And hollywood mourns of death of one of its film icons omar shariff. The first womens sport team to get a tickertape parade after their world cup win. A humanitarian truce between wells warring side has come into effect. But the day leading up to it was led by more fighting and airstrikes. It was the latest attempt to tackle a crisis that was attempted last last september. The coalition between arab stakes launched airstrikes against the houthi. The u. N. Warns that yemen is on the verge of total collapse. It warns that millions of people are in need of humanitarian assistance. The United Nations says both sides have given commitments to respect this cruise. With the clock ticking for humanitarian truce to begin the shooting continues. The injured sought treatment and smoke filled the skies above many cities in yemen. In taiz pro government fighters say they pushed back an attack by the rebel houthis. Sources say 15 soldiers on both sythe and one civilian was killed. In sanaa the streets are quiet but many have their opinions about the brokered truce that is to begin friday and end one week. We dont need this truce. It means that were going to start a new war. But we want to end this war with two sides. I dont like this kind of truce because we have been under the oppression of Saudi Coalition. 21 million yemenis are in need of food, water and medicine. Aid groups have had difficulty making deliveries because it is too dangerous. It is hoped that this will be the safer route to the those in need. Well be able to deliver aid to some cities that have serious conflict. But one week wont be enough time to begin tackling this humanitarian crisis. Thats why many are hoping this truce becomes permanent. Well, joining us live now via skype in new york is the president and ceo of the International Rescue committee which overseas the relief and Development Operations in over 40 countries. Thank you so much for joining us here on al jazeera. So the ceasefire has officially gun. First of all what is your groups priorities when it comes to getting aid to the people of yemen . Thank you barbara, its good to be here with you. We have a clear priority to get pharmaceuticals, nutrition and chemical supplies that are stuck in our warehouses into the hands of our staff so they can deliver them to local people who we know are in the millions that desperate for food and medicine that theyve been starved from for too long. The Security Council when asking the various sides to honor the ceasefire so they wanted rapid safe and unhindered access to humanitarian actors like your group to reach those who need it. From what youre hearing are you confident youre going to get this kind of access . I think that its too early three or four minutes into the ceasefire to talk about confidence. What i know is that with 15 Million People needing food, 21 Million People in total need of humanitarian assistance 85 of the yemeni population, the needs are huge. The weaklong pause, if it can be achieved, is a First Step Towards a minimum of humanity for the people of yemen. Of course this oneweek peace deal needs to be extended, but i think there will be the opportunity to bring aid to people who are literally not knowing where their next meal is coming from. Weve been saying for over a year in a country where people dont know where their next meal is coming from is really a recipe for disaster never mind for the scale of suffering weve seen. I think therefore we need time. The response has been meager at 13 . Do you think there is enough to help the people of yemen. Is there enough to give them the help that they need. We havent been able to get access to the people of yemen and the conflict that is going on has made it very hard to raise the necessary funds. The socalled flash appeal that the u. N. Put out which was a quarter of a Million Dollars to cover the next three months was immediately vet by the saudi government. It puts an immediate effect on the u. N. To make sure that funds do reach people throughout the yemen population. They arethey need a more organized plan to help the people. In the main treatment Mainstream Media perhaps the crisis is not getting the air time that it needs. An independent Nongovernmental Organization committed to getting humanitarian aid into places where conflicts are ongoing or where refugees are fled. We work in a several countries and youre right to say that there is real fatigue at both the number of crises taking place across the world and the complexity of the crises. Western donors are finding it harder and harder to convince their own population that money needs to be spent to keep up on these humanitarian assistance pipelines going in the emerging economy there has been reticence to i think there is a really important Task Organization like the irc International Rescue committee to take counter the fatigue and say there is a real way of making a difference. Not just talking about the amount of suffering, but the difference that can be made. If you give us the space to make a difference, then we will make a difference. And the irc and other ngos have long experienced even in the mist of conflict that were preserving life and limb. In the months that youve been pushing this message about yemen, have you found that its fallen on deaf easier . How difficult has it been and continues to be to get across . The short answer is that there have been a lot more deaf ears than open ears. Yemen has been the forgotten conflict over the last few months, but i think the sad point is of the 30 or so countries that we work in there are far too many to fit into any News Headlines or any immediate news program. Whether its yemen that gets forgotten or somalia that gets forgotten or afghanistan that gets forgotten we have 30 or so civil wars driving up the number of refugees around the world are too much for the world to cope with. And our message is a very simple one. If these problems arent dealt with at the source then theyre at the Different Countries and elsewhere as weve seen in the mediterranean until there is a wakeup call for the community which is humanitarian intervention is not just important when politics goes wrong, if were not careful the degree of humanitarian crisis is going to be a source of instability, and one can see that in the middle east. And one can see that in parts of africa. Its very important that we take a chance to step up both the way we deliver aid but also the message were giving about the importance of doing so. Lets hope that this truce lasts and your organization will be able to bring aid to the people of yemen. Thank you so much for having joined us. Thank you very much, indeed. Police in the somali capital believe that seven people are dead after an attack in mogadishu. A suicide car bomb went off in a hotel in the middle of city before gunmen entered a separate hotel. E armed group hats claimed responsibility for the attacks. We have more details for you. Reporter according to somali somalis National Terrorist agency the situation in both these hotels is now under control. Moments before that somalias interior seven were killed during this i want. These attacks happened when people were sitting down. We know they were owe officials in these hotels. But these hotels are not just popular for local officials but with residents. Alshabab has upped the number of attacks throughout the month. Ramadan. And as people mr. Sitting down, those two loud explosions right at the entrance of this hotel these hotels are not far apart. Soon after that there was a very intense gunfire between the security guards of these hotels and alshabab. This comes at a time when the Somali Government has stepped up security controls, arresting anyone they suspect to be being an alshabab member or sympathizer. Now the greek Prime MinisterAlexis Tsipras is putting his political survival on the line. Well bring you live pictures where they are debating the plan. You can see theyre addressing the mps right now. Theyll give full support to the Prime Minister. Well greeces latest proposals including higher taxes and clamp down on tax evasions. Athens says it will discourage people from retiring early and seek higher help contribution from pensioners. Greece will sell off its remaining shares in a Telecommunication Company and prioritize two key sea ports. Its offering to cut 3 million from its military budget by next year. The greek governments proposal may have convinced some of its european creditors but selling it to the Greek Parliament was a tougher challenge. After all this deal looked like it was something they had already rejected. The new finance minister admitted none of this would be easy. We believe if we reach this agreement it will be a difficult one. This is why there is after 61 of greeks vote of no in the referendum. Outside many thousands of greeks who voted no to more austerity gathered yet again with the sense of betrayal and anger. Pensions are going to be reduced radically. Theyve already been cut. When the state doesnt have any more money theyre going to cut mentions even further. Whats happened now is a big mistake, a huge one. The proposals they put forward are devastating and the only realistic option is to leave the e. U. Most of these people are dead against anything that has reappeared in the latest proposal. The latest proposal seems more drawnen draconian than the last one. And telling them that there would an deal in the future seemed to be a cruel illusion. On saturday germany where it really matters theyre going to take some convincing. It is the most substantial program weve seen so far. We must acknowledge that. There is a lot of skepticism over the question of how easierlyseriously it is met. Theyll pour through every paragraph of the proposal. In athens their verdict will be greeted with mixed emotions. Simon mcgregor wood, al jazeera athens. Combating the drought. The new measures taken by pilots in thailand to bring on muchneeded rain. Reporting from srebrenica. And we will have more on djokovic later in the program. First, new stumbling blocks in the way of Nuclear Deals as negotiators gave themselves another line of extension. Meetings have been taking place trying to deal with the final sticking points that are stopping for now, a deal taking place. Those meetings took place between the Iranian Foreign minister and u. S. Secretary of state as well as the e. U. s high representatives in foreign policy. We didnt get a proper read out of what was discussed or achieved, but they came out on the balcony here and from quite a distance, they shouted questions at mr. Zariff. Will we get a deal today. He didnt think that was likely. Will we be here over the weekend . He said yes that was probably likely. Slow progress if any progress in these talks and this is the day of yet another deadline, the interim deal with iran is supposed to expire. So if they cant get a deal it looks likely that its going to be extended again. Its almost 20 years since the massacre of thousand was muslims through srebrenica. Her husband, two sons and two brothers were killed in 1995. She told me how the streets are virtually empty. Like her more muslim residents who werent killed fled to other parts of the country. But she returned 13 years ago and shes determined to stay despite people implicated for the massacre are still at large. If people like me didnt return it would put the future of bosnia into question. So he came back to my family home to live out the memories of my families and my loved ones. Thousands are buried just down the road from her home. Every year fresh graves are added to the huge burial site, but its not hard to find People Living in this area who not only deny the extense of the crimes of 20 years ago but reject the label of genocide, which has been accepted by the United Nations. In the town of srebrenica itself the bosnian flag flies. But this bosnian serb official said that attending anniversary events is out of the question. I understand the feelings of everyone who has not found the remains of their loved ones. There are such families on both sides. I think a large number of those families are ready to look at the future, and the problems that happened here during the commemoration that come from outside. This bosnian academic agrees with him. Sometimes they use and mention as if its not in bosnia as if its a separate entity that is kind of, you know exists in vacuum from bosnia. Genocide in bosnia started in 1992 as they are proving in the trials. So the latest victims to be identified are brought to their final resting place. But the share grief of thousands cutting across the generations is made worse by the pain of denial. Al jazeera.

Debating new proposals aimed at getting a third bail out and averting a possible exit interest theexexit from eurozone. Its an organization. A factory that was doomed if it was not for the ingenuity of its works. It went from Building Materials like grout and acrylics to making environmental friendly soaps and cleaning products.

They are now sold in several european countries. With a label proudly stating made by workers who refuse to fall into unemployment and depression. In 2011 they had effectively lost their jobs even though never officially fired. What happened here is telling about how things went wrong in greece. There is often a fine line between personal interest and business. The owner of the factory, and thingsshut down. It was a shock for this man. He came to work to find the doors locked and management gone. Of course it was a surprise. We were still working. The boss knew what was happening and she planned and took all the money and left us without paying us. Were earning less but we dont have bosses any more. Decisions are now taken collectively. They dont want to be asked about management any more. Cut this word out of your question. Its a business, and we have to learn that no one takes the decision alone. Were all bosses. Were all equals.

Deaths are down from the height of the epidemic, which has claimed more than 11,000 lives. But throughout the region there are still about a dozen new cases a week. Response and recovery are so intertwined. You have to get Health Services back in place if there is going to be trust in those who are learning. Er. The panic of ebola has largely gone away. The fear was that the war had become complacent. The u. N. Says improving water roads, and other infrastructures is also key in Recovery Efforts and this fledgling democracy which has seen the gdps plummet. Complaints about corruption and transparency and accountability will also be necessary. The path forward from recovery just as the path for fighting ebola itself is going to have to involve engaging communities more.

Two years ago the meet industry was scrutinized that the pork was mixed with chemicals as well as its beef. Expired meat found its way into food served by mcdonnells, burger king and starbucks.

The farm trains them and provides the crops for them to tend until the end of the season in december. Garment worker visits every week with her family.

Its becoming more commercial with big businesses investing millions of dollars in ecological agriculture. Buts not about earning a profit for those tend to go community farms like this one.
