changer >> our objective is to discharge illegal immigrant migration to prevent human smugglers to help people who want to come to europe through encouraging legal migration. >> reporter: the agreement means that in future turkey will take back all those making the perilous and illegal journey across the aegean to greece. for every syrian refugee returned one syrian refugee from camps in turkey will be resettled in europe thus opening a legal route of entry. turkey wanted more from the e.u. in return for its help, more money, double in nafk, the 3.3 billion already pledged to help refugee on turkish soil. more cast-iron agreements between the plan and quicker access for turkish citizens to

e.u. visas. none of these are promises made by the e.u. here. the crucial details and difficult once are yet to be discussed. there are key objections to be overcome within the e.u. cypriut concerns that it is using it to attempt its syrian refugees from turkey and italy insisting that respect for press freedom in turkey be part of any deal. an agreement in principal only. it is nevertheless an important milestone as e.u. leaders outline their strategy to solve the refugee crisis, thousands people struck in greece have been pleading with the macedonian authorities to open its border. the balance can-- balkan state has tightened its control and only allowing in a certain

number of refugees per 24 hours. people demand to be let through so they can continue their journey to the north. brussels steered clear of the border closure apart from the french president. >> translation: you referred to the refugees at the border of greece and macedonia. first of all, you have to understand they will not be able to cross. we have to see the relocation and to a certain degree some missions for those who do not qualify for asylum. for the moment, these people need to be supported and provided with aid. greece will be responsible for this and it will be financed by europe tunisia has closed its border with libya after an attack which killed 53 people. it is believed the fighters entered the country through libya. a curfew has been imposed there. >> reporter: the very latest is we understand a warehouse

storing weapons has been discovered, weapons like heavy machine guns as well as mortars and rpgs. it shows the things that they're dealing with. not only are there fighters still on the run in the area, but also weapons as well. i think that the security forces were taken by surprise by the scale of this attack. >> reporter: the people here woke up to this. the sound of heavy gunfire. the attacks on the town were coordinated on the national army and security forces. some local people report seeing dozens of fighters roaming the streets of the authorities say they have killed many of them, including this man who they accuse of attempting to fire a rocket-repelled grenade at the police station station. this was one of the targets that the security had talked about the heart here.

what this attack shows is that there is an organized well-armed group operating in this border region capable of hitting strategic targets. some call this area the wild west of tunisia. known for the smuggling of goods from nearby libya, its markets and shops are now closed. tunisians have travelled from here to groups like i.s.i.l. in libya and many people here think i.s.i.l. is behind what happened. >> translation: they are dirt. we are not afraid of them. all the people here are in solidarity with the government. for us every is in solidarity with the government we hate them. they don't represent us. they don't represent tunisia >> translation: of course i'm afraid. we're all afraid because it is the first time that something like this has happened. >> reporter: one possible reason for this attack is revenge for a recent u.s. air strike on an

i.s.i.l. camp sabratha in western libya. most of those kills tunisians. it is thought the strike happened with the help of tunisian intelligence. last week a dozen fighters crossed attacking security forces. this time it was a much larger group. >> translation: this is an unprecedented attack planned and organized and whose goal was to take control of the area to announce a new emi remarks ate. >> reporter: the government recently built a barrier to try to stop arms trafficking and attackers crossing in. this fighting also shows a threat isn't coming from just libya, it is already within tunisia itself. i think one of the most important issues now is to look at the motivation behind this attack. we heard from the president who

spoke about the fact that possibly the attackers were trying to set up a caliphate. the prime minister repeated that as well. it might have been trying to get into the barracks, the army back ars and the security forces there. kind a kind of tactic that we have seen boko haram use in nigeria. we understand also that the security forces as well as the army are going to continue their operations. they are expecting probably more attacks here in the coming days. i think people will be wondering whether the price in the costly assets to build a wall along the border with libya, which is around 30 kilometers and has actually worked, because it is clear that fighters are still able to infiltrate that wall. i think better intelligence surveillance of the wall is needed as well as dealing with the corruption issues which is known as the traders but also

weapons as well for years now in syria, armed groups which aren't part of the truce continue to gain territory. al-qaeda affiliated al-nusra front and another group have captured the city of al eis. it has been more than a week now since a conditional ceasefire came into force but al-nusra and i.s.i.l. are not part of that deal. the main opposition coalition will decide later this week whether it will take part or not in talks shelled uld in geneva on friday. the violence continues. -- scheduled in geneva. >> reporter: the talks have significantly re-lewis-- the trees has reduced fights.

in aleppo this is where a building was destroyed by shelling. here local people said opposition forces were to blame for the death of at least 13 people. local clinic two of the women badly injured in the attack. it was the suffering of syrian women that was highlighted by the u.n. envoy staffan de mistura staffan de mistura. he recorded a message to mark international women days >> many many weem inside and outside syria. i've been able to see them during this terrible five years of conflict, how enormous it has been the sufferance and their dignity. >> reporter: the stalled syrian talks were supposed to restart here in geneva this week. however, that's now in some doubt. the head of the main opposition block, the high negotiations committee, has told news organizations, including al

jazeera, in a telephone conference call, that right now they're not ready to return to geneva. they say there have been too many violations in the cessation of hostilities. they stay there are areas that are besieged and have not received humanitarian aid and they want to see the release of detainees. everyone knows there is a risk in further delay. yet more violations of the cessation of hostilities could derail this entire process the u.s. military says it has killed more than 150 al-shabab fighters in a drone strike in somalia. officials say that figure is 27. the group was attacked with bomb and missiles. it is in the raso camp. al-shabab wants to overthrow somalia's government. it is responsible for attacks in

east africa. the strike was said to be a preventive measure to stop future attacks by al-shabab >> the fighters who were scheduled to depart the camp posed an imminent threat to forces in somalia. their removal, the receival of those terrorist fighters, degrade's al-shabab's objectives in somalia, recruiting members and planning attacks on other forces a spokesman for the government spoke to us earlier on the telephone saying: still to come here on al jazeera. iraq faces dissent as it deals with i.s.i.l. and an economic crisis. we will tell you what is adding to the country's existing

problems. as man versus machine in an historic match of witness in the chinese game of gho. of gho.

welcome back. you're watching al jazeera live from doha. top stories so far. some e.u. leaders have agreed to back turkish proposals to stem the flow of refugees into europe. the governor why an car road accident has offered on-- ankara to take back refugees with extra funding.

53 people have been killed after an armed group attacked security forces in. it is believed the fighters entered the country through libya. the u.s. military says it has killed 150 fighters in a drone strike in somalia. south korea is set to announce it's own set of sanctions against north korea. the move comes off the back of a new round of u.n. sanctions imposed last week. the snkss are expected to include an entry ban on any ships that have been to north korea and the addition of more north korean nationals to an existing black list. tensions are high on the korean peninsula following rhetoric and military activity. china has called for more comprehensive action labelling any blind faith in sanctions alone as irresponsible.

the p.m. said the issue has to be resolved in order to restore calm to the region. >> translation: tensions are increasing in the peninsula. if tensions are aggravated or grow out of control it will go disastrous to all parties. china will not passively watch the area become unstable and let security interests be damaged by the instability. we call on all parties involved not to aggravate tensions. >> reporter: live to seoul and my kreeg rob mcbride. what do you think we will see and hear? >> reporter: the announcement will come in the next hour or so here in seoul. details seem to have been widely leaked, so we've fair idea of what will be in these new measures. one of the principal targets seems to be a trilateral trade project for the import of russian coal through north korea down into south korea.

this was seen as an example of collaboration, something to be built upon. it seems likely that that will now be suspended despite pilot projects having taken place on this project. of course, the most highly visible example of collaboration between north and south korea was the gason industrial complex zone. that remains completely shut as we have these heightened tensions between north and south korea. also on this list of measures are likely to be, as you are mentioned, targeting officials of part of the continuing nuclear missile program and also targeting shipping whereby we may see country's ships from third party's countries that have passed through north korean ports being denied to south korean waters. all these unilateral measures coming on top of the u.n. measures also placed is sounds like a hardening

of the south korean attitude gentleman you are certainly seeing a tougherer-- >> reporter: yes. over the last couple of years we have seen unprecedented attempts by south korea to build more closer warmer ties with beijing as a way of undermining north korea. its traditional ally putting more pressure on north korea. as we see there from the foreign ministry of china's press concerns, it doesn't seem to have worked. china still maintains this strong stance. refusing, it seems, to put extra pressure on north korea. you are seeing south korea trying to other tack of putting in place its own tougher members to deal with what it seize as the growing threat from the north and a way of giving an example of that, the south korean spy agency has chosen today to release a report highlighting what it says are the cyber activities, the cyber

warfare activities of the north against south korean targets. in particular the hacking of dozens of phones owned by south korean officials, and also the targeting of the traffic control network of the south korean railway. certainly from the south korean point of view, despite the denials from north korea that it is involved in any of this activity, certainly a growing threat that has to be dealt with by tougher action now thanks very much. iraq's prime minister and members of the coalition government will be meeting in kabul to resolve conflicts. including an economic crisis and the battle against i.s.i.l. >> reporter: north of baghdad on the way to mosul iraqi security forces have recaptured hundreds of kilometers of territory held by i.s.i.l. former shia militias now under

command. the prime minister says the operations are a step to driving i.s.i.l. out of a much wider territory in the west and north. >> translation: these forces are fighting the enemy. they are moving thousands of kilometers from areas in which hundreds of i.s.i.l. fighters gathered to launch offences. >> reporter: while an assault on mosul is still likely months away, the white house says they've started preparing the ground for an offensive. >> mosul be will be very complicated. it will be a mix of forces and important to ensure it's well planned from a military perspective, for a humanitarian perspecti perspective. [technical

difficulties] >> reporter: the iraqi prime minister is in a tough position right now. if he pushes too hard to reshuffle cabinet or arrest corrupt officials, he could risk losing support from political blocks he needs. he could also lose support if he

doesn't implement those reforms a large fire in the u.a.e. has destroyed several boats. nine firefighting teams responded to the blaze at abu dhabi. it looks like the fire started on two photos before spreading to the others. the former new york city mayor has announced he will not be run willing for the presidency. he says he fears a three person race would increase the chance that either republican front runner donald trump or ted cruz could win the race for the white house. apple computers have been targeted by a virus that demands a ransom in return for the user's data. it is known as ransom wear. it encrypts data on infected machines and then asks for payment to unlock the information. it is thought to be the most successful attack on apple

computers. three years ago al jazeera filmed children working in coal mines in india. three years later mining was banned in that area. we return there to see what has been the effect. >> reporter: this man is a minor turned farmer. when the indian government banned coal mining here, he and many other $switched to tumeric farming. he makes less money but says he is happier. >> translation: mining pace more, but if i'm to think about mining and safety, then farming is better. judge surrounding his field we spot at least eight active mines. the ban, it seems, has had little effect. >> translation: we investigate further and find this boy. he was filmed three years ago. he was rescued by a charity back

is back to working in the mines. >> translation: people like me don't have an education. who is going to give me a job. all i can do is manual labor and rely on myself. >> reporter: he confirms mines here are still operational and children are still being used as labor. he takes us to meet some of them. the smaller one is his brother. he says he is 13 years old. >> translation: coal is very hard. sometimes when i strike stones like this in the mine, it creates a spike. my pick axe has broken too. i'm not afraid of this. i'm scared of ghosts down there mostly. >> reporter: they make five times more than the poverty line here, but the mine operator offers them no protection and dangerous work not fit for children. they also have to bay their equipment. no-one wears a helmet. >> reporter: this is getting too

large. it continues to extract coal in violation of the court order and it is using children. these children and their families are caught in a cycle of exploitation because mining is all they've ever known. they just don't know what else to do. coal that was extracted before the ban went into effect was allowed to be transported
