Well, i can tell thought the police and medical officers are telling us 79 people have been injured as a result of these eight car bombs that have ripped through various areas of the city. Five in shia neighborhoods and three in mixed neighborhoods. They have targeted mainly commercial areas and shopping districts. The death toll right now is 40 killed and 79 injured. They also said that the iraqi authorities put the blame on the Islamic State of iraq, that theyre behind the bombings. They say they have not claimed responsibility for these attacks, but weve seen this tactic from them time and time again. The idea of using car bombs to bring chaos to the streets. But it has been a very violent 24 hours here. It crossed iraq. Weve maybe 65 People Killed in mosul as a result of shelling in the last 48 hours. We had three soldiers killed when an attack was made on their convoy in ramadi in anbar province, and also this morning weve had an ambush and hostage taking also in are a maa ramadi, and students were held hostage. Why is this all happening . Why are we seeing a resurgence of these attacks . Partly to do with isil, theyve decided to go in and take over six neighborhoods in samarra, west of iraq, in the last couple of days. Weve seen more and more of these attacks and isil becoming increasingly bolder. 33 people have been killed in an attack in the democratic republic of congo. It happened on friday in the mineral rich region, the victims, mostly women, were stabbed, shot and burned in their homes. They believe the attack was part of a dispute over cattle. Katherine, this was an interethnic attack, wasnt it . Reporter thats what were hearing. What we know is that most of those who were killed were actually killedwere actually women who were killed in the church. They were in the church praying. When they surrounded the church and indiscriminately firing. Many were killed in their homes. Theyre also hearing that the army has been deployed there. You asked about the ethnic dimension to it. We spoke to human Rights Groups who say they heard this is a conflict going on over conflicts of land there. This is not the first time its happening. It happened earlier this year where 14 people were killed. The police are saying they dont know the causes. Theyre still investigating, and they have made no arrests yet. There is a wider conflict going on right now, isnt there . Yes, thats very correct. There is an ongoing conflict. The area has been troubleuble fr so many years. We have about 30 rebel groups roaming the jungle in this area. They have a process going on now. A disarmament process where the rebels are being told to surrender their arms, and many of them are coming out. But many are still really in the jungles, and there is also a military offensive thats going on. The question really is there capacity and the political good will to make sure that this side of the congo is clear of members. They have Many Political interests. Every time a rebel group is disarmed another one crops up. Its a controversial issue that has involved as well. Weve talked to many people, thousands of them are being told to go back home. But theyre saying the areas that they come from this still have rebels, and they feel unsecure. This has a multiprong approach. Everyone should be trying to secure this area of congo that has had problems for so many years. Syrian activists are reporting that the military is dropping barrel bombs over a rebel held district. And in the nearby town 12 people were killed in a missile strike. Theyve had attacks reported in hama. Reportaleppo has also been under heavy shelling. Several barrel bombs were dropped in the neighborhoods. According to reports a number of civilians including women and children have been killed. Well, a boy in syria is not just aboutthe war in syria is not just about war but its been an outbreak of polio. Reporter mohammed is just 13 years old. Polio has taken away his ability to walk. Life is not easy but his family tries to keep him smiling and moving. There is no reason to make him feel disabled. For us theyre all equal. He helps us at home washing and cleaning, and he plays, and enjoys his time with his father. The family lives in the syrian city of aleppo. The city wracked by fighting by the antigovernment opposition and Government Forces. Because of the war the spread of polio has increased. At least 90 cases in may last year. And the prognosis is not hopef hopeful. Not for polio sufferers, nor for the disabled. One place that helps is this school, a special school, set up for sir yeahs memorially and physical disabled. Were trying our best to provide them with identificational tools. Other sometimes we succeed, sometimes we fail. The United Arab Emirates has introduced compulsory military service. Thethose who finish secondary school will serve for nine months while everybody else will serve for two years. Joining us from the uae, professor of Political Science in the uae, thank you for being with us. Why has the United Arab Emirates introduced National Service . The topic has been discussed for so long. There is more or less a consensus that it is needed. I think there is positive feeling and the timing is good. The uae its been becoming difficult. You know, this country lives in a red zone and military service, compulsory National Service is definitely in order. Are there social reasons as well as military ones . We do have a Younger Generation that appears to be somewhat la lazy, attending to social media away from national priorities, maybe introducing the National Compulsory service will introduce some discipline for the youn Younger Generation. So i think the social reasoning has to do with bringing in more discipline. Its a country with small population and with a small army, and it doesnt hurt that you have a couple of thousand ready for any eventuallities. 5. 5 Million People live in the uae. But this only applies to uae citizens. 90 of the population. Thats very true. We have a very unique demographic situation. Its unusual to have its citizens as the minorities. Everything is looking okay, it doesnt hurt to form up the the situation. This is limited to the citizens of uae. So good to talk to you, professor of political viance in the uae.

The maker of indias ambassador car has halted production at its plant. The unmistakable rev of an ambassador. Its a sound that she has heard and cherished her whole life. I love my car. Growing up in india its the only vehicle her father drove. And now shes carrying on the family tradition. For me it represents memories of childhood. We spent a lot of time traveling out of town with the family. For decades it was the only car available in india, and it was used by everyone from the Prime Minister to taxi drivers. But this may be its last ambassador. Its maker announced it was indefinitely suspended operations at its plants because of financial difficulties. Its workers are owed six months salary. The company was not able to produce more than five cars a day. They were not able to meet their financial obligations. Reporter even if these problems are resolved production of this famous car may not resume. Sales have plummeted to just 120 last year. The vehicle has failed to keep up with motoring innovations and demands from consumers. We never see them on the road much.
