bing . >> hello there, this the al jazeera live from london. also coming up, another day of violence across israel and the occupied territories. four palestinians killed, five israelis wounded. in berlin, thousands have turned out to say no to the world's biggest trade agreement that few people really know

anything about and the new law that's good for the environment but could threaten the livelihood livelihoods of florida's gladesmen at least 86 people are deaned more than 180 injured following twin blasts at a peace rally in turkey. kurdish opposition fighters believe they were the target of the attack but the prime minister says kurdish pkk fighters are also suspect. it's also been suggested that isis or leftist groups might be responsible. here's our first report. >>reporter: calls for peace drowned by the sounds of explosions. this was the moment a bomb

targeted a peace rally in the turkish capital. death and chaos ensued. this was the scene moments after. dozens reported killed instantly. the final death toll is still unclear, however. hundreds of turks had gathered to participate in a peace rally organized by trade unions and other groups wanting to resume peace talks between the government and the pkk. >> there was a demonstration. i was walking next to a rally truck. right here behind two banners an explosion went off. we lay on the ground. the second bomb went off there. there were two bombs but the one that went off here was a very strong one. >>reporter: the security situation in turkey has become volatile in recent months. the peace process between the government and the pkk has all but collapsed. the pkk has

killed more than 40 soldiers in recent months and the turkish army has conducted several ache strikes against fighters. the economy and party politics may have topped the agenda in the last election. now it seems security or the lack of it is becoming a concern for many. turkey's prime minister spoke to the media after a meeting of security chiefs. >> there is no single citizen who doesn't share the deep sorrow of those who have lost their loved ones in this attack. we are in a period where we're going toward an election. this is obvious that our democracy has been a target. i am offering my condolences to the families of those who lost their lives. i hope they'll rest in peace. there is indication go suicide

bombers have been involved in the incident. >> the exact cause is still being investigated by authorities. the turkish government has branded the incident a terror attack. and the peoples democratic party claims those explosions were targeting its members. >>reporter: you can tell how stunned residents here are. on the way to the train station, the streets were practically deserted at a time when there is usually high traffic, people indoors worried something else might happen. very worried about the situation. right outside the train station, there are still forensic correct investigators combing the scene, looking for evidence, looking for clues. it is a very sad scene. there are still blood stains all around the train station, on cars, on sidewalks, there is broken glass, and there are

peace signs littering the way because of that peace rally that was being held earlier in the day. so a very sad scene and security very much stepped up here right now trying to deal with this, trying to complete this investigation at a time of great worry in turkey. >> for more on the situation there, i'm joined by an analyst at the international think tank in turkey. a very warm welcome to the program. watching these pictures at this rally, people joyfully making their calls known and then this blast goes off. it's hard to get your head around it. i can only imagine the real sense of shock. what do you think the message is that is trying to be sent by the attackers? >> i think perpetrators and it looks like it was two suicide bombers as indicated by the prime minister wanting to send a message to this pro-kurdish and leftist rally that tremendous be

targeted, and it was close to the elections that take place in november. so it was designed to scare off the public and perhaps to affect the results of the elections. >> and the situation in syria, did that make an attack like this inevitable? >> i think that turkey's increasing involvement in the syrian conflict made this attack more likely. it's not the first time. there were similar attacks in june against the rally by the pro-kurdish peoples democratic party as well as on the syrian border in july in which around 33 pro-kurdish activists were killed. >> and what sort of affect could this have on the prime minister's popularity.

>> only 20% of turks supported turkeys activist policy towards syria. and the region of this attack, the heart of turkey may have negative implications on the presidents popularity. >> will the elections still go ahead? >> most likely they will. i think it's also most likely that the ruling justice development party founded by the president will most likely not achieve a parliamentary majority. thank you. four palestinians killed in

another day of violence across israel and the occupied territory. in gaza a 13-year-old and 11-year-old have been killed in clashes with israeli troops. earlier in the west bank two palestinians were shot dead after carrying out separate stabbing attacks in jerusalem. one of those injured was a police officer and was in fact shot by his colleagues as they attempted to kill the attacker the unrest began several weeks ago now at the al-aqsa mosque compound in east jerusalem. palestine fears israel wants to change the rules governing access to the site. mike hannah joins us live now. it's been another tense day. >>reporter: indeed, yes. within israel and in the occupied territory, constant clashes, demonstrations, and

knife attacks within israel. these, a sequence of ongoing attacks. the attacks in the course of today taking part in occupied east jerusalem. both roughly the same site outside the damascus gate. but a sign of the angry mood, a sign of the frustration inherent within the society, and i sign of the anger one finds in the occupied west bank in particular. >> what does this tell us about the broader context of what's going on at the moment? >>reporter: it conveys a sense of frustration, the death of whatever peace process remains certainly delivered a mortal blow to those who hoped that there would be some kind of peaceful resolution, that there

would be a two-state solution with palestinians and israelis living peacefully side by side. the situation you are seeing today, very far from that indeed. and the anger has been welling in recent weeks and months. clearly there's been a focus point, and that is the al-aqsa mosque compound. concerns among palestinians that israel wants to change the rules as to access to that particular site. but that is just part of the issue. the problem is that of occupation, an occupation that perhaps a decade ago they thought would be ending soon but now it's a new generation of palestinians continuing to exist and survive and live in the occupation that your parents and grandparents did. >> mike, thank you. a number of people have been wounded in a triple bomb attack in chad. the blast targeted a market and

refugee camp. the attack was carried out by boko haram according to security forces. what details do we have right now? >>reporter: everything is canceled in this area. the security forces -- [inaudible]

trade rules and standards. >>reporter: hundreds are out on the streets worried about an assault on european and u.s. society by transnational company's. >>reporter: when it's concluded, it will create the world's largest free-trade zone, a market of 800 million people that could add $100 billion a year to economic output on both sides of the atlantic. in practice, it could affect everything from jobs to your income, healthcare, to the food you eat. and there are many critics. >> i'm not sure if it will happen all that quickly, but my urgent advice to everybody who wants rules for globalization is you can't be nervous when it comes to negotiating with the motherland of globalization. as a european, you must consciously engage with this issue. >> we fear that the social

standards, especially the standards for workers will decrease. >> we don't like how it's undermining our democracy and giving more power to big companies. >> you don't belief the government? >> no. >> is the government telling you anything? >> they don't tell us nothing. it looks really bad. >>reporter: they argue that in seeking parity between the e.u. and the u.s., all that will be achieved is mediocrity. controversially, say campaigners, it's being negotiated largely in secret, a trojan horse being driven into the heart of our economies and lives, and no one really knows what's inside three people have been killed in the north of iraq

little to stop russian jets from targeting this region. they have been hit almost on a daily basis. rebel commanders worry because they say they don't have the weapons needed to fight this battle. >> we are prepared for a night and our morale is high, but we don't have enough ammunition. particularly, antiarmor missiles. we don't that have here. >>reporter: the rebel-controlled enclave is under a blockade. it's been like that for years. the only way out is to pass through army checkpoints. many groups with different ideologies operate in this area of syria. they have united with manslaughter conservative fighters such as al nusra. they say the threat requires they put their differences aside. >> we've created a joint operations room and united our forces. the big groups have come together to confront the

upcoming offensive. >>reporter: people in the villages have reported deaths among civilians and what they believe were russian air strikes over the past week. 300,000 people live in the northern homs countryside. they say conditions are bad. >> it's a desperate situation. the prices are too high. the regime controls the roads so they can control the prices. >>reporter: it's on a main highway and is an important route. for the opposition, it is important not to lose its last remaining stronghold in a province known as the capital of the revolution. al jazeera, beirut the philippines has some of the highest numbers of mental health cases in southeast asia

but the stigma attached to the disease causes many to hughes their illness. -- hide their illness. >>reporter: every day is a struggle for alice. she was diagnosed with depression seven years ago and doesn't want to be identified. that was the only time she'd seen a psychiatrist. she was in hospital after trying to take her own life. >> i'm sure there's a lot of people who suffer from that. nobody knows about it because nobody actually talks about it. >>reporter: the philippines reportedly has the highest incidents of depression in southeast say that but experts say only a third of those troubled will seek help. they are afraid of losing their jobs or bringing shame to their families and they would rather hide their problems.

management plan and now that plan is ready to be implemented meaning the end of air boating except for captains who can prove they used the area in 1989. it's 1.5 million acres in size. in 1989, private air boat owners were allowed allowed on 109,000 acres. now they're limited to 25,000 acres. the new plan goes into effect in the coming weeks. >> clearly there will be some back and forth about what is and is not allowed and how they'll be enforced. those are small details in the grand scheme of things. as we talk further, there will be an outcome on that's good on the business side of things. >> eventually there's going to be no gladesmen in this area. no private individuals that
