6:40 am
and out of i either that or stuff yes that's my thought i don't know yes well i mean does. it bother me and get away yes just a thought on the on total seat when only my thoughts in a c.p.u. are they while yallop being made on what they were left with them into another but i was a boy in that and if you mean its full name and does not appear in thought about an assault at all a and if you see more than when you bought it on a t. yes. it's on by a lot of a game it does in the us the. form of the bloody the said lobby that bit of it even more than it is. but i.
6:41 am
thought i wouldn't be coming to look at with. more and goodness knows how to. do this job it could be the. one that they. embody this helicopter in that they could ask it one that they were missed. but a vehicle. it took place less personnel to get in the us didn't. get it started. but in the process of a few on. this one out for my. stuff personal national motto.
6:42 am
i thought that if this panel course i could defeat. i said yes complete but again. we're very lucky in that i don't. see it in a massive fourth place by now i mean it's been like this the last and i suspect the last. stop for them in the soup and. likely second to make up i mean it's nothing. and throw it into an established by no. i mean i said we'll just. said. in.
6:43 am
one of the. places they. get their money. and. it's from about that i will be. there. but i.
6:44 am
am. not a present. and i want to. be them so if a man and it is the demand. i mean there's a. way that. i started it i mean. what are their. eyes ok ok i want everything out of a muslim and i don't. know. and i don't know i say the name out of. and i don't yes you know. what if i stuck a student beside this i'd never said. you know all. i have and they
6:45 am
are going to be an asshole also given that you're just not going to start this article but does that mean that if i don't think of it that i will but i don't know it with a simple but i think i. might on the boil but i'm not quite there yet but i said i think i said because i mean how do you actually put up with out of. some of them up with a thought on a bike you know. they said there was some of. the by the know what i mean them in they go but i think what's up with. radio and no one knows i mean what good. is it when i said something to this how do i. get them one on one and and what about. that and then he was ok in the same thing which i will tell you if you focus it on my home without then kill him with those videos those companies come up with you that i don't know this young and i don't send me but that is how you get that and i think it's unfair they say but that's.

6:51 am
. this is al jazeera. i'm jane dutton this is the news live from doha coming up in the program fighting erupts in care cook as the iraqi army advances towards the kurdish held city. anger and sorrow as two hundred seventy six people are killed in the deadliest single attack in the somali capital. austria looks set to elect one of the world's youngest leaders in a vote that marks the country's shift to the right plus. one hundred if we keep
6:52 am
trying to investigate the truth about issues and reclined states my life could be in danger in the line of fire me and trying to muzzle the media for reporting on the rehang a crisis. we begin in iraq where simmering tensions have escalated into skirmishes between government forces and kurdish fighters near kirkuk the iraqi army is advancing on the kurdish held city with state television reporting that troops of already retaken vast areas in the oil rich region the reuters news agency is quoting iraqi military officials saying the objective is to retake control of a key air base and oil fields to the west of the city. yes megaforce is inside kirkuk also mobilizing they've been gathering in the city over the past few days
6:53 am
and kurdish leaders met a few hours ago to discuss the crisis they call for dialogue but said they won't do so under pressure from what they describe as military threats from baghdad the kurds have also rejected calls to know the results of last month's referendum on says sation iraqi government refuses to recognize the vote stratford as more on the rising tensions from bill in northern iraq. the iraqi military saying that this operation is being spearheaded by the ninth armored division the federal police and counterterrorism units they saying that the thousands of shia militias are very much in a supportive role we understand that this offensive is focused on oil fields to the north the west the south all of that oil rich city of kirkuk and also the k. one military base k one military base was taken control of by kurdish peshmerga in two thousand and fourteen after the iraqi army fled and eisel offensive kirkuk is
6:54 am
hugely important for the k r g and for the iraqi federal government is one of the two main oil producing areas of this country believed to have around four percent of the world's oil resources and it was taking control of by the peshmerga as i say after the iraqi army fled that are still offensive in two thousand and forty and it participated in the controversial referendum on a future session from iraq last month's kurdish forces in and around that city have vowed to defend it to the last man we hear that the kurdish governor of kirkuk has called people in the cities are saying anybody with a weapon should defend the city prime minister about the seeming to try to calm the situation by saying that the offensive was not aimed at the people of kirkuk and that they should cooperate with the iraqi military but a very worrying development it seems as if all diplomatic efforts have failed in
6:55 am
the build up of those troops that we've seen towards peshmerga positions despite repeated dolls' by the iraqi army that they were going to move on into the city and retake these oil fields it seems very much as if that is happening now. israel also dan is a retired brigadier general of iraq's army joins us via skype from an acis in virginia a very good to have you with us when you look at what's happening on the ground now in the movement of the iraqi forces and who's involved talk us through the strategy and what you think the end game is here. paul look. or this kind of situation one or more productive or a perspective. or a report you want to pick advantage. of. could you know government. to annex all of the disputed
6:56 am
areas. so. we. would have to go. all right. sorry but i'm going to interrupt you because we've lost your audio there and i can't hear apologies here is defense department spokeswoman has urged both sides to overcome their differences saying we oppose violence from any party and urge against destabilizing actions that distract from the fight against isis and further undermine iraq's stability dialogue remains the best option to diffuse ongoing tensions and longstanding issues in accordance with the iraqi constitution now earlier i spoke to five or is a body who is the director of the center for the study of the middle east at
6:57 am
indiana university he says the u.s. could play a key role in resolving the crisis. it was inevitable after the referendum of the. so long as the kurdish leadership moved to make a compromise this is why the united states the united nations the european union and the entire. community urged the kurds to delay the referendum so long as the kurds were willing to remain within iraq control. and the oil fields. was not as critical an issue after the referendum when the independence while there is a day. kurdistan the presence of. the stakes became much much higher and this unfortunately as a result i actually don't know why but that did on a renunciation of the referendum because tradition that it is unconstitutional and
6:58 am
the and illegal and the international community's position that it is illegitimate means it is in fact a novelty so there's no reason really to have insisted on a see action by the kurdish side of the referendum but at this point the role of the united states needs to play with its allies in iraq. mediator and facilitator of dialogue making it clear that the iraqi constitution which calls for the unity of the country within a federated system. that is u.s. policy and that is what the united states support and the solving the problems between the two parties including some legitimate grievances that the kurds have that this is not the way to solve them are going to go back to ismail danniella tied to get a general of iraq's army good to have you back with us to explain to us the strategy that we are seeing at play at the moment. well i was saying that
6:59 am
this situation was like a suspected for the post isis era if you like that. are from ranking of the. however the very very hated you know iraq oddly know best with the. if iraqi army has a part of the nation with the local authority of the city as well as with a.r.g.s though that the operation will go smoothly and the iraqi forces will retake the a lot of camps as well as the air base and the oil fields. apparently. the two. parties the iraqi government and because we know that there have been directed their forces not too far i think. which is good in you i think
7:00 am
this is a very thinking right been. told there would be no any reduction for what's happening . a current iraqi government is willing to take back the whole all the fifty from the chaos. and the sun is not great but at least we're going to try to push on do you think they can take on the passion again if it comes to that. well marjah senses are a part of the iraq if you force it and they force together i think. i think you know if it is widely they should work together and jointly i don't think the iraqi government will fight with with marjah because i don't know there is there will be a winner and the and the so on and the war which mark and they are often for the. if the. the the fight will be erupted between the two party.
7:01 am
us adani thank you. shock disbelief sorrow somalia is in mourning after two hundred seventy six people were killed in a massive suicide bombing in the capital mogadishu the blast being described as the deadliest single attack on record as also left hundreds injured it's still not clear who carried out the carnage somalia's government is blaming but a senior member of the armed group has denied any role. catherine sawyer reports from nairobi in neighboring kenya. when people in somalia's capital mogadishu are trying to come to terms with one of the worst car bomb attacks ever a truck bomb exploded outside a hotel at an intersection lined with government offices restaurants and shops hours later a second blast struck another business district in the city most of the buildings in those areas have been destroyed still being pulled out of the rubble president
7:02 am
mohammed up to life visited the scene his government has declared three days of mourning and you know that. the target of these terrorist is not government officials but civilians as you see here there are no government buildings only civilians who are going about their daily life we have to come together and fight these monsters until we eradicate them from our country. speaking to al-jazeera the united nations deputy special envoy to somalia say despite such attacks the security situation around the country has improved a great efforts have been made by the government to particular secure the city but also other areas in in the country but nevertheless when one is desperate enough to get through these kind of things do happen and we've seen it yet again into mali and fortunately doctors are doing their best with limited resources to deal with the many people who have been injured dozens are in critical condition several have
7:03 am
lost limbs so. what happened yesterday was incredible i have never seen such a thing before and the death toll is uncountable corpses were burned and no one could recognize them. attacks on soft targets like markets and restaurants have become common in somalia this one apart is just how large it was and the devastation it has caused right now people are in hospital supplies like blood are i did he needed many. are wondering how someone was able to drive a year called packed with explosives into the heart of the city catherine saw al jazeera nairobi kenya. hundreds of somalis have marched in mogadishu to voice their anger at the bombing some said they lost faith in the state's ability to protect people. so there's bombing targeting somalia's foreign ministry has been seen as an attempt to destabilize the government of president mohammed ali he had recently announced
7:04 am
a military campaign against armed groups including al shabaab which has stepped up attacks across somalia in recent months the effort is being supported by the u.s. which has been carrying out drone strikes against the rebels the head of the u.s. africa command met with the moderate just two days before the attack that meeting coincided with the resignation of both the defense minister and army chief without giving any reasons but israel is a somali scholar and a professor at the university of minnesota he says it's almost certain that al shabaab is behind the attack. i don't think the claim by al shabab is true because the truck came from a region of the country west of mogadishu were they control and as you said there is nobody else who has those capabilities and sharon has done something like this but only in small of form i was more in mogadishu in two thousand and eleven giving a lecture at one of the local universities one of the blue another of this kind but
7:05 am
that one killed maybe a third or fourth of the population got it so in my mind there is absolutely no doubt that it's all shot i don't think we'll see any more than they have already done what needs to be done in my opinion is to provide the resources necessary to mobilize ten to twenty thousand somali security forces that are highly more wild that are professional in nature and who have resources unlike imus some of those people in my opinion will be able to drive them into the sea but as long as the amazon forest african union force and american sort of drones and all of that stuff will be able to stay in power in the countryside where they run roughshod over everybody else please go ahead in the news including all eyes on catalonia as president as madrid waits for an answer on the region's lead to break away. some of california's worst wildfires are now you know killed at least in. sports roger federer gets the better of his fierce rival rafa nadal at the shanghai masters.
7:06 am
postures conservative leader sebastian kurtz has claimed victory in the general election of just thirty one so make him the world's youngest leader he's people's party won more than thirty one percent of the vote but he will need to form a coalition government now as they have a change reports the results mark as sharp shift to the political right. and emphatic victory for sebastian kurtz just thirty one years old and already the chancellor of austria in waiting his first call to party headquarters and i thank you to supporters he described as making the impossible possible. today the voters men and women in this country gave us a great mandate we must be aware of this opportunity the women and men are putting
7:07 am
their hopes into this movement we will use all our strength and all of our fight to bring about change in this country i invite you to go on this path with us there is much to do to establish a new style a new culture a politics political analysts say his victory makes it clear that turbulent rise of right wing populism is far from over of course this is a cause. so. labeled the whiz kid joined the campaign the leader of the conservative people's party achieved his ambition by being tough on what he called illegal migration kurtz has been accused of ruthless opportunism by his former coalition partners stealing the clothes and the policies of the hard right. no one party has an absolute majority in the national parliament sir coalition will have to be formed but who will kurtz now choose as his partner. most bets are on the hard right freedom party led by heinz
7:08 am
christian straka it's been more than a decade since they've been in a governing coalition but tonight they were celebrating a significant surge in support the little people called them to the people see this shows the tree as it looks who will be able to celebrate the best result in the history of the party and it also shows that the wish for change is strong in austria. that feeling might not be shared by austria's muslim community the card of islamophobia has been successfully played in this election leaving them more isolated and vulnerable david chaytor. vienna. bell is and is a professor of sociology at cornell university and conducts research on nationalism in europe she says it's not clear which direction kurtz will go in choosing a coalition government. it's not surprising that it is and you're right a candidate would actually win what's more interesting is at least to me
7:09 am
the decision of the heart right. and the fact that. there was a great deal of celebration as it were in december when you're really did not make it to the presidency of austria and people sort of have this feeling well that you know we've beaten that the right wing challenge in austria and in the spring when a man who. got elected in france it was more of that kind of notion the hard drive is gone. but that was hardly likely to be the case because the hard drive it's driven by a lot of problems that are not only unique to austria he has a lot of the dish and the hard right and he certainly. wants controlled immigration. so in theory he could actually go for the center left.
7:10 am
but the center left the idea of a center left and center right coalition boaters in austria seem to be i'm interested in that particular coalition so he may actually go right i mean i don't have. it which would actually consolidate the general sort of nationalist turn as it were catalonia as president has less than twenty four hours to say whether or not hilda k. independence following this a session referendum if he says yes spain's prime minister may take the unprecedented step of removing the region's political autonomy sonny gago reports from barcelona. facing up to the biggest challenge of his political career all eyes are on catalunya as president carter's prejudgment the man who could be about to declare europe's newest state here remembering the life of the last man
7:11 am
who declared an independent catalan republic. in one thousand nine hundred forty this was with a castle and president. was executed by firing squad for a belling against the military rule of general francisco franco with only hours to go until this depleted what except what defies the order from the dread to end his drive for secession he gave no clue as to his intention. on behalf of the government and myself i want to reiterate our commitment. to. democracy as the inspiration for the decisions we have to make. on the eve of the day when mr preacher want is expected to confirm or deny his declaration of independence his presence here at memorial ceremony for a hero of catalan independence is not going unnoticed and many here are drawing parallels with that situation. there has been much emotion stoked here in the past
7:12 am
few weeks but the attempt to frame this as a story of oppression of a wealthy region by the central government is not convincing the european union despite the violent crackdown by madrid on any attempt to push ahead with self-determination if the. army. with a peaceful. position never used the balance to defend our arguments. the catalonia of today is different from the embattled place it was during the spanish civil war but for the. gabaa ted the specter of pasta heroes of the cause is never far away even if catalonia is pro independence politicians step back there's no guarantee that they won't pay the price for their part in spain's
7:13 am
current constitutional crisis so new diagonal al-jazeera barcelona. the exodus of rango from the rakhine state has shocked the world yet four journalists in the country simply reporting the story has led to arrests and refusing to accept the government's propaganda has left some fearing for their lives from young gone. reports. in a yangon cafe i meet men meet he's visiting from his home state of record time when he runs a monthly political magazine it's a risky business the twenty eight year old shows me photos of the bombing attack on his house last year which he says was due to his reporting in rakhine. if we keep trying to investigate the truth about issues and reclined states my life could be in danger. coverage of stories about muslims during the recent incidents on monday or we had to be silent we almost don't cover it because we have to be very careful
7:14 am
. more than half a million rohingya have fled main mar to bangladesh since late august after a military campaign the united nations has called ethnic cleansing but you're unlikely to hear it reported that way in mean ma i wonder what it comes to and your issue. a traitor this reporter says he's been harassed online and even threatened in person for his reporting and reckon he doesn't want to reveal his identity because he fears for the public backlash and you're feeling more crammed and you know you feel crap when you're writing the news before it's proper you you have this fear what would be the public you know response. will be swearing at me again online. directing a fact you know the journalist walk how does he or has spoken to about half a dozen journalists from me also say that facing some form of harassment even death
7:15 am
threats for not telling the government line on the range of issues just to give you an example of what that narrative is this is one of the country's daily best selling newspapers and it said that authorities are saying they'll continue to fight with their holy terrorism in iraq and state government social media also run the line that burning their homes including posting a photo of this couple who were later found to be hindu. the burning of ranger homes was recently cited in a united nations report as being part of a campaign to expel and prevent the return of rohingya to me but the government says it's false and that these kind of attacks are not happening these accusations are spreading throughout the world even though there's been no attack after the fifth of september and this is due to the media's role and this is very bad performance of the media i can say these media are bullying us i think it's fair to
7:16 am
say that the government's p.r. . machine on this entire issue has been absolutely dreadful and it's been something almost orwellian dystopian. and incredibly cheap and nasty minin worries not just for his country's future but that of his magazine he lost two of his six dollars this month because he wouldn't let them use the words bengali terrorist in their reports he remains afraid of what else he could lose if he continues to search for the truth in me. al jazeera gone. more than half a million. since august when a military crackdown began across the border in bangladesh refugee camps are overcrowded and children are missing it could have a long camp in cox's bazaar. met one man who's trying to bring lost relatives back together. the ones that. were come almost sane the time had come to try and make

that more than seven hundred families have so far been reunited and. i have family to you i have kids too if i lost my own kids then i would feel very bad so until i'm able to give the lost children back to their parents i remain distressed when i can return children to their parents then i feel a pace kemal knows the chances of children being found increases when people can continue to communicate with each other that's why he's also set up a charging station where refugees can charge their mobile phones for free come on have been working as a security guard for an aid organization when he first got the idea for this initiative to use the money from his own savings to rent a microphone and start calling out the names of the missing and the lost now he is doing this full time. normal hamad was frantic when he couldn't find his two and a half year old son. people told me that i should go to the booth with a microphone where a person named kemal will announce my baby's name i searched all over for my son
7:19 am
and still couldn't find him when i was about half of the way to the booth i heard that they were announcing that they had found a child then when i arrived i found my son with kemal now reunited with his son mohammad tells us he's not just relieved but also extremely grateful to come out but for every happy parent we find there is a distraught one. my son has been missing since last night i search for him yesterday all day and night as she waits for news alongside her other son mohammed aziz al more reaches desperation only deepens come all is all too familiar with this kind of suffering it's why he sits in this booth despite the heat it's why he works from early in the morning until late at night. finding children helping adults making a difference one name at a time. at the could to prolong camp and cox's bazar language still ahead on. venezuelans very much in the regional
