i'm c. ters and this is al jazeera live from london also coming up a double suicide bombing during rush hour killed at least thirty eight people in a central bank that square flight suspended after gunmen stormed the only functioning airport in libya's capital a walkway collapses in indonesia stock exchange building injuring more than seventy people. and south korea makes public transport free during peak travel times to tackle pollution in seoul but will it work. turkey syria and russia have attacked the us clan to form a thirty thousand strong border security force in northern syria circus president accused washington of trying to create a terror army and pledged to quote drown its before it comes into being and the

syrian government has vowed to drive the u.s. presence from its territory the u.s. says the force will secure areas along syria's border to the north with turkey and to the east with iraq it will be mostly made up of fighters from the syrian democratic forces who turkey considers terrorists yes yes it is a u.s. backed alliance of kurdish and arab fighters which currently controls over almost twenty five percent of syrian territory in the north east while turkey is present at your type heard iran says it is vital to stand up to the u.s. . showed it didn't exist. now the united states has confessed that they are forming a terror army along our border what we have to do is to strangle this terror army on our borders before it is born. i'll send him the signal who has more from an attack in turkey near the border with syria prisons are done today also war that turkey will be drawn thing these groups because turkey sees why p.g.

which is the backbone of s.t. have syrian democratic forces as an offshoot of p.k. the kurdistan workers' party and it's an alp old organization for turkey e.u. and the united states they are listed as terrorist groups so turkey says it as if it's a united states is directly strengthening and arming p.k. k. while arming the i.p.g. and unclear says the weapons that us provided to them will be used against us one day and that's why we should solve this problem immediately we should launch an operation before why p.g. and p k k. fires the arms to turkey this is the turkish discourse but of course one major concern was whether russia would ever say to go for turkey because russia has a strong word over a friend but it seems after today today's statements by love row that russia also

will support turkey in a decision to launch this operation and even the syrian regime sees the united states as a traitor because of this corporation with the y. p.g. . and russia says it's a us. foreign minister told the border force. to do it with pneumonia we're going to go to american say i so was not completely destroyed in syria but we can now see that the us are not interested in the territorial integrity of syria it announced a new initiative yesterday and they would like to support the democratic forces of syria and his own of border security which would mean cutting off large territories around turkey's border so this is a difficult area where there is tension between kurds and arabs these territories would be controlled by armed oppositions and u.s. forces it would be very difficult to split syria such an approach is taking place

without a u.n. resolution or negotiations in geneva russia iran and turkey expect clarifications from the u.s. . this has more now from. well since the beginning of the syrian conflict is one thing that is united pretty much all of the countries involved in one way or another in the war is their belief but at least publicly stated that the territorial integrity of syria has to be maintained well what we have heard out of turkey and moscow today suggests that both those countries are losing faith with the united states is being honest so that intention. said that he thought this plan for a border security force was essentially the united states trying to partition syria in some way lavrov also went on to big up russia's involvement in

the various parts of the dialogue process that are going on at the moment particularly asked on which he says is really helps in conflicts to some extent the syrian war he also said that the. dialogue congress that's supposed to be happening in sochi in russia later on in the month he said that this would bring together groups involved in the syrian crisis going to be excluded from the geneva process bring them into the fold and he says this would actually help the geneva process move forward essentially giving the in the united nations as he put it kind of a kick up the backside let's go live now to kimberly halkett for more on this in washington d.c. ken lay i'm guessing that those text behind this plan for this border force must have known it was going to ghana such reaction. oh absolutely i think there is

certainly a recognition of the sensitivities in the region but at the same time that denial when we reach out to the department of defense that the u.s. is in any way intentionally sort of trying to do what it's being accused of in fact just the opposite is telling al jazeera that this force will be made up of not just kurdish but also arab fighters that many have been in fact up to fifteen thousand have been working with the coalition task force in the past and there is this understanding of the region in terms of the fear that this is somehow going to be in terms of the patrol region defacto new border for some sort of autonomous region moving forward in the future the u.s. saying that is not the case that the u.s. is not giving preference to kurdish fighters in any way but essentially is recognizing the fragility of the region the fact that there is a desire by the united states and its partners to preserve the fragile gains that have been made and according to the partment

a fifth fence the reason that the kurdish fighters are being utilized so heavily is because they are the largest force in terms of size capable of accomplishing this school so the statement given to al-jazeera is in fact this is about preserving gains recognizing the sensitivities of the region and in no way trying to inflame the sensitivities while working in full transparency of allies that are concerned particularly when it comes to turkey many thanks campbell how could there with the latest from washington d.c. staying in syria and the government forces close to taking control of a strategically important. province it follows prolonged from meeting with a number of armed groups including taria which was previously affiliated with al qaida government come on the say troops are advancing on a whole base from some real positions to the southeast of the city of aleppo they say they've now taken control of more than four hundred square kilometers of the

of abduction as a foreign policy tool is something that has many people extremely worried. i'll just. wash a callid ben ali our phone is the brother of shake up dollar bill and he joins me now live from our doha studio thanks very much for joining us on al-jazeera could you just tell me first so i understand you've spoken to your brother how is he and how is he being treated with the evening so well my brother started contact me yesterday about nine o'clock. and he complained about that he's being denied to leave. and he's confused about what. all the information he's getting from the people there. and they kept him all day he was told that he can leave this to saudi arabia but not to u.k. and the end of the day he was allowed. to leave you eve and he has

two daughters with him and it was about twelve o'clock at night. there they told him that they have to go to the airport and then the information changed that you are not allowed to go to the u.k. the u.k. refuses your entry and that is false. and that your daughter's can leave and you must stay still stay in the. thank you very much. they say that you will post a false information that you have passports had been. provoked by qatar and this is not true and he has a valid passport in his hand and he can do anywhere he wants. they are giving excuses that moment and they had negotiation maybe all through the night. and today morning we learned that his health deteriorated and he had to be hospitalized

he's known as stable condition and they has a promise that as soon as the doctor release him he will leave you a but we have learned in the couple of days that pass that information was always been changing from hour to hour and we are asking everybody to help us to allow him to live to you because. that's his or his right here whether he wants to live in his statement that he made on that video he said look if anything happens to me this isn't cattle that's doing it he must be concerned then as to how the conditions are that he's been held and he must be worried about being held against his will. he was informed by them out of the top of his of plotting to assassinate him. and that's the reason they wouldn't allow him to go to the u.k. but he said there's my own risk my own life i would like to leave the so he was

afraid that somebody else might do it and stick the blame too. and that's what the mere reason for his video saying that. i don't believe that god will do anything to me do you know who is now getting involved to try and sort this out and indeed if he wants to come to the u.k. is there any effort being made by the u.k. as well as in the capital to try and get him his freedom. he was a guest with the king solomon in saudi arabia from the beginning and to the u.a.e. and i think he has people there that are trying to help him to leave but. we don't have any power directly and there i want to selves is just a humane thing so we go to the all the international organization involved in the human. welfare. apply today for all the national organizations to help us to secure his exit to do whatever he wants to go ok thank

part of emergency measures to tackle the poor air quality the concentration of fine particles in the air in seoul which dangerous levels on sunday after nowak has been talking to commuters and sell people may welcome a free ride but in terms of public reaction to this move by the sole city government there's quite a bit of cynicism about whether it will really work first of all souls' public transportation is already quite affordable it costs an average of about a dollar per ride and also people are blaming their pollution problems mostly on china. one turned over all the main cause of the fine dust issue comes from china so we don't think that's effective the issue should be fixed in china first. if public transportation is free when we have high levels of fine dust fear people will drive and it will help lessen the pollution or to be coming from china but if we can do something about it like having fewer cars it will hope china is taking

steps to curb pollution and actually the air quality here in south korea this winter has been a little bit better than it had been in previous years last year a joint study between a korean research institute and the u.s. space agency nasa found that between may and june actually only about a third of air pollution in south korea came from china and that may have been a little bit different if readings had been taken around this time of year still this move by sol city government is an example of off already in south korea trying to take control of pollution that is created domestically most of that comes from vehicles so they really want to take more cars off the road. sri lanka has reinstated a law banning women from buying alcohol just days after it was lifted the law was overturned by sri lankan president my three power sources say that as far as of his alcohol and drugs policy is also prevents women from working in liquor stores so
