I think its cotton picking season here on the edge of the figure in a valley the crop is good this year but its not what it used to be and its not because water is scarce here in kyrgyzstan but because in some parts its become out of reach because of a disputed border. The father murdered opinion they say every members how he used to spend time at the foot of these mountains with them with the move with them we used to swim in the lake there we practically grew up there we played all day and celebrated all the holidays the whole village would get together to celebrate thats how it was now they have to put in a border. Now demand and the reason why the villages of kalki down relied on i know this big east that the plot of land around the character then reservoir was exchanged for another parcel of land for do away of exactly the same size the characters government says its irrigated flat land which a country lacks this what is part of an agreement between the 2 sides over a border demarkation still not finalised since kyrgyzstan and as big a stand gained independence after the fall of the soviet union it runs for more than 1300 kilometers and its dotted with land claimed by both sides this is disputed territory its all the sources neutral sources mostly water sources close in that territories we have a dams we had we have the lakes and we have a sea we have a lake and we have a canales which is extremely important for all these neighboring countries and this is also disputed territories over the Energy Sources different than a valley is the agricultural heartland of central asia divided among stand whose biggest stand and southwest the g. Q. Stem the irony is that kyrgyzstan and upstream water rich country will lies on its neighbor for water in some parts of the figure never. The 2 countries are linked by a soviet era Canal Network so the water flows 1st to the k. K. Down reservoir and now on land and then back into kyrgyzstan something that baffles didnt moradabad more say so it could be thermal or slow greatly the logic is lost in kurdistan but you cant explain why we have water but at the same time we dont keep on thinking about it its like having a garden where you can go for a walk its nonsense. Now realise im another reservoir further inland that water remains are so self tension here with many saying whoever controls its flow will likely emerge as a Regional Power in central asia.

To. Us. Book about to the lee is here with all the sports thank you so well 3500 women are attending a Football Game right now in iran for the 1st time fee for have sent a delegation to ensure women can enter and stay safely during the world cup qualifier with cambodia previously they could only watch matches on team now covering this for us is a bus ride live for us and to her on there whats the mood like where you are. We spoke to you guys just about 30 minutes ago and in that time the score is 3 nil so the game is moving along very quickly and its maybe because cambodia is not a Stronger Team or because iran team is being cheered on by thousands of women just give me a chance to sort of set the scene for you to my right is the main entry to the football stadium the men have been walking in at their convenience to my left there have been buses parked here they bussed women in from the entrance to the womens entrance on the left and i have to say an hour before the game got underway you could hear women cheering you can hear them blowing the vuvuzela is and every time weve heard a score this part of the stadium has been much louder than the other side so there is definitely a great deal of excitement here we were outside the stadium with many women who were trying to get in ahead of game time some of them had tickets some of them didnt but everyone there was very excited we spoke to one woman who said that shes going to try to get in even if she has to stay there till the end of the day well some of the critics of this miss say that 3500 women is not enough that more women should be allowed into the sporting event do you think that this kind of a move is just the beginning for women and sports. Thats exactly right the capacity of the stadium is up 280000 so the 3500 perhaps even the 4000 that are inside now its a very small number and thats what women outside the gates were saying to us one attendee said that as far as shes concerned the whole stadium should be opened up to games for female only attended games another woman we spoke to said that she doesnt even like football but getting into the same games as the men are allowed to attend is an equal rights issue its a womens rights issue and theres still women outside the stadium trying to get in now the crowds are getting bigger some people were in touch with now said that the police are getting more aggressive threatening with threatening women who dont have tickets and wont leave the area with a rest and some of them are getting a little more forceful trying to push people away from the area to clear the doors now the government has said to us that as far as theyre concerned this is the forward trend the number of women attending stadium games will only go up but there is a proviso they will only do so in so far as authorities are able to maintain islam exile use maintain public order laws that are in line with islamic coned codes of conduct so as long as they can continue to maintain that they will allow more and more women to enter thats the pledge that the government has made but again the Police Taking the ticket issue very seriously not letting women who dont have tickets in but many people say that they will stay out there until the end trying to get in to watch these matches zain thank you so much gone joy again for yourself our organizers at the Rugby World Cup of canceled 2 matches on saturday as typhoon gave us moves closer to the coast of japan the match between england and france in yokohama its been called off when england going through to the quarter finals as winners of pool scene and france progressing as the runners up new zealands pool b. Match against italy has also been cancelled effectively ending italy slim hopes of making the final 4. We always knew there were going to be risks its rare for a talk of this magnitude to cause this impact this late in the typhoon season we had robust plans and as a say the plans that were implementing now are in accordance with our plans for the pool phase we have a different set of contingencies for the knockout phase and last its regrettable weve made we believe the right decision with with everyones safety is the priority were not concerned at all were excited absolutely excited great opportunity who would have thought wed have had to relatively easy games one tough guy and then 2 weeks and pay for a quarter final to someone smiling on us the top 3 in gods maybe. A decision on sundays big pool a match between japan and scotland will be made later on but should that be cancelled it would in scotlands chances of making the quarterfinals thats despite their 61. 00 mil thrashing of russia on wednesday our meteorologist Robert Mcelwee has been tracking this one. Super typhoon gave us unconstrained in the warm open western pacific is about as big and vicious as it can get his couldnt a category 5 hurricane producing winds around about 300 Kilometers Per Hour and ways of 800 meters now it is still heading to tokyo it wont be quite as strong when it gets but it will still be pretty vicious hence the precautions taking place now hes got 2 days to actually make honshu which means the rain will start to be felt during friday when practiced in suzuka seems likely and you can see much of honshu is covered by the dark agree which is the heavy rain the heart of the storm itself makes landfall late on saturday and 2nd sedations no mass transit stay indoors is the advice but out same get to time get to sunday hes going offshore again he could well be that the match just take place in company she goes ahead on standing as to what happens in tokyo york or hama depends on how much damage is done when the typhoon crosses as you heard rob mccallum we mentioned there the formula one race at suzuka could also be affected organizers say they are closely monitoring the situation around a typhoon had to be ace which could disrupt qualifying for sundays race the japanese grand prix is been affected by extreme weather several times before in terms of rain we dont need too much for it to be unsafe specially you know when when you throw wind in there as well it gets i think pretty tricky but yeah we can obviously debate a lot and discuss but i think we just have to wait and see what actually hits doesnt how bad it is and not and you know make the make the right call at the time naomi osaka has given up her u.

Has turkey intensifies its crowded arafat serve against kurdish fighters in the north east of syria president has harsh words for his critics. Also u. S. President donald trump says hes talking to both the kurds and the turkish government because pizza spread to turkeys economy is that he doesnt play by the rules in syria. Talks a lot when you watch the olds their life while headquarters here in doha coming up in the next 30 minutes protesters in ecuador following Twitter Police during a National Strike a very mustve hike in fuel prices. Plus how water is at the center of a 30 year old border dispute in central asia. Because ive become think welcome to aljazeera turkey has intensified its offensive against kurdish fighters in northeastern syria 3 civilians have been killed including a child in mortar fire in the border town. Now theres heavy fighting in border villages on day 2 of turkeys military operation huge plumes of smoke could be seen billowing in the sky as turkish jets bombarded kurdish positions turkeys president reza thurber the one has defended the military all souls which he said was an operation and we quote to eliminate terrorists also lashed out at countries opposed to the operation. True that it was on the motions saudi arabia should look in the mirror they put yemen in the situation and look whats happening there are tens of thousands of people are dying in yemen saudi arabia you should talk about this 1st we cannot criticize our operation or so egypt you cannot talk at all you are the murderer of democracy in your country because morsi is the it was elected by 52 percent in a democratic election and now you do not allow his family to bury him properly this is the kind of murderer you want him. To know dont me big there with 3600000 Syrian Refugees in our country whiting to go back to their homes the European Union look at yourself i repeat at the moment you cannot call or define the operation as an invasion our job is easy we could just open the doors in 2600000 refugees we will see in the back to you where the one certain more than 100 fighters were killed but Kurdish Forces say that theyve repelled fresh ground attacks they are also warning of a humanitarian crisis as thousands of residents have begun to leave their homes to safety. Well we have our correspondents covering the developments in washington d. C. And is stumble but 1st lets go to the harder. On turkeys border with syria the bombardment there is getting more intense just bring us up to speed on the latest of whats happening near you. Well this is very much an active front lines throughout the day the turkish army and its ground an air offensive heavily bombarding a number of locations close to the border among those locations is the Syrian Border town behind me tel aviv so heavy bombardment but at the same time the kurdish Led Syrian Democratic forces have been retaliated and they have been firing rockets that are landing here in the Turkish Border town of our chuckle a what we understand from the governor is that 2 turkish civilians were killed along with a syrian child so civilian casualties here on the turkish side of the border as this operation is now in its 2nd day what we have seen the strategy of the turkish army throughout the past few hours has been to heavily target and bomb board the defenses of the s. The f. To allow their Ground Forces to move into northeast syria the area of operations is now confined to a 100 kilometer stretch of territory that really begins behind me in the town of tel aviv stretching all the way down the line what we understand is that the turkish army has managed to move in advance in a number of fronts what theyre trying to do is cut the supply lines but the military operation for the time being is focused on capturing rural areas they seemed to want to cut the supply runs capture those who are areas before they push into towns but i have to say that the as the f. Is fighting back they did promise to put up a fight they did promise that this will be a long battle if indeed turkey wages this campaign. Is very pleased. The turkish president is concerned he was very clear about that and youll seeing done perspective certainly on the ground and hearing about it from your sources on the other side of the border. Well for the turkish government there are 2 main objectives here its for Turkish National security they launched this operation they do not want to see the s. D. F. On its border and now we call it the s d f but the turkish government calls this just a cover really because this the backbone of this force is the Syrian Kurdish armed group the y p g which it considers an offshoot of the outlawed Kurdistan Workers Party so they see this as eliminating a Security Threat along its borders but at the same time the turkish government hopes to create a safe zone to allow millions of syrians to return to their homes we spoke to the governor here and and what he told us was that 400000. 00 syrians come from from the area of the safe zone we want them to be able to return but this plan really has come under a lot of criticism the International Committee some of the International Community is saying this is changing the demographics in syria something that turkey and its local allies in syria deny they blame the white p. G. For ethnic cleansing and for changing the democratic demography of the area so turkey yes it is battling the earth in syria but it also waging another type of of battle really trying to get the International Community on board to support its military campaign and support its plan to resettle refugees in the safe zone that it hopes to create behind me and of course it will continue to monitor whats going on new you time progress is its cross over to. Our correspondents in consumer has also been listening in to what you have to say you say the. President spoke in the last few hours he silly clearly set out his agenda also made it very clear about how disappointed. Even angry he was that the International Community is not supported in this particular operation. Well so 1st hes upset because turkey is accused of what he calls invasion of syria plus hes upset today he doesnt get any support from the up countries as either even as abidjan as i said in the previous bulletins which is a very close friend and ally of turkey didnt show much support for this operation turkey believes its cold as legitimate because this operation is conducted in order to fight against what its course terrorist organization the p. K. K. And the wife e. G. A turkey has been saying that why p. G. Is that using a different logo than the p. K. K. But even when they surrendered when they when they captured rock guard few years ago they use flags of the jail to pick a caylee there that was a proof of the link between the 2 organizations he has been trying to explain this but it seems he has failed to. Convince the International Parties thats why he was very harsh today he needs he wants to get International Support of course because hes a bit feeling actually many people into a car being left out alone he got the support from Political Parties the Opposition Nationalist Party and other parties exiles from the pro cornish h d p party which is totally against this operation saying that its targets the course however the officials have been emphasizing that kurds are not the target there are 300 at this 300000 kurds from combiner who fled there because of the s. D. F. And now residing in turkey this is only against the p. K. K. Theyre not targeting the settlements or residential areas but. The International Opinion so far hasnt been on the side of turkey and thats why they will have a way to go through but i have to say that the spite the main opposition. Party in turkey supports the governments military operation they urged the government to make immediate contact with the Syrian Regime saying that the regime is the legitimate representative of syria immediate that they should contact the Syrian Regime for this military operation the spike the support they give to the government for the moment thanks to the person consider in istanbul lets cross over to the u. S. For american reaction from our White House Correspondent kimberly held at kimberly we are hearing from the american president hes tweeting again. Yes he is tweeting again this time a series of tweets but 2 notable ones with regard to turkey once again the u. S. President is defending the enormous amount of bipartisan criticism that he has received for his announcement late sunday evening that he would be pulling back u. S. Troops to make way for the Turkish Military operation the president writes turkey has been planning to attack the kurds for a long time they have been fighting for ever we have no soldiers or military anywhere near the attack area im trying to end the endless wars talking to both sides some want us to send tens of thousands of soldiers to the area and start a new war all over again turkey is a member of nato others say stay out let the kurds fight their own battles even with our financial help i say hit turkey very hard financially and with sanctions if they dont play by the rules and watching very closely what the president is really trying to defend is his argument that the United States has for for a generation now at least perhaps others would argue even longer been injecting itself into conflicts with historical ramifications that the United States often does not understand the nuances of and this is another example of that so the argument of the u. S. President is he was to keep this 2016 Campaign Promise hold back and notable in that is support for Bipartisan Legislation introduced in the senate on wednesday that would punish turkey very hard financially and economically there had been some consideration in all of this knowing that its veto proof in the u. S. Senate where the u. S. President stood on that legislation he wouldnt have the opportunity to veto it but now it sounds as if he is in support of pressuring turkey very economically particularly if there are agreed Human Rights Violations that take place in the course of this military operation. The president come speak to turkey in that way but he cant speak to his own Party Members in the same way because they as you say have been coming down on him like a ton of bricks we will see a situation like so with the criticism hes received from his own people. Yeah theres a real feeling within the Republican Party that. The kurds have been fighting alongside the United States been considered a reliable ally for more than 5 years and the United States has abruptly turned its back on a very reliable and loyal ally but getting traction is also within the Republican Party the reminder that there is a segment of the Republican Party known as the neo conservatives that are constantly drumming and thumping the drums for war namely senator Lindsey Graham republican liz cheney who is father with Vice President dick cheney of course very
