A major yemeni port thats held by hootie rebels has received its first food delivery three weeks after the Saudi Led Coalition imposed a total blockade on land and sea the ship in her data is carrying more than five thousand tons of flour and has been allowed in after the coalition bowed to pressure from the un to ease the blockade but the embargo has already worsened yemen spiraling humanitarian crisis which the u. N. Childrens agency is trying to stop by sending in one point nine million doses of vaccines you deserve says yemens conflict has become a war on children and that nearly every child there is in dire need of humanitarian assistance he just shot reports. The saudis have promised to lift the blockade of the yemen port of her died four days ago but it was only on sunday that the first desperately needed Food Supplies were unloaded. And now the ship here is the port of her they entered carrying flour and relief materials swaying five thousand five hundred ton is this is not enough for the and many people needs but we hope this is a good sign to open the port of her data and lift the siege in all the many provinces. Unicef says a child dies every ten minutes from preventable diseases that would equate to more than five hundred children dead in those last four days alone five thousand tons of flowers unloaded on saturday but its just a trickle too little and far far too late for the most vulnerable today it is fair to say that yemen is one of the worst places on earth to be a child more than eleven million. Yemeni children are to be in acute need of humanitarian assistance thats almost every single yemeni boy and girl unicef says the war in yemen is sadly a war on children close to five thousand children have been killed or seriously injured in the last two and a half years and it welcomes the opening of the airport at santa since the Saudi Led Coalition began fighting the who tees in two thousand and fifteen the countrys basic infrastructure no longer exists. The blockade began on november sixth after hutu rebels fired a Ballistic Missile into saudi arabia so you know she said the blockade was imposed to stop weapons being smuggled into yemen but the un is warning that commercial imports of food and fuel must also resume the World Food Program says continuing to choke off those supplies could have a disastrous effect on fourteen Million People living in the remote regions of northern yemen completely unable to cope for themselves peter shop al jazeera. A strong warning there from unicef. Now joins us live with the latest via skype from amman thanks very much for joining us on aljazeera so one delivery has got through of provisions. Because there are provisions that havent been donated but what about the other various cargo ships trying to get in there are various reports of whether clearance not being granted yet what can you tell us the position. Well the position is very clear around we are extremely happy that yesterday one point nine million vaccines got in some iraq war though we are very happy that with a thoughtful program was able to deliver matched me with supply but these two were shipments sort of the last couple of days are on me and brought in a notion i would call eight humanitarian catastrophe that is really much more needed in the coming days to serve the most Vulnerable People in yemen and particularly the most Vulnerable Children as you mentioned a child is dying in yemen every ten minutes from preventable diseases we have close to two million children what acute malnourished four hundred thousand of them are suffering from a life threatening severe acute malnutrition so were just critical for humanitarian agencies like unicef and the f. B. I. And others to be able to supply the country what is needed for people to survive for people to thrive so what we have been able to do over the last couple of the couple of days is and should only be the beginning and as you say a drop in the ocean what would you say to the International Community who just do not seem to be pushing this hard enough that doesnt seem to be the outcry that is causing people to say we have to get these medicines and this food into yemen as fast as possible. Well her or call to the International Community or all to all who are leasing gaged in yemen is a very simple call disc first and foremost is of course the war on children the war in general to start and not tomorrow or the war needs to stop now children who are innocent to what is happening have been being a brutal client price today in yemen and continue doing so all this war from a childrens perspective is ng is senseless it is a war however children being in incredible price war in the absence of a political settlement and the end of the war we ask the parties in yemen we ask anyone with a heart for yemeni children to ensure that the that the humanitarian supplies can continue logging into yemen that all ports are all going to ensure that medical supplies Education Supplies supplies to be sure that people have access to Drinking Water and that the supplies can comment but it doesnt end there because it is also critical that all parties ensure that the supplies do reach across yemen the most Vulnerable People the most vulnerable boys and girls we have and we are beyond facing and we continue facing hurdles to deliver that assistance to their medical people are in need parties need to work set the be that humanitarian access immediately and nobody can say they didnt know this was happening there has been weeks and weeks if not months now of our channel lots of different channels saying how bad the position is there again or what tat needs to happen to put pressure on those who are involved in this conflict to stop the war as you say not tomorrow but today. Well i hope that war is not me it is more children to die what i hope is not only is more children the new suffering children have been suffering enough children have been dying for reasons this need stop saw again and the from us on behalf of yemeni boys and girls to those parties in yemen those who have any influence over these parties to anyone our heart.

That you have brought down the. Great number of the economys improving and there. For a week has been the favorite in this election to win.

The homicide rate down by fifty percent over korea violence as well not of much but thirty percent which is. The murder capital of the world for nine years old so there are sixty percent of.

Protesters in pakistan are calling for a nationwide strike on monday after another day of escalating demonstrations theyre angry about the wording of a parliamentary bill place of been ordered to show restraint although six people were killed on saturday in efforts to break up the protests Marianna Hong reports. That a call to shut down pakistan issued by cleric and Political Party leader who stands in opposition to the government for three weeks protesters have choked the streets of islamabad when there was violence on saturday as police tried to disperse them they spread along highways to other major cities including a whore and she just. This movement is not political it is the duty of every muslim to protect the owner of his land the protesters maintain this is not political but this is an issue that could undermine pakistans government. It began when pakistans norman is desired hammered introduced a bill before parliament that made no reference to the Prophet Muhammad protest is linked it to the highly contentious issue of blasphemy and while the amendment was withdrawn blind on a clear cut era and hammered apologised the little known group behind the protests argued it remained an affront to islam and they want the minister gone. And after the violence on saturday they want the entire cabinet to resign to where. People arent coming out of their houses because theyre scared its a strange situation in the backyard of the narcanon this is the fault of the clerics their extremist attitudes they simply dont care about people and the business is being destroyed by the clerics doing this in the name of islam theyre absolutely wrong and people are in pain protest organizers have still managed to spread the call for the demonstrators did begin encouraged by. The police failed to get them off the streets Kadhim Hussein rizvi the cleric who leads the teddy eleven like Pakistan Party has called on his followers to bring the entire country to a halt. To zero. Well lets have a closer look at what led to these protests being driven by the. Pakistan movement is led by outspoken cleric are saying rizvi whos been using facebook to urge his supporters to demonstrate the group stems from the barrel of a sect of islam a barrel of a follower from tax country was executed in twenty sixteen after he as isolated liberal punjab governor taseer over his stance on the countrys blasphemy laws seems to have inspired the groups more hardline stance the protests have been simmering for nearly three weeks ever since a government minister introduced a bill to change the wording of an electoral law that made no reference to the prophet mohammed from a lighter is there protest in color on the highway between lahore and this im about. For the past two days the highway systems of pakistan have come to a grinding halt because the protesters are now broking intersections all along their route which travels from north to south and south. People are stuck on the highway these are some of the fortunate people who may have some facilities on the road but there are family. Elderly the sick who are stuck in the long queue the protesters will not allow them to move any further because of the anger that theyre expressing after the pakistani government went after those protected in rawalpindi and. Instead of there flooding them they have now turned out in large numbers and theyre saying that they will continue their rotation for many more days to come that of course will mean huge problems for people like the who are already suffering they say they need help and they need some guidance as to what to do for more on this. Who researches pakistan and the u. S. Institute of peace in washington last very much for joining his hair on aljazeera those behind the protesters saying they want to bring the country to a halt is whats really going on has some sort of push for power. Well look as far as i can tell the miseries of people are on the rise i mean its been eighteen days first in the capital city of islamabad the now spreading across the country so in some ways they have brought the country to a halt in terms of power i think this is really a little known group i mean for the first time theyre sort of emerged on the Political Landscape and my reading of this is this is very much about registering. Political protest and getting to was the next election in pakistan which is next year beyond that quite frankly the issue as it was raised was really not one about blasphemy the link was created and then the government had already backtracked and reverted to the original wording in the legislation that they had brought so in some ways they demanded been met its very difficult to defend whats been done by these protesters in the past eighteen days that said i will also say that true to form the pakistani state reaction has been heavy handed they have tried to disperse the protesters botched it up there are six or seven people dead and thus you see this spreading of a very small issue which has now become a National Headache a nuisance for the government and data and in some respects it feels like it spiraled out of almost out of control because of the way the government has reacted what do you think the government and the military should be doing now to really did deescalate whats going on on the streets. You know the decision in some ways has been made the government called out the military under the constitution it can do that and the military essentially told the government that theyre not going to come out and stand you know dispersing the writers thats not their job and thus the government needs to find a way to negotiate so i think the decision is made the government is going to cave in they are going to give these protesters more than they would have liked and essentially asked them to leave based on that for the state and for an effort by the pakistani state thats really taken back a lot of space from extreme right wing elements in the last three or four years this is really a very difficult situation and one one sees this going down in a way that the average citizen may see the state again buckling under pressure when these right wing protests take place one point the government oh pushed for a media blackout its a worrying departure for the government to try to do that and indeed is even possible with social media nowadays. Well they actually did it they didnt even push they did not only push but they actually had the major t. V. Channels off you tube was off for a while as was facebook so so they did implement the problem is in todays age this doesnt work i mean youre always going to have satellite channels youre going to have people using twitter etc and this is not the first time this has been done i mean even in the past previous governments have tried this and quite frankly failed at it the issue here the underlying issue is that the government felt that their t. V. Screens were going to shore police tear gassing these people going after them they would have a negative reaction because this government already has a black mark on its record because about three years ago they went after a political often and unprovoked and ended up killing seven people that still coming back to haunt them every now and then the court cases are alive so they were very wanted done happening and thats why i think they made this move but again the t. V. Channels are back on theyve had to retry him and thats always going to happen in todays age so im not sure that was advised by very good to get your thoughts use of speaking to us from washington. Pope francis is in the air making the flight from rome to them capital young gong for a three day of official visit it comes just days after the u. S.

One bishop from a remote pocket of catholics in chin state is hopeful the visit will go smoothly. That might be some differences of opinion between the pope and the government but since hes been invited to this country im sure they will be understanding a growing list of nations and International Bodies are calling the military crackdown on the right ethnic cleansing something myanmar rejects visiting both sides of the crisis the pope will meet military and civilian leaders here in myanmar who also hold a large mass and young gone the nations largest city. Then later in the week hell travel to bangladesh where hundreds of thousands of refugees are sheltering with plans to meet a group of and the countrys leadership catholics or across myanmar traveling here to yangon to see their cope some trips taking days by road and by rail and some sleeping outside just so they can be here.

Saudi arabias crown prince has warned a forty one Nation Alliance of muslim nations that it cannot allow terrorists to tarnish the name of Islam Mohammad bin selman was speaking at the first meeting of the Islamic Military Counterterrorism Alliance in riyadh. There is no doubt todays meeting is of great significance simply for the reason that over the past two years terrorism has been wreaking havoc in our respective countries in the absence of concerted coordination between our countries this is becoming history with the establishment of this coalition more than forty islamic countries have dubbed held efforts in combating terrorism with militarily financially or in terms of political and intelligence cooperation and the crown prince also offered his condolences to egypt where three hundred five people were killed on friday after fighters targeted a mosque in northern sinai mass graves have been made for some of the victims which included twenty seven children egypts president of the fattah elsisi has promised the use of brutal force against those responsible and a solid solidarity vigil has also taken place in palestine for the victims of the attack welcome where as more from gaza city.

Im dating his brokering reconciliation told to. Make Political Parties and i. Asked him factions this is meant to lead to a high number of power here on friday from hamas to the Palestinian Authority administration and its opponents of these developments for Egyptian Security officials and students arrive in gaza tomorrow these are reasons why palestinians political faction want to show solidarity with egypt at the moment but many people here in gaza already have rather seen several repeated that failed attempts at reconciliation before they wait to see what will happen in the coming days if this reconciliation will actually produce something.

Negotiations because it risks leading to a hard border between Northern Ireland and the republic of ireland which is part of the European Union border controls would be in violation of a nineteen year old deal which ended the conflict in Northern Ireland and its not just bricks it dividing the passes the Irish Language has also become a major issue from Belfast Nick Parker explains. In the heart of the. Its a Cultural Center in west belfast i was speakers discuss the issues of the day many want the Irish Language to have official status in the courts the Regional Parliament and on road signs like in scotland and welsh in wales very few people speak their language fluently here around eleven percent claim to have some knowledge of irish a figure that steadily growing among republicans who favor a United Ireland over british rule speakers.
