled to be giving testimony at a congressional hearing on the u. S. Governments response not holding this press conference in a corridor on capitol hill thank you very much but the hearing was scrapped by republicans once they heard that a democratic congressman had invited the outspoken man to testify why do you think the republicans canceled todays hearings. I dont know the fact is that they did not the fact is that with that they tried to silence the voices. And the voices that i represent and they did not accomplish i think they know its very difficult. Have a dialogue look good. Actions look really bad so they know they havent done. Governor rick how to resale received a very different reception in washington d. C. He was invited to the white house where he thanked donald trump for his leadership the president appeared satisfied. How would you grade the white house. I too was a temp however it was clear that when the president. Wouldnt have agreed in her testimony to congress President Trump again lives in a reality that is just of his own doing well i was. Water with human excrement and sleeping in a cart. In san juan he was playing in mara lago so when youre live from that perspective its not that you dont get it said you dont want to get the congressman who invited mccreadys is disappointed. In the witness could tell the story like someone. Involved in it so. We offer. But should we draw any conclusions from the fact that when they heard about the invitation they cancel the entire hearing well if they heard about it on friday. And also. Leads me to believe they didnt want to hear. But both the congressman and the mayor are adamant that this is not over. Washington also to come here not just taking a stand for women.

Countries that brazil has assembled that is really going to say yes we absolutely commit to elimination and the summit is talking about the importance of including Civil Society why is inclusion of Civil Society so important awareness is critical we have a huge role to play in that and some countries its been absolutely bangladesh is a standout example theyve done fantastic work and part of no head which is this elimination movement a grassroots elimination movement that we as a Civil Society have started is a way of galvanizing awareness and action so one of the greatest challenges is that many people simply dont know theyre suffering from the disease until some months into it that is something that people here are keen to address hoping to share their experiences and their knowledge hoping that if they can hepatitis around the world that knowledge can be used in the fight against other Global Diseases thousands of people have gathered in argentina demanding answers over the death of the activist Santiago Maldonado he went missing in august in a confrontation between police and indigenous.

The senior democrat on the committee though argued that some of the fake facebook posts clearly had political intent this one apparently intended to turn christian voters against hillary clinton. What was not contested was the deeply divisive nature of the social media posts which the companys lawyers agreed with clearly aimed at widening fault lines within us society over sensitive social issues ads that argued opposing positions over gun control for example which served to inflame an already contentious debate and a fake posting by a nonexistent muslim Group Advertising a meeting at the same time in place as one called by another fake creation that was purportedly anti islamic the intent it would seem to foment violence last month person trump called russian purchase facebook ads a hoax ive looked at those russian sponsored facebook ads i certainly hope you had a chance to review them are they in fact a hoax.
