Welcome to the program turkeys president says attacks against Syrian Government forces will continue unless a reverse their advance in italy province turkeys military operations ratcheted up after dozens of turkish troops were killed in an attack in the region last week but rest time burdwan also says that hes hoping to secure a cease fire when he meets russian counterpart Vladimir Putin in moscow on thursday. Tells us to stand. I like to call on russia and iran one more time we do not have any problem with you and syria but of the Syrian Government forces do not withdraw turkey has determined as soon as possible that they will not have a hed lift on their shoulders. Is in hati in turkey with more on early ones military operation. This explains why hes been defiant today saying that Operation Spring shield will continue warning the Syrian Government against tough retaliation if they continue their offensive and asking them to pull out from behind the Demilitarized Zone so the Turkish Military is continuing its operation particularly in the province but however i think this is going to be a chance also for turkish president to see whether the russians are willing for some sort of a compromise and this explains why the president of the land was saying today that if the cease fire was to be implemented in the syrian troops pulled behind the Demilitarized Zone that could be conducive to you deescalation and you political settlement that will put an end to the escalation that weve been seeing over the last few days in the area so on one hand he had to show how aggressive he is when it comes to Operation Spring shilled and that this is going to continue in the upcoming days but a same time he was reaching out to president Vladimir Putin saying that this could be our last chance when we meet on the 5th of march to try to defuse the tension no child has died after a boat loaded with migrants capsized off the greek island of last waltz 47 other migrants trying to reach the greek island turkey have been rescued thousands of refugees have been attempting to cross into europe of to ankara said it would no longer enforce the Border Security forces say theyve prevented 10000. 00 people from entering the us despite the greek Prime Ministers warnings to refugees not to enter europe illegally.

Well and so there does seem to be an increase in arrivals yesterday that with around 160. 00 people arrive. By one of the main points to keep talking about is their response now 72015 now this a lot exactly thats not sort of barassi not people in that force and tired and that angry and that anger standing out not just sort of people arriving but whats managed care and still its janice chen the situation and to the feeling on the ground its incredibly tense it feels like everyone here. Number of journalists were attacked yesterday what had to be hospitalized a number and you know wackos have been attacked and her car its been destroyed so its a real. Kind of community and you know its like the tensions are going to continue to rise and right now that its not just to be honest and down with the need more right of common narrative thats going to happen thats the Current Situation that were seeing right now and thats fun in the in the weeks leading up to this there was some frustration by local residents over the construction of sort of more Detention Centers and also you might say the lack of communication this particular case between the island and the capital athens and what athens was going to do about this who sort of clarified that the ceiling in that respect. Yes definitely not sweet. Creek up the mess in athens and now its that they were going to go ahead with the building but its tensions that set in the north that nice thoughts and if. Response unit thats very very against the building and not the camp they fail and at the government steps in faction im broke right that im in to deal with great attention and its only escalated the situation i dont just feel betrayed by the government be honest i suspect and i wrote. A man who was standing outside that proposed construction site last day that Tension Center and they just told us how they felt like theyve been betrayed and 2nd its been a kind of series of events which thats whats happening now and that is a real sense of distrust and then a community with that Central Government in athens to who were elected saying they would deal with the situation on the island try and help and i have this you know like that hasnt happened yet and things dont get lots so in terms of why good sitter arriving from what you know just sort of talk us through exactly what happens when they arrive on the beach or what sort of help are they getting from any sort of aid agency all forward to see if they are present when they arrive own land.

Or we will continue to watch what happens casey founded thanks so much for your insights thank you thank you. The European Union has raised the official risk level for krone virus to high more than 2100. 00 infections have been confirmed across the block and that includes italy which has become a global hotspot that many countries are now taking action to protect themselves as the very latest while correspondent in paris Natasha Butler but its not just museums that are closing down over this period natasha the president has been very clear about what hes going to do and what he expects the nation to do. Oh yeah the french president a man on my car has canceled or his traveling gauge once this week in order to remain in paris and really survey what is happening as the krona virus spreads in france you are hearing for example that there are reports from a french newspaper saying that 2 people may have died today in northern france so those are unconfirmed written records but it does give you a sense of how each day there are new cases coming up and it seems perhaps more fatalities now the move where im standing the museum is of course one of the worlds most famous museums there are some people here who have come to see it obviously hoping to get inside but for a 2nd day at the museum is closed and that is because a soft of very concerned about the risks so that they could be exposed to the coronavirus if there are people coming to visit the move that are actually carrying it now the management of said to them that they can stay off work for today we dont know how long thats going to last and we dont know as well where the other museums and Cultural Centers in paris will follow suit because people are of course becoming more nervous theyre more worried about the risk theyre taking their everyday lives whether its on public transport or going to work well for the update natasha thank you in the touch of books with our correspondents in paris well staying on message a kid visor to irans Supreme Leader has died from growing a virus infection and together monday the government confirmed another 12 deaths and 523. 00 new cases as it struggles to contain the outbreak dozens of top government officials have now tested positive reports that there are few reasons why irans political elites have been so affected. Latest this gentleman who passed away mohamed mir mohamed he was in his seventies so at risk of certainly succumbing to the virus at risk of of passing away and unfortunately that is whats happened he was a member of the Expediency Council and a group of advisors to the Supreme Leader made up of technocrats military officers government officials and since the beginning weve seen that the government has been largely affected at least 20 members of government at least 20 Senior Leaders biased and its here in iran have come in contact with this disease have come under it have contracted the coronavirus d since this began and this includes the Vice President a female member of president of the on his cabinet as you said m. P. s deputies spokespeople and one of the reasons we might be seeing this is because the corona Virus Outbreak happened in tandem with the timing of the parliamentary election here in the country a few weeks ago so weve seen many Senior LeadersMany Political players serious political players would have been going to clone ground 0 for the disease here in this country for this virus in iran and the reason they were going to hold regularly during the time of the election is because poland is a city of religious seminaries and because of the religious form of government here in iran it is a Major Political heartland so you would have seen people going there to take part in an electioneering to take part in trying to get support and funding for their candidates and for their parts and that is one of the reasons weve seen that this corona Virus Outbreak here in iran has had exponentially more impact on leaders here in the country. Well still ahead here on aljazeera government mind dissolves there was allowed to mean miles Rakhine State where the army is accused of genocide against the ruling god. Welcome back lets start by looking at the weather across asia this time theres an area of low pressure just a fact in northern parts of japan some heavy snow there and then weve got the risk of snow showers in the western side of honshu meanwhile tokyo enjoy a cracking day on choose to a maximum of 16 degrees celsius weve got some heavy rain across more southern parts of china that stays clear of hong kong so it should be fine in hong kong and largely fine in taipei where that rain will be working its way into northern parts of vietnam so annoy theres a growing risk of showers in choose day and more particularly into wednesday that is 21. 00 degrees at that stage weve got to rain affecting more south western parts of japan some snow across the far east of russia and into parts of north korea and tokyo seeing a big change as the wind swings around towards the south very scraping 10 degrees celsius then theres the southeastern parts of asia a mass of showers all across the island of borneo no distinction is just blanket showers but fina conditions there you can see formulae planche there kuala lumpur looking at 34 degrees into south asia its a largely fine picture here plenty of sunshine for delhi maxim of 27 not poor looking pretty hot to temps and mid thirtys but we are seeing the chance of one or 2 showers just about paying down through the western counts. Of. The u. S. President s proposed plan for the middle east is less territory to be honest time than any other peace plan since 1948 hours after rewards of israel have failed. Because obvious one video was biased of United States the artist rome how much they and the palestinian Prime Minister told challenges era. Revealing Eco Friendly Solutions to come back threats to our planet on aljazeera. All. Book about your watching of his or of me as a whole romney a reminder of our top stories turkeys president says attacks against Syrian Government forces will continue if they dont reverse their advance and employer profits turkey ramped up military operations after dozens of turkish troops were killed in an attack in the region last week also a child has died after a boat load of refugees capsized off the greek island of last boss greek Security Forces have prevented thousands of refugees from landing after turkey said it wouldnt in force its border with European Countries such as greece and the area. And the European Union has raise efficiency risk level for crowed virus to high more than 2100. 00 infections have been confirmed across the block and that includes france which has closed the Louvre Museum and counseled several major events now israelis are voting in the 3rd general election in less than a year its hoped itll bring an end to months of political turmoil israelis and had a caretaker government since the 1st inconclusive election last april Prime MinisterBenjamin Netanyahu has failed twice to form a Coalition Government and in september the blue and White Party Leader benny gantz was asked to form a government and also failed. Go vote its a proud day this is a democracy you have a great right that you should exercise with confidence the corona thing is completely under control today weve taken all the precautions that are necessary people can go and vote with complete confidence. This is this immigration defeat these really societies i hold that if you want to be good for the good should support they self respect then the decision will be heavy voter its about time to be much more united much will be one another the list still wants to give it a small piece then we go really. I suspect youll want to use any kind of violent literature my ward you would redeploy hed be with us all respect democracy that would be sitting. Well we can join the senior political analyst to al Jazeera Bob Bashara is in studio with me again m o m you know we talked about whether the israeli public were polarized or undecided about the way they feel about the politicians and why the public is so divided on multimedia is it a case of them being divided over really not having much of a choice i think it did logically or politically politically speaking there isnt much of a choice because you have one son thought right party and ones right the cowrite party and both of them have agreed to the trump socalled good of the century meaning theyve agreed to some magical formula to have long term security with occupation or a party and both of them basically have served together one number of years lets all remember that while netanyahu was Prime Minister gunns was his chief of staff of the army and they both together worked for example to bomb gas and they compete on who can bomb guys a better or who would attack iran and who would then so theyre very similar politically but personally theyre not and i think the choice for many israelis is do you avoid it for the one that is called by the other incompetent or do you vote for the one that the other called corrupts you want for corrupt Binyamin Netanyahu or do you avoid for the incompetent. Benny gantz it is the battle of the b. B. C. Or the bennies as it were and i believe that the israeli president has been speaking about the nature of the methodology of the this particular Election Campaign hes not been too pleased and yet that has been reverberated in sort of the issues such as corruption which have also been highlighted very much in this election absolutely look this is the 3rd election in a year as you reported and hence Political Parties are getting what i wanted desperate but certainly they would. They would grab whatever potential there is in order to grab even one extra. Vote even binyamin that the now has just put a video on his facebook that facebook put down and their Election Committee in Israel Commission decided to basically find him won it because he shouldnt be doing that he is so desperate to get any vote that hes even put a koran verse on his Facebook Page to attract few arab voters who basically hate him and think hes a racist and he even promised some out of electorate that he would fly them directly to mecca you know in his next 10 years as Prime Minister so all in all there is a certain desperation and i think the various Political Parties are resorting to whatever means possible to win in terms of the arab vote earlier we talked about sort of israeli parties and how important they might be in in helping to fold the next government how important is the arab israeli constituent within the politics of israel and the way that they vote there is 2 important issues or less a development over the last few days and weeks one is that they would not be joining any future government they might support a benny gantz government from the outside but they would not be joining and even if they joined there wouldnt be much of a majority because already. The bitter nor the Russian Center party thats very radical extremist parties Zionist Party has already said we will not sit in a government with the arabs or the palestinian arabs and its clear that this is not going to be possible what is surprising over the last few days and certainly today is that the percentage of those who are going to vote among the policy in our ups are higher than any year before including last the last election and potentially if they do or vote lets say 65 percent and more they could be getting 151617. 00 seats in the next parliament not only where there will be the 3rd largest bloc but if ventura lee the center right and the radical right form a National Unity government they the palestinian arabs will be the a position the official Opposition Party in israel well with just a few till the polling stations close which will see what happens in the coming hours thanks a lot more. Now theres been another setback for the recently signed agreement to all of the taliban says it wont hold talks with the Afghan Government unless theres a prisoner swap a condition of a preliminary deal with the u. S. Was exchanged thousands of prisoners but the Afghan Government says it wont make the release of captives a precondition of talks with the taliban. Now al jazeera has cameras have been allowed on a tightly controlled government organized visit to northern 1000000 law where the army denies a Genocidal Campaign against the rohingya 3 quarters of a 1000000 of the 1000000 Muslim Minority were forced to escape to neighboring bangladesh 2 and a half years ago florence lu reports now from a township in the Northern State of rakhine. We are heading into restricted territory foreign journalists require commission to visit the northern part of Rakhine State this is where myanmar Security Forces launched a brutal crackdown against the mainly Muslim Minority in august 2017 soldiers and but a small but were accused of raping killing and setting fire to homes the buddhist majority myanmar government said it was responding to attacks and killings by an armed group called the salvation army. At the Uns Highest Court myanmar has denied charges of genocide and has been ordered by the International Court of justice to prevent further violence while the case is being heard. On this tightly controlled highly choreographed trip the myanmar government tries to show that all is well here 8 in village after village brought to meet journalists in classrooms under the watchful eye of government mind ins on camera that has seemed scripted or we have 3 communities here living like a family thats why i dont think we will be affected by conflict off camera they were only slightly less reticent telling us they feared violence could flare again it was impossible to speak to anyone without being overheard by police in another village we were made to see government cash being handed out to. Local administrators say its to help the villages rebuilt the damage holds this mosque still hasnt been repaired more than 2 years after the latest campaign of violence against the daughter and you can see all around as clear evidence of destruction by fire this place of worship would have served the people of this community who at one point numbers around 5000 people now there are only 200 living here around to 3 quarters of a 1000000 to bangladesh and remained there. When who do not think repatch aeration is a fallujah because as you know we have 2 Reception Centers and we have a transition camp we are always ready to receive them we even plan to open kindergartens many Rights Groups say conditions in myanmar dont guarantee a safe return for the remainder of the last attempt to repack 3000 refugees from bangladesh in august failed because through him they refused to return saying they feared further attacks if they did the myanmar government wants them to accept alternative identification documents which rights activists say deprives them of their rights. That. Of myanmar government. What they are doing they are forcibly degrading their citizenship status. So. Willing to be degraded. The rohingya have little to return to they face government restrictions on travel employment even Family Planning many doubt the situation will change anytime soon at a time like this the job of leadership is trying to control it instead with the civil and military leaders are fanning its. You know this kind of populist way to get electoral support is a very disgraceful thing until then the rohingya will remain one of the worlds most persecuted minorities lawrence lee aljazeera mom daughter how cheap Rakhine State. A siege of the philippines Shopping Center has ended after hours of negotiations. Police tackle the gunman shortly after he released 30 hostages then walked out of the von bulow was in the way he says throughout the negotiations pleas for actually meeting his demands. For most of his demands was to talk to members of the press and so all this time all the 10 hours of this ordeal he was on video chat with both the police and members of the press he was asking questions from journalists he was showing that the hostages were safe and were alive he was also showing that he was carrying a hand grenade so there was a real possibility or real danger of things turning bad but i think the turning point was when his bosses held a News Conference also one of his demands and they apologized to him and then they said that they were willing to resign from their posts and i think that was a turning point because a couple of hours after that and after the mayor of this city said one city which is a suburb of manila talked to the gunmen he walked out of the mall together with the hostages and he surrendered. Iraqs Prime Minister designate tuss withdrawn his candidacy a month after is appointment deepening a political crisis set off by months of mass protests. As politicians were obstructing as efforts to form a government. Failed to approve his cabinet for the 2nd time in a week. To be the thought of. I tried by all possible means to save iraq from drifting to the unknown and to solve the Current Crisis but during negotiations i face and many obstacles that are irrelevant to the issue of the homeland and its interests i swear to god i didnt surrender and i didnt put my own interests above the country regrettably some parties were negotiating for their interests without paying heed to National Issues the evil of the biggest state in the democratic president ial campaign in the us voters in 14 states will decide on super tuesday who they want to run against donald trump in the ellen fisher house austin texas. We are going to win the democratic primary attacked by. Well you have died the 1st School Nominee contests are over the attract big fields heavy t. V. Advertising and Media Attention but they provide just 5 percent of the delegates super tuesday is super important a 3rd of the delegates and offer a real test of Public Opinion from north to south coast to coast and beyond california has moved its primary up to join the super tuesday when you take that and the other states and added to the already rich delegate count available here in texas there are 1357. 00 delegates up for grabs thats almost a 3rd of the entire total so a good super tuesday gives the candidate the 3 ms media money and momentum. Ringback in short this will bring clarity to the democratic race for president we have very rich delegate states like california and texas that are going to be hugely important and we kind of need to know whats going to happen in those states as well as the alabama and other smaller states to kind of get a sense ability about whether what were seeing in those early states is reflective of a general sense ability this super tuesday also throws up Something Different its the 1st time Michael Bloomberg will appear on the ballot little class kid who built a Global Company from scratch the former new york mayor has bombarded the airwaves with ads spent millions of dollars on this campaign this will be the 1st test of his electability the strategy that mayor bloomberg is putting into place is a very unorthodox one and super tuesday is really going to tell us whether he is going to have the support nationwide even given spending half a 1000000000. 00 so far to win the nomination a candidate has to win 1991 delegates no one can seal the deal on super tuesday but a good performance certainly move someone farther along the road on the number of. Candidates will drop out pretty common sense of how the ability to produce the nominating process goes on till june to raise wages but democrats will be hoping they can name the person wholl take on donald trump in november long before that.
