faso the country's capital is home to a base for the french special forces deployed in this hell to fight rebel groups clashes and frequent attacks have led to tens of thousands of people fleeing the area fighters regularly attack police outpost in the north of the country last year an al qaeda affiliated group attacked a turkish restaurant in walker dugu killing nineteen people in two thousand and sixteen thirty people died in other attack on a hotel in a restaurant in the city but this is the most brazen attack so far. these three locations are some of the most safest in security in this country many people here say if they're able to attack these places then no one is safe with the death toll likely to rise for key to fall so is again in warning fearing what could come next . hour let's go live now to. the capital in nicholas i can

remember being a sleepy salient capital most famous for its film festival times have changed. times have changed martine this has been a place where there's been repeated it's has especially in the last few years since . the former strongman you know foster who was in power for twenty seven years less power since he's less power didn't really even if he wins of attack on the soft targets in the capital in wagadu hotels and restaurants targeting foreigners but also ordinary people for you know but also martine things that don't make the headline news are the attacks that are happening in the north of the country police outposts of military outposts hold i've been targeted we see it well the french and different you know big government suspect that the people behind those attacks are the rebel groups that are operating currently in the south are seen and and this

underlines isn't it the increasing international concern there is full this armed group activity in this region. that's right and these targets that we've seen today this brazen attack that we've seen on friday is no coincidence first we're talking about the french embassy the french institute friends being the former colonial power france who has a big special forces base here where soldiers are deployed to fight in this somehow region not just in britain out faster but in mali in new share in other areas and also the forces that the military headquarters that was targeted as well the forces from hooking up on so they are also engaging with rebel forces in this and later on this month at the end of the month of march at the initiation of the french president him and michael. that the armed forces is five countries in this and how

we're talking about mauritania malines air chatting for you know so as well as france have joined forces to try to preach rule that region to try to stem out these attacks but fourteen in the last fifteen days there's been just an intensification of attacks not just in britain you know fast so in the last few months we've seen u.s. soldiers being attacked in these air we've seen french and u.n. soldiers killed in northern mali so there's really been a push a targeted push from insurgent groups it seems from fighters from this help to target security forces on the ground here marty and here you know what this effect has this ripple effect on the population is people here are scared they're calling for their governments to take more action to try to stem out. this sense of insecurity and some people i spoke to here this morning were were again saying that

if these people can target what is supposed to be the safest and most secure places in the capital then no one is safe in this area now and later on today. the prime minister will will visit the hospital and will visit the site where the attack took place but there will be an investigation to find out how this brazen attack took place martin thank you very much indeed nicholas out there reporting live from the backing of the capital. at the u.n. human rights she says airstrikes on the besieged syrian klav of probably amount to war crimes and those responsible should be prosecuted and they study three civilians were killed as government forces retook more ground from rebel forces on friday was on a binge of a triple from neighboring turkey. makeshift clinics in eastern who to have been filling up the wounded most of the civilian casualties are women and children that are waiting for the civilians to receive so we can preserve their lives we are

against humanity to civilians are being pounded into submission or death the perpetrators of these crimes must know that they are being identified. but dos years are being built up with a view to the prosecution and that they will be home accountable for what they have done day five of the five hour pause in fighting with no different from previous days with more air strikes and shelling close to seven hundred people have been killed in the relentless bombardment the choices for nearly four hundred thousand people are to starve surrender or die. in addition to the attacks on residential areas rebel positions on the front lines are also under heavy bombardment usual islam and fail after ramadan fighters have been holding meetings with families to assure them they are not going to retreat we asked the doctor in eastern huta about the potential crimes against humanity remarks and he replied with a question has the world drawn another red line and said never again he asked
