coming up, iraq says the offensive recap sure ramadi has begun. shia militias say they are ending the charge. the remains of dozens of people thought to be trafficked migrants. the oil froze again. but power shortages continue, and the financial black hole that has caused new doubt over the space program. >> roof fall nadal is off to

a winning start, forecasten for now as he bids to win a tent title. iraq's military has launched -- the soldiers will be p be supported be i the shia militias who have a key role. however, their involvement has risen fears of sectarian tensions because most of the population is sunni referring to one of the most revered figures in shia islam, which the pentagon says is unhelpful. sharing borders with syria jordan and saudi arabia. the capitol felt to isil just over a week ago a major defeat for forces. the city is only 115-kilometers away from

iraq's capitol. reports from the bridge, on the edge of anbar province. >> forces gather preparing to retake the city that fell to it fooers more than a week ago. it is likely to be a long operation, there are reports of fighters preparing to meet government forces. they will lead the operation with backing from shia militia, many of which are supported from iran and air strikes led by the united states. >> with isil in control of border crosses from syria into anbar the fighters can push into back dad. to prevent that they are securing the capitol. the town just under 30-kilometers is being fort fied. fie ft.fied. >> we are fighting a psychological war.

the portioned here are mainly shia militia. since they brought them under the command of the government they fly a new flag. each militia has it's own identity but all fight under this banner, including this group. fort fying baghdad comes with unique challenges. this is the bridge, the last safe place to cross from the pro vince into baghdad. it is likely to see more scenes like this as long as to fight we will take it. that will enter baghdad disguised as displaced people.

in the capitol. >> life there to baghdad and al jazeera is there for us, do we have any updates on the operation so far the progress of it. >> what we are hearing from the security forces is they are pushing to try to take some of the roads which are key and anbar is very much a dessert province, so the roads only a few of them, you need to take control of hose and also pushing into the towns on the outskirts in places but they have already suffered losses in the last hour or so, we have heard there have been three car bombs killing at least 25, bringing the total amount to date against the security forces to five, and at least forty-five soldiers are dead, so it is a very tough battle, these car bombs are one of isil's most devastating weapons they have been used to great effect by the group against iraqi security forces. and particularly when they went into ramadi.

the way they are devicing the forces sup that you have the army you have the shia militia whose are supported by iran, and you have the air strikes, that's already crucial, but people are worried that it may not be the coordination needed between iran, and the u.s. who are in charge of the air strikes and that's a role concern can to a lot of people here. >> tell us more about those militias and their involvement so far in the fighting? what the sensitives may be this time. >> well, the militias have had great success against the targets and have taken over places that isil has taken many the past. they are a motivated group they are also very well trained and motivated. so they have had these successes and they are being brought in by the anbar provincial council there is a fear though, that the

sectarian element of this will rise, because they have been blamed in the past for committing effectively war crimes now they have always denied this, but there has been significant evidence that has been produced saying they have gone into areas and they have executed people, or arrested people without charge. this is the kind of thing that if gets out of hand will be a real problem, because ask barr is very much a sunni has a very sectarian name, it's called named after one of the key can shia arms so the optics of that are also very countryinging we are very worried about the role they play. >> all right, thank you very much indeed. a mill dare history would be co wrote a book on the armed forces. do you have more of an idea of what the balance is within this grouping won the army

and these other elements. >> well, when we are talking about the iraqi army, we have the iraqi security forces, then within the iraqi security forces we have the special forces that was trained by the u.s., and the iraqi police. now you also have the shia militias that are divided between four major factions it seems the militias are more willing to serve as shock troops especially in the more violent urban combat scenarios that we saw in the fight for tikrit. >> are they likely in this case can to succeed. >> they are -- based on the precedent of tick credit, we have seen that the militias tend to be bit more motivated. not necessarily because they have a connect can to ramadi which tends to be the arab city, but as a means of inflicting jets on isil which

appears to be a threat to the shia iraq. >> tell me, the pentagon has again said today that forces suffers from low morale, and the problem in command structure. prior to their withdrawal, do you think -- they seem to be repeated the cement similar we had from the defense secretary over the weekend is that accurate? is low morale part of the problem? the main part of the problem. >> well, we saw low morale must have been part of the problem for at least the regular iraqi discusser forces. there's also questions about the circumstances why did the iraqi special forces withdraw did they withdraw because they were outnumbered or do they still have affiliations with the former prime minister and wanted to give the new prime minister an embarrassing situation with the fall of ramadi so kit can

be a combination of infighting. low morale, among at least the regular iraqi discusser forces and remember the police station but i don't think those credit teaks would be applicable to the irake cashia militias because they aren't in place before the fall. >> what add the don't name given to operations is unhelpful. >> i think that you are paying attention to the wrong behavior if they have openly sectarian symbols that's one thing. it is the behavior that you can should pay more attention to and if they have finally learned that if they practice justice in the towns that attack over, i think that will do more damage than the actual whatever flags they fly or the names they call

themselves, most of ramadi is displaced. i think if any allows those refugees to come back, i think the citizens won't really care if they are openly sectarian, it is how they behave. if the militias allow them to come back to their home, don't -- harass them, and allow them to return to the homes i think that's what will make the difference in the long run. >> okay, thank you very much indeed. syria's air forces reportedly carries out an attack in the northeast of the country state news agency said 140 isis fighters were killed an isil strong hold, isil seized the base in august after fierce fighting that left hundreds dead on both sides. government forces reportedly dropped six-barrel bombs on the refugee camp, which is hope to some 6,000

their cabins there were cabins that were made out of brick that just got completely washed away when a wall of water just came through. it just lifted up the cabins and just tumbled then down the river, so they are looking for ten people that are missing over ten people that they think are missing here. this is a city that has been hit by far the hardest but the entire state and the entire region has seen some of the worst flooding now in decades. this river that you see behind me, it had not joan flown banks like this for over 30 years. the worst part is that forecasters say this kind of rain and flooding can continue in the days to come. >> with with that forecast of further bad weather what's the advice to people there? are they being helped to get to safety. >> they are people are told

to not go outside we are seeing people here in the town starting to clean up as best they can and the state has been put on several counties in the state have been put on a state's of emergency, so we have seen police blocking off roads leading into some of the areas like this, that are so badly effected but basically the message here, in the state of texas is be very careful because these can hit very fast and they can be deadly even though the number of casualties has been very small so far. rescue personnel are worried if these continue it can put more people at risk. the interim president warned that a et mooing in brussells today much more help is needed to bring stable to the
