no-i maryam namazie and london you're watching al-jazeera also coming up nigeria deploys more troops to search for more than one hundred schoolgirls seized by boko haram. protests across italy as tensions rise in the run up to next weekend's election immigration is a key issue. and power to the people the fight for economic justice in america fifty years since it was ignited by a civil rights icon. the u.n. security council has unanimously adopted a resolution demanding a thirty day truce in syria to allow an aide it follows days of negotiations at the u.n. over the wording of the document five hundred people have been killed in seven days of syrian government attacks on rebel held east and thousands of people are trapped in underground shelters which are providing little protection against the syrian and russian rockets and. every minute the council waited on russia the human suffering group getting to a vote became a moral responsibility for everyone but not for russia not for syria not for iran i have to ask why. at least nineteen health facilities have been bombed from sunday nineteen as they dragged out the negotiation the bombs from assad's fighter jets continued to fall in the three days it took us to adopt this resolution how many mothers lost their kids to the bombing and the shelling was a notebook more go to a new school so when you visit it took us so much time to reach an agreement on the resolution because we didn't support what was in trying to be there for an immediate decision minister that. because as it stood it wasn't possible to achieve results without any concrete agreement from the warring parties in syria who can't arrive at a cease fire but this kind of i'm realistic approach will in no way have to address the humanitarian situation in syria well syrian ambassador to the u.n. accused other members of the security council of backing terrorism on your governments are preventing us from countering terrorism in our territories we didn't go and fight other countries we are combating terrorism on our own territories terrorism but it's supported by the government of your countries in the session on thursday i explained the reality of what is happening in syria the reality of the suffering of civilians as a result of the practices of armed terrorist groups i stress once again that the syrian government has taken seriously all the escalation initiatives and observe them. well syria's two major rebel groups are saying that they welcome the un resolution some relief for the siege civilians in east and go to may now get access to aid that's been blocked for months some of binge of aid is following events on the turkey syria border. i've spoken to a number of sources since the united nations security council came to this agreement a united nations source said that we've always been ready to provide aid inside eastern huta and it's been frustrating for us to know that people can see our warehouses from inside hutto they're only a few kilometers away but we haven't been able to reach them in the last five years but aid workers are saying that it is going to be tough for these aid groups to come in and provide this help because not just the syrian foreign ministry but the syrian intelligence also controls these checkpoints and in the past have stopped aid convoys and taken out medical supply that essential items that they do not want to ascend into people have cautious optimism about what has happened but they're also afraid of what is going to come in the coming hours because eastern huta has been bombarded relentlessly more than five hundred people have been killed at least twelve hospitals have been destroyed and more than two thousand people have been injured medics have been saying that the situation is desperate and critical. to the. rescuers are responding to crisis for help. thank you very much. but eastern nowhere is safe basically none of the was young so i guess you know much of this search for children who disappeared in the debris there was. never one of the children called for their father. that was so the civil defense worker says they must hurry to the basement. activists accuse the syrian government and russia for the airstrikes and shelling the suburb of syria's capital damascus has been bombarded specially hard for the last week. the only like these is from the fires which started the bombing. you are you out these children prayed in the dark in an underground shelter one of them wants the world to feel their pain her. no food no water every day you sleep on the floor my back hurts we can't bring a pillow from our house if we get out we'll get it don't you know that imagine your children. won't be to say. the well it's just safety. because you had out the floors are down the air is humid and it's called underground there are few basements in all to nearly four hundred thousand people i know that on the roofs of our size i don't know what this is our children didn't eat for two days we can't find anything else will feed them this is a male god help us thank you i syrians living in cities abroad have protested the small gatherings they reject that the fight in eastern huta is against what the government calls terrorists. but the syrian government iran and russia say the civilian deaths in our fabricated propaganda. since the united nations security council agreed to a thirty day feast why in syria aid workers say they're ready to take in the aid but people inside kuta are scared fearful of what has happened in the past in other areas might happen here again with the government tries to take as much as possible before the implementation phase kicks in some of the job it does era. on the turkey syria border. i still is claiming responsibility means that killed at least six people in yemen southern city of aden explosions targeted a military camp used by counterterrorism forces as well as the residents of abrams former governor hospital officials say three of the dead a soldiers and three civilians. i jarius president has deployed extra soldiers to search for more than one hundred girls kidnapped from their school in the town of depth mamadou bihari has called monday's abduction by boko haram a national disaster ahmed idris has more from the capital. the mood used out of shock and anger anger because the nigerian government has failed to properly explain how many kids or how many students have been taken from that college and what exactly happened there now shock in the sense that many people expected nigeria and the security agencies to learn from the mistakes of two thousand and fourteen in trouble when more than two hundred and seventy schemes go schoolgirls have been kidnapped by boko haram more than one hundred of them are still unaccounted for group of activists who've been pushing but i did in government to rescue the girls now we spoke to some of them who expressed shock and dismay that four years on the nigerian government and the nigerian security services have not learned anything from the world. before it's four years one hundred and twelve people go but only two who will come up on tuesday to realize that more schoolgirls were abducted and we're back to square one when many nigerians expected the government to beef up security around vulnerable places like schools especially boarding schools in the northeast of nigeria now in the case of she that clearly did not happen and many nigerians will be watching the government closely as a low security agency is to see whether or not these girls are rescued in the next few days or so the u.n. has removed a police unit from a base in south sudan after allegations of the sexual exploitation of women and the protection of civilians camp forty six police officers were called from the while camp and confined to base after the complaints came to light at the investigation found some members of the police unit allegedly

immigrant league party also called the northern league as address thousands of supporters in milan but they're also being met by opposition several other demonstrations in support of immigration have taken place including in the capital rome sunday gago reports. rally the crowds in milan but matteo salvini wanted the ear of the whole nation only days away from italy's problem entry elections this was the largest gathering given by the right wing populist leg up party it may have started out as a northern italian secessionist movement with a desire to separate from what it calls a backward southern region but this is italy politics here isn't a curial game since in the change it rebranded itself as the party for all italians with the same anti immigrant populous program. we want a federal more efficient country which takes care of the north and the south employment taxation immigration the league has grown up in many ways and mr really has a lot in common with the far right wing european leaders and see european union euro zone he's also against the big macro dominance over the economy the only one really going to. live is an anti immigration policies and here there are plenty of people who support that group given the refugee crisis that has had its lead particularly . in the last four years some six hundred thousand people have arrived in italy by sea but it has coincided with a tougher session and high unemployment and the infrastructure has barely been able to cope immigration rhetoric has surfed to whip up sentiments hear him pass the phrase interest them you've got to throw in this is the government has imposed this uncontrolled migration on it's unregulated and it's not fair when at the moment when we want to clean. really i want more employment less crime where will these are legal immigrants who are destroying it illegally the all over the country there is a sense of hardening attitudes in the southern city of palermo one neo fascist group came out to defend its positions meanwhile in the capital rome the fear of a return of italy's fascist past prompted five separate demonstrations railing against the agenda of the far right this is a country which has always had sharp divisions in the political scene but there is a fear that violent tensions of the past are making the return the sluggish economy has made many here feel hard done by and there is little trust in mainstream politicians to result it sunny diag or al jazeera. so i had for you on the program thousands protest against israeli threats to deport african migrants from the country. and as the winter olympics draws to a close in south korea we look at their political and economic legacy. the a. hello there we've got some welcome rain on its way to new south wales

showers there particularly on monday meanwhile towards the west it's dry for us on monday in adelaide our maximum temperature at twenty nine degrees and force in perth will be at around twenty five and here there's a chance of seeing a few showers maybe a few thunderstorms over the next day or say and that weather system that's affecting us in the southeastern corner of australia is also crossing the tasman sea and affecting us in new zealand as well so very heavy rain across the south island at the moment and that's going to be pushing its way northward as we head through sunday and into monday not quite as intense as we had through monday but still giving us some fairly lively outbreaks of rain as we head further north we can see that for many of us in japan there's a good deal of cloud got a great deal of what whether there's just this weather feature in the south the further towards the west the weather's slightly more interesting for say beijing will see the temperatures

thank the israeli society for coming on our i know that they met us they know that we are not here as migrants we came here because we have a problem on home and they understand that and we are very grateful for the opportunity we just want the government to see this to see to come and meet the people under siege if you had a migrant worker so we had a really. vivid you thought looking for us if

delta and united say they're no longer offering n.r.a. members discounted rates when asked the n.r.a. to remove their information from its website a public defender in rio de janeiro says a military crackdown on criminal gangs could be violating people's constitutional rights brazil's army has taken control of security in rio in an attempt to quell a spike in violent crime but critics say innocent people are now being unfairly targeted. as mall. it's the first weekend that military has been in charge of security here in rio de janeiro and in many parts of the city it's like this business as usual with no signs of soldiers on the streets but in recent days where we have seen the military there is already concern about how they're treating some of the very people they are there to protect the army has conducted operations and routine patrols in several shanty towns or foot bella's as they are called here trying to crack down on criminality and drug gangs there is worry though about heavy handed tactics many favela residents feel as though the army is already treating them like criminals for no reason the military has set up checkpoints in and out of several communities and there is this photo taken by a local newspaper that appears to show soldiers taking photos of residents coming and going to their homes it's led many to believe this is a military intervention that is unjust and targeting certain people for no reason while drug gangs and militias operate in shanty towns it's also true about one point five million people in the city of rio live in favelas that's about twenty percent of the entire population of the city the vast majority of these people are law abiding working families who simply can't afford to live anywhere else human rights groups are worried about potential abuses of power by the military and they say when soldiers are patrolling residential neighborhoods in the name of law and order it usually doesn't end well just when a simple it's a public security model by stone militarization a tool of confrontation war and the war on drugs a model that has already been implemented in israel and other states and a model that filed that did not bring positive results it's. security officials say the military intervention is meant to help rein in criminality and are quick to show off drugs and weapons they say was apprehended by police with the help of the army but there are many unanswered questions in rio there are currently three thousand soldiers here but it's unclear if more will be sent and if so what their role will be djibouti is government has seized a major contain a poll from a us company blames m.r.c. officials for failing to resolve a contractual dispute which it says was damaging to breach

to last for thirty years but in two thousand and fourteen g would you launched a lawsuit against d.p. world accusing it of bribing a former port director to secure favorable terms then on thursday the government terminated the contract. for the west surprised the contract is so unfair and detrimental to our rights and our national sovereignty and that so many years after signing it when we asked about the need to enlarge the ports and build new ones we were told we had no right to do that dubai is infuriated and has described the move as oppressive and cynical and as an illegal seizure
