the un knows the situation is deteriorating fast when mr good terrorists last spoke to reporters a week ago there were one hundred twenty five thousand rohingya refugees that number has now tripled given the situation has got so much worse in the last week do you believe this is ethnic cleansing well i would answer your question with another question when one third of the rowing or population to flee the country can you find a better word to describe it. as the secretary general has already taken the extremely rare step of writing to the security council urging them to take action as he spoke the council was meeting first with an open session on somalia it was only after that ended and they went into closed session and when they discussed any other business that the crisis in myanmar was finally raised afterwards the president of the security council read a carefully worded statement it was nowhere near as strong as the words of the
12:04 am
secretary general the members of sixty council expressed deep concern about the situation in state acknowledging the initial attack on men mart security forces or into n.t. fifth august should be on mass stop all its military operations in the state now that's what the secretary general says does the security council share that view now that. the statement that a readout is what we have agreed there are some who see that as a very weak statement. that. macey so why is the security council not being tougher there's always a log jam when there's a lack of unity and when one of the permanent five members is opposed to action in this case diplomats point to china a long standing ally of myanmar's military james pros are jazeera of the united

12:06 am
began arriving nearly three weeks ago aid agencies say they can't cope there is a response which is under way but it is a critical forty two beasts tiptop seriously so as to meet basic needs and to avoid that work or to have an emergency within an emergency their anger being caught in a military counter offensive it began after about thirty reading a gunman attacked police and military posts last month but the scale of the military's response has been described by the u.n. as a textbook example of ethnic cleansing. i came to bangladesh with my family three days ago we had to escape because the burmese security forces burned our home and started attacking us i lost my son. with no shelter and no food these people are totally reliant on and we have appealed for a modest seventy seven million dollars but that is not enough but it is a little done by the whole u.n. community that is going to be revised we need to get much from all funding fall
12:07 am
apart and i mean ma doesn't use the name or a hanger to refer to these people instead they usually call bang goalies accused of illegally by grating from bangladesh the presidential spokesman says those who fled won't be automatically allowed to return saying they would first have to be very far. bernard smith al-jazeera. says the president to refugees international he joins us via skype from washington d.c. thanks for being with us president want to ask you about the comments from the u.n. general today and the statement from the u.n. security council is going last week the u.n. to do and say more are you satisfied with what you've had today. well i'm satisfied to a great extent with what the secretary general said but no how can you be satisfied with what the security council. this is. we are dealing with ethnic cleansing and crimes against you know that humanity of historic
12:08 am
proportions and and the there needs to be an enormous outrage in the international community the numbers are staggering the actions of the military and the government of myanmar are it's difficult to come up with adjectives to describe what's happening and so statements that you know talk about be wary of be wary of statements that talk about complexities and the need to temper your outrage how well did they do in rwanda in one nine hundred ninety four i mean this is. to express outrage what what what sort of specific steps do you. the international community to take on the ground to make a difference well first of all i think there needs to be more expressions of outrage because i believe that governments the government of myanmar and the military in myanmar is susceptible as is or as are all governments to shaming
12:09 am
secondly i think there should be multilateral military sanctions against the on the on more military i believe the second i believe the secretary general and other senior u.n. of u.n. officials and in my country u.s. officials should travel to the region and to make their make their deep concerns known there are many different ways the governments of the world in the international community there are many means they have at their disposal to bring pressure to bear on the government that has not yet been done and for skeptics for skeptics i would say that the expressions of concern from governments in the region and beyond i think create opportunities for influence that are that are real so i think much more needs to be done and on the ground we've had this enormous humanitarian crisis a couple of bangladesh has received an awful lot of people but the response is
12:10 am
it difficult for them isn't it and there's also there are certain restrictions on humanitarian organizations what would you know what the bangladeshi government to do to try to improve the situation for those who are right there well look i think it would be irresponsible if we didn't say first and foremost you know we didn't express our solidarity and support for the government of bangladesh the prime minister of bangladesh to shake us ina has made statements that i think she should be welcomed by the world expressing her concern about what's happening so i but in addition we need to encourage the government of buying. desh to keep making keep their borders open so that refugees who are fleeing who are being driven out you know have refuge i think humanitarian organizations like the united nations high commissioner for refugees have to have full and unfettered access to bangladesh and
12:11 am
i'm and i'm hopeful and and that the government of bangladesh will understand that so that the aid can continue to come into bangladesh. thank you very much indeed for sharing your thoughts thank you thank you. has claimed eight more lives in florida as officials confirmed that patients in a nursing home died after it lost power during the storm and resignation is underway after three elderly patients were found dead inside the facility and five others later died in hospital it's believed that deaths were heat related after the home lost its air conditioning or the authorities are also investigating the possibility of carbon monoxide poisoning from generators. some florida keys residents are beginning to return home following hurricane and that it's estimated that one in four homes on the string of low lying on and have been destroyed and

the military operation to recapture who ija is expected to be a complicated one there are two main front lines for the region here at the west of the town and here at southwest. both battle fronts are linked by a series of watch towers and trenches. soldiers are clearing the surrounding desert by burning bushes to make it easier for them to move in their armored vehicles the battle won't just be fought by militias providing support will be the iraqi army counterterrorism forces and the federal police the kurdish peshmerga will also be involved but given tensions in nearby kirkuk which the kurds claim the government leaders in baghdad say is federal iraq a territory corp it will be complicated. there are mounting tension and car cooking caused by the sectarian dimension that is making it boil and might lead to the deterioration of security situation leading to a standoff among the different forces. despite the potential takeover of the last
12:22 am
remaining eisen stronghold in iraq the group's ideology will not be completely wiped out and it will remain a challenge. the problem is not with eisel alone it is by the oppression of the sunni communities even if i still is the fee to incur cooke's how we for example the oppression of the sunni community continues by the shiite led government then we may see another wave of violence maybe worse than i saw the. ideology of eisel would still resonate among the people combating the groups ideology is a concern for many both here and abroad many iraqis say that the root causes for the rise of a group like i still haven't been addressed and there's also the issue of what to do with the fighters and their family members after all they are some of the iraqi citizens now there's no concrete plan from the kurdish old iraqi authorities for rehabilitation or even imprisonment leaving many to wonder if there is
