a survivor of the genocide there were people who begged me to kill them to end their suffering but i didn't have the heart he's dedicated his life to searching the woods for bones of the victims of the srebrenica massacre. and here is the. you know hope of finally laying the past to rest and giving peace to the victims families. just find if i could. at this time on al-jazeera. this is al-jazeera. hello i'm rob matheson this is the news our live from doha coming up in the next sixty minutes. humanitarian situation. the u.n.

chief urges me and motto immediately end the violence against the hinge of. tragedy at a u.s. nursing home eight people die after the facility loses power because of hurricane. syria troops advance and datas or more talks to end the war are about to begin but will there be a breakthrough in. staying put to victims of last month's sierra leone mudslides refused to move despite feet of another disaster. the head of united nations is calling for i mean media to and to the violence against will hinge on muslims in me and describing the plight of the minority group as catastrophic almost four hundred thousand people have fled to neighboring bangladesh in the past few weeks to escape a government crackdown on him. fighters in iraq and state the security council has

expected expressed concern at reports of excessive force being used during military operations it's the first time in nine years the members have agreed to a statement on me and mom me in my eyes government says almost one hundred eighty raija villages are now empty and that number is likely to rise many have been burned to the ground me and mars leader aung san suu kyi canceled plans to attend the un general assembly next week and the nobel peace prize laureate has been widely criticized for her handling of the crisis james bays has been following events at the u.n. . these were the toughest words yet from the secretary general on the ongoing violence in myanmar i call on the myanmar or thought it is to suspend the military action and the violence appalled the rule of law and recognize the right of return of all those where to leave the country the un knows the situation is deteriorating

fast when mr good terrorist last spoke to reporters a week ago there were one hundred twenty five thousand 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 growing a population had 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

secretary general the members of sixty council expressed deep concern about the situation in state acknowledging the nischelle 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. 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 me on mars military james al-jazeera of the united nations

well earlier i spoke to azeem ibrahim he's a senior fellow at the center for global policy and he's the author of the book that all hinges inside me and my hidden genocide i asked some parm a.m.r. feel so strongly about that or or hint. actually goes back to the second world war when the japanese invaded what was at that time british burma the minority population remain loyal to the british colonial masters with the majority buddhist population sided with the japanese believing that they would be victorious and this will lead to so after independence so when the country did become independent there was bad blood between the two people and this was followed subsequently by various military leaders then trying to make the country much more buddhist in its character after the field economic policies they passed a number of laws saying that only buddhists can be loyal citizens to burma and everybody else is a non citizen and this was followed followed by a number of laws including the one nine hundred seventy four nationality act and then one thousand equal to citizenship the ranger have always been the minority of

choice of persecution because they have a different religion they look different and they have a different language and so various military generals over the years have tried to pin them as the person illegal but goalies who are basically and myanmar trying to didio the country like in two thousand and thirteen the united nations then was describing the as one of the most persecuted peoples in the world we've heard of the un security council's response today how do you regard the way the world is responding to the situation the world's response has been extremely weak it is usually unfortunate that we can know me on my own to the list of countries like rwanda and bosnia general ses in which the world was fully aware the united nations was fully aware were going on in new tame well it chose to do nothing and the me and my situation has been going on for over half a century as you mentioned even this is the most persecuted minority in the war two

by the united nations itself and our recent harvard study indicated that one in eight people are in the global of enjoy origin now over the last few weeks we have seen over four hundred thousand new hinge are being ethnically cleansed from myanmar pouring over the border into bangladesh that. it's approximately thirty percent of the entire population this is ethnic cleansing on an industrial scale and it's completely unprecedented not only is the myanmar military expelling these people they are burning their villages and human rights watch has obtained considerable evidence from satellite imagery and elsewhere showing the entire villages two thousand six hundred homes for example the hmong go district point and know they are mining the border to ensure that none of these people can ever return back to myanmar that is ethnic cleansing on a completely and just do scale and has been planned for a long time i want to ask you about the role of ozone suchi in all of this she's opened her self up to significant criticism from around the world in miramar to be clear are the military and the government two separate entities or does one have

influence over the other i'm very sympathetic to the people who key doesn't have much control of the military the military still who would considerable power in the country they still control a quarter of the season parliament and they still control the media ministries the foreign affairs ministry the boredom and used in the human history but despite that we have to remember that. isto the leader of the largest political party in the country she is the moral conscience of the country she is the most famous citizen of the country and for hard to say nothing at all of what's going on and in fact say that ethnic cleansing is there's no ethnic cleansing going on it's far too strong a word and to see that this is this is all feet news and this is an iceberg of misinformation i believe a lot of our supporters people have believed in are people like myself will be hugely disappointed to me it's very clear she simply made a political calculation that the issue is simply not worth anything the military and extinguishes elements in the country for she is no longer

u.s. backed opposition fighters representatives of the syrian government and opposition groups said judah meet again in the capital of kazakhstan on thursday the sixth round of talks in a stand up brokered by russia turkey and iran is aimed at implementing lasting cease fires in so-called deescalation zones in syria from stan and charles structured reports five rounds of so far in a standoff have had little success brokered by russia turkey and iran the focus of discussions is ending the fighting in syria and complementing u.n. brokered talks in geneva on the political future of the country. exactly. which helped. to reach. technical agreements. which basically laid the ground to negotiations. a basic framework agreement on

a stabber xing so-called deescalation zones in syria was signed by russia turkey and iran in may there's less fighting in some of the areas but syrians who have moved there expecting them to be safer say they continue to face and strikes and heavy gunfire. the opposition says the deescalation zone's initiative gives syrian government forces an opportunity to make further military gains and they have refused any suggestion that russia or iranian soldiers could be part of any full monitoring the zones the northern syrian province of italy is potentially included in the plan but there are opposition groups immediately that the international community and the syrian government say terrorists and viable targets. as well as the talks here in cannes like stan seven rounds of un brokered talks in geneva have also failed not one of opposition groups and syrian government representatives held

face to face discussions the main syrian opposition insists president bashar al assad has no role in a future transitional government the u.n. envoy in syria says the syrian government has not budged in its unwillingness to discuss the political transition the implementation of the plan for so-called deescalation zones will be at the heart of talks here again the complexity of the situation on the ground in syria and the lack of agreement over which countries could potentially offer troops to monitor the zones shows just how difficult reaching consensus could be struck at al-jazeera the start of all runs out is a senior analyst with the out of center in washington d.c. and last year he took part in this study and talks in geneva as a representative of syrian civil society is joining us now from washington d.c. thank you very much indeed for your time sir compared to the talks that you took part in last year do you detect any change in tone on motivation for these talks in

astonishment. unfortunately not i don't see actually any any results solve or honey outcomes of these seven rounds of negotiations neither in geneva or in. what tom and outside are shows now became a game changer russia actually deployed more troops and syria has more actually what they call darshan bullies in other areas and this is why i. became the game changer where are the balance in the end we have of the government against us you don't know but and then we we can see for sure that the us government has any intention or even any indication to go into the negotiation table with a good fear to. to discuss the issue off but it's got to transition over the asia

or any issues related to reconstruction or i need you to end the conflict in syria as you mentioned i mean there's no agreement so far about the future of president bashar al assad is it possible do you think to find a solution without talking about the pros the future of the president. as the syrians anyone actually can see that bashar i said. can stay one more i would not want one more day that the syrian they will say that that's mean there is no transition. best shot at themselves to their system this is why when we can see this unity it means as i said himself this is why i need i need all of that i said i said in the future that's me and basically there is not phones ition and this is why i said who is responsible on on wishing syria into the age of the civil war now it's being seven years of conflict with the full intention

of the assad government to actually to overcome that peaceful revolution that has to be the prize of his responsibility has to be there bright or for actually all the blood being on the ground in syria and i don't think that the man who would syria into the middle of the civil war he will be able to bully the country together again united against terrorism and i guess different foreign forces this is why syria has to start a bullet to go to transition where the us said has no place in in within this transition what do you think is the immediate future then for the people on the ground in syria if the two groups on either side of this debate will simply refuse to meet face to face as they have been in the past and refused to reach some sort of agreement on the press in the future of president bashar al assad if he and his

future is the main stumbling block to moving this process forward. but we have to understand this is actually is not not short of crisis this is a media crisis and that bashar assad and his regime responsible as i said in are actually putting syria in the middle of the civil war they should not be a part of the transition itself now syria has three different prizes we have actually their eyes over the terrorist organization like al qaida isis and then we have there are more than seven million refugees and then we have the but it's got to transition we have to link all this this crisis together to put into a strategy and the international community focused on only one aspect of it the united states focused on ice's. its focus on me on that if nobody

cared about that transition it has to come with the international community. to put all of these pieces together and look to the country and look to the aspirations of the people more than a half a million lost their lives and we can't accept actually to go back in syria as it was before two thousand and eleven this is why the responsibility of the international community under saddam city of the international powers. to take the lead in to see to that but it's got transition not only focusing primarily on on eliminating isis runs out of thank you very much indeed for your time one month after a landslide that killed hundreds and said i leone tens of thousands remain displaced in makeshift camps waiting to be really housed the government fears the could be more landslides and of cold and residents around the disaster zone to leave the area but many are refusing to do so reports from the capital freetown.

hundred people have left some have lost their homes others fear the same thing would happen to theirs. they live in government run makeshift camps supported by the un and aid agencies there so months ago before the end of the rainy season people here are receiving food shelter and medicine to prevent water borne diseases like cholera this is where most of the international aid money is going to camps like this one i said to bangor and her family don't want to come here they say this is a temporary solution to a long term problem. people here are growing impatient they've been promised new homes. for now soldiers are busy setting up more tense. the world food program are no longer just distributing food but also cash to help people get back to work what they need now is not food but they need support to recover to rebuild

ditching the manual process in favor of technology may not be a good thing for example. the using new technology by the election is to be. the end. of the problems of electricity. it's the first time by mid to technology is being used to register voters in zimbabwe officials conducted a practice run in april to test the system for years opposition parties have been demanding a new list of voters they accuse president robert mugabe's rulings on a party of manipulating the current register you have thousands of people who died many years ago. and from only such most of these dead voters the mysterious leaders are actually polling data because their votes. zanu p.f. officials deny the accusations more than six million voters were on the electoral roll four years ago zimbabwe is essentially starting the process from scratch

everyone who's eligible to vote has to register again. at least seven million people by january but only four hundred out of an estimated three thousand are just ration kits are available electoral officials say the rest of the equipment is expected to arrive in the country in a few weeks we appear to be stampeding into the registration process. without necessarily having a full appreciation of what the entire process is going to be about so it's important that we do get a new one and it's important that we start the process but without adequately planning for the process well setting ourselves up for disaster the presidential and parliamentary elections are next year the world's oldest elected leader is running for re-election when the date for the polls is announced beating up it one knows no voted anywhere in the world is perfect but he just hopes to become pals but at least be acceptable to many. still ahead on al-jazeera rebuilding

to reform the middle east in the way to create social political inclusion or pluralistic governance or freedom of speech the u.a.e. have taken a different approach they believe that the middle east can only be stable and resilient when it's run by or through tearing dictatorship the emyr of qatar spoke to saudi arabia's crown prince on friday after agreeing on resolving the crisis saudi arabia backtracked and suspended further talks the u.a.e. scrum principle it is widely seen as the man with a huge influence over mohammed and the relatively inexperienced saudi crown prince. has turned towards the u.a.e. as a role model to say well how can we reform saudi arabia to make it more sustainable resilient in the future and it has been somewhat become mentor as the crisis drags on kuwait's emir who is mediating the disappeared recently told us president donald

trump that a solution is just a matter of time we have also seen some changes in the american position softened especially by president. compared to his enemy positions in the early days of the crisis i think he started to be a little more balanced this was clear in his press conference with the emir of kuwait talking about the unity of the gulf countries all united. with. and countering extremism and terrorism in the region. but if diplomacy fails to heal the rift the fear is further regional instability. attacks by boko haram have left a trail of destruction throughout northeastern nigeria and adam always states the army for starters the on the group's fighters three years ago was government

control restored families are not returning home to find their villages and towns destroyed cars and so i reports on how people are trying to rebuild their lives the ruined town of meat you guys are reminded of when boko haram controlled this area for several months around two years ago charges were destroyed so banks entire neighborhoods were reduced to rubble. or government strikes. government offices that were in this compound are just beginning to be rebuilt nigerians who have fled coming back and the town is starting to thrive again. after the town was taken back by the government we returned but found nothing we had lost so much but now some of us are getting back our. fire do you know sir and has seven children returned two months ago this is what remains of the home she shared with her husband who she says was killed by. her neighbors helped her

both our state and on the national level is to say the citizens of this country regardless of what i did was all indigenous of this one i mean or whatever that all they find themselves first and foremost and i'm julian's gives them the right and privilege to do well in any location wherever they choose to stay in this country the government says the bill to repair the war damage in the northeast is nine billion dollars fadi is confident that she will soon rebuild her home and her life but some skies such as the killing of her husband will never heal catherine sorry al-jazeera adamawa state in north nigeria u.s. house speaker paul ryan says he doesn't believe deporting so-called dreamers is in the country's best interests president donald trump plans to end an obama era policy which protects hundreds of thousands of immigrants who entered the u.s. illegally as children as a decision which has sparked outrage across the u.s. . i do believe that that taking these eight hundred thousand kids out to countries

that they've probably not been to since they were toddlers. in countries that speak languages they may not even know it's not in our nation's interest so i do believe that there's got to be a solution to this problem but at the same time i think it's only reasonable it makes perfect common sense that we deal with the problem that was the root cause of this which is we do not have operational control of our borders. the president of the european commission has delivered an upbeat state of the union address saying the e.u. is back on track after britain's vote to leave john cloud junkers said economic recovery and unity between the members means europe is now ready to move forward all of this leads me to believe. you know. we have now the window of opportunity but if you look. so. let us make the most of the moment. you know six spain's

a lawsuit against the japanese government's decision to withhold schools subsidies quigley's in the ports from tokyo but. this is no ordinary school in japan it's north korean. established a year after the second world war six hundred korean students study here almost half of them are of north korean descent and. when japan colonized just more than seventy years ago the people there migrated to japan and some were forced to move into excruciating work at coal mines and installing railways high school tuition fees here cost around three hundred twenty dollars a month for each student while north korea distributes money to help offset these fees it leaves a shortfall in twenty ten japan democratic party began subsidy scheme but in that same year north korea launched an artillery attack on a south korean island and the application process for korean schools in japan was

temporarily suspended. two years later the government. placed a total ban on north korean schools receiving the subsidies that led sixty two former students of the pro pyongyang school to suit the japanese government but the take your district court has ruled against the students. i am outraged and sad it was an unforgivable ruling that was made because of political pressure and it encourages discrimination rather than. the children's right to education should be guaranteed that's why this ruling is unjust and bringing in diplomacy all together made this ruling unfair the government told the court it excluded the north korean schools from the jewish anway biscayne because of the school's close relationships with north korea and because the schools couldn't provide enough evidence that they were being operated correctly view ultimately supported by the tokyo district court. many blame the recent crisis for

the judgment that the japanese we spoke to support subsidies for the north koreans if ethnic korean residents in japan are going to live in japan for their lifetime i think the government should guarantee or support their educational fees but if they're going back to north korea or if their nationality is north korean i don't think japan needs to do it lawsuits have been filed in five courts across japan in july a court in hiroshima ruled for the government for two weeks later in a sucker the students one two cases still to be heard the students say they will launch an appeal against the ruling craig leeson al-jazeera tokyo the us government has ordered to poppins an agency is to remove a russian made me love products from their information systems the department of homeland security says it's concerned the cyber security company has ties to state
