dim the violence something she also refused to do here in hanoi there are of course . we simply too with hindsight might think that the situation could have been handled better but we believe that for the sake of long term stability and security we have to be fair to all sides that rule of law must apply to everybody we cannot choose and pick who should be protected by the rule of law and have to keep repeating because people are very few are interested in that aspect of the situation that in the rakhine there are many many small groups ethnic groups and religious groups and there don't just muslims and of a kind and seem to be a section of much of the world for example we are very small ethnic groups which are fast disappearing but nobody seems to be interested in them and yet they are the ones who could disappear altogether because some are now down to four fingers

she was also asked about the case of the two reuters journalists who last week were jailed for seven years true or so and while lone were arrested last year while investigating a massacre in rakhine state and there was growing international pressure on the son suchi and two governments to grant them pardons it's not a matter of lou they were not jailed because of adjournment they went to deal with jail because the court has well sentence have been awesome that because the court has decided that they had broken the official secrets act so if we believe in the rule of law they have every right to appeal the judgment and to point out why the gesture in this room if they consider it wrong me and my is expected to come under even more scrutiny at the united nations general assembly next week but on sun sujit will now not be attending. to has happened to sarah i'm just in a moment in london i'm going to show you both things by one of the world's greatest architects.

invading this village they stayed on the outskirts of the village an area where there are a few temporary structures that have been put up by activists in solidarity they declared that a military zone they prevented any access to anyone else as they demolished those structures and took them away and we spoke to the head of the commission for the wall and settlements a senior palestinian official he says that that is good news that so far at least. survives we hope that it will be a good sign or it will be satisfy them that they have succeeded to destroy the five houses but it was not our battles before defending their their houses are but that is to defend the houses of money and to after the enemy attack the area around it and that that we win out of the school doors around the houses. and that was our go in sand the house and take the houses and nothing happened here we are

now we thank god. and all the bible says. so for one more day at least the children here at the tire school in one hour have arrived for classes life goes on the reason that there's been so much pressure against this move by the israelis of course is about the villages themselves and their rights but it's also about fears of wider israeli plans for greater illegal settlement expansion we hear east of jerusalem where here in the middle of the occupied west bank there are fears that jerusalem is going to be ringed in the future that there could be a real attack on the territorial contiguity of a future palestinian state slicing that state into that is why the e.u. and others have talked about this in such terms as it being a real threat to the possibility of a two state solution in the future to syria now where nearly three million civilians in atlanta preparing for what's expected to be an all out military offensive against the province all and thirty thousand people have fled the last

rebel held enclave since syrian russian syrian government and russian as strikes intensified last week many have escaped to the nearby town of pursuit or an area controlled by turkish backed rebels those who remain in edge there but taking any measures they can to protect themselves including making their own gas masks. and it's not only that. we hear a lot of threats from the regime in russia saying they'll bomb us with chemical weapons that's why we had to make gas masks to protect our wives and children. and a little. bit of new to wiki i learned how to make the masks on you tube the mask is made with cardboard cups cotton guards natural coal and plastic bags to protect the face and eyes and you can breathe through it. has all the foreign minister is calling for a joint effort to eliminate what he calls extremist groups and lives and he says avoiding humanitarian catastrophe is vital we are watching the situation over there very cautiously it was the last one of the deescalation and we are knowledge that

there are extremist organizations who are operating from there are the words the way to eliminate them is really include operation with. with with turkey and with the with the other allies over there in order to make sure that the protection of the civilians we want to avoid another catastrophe to take place. and we see that. the same the same thing has been repeated elsewhere unfortunately because those which are being committed by the regime in the past years against their own people. a state funeral is being held for the former u.n. special general kofi annan and his home country ghana. passed away last month at the age of eighteen and the berries and a private ceremony a few hours from now. across from that awkward address is in the acro where that

funeral is being held so it's like quite a large affair there with plenty of dignitaries in attendance. absolutely laura lots of dignitaries presidents a diplomats from around the world including the current u.n. secretary general mr and tony were terrorists we have presidents heads of states prime ministers those who cannot come are sending delegations from across the world from europe from asia from africa itself and of course the reception here is that of the mood here is that if some member agree. in fact kofi annan is being celebrated more than being mourned here in ghana because of his numerous contributions to international diplomacy. of course uplift in the name of ghana to the rest of the world and he's by the way he's been some a break to the home for the wonderful things he's been doing and of course the

names name he's created for this country now all year when you come here from dignitaries from family members from other observers who are here pays a wonderful such a person is not to talk to me father about the passing of coffee and is the current special representative of the united nations general in west africa who has been our deployment for most of his life comedy so talk to us about the person of coffee and i know you are a gun in itself you are a diplomat and what can a person who says why are people celebrating coffee and today is state of war. but i think it's. because of his gentle nature his humility. kofi was somebody who even if you didn't know him before once you came into contact with him he had this column in effect and he.

took his personality into his job as the highest ranking diplomat the world's. number one as secretary general of the united nations this peace for ten of peace. kofi he projected into a rather turbulent world. been very effective and courageous in confronting many of the ills that afflict our well he's remembered for his numerous contributions in bringing peace to other parts of the world for example in kenya all across africa you have yet made some attempt as well but he's also remembered for the difficult times he faced one when he was. under secretary general in charge of peace committee and wonder genocide and how was it as a diplomat who walked closer with kofi annan how did he feel when his committee

failed to stop the one of the genocide in rwanda genocide was a failure of the world. community down the people of the one of what is significant is that while he was in the position of authority he took initiatives to ensure that such catastrophe would never be repeated as the reforms that were put into place by him in un peacekeeping but significantly in championing the principle of the right. to protect the rights of the international community to protect. victims and to. people and communities. expose to the extreme. torture.

all governmental authorities. are crimes against humanity so he will be remembered also for this corrective measures that he took and. which. regional organizations africa and in the global community to. aid of help. communities now thank you so much. our diplomats and again you're a civil servant. kofi annan is remembered also for his numerous contributions to peace building and peacekeeping and that's the reason why in two thousand and one at its centennial the nobel peace committee awarded him the nobel peace prize and he's also remembered here in africa in particular for standing up to the rights of victims of hiv aids to get access and he pushed that so hard that it sort of made

sierra leone west africa. in one thousand nine hundred eight in one thousand nine hundred nine nigerian peacekeepers murdered raped and tortured sierra leonean civilians. and got away with it. all. this footage of the nigerian peacekeepers i got up but it was filmed by a local cameraman sorious samura and broke cost around the world seventeen years

ago in a documentary called cry freetown. there was a silent majority sophie. the nigerians had been invited to protect civilians by the sierra leonean government which was embroiled in a brutal civil war against rebel militia. but instead of being protectors many became butchers. after the end of the conflict in two thousand and two a united nations funded tribunals established to prosecute serious crimes committed during the civil war. but the nigerian crimes were ignored brushed under the carpet of history. after eighteen years of silence a team of international lawyers is reopening the case.

file a story of saddam i believe this case representing victims that have suffered so much the case is being conducted by myself dr sharp a lot of getting drugs of malaysia out my brother to bring him. from sierra leone where do you take a separate photo to do something for the victims. that came in. in q. one has seen in the united nations allegations of abuse. cases today. those cases. video evidence.

even attempted to. weave. a case for to put in place investigations. we know there's a difference. the difference. is that a way. i have every confidence that. lummy mansour a he was five years old when the nigerian peacekeepers otherwise known as echo came to his area and you will see there everybody. in for all the kids from the community in moore. or my studio.

we don't leave me one and me to you my sister. will be dealing with my mind. soon one boy will be ninety minutes from. here can walk in and see the morning in. the garden. and him or me you will see this morning it's in the in. the morning early going to be then we wouldn't be on my sisters and. i'm not time of emotions more me mommy daddy and it was your. sister as. soon as she said no they said no to. me mommy you know. you skimped see going out on mom so we. all need to be

a commodity and she she gets you into all my system. oxidants know. and it's about single dads i live. among anymore anybody alive what was your mom got. on your system. you only saw one odds against the economy. in december one thousand nine hundred eight as the civil war raged in the provinces there were rumors of an imminent rebel attack on the nation's capital freetown. sorious samura was a local camera man living in the city for us we were living in the city we were just leaving in punkin in fear of the peacekeepers. the ones who were different in

that time. it was on the morning of those six don't general ari nine hundred ninety nine a friend of mine called on the phone and said the rebels are here i took the camera and from the window i started fim in the red arrows. i just thought what was happening in my country needed to be seen it needed to be framed so i made a decision to step out. those nine ten is what i feel what i saw what i witnessed and. nobody. sees it in their own people. the peacekeepers fills the block complete ok i think a lot of it is these is meant to be. disciplined peacekeeping

force. yeah i was now with the camera. beam. that madness i was too confused i was just. not. it will be all sixty near. me. if i'm. so dense and induce a bindi. we simply don't watch some people making will buy a. saw. cinema. for the nets and. it's more for mobile we're. seeing.

what's in them being it's only in. into name and now we see booting. almost in. a tele i saw was in a nursing home. i saw the soldiers are choosing the force to form between mon gars. mother r r r sol there are the gown does begin i mean that you get out of going up i don't got out. he was desperate we cry i have motorable please don't kill me. you know it was not but not you know without of course not. i

know you people would think in water you just turn and freedom but i had no choice no not not not not a mother. and. i just kept that short. people in c i'm. consumed with the me the theme i know what's up and what a fun. one do with people nothing. an employee does if he and even put these lives on. us. as we see. now boots and i'm not in ca. and if you mean the. people to me

so i thought the thing. it took this is. an upbeat and begun to miss if. we are foreseeing. straight away there were guys started by the will barrel and with the boys still kiki in deep took him into the wee peril. the boy begging for his back home and within minutes to be thrown here and a big must grieve a lot of family members will never ever. find out that some of their loved ones and it all yeah he's in the same source he paid a debt price at the hands of peacekeepers. the special called for sierra leone was established in two thousand and two to

prosecute those most responsible for serious crimes committed during the war. sharma hendra was one of the prosecutors at the court and he is now the driving force behind the renewed effort to seek justice a special court didn't have to stick. over nigerian troops we had video evidence. the whole world has seen what has happened. and it has been probably the easiest cases to prosecute and we did it there was just talking peace silence. and victims of economic crimes. eighteen years of combined eighteen years of inaction against these nigerian troops despite the most compelling evidence any prosecutor could possibly have that can't be tolerated. over sixteen seventeen years

i have the steps here to just lie there you know got three doors armed i kept you know thinkin wishin somebody should just. do something about this. when the call came form karim and shamila i was excited to find them this tapes are going to be useful these tapes are going to be used in a court of law to actually bring. some of these people to our county are in the us . we're collecting the evidence evaluating their lives and. what we can do to assist these youths and nobody has tried that unical who was who he did to these. those guys we are very inhuman. you treated me like a beast. gregg's now i don't know how.

to turn. them on on me own good. name. who is walking to school for a bath and they felt. they would spectators of justice. and instead of just skipping through little cracks of justice i think those cracks became a gaping hole. even if it's twenty years later we are reopening this issue. no i'm not i'm not going to i mean our own words have been be rid of a walking come and go or when the us needs shoot no question if i

am one else will when i'm the last one sworn in a scene i keep thinking in your mind it's akin. to say we mourn you even. for the only let me get beaten. up till now and it hits me that between them it's me. if you've been on the vine what up to now . it's an odd season it was my getting on the shelf he said it all meal in the woodward book i'm gonna see more sense. than a curiosity to. well i'll be defeated cyrano boob. i think because of luck i will use or they will commute my. next this. guy you can call tell him i knew us would write our cards on the last goodbye. about within one. hour she still had lived that long but i just.

it went on for hours. and only took a little maybe talk to see to cough just. suck. it if you insist. see speeds. suck. seeing that level of cornish meant being destroyed to your mother and can't you can't do anything that's any less more lucky . in my view what a sad. this was going to my mom let me off. listen i want to buy the content this is. so i see that we're looking to my mother in law school so more than just wish they said well your father said that i said and i'm. like. so and also got one

mark for me. i don't know. as a witness in the case sorry a s'more a trouble to the hague in october twenty seventh team to provide his testimony. in my preparation to come and talk to there. you know i took that journey again town and really and i mean this is some of the thinks. he owns. it's traumatic but. for me it's a few days but these people who saw their loved ones really been brutalized moderate front of their own eyes they're going to leave it for ever . even if we can register in the consciences of the powers that be

that something like this should move a whole bunch to. a story you don't mind even to start from the very visit where i'm at because she knew me i was aware read i said i'm setting up now with these guys and here work said he should be taken out. kill him was what i heard. you say you were most good this he didn't finish instead he walked away from the camera. that's. all owed him and you.

you you know. it well or because. i should have seemed somewhat disguise. i struggled i struggled with the piece i would beg him to for he for me perhaps. i hope you understand. because. he had one red t. shirt but no breeze no trousers us so they brought him rights to where the bullets

were he chain and you put him there you know good. as the way it was he screamed. before even touching me you know you could see that. there are something weird i have faced mets mornings in one thousand nine hundred six. i thought he had given up going into a fight i made some he said he found me in the guts that. he was outside with i meant that the ability. to was just like some desperate being i don't know what's going on around him we had no idea that it's because he can't talk. what was to come. when the poor boy. he went out for all the rules for these. at the family would not go out. when the echo mall we had very intensified in our area. these same

decided to get moses back on the back of that truck and these guys were paunchy on the sides you know we do those boots kicking his side when we'll fall slugging you know everyone rushes. to see how he was choked child this is a boy who. should be shot that type of punishment. but smaller boy. it's on forgivable. belief that the nigerian perpetrators will be directly targeted by the case has sustained sorious through his dealings with the legal team. but now he his the case is taking a different path. over the last twelve months we've gone through the videos of cyrus mora we've conducted investigations on the ground in nigeria up in

sierra leone. witnesses been spoken to statements of being taken and are now in a position to put for the nine claims i tried last year to file a case in nigeria and they wrote back and said well they only had jurisdiction on the territory of nigeria so we were confronted with a problem how to obtain redress we decided the first course of action that was compelling was the one that sought the sierra leone government to do what a state should do which is to protect the fundamental constitutional rights of its citizens and as one of the relief sought in that claim is for the state to start a proper accountability process because the state in charge of one force meant that they have international standing to make requests to to other states and so they are in a privileged position. this is going to be difficult for all of source i didn't

sign off going to be only a student. government initially what i agreed to work on the suit being got this case against in nigeria i mean i don't think. it is a syrian government shouldn't feel. you have to go for women and the soldiers. it is our hope that ignited this process that there be criminal investigations and criminal cases further down the line in relation to the perpetrators that appear on the videos that have been named in the statements but the important thing. money is after all these years to start with a claim before a court. in a case that we say well founded. maybe technically boy is. see that this is the best we tend to speak but for me. i don't think it's right to sue sam government or i personally don't believe that i would give evidence or

concerning government nigerian government niger and so just yes any time. as moyers are fundamental of my fundamental responsibility is to provide objective legal advice to the clients. and it is to try to obtain redress for those clients according to the law and will use every legal option in australia to put forward the best case for those victims the tree represent these uses very very often this is very easy for them that. i wasn't thinking i was going to be. tomorrow we are going to be filing. their cases for you before the supreme court and we are asking the supreme court to. give you the address in the last nineteen years you have been forgotten you are an example of what happened to

many many many people unfortunately we can't promise you we'll win this case but we're trying our best we've spoken to you we've investigate we have done a lot of work we pray that the law will protect and address what happened but it's a really worthwhile case so i'm really honored to be representing each and every one of. the legal case is now with the supremes court of sierra leone and the lawyers await its response the government of sierra leone must decide if it's going to fight the case or respond to demand for the day take on responsibility for establishing a process of accountability for crimes committed by nigerian peacekeepers almost two decades ago. we also the nigerian army to respond to the issues raised by this film we have not yet had

a reply. business updates. going places together.

business updates. going places together. coming up in the next sixty minutes a show of force in. china and russia.

and. was. was. the canadian hockey team who lost sixteen members in a bus crash make their emotional return the. russian president has inspected troops taking part in the largest war games since the fall of the soviet union to me a putin says the armed forces will continue to be strengthened but russia is a peace loving state which doesn't have aggressive plans three hundred thousand

troops are the week long training exercises in the far east of russia chinese troops have joined them for the first time in such a large scale operation rory chalons has more now from a lot of our stock. well there are two notable things about these drills the first is the sheer size of them they are large the biggest we are being told since one thousand nine hundred eighty one and involving three hundred thousand military personnel from the russian armed forces we are seeing over a thousand aircraft involved helicopters unmanned aerial vehicles that's drones basically up to thirty six thousand tanks and other armored personnel carriers and vehicles eighty ships and supply of vessels now there might be some exaggeration going on here previous military exercises that russia has conducted have not been quite as big in the final tally as we were told they were going to be beforehand

but still they're large and there is also this chinese components now the chinese imports is minimal compared to the russian the chinese have put in three thousand two hundred troops and thirty aircraft helicopters and planes plus a few tanks and other armored vehicles but it's the gesture that's important it's russia inviting china to show them essentially that russia does not view china as a threat or an adversary but it's also a sign to the west to nato to the united states that russia and china are getting closer together and might have push came to shove actually fight alongside each other now and has been watching over these exercises and he says they've gone pretty well so far he went on also to say that russia is a peace loving state we don't do not and cannot have aggressive plans now. that is of course trying to assure any international observers these are.

defensive drills rather than aggressive his statements i think might raise eyebrows in western capitals which have been watching russian behavior in ukraine over recent years its behavior in syria at the moment and also going that's. say two thousand and eight the invasion of georgia but that's is vladimir putin's view on things today. to syria now where nearly three million civilians in libya are preparing for what's expected to be an all out military offensive on the province more than thirty thousand people have fled the rebels' last stronghold in syria since government and russian airstrikes intensified last week many have escaped to the nearby town of basuto an area controlled by turkish backed rebels those who remain in it live but taking any measures they can to protect themselves including making their own gas masks and it's not only that dielman is almost we hear a lot of threats from the regime in russia saying they'll bomb us with chemical weapons that's why we had to make gas masks to protect our wives and children and

a little. bit of new to wiki i learned how to make the masks on you tube the mask is made with cardboard cups cotton guards natural coal and plastic bags to protect the face and eyes and you can breathe through it stay with us story the cattery foreign minister is calling for a joint effort to eliminate what he calls extremist groups in italy banned he says avoiding a humanitarian catastrophe is vital we are watching the situation over there very cautiously it was the last one of the deescalation and we are you know obvious that there are extremist organizations who are operating from there in the words the way to eliminate them is they really could have racial with. with that with turkey and with the with the other allies over there in order to make sure that the protection of this event is we want to avoid another catastrophe to take place. and we see that. the same the same thing has been repeated elsewhere unfortunately of the

crimes which have been committed by the g.m. in the past years against their own people. i was really forces in the occupied west bank of cleared a camp for activists beside the bed when believe which is due to be demolished israel's top court approved the destruction of the village of qana last week it's expected the land will be used for legal settler homes. commanders of the. coalition war in yemen say they continue to control a main supply route to the important port of a data to the fighters under playing the report saying they've repelled government forces and stopped their progress kilos sixteen as it's known as one of the main hoofy supply routes linking the data to the rebel held capital the u.n. envoy to yemen is set to visit san are to revive talks hopefully to stop the fighting and to simmons has been following the story from japan with the latest. there's certainly no letup in reports that the saudi u.s.

led coalition and government forces on the ground have cut off one major supply line between the port city of data and the. rebel held capital sana'a now the implications of this are huge because there's already a major humanitarian catastrophe going on in yemen this will just add to it on a grand scale warnings from all quarters that this was the last thing needed in the run up to attempt to try to get some sort of dialogue going only dialogue not certainly a peace deal at this stage and. it's possible and then on from there to riyadh but the timing of this is really difficult for him he had said that he had tried to get to the table he seemed

sympathetic in some parts of his announcement last saturday towards the hooter's in terms of what their difficulties were but no one knows really what the true motivations of either side is in terms of gains or losses it would seem now that the coalition is determined to make a major leap forward as they see it in this conflict and a leap backwards for the human beings involved. the european parliament. the twenty fifth anniversary of the all slow accords between israelis and
