Similarly, god is dead. The god of the people of the poor, the one who represented all of us. Thats why im so sad.

Another motion did spill over with people frustrated that they were standing in the queue for several hours to try to see that coffin. They realize that they were going to make it that the gates were going to close. There was some chaos, some would say the chaos represented in diego, maradonas life even spilled over into the day after his death, which was made perhaps inevitable. But there were those clashes. What has happened with a great deal of difficulty. They managed to get the funeral cortege out of the president ial palace. It took the route outside the outside, the city on the motorway with crowds lining the route, standing on bridges waving flags, as it went past little bit of chaos when the whole court turning had to turn back and come back. And we heard that in the last few seconds, it has finally arrived at the cemetery where diego, my daughters parents, mother and father are buried the ceremony taking place in the next few minutes.

Malcolm webb is following developments from nairobi in neighboring, kenya. He issued the ultimatum on sunday and said that to graham fighters had 3 days to surrender, lay down their arms and head of what he said would be a final salt on the final assault on the regional capital of mackay, which is a city of about half a 1000000 people now since then weve heard conflicting claims from both sides about how close the federal forces are to the city 70 kilometers 50 kilometers, even as close as 30 kilometers. But we havent yet heard any reports of shelling on the city itself, but this is something that rights organizations have expressed. Grave concern about because its such a dense population of civilians. Theyre saying be very dangerous if theres heavy fighting there at all. And in case of Amnesty International said that shelling of the city could even potentially constitute a war crime. The statement from the Prime Minister of the Prime Ministers office has said that the federal government started giving out humanitarian assistance, food, water, and medicines in the areas that it controls. It said its setting up for camps for the displaced people. Now the u. N. Said that about more than 800000, people in the region were dependent on humanitarian assistance.

All of them saying that theyre escaping shelling that theyve seen people being slaughtered, that theyve left family members behind and came here for their safety. They say that because of the lack of telecommunication and because of lack of access to many parts of to grieve, they cant confirm whether their relatives who theyve left behind are still alive or not. But most of them say that when they came here, they had to wait for more than a week to be able to access aid and aid aid groups and international organizations. Say that thats largely because this influx of refugees happened. All of a sudden they were not expecting it for there. For example, the World Food Program said that it had to get food from other programs. It has in the country to be able to supply aid for those people who are here more than 40000. Refugees have already crossed into the sudan into this down side of the border here and got out of state as well as neighboring desolate states. Now the biggest challenge when it comes to providing aid for, for those refugees is the fact that most of the roads are very difficult to access. Logistically, lets not forget that saddam had a very exceptional flood season just a couple of months ago where most of the roads were damaged. So aid groups say that logistically speaking, moving many of their songs to this area in response with the rise of the refugees would be very challenging. And there are concerns that they would be more than 200000. 00 refugees in sudan in the next 6 months or 8 are going to show that they are trying to step up so that no refugee is left in need.
