kurds wanting to saying that they agreed on a deal to go back to positions they held before two thousand and fourteen that is of course when the fight against isis started what's interesting is that

pakistanis are doing everything to their utmost. prisoner of the arm the family spent five years as hostages of the taliban linked network the united states gave pakistan and ultimatum if they didn't act on urgent intelligence it would send in their own troops to bring the hostages home the pakistani government's cooperation is a sign that it is honoring america's wish that to do more to provide

searching. high profile people keep coming here but this isn't benefiting us they're just talking about their views they're not actually doing anything. for frustration is a code in the north where people surrounded the president when he visited last week they demanded the release of what they see as political prisoners and concrete action on ensuring justice after the wall. by to palace it is a little protestors he is willing to discuss their concerns but comments from him and leading government figures that war heroes would never be tried drew that operatives attention i note with concern their use of rhetoric about war heroes never being brought to trial and. this seems to me to muse replacing the target of transitional justice how come to believe him issues by suggesting that it is a generally anti security agenda and also by forgetting that no one who has committed violations of human rights or the laws of war deserves to be called a hero digraph added that such a promise could

these pictures are from germany and this is what it's look like in switzerland now both places where we saw this rather large amount of snow were in the mountains and the snow is certainly very welcome and the same system also brought us some very strong winds that helped to clear away some of the smorgon pollution from the northern parts of italy so this is still is very welcome trouble it's a little bit too active for my liking just sinking its way down into the southeast and as it does so it's giving us some very very heavy downpours some places could see over sixty millimeters of rain from this system that's enough to give us a problem with flooding it's also working its way down towards the coast there of turkey and as it does say it could well give us some very severe thunderstorms a very large hail and some very gusty winds could bring us a little bit of damage so this is there is going to gradually work its way down into the southeast as we head through the next few days as well and as it does so gradually begins to peter out but i think it's juror in the day today where there's the greatest risk of seeing a little bit of destruction from this storm behind it

we cover this region better than anyone else working for us as you know it's very challenging they believe but they believe because you have a lot of people that are divided on political issues we are we the people we live to tell the real story so i'll just mend it is to deliver in-depth journalism we don't feel inferior to the audience across the globe. it's everywhere the safety and fitting in

losing seats chancellor angela merkel's party came out on top but has yet to form a government evolution dominic came reports from berlin. as germany's newly elected members of parliament gather here in berlin to take their seats in parliament they do so at a particularly nebulous time in german politics because for the first time in many many years openly far right politicians have won seats in parliament from the party called the alternative for germany or a f d more than ninety of them with seats in parliament the issue for the f.t. will be can they be a coherent cohesive united force in parliament already one of the f.t. is former leaders has said she will not take her seat alongside her colleagues we should say her former colleagues the f.t. is in opposition because nobody else will work with it also an opposition on the social democrats with one hundred fifty more than one hundred fifty seats and the left. party of former communists mostly well they have sixty nine seats they

christian democrats with more than two hundred forty seats still the largest party in parliament even though they lost many seats in the election while also there would be the free democrats or liberals with eighty seats and the green party with sixty seven seats but can those three parties thrash out their differences and find an agreement they're trying to do that the talks they're holding right now in this building just across the street from parliament they're trying to talk through these issues right now the question will be how do they bridge the gaps between them they were

world football leagues homan al-jazeera. major league baseball fans have been waiting all year for this game one of the world series gets underway on choosey with l.a. dodgers hosting the houston astros this is used his first appearance in the world series since two thousand and five and they'll be hoping to fare much better after being swept by the chicago white sox for nothing twelve years ago the dodgers on the other hand are seen as the slight favorites heading into the series having won the pennant a total of six times so far but this is the first time they've reached the world series since nine hundred eighty eight ellie's clean kershaw will be starting pitcher for game one you know i think. they meant a lot more and chicago were saying we get to go world series that's a special thing but now you know we were a foot in the switch a little bit and we're trying to figure out how to win four games and you know after the season's over look back on a than hopefully you know have a world series trophy to celebrate but you know we'll wait till the reflection stuff so after the season and. it's one of the most special things going to win that night and then thinking about we're going to the world series in just a few short four years ago where we were going on the last day of the season and it was like thank goodness that the season's over with now baseball may have its home in the united states but is also flourishing outside its heartland the netherlands are twenty two times european champions and two finishes just behind the traditional powers of the world baseball classic suggests that the docs are on the rise pole reese reports from in the netherlands. most always in baseball might be on the world series but in this small town the focus is firmly on the future. the netherlands is a successful outpost of this all-american sport the national team has a hard core of holland born players boosted by talent from dutch caribbean islands like curacao where baseball is in the blood we represent the netherlands but also we represent curacao i think. i have it as a mixed feelings because my dream was always going to the major leagues since i didn't make it i started thinking playing with a national team here and i've been going into the olympics up with a world championship so i played tournament i never dreamt of playing so you don't have only to make it to the major leagues to live out of baseball but you can play for the national team here and also megan and i would like the loss of a limb pick baseball after two thousand and eight was a blow to countries like the netherlands its reinstatement is a big chance for them to step up now baseball isn't and i just spoke in the netherlands but they do have major league is in the national team the dutch have all sight batted well above their average with two fourth place finishes in a row at the world baseball classic now in the sport back in the olympics hoping they can hit even higher heights at twenty twenty. the dutch may have the best chance in the history of a medal in japan with the pedigree of players like ken lee young son currently playing in the world series with the l.a. dodgers but this is a team that has learned to slug it out without stars. as we all can that we all get along and we've been playing with each other for such a long time is feels like just being with the boys and all those guys are very excited to play in the olympics as well and i feel we have a good team to make it happen and i think we can go a long ways in the olympics and transfer medal i would say for sure. not many ambitious teams would answer no to that question but performances suggest that for the dutch it may be more than just hits and. all race al-jazeera who fought in the netherlands. i don't think scandal that hit the world's most famous dog sled races escalated it was revealed last week that four dogs had tested positive to the pain reliever tramadol
