refugee. women that i'm talking. off that refugee. life force from the prison camp you saw. how you. treated on the. complex plea crowd moment that refugee. he poured in you poorly and immigration. there may be that refugee board they put in repeated use like for. even that situation that. the peaceful protests only wartime one hundred or more nine point. where. you know people only. i think i think that. you know big government military and government. response people want to talk to jared mckenna he's an australian pasta and justice activist who just came back from an asylum and joins us on skype from sydney reports now that all the refugees have been moved from the camp one of the you've been hearing jared about the police operation to forcibly remove them they said. a good number of ticks this morning for men they mean credibly skated literally hiding under tight and in the toilets as a military police moved in to bali removes the bottles now they feel that they too small window. where they can dream of freedom has closed again i'm not a stand john of the group of you and your colleagues was smuggled into the camp recently by supportive locals also have conditions did you see inside. the conditions were shocking and much like other journalists. was not in unlike others we can mean as religious leaders when we tried to leave we found ourselves found by the navy and the very refugees who were able to find safety in a strongly against safety to us as a stray and they had limited all water was cut off. it was kind of coal power was cut out and yet the horror of what was happening but the reality of the future is being frozen for over fifteen hundred days we're talking four and a half is but also the amenities been completely cut off was one reality in the other reality was inspiring compassion and caring to reach other as they tried to keep their hopes up for a future that they cannot currently say on the horizon and you're getting a sense of what sort of conditions these refugees will face in the new camp is any better than the last one. the reality of the new camps is that they're not finished we decided there and we saw the locals actually blocking roads stopping the new camp from going ahead this is a town which only has six thousand people which other proposals to six hundred of these people needing safety to go to which puts unbelievable pressure a strong leader of course it is one of the wealthiest nations in this part of the world and yet we're leaving it be on apple will note as to the normal course thing then to take responsibility of people thinking safety and even if the camps with finished which they're not even if they're in a safe location which they're not the reality is that what it means for that he's made is that of planning a site like this not necessarily in australia but anywhere where they can have a future and find freedom is again shutting because they're locked into this reality where strangely it has made them invisible push them out of sight and out of mind and they again think they're about to be forgotten by the world judge mckenna thank you so much for talking to al-jazeera thanks very much they're well this is what their strength and prime minister had to say a short time ago now i'm pleased to say in terms of man it's that the reports we have that bus loads of the people at man as leaving they're complying with the lawful directions of the pay entry authorities and moving to the alternative facilities available to them and that's as they short that's that's that is precisely what you should do if you're in a foreign country you should comply with the laws of that other country. saudi backed syrian opposition groups are agreed to form a fifteen member delegation that will

century and has been won in which people have seen decline and ruin hyperinflation corruption food shortages in what was the breadbasket of africa even the loss of its currency and rampant unemployment on every street you see young people and often well educated but without jobs they're optimistic now with reservations about one of gagra i want to hear the change of the political system from the autocratic to most. political system moon god why is seen as a man who's smart on business he's masterminded a move east meaning dealings with china and economists think he may deliver if

in straining relations with a city in just plus. it's been making music for nearly one hundred fifty years but one of the world's oldest pipe organs is in desperate need of fine tuning on the status. from one flowing i mean winds to an enchanting desert breeze you are. at our winter has broken through from turkey's through the eastern med in the event cloud pushed rain all the way down through kuwait to riyadh and qatar but the most concentrated rain was in iran and it's still there that the legacy cloud is still there i was talking to produce very much more but it indicates what's going on with the next batch of potential rain or snow it's hard dependent it normally ran around the caucasus during friday and something developing in afghanistan wasn't so much in kabul but just the north and the high ground snow seems likely to come back now by this time the sun's back out in iraq ten degrees only now in ten and then you nineteen in baghdad is a bit warmer further west with a breeze coming up from the south even jerusalem is struggling to get sixteen degrees now in the arabian peninsula is the remnant cloud must still produce a spot or two more rain it for example bahrain or qatar but see it most likely to be a dry picture and that's true for the following days vote for the most part risk of a thunderstorm possibly in the northwest of saudi but i think not the most active weather in africa is of course coming south of the sun and once more we look at south african development just off the coast which could bring substantial rain to the eastern side of south africa. the weather sponsored by qatar airways. you are making very pointed remarks when they're on line the main u.s. response to drug use and the drug trade over the last fifty years has been to criminalize or

that has developed since the weekend when the coalition talks between the other main parties collapsed and then there was a meeting for mr schultz with his senior party colleagues on the s.p.d. the

ideal situation to be living and it's called a sad comfortable. but at least said it is shelter. a number of people have been living off the donations of well wishers since the hurricane struck but
