his leadership in line. on it when the story is strong. history of the revolution on al-jazeera. elation in thailand as a group of missing teens are found alive deep underground rescuing them will take time. have them speak of this is al jazeera live from davos also coming up jordan's foreign minister is headed to moscow for talks on the worsening humanitarian situation in southern syria. promises of help for refugees in desperate need after a high powered visit. a compromise saved german chancellor angela merkel's government

but the agreement remains fragile. hello they've been found alive and well but now the focus turns to getting them out and all the indications are that could take some time the twelve boys and their coach of a ta youth football team will be supplied with food until then the boys were found late monday by british divers after being trapped for nine days the time military says it's now looking at the tricky task of freeing them from the flooded underground system scott hyla has the latest now on the rescue operation in chiang rai. they became known as the missing thirteen here in thailand but they're not missing any more but their ordeal is not over the boys and their coats were discovered at nine fifteen pm local time here but they are still in there it's going to be a very difficult process to get them out officials here are trying to hatch

a plan the best plan to get them out safely medical technicians are in with them and i will be throughout the day throughout the hours making sure that they're in good health so far it sounds like there's no major health issue for now obviously the very hungry they're being fed supplies have been brought in but it's going to be very difficult to take them out that is because that water level is still very high now it's stopped raining but there's still a lot of water in there and the pumping is still going on so that's the biggest issue is the water level because even though it's not raining here the hills around here drain into that system that we've been speaking with family members who have been here for this entire ordeal ten days they say that officials are telling them that they're going to try to move family members to chiang rai city prevents the capital here to the hospital there that's where they will take the boys when they come out and bring them to that hospital we're hearing that they'll probably be taken out from the stairway here and then they'll be put into anyone's is taken to a how a pad it makes it how it had nearby been helicoptered over to chiang rai city now

it's about an hour drive obviously a lot less time by helicopter but right now the family there are very happy but they're very concerned now just how quickly these boys and come out and right now we're not getting any indication really of how long that's going to take. the foreign minister is heading to moscow as a humanitarian crisis builds on the border with syria about two hundred seventy thousand syrians have been forced from their homes by the russian backed government offensive to recapture the dead out of province from rebels neither jordan always letting them in activists in did say government forces have send reinforcements to the front lines around the town of tough yes more now from santa honda in beirut. jordan has been facilitating and mediating talks between the russian military and rebel factions in their off province but those talks have collapsed the opposition saying they're not ready to sit at the negotiating table because the conditions that are being put the by the russian military are just unacceptable in their words

it's humiliating for them to accept us now the jordanian foreign minister will be heading to moscow for talks with his russian counterpart on wednesday to try to achieve a cease fire and the jordanian foreign minister saying that we need to find some sort of a settlement that will allow the displaced people to return to their homes and allow these people to feel safe and safe is the key word because at the end of the day what the opposition is demanding is not to be forcibly displaced like we've seen in other military operations like an eastern and in aleppo they want to be able to stay in their homes but they want some sort of security guarantees because they have a little trust in the syrian government as well as the syrian government's allies so they're asking for some sort of a guarantor of maybe jordan for example but this is unlikely to be accepted by the syrian government camp which in their words they want to restore sovereignty their sovereignty over the whole of syria and the syrian government has the upper hand on the ground they have retaken sixty percent of that off province two hundred seventy

thousand people according to the united nations have been uprooted from their homes government troops reinforcing their positions in front lines which really is a message that we are going to continue with this military operation if the rebels choose not to surrender so the opposition in a very difficult situation jordan now stepping in again to try to see if they can find some sort of a settlement that will be acceptable to all sides that will prevent further bloodshed and devastation. a three year old refugee girl has died from injuries she sustained during a mass stabbing in the u.s. state of ohio tim a killer is facing murder charges for attacking children at a birthday party police say the girl killed was the youngest of six children stabbed three adults were also injured trying to protect the killer had recently lived in the same housing complex which is home to many refugee families the libyan navy says sixty three refugees and migrants are missing feared drowned in the

mediterranean sea that's after their inflatable boat sank the navy rescued another forty one of the libyan red crescent recovered another seventeen bodies on a beach in tripoli on monday night there thought to be among the one hundred three including three babies who drowned in a similar incident on friday. germany's chancellor has managed to save her governing coalition after reaching a compromise on migration angela merkel agreed to build border camps for asylum seekers and to tighten the border with austria but within hours austria responded by saying it will tighten its southern border rather than risk having migrants rejected by germany stranded on its soil donna cane joins me now with more on this from berlin so dominic did the c.d.u. and the c.s.u. agreed that this policy a germany but it's not going to be carried out yet what happens next. well the problem here has and is that in savings are you saying in saving the coalition

government what she's saved so far is the coalition that she has her party has with her bavarian conservative allies but it's not clear yet whether the grand coalition involves the social democrats remember a center left party where the vein they agree as well with these policies and deeds the leader of the party delegation in parliament and the nonnes has said that she really does not want to see these centers for asylum seekers whether they're detained there or not doesn't want them to be built she's prepared to to talk about the other elements of the negotiation of the solution that that merkel and civil from the c.s.u. arrived at yesterday but this idea of transit centers whatever result of g.'s used to describe them the s.p. day that the social democrats seem to be opposed to that they're meeting later on today and at around sixteen g.m.t. and it will be very interesting to see quite what they make of this plan given the fact that they appear to be ruling out the idea of transit centers and what effect

is this is this rao having on on chancellor angela merkel because this would appear to be something of a u. turn. yes very much so this is the lady who has basically govern this country for the best part of thirteen years who is seen as being a model of economic economic competence for the entire continent with the greek debt crisis but this migration crisis really is defining her three years ago she cloaked herself in humanitarianism opening the borders saying that germany could handle it now total reversal she has gone back on that now building centers or at least gearing to agree to build centers where people can be detained and kept there pending being sent back to other countries big change around for her the irony of this is that although that policy is is popular she remains one of the most popular politicians in germany even though she is as i say moving very far away

from the policies that she put herself with three years ago dominic cain live for us there in berlin thanks only now the u.n. secretary general is calling on the international community to provide more support for the ranger antonio good cherish was visiting a camp in bangladesh where more than a million rangers have fled violence in myanmar on friday the world bank and now stuff five hundred million dollars grant to help bangladesh with the refugees basic needs but conditions remain poor and good carriage said countries need to offer more financial assistance mohammed jim jim joins us live now from cox's bazar in bangladesh so mohamad what is the latest that you could tell us there on the situation and the efforts to provide desperately needed aid to people in. how is it you know since we've been here aid workers have been describing what's

going on in cox's bizarre as an emergency with in an emergency now let me try to break that down for you why they're saying that of course you have this crisis that has continued you have close to a million road humans are refugees here in cox's bazaar many of them in the critical long camp where we are right now but also right now it's monsoon season that means that on these steep hillsides that don't have education and where most of the are going to have their bamboo huts it's very krohn to natural disasters the flooding from landslides that's why everybody is trying to get the international community to step up to do more to support the roe him in their plight now i want to bring in our very special guest right now this of course is the united nations high commissioner for refugees thank you so much for being with us sir i want to ask you first about the fact that the world bank of course has announced that they are going to contribute close to a billion dollars half a billion dollars to the real hinge a refugee to the government of bangladesh to help with the remains

a refugee population that it's not nearly enough considering all that's going on here and the immensity of this crisis right there very important package because it will allow all of us to go beyond this emergency phase and look at education big need for the people here look at hand look at the infrastructure also for the local community they are tremendously impacted one million people in a small difficult land but meanwhile because this is going to take some time we desperately need too many tarion climates to teach people to give them water to reinforce the shelter in this monsoon season we have an appeal of about one hundred million dollars issued in january while sympathy for these refugees twenty five percent from this has to change a high commissioner on the i mean i've covered displacement crises refugee crises for over. a decade now the scale the immensity of the crisis here it's almost too

much to fathom it's the trauma that you talk about that you see here that this population has experienced it's just almost unfathomable what do you tell the refugees that you've been speaking with when they're asking for help and when they're sharing the stories about the atrocities that were committed against them in their family members i think you you you hit the nail on the head what impresses here the two things that impress you was that the width of the camps the huge population in this small area and then of the trauma i came here last time in september just after they had just the right the last group of seven hundred thousand and i found it in the heat of trauma people wouldn't speak children would nice my women with recount the most horrifying stories of rape and violence i must say that people are more confident now nine ten months of relative stability people are telling us at least you know we can sleep have given them

a bit more confidence that he's no less chilling that the stories that now we hear even more details are still very very frightening so is the viewers which means two things one is that we really need to. address it's just for all my with psychosocial interventions into that we need to address the root causes of these big through and find some emotions back in their homes that have to be. fundamental for these people to go back sort of with so many concurrent refugee crises in this they can crises going on around the world right now what other concrete steps can be taken here in cox is bizarre for this population what other initiatives are there u.n.h.c.r. is working right now to try to help this population we are in an emergency phase because the monsoon is on us literally it's been raining and in a few minutes ago heavy rains and these people are almost out in open wheel. the shelters so we need to help them through this season in particular but we need to

think about the medium term ice i spoke about the solution this is key what do they need to go back you know all of them when we asked them yes but they said we need our rights to be respected freedom of movement access to services and jobs and above all citizenship these people have been deprived of citizenship if that is restored then we are talking to the government of myanmar and we even have a memorandum of understanding that stipulates these rights that these restore then they raise the chance that we can give them some hope for recovery otherwise these people won't simply go back and we will have to have them here for a long time and we have to support bangladesh for a long time this memorandum of understanding is going to bit of a contentious issue here the past few days because a lot of the refugees that we've been speaking with they're concerned because they saw a leaked version of that memorandum they didn't see that they were identified as the hinge of the document and also didn't address the citizenship issues i mean when they've expressed those concerns to you what have you told them the citizenship

issue is actually a practice makes reference to the recommendation of former u.n. secretary general kofi annan that led a commission a year ago that made recommendations on how to restore what we call a pathway to citizenship so i think that's address as our other right people are very worried and i think really understand after what they've gone through they're worried that they're going to be forced back home and i want to really take this opportunity also to say this is not the purpose of this document the purpose is to help recreate or create those conditions for them to return you know a manner which is not only stunning and dignified but absolutely voluntary and i'm glad that the government of bangladesh is generous wholes generous whole still do it's a poor country with a generous hold of this population he's also talking about only voluntary returns are granted i know that you have. believe so we really appreciate the time thank you for joining us here today thank you very much thanks very much appreciate it

thank you so housing you heard it there that's united nations high commissioner for refugees legal ground day and he was telling us about the dire circumstances that there were hinge of population thinks this of course is the world's largest refugee camp and while the the number of or his or refugees that are fleeing myanmar has certainly tapered off in the past several months there are still people arriving every day this is a deeply deeply traumatized populations that have experienced the kind of atrocities that it's very hard for anybody to get their mind around even when you speak to them face to face to try to understand what they've been through the brutality that they have faced and even with relatives that were killed or children that have been killed women that have been raped this is extremely extremely dire extreme pain and it's trauma on a scale that as i said the port is really almost unfathomable wasn't mohammed gem jim life first there in the caucasus preserve. still ahead on al-jazeera we look at how egypt has changed in five years since the overthrow of its first democratically

elected president. still has a. hello there we're seeing plenty of sunshine across many parts of europe but we are also seeing a few areas where there's more in the way of unsettled weather the first one is here over the western powers that's giving us a fair few showers we've seen some very heavy downpours gusty winds and some hail over parts of france and stretching across the alps as well and then we've got this is larry of low pressure up towards the northeast this is making things rather gray for some of us and rather wet and windy and with the gray weather we're also seeing a decrease in the temperatures say for moscow twenty degrees will probably be our maximum on tuesday but if that system works its way across us for wednesday that we more wet windy weather on our temperatures will be dropping down to eighteen

meanwhile for the west generally fine and settled for many of us and still very hot but these thunderstorms are still going to be breaking out at times so in between the sunshine do expect to hear the old rumble of thunder now for the other side of the mediterranean you just make out a few little speckles of cloud here then i'll really bring us any significant rain at all but what they are doing is dragging down the temperature that it'll be so twenty three the maximum batten around twenty eight for us in out geas but where we're not seeing that cloud is certainly a lot higher now so chin is all the way up at thirty nine degrees a very sticky day for us as we head into what. so whether it's sponsored by cattle as always. in an exclusive documentary series al-jazeera reveals the full story of a world that changed the face of the middle east this is not a poor to defeat this is a war to open the way for the promise of the final episode of a three part series explores the impending threat to global superpowers i don't

hundred seventy thousand syrians have been forced from their homes by the russian backed government offensive to recapture province from rebels. germany's chancellor has managed to save her governing coalition after reaching a compromise on migration angela merkel agreed to build border camps for asylum seekers and to tighten the border with austria in a political deal. it's been five years since egypt's first democratically elected president mohamed morsi was overthrown in a military coup the muslim brotherhood leader had been in office just a year when army chief general abdul fatah has sisi seized power. looks at what's happened since then. up to the was minister of defense and commander in chief of egypt's armed forces when he led the military coup on july the third two thousand and thirteen. that overthrew egypt's first democratically elected government

and. after months of protests demanding the newly elected president mohamed morsi step down sisi said the coup was necessary to prevent slipping into a dark tunnel of civil unrest. sisi dissolved the two thousand and twelve egyptian constitution set up an interim government and cold for new elections. human rights groups say the coup represented the end of democracy in the important middle east ally for the u.s. and other countries. the subsequent crackdown on morsi party the muslim brotherhood and its supporters was widespread and brutal. security forces raided camps set up by morsy supporters in the capital on the fourteenth two thousand and thirteen. at least eight hundred people were killed in cairo and around four thousand injured cc's opponents. thousands of muslim brotherhood members

and supporters were arrested the government offensive on opposition groups and the media has widened in the years since that day over more. sisi was first elected president in two thousand and fourteen. democracy international one of the main international observer groups monitoring voting said egypt's repressive political environment had made a genuine democratic presidential election possible sisi inherited a troubled economy apparently needing aggressive reforms alist say things have improved since but egyptians have suffered the withdrawal of certain price subsidies and the devaluation of the egyptian pound against the us dollar workers also began on several major construction projects including dredging a new channel of the sue is canal and the building of several new desert cities including a forty five billion dollar administrative capital east of cairo the battle against

the next three days today the port is the main entry for aid needed by millions of yemenis on sunday the united arab emirates said it halted its military campaign to give the un's diplomatic efforts a chance but who the rebels say the saudi and the rotty coalition has launched ten air strikes and ground attacks in the last twenty four hours the israeli government has been given the go ahead to deduct three hundred million dollars a year from the budget of the palestinian authority israeli m.p.'s pass a law allowing the money to be taken from taxes and terrorists the israeli government collects on the authorities behalf israeli m.p.'s accuse the authority of paying three hundred fifty million dollars last year to palestinian prisoners jailed for attacking israeli security forces and their families are a force that has more from ramallah. well the reaction to this vote in the israeli knesset the passage of this bill in the israeli parliament has been surprisingly

swift and condemnatory here in the occupied west bank the head of palestinian prisoners affairs has said that this is piracy and theft of money which should rightfully belong to the palestinian authority in terms of taxes that are due to it and that are collected by the israeli government and then passed on to the palestinian authority they say that there is no legitimacy in the way that the israelis are now planning to withhold a large portion of that money he also says that this is an attempt politically to did legitimize the struggle against israeli occupation by turning people who should be seen as victims of an occupation as terrorists the bill was passed in the knesset by a margin of eighty seven to fifteen the only people voting against belonging to the left wing meretz party and members of palestinian israeli parties the israeli case for this bill has always been that such payments amount to incitement to attacks on israelis and on the israeli military the fact that people get larger stipends

depending on the length of the sentences and that those who were killed in attacks on israelis and on the israeli military or their families get payments the israeli government says means that an encouragement to such action the israeli defense minister said that that festival as he called it was over and that every shekel would now be automatically deducted what happens is that the israeli government collects on behalf of the palestinian authority up to about one hundred fifty million dollars a month in terms of duties that are owed to it this would be withholding about three hundred million dollars a month according to the israeli government that amounts to about seven percent of the entire palestinian authority budget so it is a sizable chunk of that budget it's not entirely debility. but it is a large move against what the palestinian authority says is money that is owed to it and it is vital to maintain social welfare not least of the six and

a half thousand people who are imprisoned in israeli jails and their families. i remember the first time i walked into the newsroom and it felt like being in the general assembly of the united nations has the so many nationalities. that we all come from different places but it. gives us the ability to identify the people the other side of the world but we can understand what it's like to have a different perspective and i think that is a strength for al-jazeera. she's one of the oldest women living in this part of mccurdy in the jury essential being with state i mean a garber is her real name and she's hailed as

a savior by the other women she sent in by in the local language which means a traditional bridging assistant or a midwife i mean that has been delivering babies in her village for more than fifty years. and notice you could be made. not going to was a well to come to me they're poor they need help sometimes they come with nothing i can't refuse them so i take care that even when they come they me. but the challenges faced by him enough can be extreme this is what's left of her clinic she says a group of men set it on fire a couple of months ago and she can't afford to rebuild it and. it is devastating not only for her but for those women who rely on her.

news is happening faster than ever before from different places from different people and you need to be part of back you need to be able to reach people wherever they are and that means being of course social media platforms this is where our audience lives as well as in front of a t.v. they're on the smartphone they're on the tablet they're on the phone. and that's the way al-jazeera is of all due to a true media network. the and.
