So just bring us up to toda uph what is going on, bernard . Reporter at the moment the area around the consolate has been sealed off by police. Its a fortress like building on top of a hill surrounded by a suburb of streets, Forensic Teams are now searching the area and we believe that one of the two gunmen that attacked the u. S. Consolate is still on the run. Somewhere. There was a woman and a man that only fire the woman was wounded and returned fire and sought shelter in a house and has been arrested. The man remains on the run. They opened fire on a Police Checkpoint building near the consolate. There is very little that two gunmen tack a fortress like building in istanbul could hope to achieve apart from perhaps injuring Police Officers or earning a lot of publicity. And so that incident is still ongoing at the moment. Certainly it does sound very brazen, doesnt it . Any response from the government so far . Reporter no response from the government so far. We are also obviously looking at the second incidents which was at the Police Station in the far in the asian side of istanbul. Now there there was a box explosion overnight about 1 00 this morning. We now understand that one and then this morning as Forensic Teams were searching the scene, somebody opened fire, attackers opened fire on that Forensic Team. Two of those attackers were killed and we now just from been told that a Police Officer was also killed in that shootout this morning. So the bomb attack overnight injured at least seven people. One critically. But this morning a shootout on a Forensic Team examining the scene, one Police Officer and two attackers killed in that shootout. Bernard, did you get the impression that there was some coordination here . Any indication that that is true . Reporter no. Its very early to say. I mean, there were two very different incidents really. First of all, just two gunmen attacking the u. S. Consolate as i say, not much you could hope to achieve attacking such a heavily fortified building. A building built with security at the forefront of the construction. Not much two gunmen could achieve attacking it. The incidents on the asian side very different a huge bomb explosion leaving a large crater, destroying parts of the building. Followed by a shootout this morning. Nobody has claimed responsibility for either of these incidents so far. Okay, bernard something, well leave it there. This is a developing story.

What that means here in indonesia is that onethird of children under five years old are stunted. Thats according to world bank report. But what that means is that they are not developing properly. Many are worried that that could have implication on his this countrys future. And thats something the world bank has been pushing the indonesian government to take seriously. In terms of prosperity you are not making use of the potential of like close to 40 of your population, so its as simple as that.

Stephanie deck, al jazerra, western java. Well, marie is with us now in london and marie, you are head of hunger at save the children, just looking at those images there, they are absolutely horrific, arent they . What other countries are face this is problem . Yes, thank you very much. Well, unfortunately this isnt a problem that just affects indonesia. Globally 161 million children are stunted. And every year 3 million children die from mal malnutrit. If we are thinking about countries with the largest number of malnourished or under nourished children india is at the top of the list, closely followed by pal stan, china and indonesia in fifth place. I was trying to get my head around the idea of malnutrition, the definition is you are not getting enough . I am assuming this is link today positive, or you ared topovertye wrong type of nutrition, what is the biggest problem. Its a mix of all sorts of things. As you say, its not getting the right nutrients which leads to macro nutrients deficiencies, they are not getting enough vitamin a, sync, iron, they become deficient in these really essential nutrients, they are not getting enough calories, they are underweight and they need these calories to grow and be strong. And then also if their environment isnt right for them. They are not living in a clean environment, if they dont have access to clean Drinking Water or sanitation and this can be very problematic as they pick up bugs and worms and further exacerbates the problems. The scenes that we are looking al its very clearly linked to poverty, you can see that for yourself. How is malnutrition springable in is it preventable . It lab out absolutely is preventable. Many countries have shown. Peru has seen rapid rates of reduction in malnutrition. Because the government and Political Parties in ma. Pat f. rue has taken a leadership role in the area. They have coordinated all the Different Things that need to be involved. Civil society, government, academics. Of the private government coming together to work on this issue and coordinated different sectors, education, health, agriculture, all coming together to work on this issue. So many countries have shown that it is possible but we do need Political Leadership and we need investments in the right kind of nutrition intervention. Very quickly, i mean, a lot of countries that are dealing with malnutrition, has it always been a problem for them or is this hey new problem . Could it be down to the fact that eating habits have changed . Farming habits have changed . Have you seen a pattern develop . We are seeing different trends in mall knew trining fox, many years countries were just dealing with under nutrition and, this is now becoming we are seeing countries are dealing with many types of malnutrition, so not just under nutrition, but micro nutrient deficiencies and also overweight and obesity. Many countries are dealing with these different types of malnutrition all at the same time. So countries are facing a very complex issue that they need to solve.
