people in a suicide bombing. or about this and this is all just zero live from doha also coming up syria's eastern ghouta bombs just hours after a fragile cease fire comes into effect. that was on sunday and is being called a study billionaire prince detained in riyadh for more than two months and allegations of corruption is set free plus. a nation divided protesters in honduras clashed with police as the president was sworn in for a second after a disputed election. the taliban says it was behind a bomb attack in afghanistan's capital that killed at least ninety five. five

people and injured more than one hundred fifty others they expose of this were hidden in an ambulance the bomber to get through security in couples green zone the city's most heavily protected area it's the second successful taliban attack in a week despite tight security jennifer glass reports. another day of carnage on the streets of kabul this time the bomb was in an ambulance the driver pretended to be taking someone to a nearby hospital but instead he detonated his device on a crowded street the taliban said it was targeting policemen having lunch but as so often happens here afghan civilians going about their daily lives are among the victims including people lined up outside the interior ministry's human resources department. i was in my office we heard the explosion we didn't know what was going on so many people were injured i myself counted at least forty wounded near me everyone was on the ground and i couldn't tell who was dead or who was wounded the street was already heavily guarded with a number of checkpoints protecting government offices embassies a hospital and

a school the area is usually bustling with people urgency services evacuated offices shops and agencies perceptor blocks can hear the security vehicles going by . taking away the wounded and the dead there have been casualties here this is a very busy part of town in addition to the high peace council the anti-corruption commission is also down there just down the streets at the u.n. mine agency and this is normally a very very busy part of kabul it's the second attack in the capital in a week taliban fighters battled security forces for more than fifteen hours at the city's intercontinental hotel in a cvs that killed twenty five people last saturday security has been stepped up around the city but it wasn't enough. the police on the army of afghanistan is a really young it's just seventeen or eighteen years old and they need more training they need more practice they need more experience. but the taliban on the

other hand they are very devoted fighters cobbles emergency hospital was flooded with patients it's a scene that's been repeated many times the president says the uptick in attacks is because of increased military pressure on armed groups and political pressure on pakistan maybe the case but it's the people here who continue to suffer the most jennifer glass al-jazeera cobbling at least fourteen soldiers have been killed in an attack on an army camp in mali seventeen all those were wounded in the attack near timbuktu the military says it killed seventeen of around thirty attackers and has reclaimed control of the base it's the worst attack on mali security forces in more than a year i would address has more from nigeria. seventeen million soldiers injured in the attack are receiving treatment in hospitals so say at least two of the attackers have been killed and i'm equal however told or jazeera that at least seventeen of the attackers have been killed there were also according to other

sources they were also able to contact way six vehicles arms and i mean nations and then set fire to the rest they cannot move now this attack is one of five or six attacks that happened in the last one week in northern mali although the rest have not been officially confirmed by the money in authorities however we're seeing increased cooperation and a new coalition between that made up of the two and more of the two and the al qaida and the islamic state and other fringe groups operating in northern mali that resulted in an increase in the number of attacks on both civilian and military targets in mali two or three days ago we're seeing how a civilian bus carrying passengers run over a mine that killed at least twenty thirty people in that incident now it looks like the muddy and such security forces unable to control the situation and it looks like things are on the military front it could probably lead to mali asking for forty assistance to help deal with the rising number of attacks in the north of the

country probably we may see a situation like the ones we've seen five six seven years ago when the french led an international coalition to cheese out al qaida and other i feel it to groups in northern mali before things quite in down a little bit in that area. the u.k. based syrian observatory for human rights says there have been multiple violations of a ceasefire in the rebel held area over eastern go to just less than a day after it went into effect the group says syrian government airstrikes killed three people and wounded many others on saturday and on friday syria's opposition confirmed it had received an offer from russia for a cease fire deal fighting now appears to have subsided stephanie decker has more from un talk in their turkey's border with syria. often when things are decided at the negotiating table thousands of kilometers away it's not exactly what transpires on the ground this is significant because it is the last rebel stronghold in the

vicinity of the capital damascus but what is most concerning is the situation there for the civilians the u.n. estimates around four hundred thousand people are trapped inside the air at least in which there is a severe lack of food and medicine and the u.n. also says that the issue of malnutrition is one of the worst in the syrian conflict so aid access into eastern for those people will be key and will be something that then could really change and improve the situation for people on the ground and we know within this conflict aid has always been a very difficult thing to negotiate cross lines all sides need to agree so that will be also one of the huge challenges ahead one of the world's richest men has been freed in saudi arabia after being held for two months and allegations of corruption prince all waleed bin talal is the latest high profile detainee to be released on a hawkster reports. just hours before billionaire saudi prince and waleed bin talib

was released from the ritz carlton hotel in riyadh he conducted an interview with the reuters news agency from the suite where he'd been confined been tell is one of saudi arabia's most prominent business men and one of the world's richest men but he's been held for more than two months accused of corruption in the interview he described the entire situation as a misunderstanding there no charges ok just some discussion between the government you know i mean but the rest assured that this is. no protection that we have and we're just in discussion with the government on the various matters and that i can't divulge right now because we are going there to discuss with them the mark perry and his likeness was just one of the many objects known as the prince gave a tour of where he'd been detained been teller's arrest in the van that was part of what the government called an anti corruption campaign ordered by crown prince mohammed bin solid money the government says one hundred twenty four billion dollars is expected to be seized for more than two hundred individuals

a group that is said to include the owner of the n.b.c. television network as well as several other senior princes observers say the crackdown has allowed in someone to do far more than simply consolidate power i think there are two things here it's about money because the saudi. government is facing financial difficulties because of the collapse of the oil prices over the past few years. when mr man is having very ambitious economic plan actually to reform the kingdom so he needs the cash money in order to carry on with this project but this is not the only issue the other issue in my opinion here is that he's trying to create a popular base of support for him because all these people are in fact caught up. in tahrir his farm hold stakes in companies like twitter citi group an apple is estimated to be worth seventeen. billion dollars his release could potentially

reassure investors but analysts believe the timing of his interview with reuters as the world economic forum met in davos was no coincidence having someone like prince to allow for example speak out publicly as he did yesterday shows that you know the saudis are trying to use him as somewhat the poster child of liberalism they're trying to appeal to investors overseas saying we realize that what we did and the way we did it with that courage last year we saw completely undermined big business confidence and investor confidence in saudi arabia entire has told reuters he expects to remain in full control of his global investment firm without being required to give up his assets to the government. as their. protests have marred the swearing in ceremony of the president of honduras demonstrators say there were irregularities in the vote counting that saw one of london hundreds when a second time he now only beat opposition leader salvador sala in november's election john horman has more. many hondurans might not like it but after

a turbulent period following the november elections president won and is is now beginning his second term now what is he going to do in the next four years we'll hear dress that in his inauguration address he talked about unemployment and finding more jobs for people he talked about cutting poverty those are two things that he really failed to resolve in the first four years in charge he talked about bettering the health system he talked about continuing to clamp down in terms of security just a few years back home douras was the deadliest country in the world outside of a war zone in terms of murders and he did manage to reduce that by sending the army and military police principally out on the streets now during that period of sending the military and the military police and the army out in the streets there were also alleged human rights violations in fact on douras is the deadliest

country in the world for environmental and land to be this he also talked about that in the human rights situation and he pledged to investigate in a brief part of his speech we get to see how much you follow through on that but above all of those things about what is the opportunity in the challenge to try and reunite a country that it's incredibly polarized very divided here between those who think that he should be in charge and those who think who think that he fiddled the results of the election and won it unfairly how he brings the country together and sets it on a successful path is how he's probably going to be judged at the end of these four years and as he himself said his challenge is to leave this country better than he found it for his successor also come a lot as a political analyst and he says numbers faces a difficult us to stabilize the country after the contested elections. i think that it's going to be very difficult for him we have had political instability since ten

years ago when i think it's important to mention when president. it wanted to put a fourth ballot by two thousand and nine elections in order to have a new constitution and what was sold back then was that the intention behind the president. ballot was reelection to come to under us and that divided the country and created political instability which ended up in a coupe in two thousand and nine and a coupole so it permeated the national party which this belongs to to assume power in honduras they started a process of controlling entities they changed the constitutional court of the supreme court and a group of senators of the national party went to the that court in order to have reelection permitted and under us were the constitution basically states that we election is not permitted and no reform can be made to that to that to that article

so we have had political instability economical crisis poverty is growing there's unemployment in the country so i mean i think he's he's a very strong politician he's a very active politician but he has a strong ties to looking forward for the next four years still ahead and al jazeera . i'm lauren flee on the river it's the land border between turkey and greece but it's all for the new frontline and the european union's attempts to keep refugees out. and grand slam glory at the last we'll have the details of carline was the case this truly an open success. through trying to rape. victims and it's going to. hello there things are turning cooler for us now in the

turkish security forces say they're arresting more refugees and migrants on the land border with northern greece now until recently the most popular route have been crossing the i.g.n. but a new one takes refugees overland to europe from istanbul in western turkey to villages near the border with greece from there they have to cross the wide and dangerous river if it us it's the international front tier people traffickers then leave them to walk for hours through forests on the greek side. as long as the reports from western turkey thousands are willing to risk their lives by making this new journey is done will isn't well known as a gathering point for refugees yet there is all the evidence you need that a significant smuggling operation is based here. in the central districts of x. arrive people from all kinds of places like ina fast so eritrea sri lanka

pakistan nobody wants to tell you much about their plans but they do spend a lot of time on the phones all the refugees are tried the same thing how the deal is done in the nearby coffee houses smugglers charge up to two thousand dollars. and one day turns tonight some of those smugglers will tell you just how big the trade is. we do three trips a week there are others working till there's a trip every day in istanbul there are more than fifty smugglers we take forty fifty sixty people a week it depends on time we took seventy five people in one trip these two who are kurdish and syrian former refugees used to smuggle people across the aegean sea to the greek islands but not anymore this is much better. so a lot of course the waves are too big in the sea we have worked there and it's too dangerous it was difficult at the laundromat is easier the river border is one

hundred fifty kilometers long this vast nothingness might feel safer to the traffickers than the sea but it's still hugely dangerous on the greek side they're a forest of mountains the refugees call the jungle their wild boar and wolves up there being eaten is a genuine concern. the smugglers drive the refugees to tiny depopulated villages where they hide out in abandoned buildings. that the farmer said the army had captured refugees each of the last two days this man tried it and failed his face hidden as he was still in fear of the smugglers muffy though it's like nothing exist here in total darkness you might be attacked by wild animals in the forest anything you can imagine could happen to you it makes you paranoid we weren't allowed to put any lights on we were following the smuggler we got to the river and

they pushed us into a dinghy. even in daytime the wide river valley is treacherous in the winter water is everywhere it wasn't difficult to find signs of life discarded belongings and supplies at night time navigating a path through all this even before getting to the much wider river would be terrifying we had already seen images from the greek side of those whose attempts to cross the course and their lives either from drowning or hypothermia and everywhere we drove up and down the river especially the places where greece feels close enough to touch the turkish security forces were there but virtually nobody else well that hill is greece the turkish military say that last year they caught a full fifty thousand people trying to cross the border in places like this as a thousand people a week and it's exactly the same as what the people traffickers told us given that this looks like one of the most important border crossings for refugees in the

middle east trying to get into the european union and yet because it's so bleak and so remote the same surpassed everybody by. the turkish security forces didn't reply to our requests to film with them but the state agency released these dramatic pictures of the soldiers at work defeating the darkness and capturing the group trying to escape the european union to likes to see this sort of thing we see is all through all the new frontline in europe's battle against the refugees or ensley al jazeera and the turkey greece border and something you can watch the second to lawrence lee's special reports on the refugee crisis he'll be reporting from the everest river in northern greece about accusations that greek police are using violence and intimidation to stop refugees from making the crossing. the flow of refugees and migrants to europe will be a key topic of discussion when african union leaders meet in ethiopia next week thousands continue to make dangerous journeys across the mediterranean despite
