a crisis caused by catalonia secession votes deep and. though i'm fully back to boyle watching al-jazeera live from our headquarters in doha also ahead former al qaeda linked fighters bought a battle today against syrian rebels backed by turkey plus. a giant five all billows into the sky over ghana's capital after an explosion at a gas station six people are killed and china tries to clean up the dirty reputation of its electronic waste disposal industry. thank you for joining us sounds and marching in boston against catalonia splitting from the rest of spain people have traveled from all over the country to the heart . of the region saying they represent the silent majority opposed to catalan

independence these are live pictures from barcelona right now spain's prime minister says he'll do whatever it takes to keep spain united. we have to return to legality and the key is to do so quickly and go back to normal have the absolute reassurance that the government will prevent any declaration of independence from turning into something spain will continue to be spain it will continue being spain for a long time. live to join a hall in boston an air force join us on the big crowds on the streets of boston and today what's the atmosphere like. ali the crowds are enormous i've no idea of numbers but really very very big and vocal crowds gathered in the central bus alone and here they call themselves as you rightly say that the silent majority that's because they believe they have the numbers on their side they do not want to see independence here in catalonia many of them say that their views of not being

listened to or respected over the years that their views are not accurately represented in the parliament or the current debate and it's an extraordinary crowd really because what you see behind me here is a sea of flags not just the catalan siniora but also the spanish flag the spanish national flag and that his timing you don't very often see in crowds in catalonia the dominant narrative here is one of independence the big huge crowds that have gathered in the recent past have all been for independence well these people are very worried now about the direction in which things are heading they're very worried about the possibility of a unilateral declaration of independence of the week to come the possible response of the government in madrid revoking this region's autonomy and imposing direct rule and where all of that may lead and they want to turn things around now and this is the message to the government here in catalonia let's come to our senses that's their slogan here and hold all of this let's talk let's get around the table

when i spoke a little earlier on to an opposition politician in the catalonian parliament tony out of crowd only day me represents a particle that on your side i asked him what his message was what the message of these people was to those who voted last weekend in their millions to be fair passionately believing in the independence of catalonia is what he had to say. my message is that there are ways to express your opinion by respecting the laws that we have all agreed. and the way is look if i don't like what he's president i originally the speech looks like i need a large majority to do that they don't have a gun they having their views. on bottom and by violating and sabotaging the law and that's why we have all these people here because they also want to remain got them they want to remain spanish and they want to remain here to be and it's very simple it's not funny socialism it's simply

a vindication of the rights and the freedom to this punishment is a good one it's interesting you talked about the freedoms and the rights under the constitution one of the common cries of the independence movement is give us our freedom while many of the people here will tell you they live in near perfect freedom here in barcelona and in catalonia with the exception that their views as i said i'm not properly listen to the sort of things you hear in this crowd one woman told me we're tired of being the majority and being told that we're not another man said look it's simply common sense in this age of globalization to not turn your backs on the unity of a country and the rest of europe and try to do things alone and that i think is the for us the message here and it is going to be a powerful message one imagines to those pro independence leaders as they contemplate the way in the week to come join a home in boston and i thank you very much for that jonah a not a world news an alliance led by former al qaeda fighters is promising a fierce battle against those who enter its territory in syria's it led province.
