>> >> hundreds of thousands of refugees are ordered to leave urban areas in kenya or face prosecution. >> hello from doha. the world news from al jazeera. alleged war crimes in sri lanka. the united nations investigates. >> venezuela arrests three generals, accusing them of plotting to overthrow nicolas maduro.

>> so the kenyan government ordered refugees to leave urban areas and head to to camps in the name of security. on top of that kenyans are being asked to report illegal immigrants, and anyone flouting the directive will be dealt with in accordance to the law. this contains images. >> six people were killed when gunmen opened fire in a city of mombassa. it was the latest in a string in the country. since 2011, when kenyan troops crossed the border in anger to fight al-shabab. in the most notorious incident they claimed responsibility for the nairobi mall attack, leaving

67 dead. the interior secretary issued the refugee order: >> it's an order causing much concern. >> the people have kids. some of them it's not just individuals, but families who are going to school, and special educational needs, medical situations that they have. and there can be something worse than that. these people used to make money. when they go back, there may be animosity. the camp, as you know, is the largest, and has more capacity already. >> there are already half a million living at the camp. mainly somalis who fled violence

in their own country. hundreds of thousands more found places to live in kenya city, taking advantage of corrupt police and government officials. nairobi's suburb, known as little mogadishu is home to most. some are unregistered, many others are valid papers to remain in the country. all refugees are to be closed. an additional 500 troops have been assigned to help security surveillance. authorities will rely on the cooperation of kenyans in informing on any refugees outside the designated camps for the directives to succeed. >> it is worth thinking about the logistics of all of this. the designated camps in question are notoriously remote and overcrowded. the first is in eastern kenya,

80km from the border of somalia, described as a large camp, home to 420,000 somalis. you have the vast desert settlement in the west, 125,000 living there, including from somalia. an update on the story we have received. two suspects have been killed and 476 arrested in overnight raids by police in nairobi. home-made guns recovered in the raids. we'll bring you more on that when we get it. >> pressure is building on the sri lankan government to hold an independent investigation into the final stages of its war with the tamil tigers rebels. in a moment a report will be issued. >> this woman's family resettled

in this region a year after the war ended. they made a gruesome discovery. digging in the backyard, they found human remains. >> there were plastic maps wrapped around skeletons, and we called the police. >> nine skeletons were exumed from the site. a neighbour and a tractor driver who transported the bodies say they were those of civilians killed in the explosions. >> the time months were intense, caught in the crossfire between troops and tamil tigers in a shrinking pocket of land. many had little or no time to bury the dead. >> an id card on one of the bodies gives a clue as to the identity of the victims. this man, his wife and seven members of her family were killed in a shell explosion. we found the two family members who survived the blast - the father and youngest daughter.

>> we had been working for miles to escape the fighting and retired. it was dark. we stopped to rest. we were in a group. my father went to a shop. that's when it exploded. >> i doused the child's clothes, which was on fire. she was the only one who was alive. i don't remember anything after that. i passed out. >> this doctor, the judicial medical officer who oversaw the exhumation says tests show the skeletons had blast injuries. >> most of the skulls had multiple fractures. and same for the leg bones, to indicate a massive blast in the area. >> both sides in south asia's brutal conflict has been accused of war crimes. following the defeat of the

tamil tigers and the leadership the government faced calls fon an international investigation. they have both denied war crimes and human rights abuses. the resolution tabled by the united states with the support of the u.k., and other members of the council will be taken up for a vote by 28 march. >> a group of protesters gathered in columbo on views. it denounced the allegations of human rites abuse, calling them basele. a government avoided the push for such an having. let's go to colombo and talk to the executive director of the national peace council. thank you for your time. why is the government so reluctant to go down the path of the investigation. if they are happy to say it's

baseless. then it's untrue. >> the government fears that it is investigating what happened in the last phase of the war. it has appointed a lessons-learnt commission going into the past. it has appointed disappearances commission. therefore it says that there is no need for an international investigation which is a violation of its sovereignty. >> yet the international community is pushing for this. do you think there will be success? there's a report coming from the e.u., do you think it will make an impact? >> i think that the international community's insistence on looking into the past will have - is having an impact on sri lanka. it is because of international pressure that the sri lankan government appointed the lessons

learnt commission in the first place, and is proceeding with disappearances commission. i doubt whether the sri lankan government will permit international inquiry or personnel to come into sri lanka because the sri lankan government says that they are likely to be biased, and besides, it is infringement on the country's sovereignty. we can look into the past ourselves. >> what have the commissions brought forward already. can you tell the viewers what the sri lankan government managed to reveal, if anything. >> well the lessons learnt, in short, they took the position that as a matter of poll circumstances the sri lankan government took maximum precautions to prevent, minimise civilian casualties. the disappearances commission has been going around the north and the east, asking people to

come up with evidence of complaints. it's not been able to - it's not come up with reports, it's in a stage of gathering evidence. the problem is that the tamil people, those who are victims of the war and human rites group feel that the true picture will not emerge from what the disappearances commission came up with. that's why they urge independent international commission. >> on a more emotive level than what you have talked about, but does sri lanka feed this. i'm talking about the international side of things. will it give it legitimacy and impoetens to move on and put this behind them? >> i think what sri lanka need to do, and what the international community needs to

do is to try and find a way to work together to come up with a formula where the past, what happened in the past can be ascertained. the government feels that an international body will be biased against it. they've been able to convince the majority of the population, that a bias report will be the outcome of an investigation. on the other hand the tamil people feel that a government investigation by itself will, itself, be biased and suppress the facts. therefore, the best way forward would be if there is some sort of joint approach to ascertaining what happened in the past. >> thank you for your time. >> the arab league summit is moving into its final day. the opening session was dominated by the crisis in

egypt. 22 headers call for a solution. they were divided in their approach at how to define terrorism. let's check in with the diplomat diplomat diplomatic correspondent, james bay. will we get a final communique. >> we will, and we are watching for that closely. there's an unprecedented row between the gulf countries, which led to saudi arabia, united arab emirates and bahrain pulling the ambassadors out the capital. i don't think you'll see a resolution of that row. in syria, we need to watch some things closely. some are calling for the arab league to give weapons to the syrian opposition. no way that is going to happen, because some countries are opposed and some are doing that right now. i think where you could perhaps see developments is regarding

the syrian seat at the arab league. you remember at the last summit in doha they said in principle that would be given to the syrian opposition. it hasn't happened because some countries are worried about the idea and don't agree with the need. what we have done is set up a committee to examine it further. not sure whether it will report here in kuwait city, and whether we'll see a change on that. we'll watch it closely. >> thank you james bay in kuwait city at the arab league summit. >> in the news ahead. scrambling for survivors. >> nod ready 2.5 months until the football world cup kicks off. and there's a lot that needs to be done.

does it involve the air force and members of the army as well. or as one retired general who opposes the government sussing is it part of a protest. >> the president chose to break the news surrounded by foreign ministers, who are here trying to mediate between the government and their opponents. some question whether either side is interested in negotiations. >> when president nicolas maduro invites the opposition, they say you are thief. come here to negotiate with me. they are crazy. at the same time, their position - i don't think they want to do it. nevertheless, the high-level delegation plans to keep trying

to bring both sides to the table, amide fear the violence and polarization have reached the point of no return. >> a fleet of chinese ships and helicopters arrived in the southern indian ocean off the coast. searching for debris suspected to be from the missing malaysian airlines flight that disappeared almost three weeks ago. new data showed the plane crashed in the o. 153 of 239 people are chinese nationals. liberia's investigating eight cases of what health officials believe is ebowla. the virus killed more than 50 people, and in sierra leone two cases have been reported. it's transmitted by contact with bodily fluids and the unprotected handling of corpses. >> in the united states 24 people have been confirmed dead
