for the next life, it changes the situation about the development. let's begin with the fighters gathering, and the germ threat. >> yes, well, all indications suggest that the fighting in ibb will intensify because the 24 hour ceasefire ended with that ambush, what's carried out from the tribesman against enforcements, and developed into clashes, and left 12 killed,ate from the houthis, and 12 from the tribal leaders, they are called on fighters and enforcements, trying to rid the city of the houthis. on the other side the houthis are doing the same, with regard to a separate development to the

north-west of the port city. it fell into houthi control over the last 72 hours. now the tribesman very strong tribes there and armed men are threatening the houthis with a fight if they do not leave the port. it's on the red sea. >> how does it change the situation on the ground, when you know that government forces didn't fight or try to stop houthis or their advancement. it's changing the situation from one area of the country to the other. >> absolutely. what we saw in the last few weeks is a quick and rapid advance from the houthis, and there was no appetite within the military, the yemeni military to confront that. there were orders, direct orders from the minister of defense as

well as the interior minister of this country, to their forces to not oppose the houthi advance. so there's clear - no appetite to put the fight. all of that led to people, believing that there's a hidden agenda, and an alliance between the houthis on the one hand, with former president ab dala sala who enjoys influence on tribal leaders and military commanders. the aim of the alines is aimed at -- alliance is aimed at political enemies, including the party representing the muslim brotherhood. as well as other figures including tribal leaders. the situation is tense, and there is a fear that this country is headed to all out civil war. >> the situation is change, and that's has the hours progress, we'll come back to you. omar al saleh in the yemeni

capital. >> now, the syrian border town of kobane is under renewed attack. i.s.i.l. fighters launched mortar attacks. these are life pictures of the area. shots heard from a few hundred hours away. it's calm now, it wasn't earlier. bernard smith has the latest from the turkish, syrian border. >> there has been more mortar fire directed towards kobane's border area. that's behind me to the front of the town. i.s.i.l. fighters want control of the area according to the syrian kurdish fighters. i.s.i.l. want control. they want to use the border crossing to ferry the wounding over the border to turkey. turkey is providing humanitarian assistance to anyone that needs it at the border point. it doesn't distinguish between fighting groups and armed civilians.

that is why the i.s.i.l. fighters are putting pressure on the border area that remains in control of kurdish fighters. air strikes have diminished in intensity. there was one earlier, but they are not as frequent as they were towards the beginning of the week. those air strikes allowed kurdish fighters to regain territory in the town, to push back and retake positions that were i.s.i.l. controlment there is a bit of a stalemate. i.s.i.l. has control of the south and east of the towns. as kurdish fighters have been saying, since the fighting air strikes will not be enough to help them keep control of kobane. >> former iraqi air force pilots are training i.s.i.l. fighters to fly captured jet. according to the london based syrian group of human rites.

trainees have been flying over a mill tarian airport. it was taken by rebels last year. in iraq several ethnic groups are trying to stand up to i.s.i.l., saying they lost confidence in the army, and its ability to protect the community. >> to zeina khodr for more. >> these me are part of another irregular armed force - farmers, sfunts and the school principal. almost every man has a job, protecting their family from the islamic state of iraq and levant. there are members from groups, ethnic kurds following a p pre-islamic faith. it makes them feel threatened. >> we have to be alert. i.s.i.l. came here and threatened us many times. >> islamic state of iraq and

levant surrounds their village from three sides. lining front lines, the warring parties are a few hundred meters apart. the open ground makes it easy for i.s.i.l. to push into the village south of kirkuk. >> i did bad things to the yazidi in sinjar. we are afraid they'll do the same to us. if they come, we'll have to leave. >> the families who live here are aware of how i.s.i.l. fighters killed and kidnapped hundreds of yazidi, when they swept through the sinjar mountains in august. human rite groups accused the group of carrying out ethnic cleansing against the minorities in northern iraq. it is not the only community that has taken up arms. the yazidi, kurds, shias, everyone is armed and they talk about the need to protect themselves. >> the iraqi state no longer has a preps in many areas, since

i.s.i.l.'s advance in june. four months later people are worried that the country is disintegrating into ethnic and religious states. >> after i.s.i.l. took control of areas, every sect and ethnic group armed themselves. they lost confidence and are losing confidence that iraq is losing itself again. >> even though they get military help, what they prefer is for an authority to hold the country together. the power is in the hands of irregular armies, who are not fighting for iraq, but their own communities existence. >> al jazeera continues to demand the release of its imprisoned journalist in egypt. peter greste, mohamed fadel fahmy and baher mohamed has been in prison for 294 days. they are falsely accused of helping the outlawed muslim brotherhood, and are appealing against their convictions.

making intentions known. all of this is back where the boko haram issue, the ceasefire signed. and, of course, the release of the girls. some are skeptical, saying they have heard from the government, not anything official from boko haram. boko haram usually releases a video. they are waiting for the leader to release the video, and maybe in the video they spoke about the ceasefire, maybe he'll speak about the girls. people also want to know what do they get in change. if the ceasefire is genuine, what do they get in exchange for the parties of the missing girl, they want their daughters home. >> family members, friends, concerned nigerians have been protesting for months. many haven't returned home. the nigerian government says a ceasefire deal hasn't been reached, and talks to get the girls released have been

upon. it's the logistics and work ability. >> reporter: further details on the terms, including what's to other prisoners are held by boko haram, remain unclear. officials in cameroon attacked and killed some boko haram militants. it's surprising some nigerians, they say cameroon, can seemingly clear boko haram, why can't nigeria do the same. people want it to end, hoping the girls come home. they hope the ceasefire is genuine as it happens in a guma and nigeria -- abuja and our correspondent. also to come on al jazeera - taking on the umbrella movement. police in hong kong confront demonstrators, as they try to clear protest sites and we take

u.s. hospitals can handle infectious waste from ebola. many do not have insin raters or sterilisers. melissa chan is live in dallas, where two health care workers were infected after treating an ebola patient. how are the hospitals there handling all the dangerous waste? >> that's an excellent question. to be fair, they've been under a lot of criticism. to be fair, most hospitals in the area, frankly the united states are not equipped to deal with a high volume of human waste coming from an ebola patient. this is infectious, and hospitals know how to deal with infectious disease patients. in this instant human waste has been moved off-site to an insiperator that is dealing with

the situation. ebola is not transferred through the air, but through human to human contact. nurses and doctors - those on the front lines, have to have a proper protective gear. it is something that hops here and across the country are starting to re-assess. >> when it comes to tripping, parkland memorial says it's ready. >> you shouldn't have to start the training. you have to have the programme in place. >> it's what the hospital thought. it, too, had provided doctors and nurses training in infectious diseasement. snow in california, stanford reached out for ves. >> all along we had a little higher starpd than what the c.d.c. recommended. it's full body, skip. >> practice makes perfect.

the hospital not only strains a special team how to put protective gear on, but how to take it off. and anything that goes in, can come out. at the chicago medical center, they are training 3-4,000 trainees, each sets its own guidelines. they are using duct tape. without a health system, each hospital makes up its own rules. the c.d.c. provides recommendations. >> everywhere in the country may call to care. clammer og for information, not only from the centers, but from presbyterian hospital in dallas, that has a lot of information over the last 2.5 weeks. new information and procedures requires training. training takes times, time that no hospital has.

if another ebola patient appears tomorrow. to add a little more on the time issue, nurses and doctors can have questions and workshops. they have to thing about a fire fighter, going through drls. they bring it throughout the year. this is something that experts say intense workshops for 4-6 weeks that hospitals can't allow the nurses and hospitals allow her to do. the main challenge we are looking at is time. speaking of the challenges, what about the nurses in dallas infected with ebola, do we scr an update on the position. amber vincent who is at emory hospital, we have not had an update in 24 hours. she remained in a position. nina pham, who was travelled to

the institute of health in maryland was downgraded from good to fair. one way to think about it is if you have the flu, you know that it is going to get worse before it gets better. that's the context in which doctors are putting this. they are not too worried about the position in a moment. >> melissa chan live in dallas. thank you for being with us. a cruise ship with a health care work are exposed to dunk is headed back to port in texas. it is expected to dock tomorrow after being turned away by police and mexico over fears of the virus. the woman has been quarantined and shows no signs of ebola. she left, after march specimens. a san diego university

>> they have agreed that they will negotiate. that will happen on tuesday, the previous negotiations set up was the government has stepped back from that saying they didn't want to negotiate, so long as people occupy the streets. people have now realised that the talks have to go ahead. it seems like people are not going away. the issue with the negotiations now, the moderators that the government put up is someone that is pro-china, government. it will be interesting to see whether the students agree to that. they agree to talks. how they proceed it the next question. >> we'll keep our eyes on tuesday. divya, thank you for joining us. the sixth month ordeal for 200 schoolgirls abducted by boko haram may be nearing an pd. a ceasefire has been brokered, and as part of the deal the girls will be released.
