>> hello from doha. welcome everyone, this is the news hour on al jazeera. violence in southern lebanon as hezbollah launch a missile attack on an israeli convoy.: jordan pushing international law to its limits. boko haram attacks are pleased to have killed hundreds of people.

and one of the oscar favorites glorifying war and demeaning muslims? >> the israeli army says two of its soldiers have been killed in an attack by hezbollah. a y. peace keeper from spain has also been killed. here's the map just to put it all into context. lebanon's southern border occupied by israel, part of an area that has been disputeed for decades. part of the golan heights israel also occupied since 1967. hezbollah said it's in retaliation to the attack in israel that killed six of its members. nicole johnston has hour our report.

>> reporter: this is moments after the attack. near the border with syria and lebanon. israel deployed soldiers in the area and fired rockets into lebanon. the armed group hezbollah, which is based in lebanon has claimed responsibility for the attack. it says it's in response to an israeli attack last week against its fighters in syria. israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu has warned of a swift and painful retaliation. >> at this moment the idea of responding to the events in the north to everyone who is trying to challenge us at the northern border i advise them to consider what happened in gaza. hamas took its hardest hit since it's formation and we're prepared to react strongly on all fronts. >> reporter: last week's israeli attack against hezbollah happens near a syrian city in the golan heights. that's where a high-ranking

iranian military commander and six hezbollah fight percent killed. were killed. this area has always been a contentious one for israel and hezbollah. hezbollah has carried out attacks there before, but certainly none any as bold as this for years. nicole johnston, southern lebanon. >> two correspondents to talk to about this developing story. james bays, we'll come to in a moment. but we'll go to jerusalem. any direction that we've had about where this could go further? >> well, there is a lot of analysis out there about how it

could pan out in the next few hours. however, let me just give you details that we got in the last hour. an israeli army source has confirmed that the spanish u.n. peace keeper that was killed was killed from a mortar shell that was fired from israel. this source said that the army was an in immediate contact with the united nations that they regret this incident and will investigate it. as well as there were no intentions to harm the u.n. forces that are based there. further information we received from the army as well is that today a total of six missiles were fired from lebanon by hezbollah into israel. three hit that army convoy, in which twosomes two soldiers were killed and seven were wounded. another one hit a home in the little border town along the

israeli-lebanese border. we also heard reports that the vehicle that these soldiers were killed in was not an armored vehicle. there is a lot of criticism right now for the government and the army saying--from people--saying that they should have been in an armored vehicle. as well as in the last hour or so we know that netanyahu the prime minister, has been in tel aviv all day meeting meeting with top security officials about the incident in the north he said that he holds responsible both the lebanese government and the syrian government for the attack. whoever is behind the attack will pie a high price. that said, there is a lot of analysis out there that suggests that israel may not want to take this any further. it will respond as it says it will, we don't know if there is going to be a continuation of this response overnight but there is a lot of analysis out there suggesting that israel will try to contain the

situation and respond in such a way that doesn't descend into more violence or a war with hezbollah. >> michael: thank you for all that nisreen el-shamayleh in west jerusalem. over to new york james bays at the united nations. can you expand on the international reaction there james? >> a great deal of concern from diplomats that i've spoken to. they're meeting on another subject in the last few hours, a subject that is very near buy because, of course, where this violence is taking place is very close to the border of where israel forces are and where the lebanese border is, and where syria is. so the inter section of those three countries they've been talking about the humanitarian situation in syria. at the same time we know that the u.n. security council has been thinking about putting out a statement. the french will draft a statement. in the last few minutes i'm

hearing from diplomats that as well as a statement it's likely this has not been announced yet by the security council presidency but likely there will be an u.n. security council meeting in the next couple of hours. a closed meeting to discuss the situation. the security council at that meeting almost certainly will be addressing one submission that has been received in the last couple of hours. that's a letter that they've received from the israeli ambassador. he told the security council that he sent them numerous letters in the past about hezbollah, and for years they have been stock piling weapons in violation of resolution 1701, the u.n. security council resolution that was put in place after the end of the war in in 2006. he goes on, the international community cannot ignore the threat any longer. it will not stand by and accept any attacks on its territory and

will exercise it's right to self defense and take all necessary measures. those words in a letter to the u.n. security council from the israeli ambassador. one of the things, i suspect they will be discussing as al jazeera now is hearing for the first time that it's likely in the next couple of hours that the security council will be meeting to discuss the situation on the ground. >> thank you for all of that. james bays is live at u.n. headquarters in new york. well we'll move to other news. nigeria's military repeatedly ignored warnings of pending boko haram attacks. boko haram reportedly killed hundreds of people earlier this month, and they failed to react to requests to send reinforcements there. they also had advance warnings of another boko haram attack. the ground took control of the town a few days ago. i spoke with the secretary

general of amnesty international, and they say that the government is not doing enough to protect civilians. >> this is a long-term exclusion that has caused tension in the northeast. but more immediate it is the failure of the nigerian government to protect civilians. that's the issue. there is massive corruption, lack of accountability, attack after attack, and no investigation and no action being taken for not moving. there is no question that the people in the front line are struggling the military in the front line are struggling. but nigeria has one of the most powerful armies in africa. the leadership is not really leading. that's the biggest issue. there is no political will. there is no action on the ground. >> tens of thousands of nigerians who fled to safety because of the fighting with boko haram won't be able to vote in next month's presidential election. nigeria's electoral commission said that they can't register in camps where they're displaced.

they've been speaking to some of those affected. >> he lost his right to vote in the parliamentary elections next month. that's because he does not have a voter's card. he lost it when boko haram attacked his village in borno state earlier this year and burned down his house. he and his family have been living in this camp ever since. >> we didn't take anything along with us. everything was burned. we lost everything. i'm not happy because as a citizen i was driven from a place, and now i don't have a voter's card because everything was burned. if they can help us to vote, they should. >> there are tens of thousands of displaced people facing the same problem. but they can only vote at the pollling place where they're

registered. >> they were given the chance to register to vote in other states but that deadline was last year. anyone displaced this year won't get a chance to take part in the elections. the national electoral commission said only a change in the law could make it possible for most displaced people to vote. >> there is no way we can take the ballot papers to where they are. how do you now take your ballot papers to these settled people. there is implication that you're trying to move to those areas and you're not sure about the level of security of the offices. how do we distribute the ballot? how do we know the number. >> joshua and many other displaced people feel that something should have been done to insure their right to vote. boko haram fighters have been displacing people for years. but that is very unlikely.

the elections are less than three weeks away, so joshua and many others are certain to miss out. al jazeera jos. >> jordan says it will release an iraqi woman on death row if isil will free a jordanian pilot. he was captured when the plane went down in the region. they are also asking for the release of a japanese prisoner also held by isil. >> jordanian government said they are willing to release the woman in return to release the jordanian pilot captured by isil. but that's not what they're offering. they want her released in return for the release of the japanese hostage, not the jordanian pilot. butthey say if she is not

released they will kill the jordanian pilot as well. now the family is putting a lot of pressure on the jordanian government to spare his life. even if that means that they'll free the japanese hostage and without his release. so this deal has not been turned down yet but it is leaving the government here in a very tricky situation because there is a lot of criticism by the family of the jordanian pilot and other members of parliament for the government for joining the u.s.-led coalition. the parents yesterday said of the jordanian pilot, they said this is not our war. our son joined the royal air force here the jordanian air force to protect jordan not fighting isil. >> now the relief of the

prominent iraqi prisoner from jordan for exchange for that pilot could breach international law. there is a resolution on hostage negotiations with armed groups. it was adopted last year, and it calls on members to prevent terrorists from benefiting directly or indirectly from ransom payments or from political concessions. and to secure the release of safe hostages. let's talk to richard fowlke at princeton university, also a formerly with the u.n. international law. >> this reelings leaves a lot of interpretation for governments. this is not necessarily a concession to a terrorist group a political process that

involves prisoner exchange. it's something different than paying a ransom or making some kind of other concession. this seems to me to be within the discretion of a government depending on the context. it can be interpreted as a political concession. but my own view is that the sovereign government such as jordan or in this case also japan would not be in violation of the u.n. security council resolutions if it agreed to this exchange. >> what would you interpret as the concession. what type of thing do you think it would be? >> well, it might be some kind of card for--if a group was under siege and they were being given the opportunity to escape

by corridor, made available to them. being able to acknowledge their legitimacy in certain settings. these things happen, of course, for instance, israel has often negotiated with hamas and given what could be interpreted as political concessions in order to gain objectives they have given priority to in that particular setting. it's a vague and complicated area that can't be reduced to mechanical rules of permission and prohibition. >> you've also got--how can i describe this--the way the security council resolutions can be treated some groups, some

countries will sort of pick and choose which ones they want to enforce, and which ones they don't. >> yes there is a lot of room for maneuver by governments in particular cases and it should be noted that this security council resolution, other than--unlike the one that was adopted in 2011, which is a more comprehensive anti-terrorist decision by the security council, does not claim to be acting under chapter 7, which is the charter part that calls for enforcement for security council initiatives. so i think the language of the resolution and the vagueness of the terminology both support the idea that this is something that can be interpreted reasonbly in different ways

depending on the context. >> thank you so much for your time. good to talk to you. >> good, thanks for having me. >> still ahead to this news hour. aisles fighters in syria. there is not much to return home to. >> i was afraid that if they could reach deep inside me, then i would be at their mercy. >> the survivors of the secret police tell their story and return to the museum in germany. and serena williams fates for her 19th title. >> the prime minister in greece has reassured his counterparts that will not be.

>> they have camped on the streets outside of the finance ministry for a year. but on wednesday were in shock. greece's new prime minister made it his first task to rehire some 600 cleaning ladies his department dismissed 18 months ago and replaced with cheaper workers. >> it doesn't perhaps do anything for greece that some cleaning ladies are going back to work. but it's very important to change the climate. we hope that people will win back their properties, their lives, and the livelihoods that they lost. >> the government is keen to show that they're delivering on day one. the cabinet met on austerity policies. it will pay down the debt, including those of the state power company and port

authority. a hiring freeze is gone. crowd control barriers that have been sunk in the square before parliament was removed. it's a symbolic gesture that a state living within its means and paying creditors has nothing to fear. >> they said talks will start from scratch. >> we're turning a page from the logic of a self-perpetuateing crisis. a bankruptcy problem was seen as a cash flow problem. greece received the biggest loan in human history to pay off debts old and new. it didn't take an economist to realize that this could in the end well. countries lent more money than they should have. >> the fact is that the state will not be reckless.

they promised to maintain balanced budgets but can it last. greece's former representative, one of greece's creditors say that the country still needs to borrow $23 billion this year. >> they have chose an path of confrontation, which could lead to an accident that would take the form of a default on a payment, on the external debt. and the next step would be social unrest, capital flight, and eventually exit. >> they are keen to say they will not don't confront their creditors in the wild west style. >> in ukraine falling oil prices, and the falling value

the ruble. they will spend millions of dollars to rescue the battered economy. big spending cuts are on the way along with the measures outlined $35 billion will be spent on reinflation measures. but the final cost will be higher. most of the cash will be spent on federal loans leaders in moscow are considering creating a bad bank for troubled assets. and spentingand budget cuts are expected over the next five years. economists say that russian's banks are particularly vulnerable. >> it's a situation of necessity. saving individual companies has been going on for the past two months at least. on average two or three russian banks of various sizes have

collapsed since november, december on a weekly basis. so it's a response to an ongoing problem. a lot of critics have pointed out that it's not really an ain't crisis measure or program or strategy but rather a rescue with very immediate concerns.. it's interesting to have a bad bank where bad debts will be refiled. there are some who are indian suffering suffering. >> the falling ruble is hitting migrant workers in russia, and some say they can't afford to stay. >> they do the jobs that others

won't touch. they shift the snow from the streets at the capitol. they provide the largely unskilled workforce on hundreds of building sites. each morning is a lottery waiting and hoping for another day's work. home if it can be called that, overcrowded slum dwelling in the worst directs of moscow. and always the threat of violence. in russians angered by the presence of the foreign migrant workers. it's not an easy life. and for men the collapse and value the ruble means that it's simply not worth it any more. this man left his wife and five children behind in uzbekistan. soon he'll be returning to them. >> uzbeks are leaving. they came up with all these new laws. and everything has become so expensive. we don't send rubles, we send dollars. >> they're processing their papers that will allow them to

leave. the russian authorities say that the flow of migrants is 70% lower than this time last year. but the head of the center said that some may yet come back. >> people can say they'll another come back but it may be an impulsive decision based on a moment of panic. we should wait until march to see how many workers we've lost. >> each day hundreds of workers from one of the old russian republics gather outside of their embassy in moscow. these men are voting with their feet. here to pick up their exit papers and return home. the russian economy needs these people migrant labor force that could not easily be replaced. but the culmination of the fall of the ruble against the dollar and they could see this flow of cheap labor turned off. >> israeli rights groups are accusing israel of violating

international law by targeting palestinian homes during last year's war in gaza. [ explosion ] >> the policy caused a huge number of casualties the majority being women children and the elderly. 70 attacks were carried out last year. more than 2270 palestinians were killed. >> those killed were not involved in the hostileities. they were family members very often, and in some cases we know who the intended targets of these souls were, militants from hamas and other armed groups in gaza but in other cases we don't know yet the stated intention of the military. when we look at the attacks and the it appears these policies

have led to attacks it violates international law and in other cases there are suspicions that these laws were violated. now hamas and palestinian armed groups violated international law as well. they themselves fired at israeli citizens from populated areas but that does not mean that all israeli actions in response to these violations are legal because international humanitarian law classifies if your opponent is violating the law, it does not give you license to do the same. so israel is obligated to distinguish at all times and to be proportionate in its responses even though hamas is violating international law itself. >> still ahead on this news hour. >> the fight for sinjar city is now in its second month. it is a vast area, 100,000

people used to live here. >> the isil snipers on the front line in iraq. and in sports newsmany pacquiao and floyd mayweather may meet for the first time, but not in the ring, though. selling cocaine was my purpose. >> we was starvin', just lookin' for a way to succeed. >> the first time i seen rock cocaine was 1980. >> the murder rate was sky-high. >> south of the 10 freeway, was kind of a "no-man's land". >> you know, we're selling it for the blacks. i said, you go into these neighborhoods, there's no cops you can sell it where you want and when they start killing each other, nobody cares.

>> i was going through like a million dollars worth of drugs just about every day. >> that's like gold! >> we can make a fortune! >> he was maybe the biggest guy in l.a. >> freeway rick was getting his dope from a very big operator. i think we're into something that's bigger than us. something we really can't deal with. >> they had been trafficking on behalf of the united states government. >> she could prove what she was saying. >> [rapping] crack in the system. >> [rapping] this is los angeles.

for syrian refugees getting home is not easy. many came to the border on tuesday hoping to cross but the border is still officially closed and turkey security forces pushed the group back. those in the tourish town said that they still have reason to celebrate. >> we have come here for kobane. kobane is liberated and we're extremely happy. >> kobane is fully liberated today. we're happy and celebrating here. all our friends are here. we feel joyful about kobane since isis has level. left. we hope to be able to go home soon. >> taking control was a joint effort.

>> the evidence allows us to determine that the opportunities interest kidnapped killed, burned and dumped in a river. he signed 39 confessions including this man he said that gang bosses called him to dispose of the students on the night of september 26th. in addition to confession the conference was completed with produced videos and reenactment all to add way to the attorney general's argument, but it's unlikely to convince a kept skeptical country. so far forensic experts have only identified the remains of one of the students. they say there is no way that 43 people were burned by a few gang members at this dump. >> we don't believe it. yesterday they saw many people marching in the street. they want to close the case. >> the conference came after
