lives and we take a ride in the world's first 3d printed car and some say the train won't take off. ♪ we begin this news hour with a battle against i.s.i.l. in iraq where it appears the group is continuing to gain ground. the pentagon says iraq forces backed by u.s. coalition air strikes made progress in one key air, the beji oil refinery and described as a minor gain and i.s.i.l. still controls vast areas of iraq and it has taken ramadi the capitol of anbar province and thousands are displaced and military and militias trying to retake control. there and last year including the capitol mosul where i.s.i.l.

leadership is and backed by us air strikes held back the fighters from taking more areas and while resent advances by iraqi forces forced i.s.i.l. to retreat including the strategic city of tikrit sporadic fighting there continues. they admitted the u.s. has no complete strategy for helping iraq deal with i.s.i.l. and made the comment after meeting with iraq's prime minister on the sidelines of the g 7 summit. >> when a finalized plant is presented to me by the pentagon then i will share it with the american people. we don't yet have a complete strategy because it requires commitments on the part of iraqis as well. >> reporter: so no clear u.s. plan as for iraq we will take a

closer look at that in a minute but this report from dana in northern iraq. >> reporter: she grieves for her husband and oldest son and it has been a year since they were killed since islamic state of iraq and levante in mosul and little has helped to ease her pain and she is thousands of the ones displaced through the years and she says she is tired. she like others here have been displaced from mosul and feel the government is not serious about recapturing their city from i.s.i.l. >> translator: it's a conspiracy against mosul and conspiracy against the sunnis. the baghdad government is not helping us get back our city and won't give us arms to fight. >> reporter: iraq soon news say sunnis say they are unfairly treated and looked like supporters of i.s.i.l. and by the kurds in the north.

this is one of the checkpoints leading into irbil the capitol of the region in northern iraq and sunni arabs need a guarantor to enter and face restrictions entering the iraqi capitol baghdad and authorities here and the capitol argue the measures are justified for security reasons but the people feel they are being singled out as a community. there are many front lines in iraq and the divide is not only sectarian and northern iraq it's ethnic arabs on one side and kurds on the other and peshmerga forces share 1,000 kilometer front line with islamic state of iraq and levante and he was once a speaker of the kurdish parliament and he says iraq no longer exists and it should formally be divided into sunni, shia and kurdish states. he believes this new border should become permanent, speaking to him we hear evidence of the miss trust.

>> translator: my duty to them they are i.s.i.s. fighter member and not came from the sky. >> reporter: iraq has been at war with itself for many years. now there is a de defacto partition on the ground and one separates communities and one separates the community, al jazeera, northern iraq. now iraq does need u.s. help in fighting i.s.i.l. in iraq and as we mentioned earlier the prime minister abd rabbuh mansur hadi met with the president barack obama on the sidelines of g 7 summit. what he achieved is unclear but video has emerged after what can only be described as an awkward moment and a body is sitting down to obama chatting to the

imf chief and italy prime minister but the trio didn't notice him when he stood up and looks like he is trying to join the conversation and no luck he checks his watch and wanders off. the u.n. envoy on sexual violence says teenage girls abducted by i.s.i.l. are being sold in slave markets and we visited iraq and syria in april and spoke to women and girls who escaped from captivity in i.s.i.l. control and they can be traded for as little as a pack of cigarettes and they will travel to the region soon to discuss how to help victims. myanmar has sent back 150 migrants from bangladesh rescued at sea last month and put on to trucks and handed over to bangladesh guards to a bridge linking the two countries and thousands of migrants have been rescued from the sea in the past

month and people smugglers abandon them on the boats. european navys rescued 6,000 migrants from the mediterranean sea over the weekend and take end to detention centers in italy where they face uncertain future and melt met some of them on the italian island lampadusa. >> reporter: arrived in the dark not knowing exactly where they were tired and hungry and left war behind them. this is the center they were brought to on the night they got off the ship and we came back a few days later to check on them and see how they were settling in and see if they were here or some already moved on. many of the women who were rescued just a few days ago have already been relocated to sicily to another center. and hoped to join them soon.

it's over she says thanking god. in the sea i was really tired. the water was coming in and the boat was rocking. i kept my eyes closed the whole time. i had a headache and i was dizzy. >> reporter: they had been stranded on a rubber dinghy for 20 hours and they were tired and disoriented when rescuers found them and we meet them and their travel camp pan companions and he has been smiling since the rescue and at the time he will celebrate drinking ten pepsis. >> translator: have a pepsi. >> reporter: he didn't but is happy anyway. >> pepsi. >> reporter: they were very scared in libya.

sport. ♪ the u.n. has left israel and hamas off a report on countries and armed groups that violate children's rights in conflict. more than 500 palestinian children were killed in israel's bombardment of gaza last year diplomatic editor james base reports. >> reporter: the evidence is overwhelming, the aftermath of much destruction and deaths of children last summer in gaza was recorded on video. in total the u.n. said 540 children were killed yet u.n. secretary-general ban ki-moon in his annual report around the world to security council has not included israel on damning group that kill children and armed palestinian groups were on the list in the original draft

by the u.n. representative. >> the draft report had israel and palestinian arm groups on it the report you sent up stairs and back downstairs it did not have it on any more is that true? >> yes, but this means the decision of the secretary-general we are supposed to prepare the decision of the secretary-general. we are not the one who decides it. >> reporter: al jazeera learned there was high-level lobbying by israel and the u.s. to persuade ban ki-moon to keep israel off the list. >> there is really no explanation for it other than it's a political decision because the overwhelming documentation really should trigger a listing. >> reporter: did ban ki-moon bow to political pressure. >> member states have never been shy in expressing their opinion to the secretary-general of what should be in or out of the report whether it's this report this year or the previous years,

ultimately it's the secretary-general's report. he stands by it. >> reporter: you need to read this full report to see the obvious contradictions. the report says the number of palestinian school children killed in 2014 was the third highest anywhere in the world and says the number of schools damaged or destroyed was the highest anywhere in 2014 and then you look at the and ex and the list that is supposed to summarize it and listing parties and states that kill or maim children or engage in attacks on schools and israel's name is not there. james base al jazeera, united nations. we have more from west jerusalem jerusalem. >> it's unlikely israel will make an official statement with regards to not being included on that list that the u.n. secretary-general releases every year. israel of course is very sensitive when it's included in

such terms and it's very clear that the lobbying that we understand that was going on by israel and the united states was successful so the government is no doubt very pleased in saying the child rights campaigners in occupied places are upset and say you only have to look at the statistics to show that israel in their view is a repeated violator of children's rights and safetys. they they if you look at the statistics in gaza alone during israel's 50 day bombardment of the coastal strip more than 500 children were killed and hundreds more were injured and that alone would warrant israel put on that list but as we have been saying it appears lobbying by israel and the united states on the u.n. secretary-general ban ki-moon was successful and the government no doubt is very pleased at that success. egyptian court sentenced 11 people to death over a deadly riot at a foot bol match and

more than 70 fans were killed and hundreds injured when people tried to escape the stadium in 2012 and many of them were crushed to death and some witnesses say victims were thrown from teraces and the incident was the deadliest in egypt's recording history. jason revane appeared in court on iran for the second time on spying changes and faces 20 years in jail and his mother says he is guilty of nothing more than reporting on a country he loves. >> reporter: mary doesn't know what is going to happen to her son. he has been in jail in iran for almost a year. jason is the bureau chief of the u.s. newspaper the washington post. he was arrested with his wife and two photo journalists in july last year and others were released on bail. >> he is very tired, very

distressed because he doesn't understand why he is being held. as you know as journalists you have very very little access to sensitive things. >> reporter: jason has been in court twice in the last month, closed-door hearings on espionage and propaganda against iran and mary says she doesn't know how the trial is progressing. jason is a jewel citizen of the united states and iran and spent most of his life in the u.s. and in 2008 went to iran to learn more about the country. >> he is accused of being a master spy when he was reporting on a country he loves so it's very hard for him, very, very hard for him. >> reporter: the washington post has criticized jason's attention and human rights groups have also demanded his released and speculation is used as leverage at a time of nuclear

negotiations between u.s. and iran and his mother at the time of anxiety and worry over the fate of her son, al jazeera. electoral commission suggested delaying the presidential vote until next month and after zizi said he would run for a third term and accuses the media for unrest but journalists refusing to stay silent and we report. >> reporter: some journalists accused of the burundi government of sympathizing and say radio and t.v. station was destroyed by police officers and working online from another location. >> it means being in danger. it means being hated by the government by the policeman, being hated by those who are supposed to protect you and let you do your job which means also

being at the risk everyday to be killed at any time. >> the station was close to the shooting and army during the attempted coup in may and some government firms accuse local independent journalists of inciting members to protest against the president's third term bid and it's relatively calm here but you can still see the battle scars. that is the radio station that was destroyed. the police are not allowing anybody inside and some journalists have left the country, others are in hiding. government says things are different now and journalists shouldn't be afraid. >> we really want to let everybody know that the government is ready, you know to allow them to do their job as they used to do before the media outlets were destroyed. we will continue to believe that this is a country for all of its citizens including journalists. >> reporter: other independent

media houses were targeted before and after the failed coup, most people especially in rural burundi, the president's stronghold can only access from the state media. independent journalists say they won't be silenced and hoping access to internet in burundi can get the other side of the story. al jazeera. south korea says another death from respiratory syndrome or mers and brings the total killed is 7 and 2000 schools in the capitol seoul have been closed to contain the virus and 3,000 people placed in isolation. the out break is the largest outside saudi arabia where mers was discovered and it's affecting the economy as harry faucet reports from seoul's wealthyist areas. >> reporter: this is a fancy district and the street and for a walk in the sunshine. usually we would do with well to do local residents and foreign

tourists came to sample the style and we don't have the place to ourselves this is pretty much as close as you get in the congested city like seoul and local tour guides said 30-40% fewer visitors than normal and that has been the case in the latest sector and cinema say 35% fewer customers and baseball games seeing the same drop in attendances and more essential things like weekly shop we see a falling off in numbers and the two biggest supermarket chain had week on week drop of 12% in the stores but at the same time the on line grocery shopping they provide is going up and sales up 50% as people stay home and try to avoid unnecessary travel and all of this is having a significant economic impact and the government says the president says that the first priority of the government is to address this as a public health concern and eradicate the virus and eradicating the mers crisis as a

whole will only happen when the economic impact has been addressed as well. >> survivors of a u.s. spy ship attacked by israel 50 years ago demanding a new inquiry as to what actually happened and 34 sailers killed in the arab israeli six-day war in 1967 and israel said it was a case of mistaken identity but allen fisher reports from arlington cemetery in virginia we report on this. >> reporter: we find a skipper and he returns every year to the national cemetery in arlington to remember his ship mates and mark the anniversary of attack that killed 34 of them. >> when they said stand by for a torpedo hit and it picked um the ship and the ship started rolling over i said i'll never get out of this mess alive and i

said i'll never get out of this. >> reporter: chief engineer brooks was below deck when uss liberty attacks, a spy ship sitting in the water flying u.s. flag when israel attack and hit with rockets and canons and torpedo blew a hole in the ship and 171 sailers were injured and israel claimed it was mistaken identity and liberty looked like an egyptian war ship and apologized and paid compensation but he doesn't accept that. >> it was not a tragic incident it was a deliberate attack. they knew who they were. they wanted us out either to bring the americas into the war or we picked up some information about their war plans. >> reporter: every year on july the 8th the survivors gather to

mark the dead and share stories. every year the numbers who attend the service maybe going down but the passion to find out exactly what happened to the uss liberty, that remains undiminished. this year 7 survivors were presents with family friends and supporters and one says it's time for both governments to come clean on what happened. >> when you say apologize you apologize the truth, not with a lie. so it's not an apology. not as far as i'm concerned. and our government is just as bad off for going along with it. >> reporter: there have been several inquiries that covered the liberty attack and none have challenged the official account that this was simply a tragic mistake. ♪ the voices of decent were those who were there and say they deserve the truth before they mark another anniversary. allen fisher al jazeera, arlington national cemetery in

virginia. we will turn to the weather with richard and monsoon rains are causing problem in east asia, what is going on there? >> it stretches for thousands of kilometers all the way from vietnam down in the southwest up towards shanghai and on towards japan in the northeast. doesn't look that active on there but this is somewhat misleading this is typical rainfall coming from northern vietnam, 100 millimeters in 24 hours but across china we see active weather and the province we had more than 200 millimeters in 24 hours and many people have had to be evacuated from their homes. obviously some of the water falls are looking spectacular at the moment but it's what happens downstream and you can see the water rushing through and it's this destruction of infrastructure is the biggest problem, no major reports of fatalities at the moment across this region. meanwhile in eastern china we

have also had similar sort of rainfall totals reported and many people evacuated from their homes but nevertheless the situation looks messy and a lot of landslides across the region with soft oils here. looking at the forecast expecting more rain to push in across this region for the next 24 hours so looks like hong kong will see some fairly heavy rain moving through to thursday and rain pushing up to shanghai once again, jane. >> thanks for that and effects of last december's oil spill on the yangtze is being felt when it collided with a cargo vessel and sank and man groves are a world heritage site and home to the bengal tiger and only 270 of them left in the wild. the oil leaked into nearby rivers and waterways where rare species live including dolphin

2.5 million people live in villages along the shoreline and many are fisherman and we report on how they are dealing with the spill almost six months on. >> reporter: for fisherman like this man things are finally getting back to normal. several months after a massive oil spill fish are starting to return. >> translator: some fish died right when the spill happened and we couldn't catch much during those days and the river started to recover and it's now about the usual amount of fish. >> reporter: environmental activists feared the worst last december when the oil tanker sank in a protected dolphin sanctuary and fortunately damage was limited. a u.n. report found the tides had quickly washed all the oil out to sea and the damage was minimal and so are the lessons learned. this cargo vessel is going up the same route and protected river where the oil spill took

place six months ago. the captain of the ship says he has no choice and has to use it regularly because it's the only way to get the cement he is carrying into the rest of the country. with ships continuing to transport oil, fertilizer and cement another potential disaster seemed inevitable and on may 5 a ship carrying 200 tons of fertilizer sank nearby and the environmental damage is yet to be assessed but environmental concerns are dismissed by ship owners. >> translator: i want to say this with all due respect to environmental activists, what do these people do they just stage protest rallies about the environment and give speeches and don't do anything aside from that yet somehow they have very nice cars very nice houses. i don't know how they are given the money. >> reporter: while commercial traffic continues to flow through the sand sanctuary he

is not allowed access and government banned fishing in parts of the rain forest because of concerns of over fishing and he was one of the first to join the cleanup after the december spill either to save their waters from the pollution. six months on he doesn't see much of a future for him in the rain forest which is not just the source of his livelihood but also his home. al jazeera, bangladesh. stay with us here on al jazeera and still ahead surrounded by high-rise buildings and on prime land we find out how this historic village the last of its kind survived and i'm in hong kong. i'm paul in austria where a mountain bike is hitting new heights. ♪

the best advice and the knowledge that reaching out to the population and reenfranchising that population is really the only effective way to deal with the threat that the islamic state poses. >> yeah because up until recently they are relying on shia groups and know what happened there with the retribution killings. >> yeah absolutely. i mean the government is still overly relying on the iran backed shia malitias to a, protect key territory like the capitol baghdad and also to take care of recapturing territory from islamic state places like tick rid and ramadi but we know that the local sunni population will not take well and will not respond well particularly in favor in terms of the government to the shia malitias being used to recapture territory and for many of the tribes they prefer to live under islamic state which is a sunni group and be

liberated by iran backed malitias and acted on what is an iran staged government. >> it seems that iraq and u.s. are constantly taken by surprised and surprised at the beginning of the growth of i.s.i.l. and the speed in which they were able to claim territory. they are constantly on the back foot and surprised by the group's arsenal and effect they have fleets of humvees for example. >> well absolutely and what it really speaks to is the fact that the iraqi security forces are not in the condition they need to be and i think that a lot of the kind of frustration in the community relating to this has spilled out with president obama's kind of comment to the g 7 summit yesterday and feel very much that more needs to come from the iraqi government itself in terms of helping to create a nonsectarian armed forces that is well trained, that is

essentially capable of standing and going toe to toe with islamic state and constantly reacting to the group's first moves and always on the back foot and maybe to situations. >> sure, in other appropriate or adequate partner when it comes to the u.s. and i ask you that because i'm hearing that 35 top ranked interior officials have been removed and this is the second time we have seen this sort of shuffle this year alone. what is going on there? >> well it seems there is kind of constant frustration, the ability of the iraqi armed fores to take on the islamic state and seems we have seen this constantly over the course of this year and last year and even with constant consistent accurate u.s. coalition led air strikes in iraq the islamic state is capable of launching further attacks, taking further territory and holding the

territory it has already gained. you think this would be unthinkable really with the combination of u.s. air power and the significant and numerous well trained iraqi security forces but the islamic state has capabilities is leading to kind of very serious questions being asked of the armed forces by both baghdad and the international community. >> right, you were talking earlier about all the players and iran and the fact there are air strikes that are not successful and working alongside iraq, are we likely to see boots on the ground now any time soon is that the next step? >> i get the feeling that is extremely unlikely. i think there is no appetite in the international community particularly in the u.s. and western europe to get reinvolved military on the ground in iraq. i think at the moment the focus is still very much going to be refining the training process. so putting pressure on the iraqi

government to hear much more concerted way to the training program to ensure that the iraqi security forces are trained to have the capability to take on islamic state. but also putting pressure on the iraqi government to fast tract the creation of a sunni armed force so a local sunni armed force that will act on behalf of the government to take back territory from the islamic state and predominately sunni areas in western and northern iraq. >> wonder if they are listening, good to talk to you thank you very much. all the sport still to come on the news hour tampa bay puts it on the line trying to clinch the stanley cup, details in a minute plus. in knoxville, tennessee driving the world east first 3d printed car. ♪
