syria. >> and nepal, devastating its earthquake, affecting the country's biggest festivals. >> the israeli government unveiled a raft of security measures tackling a wave of unref. the new rules signed off by the security cabinet following binyamin netanyahu's promise to take aggressive steps to end violence. in the latest attacks, the palestinian man and three israelis were killed. since the start of the year many have died. more jewish visits to the holy site has increased tension, of the there's palestinian frustration at israeli occupation and the expansion of

settlement in violation of disagreesments on international law. mick hannah reports. >> reporter: spot checks of palestinians, police searching for weapons in the streets of jerusalem. the cameraman is told not to cause a disorder. this is a regular search. random searches in the old city. this palestinian resident told us that he'd been stopped and searched four times since leaving his house a short while before. the intensified security in the streets coming after renewed attacks. the most serious taking place on the seem line between west jerusalem and the occupied east. israeli police say two palestinians accorded it. paramedics on the scene say israelis were killed, a number

injured. the city said mayor on the scene. attacker was shot dead. the second was injured. >> this followed an attack in a nearby suburb of west jerusalem. israeli police say a palestinian drove the car into a bus station and leapt out and attempted to stab bystanders. another israeli killed. the attacker was arrested. earlier a bus station was the target of an attack. a number of israelis were likely wounded by what israeli police say was a knife attack. the palestinian arrested. increased deployment of police appears to have had little success in stopping random and sporadic attacks. >> grow perception is no place is safe. every bus station and street corner is a scene of attack.

unlike surges of palestinian resistance, this time there's no organizers to arrest, no chain of command to cut. the israeli prime minister emerged from a meeting extinguish security cabinet to make a statement. >> israel will settle the score with murderers, killers, and those that try to murder and assist them. i'm calling on the head of the palestinian authority to stop lying, stop the incitement. let's take a look at the security measures. the government has called up reservists. security forces have been deployed throughout jerusalem's public transport network. police have now authorities to impose the neighbourhoods of jerusalem. palestinians could have their right to live in the city revoked and property confiscated.

the government authorised the demolition of houses belonging to those responsible for the attacks a rally in the north in protest against jewish visits to the al-aqsa mosque compound. more than a dozen members took part in a peaceful demonstration. schools, businesses and public institutions were closed on tuesday in a show of solidarity. u.s. denounced the violence. the secretary of state says he'll travel to the region to resolve the crisis. >> the united states condemns terrorist attacks against israeli civilians. and they have resulted in the murder now of three israelis and left numerous others wounded. this is on top of violence that has gone back and forth over a number of weeks now. >> naturally, we mourn the lose of any life, no matter who it is. but this violence and any

incitement to violence has got to stop. the situation is simply. >> volatile, too dangerous. it is not going to lead to the outcome that people want. which is to have a peaceful resolution of the differences. >> to other news, and dutch investigators released a report into mh17, and confirmed it was hit by a russian made missile. all 298 on board died. a report said that ukraine should have closed its air space and pointed out that airlines flying over eastern ukraine should have recognised the dangers and should have recognised more transparency.

>> reporter: in a dutch military hangar lies the open shell of flight mh17. it's a grim puzzle helping the investigators peace together technical reports about the flight's last moments. >> flight mh17 crashed because of war head, the sort that fits a missile that fits on the service to air missile system. >> the cockpit is peppered by shrapnel by a war head that exploded on the lefthand side of mh17. the front section broke away in mid air. it would have been a quick death for those piloting the plane. >> one thing that the report does not answer is where the missile was fired from, and the burning question of who is responsible. but suspicions are rife. ukraine and some western leaders accuse pro-russian separatists of using a buk surface to air missile supplied by moscow.

russia denies this. in moscow, the state producer that makes the buk missiles presented a parallel report. including a life-size reconstruction that refutes dutch findings. russia claims the type of missile only exists in ukraine's arsenal, and say the weapon was fired from ukranian held territory. for the families of those killed, it's been a desperate search for answers, including why the plane was allowed to fly over a war zone, and calls on airline companies to take more precautions, and suggests ukraine should have closed the air space. we know where and why mh17 crashed. we don't know who is to blame. ut results of an international criminal investigation are expected next year, evidence that could lead to charges of war crimes and murder countries like australia

accuse pro-russian separatist rebels of causing the crash. the foreign minister says the government will continue to pursue justice for those killed. we have more from sydney. >> reporter: 38 australians and people that lived in australia were killed when mh17 was shot down. there's no great surprise that the findings of the report, the australian government said it was almost certainly a russian missile bringing it crashing down. focus is on who shot the plane down. the media is in no doubt. this is the main sydney tabloid. vladimir putin's hand on the trigger, and that is the form of australia government as well. julie bishop, a foreign minister was instrumental in driving through the u.n., a revolution that called for and got an independent investigation into the crash. this year she failed to get through the united nations. russia blocked it, an independent tribunal.

well, australia police force is part of a joint investigation team looking at how to prosecute those thought to be responsible for bringing that plane down. that is certainly what relatives in australia of those killed in the crash want to. >> to the u.s. now, where the two leading democratic candidates crashed in the first debate of the 2016 election. hillary clinton and bernie sanders discussed the u.s. involvement in the middle east, gun control and economic policy. they are taking part in the 2 hour forum. former maryland governor, jim webb and rhode island's lincoln chaffey. i believe a no-fly zone, secretary, would be a mistake. you have to enforce no fly zones. with the russian air force in the air, it could lead to an investigation because of an accident that we would regret. i support president obama, we

have to play a long game. when we talk about blunders, bashar al-assad's invasion will be seen as a blunder. >> the president has made a very tough decision. what i believe and why i have advocated the no-fly zone which of course would be in a coalition, be put on the table is because i'm trying to figure out what leverage we have to get russia to the table. diplomacy is not about getting to the perfect solution, it's about how you balance the risk. >> white house correspondent patty culhane has more from los angeles. >> the very first debate be among the potential candidates in the books. here they are trying to basically spin reporters saying their candidate won the debate. a big area where the candidates diverge is on syria. we saw the former secretary of state clinton tie herself to

some of the foreign policy successors of foreign policy. she says there needs to be a no-fly zone instituted within the country, so they'd not have to flee to other countries. the other two contenders, former governor of maryland, martin o'mallee saying that it would be dangerous. calling it a quagmire in a quagmire. a few issues where they disagreed. but it probably doesn't change the front runner status, but it seems that two of the lower team candidates will have to drop out. >> still to come on the bulletin. the deadly bombings in ankara widen deep political divisions in turkey. and we are in the chinese city that makes many of the world's christmas degreor aches, and the outlook for business is less than festive.

good to have you with us. i'm elizabeth puranam in doha. these are the top stories - the israeli government unveiled tougher security measures to tackle the unrest in israel. security forces have been deployed throughout jerusalem's public transport network and military units will help the cities. >> in the u.s. five democratic candidates vying for nomination took part in a presidential debate. economy, gun control and the war

on syria are main talking points. and mh17 was hit by a russian-made missile when it crashed. the final report on the incident didn't say who launched the missile. 298 people on board were killed. >> turkey's president said the attackers who killed 97 people in two bombings may have travelled from syria, investigators are folks on the attack. mohammed jamjoom reports from ankara. >> reporter: as protests persist and clashes continue, more and more ocall for unity. >> even as the political divisions grow deeper. >> analysts say the country is more polarized than ever. it's as if the winner takes the game and no one wants to be the loser.

people that say terrorism, it's increasing. it's their main priority in upcoming elections. a huge worry for all the parties whose posters hang throughout the city. >> daily life in ankara more or less returned to normal, it's no longer politics as usual. party elections may be around the corner, but political rallies are suspended out of respect for victims of saturday's attack. it remains to be seen how and if the bombings will affect voters opinions. outside the main train station where the blasts occurred, the makeshift memorial is in place. carnations to commemorate victims, pictures of whom sit amid the flowers. >> we can only overcome this by our will to live together. we are mourning together, and feeling the pain

we will not allow anybody to make use of the pain we are feeling from the incident to divide us. this is a terrorist attack, and it was aimed against the whole of the country >> this is a member of checks and balances, an interdialogue initiative made up of members over turkey, and they came to pay respects and reinforce a message, that while they may think differently, they consult by working together. >> i believe the people that lost their lives died due do a lack of dialogue. what i say is simple - dialogue, dialogue, dialogue. >> tired of poisonous politics and an expanding conflict with the armed kurdish group p.k.k., they are hopeful that citizens working together can help turn the tide. >> all of turkey wants to return to a 3-year long era of ceasefire and dialogue. turkey needs a language of piece

and dialogue and negotiation. >> a language that these days seem to be spoken far less than ever before the u.s. and russia will hold talks on wednesday do discuss flight safety. russia and moscow are carrying out discussions. they came within sight of each other flying over syria on saturday, and condevelops russia's bombing campaign. >> i find the air strikes to be reckless and indiscriminate. they are having the opposite effect of what russia claimed that they want to do. they claimed publicly that they want to fight i.s.i.l. in reality, he is irresponsible, they had the effect only of prolonging the suffering of the syrian people. >> the international criminal court plans to investigate

russia and georgia. the 5-way war centered on south ossetia. 900 were killed. rights groups say it sets up military positions, putting civilians at ring, and accuse russians and south ossetia of deliberately attacking regions. >> the afghan taliban withdrew from the center of kunduz. fighting in the northern city continued. further south they launched an attack. 2,000 fighters were pushed back, but they blocked major highways in the area. iran's parliament passed a vote approving the nuclear deal. the bill received 161 votes in favour, and 69 against. under the deal economic sanctions will be lifted so long

as the government lifts the programme. the fortified border as a world's militarized boundary. it's giving foreign media access to the southern site. there's a request to blur markings on the border fence. harry fawcett is there we are here a few kilometers short of the dmz. this is a routine training section that controlled inside the demilitarized zone. it came under attack. we are told that this is routine training and is something they do every day before they come in. at the moment, two months since a double land mine blast, which the south koreans are blaming on the north korean side, injure aring to soldiers, all of this is being taken. the area where the accident

happened is not far away from here. as the enemy is nearby, we are being more cautious. all units in the area are in a state of readiness. this represents the southern side of the demilitarized zone. this is the self-defencive position. the situation here changed a great deal. there was a bout of heightened tensions surrounding that, coming to an end, with a deal between the north and south towards the end of august, and since then we have seen a major military parade. no major prove cakes, and the prospects of a family reunion event between separated families from the north and south. the situation improved between north and south. people here are on a heightened state of alert. >> there's evidence that china's economy is slowing down.

annual inflation rose by 1.6", less than communists expect. it measures the price for wholesale goods falling by 5.9%. following data on tuesday, revealing a fall in imports and exports. >> a slowing economy in china making a situation worse. a china correspondent reports from the city in the south-east. >> it's the world's christmas showroom, a vast one-stop emporium from traders around the world. 60% of all. an important manufacturing center in china's economy. this year is bad. it will be much worse. my business dropped by almost half. this factory makes artificial christmas trees, this shipment

is destined for chile. until now europe as the most important market. economic growth is sluggish. the euro is weaker against the chinese yuan, all of which hurts exporters. the problem is orders from overseas increase, and other volumes drop. >> labour costs are raising. 30% higher than they were five years ago. >> the profit is less and less and the workers pay is getting higher and higher. also the overseas market is not doing well. and the price of products rise. that's why i closed the factory. >> in other words, factories in the world's workshop are struggling to remain competitive. all at a time when the economy has slowed to its lowest level

in 25 years. >> well, in is very much the face of made in china, but it's a face that the chinese government wants to end low-end manufacturing. focussing on high tech industries like green energy and robotics. >> it could mane a painful transmission for the city. >> this person represents 200 of its manufacturers. >> the government called for us to use more advanced technology, certain things have to be made by hand. >> the writing is on the wall. the cluster of the crudely made adverts for shops and apartments, sale or rent. price is almost always negotiable. >> i don't know, there are so many empty apartments, many in this area. too many. >> it is not all bad news. in atheist china, christmas is popular.
