one year since the capture of the iraqi city of mosul, we report what life is like under i.s.i.l. control. i'm ghosh in doha, also coming up on the programme - displaced by the war in yemen, we speak to some forced to live in desperate conditions. the m.e.r.s. violence outbreak prompts south korea to close more schools, gapes the advice of the world health organisation and this story from afghanistan. >> i'm nicole johnson. coming up, we'll be on a

roadtrip through the mountainous and remote province to find out what development there has been. the u.s. is planning to establish a new military base in iraq's anbar province. it's the first major shift in the plan against i.s.i.l. president obama is considering sending hundreds of troops to iraq to train local forces. the city of ramadi, the capital, was overrun by i.s.i.l. last month. iraqi forces are having to plan how to retake the city. mosul is another city that i.s.i.l. has under their control. it's been a year since they seized it. iraq's government, at the time under under nouri al-maliki at the time declared sa state of emergency. mosul is the second largest city, home to around 8 million people. hundreds, thousands, fled after i.s.i.l. moved in.

erbil was the destination for most of them fleeing. zeina khodr is on the outskirts of mosul. . >> the road behind me is the road to mosul. a few kilometers from here is the i.s.i.l. controlled city. we have no access to i.s.i.l. we have to rely on contacts inside and people that speak to family and friends. people are cut off from the rest of the country, they are not allowed to leave. if they do, they have to prove they are coming back - paying a large amount of money, which they don't have or provide a guarantee, like their house. they are cut off from the rest of the country. people complain about jobs. i.s.i.l. regulate everything - tell women what to wear and are running the schools. what we understand from people is they are gratedueding -- graduating young boys from the school, almost like breeding a new generators of supporters.

if they lose territory, they have support on the ground. it will not be an easy battle to retake mosul. it's a big city. the kurds surround mosul from three direction, but i.s.i.l. controls supply lines and are able to reach strongholds in we were syria and iraq. uninterpreted supply lines, i.s.i.l. strong in the city. they have placed concrete barriers as a line of defense, and the governments has not announced a date for the planned military operation in fact plans seem to have been stalled and the kurds have no plan to advance towards a sunni arab city because it will cause difficulties for them. they'll play a supporting role. let's talk to imran khan from baghdad. what is the iraq government

planning to do with mosul. >> there are plans for mosul, but they will not be acted on soon. the priority is anbar, and retaking the city where the security forces and shia militias and coalition air strikes are focussing on. nil control two major border crossings from syria to anbar, which which they can enforce and create problems, mosul, if it happens, is likely to follow the same patterns that we have seen in the south. it will be shia militia, iraqi security forces, the main fighting forcers. mosul backed up by kurdish peshmerga and the coalition air strikes. a lot of people are not sure of how useful they are where you

have a large civilian population. there's a conversation that what they would like the special forces embedded with the forces who can call in an air strike better, quicker and more accurately than the iraqis can. if that happens, it will be what the americans call a game change are, because it's unlikely to happen because mosul will not happen for a long time to come. anbar province is the priority why is that given that mosul fell before ramadi and has been under i.s.i.l. control for a year. >> one of the main reasons is it's up in the north. the iraqi army haven't pushed past the i.s.i.l. controlled areas in becamingy, where -- baiji where they are still fighting there's a number of problems getting supply lines from baghdad, all the way up to the north, and the coalition air

strikes are a problem. i.s.i.l. is entrenched in the city. hiding among the civilians. it's not as easy mounting the air strikes, and anbar province it's a big reason you have the sunnis, sol of whom pledged allegiance to i.s.i.l. and some pledging allegiance to the government. the fight is one they need to prioritise, mainly because it is as i say, closer to baghdad. mosul is a priority. given all the challenges that iraq faces, they can't fight on all of the fronts at the same timement. >> thank you. imran khan in baghdad there nine fighters from the lebanese armed group hezbollah have been killed following an attack by i.s.i.l. near the syrian border happening on the outskirts of the village. hezbollah is reporting that 14 i.s.i.l. gunmen died. fighting is continuing between the groups across the border in

syria the syrian observatory for human rights released grim figures after more than four years of conflict. 230,000 people lost their lives in syria's war. nearly 110,000 civilian deaths have been recorded nearly 11,000 children and 7,000 women. nearly 50,000 soldiers lost their lives fighting on behalf of the regime. in yemen, there has been saudi-led air tricks the latest attack hitting a building in sanaa under houthi control. they have also targeted the homes of military commanders allied with the rebels. many fled the violence by escaping to other violence in yemen. some are in worse demonstration -- conditions.

around 2,500 families moved from the north and are appealing for help. caroline malone reports. this woman moved her family and handicapped husband hundreds of kilometres to the safety of this camp. she's one of thousands struggling to survive in war-torn yemen. >> i have two kids and a disabled husband. he has a medical problem with his hand and can't work. we are waiting for his public job to provide us with whatever we can use to support us. so far they've only given us enough to set up the tent, we are stuck in the rain and cold at night. nearby families have set up empty schools or government buildings, and they have four walls to protect them. many are crammed into a small space, and they rely on handouts. after we left our homes, we felt lost, we are not used to begging for a living. we live in peace, and are waiting for someone to help us. we need good people that can hep us get something to eat. we have no homes, no jobs. >> help is coming into yemen from organizations like doctors

without boarders, also known as mfs. they have flown in more than 100 tonnes of medical aid. since the fighting between saudis and the houthi rebels. as the numbers of i.d.p.s increased, sanitation kits and mobile health clinics have been introduced by mfs. aid groups can only do so much. >> one, for the lack of fuel, people cannot move. they find security reasons because of air strikes, ground fighting, insecurity globally, and also access to health care. there is no - not much drugs coming in right now. >> the fighting in yemen cut people off from many of the basic things they need. for every parent relying on aid to get by, there are many other dependent on them for their own survival. security has been intensified at tourist sites

across egypt after a suicide bomber and two gunmen attacked a temple in laksal. one police officer was wounded. a member of happ as was killed by -- hamas was killed by paramilitary police men. border police say they were on an operation and fired weapons when he received or was perceived to throw a pipe bomb at him. he was killed when he came out of a mosque. let's get the latest from imtiaz tyab who joins us from west jerusalem. tell us more about the operation. >> in the early hours of the morning, a young man in his 20s was shot dead in the janine refugee camp in the occupied west bank by israeli military forces. the man was shot in the back and

he died before arriving at hospital. as you mentioned, there are dispute claims surrounding how he died. according to people in the area this young man was coming out of a mosque when shot by the u.s. rally forces. the israeli forces are saying that he was throwing an. >> ed or a pipe bomb in their direction. at this statement it's still unclear as to what happened but the fact remains that this young man has been shot dead in - in the janine refugee camp. this is the first killing we have seen by israeli forces in around two months and typically when the shootings happen. of course it causes anger on the streets, but given the fact that the israeli security forces are positioned across the occupied west bank we are not expecting major skirmishes. the situation in the camp is

extremely tense. >> okay there has been several arrests of hamas members. is this part of a broader crackdown? you're right. in fact just yesterday around 14 people were arrested right across the occupied qiang wang. a number of them belonging to hamas, and others belonging to other armed groups in the qiang wang. it's usual for israeli security forces to crack down on these groups, but, again, we should underscore in the occupied west bank hamas does not have the power or influence that it does in other palestinian territory. still, that doesn't mean the israeli authorities, and to a lesser extent other palestinian authorities don't view them as problematic in the west bank and that's why we see the arrests. according to eyewitnesss, in the

back by israeli security forces will not do anything to calm down the situation there. >> imtiaz tyab in west jerusalem there south korea closed more schools in the capital seoul as a precaution against the m.e.r.s. virus. that is against the vision of the world health organisation. so far nine people have died from middle eastern respiratory syndrome. hong kong taiwan and macau issued warnings advising people not to travel to see area. >> the president postponed a visit to the united states in light of the outbreak harry fawcett reports. >> at seoul medical center, the common cold is taken more seriously than ever. anyone with mild symptoms - a cough, a fever - is brought here for screening, kept away from patients in the main building. those suspected with m.e.r.s. are treated in isolation, anyone confirmed is quarantined. >> translation: as we share information the atmosphere will be more cooperating.

in putting this under control. this week will be a major watershed moment. >> inside the measures taken to protect staff and other patients are on display. >> there are eight patients with m.e.r.s. currently they are being treated in this hospital. they have been brought here from other hospitals with the december, so the risk of infection elsewhere in the facility is minimal. the government is saying that other patients have been presenting themselves and are concerned about the spread from hospital to hospital. >> the acting prime minister telling anyone who suspects they may have m.e.r.s. to stay put. everyone else should live life as normal. >> translation: please refrain from overreaction. do engage in regular activity, such as travelling at weekends. the government will see life and help and curb the spread of m.e.r.s. >> half the confirmed cases from

contracted in southern seoul. officials say the numbers will decline, if it has been limited to a hospital outbreak. inside visiting experts were trying to establish why m.e.r.s. was spread rapidly through medical facilities. concern that the virus may have got out into the population is causing companies to take precautions. even if others are not so assured. >> translation: the cameras are to detect people who are already showing symptoms, meaning the virus dispersed. it's like prescribing medicine after the death has occurred. there's an attempt to provide unified attempts. real reassurance will come if and when there's a sustained increase in the number of infections.

>> there were no paved roads until three years ago. when this one was built. it connects dozens of poor villages. unfortunately, it ends here. 14 years ago the taliban destroyed the market. now it's peaceful. because the hazaras are muslims, and don't support the taliban. the taliban, an ultra conservative sunni movement is opposed to shias. >> there's no work or business for shopkeepers. the government helped other provinces. in bamiyan they didn't do much. i don't know why. maybe it's because we are peaceful. i'm here all day and can't feed my family. >> there are a few signs of progress in the district capital. there's only enough electricity to turn on the lights for a couple of hours a night. if you can afford it. power costs 10 times more. than it does in kabul. there's no public transport

with this. a string of six natural lakes. this national park is a symbol of how much potential they have. there has been some development, it's far behind most of the rest of afghanistan. what it needs is running water, paved roads and electricity. there is, however, one major advantage in bamiyan. that is security. a rare thing in afghanistan the arrival of smartphones the indian army reportedly entered myanmar to conduct operations against the rebel groups. they were planning attacks in places like manny purr. the army lawned a ground offensive. it's in response to the killing of 18 soldiers in manny purr --
