5:00 pm
>> hello, i'm lauren taylor. this is the news hour live from london. coming up, turkish fighter jets launch attacks on syria and iraq as it grows every deeper in the battle against isil. after months of violence burundi's elections in opposition. and the third trip to kenya by an u.s. sitting president.
5:01 pm
>> hello, we'll have all your sports including usain bolt back from injury and back to his best at the diamond league meeting. we'll have the rest in today's news. >> hello after four years of reluctance turkey has been drawn into the battle against islamic state in iraq and the levant. they have launch airstrikes before entering syrian and iraqi air space to carry out those attacks. the police have carried out security raids as part of an operation spanning 13 provinces. suspects are now in custody including workers from the outlawed kurdish party. they said they will not makes a distinction between the two groups.
5:02 pm
isil has been blamed carrying out an offensive that killed more than 30 people. well let's go to the border town tell us about the latest strikes we're hearing about. >> well, lauren, these are local media reports that are saying that f-16 fighter jets have taken off from an air base. this is the same base that the f-16 took off last night took off in order to bomb isil targets. now, eyewitnesses are telling local media that these planes possibly as many as 20, some are heading to the border with syria, some to northern iraq. if that proves to be true, then it would appear as though turkey would be launching more attacks on both isil and possibly pkk targets in northern iraq. as you mentioned turkey today
5:03 pm
will make no distinction on their fight on terror that they'll go after groups as isil as vigorously like the vigorous as the groups like kurdistan workers party. this has been a game changer of a day when it comes to turkey. there has been escalation as far as their fight against isil. the turkish government are in a bit of a bind right now. they're under pressure to show that they're going after groups such as isil. there's been a lot of criticism over the turkish government saying that they turned a blind eye to groups like isil coming and going to turkey and back, and there is anger from the kurdish communist in the southern part of the country saying they were made a lot less safe. turkish government, of course, maintaining that it's not true.
5:04 pm
saying that those are nefarious lies but today they're announcing that they're firmly fighting against terror. for sure there will be more bombing raids. they've enhanceed coordination with u.s. and they'll be able to utilize bases in turkey from which to bomb isil targets. a lot of moving parts. a lot of stuff going on now in turkey that had not been before. the turkish government trying to show that it's committed against the fight against terror. a lot of people thought they were reluctant to join in the past, and it seems that there will be more planes taking off turkish air bases in the next days and weeks to come in order to go after these targets. possibly in both syria and iraq. one more thing to mention. it is unclear if these planes will have actually gone into syria or northern iraq because
5:05 pm
earlier in the day there have been reports that the bombing raids that happened last night those turkish planes had entered syrian air space when turkey's government has maintained that they carried out those bombing raids from turkish air space. >> thank you very much, indeed, for those updates. >> thanks. >> well, a little earlier the turkish president urged his to trust his government. >> our state and government will take needed action against any attack no matter what it is. it is not only for last night we'll take necessary precaution force our nation's security and peace. last night was just the start of this, and we'll keep going on the same way. >> we're a different struggle for now on. we'll do whatever is needed in this struggle. our nation should trust their
5:06 pm
states. >> al jazeera's roslind jordan sent us this update from washington, d.c. >> the obama administration is welcoming turkey's decision to allow the u.s. military to use two air bases near the turkish border with syria. that's going to make it a lot easier for u.s. fighters to actually launch air attacks on isil targets in northern syria. right now they're having to fly from much farther distances from the gulf as well as aircraft carriers, outside of saudi arabia in order to reach those targets. they say this is going to make the efforts trying to degrade isil targets and operations much easier. now, what is not clear is what actually happened in the negotiations between the u.s. and the turkish authorities to allow these air bases to be used used. the turks have wanted to create
5:07 pm
a buffer zone inside northern syria in order to protect its territory from isil. it's also wanted to try to establish a formal no-fly zone, something that u.s. officials said would be problematic at best, and probably extremely difficult to carry out at worst. and then there is also the question of whether the u.s. is making any inducements or offering any inducements to the turkish government because the turks have apparently backed away from their demand that the fight against isil be expanded to an over all fight against the government of bashar al-assad, someone that the turkish government considers an enemy to their country. for the moment the obama administration says that this is a shoring up of the forces, the coalition forces against isil, but it may come out in coming days just exactly what the turkish government is getting in exchange for allowing a key military installation to be used
5:08 pm
in this fight against isil. >> well, we spoke to an analyst at ihs, thank you for coming in. how much of a tactical shift is this these airstrikes into syria? >> well, until now, as you know, turkey has been pursuing a possible non-intervention against the islamic state. but now we see the incursion into syria with the airstrikes continuing today turkey is presenting a completely reversal of policy thus far with regards to the islamic state. >> there have been further attacks in northern iraq. explain to us why it would seem these actually would be pkk camps. explains to us what is going on in this two-pronged attack. >> well, in terms of connection with the recent incursion against the islamic state to the pkk one of the main interests is the prevention of the
5:09 pm
establishment of the continue gusgus it's pretty much in the same force as the same force that has rated in turkey in the past several years. >> what is your interpretation whether there has been a deal with the u.s. whether the u.s. will be able to use air paces and what do you think the price has been in that deal, do you think there is such a deal? >> most probably question. the concession that the turks must have made against the islamic state. the u.s. had been pressuring the turks until recently for tush can i to take a stance, and in return for this, turkey is probably receiving some sort of assurance from the americans with regards to curtailing the ongoing kurdish expansion. >> how much of a concern is
5:10 pm
there for domestic backlash against what the turkish government is doing? >> there are several things to watch out for. first of all retaliatory attacks by the he's lack am state. it is reported that there are widespread sleeper sales throughout the country. most of which has been cleared but there is ongoing risk of attacks. on top of that, the risk of a backlash from the grassroots of the pkk affiliated with the kurdish movement in northern syria. >> in terms of the timing there must be an attack on suruc but is this linked to the iran nuclear deal? >> of course the syrian conflict to an extent has been a manfy station for a sectarian power struggle. on the other side of which was iran. having secured iran's support
5:11 pm
for the islamic government, which is prompting a sent sense of urgentcy on behalf of turkey. >> thank you very much indeed. more humanitarian aid has arrived in yemen. they have arrived at aden airport. until now aden has been inaccess inaccessible to aid and 13 million people are in need of food. they brought in equipment to reopen the airport four months after the civil war shut it down. a top adviser to iran's supreme leader said that inspectors should not have access to military sites despite a landmark nuclear deal, which the country agreed to last tuesday. foreign minister in iran for more than 15 years in 1980s and 1990s, he told al jazeera access to the sites would not be
5:12 pm
allowed. >> away from the interpretations i say clearly that access to military sites are not allowed. the access of any foreignerser international inspectors, into military sites will not be allowed. we will not allow that regardless of the cost. this is the final word. >> speaking of that, it is an independent country and it said its different than iran's fight against isil and iraq. >> we have to sit at the same table. it does not mean that policies will remain ideal to ours. but we have common points. let's agree that the islamic world must be protected from any external attacks. and our countries must be protected from the zionist attacks. we as muslim countries we have
5:13 pm
to be capable. we are ready for that and ready to provide all of our expertise even our new england issues to our neighbors. the islamic report does not believe in divisions between countries that it thinks is artificial. there have been a key role in this. when they stop doing that no differences will remain between us. >> now professor of international relations, thank you very much for coming in. just to go back to the interview, how controversial of a figure is he? >> he is a confident of the commander in chief. very close. he speaks for the commander in chief. whatever he says must be taken very serious. he's really speaking for the top leadership in iran. >> what does that signify? >> there are some major differences, as you know compared to what the
5:14 pm
international community has and the iranian leadership. you see the measure reform is that the international community, the u.n. inspectors won't have a direct right to inspect the military sites. they have not an unfettered right, so they have first to seek permission from the iranian leadership to inspect military sites. this is where the difference lies between the fettered and unfettered inspection. >> and on the issue of regional reconciliation, when you talk about yemen and what is saudi arabia's interference there, what likely is there given the suspicion that they have come up. >> in his interview he made two major points. the first point must be critical. he said the intervention violates the sovereignty of
5:15 pm
yemen. but he also says that let's open a new page. we have differences with saudis. let's sit down and resolve our differences. i'm afraid this would not carry much weight for the saudis. the saudis say actions speak louder than words. iran must stop interveneing into other affairs. and into other regimes. there is a huge divide between the iranian point of view and the saudi. >> the nuclear deal mentioned that there would need to be the cooperation of iran, and buy in from russians, turks and gulf partners. do you think this mindset is something that could shift on theon the ground? >> you ask a very important question. the americans believe the nuclear deal could bring out a
5:16 pm
shift in relationship with iran's neighbors. by integrating iran into the international system, iran could play a positive role in syria helping to bring about to really broker a political settlement, while some of the opposition and saudis and arab states believe in fact, the nuclear deal would empower iran and iran would not make any major concessions. you have two opposing points of view. we have to wait and see how the next few weeks and months show the leadership,. >> thank you very much. >> still to come in the news hour. war-weary iraqis face new troubles as the country's economic woes deepen. and continuing to call on the government to demand greater investment. and in sport real madrid's team
