Well, dozens of hostages were rescued on tuesday after being abducted by armed groups 2 months ago. President Mohammed Bari is saying the army has been given extra equipment to track down the criminal gags alger. There was ahmed address reports on this now from a boucher this happened because of days of intense bombardment of binded high doubts in the zone for a state and other neighboring states. Remember this conflicts taught it more than about a decade ago, and we havent seen increased military activity until the last 3 years when the president ordered that the military be deployed to tackle what was then a growing threat. I just then it has little forced into a monster that to d today weve been massacres. Was that this before in zone for a state weve seen recently about 40 travelers were burned to live in a bus and attack blamed on this bended. So right now, whats happening in the 10 villages typed by the bandit with the president said, what are treating from these strikes . What carried out in 10 villages . So the villagers are actually not going back to the villages. Some of these villages have been completely destroyed. The men of my in school hearts and things like that. Theyre only going back now to recover buddies as a 24 hours ago, 100 more than 150 such bodies had been recovered. Some of them have been burned or mutilated on recognition.

We are the, the, the, the community of different villages and i was attacked with a truly, it depended, imposed finds on them millions of near our village. So most of the villages could not come up with the money and that, but its actually a target. So when, when ever a village could not come up, would believe the bell will impose on monday attack them . So we have reasons to believe that this attacked i getting worse by the day. Yes. Now the government has responded with asked, strikes in the region, but that doesnt appear to have affected the, the capability of these criminal gangs because they are still able to carry out attacks on villages. Yes, ive got an interest in the book as sites on the, on the different part of the teach book.

You really are in between unload largely, im not effective in handling what needs to happen to try and get to the roots of all of this because its a number of Different Things have been playing out for years. You have that competition for resources amongst different communities. You then have criminal gangs and other groups that have been taking advantage of the vacuum and, and the insecurity. What else should the government be doing . And we believe there is completely a complete absence of governance at the grocery de luca government, which are not functional. There is a complete absence of basic infrastructure. Im but the images are de grossman, and these are some of the factors that contribute to the recent escalation of insecurity on the bundle.

There is a loss of frequent commuting between the 2 cities and aging authorities are on high alert that anxious to make sure that there is no outbreak in the capital before the beginning of the beijing Winter Olympics on february the 4th.

Stephanie decker is in west truce lemon has more on the measures. Israel is taking, has kept his boarders close to foreigners, for most of the pandemic, really close them again in november. But what it says now, and its, its, its interesting really, because, ironically, the numbers are all time high here in terms of daily infections. But what theyre saying is that simply the spread is so among the community that travel in and out is not really going to make a huge difference. As of today, the borders are open to vaccinated, foreigners, im israel is really pushing the idea that it is the vaccine. And the booster that is the best bet against this virus. They were the 1st country to to use a 3rd booster last year. Theyre now already administrating the 4th booster to those over 60 years of age, theres Research Going on whether this is going to be effectively administered to the entire population. But it is a situation where you have high numbers testing centers. I think as in other countries are really at breaking point.

Also, theyre cutting down on quarantine time whether you have it or not. Because they say simply, a variant doesnt seem to be as serious in terms of causing illness, particularly to those vaccinated. And also they dont want to have hundreds of thousands of israelis in quarantine when it comes to the economy. So i think, you know, this is how theyre deciding to move forward.

The 1st time empties of met since elections 3 months ago. Earlier in the session, there was an altercation in the acting speaker of parliament had to be taken to hospital according to political tradition in the country. The position of speaker is filled by a sunny man would under why it has more from baghdad, a sort of a hustle that happened the heated argument between a members affiliated with enough to the so the whos block, the southwest movement, one, the majority of seats on the one hand and those who belong to that, what is so called here, the Coordination Framework which includes the pro irin, shia political parties. The conflict happened over who has the majority of c t who has the biggest block in the parliament because by virtue of the iraqi constitution, in this session, the biggest majority of the parliament should be identified should be named so that it will later be assigned with forming the government. Now, what happened is that the Coordination Framework, which includes the up she a Political Party which are affiliated to iran, that last many seats in the election, they submitted a list of 88. 00 members, claiming that they have the biggest to block than they were confronted by the pro solder members and then the heated argument started tension was rising.

Now in venezuela, people have been voting for a 2nd time in 2 months to choose the governor of bar in us state as part of a wider battle for power between the opposition. The government of president nicholas madura, his Ruling Socialist Party as controlled the home state of missouris predecessor hugo chavez for more than 20 years. Sundays re run is the result of novembers disputed election. Supreme Court Ordered it be held again after disqualifying the opposition candidate. Or you, it will be, i fear not at all or what is it it brought up today is a day of celebration for all the people at bahrain us and for all the venezuela. I am accompanied by freddy superman, who as you know, as the governor elect, after the folks in november with him together with all these beloved people, we are going from victory to victory to day. We are going to ratify what happened on election day or well. Terrys a boy joins us live now from when his iris. Why are the elections and very nice so important well for many this elections and we are important not totally because theyre happening in the state where the former press and chavez was born. Its also a place where for the past 23 years, the chavez family has been empowered, but theyre also important because of what happened during novembers local elections in the country when freddy. So the battle and thats the opposition candidate during the elections in the state of bad enough, was disqualified under countries highest code 4 called for a re run for, for many in the country. This elections in aware an example on whether free and Fair Elections are possible in the country. And this, of course, raises the question of whether, when the government can decide when the elections happen and who is allowed to run in those elections. And this is something that divides the opposition on one side, theres many who believe, but the way out of the current political system in, in venezuela, the gulf, my little government is through election. So presenting themselves in different elections in the country while others say that the government cannot be trusted, but theres no rule of law, no judicial independence, and the elections shouldnt happen. And thats why they continue to support Opposition Leader one way though, and they want the International Community to continue pressuring the government to continue imposing sanctions in the country. As a way out of breath, for pressuring nicole towards a negotiating table and towards so that free and Fair Elections can actually happen in venezuela. And the government went to Great Lengths to try and show the elections in november were free and fair is the same thing. Happening this time round . Well, thats a big question. Lets not forget what happened in past november. It was the 1st election in years to happen with major opposition parties participating in it. It was also the 1st election in 15 years in which the European Union morning toward that election with a 130. 00 International Observers at the time you were Opinion Union said that they worse no rule of law, that there was no judicial independence, but that this were the most organized elections in many, many years. What were searing right now is that at least 25000 Security Forces were deployed to the estate of a 600000 people or so that there was a full preference of the state of the socialist party. Of the candidate hall here re assa whos a former Vice President whos a former foreign minister whos the father of over chavez grants. And so what were seeing is that the governments presence is very, very important in that state. Many, i was saying that there was intimidation, but this time there is no presence of International Observers. What were hearing right now is that the voting process continues, even though the polling station should have closed about half an hour ago, that the results will be announced in the capital in ga. Gov instead of in the state. The opposition is saying that what culture right now is the turn out that they are able, in a way to challenge the government through the vault. So the big question here is what will happen in the next few hours . Thank you. From bonus iris to raise about rusher, saying it wont be making any concessions during security. Talks with us on monday. Diplomats will meet in geneva to discuss rushes, truitt build up on the border with ukraine. Washington threatened sanctions of moscow invades its neighbor, or shes dep, she foreign minister says hes disappointed by what hes heard from the u. S. In europe ahead of the talks.

Your secretary say anti blinking, says russia, well have to choose between dialogue and confrontation. Were going to listen to their concerns. Theyll listen to our concerns and well see if there grounds for progress, but to make actual progress. Its very hard to see that happening when theres an ongoing escalation. When russia has a gun to the head of ukraine, with a 100000 troops near its borders, the possibility of doubling that on very short order. So if were seeing the escalation, if were seeing a reduction tensions that is the kind of environment in which we could make real progress. And again, address concerns. Reasonable concerns on both sides. Both halves in republicans rifka have defied a Court Ordered band to celebrate what they call state had de january 9th marks the day to 900. 92 and both mean subs declared independence, triggering a war which killed a 100000 people. This Year Celebrations come at a time of height, intentions with balls, and you had to governor a very possible succession plans for the inside lead a mineral dudek is facing us sanctions for calling for the regions independence. Well, it was office 3 and a half years of war that the 995 date and peace of causes formerly created. And it broke out 2 separate governing entities within both in the special and ethnic and territorial lines. One is republic, assert, sky, located in the north and east with a majority population. The other federation of boston has governor in the center of the country, dominated by muslim balls in the acts in catholic croats. They are linked by shad statewide institutions and a 3 person presidency with representatives from each ethnic group. Miller, i dont. It was among the senior officials who attended the military parade and bonnie, luka of us. Oh, there was always, i mean youll gathering here is the best answer to those who challenge us who say we cannot celebrate january 9th. When we say we can little those who constantly send us some sanctions. To me, this is proof. Ive listened to you that i was elected on your behalf, and i am not here to do what the americans wants, but what are people once lilianas marriage has worn out from the city of angelica. While this a day, our ver republic, a sub scott, is a dispute for many years, the hearing bars in her sabina, but decisions of the Constitutional Court of Bosnia Herzegovina are clear, ripple because of sky is entitled to celebrate the day of the public. A subscribe. Just not on the january, the 9th. So there is a dispute about the date because for serbs here in this part of bosnia, herzegovina, 9th, january of 1992 is a date when at a public, a subscriber of started to exist. And that is something sacred than important for them or something that, as they say, ah, guarantees a liberty for them and a best condition to live in Bosnia Herzegovina. On the other hand, for bottlenecks living in this part of Bosnia Herzegovina, the same date means something completely different. The start of the war, horrors that they endured in the public as that scar during the ninetys and layer on war crimes and genocide and southern usa. So theres a lot of dispute about that, but this year its even worse because weve been in a serious political crisis for over many months. And we keep our listening to me, laura, daddy who is saying that if bosner has given or is not functioning in accordance with the constitution of the country, he will begin the process of declaring a republic, a sub scott as an independent state. And he also announces that he would a, bring back some levels of authority from Bosnia Herzegovina, terrible because of so, which means that he would, again, form the army of republicans subscribe. And that he would completely control the tax system. And the traditional re at Anna Miller Van Novick is director of the post conflict Research Center and sorry, over a from where she joins us now. Do parades like the one we saw to day of stoke ethnic tensions and to some extent on the minor, fragile postwar balance in the area. Just thank you for the celebration today. I just have to say this has not been a one day event. This year is sort of started on, on january 7th, which is the orthodox christmas day. It started with several celebrations that became more local. Now this is the parade and we saw the video from is from bio luka, the one of the largest city Republican Service. However, over the last 23 days, weve seen more local celebrations that turn into in our media. Is it called incidence, which they basically included very hateful messages, songs propaganda, a lot for crime, denial, ism and war crimes, global glorification of sort, coming from the national nationalistic communities toward minorities, indoors in those communities. And what, whats important here to know is that the celebrations as horrific as they are and is your correspondence and you know, foreign minority groups in these local communities in republic services. And there may not even just be minority groups of basically for boss. Yeah. And some crime members as well. They did january 9th, march the day when war crimes started happening when genocide started developing. And so, as i said, the celebration itself as horrific as horrible as it is. Its a part of larger system thats brought about by the nationalistic political parties, from a public history. That is also supported heavily by the republic of serbia, and currently also by russia and china. In this larger system, were trying to remind you already of last year as a unified country and contribute to the a common goal of the so called serbian world. Which basically is incredibly dangerous fascists and discriminatory ideology than one group of people just because they are members of one ethnic group are in some way supreme to the other group. And so this celebration today and the localize celebrations that we saw in the communities basically carry those messages that somehow the Service Groups are, are holy and more special. That good leon bosnian serb leader miller. Dick, who i think was once described by washington as a breath of fresh air has gone from reformist to now that something very different him. Hes downplayed the 1995 massacre and has said that, i mean nothing. Nothing is going to stop him. How. How will he proceed now in terms of his policies in many media as a in many media news lent these last few days. Ive read a couple of his statements and during this parade today, he also gave a special statement, saying basically that within the next 5 years, his plan is to see a republic, a service guy as an independent country. Now people who have lived through the ninetys know what that meant. No one basically happened to moment a Republican Service, guy declared in dependency. No, that streamlined of events was very bloody and left a very bloody trail on this country. What is worry here and personally to me, to the 2 people that i worked with in the research is that we work with is to ceremonies. Celebration today. This horrific event was a very i gathered a lot of International Presence in when you look, you know, and gather the ambassador of russia gather and diplomatic members from china and gathered several friends to additions who are actually a members of the european parliament. Meaning that basically there are a parties and, and individuals and institutions in this world who are right now supporting this hatred and division in bosnia. And that is basically this giving more wind to the fresh wind from the well well thank you for putting that into context boys, titanium donovan short director of post comfort Research Center.
