recapping our top stories for you so far today syrian military sources have told state media that missiles which of hit one of the country's major fuels were launched from israel state t.v. says several people were killed at the t four base in homs province the display comes hours after president trump warned of consequences for a suspected chemical attack on the rebel held east of the. rebel fighters have begun leaving the syrian turnip duma as part of the russian brokered evacuation do you use our state t.v. pictures of some of the boss who's buses rather crossing into a government controlled area on their way to opposition held areas in the north of the country. one of the story the younger in prime minister viktor orban asked victory in parliamentary elections with all of the votes counted as one third successive term with possibly of the two thirds of majority this gives him enough

against that of course our reporters have seen on the ground from the side from the gaza side that essentially these protests are peaceful but the challenge for israel is that if it excepts the majority of peace people are protesting peacefully then there has to acknowledge the demands those protesters are making the demands for a relaxation of the blockade over gaza a chance to allow exports from gaza a chance to allow people to travel more freely and expand fishing zones these are what people want to try and make life in gaza more bearable fishermen in the u.k. have rallied against a transition deal struck between london and the e.u. over brics it some fifty boats fired off flares and fireworks as part of a nationwide protest during the referendum campaign the brics a ts have promised to take back control do you pay walters on march the twenty ninth of next year that's the day the u.k. will formally leave the e.u. however the government later renegotiated the transitional period that means that

labor one held the next day. said that that was unsustainable it showed that the government at the time was on track to lose the next election will now malcolm turnbull has failed his own test he has reached that milestone thirty times in a row opinion polls have shown that he and his government are on track to lose the one thing though that prevents a leadership challenge is that there is no clear successor to malcolm turnbull no one those in his party can agree who should take over from him and also at the same opinion polls show that the australian public does not want another new prime minister there were four changes of prime minister in the five years to twenty fifteen the australian public has had enough of that so for now malcolm turnbull looks like. the nigerian army says it's rescued one hundred forty nine women and children from the group because the hostages were in the village of the medic kuta in the northeastern state of borno the not part of the group of schoolgirls
