agreement has left major crimes unresolved in bangladesh. palestinian president is calling for international intervention after more violence across the occupied territories and israel. on wednesday, israeli forces shot dead two palestinians after reported stabbing attacks. andr andrew simmons reports. >>reporter: panic as police run through a mall at the main bus station. nobody here can work out exactly what's happening. later on the streets outside, two gunshots. a dark figure in the doorway, a special forces officer, shot

dead a palestinian man who police say stabbed a woman in the bus station. the woman, and israeli was taken to hospital with moderate injuries. any hope anyone might have had that the announcement of new security measures could have an immediate effect have been shattered and once again questions loom about how security forces are handling the situation. hours before a palestinian was shot dead in the old city of occupied east jerusalem. police say he pulled a knife when he was being searched. this is the man as he's running away struck down by gun fire. he appears to have been shot in the back. earlier the streets have been disturbingly quiet. people preferring not to venture out. the army now in the cities in line with new security measures. >> you can see it's almost empty

here so there's a little bit of crime, especially the mothers and kids going to the garden or school. >>reporter: in east jerusalem, there was a mood of expectation. the new measures allow the blockading of whole neighborhoods the demolition of homes of attackers and refusal to return the bodies of people the government calls terrorists. >> the collective punishment will not achieve the goals of the italy government. the only way to achieve the goals peacefully is to establish a two-state solution. >>reporter: on the west bank, more violence. this is bethlehem where demonstrators clashed with soldiers again. here the day before a 27-year-old protester had been shot dead. with israel waiting for the new security measures to take effect, the palestinian president went on the verbal

offensive. >> we are people who are asking for rights. we're not aggressive against anyone and don't want any aggressions. we're asking for the world, the united nations to intervene. we'll not tolerate this occupation and not give up fighting the israeli policies which are against our people and our sacred sites. we'll not stand for the killing of our children in cold blood. >> as israel once again witnesses more violence, there's political deadlock, one with a lethal price for so many people. earlier we spoke to the palestinian ambassador to the u.n. he urged israel to stop the violence against palestinians. >> this attack and aggression against the entire palestinian civilian population starting from al-aqsa mosque all the way

to the occupied palestinian territory, this aggression by this massive military force of the occupying authority and the armed settlers against our civilians has to stop. we condemn it and it has to be stopped immediately and these forces need to be removed frp from points of confrontation. other news now, thousands of iranian troops in syria to help carry out a ground offensive. they come after russia began air strikes and increased ground operations against opposition fighters. meanwhile the u.s. is against the growing presence of international forces that support the assad regime inside syria. >>reporter: damascus civilian bodies routinely line the streets after air strikes.

activists say more than a dozen people died in this strike alone. the regime has stepped up attacks on rebel held areas after russias air campaign is now iran is also reported to have sent thousands of troops to support it. this is the head of the revolutionary guard special for forces. we cannot independently verify these images but iran is not hiding support for president assad. >> america even its allies are not taking this seriously and treated it as a joke. that's why the new team has entered. this could be part of a new development in the region. >> the so-called new team propping up the regime is backed by russian air power and ground support from hezbollah. now the complexities on the

ground also exist in the sky above syria. the u.s. and russia are trying to work twigged to avoid an international incident during their separate bombing campaigns. >> they will not be able to send a delegation to moscow because our american colleagues are only interested in steps that would help avoid incidents. >> we're not able at this time to associate ourselves more broadly with russias approach in syria because it is wrong headed. and strategically short sighted. u.s. al ryes in the region -- allies agree on what they say is the short sightedness. >> we should solve the syrian crisis by political methods. the country needs a temporary government to protect facilities and then create a new constitution. >> on the ground the russian

iranian lebanese and syrian alliance has -- the group continues to gain more territory and more syrians continue to die. eight armed groups have signed a historic peace deal. the deal is meant to end 60 years of civil war but divisions remain and not everyone is signing. there are more than 130 ethnic groups but eight prominent ethnic minorities across myanmar. the conflict began in 1949 after independence was power was unexpectedly handed to the majority excluding numerous

ethnic minorities. the country has been in civil war ever since with tens of thousands of people killed or injured. we have more from neighboring thailand. >>reporter: this nationwide cease fire agreement has been one of the key priorities of the president of myanmar since he took office four years ago. but what he's ended up with today will certainly not be what he was hoping more given that less that half of the rebel armies, rebel organizations in the country have not agreed to sign this deal. one of the most significant groups that is not president is the independence army which controls large parts of the north and has been involved in some of the worst fighting with government troops over the years in the fact, further south, there's been fresh fighting in recent days. so there's still a lot of skepticism about this deal, a

lack of trust in some of those areas between the rebel armies, the rebel organizations, and the government and its soldiers. after this agreement is signed between those groups, they will immediately begin work on a frame work for political dialogue iran facing a key deadline to submit information on its nuclear program. the parliament and higher council have ah approved an international deal limiting their nuclear activity but the u.n. must verify that iran is not developing weapons. they want more details for a final assessment to be released at the end of the year the united states is sending 300 troops to cameroon to help counter boko haram fighters. alan fisher has more from

washington d.c. >>reporter: barack obam obama re point when he met the nigerian president in the white house in july. now they're sending 90 troops. they're on the ground in cameroon and will be involved in surveillance, reconnaissance, and intelligence gathering. they will be armed but only for force protection rather than any offensive role and they will work in support of the countries in the region taking the fight to boko haram. now, just in the last few hours, the white house press secretary was asked what does this mean. >> what the united states has done is tried to offer some of the unique capabilities that we have in the united states military to assist that regional effort. so this deployment will be part

of an effort to conduct air born intelligence surveillance and reconnaissance operations in the region. this is a unique capacity that the united states has in this effort and it will be used in support of the ongoing regional counter extremist efforts ongoing there. >>reporter: the president had to write to congress to let them know that this deployment was underway. he said in the letter under the war powers act that it was open ended. they will be there as long as they're required. but clearly he'd like to see regional efforts being stepped up against boko haram and the fight being take on the the group by the countries in the area. >> sweden has a long history of accepting refugees but some syrians who have fled war have received a cold welcome. and police in new york

accused of spying on muslims.

>> "inside story" takes you beyond the headlines, beyond the quick cuts, beyond the soundbites. we're giving you a deeper dive into the stories that are making our world what it is. good to have you with us. these are the top stories on al jazeera. palestinian president is calling for international intervention following another day of violence. on wednesday israeli forces shot dead two palestinians after reported stabbing attacks >> there are reports iran is deploying thousands of troops to syria to help the government offensive in aleppo and hama.

meanwhile the united states and russians talk air safety. they're engaged in separate air campaigns against isil fighters and opposition groups >> eight arm add ethnic groups have signed a historic peace deal to end more than 60 years of civil war. but several have not signed the deal. let's get more on our top story now, the unrest in israel. students are promising to step up political pressure on the israeli government. we have been speaking to some of them in the occupied west bank. >>reporter: it's the youth who are at the front of the unrest. a generation that grew in the shadow of the oslow accords. but now university students are taking the lead and vow to keep up the pressure. >> we participate in any action

possible whether it's going to demonstrations or social media, we will use any means possible to send our message to the world. this is an out burst which could lead to it but we don't want that. this is imposed on us. >> at the core of the anger is the settlement expansion and land grabs over the years. and with the latest crisis brewing over the al-aqsa mosque compound, tempers boil over. none of them are taking the lead in this. >> the youth say they want to move away from the political divisions that cripple their cause. this is a graduate student. she was wounded during the protests in ramallah. she was hit by live ammunition that went through her left

shoulder, damaged her lung, and is still lodged near her spinal cord. from her room, she monitors events unfolding all around. >> i am really scared. when i go to protests, there are snipers around. we were looked at as the generation post oslow, the negotiations generation. look how young some of the protesters are. i did not expect people younger than me to be so aware. >> the israeli government has announced it has not returned the body of any palestinian involved in any act of violence. just one of the new measures it's adopted. they will be buried in an off duty military cemetery. this measure would include any protester who dies of his wounds while in custody. >> it's nothing new for

netanyahu nor is it a surprise. such measures were already in place. >> despite the challenges, a new generation of palestinians is emerging, one that wants to break away from the past and write its own future. to yemen now with ongoing war has almost depleated the countries finances. a blockade imposed by the coalition has put a stop to oil imports and cash flow. millions of people are not able to get their salaries. >>reporter: this is aden, the port city in the south recently recaptured by government troops. the government and the central bank have relocated here. employees have been waiting for months to get their salaries. >> i have not received my salary for the last two months. bank officials told us they're still running out of cash.

>> a woman died while she was queueing up to withdraw cash. >>reporter: pro government officials say the crisis started when houthi rebels withdrew $2 billion from the central bank to pay their fighter as. now officials are left to grapple with yemens deepening financial crisis. >> we urgently need almost $100 million to pay employees in aden and other cities. >>reporter: aden and other cities are areas under government control which means millions of yemenis in other cities will have to wait. yemen is the poorest country in the arab world and many worry it

will go bankrupt if the war goes on now, sweden has received the highest number of asylum applications in its history. one family seeking refuge -- >>reporter: we catch up with her father deep in the swedeish country side in cramped, temporary -- in the september bustle of budapest train station. >> i'm worried about the future here. i didn't think it would be like that. >>reporter: she shows me what appear to be bullying threats from an immigration official.

>> so you do hate it? >> no. >> go somewhere else. >> he argue with this guy from damascus. he told them give me the number and i can do everything for -- i will -- >> he said give me your identity card and i'll throw you out. >> i put all this to the immigration minister. >> this is really a problem because so many people are coming right now and it's really a challenge for the authorities to be able to set up proper housing for people and to have proper control of what's happening with them. so this is -- we're not dealing with it as well as we should right now. >>reporter: you've got to travel a long way into the middle of

nowhere to find these camps for want of a better word, people waiting months and months for their asylum applications being processed living in conditions they did not expect to find here in sweden. one day life for them here will be much better but even this country with its long history of welcoming refugees is finding it hard to cope. do you think that the compassion of sweden and of swedeish people has limits? >> no. i think the opposite. because when i could see, we started to collecting here for clothes and shoes and so and it was streaming to us so much. >> so people care?

>> people care. they do. >> as we talk about the past, about syria, her father breaks down. >> he doesn't want to go out of syria. >>reporter: a reminder that this is not the life they chose. an appeals court in the u.s. has given muslim americans another chance to sue the new york police department for spying on them. the case was dismissed last combreer by a lower court. >>reporter: places where muslims pray, work, and go to school were placed under ex-ten civilian surveillance by the new york police department after the attacks of september 11th, 2001. that according to an associated press report. not just in new york city but also in nearby new jersey.

an american born iraq war veteran was shocked to learn that some of the mosques he prayed at were being watched >> i decide tea not to go to that mosque. i didn't want to end up on a list and jeopardize my military career. >>reporter: he's suing the nypd along with dozens of others who believe their rights were violated >>. the lawsuit argues that the new york police departments surveillance of muslims casts guilt on all people of that faith by suggesting they somehow pose a special threat to public safety. the suit was originally thrown out of court but now has been reinstated on appeal. the panel of judges pointing to similar thinking throughout u.s. history. from the internment of japanese americans in world war ii to the surveillance of african americans during the seville rights movement and youish americans in the 40s and 5s.

we are left to wonder why we could not see with foresight what we see so clearly with hindsight. that loyalty is a matter of the heart and mind not race, creed, or color. the panel found the plaintiffs had grounds to sue the nypd but it left it to another court to rule on the merits of the case. a spokesperson for the city tells us the issue is whether the nypd in fact did this solely because they were muslims. advocates say this case has national implications. >> i think a number of people have become comfortable with the idea that muslim population should be singled out, that they

are inherently suspicious. that kind of thinking can't be sanctioned. >>reporter: the nypd says it's disbanded unit responsible for mapping and tracking the muslim community but that's not enough for the plaintiffs who want a court ruling to ensure their rights are not being violated. now, more than 30,000 indians live in small enclaves land locked, bangladeshi borders. many murders and other criminal cases have remained unsolved because of this. >>reporter: it looks like a patch of overgrown bush but this is a grave. what bothers him far more is that his fathers killer was never really brought to justice.

>> my fathers murder was punished by being made to put his nose to the ground and crawl in front of a crowd. >> this is due to the location where the murder took place. he lives in a village that used to belong to india until july this year. because its located inside bangladesh, police and courts from india have not had access to the area since the british left mind a divided sub continue tent. bangladesh's police couldn't come here as well. his father was killed when he was a child. when he grew up, he became the chairman of citizen's for justice committee. >> when we proved someone was guilty, we would punish them with fines and physical torture.

that stopped people from committing crimes. >> he insists it was ness because safety was deteriorating fast. now that they've been handed over to bangladesh, its law enforcement agencies can resolve any future disputes and prosecute crimes. but what many want to know is whether they'll look into crimes committed in the past. official records are nonexistent here but residents and the other prosecutor say 20 to 30 murders have taken place there since 1971. >> the state does not discourage people from seeking justice but they'll face any obstacle obstacles. many witnesses have died. it will be difficult. >>reporter: he doesn't even know if the man who killed his father is still alive. he wants justice to be served

but he's not looking forward to the uphill battle he'll have to fight in order to achieve that. you can always keep up to date with all the news on our website, aljazeera.com. >> on "america tonight." aftermath. even after the waters recede, the worries are rising. >> did you have insurance for all your things? >> no. we don't make that kind of money that we can have extra to pay insurance. >> so how much did you lose? >> everything. >> a thousand-year rain and why a south carolina community in its path may face more troubles ahead. also tonight: stealing home. the florida law that's left coul
