their homes they were living alongside a river that six years ago had a similar flood that washed away this bridge still people return to live here the fact is that with a growing population in mindanao people do tend to occupy vulnerable places river banks hillsides and so on the problem now for rescuers in mindanao is trying to reach more isolated communities especially with the destruction of infrastructure washing away of bridges roads that are closed or simply have been washed away the problem is trying to reach more remote communities with heavy equipment to continue the search for survivors and sadly as time continues it is now less a search for people alive it is more a search for bodies as the death toll amounts here in this part of mindanao there is also the added problem of the conflict that has been happening just

a short distance from here in morocco we this is a fight between government forces in groups linked with i so it's not known just what impact this storm will have on the security situation or on the search for a lasting peace but certainly for people who've been displaced from the area of the fighting and have been in temporary accommodation here in the early gand it certainly adds misery upon misery not only can they not return to the area of conflict that they've been evacuated from they'd simply don't know if they have any homes to go back to. jerry's military is confronted an attack by suspected boko haram fighters on the outskirts of the northeastern city of my do agree heavy gunfire was reported in the my lai area while army forces battle the fight says that there are said to be casualties many of them women and children and edges has more on this now from the jam according to security sources we've talked we've spoken to a short while ago but i was repelled by the military but it lasted

a fourth in office when the elections are held in march next year but no that was not to be the thirteen member panel of the central election committee decided twelve votes with one abstention so that they were going to. be from running against putin now the the argument they use is that he has this broad conviction and therefore is ineligible novelli has always said that although that may be the election rules actually the constitution which should have primacy says that any one of sound mind who is not in jail can run in the elections so he's going to take this to the constitutional courts to watch them to make a decision this was a heated exchange at times he was saying that the panel should do the right thing for once in their lives that nobody is holding a gun to their heads and that they should stop messing around with the election

panel fired back saying that he was brainwashing kids that he was disrespecting the election commission and that they hinted he was politically irrelevant anyway now what is now and we do next will of course i said he's going to take this to the constitutional courts but he's also saying that his supporters should boycott the election and he is saying that yes there will be street process they haven't set a date for these yet but he's saying that when the protests hits they will be nationwide. want to bring you another story now from russia where at least four people have been killed in a bus crash in the capital moscow footage shown on local media shows the bus careering down some stairs that lead to a metro station i think several people on the way the driver has been detained for questioning but police say it was not deliberate the mayor of moscow visited the scene and has ordered a full inspection of moscow's bus fleet pope francis has used his traditional christmas day message to call for a two state solution to the israel palestine conflict speaking to

sixth the city was profoundly concerned and i think there are some people in the people i've spoken to here that were hoping perhaps for something a little stronger in this long awaited message i mean he's he's mentioned the middle east every every christmas message since two thousand and thirteen and i think there was a feeling that he could have articulated his his concern and a little stronger and referenced drusilla in the context of this this are people that they're facing now. iberians are set to go to the polls in a presidential runoff that will see its first democratic transition of power in seventy years the former football star george where is taking on the country's vice president just because i both candidates have promised to revive liberia's struggling economy and kickstart infrastructure projects mamata doe reports from the capital monrovia. in the contest for the liberian presidency this month former

. libya as the biggest road for migrants and refugees has been recently receiving huge traffic of migrants crossing the libyan southern borders coming from african countries now during that tough journey their migrants take through in the libyan desert they face a lot of violations a lot of violence at the hands of people smugglers we hear stories about extortion about violence some planes in some cases reap many civil migrants die. at the hands of of the people or smugglers now they try to reach the libyan cost of to york to europe now libya's coast guard says that they have to arrest these migrants as long as they try to sail of libyan coast and as long as the are in libyan tutorial what us now libya's calls god bring is those

family and there are other days when i'm not able to do that the other day i had to take two of my children to the hospital because they didn't have enough food to. mohamed lives in. an opposition controlled area that has been besieged by government forces for years the siege has been tightened even more recently food supplies are scarce and shortages have sent prices soaring at least four hundred thousand people live in east on the outskirts of the capital the united nations has been demanding unhindered access and warns that many of syrians there face severe problems in getting enough to eat. the aid that reaches us is not enough is specially for someone like me i have to take care of seven children and my. only under siege it remains a war zone even though a russian guaranteed deescalation deal was supposed to silence the guns and allow

aid in. the running. of the building. and then we have more. fears for her children she is also afraid that her family could face further displacement the government has been using what is known as the surrender or starve strategy and it is applying it. and . if given the choice to leave or stay and live under the regime's rule i will choose to leave i don't trust them they will eventually kill the oppressed us they started this they killed our children. rebels and refused to surrender but government pressure is growing already hundreds of thousands of syrians have been bussed out of their towns and villages and taken to the rebel controlled province

of in the north the syrian government calls them reconciliation agreements for the opposition those deals are forced settlements and. i don't think. those who are forced to go to will ever return to their homes this is sports displacement who knows who they will give our country to it's been almost eight years since government forces began to crush popular dissent from a position of strength the us and leadership is imposing its own peace but it is a peace that is unacceptable to many syrians who now fear not having a place in their own country. and living tough got to stand now where the parliament has summoned senior security officials after at least six people died in a suicide bombing in the capital kabul the explosion happening are intelligent agency building in kabul neighborhood the attacker reportedly approached the agency's entrance on foot before blowing himself up i still has claimed

carrying illegal arms. and vehicles with with no ridges thracian there is very tight security around the city even at checkpoints that are canine dogs searching vehicles but still these measures haven't worked in terms of stopping by our suicide bomber on foot who reached least close to the afghan intelligence headquarters thirty seven bodies have now been recovered from a shopping mall in the philippines city after val they were trapped on the top floor when a five hour account on saturday the fire chief described the mall as an enclosed space with no ventilation a criminal investigation is on the way. when hurricane slammed into the u.s. state of florida in september the damage was extensive since then much of the state has recovered but in one small farming community the daily struggle continues the

city of remarkably is almost entirely made up of migrant workers many of whom lost their jobs when the storm hit and the calico reports. turned a storm our house. had several leaks the roof was not strong enough to sustain that when when hurricane hit this poor farming community on the edge of the everglades it took maria because this roof since then things have become worse repairs of yet to be made government help has been slow and hackett's family home is full of mold like many here the family couldn't afford insurance it's hard even even though they give you extra food stamps or whatever to the migrants or whatever it is it's still hard baghdad i said there's twelve of us here and you know we have to split our food are you know you know we're lower our portion residents are almost entirely dependent on agricultural jobs but the storm took close to the loss of income and damage to homes is being felt across the community democrates community school

built for migrants teachers so even the children are being affected. by not having jobs them having money for them that's a lot of stress and sometimes they don't have money to buy the food so there's a lot of stress for the children's too if they're not eating well they have a hard time coming to school and in a city where more than half the population of thirty five thousand lives below the poverty line they used to fending for themselves. in the weeks following the storm teams of volunteers of handed out food and supplies and demand hasn't slowed we make phone calls as soon as we get product then and that different churches and different organizations show up and everything that comes in here it's not a warehouse it's a distribution center so as soon as it comes in it moves out it was a poor farming community before hurricane hit and once it's a media it needs have been met that's not going to change there was some government help there but what we've seen overwhelmingly is a community through it's just volunteers and members of society coming together to

of the benefits will be passed on to the world's working people some global brands are discussing whether to reach shore manufacturing from asian sweat shops to europe where three d. princes might make clothes or shoes the world bank has projected that in some african or asian countries up to eighty percent of people might lose their jobs. if it's true that many workers and many of them young women particular textile and software industries operatives are going to be out of a job or their work is potentially radically reduced then to what extent will this lead to social unrest to social destitution and essentially a fundamental crisis of the whole that society others ask why someone who owns a factory in the far east would bother investing in expensive robotic technology but it's far cheaper to keep paying workers a dollar a day to machine like that at the moment will be well beyond the reach of a factory owner in bangladesh or in china or vietnam for that matter.

secondly a machine like that is likely to break down fairly often because it's it's a very fine piece of equipment if it breaks down the whole factory and then many in a factory the entire factory comes to a standstill social unrest is already a fact of life it could get far worse so to the continued and probably growing movements of people except the west they may want to move to might be suffering job losses itself as automation takes over. if the future of the developing world is to be decided in places right there then frankly it looks pretty bleak either it seems robotics will increasingly be used to take jobs away from no three different associated with places like asia or those same workers will continue to exist on the same person for the ever and for years about the worst thing of all is that nobody seems to be talking about it there is however

a growing understanding of how automation can help in emergencies here at southampton university in southern england drones are being tested to fly medicines or food into dangerous or difficult places it's simpler and potentially more effective than throwing bags out of planes you can send lots of little bits of aid to lots of little areas and it's trivial and strike home. to pinpoint as in other words take the aid to where it's needed dropping it centrally in the rich world robotics could take away many current jobs but it could also create new ones which haven't even been trumped up yet but for those in the workshops of the world it could be disastrous and it's coming honestly al-jazeera london on cheese day in the next part of this series we let go of the wheel and the brakes you get to see lawrence driving into the age of early automated cars a. quick
