don't trump speaking do you also tweeted a little bit earlier i'll paraphrase the crowd in front of the u.s. supreme court is tiny looks like about two hundred people fight use media tries to make it look big and it's not you were there tell us what it was like yeah all of the facts are that was there and it was well over two hundred people that's just a fact it was over a well over a thousand people were there that's just a simple fact in and and it was the vast majority if not all there were were anti cavanagh protesters now let me just step back one second here c'mon you heard those cheers at that rally in that clip you just played of donald trump there at this rally that's going on now in the state of kansas when he said kavanagh has been you know passed on to the supreme court he saw those cheers those are real and those were some of the biggest cheers we've heard at trump rallies in recent days if not weeks so it is clearly energized his base no doubt about that but in the same

sense trump is just factually incorrect when he says there were only two hundred anti cavanagh protesters out of the supreme court today again there were well over a thousand there maybe even a couple thousand there very angry as well angry because they feel the protesters we spoke to many of them throughout the day they feel that judge kavanagh is just not suited to the supreme court and that he was pushed through the process and especially women they just felt very very upset many women even crying thinking that this man accused of sexual sold accused of sexual soul more than thirty years ago could now be sitting on the supreme court which he does now. ok gabriel is on the thank you so much for that update from washington d.c. still ahead for you on al-jazeera cameroonians heading to the polls as the opposition parties scramble to mobilize votes against one of africa's longest serving leaders plus. i'm natasha popular in the french port of mass

most of this suburb of city is reduced to a vast wasteland of rubble and debris which is shrouded in the smell of decaying bodies when the earthquake struck the ground turned to mud and sank by several meters in a process called liquefaction hundreds of houses collapsed the search for the missing goes on but the government is considering calling off the operation that's unimaginable for people who want a chance to say goodbye to their missing family members. seven had another month i hope my sons are still alive even if i can't meet them again i want to see their faces for the last time even if they're dead i want to see them. mahmoud comes here each day and watches the search teams hoping for any sign of her children there was and again today the area they're searching here was the field at a preschool presumably people thought it would be a safe place to run to when the quake struck but the ground beneath them turned to

mud and swallowed them up so far they've pulled thirteen bodies out of here. those with the grim task of searching the deep mud say they don't want to give up either but sometimes it's overwhelming when. the most difficult thing when searching for bodies here is that there are sometimes you'll find a body but the area isn't clear enough to get it out it can be dangerous for us to some survivors such as this boy whose mother was killed come back searching for positions and memories of those they lost. the government says people who used to live here will be relocated at a memorial built to remember the disaster but survivors don't want their home to become a mass grave and want to eventually return. we're sons were born and raised here we have to build this see the again because we have to survive and we are strong it will help and i would as the day draws to a close some of the few bodies found are brought out for identification.

headlines here on al-jazeera inside story starts right now. sexual violence as a weapon of war this year's nobel peace prize winners are campaigners determined to prevent attacks will the prestigious award provide a much larger platform for survivors of sexual violence this is inside story.

hello and welcome to the program i'm a mage i'm joined from the me too movement to the distinguished nobel peace prize more light is being shed on the prevalence of sexual violence in war and peace the un has called gender based violence a global pandemic laura burden manly reports the fight against sexual violence is the weapon of war is being on it by the nobel committee joint peace prize winners were announced on friday in the region nobel committee has decided to award the nobel peace prize for twenty eighteen to dennis mcveigh yeah and. for their efforts to end the use of sexual violence as a weapon of war and conflict. dr mccuaig had treated thousands of victims of

rape in the democratic republic of congo and has repeatedly condemned governments for not doing enough to stop sexual abuse. now the mirage is an iraqi has eady who is attacked by isis fighters and have village north in iraq four years ago she's campaigned for justice ever some. rape in modern day conflict is being seen in many parts of the world. was added to the un's list in april i am a security forces accused of targeting the hindu women and girls. it's not a new phenomenon during the bosnian war more than twenty years ago some estimates put the number of women raped during the conflict at up to fifty thousand and during the nine hundred ninety four genocide in rwanda human rights watch said it may never know how many women were raped it's not just sexual violence in war that's making the headlines football superstar cristiana rinaldo is fighting

allegations that he assaulted a woman in two thousand and nine. bennett. christiane i rebelled i was doing well in regards to the things that are happening this is a guy i've known for three months what i can say is there in his fifteen year career he has demonstrated great professionalism on and off the football pitch sexual assault allegations are also dogging the nominees for the highest court in the u.s. and has divided america hollywood so-called enemy to movement is said to be a catalyst for empowering many women to tell of their abuses some offenders are being punished and the people who named them celebrated for inside story. all right let's go ahead introduce our panel in washington d.c. anthony gambino he is the executive director at dr dennis mccuaig is pansy

foundation in reykjavik by skype susannah sirkin she is the director of international policy at physicians for human rights which investigates and document human rights violations as well as gives voice to survivors and witnesses welcome to you both so let me start with you from your perspective what does it mean that dr denis mukwege and not the m word have been awarded the nobel peace prize this year well it's a phenomenal and wonderful validation of the extraordinary effort that these two very outspoken very courageous witnesses to what really has become or is thought to be an epidemic of sexual violence not only in their respective countries of iraq and the democratic republic of the congo but these two leaders are voices for the tens of thousands really millions of women and girls but also men and boys who are attacked in every continent.

by predators by the powerful by people who are essentially using bodies human bodies as vehicles to exploit territory communities destroy whole peoples or simply exert their authority and their voice from the prize is going to give them a new and expanded platform so that we can really address the problem more tony is this nobel peace prize going to give survivors of sexual violence a much larger platform now worldwide. that is certainly the hope of all of us and dr mccuaig dr macwhich has been working tirelessly to make sure that the voices of survivors are heard and as susanna said it's not just the congo it's not just iraq as your story said it's myanmar it's colombia it is

women going back to world war two who are still are alive the comfort women so-called from south korea there are women survivors who so much want to tell their story want to be heard and demand justice for the horrible things that have occurred to them in too many countries in too many places for much too long this is in a could you explain to our audience a bit more about the kind of trauma both psychological and physical that survivors of sexual violence go through. yes well certainly rape is a violent physical act and it causes acute and extensive potentially harm to the human body obviously there is physical trauma what dr mcwade he has treated and tens of thousands literally in his clinic and tens of thousands of women in the

congo are some of the extreme physical consequences of sexual violence when weapons are actually inserted into reproductive organs and women are mutilated and they have to have literally surgery for what's known as traumatic fistula there are victims who are exposed to sexually transmitted diseases of course pregnancy can result forced pregnancy as a result of these crimes and then there is and there are beatings that it's a violent act so women also have scars less rishon they can be tied up they can. be injured with knives and machetes and guns and then on top of that there is the extreme psychological trauma. that results in fear humiliation depression. victims can have nightmares and on top of that

there's a social stigma so many survivors that i've interacted with in the democratic republic of the congo and iraq and my colleagues in bangladesh with the rohingya survivors they are literally ostracized from their homes sometimes so the recovery involves. physical care mental health support social support it's really what the doctor mcluckie has developed as a holistic model and they need justice access to the courts being able to tell their story and see the perpetrators prosecuted. when proven convicted so that the impunity that surrounds these crimes does not continue many survivors in the d.r. see and i'll swear returned to their homes and villages where they were attacked only to have it happen again that is absolutely unacceptable all right let's take

a step back for a second the un special representative on sexual violence in conflict recently told the security council that sexual violence continues to be employed as a tactic of war a tactic of terrorism and a tool of political repression trafficking of women and girls for the purpose of sexual exploitation continued to be an integral part of the political economy of war and terrorism generating profits for armed groups and thousands of women and children remain imprisoned by armed groups such as eisel and boko haram so tony when it comes to boko haram specifically has the situation improved at all i mean there are so many girls who who are being helped that were kidnapped there are many that have been free but there are still many that have not been seen since they were kidnapped how is all that going. the issue in the book a harar crisis as well as elsewhere. is that when it has become contained in certain places it is then spread and so of course boko haram started in nigeria has spread to new

neighboring countries creating crises for other countries to try to respond and the sexual violence has been part of the as governments which sometimes have difficulty is responding to these issues in more remote areas try to do so they often. respond in a heavy handed manner that can create its own depredations so you have violence upon violence and this is something that. people working on the boat boko haram crisis have been trying to get a handle on but unfortunately it is still not been brought completely under control this is and i want to go back to something you touched upon a few moments ago in your answer because you you mentioned specifically the revenge of i've been reporting pretty extensively this past year from bangladesh on the plight of the revenge and i have on many occasions interviewed refugee women who have told me these absolutely terrifying these horrific stories of how they and

other members of their community were raped and brutalized of course in the last month you had this u.n. investigative panel that came out with their recommendations saying that they believe that members of unions millet i mean mars military should be charged with crimes of genocide do you think we're any closer to that actually happening to the international criminal court somehow stepping in and prosecuting members of me in mars military for this i wish i could say that we were this a curate a council has been completely paralyzed in terms of referring the situation of me and mar to the international criminal court as you know china not would not support that kind of referral as a essentially. protector of the me and my government and the united states itself under the trumpet ministration has vehemently criticised. of its this court and so in many directions there is not that likelihood what we have

instead is a possible referral through crimes in bangladesh to the criminal court because the genocide committed by the government of me and maher has extended into an across the border yes. tony from from your perch there in d.c. how much do you think the need to movement has as played an inspiration in the nobel committee awarding the peace prize this year to these are snippets well i certainly can't comment on all the things that influenced the nobel committee to make this great choice to the most deserving winners but it's clear that. the set of issues around continuing sexual violence ranging from sexual violence and conflicts which is what dr mccuaig and ponzi has

focused on to continuing sexual assault and sexual violence across various success sayat is really everywhere in the world is a problem that has been under reported underappreciated and where the response to often has been woefully bad so across the board whether it's a better response to the crisis of sexual violence and insecurity in the congo. to problems of sexual assault across also thought is of the world we really have to do a better job and it's our great hope that this prize given to these extraordinary people will refocus people on on this and tell us all that we just have to do a better job zanny you just heard tony talk about the fact that you know sexual violence is under reported in this day and age and and frankly you know many people in the world are surprised when they hear the kind of statistics that we are

talking about today just how prevalent still is rape as it is being used as a weapon of war well when you look at the situation in the d.r. see our neighboring such laugh in the public as well as we've just been discussing in in man maher with her hands are crisis this crime is vastly under-reported because these are. extremely difficult crimes to talk about very often the goal is to intimidate and silence the victims and there is not often in a vironment in which women and girls can safely report what has happened to them the. women and girls had a terrible time in the beginning overcoming the enormous obstacles in their society in their culture in their country to speak out and so the data that we have are really not complete and as we know from even what has happened in the united states

with the extraordinary outpouring of revelations day after day we see that even in societies where there is relative freedom and opportunity to speak out and to make a claim with the police women and girls have taken decades thirty forty years to speak out we just had a major american t.v. reporter a kani chunk describe a horrific rape by her own doctor that she had sat on quietly for more than thirty years so it's not surprising that people are shocked when they hear the extent of sexual violence both in peace time and in armed conflict because it's silenced and people are afraid and only when we start seeing prosecutions and women being given the platform the doctor and not even murat have spoken for so powerfully and have

brought to the fore are we going to start to turn the situation around where the perpetrator will be the focus of attention and the survivors will become the powerful. all right let's take a look at some sexual violence to to stakes a united nations children's fund report last year said that around fifteen million adolescent girls were forced to have sex worldwide unicef said only one percent of adolescent girls sought professional help and close to seventeen million adult women and thirty eight low and middle income countries reported being forced into sex during their childhoods tony these numbers are truly shocking and appalling what can be done by governments to combat this to try and put it into this well let's start with the most fundamental reality governments exist to protect their citizens that's what we organize ourselves in governments and when governments fail so badly to provide basic protection in in the congo we have seen

baby girls raped as young as eighteen months old and then a lag and bringing the perpetrators to justice when you have governments that are unwilling to respond to these kinds of horrors committed against their own citizens . then a much more vigorous international response is required so the things that the un. the things the u.n. are saying that you've been reporting on those are fine but the u.n. and others need to do more we have heard many many beautiful words spoken about the work done by dr mcquary an idea maraud and others we've seen much less action by the relevant governments and relevant international institutions to really effectively respond to this tragedy suzanna you were speaking more specifically about morag a few moments ago and i want to ask you when it comes to to her case

a woman who publicly discloses what happened to her and starts campaigning on behalf of other sexual assault victims how dangerous was that for her to come forward. from the beginning it was incredibly dangerous it was dangerous because she placed blame not only on the isis attackers but also called out to the iraqi government to protect the women who had been attacked and enslaved and sexually violated by saul but also because in her own community. women who are no longer virgins are not considered marriageable in the beginning they were ostracized and thanks to her voice and those of other u.c.d.

women there were religious edicts that were overturned and the top religious leaders of the gives the the community embraced and supported these women and girls so that they could return to the shelter of their families however there are now there are still three thousand yazidi women and girls who are missing many believed that some of them were killed some of them have been trafficked even outside of iraq they are calling on the government we are calling on the government to and the international community to find out what has happened to those women to rescue those who can be rescued and then of course to prosecute these crimes as crimes against humanity and in the case of the is it a truly a genocide and currently the iraqi government does not have either the laws or the capacity to prosecute the crimes against the busy and other minorities in iraq under their their laws a tony i want to ask you a similar question about dr mccuaig how dangerous has it been for him to be doing

the work that he is doing and to be speaking out the doctor is an amazing man for many many reasons. but. one of the most profound is his individual courage here is a man who almost exactly six years ago in october two thousand and twelve. survived an assassination attempt with a man who is very close to right next to him shot dead right next to him and dr mcwade miraculously survived. his children had been held as the assailants waited to make this attack. and it was of course terrifying doctor macwhich in left of the congo for a period of a few months and then. tells the most extraordinarily beautiful story. market women in the congo began to raise funds from selling vegetables small

sale small amounts of money as he says it women the women who just make a few dollars a day to try to raise funds to say we would like you to come back and when dr mcwade heard this he decided i have to return and so it great personal risk he went back exactly to the city where assassins had tried to kill him and he's there today continuing to do is work under great threat we constantly worry about him and his safety and it's extraordinarily important that people like him and as zen is saying is that we're discussing right now the survivors of sexual violence they be given all the possibilities to speak out to be protected to tell their stories and to obtain justice zana you have said in the past that underlying gender discrimination enable sexual violence to occur before

and after conflict and during peace time could you elaborate a bit on that. yes absolutely and actually following on tony's comments about dr craggy i have seen and heard in the democratic republic of the congo how dr mcwade he describes the ways in which women and girls in. his country are actually treated worse than animals in many cases and i've seen it. in the cave those myself where very often the culture is such that men are sitting in front of their homes or along the side street and women are walking on these terribly poor dirt roads with enormous burdens on their best carrying weights three four five times their body weight and they are sent into the fields often alone to farm to collect crops and that is when they are vulnerable to attack and they are also

vastly discriminated against in terms of their their basic activities and roles and rights and scientists and in that climate in that environment and this is not only in the d r c it's that's everywhere where the powerful men rule women can be treated any way all the way up to sexual violence rape and even mass rape in wars and until women again equality rights and to discriminatory policies and laws and practices we will continue to see these kinds of crimes tony we only have about a minute left will all this attention in your opinion ultimately help aid workers and rights groups who try to assist sexual violence survivors. yes but it's up to all of us to do the most we can to get this word out to work with survivors so they are heard so they are responded to and if we all work harder and take

advantage of this award this wonderful award of the nobel peace prize to these two amazing people then we will succeed in doing a better job against the scourge all right we're going to have to leave it there we run out of time thanks to both of our guests anthony gambino of the panzi foundation and susanna second with physicians for human rights and thank you too for watching you can see the program again any time by visiting our website al-jazeera dot com and for further discussion go to our facebook page that's facebook dot com forward slash a.j. inside story you can also join the conversation on twitter our handle is at a.j. inside story for me and the whole team here bye for now.

a very strong quote unquote response from turkey with regards to this front on their sovereignty essentially a crime taking place inside turkey by foreign nationals with what would seem to be impunity and and car would not want that to go away unchallenged obviously it is very challenging for the turks because they do enjoy strong diplomatic relationships with saudi arabia that is one of the reasons why turkish officials did not comment right away off to the disappearance of kushal ji what i understand from speaking to several of them that they were exhausting all diplomatic methods to try and find some sort of way out of this crisis but in light of or rather in the absence of any reciprocity or goodwill from riyadh it seems that they are going to disclose everything that also falls in line with information that al jazeera has that there will be within the next day or so or video material and other evidence

being disclosed by turkish security officials which will show how for the show the details of the assassination of the crime that has been committed so as far as obviously the case of this saudi journalists concern it is extremely sad news that he has been killed and aside from that there is obviously also a lot of concern with regards to the diplomatic fallout that's will undoubtedly ensue. in other news donald trump has spoken of his delight at the decision by the supreme court to confirm nominee brett kavanaugh to the top job cavanaugh has been sworn in after a contentious senate vote there were thirty hours of intense debate for and against the counter that it was subject to an f.b.i. investigation into sexual assault on additions kavanagh's appointments cements a five four conservative majority in the course. just a few hours ago the u.s. senate confirmed john. kavanagh.

ministers that coburg i think we all agree that what happened here was bag of knowledge it was a breach of trust and i just want to be clear that you're going to take early action in this film we go into companies with facebook's content moderation is to reveal how facebook decides what you can see that. it's good for you to refer to them so their birth program go to school. so. it's pretty says with billions of pieces of combs and it's uploaded every day these decisions how far reaching consequences. of the woods on you is not necessary. but how they're made has been shrouded in secrecy until now you shouldn't be speaking about record basis of topics ok if you're not just go on probation and docs not. from violence. to hate speech we reveal how facebook deals with extreme forms of. the info through through

and. through her other groups for schools with graphic videos routinely left on the sites she has to change it especially for the face of a selfless. and far right groups getting special protection. for over switchover in the revived facebook is facebook putting profits before safety if you start censoring triggers people lose interest in the growth it's all going to read one of the. saudis and even a facebook the premier hotels that are at the meeting not the whole company this

so all the which are give you the first call are going to see what you're going to do it was a call to what are. the fiscal policies. or these flaws we are. every week millions of pieces of content to reports it's a facebook by users who think they should be deleted. so these are some of the examples these though are the photos that we're going to defeat because these. people's ears are not tougher when you wanted to exclude the photos and there are a lot it's completely ok so in that case we're going to. unlike other media that there was little regulation restricting what can appear on the social network so the decision to delete or ignore is entirely up to facebook.
