Crime lab which is the largest crime lab in the nation and work with forensic scientists who are experts in ballistics and firearms and i specifically asked them could a civilian stop a mass shooter they told me that police only have an eighteen percent accuracy rate for hitting a live target during a live shooting the reason for that is that when youre in a life shooting situation you go into fight or flight mode you have tunnel vision your hearing is impaired time slows down your fine motor coordination is impaired so where expecting americas teachers who are by the way underpaid and under appreciated to now become the nations swat team its a really unfair ask and its a dangerous ask. Lets head to the middle east now where despite growing condemnation Syrian Government bombing continues on the rebel held district of eastern guta near damascus more than three hundred people have been killed since sunday that of the United Nations as call the situation in eastern go to hell on earth our diplomatic editor james bays will have more in a moment but first an a harder look at whats happening on the ground. There is no front line in eastern. Residential neighborhoods have become battlegrounds the Syrian Government and its allies are bombing the besieged rebel enclave into submission i look at the suburb of damascus is under attack well look i. Mean what we heard a plane overhead is the messiah landed people were torn into pieces i was with my nephew and we were both injured or i heard was the sound of an ambulance and i found myself here hundreds killed hundreds more injured the United Nations says makeshift hospitals are being hit some are now out of service there is a humanitarian crisis and there is nowhere to hide. There is no safe place i tried to convince my parents to say in the first floor of our building thinking it would be safer but they told me theres no difference because buildings are being flattened in the strikes. The government said military reinforcement to the frontlines around the besieged enclave the progovernment newspaper says the Bombing Campaign comes ahead of what it said will be a vast operation which may start on the ground at any time. The thousands of rebels there are promising to repel any advance a ground offensive will not be easy the government and its allies have repeatedly tried to storm eastern huta in the past the rebels have strong defenses and an underground Tunnel Network that they use to their advantage. For the Syrian Government and its allies a victory in history that would remove a threat to the capital the rebels are able to fire mortars into damascus at times causing casualties russia is now justifying the Bombing Campaign even though eastern should be a deescalation zone it is pointing to the presence of the fighters belonging to a Group Previously known as el nostra accusing them of using civilians as human shields and of what it calls armed provocations. Many including the un are warning the battle for eastern huta could turn into a repeat of the battle for aleppo. The battle for aleppo lasted for months there was so much suffering among the civilian population before a ceasefire deal was reached that involved a Mass Evacuation the people of eastern fear they could face the same fate.

N. Humanitarian and convoys aid aid convoys to. Areas in need particularly urgent busy areas russia had blocked previous efforts to get a resolution on a cease fire in eastern guta facing mounting criticism and bassett or vaseline the benzine has now himself called for a Security Council meeting on the situation on thursday the charter which the un has actually been discussing is in effect the constitution of the world body it begins we the peoples of the United Nations determined to save succeeding generations from the scourge of war now compare those words to the pictures from eastern guta history is bound to judge that in recent days and over the past seven years the u. N. Has failed the people of syria james pays out his era at the United Nations well to africa now a nigerian please.

Found their way home so the obvious to government issued a statement saying that at least fifty students have been unaccounted for as of the time of least that statement but said the military and other Security Services are calming the bushes trying to rescue those who fled and found their way why they actually couldnt get in now this is coming at a time when there are still up to one hundred schoolgirls kidnapped in two thousand and fourteen in chibok and now a lot of people are oppressive are strict zakk to what happened and many people are complaining as to why there was no clear statement more than twenty four hours after the attack.
