and jeanene north of ramala and within the city itself and the lock down of the city to palestinians, an unprecedented security step by israel will continue to the end of the holiday which occurs at sunown tonight, also at sun down tonight netanyahu is holding a meeting of the full cabinet to discuss what further measures should be taken and we have seen tension wide conflict despite the security measures already put in place or maybe because of them, sammy. >> now the prime minister is stepping up even more security measures, even those internationally condepositioned like house demolitions. >> reporter: well, indeed yes and we are not sure what the prime minister is thinking of at this stage, that will become very clear after the cabinet meeting but it's very clear to see exactly what more can be

done and prime minister netanyahu has already referred to stepping up house demolitions and something condemned in international law which the home of an attacker is destroyed by israeli army forces and this is done for a period of time and not always executed. we have seen it executed in recent days in particular following the shooting in the old city that claimed two israeli lives and two attackers also being shot and certainly we have seen strong arm measures being put into place and also an intensification of measures that have always been used in the past but the fact that we are still talking about a situation that appears to be at times out of control certainly that is what many political movements within israel think including some members of netanyahu's own government according to their statements, these measures appear to be trying to control the situation, manage the situation, not seek any solution to it, this has been an on going

issue, strong arm measures have clearly failed, there is evidence by the fact that the conflict potential lessons not at all. >> mike hanna there from east jerusalem. after afghanistan attack they have gone back and forth between the sides and afghan forces appear to have the upper hand and we are just south of kunduz. >> reporter: the epicenter under the control of afghan security forces but i talked with the preventel council member and he told me that he is not sure, they are not sure that afghan security forces alone are capable to keep that security of the city for a long time. he says without the international border support on the ground and also at the airport afghan forces would not be able to keep the city for

refugees must register before continuing their journey further into europe and what is expected out of these talks and do the people behind you have high hopes? >> well, there will certainly be some help in brussels to get help to deal with the problem and here is why and this is the pressure and the local processing and reception center and 4,000 people a day they recon have passed through given paperwork they can go along a well-trodden route to germany and the town absolutely over run by refugees and trying to get them on buses to push them to croatia border where they become somebody else's problem and most got to europe crossing the sea from turkey where there are believes to be up to two million syrian refugees living in increasingly difficult conditions, that is why this crisis is at the top of the

talks they will be and shunned by leaders by the perceived authoritarian views but the tables have turned and they really need his help and what they are hoping sammy is to get him to agree to take measures to improve the lives of those living in turkey so they see a reason to work and the europeans may offer more money to help that along or as another step on the long road to european union membership but he may ask for much more and may want them to go quiet in his criticism of the government and policies and may want them to look the other way as he does what he feels is necessary to win majority of elbow elections coming up. >> still struggling with the

flow of people. >> absolutely and grappling with the idea of a quota some imposed by brussels and all the countrys who disagree and some countries are much improved in their dealing with this crisis in serbia and macedonia and greece are pushing people through at a deep rate but there are disagreements over the long-term handling of this crisis which is surely testing and almost a breaking point the very foundation of unity upon which this european union is based. >> jona is there and stay with us here on al jazeera, still to come grief and horror in burundi and the latest people of the violence tied up and shot at close range and bad -- baghdad green zone is now opened up in more than a decade. ♪
