would probably risk them moving back because they've already started mining there in france in those places most of their own and talk like bangladesh is in the border areas you cannot distinguish them that don't have documents to prove that they were going as you crossed over a very precarious situation for both sides now unless the diplomatic move which is so far been talk and brinkmanship is able to put that kind of pressure on me on my chances are most of their owing guys will remain a stateless people in this side of the border in bangladesh now is a mother to him is a senior fellow at the center for global policy and he says they won't have the resources to build enough hollands for the refugees at the border. well the latest numbers from the united nations and decay that over four hundred one throws in people who have no cross the border over the last couple of weeks that's approximately eight hundred thousand every single day or one third as in our words is simply no way that bangladesh can absorb those kinds of numbers particularly in

the fact that bangladesh was already hosting four hundred thousand is going if you g.'s so there is essentially have a very ambitious and in many respects unless they plan to use two hundred two thousand acres of land to build these fourteen those in homes along with even half those in the trees one of the purposes of this ambitious plan is to ensure that the hinge i do not leave those camps what we have at the moment i really enjoyed a few days trying to melt into the population and what bangladesh has enough if you polish it into nine hundred ninety two great nordic enjoyed if you do starters because we want all of those who enjoy to out one team sooner or later to be repatriated back to myanmar let's move on to other news now in palestinian political group hamas has agreed to hold talks with a viable fatah about holding a general election the two factions last held elections in two thousand and six what chamas won and briefly form the government there also expected to discuss dissolve in the guards a ministers of committee both sides were involved in the conflict in two thousand

and seven which led to four thousand all in the occupied west bank and hamas governing gaza the united nations has called for an investigation into the killing of thirty six burundian refugees by soldiers in the democratic republic of congo a correspondent malcolm webb has covered the story all over and its refugees extensively he reports from across the border and uganda they came here to the democratic republic of congo to save the u.n. says refugees died following a protest. demonstrators clashed with soldiers and dozens were killed and injured. we were informed that the leaders around here they would not let the refugees stay here and even get into the camp as the only option was to go back to britain where we are afraid could be killed. the u.n. says the demonstration was against the expulsion of two poor indian refugees they live among host communities in the eastern town of coming. as an administrator i

cannot accept the brothers and sisters die here in congress as you know the story is very clear that these people will cooperate with them even today we continue to cooperate with them. during these political crisis began in april twenty fifth and president p.f. and to indeed to launch his bid for a third term in office opposition and rights groups say it was illegal and unconstitutional what started with street protests in the capital later became violent conflict across the country. the government accused of extradition killings and torture to silence critics deny that four hundred thousand people left the country because of the violence most of them live in camps like this one in tanzania both government agents and armed opposition have been accused of operating within the camp. well forty thousand refugees are in congo where the incident took place the circumstances are not clear we have heard about it just after it happened

yesterday a team was darkness staff is also has gone to the place also to treat the mentally injured including very severely injured the circumstances we heard that there was a confrontation with the armed forces and shooting on twitter really is minister rexton relations called for clarification about what happened but for those who already lost loved ones the answers will come too late. markham web al-jazeera kampala uganda but the violence started after refugees storm a prison where four ball indians were being held for deportation the congolese interior ministry says troops and actually fired in the air that became overwhelmed after style and thrown at them at least thirty six are under investigation one congolese officer were killed and coming your no in south kivu province the united nations says another hundred and seventeen were injured thirty nine of those were

gravely wounded and had to be evacuated by helicopter to the city of the carver jason stearns of the director of the congo research group at new york university center for international cooperation he says there is a bigger political picture to consider here. it must be said on the issue of whether these people were refugees or not most of them were not living in a refugee camp they were staying in host communities most of the people apparently were of the c. ethnic group. many tutsi. now have gone over towards the opposition although it's a mixed picture and burundi. and so it's possible that some of those refugees felt that they were being targeted by the burning government didn't want to go back and the congolese government then collaborated with bringing government safe back in general in the past several years the congolese government has been a friend of the government in fact as the president has come under increased international criticism of the congo as one of its one of its remaining allies in

that and so it's interesting that this is happening at the moment in the eastern congo there have been accusations in fact that some of the people who carried out the killings were not called police but actually you know and so interest dressed up in call these uniforms and so as i said it's a confusing situation but a very grave one. to iraq now with a promise to says he's prepared to use military force if a plan a referendum on kurdish independence turns violent the kurds in iraq have come under increasing pressure from regional policy and the u.s. to call off the vote that's for the twenty fifth of september and wrong. the iraqi prime minister hydrilla body reacted with strong words the kurdish parliament's decision to hold an independence referendum on september twenty fifth if you challenge the constitution and if you challenge the borders off you are on the border of the region and there will not be this is

a public invocation to countries in the region to violate iraq because there is one which is very dangerous escalation. of bodies were to a met with a mixture of defiance and anger in the kurdish region of northern iraq the president of the kurdistan regional government masoud barzani spoke at a rally north of erbil in the city of. rejected our partnership not us if you have a look at the iraqi constitution it says the commitment to this constitution keeps the free unity of iraq we decided to live with baghdad but they didn't accept our partnership now they have to accept we will be good neighbors if they want except our partnership we won't be their servants. one source of tension is the disputed territory of kirkuk which the kurds say belongs to them but is also claimed by iraq the kurds have been clear that the referendum will take place in kirkuk and have sent troops to the city but the local iraqi militia says any ballot box will be

seen as an act of aggression the international community also reacted brett mcgurk who is the u.s. special representative to the coalition said that this referendum would not be supported by the u.s. and the iraqis and the kurds needed to get together and concentrate on the fight against and that's also a view echoed by the british foreign office. across. reason flags have been waving and nationalism amongst this distinct ethnic group is the fever pitch ordinary kurds and their leaders see this referendum as then like meant a chance for self-determination and their own nation state something they've been striving for the navy a century however some parties say the time is not now but they might back the popular movement that seems to be on track to hold the referendum despite the objections of iraq the united states and opposition across the region. how does it appeal. for a by election for the former prime minister's seat. a controversial reconciliation
