Or the people of yeah. Living on the other side of the line of. How serious on the says its intercepted for missiles which appear to have been launched from the direction of israel it comes after at least 17 people were killed in an strikes by syrian Government Forces and the russian allies in the latest attack on province syrian troops are advancing on the countrys last rebel held areas at least 40 people have been killed in a since thursday. Well intense shelling and strikes have forced thousands of displaced people to flee to refugee camps near the border with turkey and the United Nations is warning of a humanitarian catastrophe at least 25000 civilians have left over the past 2 days according to turkish state media around 205000 have reportedly been displaced from their homes since early november due to the russian and syrian attacks there are already about a 1000000 Syrian Refugees living near the border with turkey and the president says that his country cant handle a new wave of migration from russia to on is warning European Countries that they will also feel the impact if the violence in syrias north west continues what. Mood im 80000. 00 about probably from running from the bombs they have started migrating to which is if the violence towards the people does not stop this number would increase even. In that case turkey would not carry such margaret burden on its own depression subjected to some european nations especially greece. Well turkish president also says he will increase military support to the internationally recognized government in libya but only if its deemed necessary says that he plans to evaluate ground air and marine options also raise the possibility of sending troops if libya request them has backed the maritime boundaries deal which he signed with the libyan government.

Well now to iraq thousands of protesters of marched and blocked roads in the country demanding the appointment of an independent Prime Minister demonstrators in the capital baghdad and in the Southern City of buster a say one of the nominees is too closely linked to iran there is a new deadline for the naming of an interim Prime Minister demonstrators say theyre fed up with corruption for services and a shortage of jobs under have been killed since antigovernment rallies began in october. And while more protests in lebanon as well in the capital beirut as the country tries to resolve an economic and political crisis there were far fewer people at sundays demonstrations in comparison to previous rallies and there were no reports of any violence its a sign that many seen prepared to give the new Prime Minister designate a chance to anybody who reports to us now from beirut. Well the 67th day lebanese gathered in beirut smarter square to make a stand against the economic and political crisis that on sunday was more like a carnival than a protest where. The lebanese capital have witnessed some of the worst violence seen for years the Security Forces clash with supporters on either side of the political divide numbers well down and in marked contrast the anger and violence of previous gatherings is perhaps an indication that some at least are prepared to give the designated Prime Minister sunday out a chance. If they know its going to be a big problem and not going to go out from the streets were going to make them fail in this. One for the shouting might be untenable for the why are we being pessimistic we should be optimistic the new Prime Minister is decent enough corrupted he seems to be the man for the job and if it doesnt work well find another solution d. L. Was nominated by a weak Majority Parliament comprising of iran backed hezbollah and its allies the Shia Movement and president michel ounds Christian Free Patriotic Movement has promised to appoint a new government filled with technocrats and experts within 6 weeks tension may have reduced but for some within the Sunni Community there is still anger that their leader sayd hariri has not been chosen as Prime Minister and there are fears that some are seeking to cause a rift between the sunni and shia communities as they feel. It seems like some osieck be trying to incite sectarian strife and in reality we are far away from that we took the streets because of economy not religion. That is the priority the need for a government to solve the economic crisis lebanon is running out of short term choices the country has one of the worlds biggest debt burdens and the march is due to repay a one and a half 1000000000. 00 euro bonds load which is likely to default and that can only worsen the guy Economic Situation here. David hale the u. S. Undersecretary of state for Political Affairs is in beirut meeting with various political leaders he is key to delivering 11000000000. 00 in International Aid which has been locked until economic and political reforms are implemented. As an in and deep trouble financially i think at a certain stage within the next week or so will there will be more constraints on the backing sector. People will take to the streets. Full of the some are still singing about revolution but many are praying for a solution for now the people of lebanon can only wait and hope. Tony girty al jazeera beirut.

He has opened the country up since taking charge imposing a series of reforms and ending years of isolation but there still has been criticism from human Rights Groups they say thousands remained imprisoned on false charges. And early Election Results from croatia suggest that president clinton. Will face a leftist rival in a runoff round garber caetera which is seeking a 2nd 5 year term as croatia prepares to take over the European Unions rotating presidency for the 1st time that speech or are to one approve binya who is in the croatian capital zagreb and the incumbent will be disappointed that she wont maybe were expecting this to go to a 2nd round but its really the former Prime Minister there are milan of the leftist candidate who led this vote well he is frontrunner in this 1st round but some say he could easily lose in a runoff simply because rising waters of will not vote for him will vote against him and here we have miroslav score all right independent with more than 20 percent of the vaults some of these votes for sure in a runoff will go to keep her out of which todays wall would let me say this as well todays vote is seen as a test of popularity for ruling conservatives who supports guitar which indeed is a race for them it is important to have their candidate inside the presidency especially because this country as you said will take or were the e. U. Bloc for the 1st time in history starting from january as you say its an important election for i suppose setting the political tone what about croatias neighbors how what are they looking for from this election. Well these elections are important for them as well as in her circle when i was there one of the topics during the Election Campaign for some of 11 candidates we had indies elections that is as they say crucial issue the fact is was in her sort of in a is important because of 500 towers and Bosnian Croat sleep there 90 tolson of them are legible to vault so every time during Election Campaign was in her sabrina is important issue is important topic but it comes to relationships with that country and other neighboring countries well neighbors are not quite happy simply because the bucket hour which during her time in the office song from moderate to right creating enemies on both sides and. Her open and sore accusing her of stalking of right wing trends in croatia turning a blind eye on hate speech and historical revisionism that is not good for her relations to read neighboring countries abroad it is good for their support for the vaulting thank you very much for the latest result grab our developer binya now the 3 month wait for the results the president ial election in afghanistan is finally ended with what appears to be a narrow victory for president ashraf ghani the Electoral Commission says he secured a slim majority of just over 50 percent but supporters of the main rival out there are jealous say they dont accept the result and theyre calling for an investigation or manly has more. Afghanistans independent Election Commission announce a result which potentially puts president ashraf ghani on course for a 2nd 5 year term Mohamed Ashraf ghani the for its for Mohammed Ashraf ghani and 923868 and the votes for a dollar abdullah a 720990. 00. Although the results of the election in september is preliminary and may change in the final count ronnie says hes won with 51 percent of the vote now that he can gradually the whole Afghan Nation from the bottom of my heart on the announcement were going towards a National Trust and from division towards national unity. However voter turnout was low 1900000. 00 ballots were counted from 9000000. 00 registered voters in the 35000000. 00 population than his nearest rival chief executive a Dollar Dollar came in 2nd he rejected the result was the right asked to complain commission about 300000 disputed votes to fraudulent votes need to be separated from the final vote count. Fraud allegations were also made in the last president ial election 5 years ago. Ronnie and abdullah were locked in the election stalemate with each accusing the other of fraud that led to the u. S. Intervening to negotiate a power sharing agreement. To help stamp out Election Fraud the government brought in machines to collect voters biometric data but many argue people whose biometric data wasnt recorded wont have their votes counted there could very well be strong backlash among after the supporters many of whom house from holding power. And if we look at the past couple of months the lexicon that have been used as very much featured works like frocks radzivill and its been a very aggressive discourse the taliban increase attacks during the Election Campaign taliban leaders said the election was illegitimate and urged a boycott there were doubts about the election. Results and all that i think the commission tickets time to make sure that the concerns are equally birth from all parties the Afghan Government just sidelined in the year long negotiations between the u. S. And the taliban aimed at ending the 18 year will of the taliban rejects the government as a puppet for the americans. While ashraf ghani kinds victory the Election Commission hasnt announced a date for the final result nor about the man the aljazeera. Mexico is dealing with a Violent Crime epidemic figures are predicting the murder rate will exceed last years record spite strict gun regulations cartels can easily get all the firearms a smuggling rings traffic them in from the United States in the 1st of a 2 part investigation john holman speaks of the gun runners and the hit men using them. It shocked the 17th of october 2019 the day the sinhala kuto. Turned out like an army with a devastating ray of firepower they subjugate to the miss camilla treat self and took over the streets of coolie a kind that got even more but this man says he was then fighting with the cartel were talking about their weapons were most of the people there and on the side of the car with american guns the 2 clubs yes of course because all of the arms that we use here are from the other side of the border. If you dont want to go to go hes a hit man a soldier through organized crime one of the many across mexico responsible for record murder right how difficult would it be to do your job. If there wasnt this free flow of alms coming from the United States. It would be hard because the u. S. Is the chief supplier thats where we get the new explosive guns we need going to support about muslims local people of the guns that have been seized in mexico and traced 70 percent come from the United States theres a reason its hard to get a gun legally in mexico what the regulations are extremely strict not so in the u. S. And cartels you straw buys in gun shops in shows to get glocks a k 47 off if things and even machine guns its this mans job to smuggle them across the border about the truth is that its very easy to get them across we do hide them in the upholstery or where we can but the customs agents here dont really focus on that and searching it they never searched the car. We saw that for us selves when we made the journey from the u. S. Into mexico on a busy thursday night there were no possible controls we saw no border offices and just to Customs Officials checked to see of cars that were already free where internets could. A lack of vigilance which is hard to reconcile with mexicos concerns to let myself up over the last year the most worrying issue in mexico are the guns the guns that we saw on coulier khan were impressive i want to propose again but using the latest technology from both countries we can stop the arms trafficking at the border. We asked for an interview with mexicos Foreign Ministry in its Customs Agency to to discuss those Border Security plans we didnt hear back. Meanwhile quantities of weapons continue to be brought across they stashed in a multitude of safe houses on arrival the gun run is in charge of this one in a suburb of the border town mihi cali. When you move on when we come back with guns they can stay here a day or 2 and then our people come to get them when everything is ready take them away they distributed throughout the country being caught with one should mean jail time but if the government is get stopped by local police theres a simple solution. As they say here with money the drug dances sort it all out with cash and we each coraline way but i dont know you and you dont know me with the guns make their way to the Cartel Soldiers the same ones the battle to become its going to thirtys in the 17th of october this confrontation between the cartel and the government. That wouldnt have happened if the sin of hadnt had this easy access to weapons. Through a process so yes it would have happened but obviously as you say it would have been hard for us without that number of weapons i mean we probably wouldnt have beaten them if it wasnt so easy to get hold of the guns. The Mexican Forces humiliation then and in direct consequence of leaving us gun regulations and this countrys insufficient Border Security but there were other consequences to more intimate ones for the thousands of victims of mexicos shootings in part 2 well tell their stories john homan al jazeera mccully.
