logistical support at an airforce base in cyprus to the french military also offering adoption of refueling operations for french planes who carry on these bombing raids on i.s.i.l. targets in syria and iraq. meanwhile security operations are still ongoing here in france and still in a state of emergency and we are seeing thousands of security personnel across this country. one city ended a three-night curfew on monday and reported there on sunday where many people feel they are being unfairly targeted and cast on suspicion and shows you local authorities continue to make decisions during the state of emergency to conduct warrantless searches to put people under house arrest and to even impose a curfew. we are also hearing reports of accustoms official who was killed in france in toulon and not clear if it has to do with

what took place this paris or plots and investigating it to see if it is related to criminal activity. >> adam in paris. much of the focus security wise is to the north in belgium. officials there are saying they are worried about an attack on brussels so the city all but shut down and al jazeera's paul brennan is there. >> reporter: on the face of it major success for the belgium authorities on sunday night total of 22 coordinated raids all within minutes of each other and 16 suspects arrested, a judge will decide whether or not those arrests should turn into longer detention and may well be that some of those 16 end up getting released but nonetheless the police and the authorities after many days of extreme pressure to make some progress do appear at last to have made a breakthrough. one thing to say though is that salah abdeslam the prime target of the authorities has still slipped through the net. he is still on the run at the moment. and that means that the terror

threat here in brussels, the alert level remains at level four and it's not quite locked down and probably can see with the trams and buses been schools in brussels are shut today and the metro and under ground rail way will remain shut. no way they can lift the threat and level of alert until they get the prime suspect, the police are at last starting to make some progress in that direction. >> that is paul brennan for us in brussels and nato adjusted operations at the headquarters in brussels, some staff members there being asked to work from home and scheduled visits to the headquarters have now been cancelled. new video out of the attack in mali showing security guards storming the radisson blu hotel in the capitol of bamaco and rescued people and 19 civilians killed along with two gunmen and president disputing claims that an al-qaeda group was responsible and said the radical group the liberation front was

rohani and in terms of the meeting with ali we have been told by the russian kremlin spokesperson demetri this was a long conversation, went on for about 1.5 hours and longer than they planned for and the two discussed numerous things and trade and bilateral relations and obviously syria. now, in terms of syria we know that these two men broadly agreed on the inadmissibility as they put it of imposing a political settlement on syria from outside. now that is a reference to what the iranians and the russians think the west is trying to do. they both agree that no one can tell the syrians which form of government and which leader they must choose. that's what they agreed on. what this doesn't say of course is what they disagreed on and that is what western governments will be looking for over the coming days and weeks, any sign this cozy relationship between

moscow and t mosc moscow tyran and friction over the commitment to the face of assad. >> rory in moscow and russia and tie tyron have troops on the ground to change the way they act. >> a big sticking point is assad and president obama has actually said a few days ago that russia cannot continue to be on the fence about this. in other words, if putin and the kremlin want to be cooperative partners with western governments over syria they have to go with assad getting him out of power and somehow persuade the iranians to comply. up until now russia has been pretty adamant that they are not going to concede to western demands that assad step down when they start to formulate

this new government shortly. and iran is even is also against having assad step down. so i think russia, in fact, is becoming a little more flexible and putin perhaps will try to persuade iranian leaders today that they need to moderate their views about assad but i think he is going to have a hard time. >> meanwhile russian forces have been bombing i.s.i.l. targets in syria and amy knight says that is only the beginning and will increase in the coming weeks. the washington post calling on iran to immediately release the tehran chief, on sunday the judiciary said he had been sent to prison for spying and did not share details and held in custody more than a year and his family and the newspaper saying he is innocent. two u.s. military pilots dead after the helicopter crashed in

officers say that ten people were found on the ground wounded, another seven people showed up to area hospitals, the good news in all of this if there is any of the victims all are said to be in stable condition. now police this morning again are searching for the gunman so far they have not had much luck in getting people to come forward with information, something that the mayor plead for help when he came on the scene last night. >> it's really hard to police against a bunch of guys who decide to pull out guns and settle disputes with 300 people in between them and not something you can tolerate in the city and again at the end of the day it's going to require the people who were in this park to basically say they had enough and not put themselves in harm's way and give us information so the police can do their job. >> reporter: police have not released specific information about those 17 victims we do know one was as young as 14. >> that is jonathan in new orleans and the murder rate has been going down over the last three years and demonstrations on the greek border and hundreds of desperate people are hungry and refusing to heat and the
