you but which has thousands of fighters is vowing to fight to the death news of the new campaign is raising concerns for civilians in there. if the turkish army enters back by russian planes they have committed a massacre a few days ago and that is for sure and acceptable to me and to any muslim who rejects the presence of our players in our country. the russians are the first and last and i mean of the syrian people are backing bashar al assad how can they be supporting the syrian people. the new push by turkey comes after an agreement with russia and iran last month to set up a deescalation zone in. the turkish army will be operating in the city while the russians will be deployed outside of the province it is one of four deescalation zones the others are the asker's of the capital damascus that all the border with

a million people crossed for me and more into bangladesh just in the last six weeks it looks as though that flow that flow of people that exodus won't stop any time soon these makeshift camps that they are going to they are overcrowded the conditions are on hygenic unsanitary there is not enough aid that is why there is a lot also still so much concern that epidemics could break out and diseases could spread in the meantime the u.n. aid workers humanitarian organizations trying to get the international community to respond more vigorously to this crisis which they do which they do not believe will get any better any time soon. the calling themselves the silent majority and the. for some barcelona and spain's catalonia region hundreds of thousands of people traveled from all over the country to make their call for unity one week after catalonia secession vote the referendum has plunged spain into political crisis and has joined a whole reports both sides are only hardening their positions. barcelona

warns he may use special powers to revoke catalonia ptolemy the regional government meanwhile is considering a unilateral declaration of independence to come but who will follow them these people seem to have found their voices jonah how al-jazeera pass alone the scottish national party appears to have delayed plans to push for a second independence referendum if the back of versions exit from the european union scotland rejected independence from the u.k. in two thousand and fourteen bought a majority of scots voted to remain in the e.u. in two thousand and sixteen and breck's that referendum first minister nicola sturgeon says she wants another independence vote just yet as in pay members had called on her to delay them all central some time in the twenty twenties. that wouldn't give any further consideration to the timing and tell breaks on the thames

the population not. candidates with developmental. platforms many political observers believe that voters are not asking the right questions which is really tragedy. a newborn democracy is. too corny is a product of the country's broken education system. she and her neighbor take turns teaching their children the little the know this let's not use. my children the sick. i mean. the literacy rate here is about thirty percent. some candidates have promised better life from liberia and from poverty reduction to education and providing

infrastructure one thing the center of what the one so far is a campaign. only to record itself i mean market development for a country that emerged from. the election hopes. the election commission is confident of successful elections that could lead to a transition from one democratic government to another for the first time in more than forty as one of the challenges we had of course were. some part of our country difficult to reach because we're all connected but we were blessed to have the only alien graciously agreed to provide air support to transport how much here's a presidential aspirant needs to win more than fifty percent of the vote for the runoff for legislators though a simple majority will do. but it greece. what drove you. still

caspian sea area. the mediterranean we've got a chance of one of two showers coming in here but for much of time the weather looking dry showers though over parts of turkey and some of those could not be quite heavy heading into tuesday still showers across those eastern areas now here in the arabian peninsula looking fine it's just beginning to cool the humidity is dropping very slightly so when i had a more pleasant time of the year thirty eight degrees the high and thirty six in abu dhabi dry heat remains in place across the western side with with that mecca coming in this thirty forty one and forty one again as we head on through into tuesday about states looking at little bit more the way of playa perhaps temperatures of twenty five degrees for southern portions of africa we've got a lot of rain across the eastern parts of south africa into the sotto swaziland think it should be largely drawing further nor sunshine in zimbabwe harare looking at temperatures there of twenty nine so you head on into tuesday should be fine

across much in the maybe a two with highs of twenty eight when took. the weather spawns. my cat's own. news has never been more available it's a constant barrage every day but the message is simplistic you have the brain good logical rational people versus crazy amounts and misinformation is rife dismissal and does not go over well documented accusations and evidence is part of genocide the listening provides a critical counterpoint challenging mainstream media narratives of this time on al-jazeera.

good to have you with us on al-jazeera these are our top stories. in process to any visitor visas for u.s. citizens that's after washington suspended nonimmigrant visa services at its missions an encore and istanbul all this comes after a u.s. consulate official in turkey was arrested for alleged links to a u.s. base turkish businessman in ankara accuses of plotting a cruise last year. at least twelve people have drowned after a boat carrying rangar refugees from myanmar to bank of a ship capsized as the third such incident since people started escaping violence and state in august and hundreds of thousands of people have joining us here valley in spain's catalonia region one week after the session referendum the regional government is considering a unilateral declaration of independence. the un refugee agency says nearly two thirds of refugees arriving in zambia from the democratic republic of congo the children and some crossing the border alone and it's worried they'll be more

because of insecurity in the republic. how to toss a report from come in zambia near the d.l.c. border. and his brother are making a door for their new home it's a temporary structure at a refugee transit center in zambia the teenagers walk for weeks from democratic republic of congo where security forces are fighting different militia groups they say some adults try to discourage them from making a dangerous journey but they kept on moving. even. my parents were both killed when the billet was about the only thing i could do was run and leave the country i was told. people won't follow. i walked for a long time i missed my parents but at least i'm alive and so. the united nations refugee agency says sixty percent of refugees crossing into zambia are children dozens making the journey alone others come with relatives because they got

separated from their parents during the conflict so you have children who have fled because they have lost their parents and they have experienced the killing of their parents and you have children who come here because they came home to empty homes and then you have children who came here and telling us the story forster treatments of fear abduction u.n. officials say on average between sixty and one hundred people are coming to get every day this group has just arrived the women say they couldn't leave the unaccompanied children behind to die or get up ducted by the militia the d r c a border is only a few meters away children who come alone sometimes wait in neighboring villages hoping their parents they can wait for days they can wait for weeks sometimes they never hear from their families again the refugees try to center in chile is filling up fast there are nearly four thousand registered refugees the humanitarian needs are huge aid workers say unaccompanied or separated children need to be placed in

foster homes many are traumatized others show signs of my nutrition these kids are waiting for their mother to join them they crossed the border together but their mother was rushed to hospital because she's about to give birth she told them she will come and find them but they don't know how long that could take but now they are alone in a new country. al-jazeera compound zambia. the trouble ministration has outlined hardline immigration policy is on the list of principles that's shown to congressional leaders that wants to reduce immigration. by limiting the number of growing calls for family members of u.s. citizens trump wants to employ an additional ten thousand and gratian officers and judges to deport criminals and unaccompanied children the white house has also addressed the issue of people who came to the u.s. as children known as dream is trump says to protect them from deportation congress must approve funding for a war on the border with mexico democrats have rolled out that bargain saying it's

far beyond what's reasonable. a single u.s. republican senator says president tranced twitter activity is hurting the country's foreign policy bob corker chairs the foreign relations committee has told the new york times that trumps threats to other countries could set the us on the path to world war three cause interview comes after the president attacked him on twitter over his refusal to run for another term. president trump has accused iran of funding north korea's regime and described it as a bad player in the two thousand and fifteen nuclear deal the agreement limits iran's nuclear program in return for believing economic sanctions there are reports trump may decertify the deal i believe they're funding north korea i believe they're trading with north korea i believe they're doing things with north korea that is totally inappropriate that doesn't pertain to the deal but in my opinion it does because it's called the spirit of a deal and you will see what i will be doing in the not too distant future but iran

is a bad player. and they will be taken care of as a bad player more than one hundred thousand people are without power in the u.s. after hurricane named to head the gulf coast the worst affected states the mississippi alabama and louisiana they quickly weakened and since been downgraded to a tropical storm they have been no deaths or injuries reported in the u.s. but up to thirty people were killed when the harken hit central america daniel shiela has more from new orleans. so a huge sigh of relief certainly here in new orleans where it seems as though the flood defenses built in the aftermath of the devastating hurricane katrina of two thousand and five have held out the mississippi river here behind me behaving itself. nate became a category one hurricane but reduced to a tropical storm shortly after making landfall there has been substantial damage in some parts of the region severe flooding certainly in the city of biloxi

mississippi and other places people have been out early this morning this sunday morning here assessing the damage to property several tens of thousands of houses with the power out your storage is out trying to restore that as soon as they possibly can it's a very different story in central america where the tropical storm as it then was hit several countries in the region killing at least twenty five people causing substantial damage the flooding still a parent there as a people working to assess what damage was done in that region very different story here there has still been damage but very peaceful morning here here in new orleans people coming out assessing what damage might have been done to their properties and dealing with the little flooding that there has been a hollywood film producer harvey weinstein has been fired from the studio he co-founded weinstein went on and they have that after the new york times published

a report on thursday containing allegations of sexual harassment the weinstein company's board of directors says it has new information about his conduct and didn't go into detail. well countries across latin america have been marking the fiftieth anniversary of the death of che guevara several thousand people have attended a ceremony in the cuban city of santa claus to remember the revolutionary fighter a lot of became known for his role in the cuban revolution of one thousand fifty nine fighting alongside fidel and raul castro they say a new man takes a look at his legacy. perhaps no revolutionary has been as romanticized as a new still divided or change as he was known. the arjun time born dr who fought by the del castro side played a key role in the cuban revolution he then tried to launch marxist uprisings in the congo and then bolivia where he was captured and executed the images taken after

his death in which many say he looked like christ only added to his legend as a left wing martyr. the oscar winning film motorcycle diaries was based on his early years. when he was fourteen harry yes joined chair in the fight for revolution in the cuban mountains for the next twelve years he never left his side until he miraculously managed to escape capture during chase final battle against the bolivian army. we had behind bushes and on a small radio we heard the news that cherry had been captured and killed the wings of our hearts found the years says the cheers reputation as a tough but just revolutionary who practiced what he preached was well earned. he felt because he had more education and thus you had a great obligations to set the example you always lead by example you have a cutter's up a break so that he could demand the best from us. today to give out his image has

become immortalized especially in cuba some would probably say tour much to give out or has become the ultimate revolutionary i call and i must have all the tourists that come to this island his face is absolutely. everywhere from these bags to t. shirts as you can see to knapsacks everything you can possibly imagine the kind of image the chick about to himself would probably not have approved of. but he would surely have been proud to know that for the last fifty years cuban schoolchildren have been taught to follow his example every morning and every day they recite this chant you know. it means pioneers for communism we shall be like. to do the new generations of cubans really believe that we consulted a group we found trying to access a wife i signal next to an internet cafe for me it's like a poem that you memorize but you don't act on it very few people actually follow

and chase footsteps we all think differently today che's marxist version of revolution is considered by most as an anachronism yet the consensus here seems to be the chair represents an ideal a selfless rebel unlike so many others did not live to betray his principles and it's that image of change that has never aged you see in human. well michael casey is author of chains art a life and legacy of an element he says the iconic image of god a help for the castro to revive support for the revolution in cuba. the book really was an attempt to try to come to terms with how this what images i would argue is the most reproduced image in history and i'm actually talking there about all the derivative works that built upon it. not so much like just a massive replication of an image like marilyn monroes it was and when you talk about shaders. castro in my view was instrumental there was there was

a lot of room moralizing and time and the image was placed in the public consciousness and sort of attached to this idealized version of revolution and so yes but we needed to create it because it the reality was that the cuban revolution was losing its idealism castro was signing on to the so the unions demands that he sort of blind to their era credit taken communism and that he would support their invasion of. czechoslovakia for example and he needed to provide at least an image to the sort of bread and as it's truly revolutionary and so he lacks and so. i don't and i'm of the proud of and the headlines on al-jazeera and turkey and the

u.s. so involved in her badly escalating diplomatic dispute turkey says i want a process of things as for u.s. citizens who want to travel there that comes after the u.s. announced it would stop the showing on and of and things of this at that and the same consulates in turkey the country say they need to reassess each other's commitment to the security of the embassy of em to say and consulate staff a u.s. consulate employee was arrested estimable last week over alleged lengths to the man turkey blames for plotting last year's failed. donna struggles following the story from washington d.c. . there are some a dozen other u.s. citizens who have been arrested and detained in turkey one includes a nasa scientist another is a christian missionary vice president mike pence and secretary of state rex tillerson have been trying to get that missionary freed without success so yet another volley has been has been filed over the last few days in this

diplomatic snafu at least twelve people have drowned off for a boat capsized as it was carrying writing of refugees from myanmar to bond with their ten of them with children as the third time on a boat carrying people escaping violence and nine months of state has capsized hundreds of thousands of people have joined a unity rally in spain's customer in your region a week after the session referendum the regional government is considering a unilateral declaration of independence the trumpet ministration has outlined a hardline immigration policies in a list of principles and shown to congressional leaders it wants to reduce immigration by limiting the number of going cars for family members of u.s. citizens to employ an additional ten thousand immigration officers to deport criminals and unaccompanied children he also blind there just to penalize slow course sanctuary cities because they refuse to share information to help the government and force immigration nor. does the headlines on al-jazeera but

do stay with us the listening post is coming up next thank you for watching. on counting a cost u.s. billionaire president donald trump wants to cut taxes but how will his plan impact ordinary americans spain versus catalonia the economic implications plus comic given what's behind the collapse of australia's auto industry counting the cost at this time on al-jazeera. one of the of what we still better for people that are doing a show down with a whistle referendum on. what was going on in the past you think. about this i'm worried about alarm richard gilbert if you're at the listening post who are some of the media store.
