The agreement on three so if. To be managed to get the agreement with the Kurdish Forces inside the city that would mean the city would return back to under the control of the Syrian Regime but the consequences of that will depend very much on the conditions of the kurds are going to accept the major conditions of the Syrian Regime with very heavy weapons.

An internal report released by oxfam has revealed three of its workers threatened witnesses during an investigation into Sexual Misconduct in haiti the charity released a report after being criticized for a lack of transparency over allegations its direct in haiti use prostitutes joining an aid mission there reports israel unfun admitted the behavior previously denied the claim is Barnaby Phillips joins us from london barnaby tell us more about this report and the findings. Well this is oxfams attempt to be accountable belatedly you might say about what happened in twenty eleven the report as published online anyone can go and find it the names of the seven individuals who were sacked as a result or who left as a result of the twenty eleven investigation those names are blacked out but they wont be when the report is handed over to the haitian government later today it gives an impression of a pretty dysfunctional and unhappy operation that oxfam was running in the wake of the terrible earthquake in haiti it says that the use of underage prostitutes cant be ruled out as bullying this intimidation that the downloading of pornography and i think you know theres some embarrassment for oxfam as well the way in which the country director ronald on how the myron was allowed i quote a dignified and phased exit in return for cooperating with the investigation now the report says that one of the problems that oxfam has to get to grips to is what happens to quotes problem staff after they leave oxfam or after they leave a specific country operation we know that many were able to secure employment with other or Aid Organizations in the future run move on have them arent being a case in point took over an Important Role in bangladesh after having been allowed to leave haiti and i wonder where this leaves the charity now the response to this and what it means the Bigger Picture here. Well i think this is this is a crisis of legitimacy obviously for oxfam but indeed many Aid Organizations people are very worried at the moment well have to see how the government in haiti responds to the report but judging from remarks from the haitian president in recent remarks in recent days he sees the problem as going beyond one Aid Organization hes asked for example why seventeen staff who belong to med sansom frontier m. S. F. Were allowed to leave the country after some sort of allegations rumors of ill conduct the sunday Times Newspaper here in the United Kingdom published a report yesterday saying that it believed or it had information that about one hundred twenty members of leading Aid Organizations had been dismissed for various acts of Sexual Misconduct in recent years oxfam has said that it wont be taking any money from the United Kingdom government intil effectively it is got its own house in order and it acknowledges the need for that what does that mean in terms of operations well oxfam employs i think about ten thousand people all over the world and almost ten percent of its money comes from the United Kingdom government but of course the potential reputational damage if those funds were to be cut off permanently could be extremely severe Bundy Phillips thank you so had an aljazeera.
