Getting hundreds of thousands of people passion fled the violence in syria many others stayed behind what do we know about that the humanitarian situation across the country. A very delicate a very tough one syria has been covered extensively over the last six years the syria that we know extensively this war i sell syrian army but theres also another syria with sometimes tend to be overlooked the syria of those whose lives were shattered work by war cities that were changed by the conflict those left with nowhere to go but also the vulnerable the children of syria dying of hunger as were going to see in this report i would like to warn our viewers other our report contains some very. During scenes. Meet a baby has only a glimpse of life was in a war torn syria born a month ago in besiege east and she suffered a severe case of monetization admitted to a local clinic doctors trying to save her but it was too late and on sunday. Died. Yes this is our fifty round of siege basic health and Nutrition Services we are facing many cases of among the truth we are understaffed but our biggest problem is that we cant get medicine and nutrition to save the children seven month old Hussein Mokhtar is another facing mandatory. We understand he has developed Many Serious Health Conditions and needs immediate treatment but doctors and charities are struggling to get him the right food and medicines if aid is delayed many like her saying may not live very much longer. So that is the how to lead we have serious cases here life threatening you know many children are suffering from malnutrition. Panicking parents are rushing to the few hospitals still operating in east and. When they get there they find hospital staff struggling to cope and its not only the children who are affected most pregnant women in eastern are also under nourished and could face life threatening Complications International aid organizations have been asking for free and continued access to mislead areas like is that something the Syrian Government with jacked saying those areas are not safe and although the u. N. And many countries have accused the government of starving people into submission no steps have been taken to under siege which is whitening the lives of hundreds of thousands of people. The u. S. Secretary of state has made a surprise visit to afghanistan Rex Tillerson has met with the president and chief executive in the capital kabul its his latest stop on a tour that second in riyadh and. With us in the studio patty kohain at this point we didnt know anything about this visit did we if fact for a great chunk of time today nobody knew where Rex Tillerson was you know it was like this amazing game were playing wheres rex and doha its not that big of a country it was silence and this doesnt happen were told at eleven am local hed be doing a event with Embassy Staff he wasnt there of course we cant report this because this would create panic heres what happened we were told off the record on background hes going to baghdad but cant tell anyone for security reasons and so thats what we were all expecting them to usually do that weve seen leaders just show up in countries that are dangerous but usually they dont lie about whats going to happen so what happened is the reporters are traveled with tillerson were told me to for forty five in the morning today local time we cant tell you where were going and so they got down there in this morning and were told oh were going to afghanistan which cant tell anyone get on the plane like that was a smokefree they literally smokes are ok yeah so he lands in afghanistan ok that happens sometimes they sort of mislead or they just disappear and we dont know but and usually they wouldnt let the press tell anyone where he was until he landed back in doha so even though theyre painting this picture that afghanistan is going to be on the right track think about this they thought the security situation was so bad that they couldnt announce that he was in the country at all while he was there much less when he was in the plane back this is after what happened to to secretary of defense mattis when when he went to afghans that was just a matter of weeks ago he landed at the airport some rockets were hit hit the airport no serious injuries but its obvious that they learned lessons from that but the fact that they didnt let us know he was in afghanistan until he was back in doha i cant say that all the years ive been covering washington ive ever seen anything like that so what does this tell us. About the trumpet ministrations approach to afghanistan and how it differs from the Obama Administrations approach and whether whether the trump approach to afghanistan is going to work well in that is the big question trying to. Do Everything Different than obama what hes done in afghanistan is loosen up the restrictions a lot of people in the military before would tell you they felt micromanagement of the Obama Administration basically commanders in the field have more authority to launch air strikes to worry less about civilian casualties to put it that way but added four thousand troops asking nato for more troops so this is not a dramatic change we didnt see the Obama Administration put a great deal of emphasis on diplomacy having the negotiated settlement with the taliban and its no different in this administration the only difference is the state department has been gutted of most of its Senior Leadership including the person who was responsible for the afghanistan pakistan strategy so its not clear that diplomacy high up there on the list theyre not talking even about a military victory anymore they just want the taliban to know that they cant win either ok so towsons back in doha hes going to fly back in the same direction again tomorrow to go to pakistan try to wreck a frequent flyer miles out the words at whats he going to tell pakistani leaders particularly when it comes to to afghanistan well you know this is a truck administration that has been very vocal critic critical of the pakistani government weve heard that before but this has been different theyve been really harsh and this is where the confusion comes from they had a big row with the Pakistani Foreign minister was there and according to the u. S. Side they gave pakistan a list heres a menu of things that we want you to do to fight counterterrorism more than youve been doing the next day i had an on the record lunch with the Pakistani Foreign minister and said ok what did they tell you you need to do and his answer was nothing that in give us anything to do and i thought at the time but how are you ever going to be able to say hey look we did a b. And c. And he said they didnt tell us what that anything needed to be done so this is going to be incredibly contentious you see the trump of ministration sort of plane a little bit of the pakistan versus india. Youve been making very nice lately trying to send a message to pakistan so it is going to be very difficult maybe at times but he is back and we know now we know where the secretary of state you and i know that well be talking again at this time tomorrow many thanks indeed. Still to come on the program the ro hinge a crisis the focus of a meeting of donor nations in geneva well tell you more. Look at how japan could soon be moving ahead with major changes to its decades old pacifist constitution. And take a look at this time i go keeper poor guy the hard way that you should never celebrate too early here comes. The. Boys ball but for a little later. The leader of spains catalonia region has been invited to the National Parliament for talks on thursday the invite comes after colonias Regional Government said that it would convene a session of parliament to discuss moves by madrid to take control of the regions institutions on friday some m. P. s in madrid will vote on whether to impose direct rule once that is were isnt approved the Central Government could install a representative to govern the region. Is that what we make of this invite then the tasha. Well its certainly very significant because it is the first time that the catalan president carlos moore has been invited to madrid for talks its something that he has certainly complained about in the past he has said the madrid wasnt open to dialogue what we dont know is whether or not praised the man has actually accepted this invitation and whether he will accept this invitation all we know is that senators in madrid have invited him to come and explain his objections to article one hundred five that is the article which madrid will use to impose direct rule on the region now in terms of whether or not we might expect any breakthroughs on thursday when that invitation has been given to its hard to tell we know that the catalan m. P. s here will meet that day to try and discuss the situation but what weve seen really over the last few days is both sides really hardening their positions madrid is intent on imposing the storage room because it says you simply cant have part of the country which just decides off its own back it wants to break away and then on the other side you have those processing leaders who say that they will not accept direct rule from madrid so its not going to be easy for madrid to impose direct. I think thats something of an understatement i think nobody believes that it will be easy even those in madrid itself i mean youre talking about madrid wanting to dissolve the parliament sack ministers imposes control on the Regional Police maybe a Regional Television television station and in all of those institutions youre going to have people who simply oppose the idea of being told what to do directly by madrid theyre going to come up against a lot of opposition on the other hand its really worth noting that there are many people in this region who simply do not want to breakaway who disagree with those who are pushing for session they say that they are pleased that madrid is taking this stand. Maybe they should have done so before because they want to regain control of this region and restore order because theres a lot of concern here over the impact that this crisis is having on the region both economically and politically rather tasha many thanks indeed Natasha Potter there live in barcelona troops in the philippines celebrating the end of fighting with ice linked fighters in morocco we earlier on monday the government announced the end of its five month battle against the multi armed group it captured the Southern City in may ransacking banks and shops and taking civilians hostage the defense minister says that the final forty two fighters were killed in a gun battle with his troops. In the one building. There was a five firefight so they were finished no more on the inside. Despite that defeat of pro i still find the threat from other groups remains the dogon reports. We traveled to mugging down a province in the southern philippines to meet one of its most controversial fighters. Why didnt doc is the commander of the elite unit of the more islamic liberation front it is the biggest armed group in Southeast Asia that is negotiating with the Philippine Government for greater autonomy for the more people in the south. This is legalized in march a place which has suffered violent conflict for decades why he didnt talk and his men are taking us to a New Territory they recently took over from pro isis and. We dont want what happened to happen here. But it takes more than just the m. I. L. F. The combat i see here we need cooperation from the military and even local government officials. That are always a city in mindanao that has recently been recaptured by the Philippine Military from a nice little inspired group called the mounted months of incessant fighting has left ruins and hundreds of thousands of its people displaced the m. I. L. F. Says i saw brings with it and idiology they called fitna a radical set of beliefs they say that pits muslims against each other this has created divisions not just among fighters here but also family members some of these men admit they have fought against their own relatives fighters of the more islamic liberation front had to swim through the lays in order to get through these trenches this area was the last stronghold of a pro i saw a group it was a close quarter combat that lasted for seven hours. These pro eisel fighters belong to the bank some are Islamic Movement a group that broke away from the m. I. L. F. When peace negotiations broke down in two thousand and eight all this radical element radical group. Where there is failure in the Peace Process and then radical elements from outside trying to exploit this is. Why did the south almost broke away from the m. I. L. F. Out of frustration he has been the fighting for over thirty years he says and has seen too many negotiations fail. Is most painful he says when he has to fight his own.
