a general election, beset by low turnout and sporadic incidents of violence. finding just to shake, i've seen his body is expected to win a full time in a row. after a nationwide vote, boy, guarded by the main opposition. hundreds of thousands of police and members of the armed forces were deployed in the lead up to the ballad. several polling boots schools and a buddhist monastery was set ablaze. at least 4 people were killed in a passenger train. find that the government called austin. here are some of the reasons this selection has stood such a political unrest. brian minister, she casino cost her vote in the election in which many fund let issues already know what that is. the is going to be the ruling of on me. the faces on was no affective rifles in more seats. are the main opposition? the bundle dish nationalist party sees the election is unfair and is not a big bar tunnel. going to advertise. we are asking people to by court the election

on the disconnect, the risk we act accordingly. we have informed the word on the phone whether she nation about the pro desktop rep. and the mission is protesting with us. to check the b and b, it uses the government of secrecy now of imposing a booty track down in the months leading up to the election. the body claims more than 20000 of its members have been arrested and several guild in clashes with police. many remained in hiding. the government seized the b and b has got a dog r as and the dogs cousins of law enforcement officers has been sent in to maintain security on election d. since bangladesh was created in 1971, it has mostly been joined by either of army league or the b and b. each

claims the other for violent tax. despite to this would be an effective fleet uncontested. the decades of for the most of the between the 2 main parties overshadow galaxy. i asked dw, so bad i've met in duncan, i if the all positions boy cause had impacted voter turnout as well. yes. it certainly has to be a few minutes ago. the electric connection commissioner, because you have the water, he has declared that the total turn out uh uh, is around 40 percent. uh what he told us earlier. uh, one hour before the election. the 4 folds being closed. uh, it was during the 7 person there around 27 percent now its 40 percent off. however, from the election commission and also from the ruling party, the anticipation was they would and they were expecting that the 50 percent turn

out of the debt and in bangladesh, even in an in i do situation logan all the parties taking, taking part in this and in an action, a 70 percent for thing turn out is the number. so in that sense, actually the uh, the, the, the white coach from the opposition has effected the building, turned out, ends up being, but uh, we will be there. we are still waiting for the final uh no final. the exact turnout results next will be declared from the election function to bath. awesome it in taca jordan's king abdullah has again us do with state upset for free entity blinking to put pressure on israel for an immediate cease fire and gaza. think it was in the jordanian capital on his part of a diplomatic tour of the region named it coming tensions is now in washington has repeatedly rejected goals for a true spec link. it is underscoring the need to protect civilians. any crusade the

us is top diplomats on a mad scramble to prevent the spread of b as well. how much will this time end to me blinking isn't georgians? capital man, as his middle east mission becomes ever more urgent. georgians. king of the 2nd judging the us secretary of state to do or he tend to push israel for a ceasefire and warning blinking of what he calls the catastrophic repercussions of war and gaza. lincoln's visits to a world food program facility, highlighting the west ending humanitarian situation in the gaza strip or for these displaced palestinians on the receiving end of this conflicting gauze.

help can't come soon enough. some accounting on end to me blinking himself to end the war. not by many brenton, we heard of the engine nibbling coming gods. the blinking looks the dog with an eye of massey and hens the will. and the misery with living in. they are people that mostly for free and they kind of find life. but his rescue is such rough blocked, we're not the is really as striking the south of the going to strip the prospective p seems hopeless. lincoln's middle east told though, continues, as he has to meet all the lead is on his mission to try to control the fallout from this conflict. i mean, the boarding is of a public health disaster. the us secretary of state is calling for aid to be scaled up the one about getting those deliveries to civilians. i put that question to test ingram of eunice. if the you, when children's fun as well, there's

a double challenge, ben. it's a matter of getting the idea and then and then getting into across because a strip. so we need to scale up i, we need to get to the in the as quickly as possible. and then we need to tackle some of the challenges that we face in getting it to the children and families who need it the most, but that is absolutely critical. so the cold, the scale it up is, is still very well welcomed. it has this one spot in the gaza strip in the very south, and it is the only spot where aid is getting in the boat to egypt. is there any hope of things getting better? there's been talk of the arrows crossing in the north being open for example. yeah, look like calling for a little existing crossings into the gaza strip that were, were operating before the escalation hostilities to be reopened. one of those crossings drenched along has been opening for, for some days, but, but as you say,

there are others that could be opened and we really need access from as many possible route set up for events in order for us to get more idea. and because at the moment, we're only getting in, you know, a 100150 trucks today and before the installation facilities of his 500. so the need is going your offices and the a is dwindled. so it's, it's really a, a very tragic situation for children and families on the ground. the guys are, i was going to say that a net needs to get to so many children who uh, over, proportionately affected in this will tell us more about the situation for them. which was you make up about half of the population of god, just as you say, that they disproportionately affected by these conflict is no safe spice for a child. and god, the bones folding from the and disease looking around every corner. as we just heard in your report, there's no food nurses, i was a no show to their parents and families are really just exhausted by the sheer

exhaustion of trying to survive every day where we're hearing accounts from families and children on the ground that they often go days without eating and when they do, it's just, you know, small amount of bread. and so the situation in terms of food is, is incredibly difficult and with worried in the coming waves to the very real risk of what spread 7. and for the kids who do manage to survive this onslaught, what, what sort of future is for them? how, how, why to you about the long term effects of this war on them? so it's a tragedy beyond anyone's wildest imagination. i think one of the things that where you know stuff a trying to prepare for and get a handle on these, the long term mental health impacts. obviously these children will have many of them physical scars from this conflict. but others will have lost family. they lost their home and enjoyed a ongoing fee

a to so for days and for weeks throughout these facilities. so as you know, so if we're not just then delivering aid, we're also providing support services to some of these children to make the weather out and help them process some of those emotions to try and reduce the long term impact of the trauma trauma that they're experiencing at the moment, the situation though is dependent on diplomacy that's going on around the region at the moment and so many different players, but who is to blame for things? not having changed. i mean from day one with 3 months into this war. and the situation hasn't changed. it really? it is. um, i'm the father of a little bit. we're allowing this as a global community to continue unit stuff has been calling for weeks now for an immediate and long lasting humanitarian satisfied because we talk about 8 and the changes that need to happen to get more in. and that's important. but the safe side

really is the only way that we're going to be able to deliver enough i to mate and they get it around the other to the children and families that need it. and ultimately, for the sizing to stop, because most people that we speak to him does or at the moment just urging us frontier to do whatever we can to end the fighting. as a humanitarian aid agency, we can add the kite to to parties then to all of the conceptual community to do. but everybody can to try and, and the funding but ultimately needs needs to come from outside. i got it from you to assess the test. ingram, thank you very much for taking the time out today to speak to us here on dw, and use a brief look at a couple of other stories making use the ssl rescue workers in japan to pull the woman in her nineties, from the rubble of a collapsed house smelled in 5 days after a deadly quake left to attract. she was quickly taken to hospital. the extent of the injuries is unclear,

16000 feet and only 10 minutes out from there, from the airports when the door blew. fortunately, they were not at cruise altitude of 30000 or 30035000 sleet seats. think about what happens when you're in cruise. everybody's up and walking. folks don't have seat belts on. they're going to restrooms. the flight attendants are providing service to passengers. we could end up with ended up with something so much more tragic. the us airline regulator has ordered the ground doing and inspection of some boeing 737, max, 9 jets in the wake of the incidence affecting more than a $170.00 aircraft worldwide. they're watching dw news from bell in optics
