From fam ine. Thousands of South Koreans take to the streets of seoul against Anti Government protests. Three gunmen dressed in Police Uniforms have been killed in burundis capital. It is the latest incident in the african nation hit by violence over the president s third term. The government says its fighting insurgence. Catherine soi talks to some of the men who say theyre just protecting their neighborhood. Reporter when the sun sets, work begins in a suburb of burundis capital bujumbura. Piere and others say theyre protecting their homes from Security Forces and members of the Ruling Political Party youth wing, which they blame for the recent spate of random and regular killings in the city. They will defend themselves, this man says. A little earlier we met two young men. They dress like police and dig out a grenade. He says they will use this today. They p wouldnt say where they get their weapons from. Translation police have been coming to our neighborhood to arrest and kill us, but at night we go to where they are and fight them. Reporter what started as peaceful protests in april against the bid for a third term by the president has evolved into armed violence. People are being killed almost every night and bodies left in streets or in trenches. The government and opposition factions blame each other. The protests, they found another way. They tried to negotiate with the government, but you cannot negotiate with government when you are committing homicides like this one. Reporter the United Nations African Union and human Rights Groups are concerned about the killings which they all say have an ethnic dimension to them. Its a disturbing trend for those who follow burundi affairs closely, such as this lady. There were also killings following the 2010 president ial election but more people now seem to have weapons if they would decide to combine forces, the vigilane and the more organised armed groups, we could find a rebellion that is much more dangerous and sophisticated and they could gather more resources to challenge the state. Reporter the armed men told us they wont give us until the president steps down. Government forces insist that they will hand down each one of them. Many innocent people are caught in the middle the f. B. I. Is investigating the mass shooting in the u. S. State of california as an act of terrorism. There are reports that the female shooter pledged allegiance to i. S. I. L. On facebook. The agency says it is unlikely the couple were directed or ordered by i. S. I. L. To carry out this attack. Reporting from San Bernardino. Reporter a dramatic turn of events just 48 hours after a mass shooting that killed 14 people investigators now saying its a terrorism investigation. Based on the information and the facts as we know them, we are now investigating these horrific acts as an act of terrorism. We have uncovered evidence that has led us to learn of extensive planning. Obviously, weve uncovered evidence of explosives. Reporter the first picture of Tashfeen Malik, the 27yearold investigators say was the second shooter. The f. B. I. Saying a number of pieces of evidence have informed their decision on terrorism, but offered few further details of what that evidence is. The investigation is now likely to increase its scope and urgency. Despite ram pant speculation in the u. S. News media there was no evidence released by the f. B. I. That i. S. I. L. Directed the attacks carried out by Tashfeen Malik and syed farook. It is a complex case and neither of the two suspects appeared to be on any f. B. I. Watch list and nerth are criminal records in america. The f. B. I. Urged patience, saying it might take a long time to get to the real motive. Theres a lot of evidence in this case that doesnt make sense and so were trying to be very thoughtful to understand it and to make sense of it, so we understand the full extent of what we have here. Reporter officials did say they dont think this was part of any larger plot, but that will likely do little too ease the fears here the lawyers representing the suspect family say the media is paying too much attention to their religious background. There was information about the fact that his coworkers kind of made fun of him, for example, and his beard. He was a very isolated intro verted individual with really no friends that we could identify, like maybe one friend or no friends. I guess what we would say is that when an incident happens like this, when a christian goes to shoot up a planned apparenthood or an extreme catholic goes and bombs an abortion clinic, all the headlines dont say extremist radical christian, catholic, christian, just like right now every headline is saying muslim and attaching muslim to it. I think theres a tendency to take a cooker cutter paradigm of a terrorist event and impose it on a situation because that person is a muslim. The chief has come out and said that they have found no link to largeer terrorist group or terrorist cell, i think people need to listen to that and consider that. Every headline, until there is absolute clear evidence, every headline doesnt have to say muslim massacre, or muslim shooters iraqs Prime Minister is demanding the immediate withdrawal of the turkey troops. Turkey has deployed several hundreds soldiers to the sit of mosul that is under turkey control. A Training Mission has been there since last year. Imran khan. Do we know what is exactly going on . Reporter i can confirm to you that ankara said a number of troops have crossed over from turkey into the province on the outskirts of mosul. The problem seems to be is these troops have crossed over on the vision of the governor. He runs a militia up in that region which is Regional National motor bike iliceation mobilization front. This caused a row between the two countries. They have been arguing over oil revenues from the kurdish region. They have also been very angry that there are these trainers who have been invited by the kurdish and the sunnis that are living up in the north and seemingly ignoring. What one source has told me that is close to the mobilization front is that it is not this idea that you can have iranian backed militias fighting against i. S. I. L. And thats okay, baghdad are happy with that, but the minute we ask people to come and help us in our fight against i. S. I. L. Forces up in mosul, then that seems to be a problem. The Prime Minister has says that he doesnt want any foreign boots on the ground here. He said the iraqi Security Forces can deal with i. S. I. L. Themselves. That hasnt really translated when it comes to mosul and the government of mosul is saying to baghdad, we need more help and if the turks are happy to give it to us, im happy to take that help what is the commissioner for human rights are saying about the sunnis and Northern Iraq suffering a back lash. What can you tell us about that . Reporter you will see that two weeks ago the iraqis mounted a very Successful Operation backed by the u. S. State Coalition Air strikes on sinjar mountain. The mountain was cut off, two areas cut off. It was taken over the Kurdish Peshmerga forces and it was seen as a key excuse against i. S. I. L. What has happened is sunni arab families are stunned between the areas that peshmerga control and i. S. I. L. Theyre in no mans land. Ive been followed who have access and knowledge of those People Living in the area that the occur dish peshmerga and the krg government here see them as being collaborators with i. S. I. L. , they were there with i. S. I. L. Siting the Kurdish Peshmerga forces so they cant cross back. Those families say if they go back towards the identify lines they will be killed by i. S. I. L. Fighters and theyre in no mans land at the moment. There are negotiations going on to get them out. There are two main tribes in the area. Theyre trying to bring them together to get them safe passage. Im told there may well be a solution coming, but this has been two weeks now where these families have been stuck and theres at least 213 families stuck up there. That might be at least a thousand people that are stuck in this no mans land. This keeps happening in places where sunnis have been trapped between i. S. I. L. Forces and Kurdish Peshmergas families families should should say. U. N. Hkr have now commend on it now and thats why thank you. The u. N. s World Food Program says yemen is at risk of flipping too fam ine. It is now classified being on an emergency level of food and security.

It was just three weeks ago that south korea saw one of the largest protests in nearly a decade. Clearly the crowd is huge here as well. A second protest. Tell us more about what theyre upset about. Reporter one of the things theyre upset about is government reaction to their protest a few weeks ago. It got quite violent, Water Cannons were used. One of the person who was at that protest is at that hospital. Protesters are coming out to protest not just that but the issues that they felt were overshadowed back then by the violence that broke out. Those issues, labor reformss that workers feel is favoring big corporations as opposed to the laborers, as well as a government policy now to basically issue a state authored history book and do away with all the other history books that are currently being used by the schools. So many here are frustrated at what they see as a rather authorityian still. Theyre frustrated over economic realities as well. The opposition is using this to rile up antigovernment sentiment, but there is much more going on here than just anger at the government. Its really down to frustrations of what the ordinary civilians see as a win here by a very small minority over the economic policies of the country. They feel the labourors are being left behind and they want that to change they seem focused given this is the second protest. What is the mood now, since the last one turned violent . Reporter its much more subdued. There are an estimated 30,000 people here, so less. They see it as a minor victory that the police is off the street. There is a notable lack of police here and they think that has contributed to a deescalation calation. They are planning a march here. This protest is expected to go on for another few hours, but it has so far been peaceful and the protesters say they intend to keep it that way thank you for that, live from seoul.

Reporter indeed, this time around even the Opposition Coalition says its satisfied venezuelas electronic Voting System gives sufficient guarantees. But is that enough . Its not the actual voting process that is raising red flags but everything leading up to it. The top of the list is the use and abuse of states resources to tip in favor of the ruling party candidates. The socialist candidate is distributing a government subsidy benefit to Young Mothers who are being reminded that its their duty to defend the revolution with their vote. The government overwhelmingly controls venezuelans television networks, bombarding the airways with propaganda against the opposition. Ngos monitoring the campaign are also concerned the voters could be pressured at the polls. Translation im not sure that people will have to the freedom to cast their vote properly, that when they go up to the machine there wont be someone watching how they vote, that they wont be afraid of losing their jobs if they dont vote the way theyre supposed to. Reporter the president of the elector alcouncil is considered a government loyalist and for the first time no international objector groups have observer groups have been accredited except one translation we have a double responsibility which is why we are appealing for a peaceful nonviolent election and secondly, that all players commit to recognising and respecting the results of the vote.

The country is in bad place. If she continue in office she will not be able to get us out of this situation. The cards on the deck on the table are somewhat stacked against her right now.

We will continue to follow that story for you out of tripoli. A Multi National operation has freed 900 hostages held by boko haram. The hostages, including women and children, were being trained as suicide bombers and fighters. Reporter in the back of a packed truck there was relief and desperation, exhaustion too. Among women and children fleeing during an operation led by the cameroon military. Now in need of food and water. This group were among 900 hostages who had been held by boko haram fighters in different places between cameroon and nigeria. Cameroon says a Senior Member of the group was killed during the twoday operation which also left 100 fighters dead. Translation among the enemies neutralized we can count the man known as the head of operations for boko haram in the area. He led several attacks against her territory. Large amounts of weapons and ammunition and flags were confiscated during the operations. Reporter boko haram roughly translates as wednesday earn education is forbidden. Its Armed Campaign in Northern Nigeria has led thousands deaths. It has aligned with i. S. I. L. Yearly in year and has been carrying out several crossborder attacks in cameroon over the past few months. Its not quite possible at the moment to put an exact estimate on the amount of fighters on the boko haram side now, but one thing we know for certain is that they obviously lack in manpower at the moment in comparison to the numbers on the side of the multinationalal joint task force. Reporter its unclear whether any of the women and girls freed this week were among the more than 200 sowsd from their dormitoriess more than a year ago. Though freed in this latest operation will now been reunited with their families earlier in the year we visited a fisherman on a shrinking island in bangladesh.

Translation you have the anger of the current. Ive never seen the water come with such anger. It would erode away homes before, but this time it just bashed them away. Reporter this was the location of his largest ferry dock. It is the main connection to the rest of the country. The landing was swept away by the waves a few months ago leaving an already Remote Island even more isolated. With no ferry to the mainland, it is difficult for this man to find a job, even though the rainy season is over. It seems there is just not enough going on in the island economy to accommodate those with disabilities. Translation we need to get out on the boat, all the way out on the water and work with nets with others. I cant do the work without my eyes, so the boats dont hire me. Reporter after a rainy season like this one, he is worried he has to leave his home once again, but with no heating system on a house on an island where the temperature can drop below 6 degrees celsius, it is hard. And a few contacts the San Bernardino killers had in the community, tell america tonight what they know. Educated ignorant people who do those things. He was very educated.
