But there precaution grenades is the official name there theyre saying please make a very load bang and they do make people start for a second but they dont tend to break up crowds that are as the term and as the people here in East Jerusalem what you see is the police theyve been running confrontations throughout the day and certainly the gentleman you see right in front of the camera there with the the camera and the phone hes been identifying stone throwers and then we have seen the soldiers move on mass at pace trying to grab the people that they think are responsible for throwing some of the stones but thats what weve seen stones being thrown here but this all started with a small peaceful demonstration a number of people number of older people as well he came out with a picture of jerusalem on the dome of the rock and they were intending moving towards headed skate which is probably less than half a kilometer from where im standing they went no farther than fifteen meters and then the police suddenly stopped them put up a barrier and said you dont have a permit youre not going any farther pushed them back and at that point that is where the confrontation started no ive seen the horses be used to break up crowds theyve been plowing into people have no way to get away from them because if the does cars on the building its very difficult to move in so people have been injured because of the horses weve seen the police take palestinian flags from people whove been that doing nothing more than waving them there was one Woman Holding a poster im not sure what was on the poster but we saw the Police Officer move up try to pull it from the woman she resisted and then he punched her fool in the face so theres been that sort of action and weve seen in response weve had people throwing bottles of water and some stones at the police which is going to move because this car is desperate to get through all the weather youll get past the police lines im not entirely sure and you can see the smoke coming from those dumpsters as they call them in the in a to.

T. If youre not a party for more than two decades the Opposition Congress party is trying to win votes by highlighting the b j ps unpopular decision to introduce a sales tax and to remove high value banknotes from circulation bill and john welcome hi is a journalist and author he says that polarizing decisions by the b j p have made this election a close race. Since the opinion polls have been conducted from august the leads in the surveys have slipped by almost about seventeen per cent and this is slipping primarily because of the unpopular decisions and agitations going on in the state of which there are parky a result of the huge political vacuum that was left in the state after mr modi moved to center and become the Prime Minister in his absence the seat has the party that we g. P. Has floundered in the state of gujarat and has not been able to manage the situation that is what has resulted in a huge amount of uprising from various sections of people various social groups have been agitating for the blast almost two and a half years so what was supposed to have been a video routine simple election for mr moody to win has suddenly turned on his head and its opposing probably the biggest challenge in three and a half years since he became the Prime Minister of india i think its really going to go down to the wire this is an election which pollsters are finding it extremely difficult to call because of what shares of the two parties the b.

The bullet wound on the infected and wont heal. Infections are common in the camp with hundreds of thousands of other refugees its not known how many children have been killed by the Myanmar Military in this recent crackdown on the river injure the myanmar government is refusing any kind of independent investigation but whats so shocking about this case is that having spoken to two witnesses and the medics treating her all evidence suggests that the myanmar soldier knowingly shots at a nine Year Old Girl from close range. Is sort of indicative of a hard life the weapon and i watch caliber bullet of something of a seven sixty nine and like a five five six bullet which would tend to hit in bath ran and do a lot of internal damage given also the trajectory we think that it would be with him for fifty made a range limit the shooter was operated on in a malaysian government Field Hospital near the refugee camp tiny pieces of fabric from the clothes she was wearing when she was shot infected the wound.
