Coming up. A suspected chemical weapons attack by Syrian Government forces within a month a warning from the us. Refugees in. A mass brawl over food handouts plus. A fabled shipping routes in the dramatic change warming. Has obtained the un report which says the Saudi Led Coalition is the greatest responsibility for the deaths of dozens of children in yemen last summer says the coalition was responsible for the killing of six. The eight children and the wounding of thirty six others from july to september the report found there were at least thirty Coalition Raids every day some targeting schools and homes but it also points the finger at the rebels blaming them for the deaths of eighteen children and the wounding of twenty nine others suzanne meagen is a protection and advocacy adviser on yemen at the Norwegian Refugee Council she says the International Community must do more to stop the conflict. This report details children who have been killed in attacks in violence but it doesnt account for the millions of others that are affected by the conflict including thousand that have. Hundreds of thousands that have been affected by cholera children that are not able to go to School Children that are on the brink of dying of starvation so id like to think itll be taken seriously but it remains to be seen i it is astounding to me that we have a United NationsSecurity Council that has not commented on yemen in now more than seven months that the scale of suffering in yemen is incomparable we have twenty two Million People in need a west beaking to families who are fleeing their homes because of violence in constructing houses out of plastic bags and people dont have enough to eat theyre forced to eat whatever they can find this this sort of suffering is inexcusable and wed really like to see some action taken from the u. S. The u. K. And the United NationsSecurity Council that were seeing that all parties to this conflict have complete disregard for the impact of the conflict on civilians. The numbers might be increasing or decreasing but we can never be absolutely sure what those numbers are because some of these areas are so hard to reach in any case any attack that impacts the civilians or forces them to leave their homes is clearly in violation of the rules of war and something we call on parties to to stop immediately the United States is taking a tough stand against suspected chemical weapon attacks in syria the crumpet ministrations says its not ruling out the use of force to deter the Syrian Government. Washington says its extremely concerned about a suspected chlorine attack on duma on the first day now if confirmed it would be the first chemical attack in thirty days meanwhile in Hama Province also held by rebels airstrikes have destroyed an underground hospital it was regarded as one of the best protected in syria but medics a repeated strikes on thursday put it out of service seventy deca has the latest from untuck in Southern Turkey near the syrian border.

In northern france five migrants are in hospital with gunshot wounds after a mass brawl in cali police were called in those afghan and eritrean refugees fought for two hours on the outskirts of the city hundreds of migrants remain the of the port hoping to cross the English Channel after the socalled jungle camp was demolished two years ago French Interior minister has visited the scene. Joins us now live from calif so how did a food collection turn so ugly. Well it out here all took place on thursday afternoon here in france around three oclock local time when refugees had gathered at this food collection point as you say its something that happens on a daily basis is organized by charity the activists they were there and suddenly this point broke out now were told it was a fight that involved around thirty afghan refugees around one hundred eritreans and what particularly alarming is the gunshots were fired now we dont know exactly who fired those gunshots but we are told by police that they are looking for an afghan man the French Interior minister spoke a bit early and suggested it could be people trafficking but it was an extremely violent situation by all accounts many of the refugees you take and metal weapons and were now in a situation in which five refugee eritrean were wounded by those gunshots four of them critically and more than twenty others were hurt during those clashes. Now on this scale of your loss we see that we have reached a new level of violence tonight an escalation of violence that has become completely bearable for the people of color and for the migrants we cant allow a sense of the survival of the fittest in our country so yes we will do everything we can. Since the socalled jungle camp was closed down the spotlights really fallen off the area what sort of conditions are people existing in there well i think it is clearly continues to be something of a Pressure Cooker because you have refugees arriving here all the time most of them want to try and reach the u. K. To cross the English Channel but security is extremely high its getting more and more difficult to do that and then they simply become stuck in this northern port they are sleeping mostly rough outside its very cold at the moment it is the winter but any time of year the conditions are grim and they really are relying on the kindness of strangers and these food handouts or for people to try and give them clothing now the French Interior minister are close suggested earlier and this was interesting he thinks that some of those charities who are organizing those food distributions in a way bear some responsibility for the violence on thursday because they are attracting people to come they are attracting people to cali and theyre also encouraging these large crowds of people gathering in one place but the charities have hit back they say this is simply unfair and untrue and the fact is they are doing the humanitarian work looking after the most fundamental that the french stated simply failing to do from cal a. Still ahead of al jazeera the u. S. Braces for the release of a controversial memo which is pitting the president against the f. B. I. Weve got more wintry flurries making their way across japan over the next couple days but some pieces of cloud bringing some snow showers into western pos and also over towards the east these areas of low pressure up to sing some rain sleet and snow we had a decent covering of snow in tokyo recently and i think we may well see a further dusting as we go on through the next day or two but its a battle sas day northern parts of japan perhaps more with a chance of seeing that wintry mix but this system will make its way in from the sea of japan and a little covering of snow sandy a possibility for some as we go on through sunday tokyo getting up to around ten celsius i think it will be sleet as opposed to snow coming through here may well lucky to get up to ten celsius into parts of Southern China over the next twelve celsius that the hong kong further north shanghai still on the cold side that normally brace packing temperatures back to just one degree celsius picking up a little as we go through sunday that cold rain continuing to blow its way through and it also makes its way down across a good part of vietnam meanwhile the showers to continue across Southeast Asia some lively showers there into central and southern parts of the philippines somewhat weather to into malaysia but it should sound somewhat dry at the time and. More than seven decades ago a country was split in two we believe that we did in india and now. Been ridhima all it took was a pan a map and a collapsing empire when the british had to draw a line they pulled his servant who had never been to india before aljazeera examines the violent birth of india and pakistan and asks what the future holds for these Nuclear Neighbors partition borders of blood at this time. Youre watching aljazeera time to recap our headlines now aljazeera has obtained a un report which says the saturday coalition bears the greatest responsibility for the deaths of yemeni children he blames the coalition for killing sixty eight children between july and september says whoa three fighters also killed children the United States isnt ruling out the use of force to deter the Syrian Government from using chemical weapons washington says its extremely concerned about the suspected chlorine gas attack on first day the attack in duma would be the third in the month if confirmed. Five migrants are in hospital in northern france with gunshot wounds after a mass brawl in kalai police were called in as afghan and eritrean refugees fought for two hours on the outskirts of the city. Returning now to our top story in the un report which says the Saudi Led Coalition bears responsibility for deaths of yemeni children shall be a man too is the spokeswoman in yemen for the uns Refugee Agency she joins us by skype from santa good to have you with us when you have the youngest most vulnerable members of society become victims and targeted in this way what does that do to the humanitarian situation. Well look at the humanitarian situation in yemen has been to security because the conflict its not just affecting children its affecting everyone who i mean its affecting seventy five percent of the population so concerned is that as long as complete continues that we are going to see more and more. Secure were also going to see more and more humanitarian needs and rights as well so children or women the elderly people with this you can live on or not hes not suffering the most in yemen at the moment but it is widespread as mentioned we have the majority population really affected by the complaint and a need to mention or. The report says that the majority of children who are dying or being wounded by the conflict that activities by the Saudi Led Coalition what are the coalition to change in their tactics to avoid this. More look obviously cant speak to the report now thats not a matter of process humanitarian agency our concern is really the protection of the welfare of people whove been affected by the conflict are you know has been made since the conflict to really try and ensure the protection of civilians were seeing that people are continuing to be displaced by the conflict when continue to cease incursions and were just continuing to see other Communicable Diseases rise as well as your yemen as a result of conflict is dealing with. I understand its a jump in. And of course situation visibly the report but in terms of what you see and what your workers see on the ground what do the warring parties need to change so that children are not caught up in this conflict. You know has been that from all the manager actors working on the ground that really we need to do more to protect civilians so civilians need to be spared and civilian life needs to be ensured that its protected as chemical as we will see more not nationals with normal also samosa so really its the protection of civilians and respect for international norms. Are we seeing an increase in the recruitment of children. More women and were seeing a white. Rejection issues him as a result of the conflicts there its got to do with children ripping up school its also got to do with women and children now being forced to admit being exploited being in particularly vulnerable situations so we are going to see more and more consequences as a result of really just rationing trying to survive and also being very particularly vulnerable situation as a result of having no resources and really exhausted. Or it will leave it there for now thanks so much for talking to us. Thank you.
