Home land and encouraging banks to lend more money. Saudi Coalition Air strikes have targeted a military base near yemens capital sanaa. Aerial bombardment ceasefire is due to start at 20 gmt on sunday and fighting on the ground hasnt stopped. Osama ben javads story. Four months of fighting, the airport is now under the control of progovernment fighters. It is after taking the strategic Southern City from the Houthi Rebels that the saudis announced a ceasefire called by the deposed president , abd Rabbu Mansour hadi. The goal of the new truce is to help lift the siege on cities and reach those areas with much needed humanitarian aid. It is also another opportunity for the houthis. The saudis say the houthis are out of touch and coalition at positions on taizz on friday but a residential area was also hit. Dozens were killed. Houthi activists uploaded this video which appears to show injured women and children. Al jazeera cannot verify the authenticity. Yemeni military and prohadi militia, we want to build a modern civil state for us and our children. Back in yemen the signs are everywhere. Journalists are trying to document the damage. Aid agencies have welcomed the brief pause but are calling for a ceasefire to reach those who need aid. The situation is very dire. Those who need urgent humanitarian assistance, all Sectors Health care, quarter food, shelter and all the rest so we desperately need a resolution to the conflict. Reporter whichever side prevails it will be left with a yemen that is tattered and exhausted. Osama ben javad, al jazeera. Doesnt think the humanitarian pause will last the full five days. Its very unlikely considering the past two ceasefires the first one held for five days and at the end of the fifth day yemen witnessed a lot of air strikes and bombardment and the second one air strike the ceasefire was announced to kind of catch the houthis offguard and to capture the city of aden. In the past few weeks the Saudi Led Coalition have made a lot of advancements in yemen they have managed to make lot of advancements in operation golden arrow, they bombed an electricity station unfortunately they hit the residential city right next to it that has technicians living there with their families so there are reports of 35 to 100 people being dead there with numerous other injuries ranging in the hundreds. So it seems that the ceasefire is a way to calm the media down and to kind of distract away from this attack that was directly aimed at civilians women and children. Strategically speaking i cannot see the coalition taking this attempt. Unclear who carried it out meanwhile, the turkish army has launched more strikes on the turkkurdish Workers Party pkk. In Northern Iraq the headquarters hit the headquarters of the pkk. Disoardownerdishoordzeina khodr reports. Turkish officials are not phased and talk about a long term fight. Translator whenever we see a decrease or vanishing of the threat, of course we will make a valuation. In the border town of surk suruc on monday, a lot to do with the battlefield in northern syria. The government here is concerned about i. S. I. L. Threatening Syrian Opposition groups in their strongholds in aleppo province. The growing strength of syrias kurds. Syrias kurds or the ypg linked to the pkk turkey says it will be a red line if kurds create a state in northern syria. Officials even blame u. S. Air strikes in helping kurds gain ground against i. S. I. L. Now to address turkeys concerns. Translator turkey doesnt wand the ypg to take more territory. It withdrew its support but will not last forever. Turkeys fear is that syrian kurds could drive out opposition from aleppo and could control the border town of killus. It is no doubt turkey back syrian rebels, long time demand for safe zone will eventually emerge. Our aim is to get rid of the i. S. I. L. Threat in syria and iraq. After that the safe zones will be formed naturally. Reporter but this will come recently conducted raids against hundreds of suspected pkk and i. S. I. L. Simple thighsers. There could be attempts odestabilize turkey from within. Zeina khodr talk us through whats been happening there . Reporter well, this is really the the last last stretch of territory between turkey and syria, over the last few weeks i. S. I. L. Lost a lot of territory to the syrian kurds. We are in the turkish town and the people of this town are quite worried. This has been the reality for a year and a half. You could actually see the turkish flag just a few meters from the i. S. I. L. Flag but there were no incidents along this border. But two days ago turkey declared war on i. S. I. L. And i. S. I. L. Has attacked Turkish Military posts a few miles from here. This Border Crossing has been closed and you can see a wall behind me but a few hundred meters down this road, its open territory. You can actually see i. S. I. L. Fighters digging trenches, be preparing forces preparing for possible fighting in the near future. So we now see a clear shift in turkish policy. But turkey didnt just declare war on i. S. I. L. It also declared war on the pkk. The kurdistan Workers Party. Talking about that declaring war on the pkk it seems that the Coalition Partners are distancing themselves from that action. Reporter yes, at the end of the day the utle is in a very difficult position, it lists the pkk as a terrorist organization, but it has been the kurds. The kurds have proven to be reliable partners. Now, especially here in syria the coalition has been providing air cover to syrias kurds the ypg force turkey considers the ypg an offshoot of the pkk. It did condemn pkk terrorist actions in turkey when it killed two policemen in revenge for the suruc bombing. But at the same time, its calling for restraint and a very important line coming from an u. S. Official saying the air strikes, turkish air strikes against pkk is not connected to the increased cooperation with with the u. S. And turkey. It wants to make clear the Coalition Strategy is just to defeet i. S. I. L. But turkeys decision undoubtedly has caused some domestic opposition especially from prokurdish parties. They believe that the ruling party and president erdogan is trying to use this to gain more power and to call for early election so the situation is quite tense. Its not just security incidents. Now there seems to be a political crisis emerging. Thank you for that zeina khodr. Barack obama is to make a National Address to the people of kenya on sunday morning.
