business updates brought to you by qatar airways going places together. kerry this is the news hour live from doha coming up in the next sixty minutes determined to hold saudi arabia accountable u.s. senators move forward with plans to end support for the war in yemen. another vote in sri lanka takes aim at the controversially appointed prime minister highlighting

the divisions that have led to a political crisis. and talks to find a solution for the war in syria and with no progress the u.n. is calling it a missed opportunity. with the sports including checkmate to twelve drawn games in a series of tie break his magnus carlsen finally retains his chess crown. the . u.s. senators have voted to debate a bill seeking to withdraw american support for the saudi coalition in the war in yemen define president donald trump bipartisan vote ignored warnings from the secretaries of state and defense that it would be a mistake and damage u.s. saudi relations senators are also calling for more transparency on what the intelligence community knows about the murder of saudi journalist. mike hanna reports from washington d.c.

. the yeas are sixty three the nays are thirty seven this was the senate and good fourteen republican senators joined all forty nine democrats in recommending that the bullshit be discussed on the senate floor in all probability a debate that will happen next week it's a direct repudiation of the white house which it sent both the secretary of state and the secretary of defense to persuade senators to vote against the proposal united states should not be supporting a catastrophic war led by a despotic regime with a dangerous and irresponsible military policy senators furious to a reports that the white house had instructed the cia director not to attend the classified briefing this despite repeated demands that gina has pulled brief the senate on the khashoggi killing and the level of involvement of the saudi crown prince mohammed bin solomon as to whether the crown prince was involved in this

killing it's my belief that he was it's my belief that he ordered it i don't have a smoking gun. but what i do know is that he is responsible for this agency that carried out the killing he has done nothing to show ownership of what has happened the emotion table is agreed to back in march a similar proposal failed to move to the floor for debate fifty five senators voting against the massive turnaround reflected in the latest vote a clear indication of how the murder of joe balkan shoji has galvanized the senate to reexamine the u.s. relationship with saudi arabia the legislation would end u.s. involvement in yemen but even if it is passed in the senate there is little chance it will go to a house that's under republican control and it's only likely to clear congress and be sent to the white house after the new house of representatives with a democratic majority convenes at the beginning of next year and the president's

office has been quick to make clear in a formal statement that any such legislation would face a veto this in turn could only be overwritten by a two thirds majority in both house and senate which nevertheless in what is now likely to be a protracted war between president trump and congress this vote is just the first salvo mike hanna al-jazeera washington. the u.s. has spent her biding logistical and intelligence support to the saudi morality coalition in the war in yemen since two thousand and fifteen began under president barack obama and it's meant to help stabilize the region and counteract iranian actions and the rebels fighting the coalition are backed by tehran until recently much of the u.s. assistance was in the form of in-flight refueling for saudi jets bombing yemen that has been halted in recent weeks and the wake of the outrage around the murder of jamal khashoggi the u.s. still cooperate on intelligence for the coalition and is the top arms supplier to saudi arabia and the u.a.e.

and it says its officers advise the coalition on potential targets to minimize civilian casualties united states aid chief has arrived in yemen's and yemen's capital saana rather to view the humanitarian crisis caused by the war i mean the un chief that is mark lowcock says the suffering is concerning and has once again called on the war in parties to end the fighting. i'm very concerned about the humanitarian situation which has deteriorated since i was here last and as i've said repeatedly to the security council there are five things i would like to happen to improve the situation and to reduce the suffering of the people first i'd like to see a sation of full still a t's especially around the key aid infrastructure especially around who data secondly i'd like to see the environment in which the aid system operates made easier there will be a date and seems keep the pool so you can keep the road so provide access to will be key facilities are because he's an associate professor at lancaster university

in the editor of the book the truck presidency journalism and democracy he joins us on skype from lancaster in the u.k. we appreciate your time why does it why does the top ministration want to stay involved in this war. well you know it's it's interesting that this hasn't really hit a lot of the mainstream press and the united states since after the midterm elections not wanting to rile donald trump and his his supporters democrats really is quiet but this is about money for donald trump and he doesn't want to talk about this is about maybe not money for his pocket but certainly money that would go into the u.s. economy strengthen the u.s. military empire certainly in the way of private businesses making arms for global trade and so he wants to keep this off the radar but with democrats taking control soon in the senate in a certainly those midterm elections being over this also showing some fracturing on

capitol hill in terms of trying to hold donald trump to traditional ways of doing politics which is to be transparent and to cooperate with congress in the military actions that we have in the globe so it's not even just that the control of congress will be shifting to democrats there are republicans that are also pushing back against this as well will that make a difference. yeah that's right so the republicans kind of ranking breaking ranks here is showing some of that fragmentation that has come from strain i think the last two years certainly they're not but but the interesting thing here is beyond the base bipartisan support nobody's coming to end the arms deals nobody's colleagues you and the actual manufacture have us weapons that are being used in this way and nobody seems to call for interest into the journalist murdered before

this downturn has said that he won't listen to the audio in more participate in one hundred levels of the investigation and understanding what's going on and some of this republican partnership with democrats could be showing a bit of the what that tension has meant on the republican side you know donald trump has it's always been and nor may he really be a true republican and so the republicans are are using this as an opportunity to try to speak back to donald trump to say look we are watching there is oversight don't make us look too small or you just take in spotlight the whole time trying to ministration has said that that one of the reasons that they should not pull out of supporting this colette is because it will make things worse i don't know how much worse it can get is that credible to you. yeah you know i mean that's a scapegoat i mean that's just you know that's the kind of line you know huge donald trump and administration use that same sort of rhetoric when they want to

deny climate change by saying no report is good enough we need data driven evidence even though there's been data driven evidence for twenty thirty years on climate change at least so it's fits within the rhetoric into a box that they have to say if america is not involved it certainly is just going to get much worse but saudi arabia will find its ways to to maintain its intelligence and to maintain its revealing of jets without america and certainly did states has to decide. how much responsibility do they want to have in this and i think that donald trump's case he just wants this whole thing to go away and then wanting it to go away so that he can focus on america first initiatives which unfortunately also includes violence on the southern border with mexico violence that seems to just be a circuit circling around the term ministration so be interesting to see what happens in the coming week when this debate does go to the floor and in the

response which will basically probably be just setting it aside one more time ok it all remains to be seen out because we thank you so much for your insight appreciate it. iran's president is warning of an all out war with russia or naval confrontation in the black sea on sunday has worsened relations and planning to send more missile defense systems to crimea and the peninsula that it annexed from ukraine four years ago and reports. as nearly half of his country goes on the ukraine is president is making a stark warning about russia accusing it of sending more tanks to its border petro poroshenko says he wants ukraine to do more to defend itself against the threats of a land invasion. so. these tanks have not yet been removed from there they're still there i don't want anybody to think those are toys the country is under threat of a full scale war with the russian federation so the goal of this martial law is to

show that the enemy will pay a very high price if he decides to attack us it will be like a cold shower that will stop the mad men who have plans to attack ukraine and if there is no further aggression we will assume that the goal of these actions is achieved. those remarks will do nothing to calm down the tension and russia is announcing the deployment of more as four hundred missile systems in crimea and donald trump says he may now cancel his meeting with vladimir putin that's jew at the g twenty summit and board of salaries this week. with a lot of his now trying to dismiss what happened on sunday as a incident. i think it's a provocation a provocation organized by the authorities and i think the president himself ahead of the presidential elections scheduled to open in ukraine in march of next year.

would beauticians. the border in syria nothing more than what happened in two thousand and fourteen when crimea decided to reunite with russia it was a completely different massive story. as for the twenty four captive ukrainians including three hospital they'll remain in detention for at least the next two months under the court's orders of a judge how is this all playing out for people in ukraine's capital kiev it seems to be widespread support for more. than this that i mean when you begin from here we don't see what's happening on the russian border but the president knows where to do you know his best. there is no need to panic we have to support our government. whatever hurts russia benefits ukraine the united because i knew if there is to be martial law it should be nationwide one law for our. it should have been introduced earlier we've been at war for nearly five years.

that last point to remind us of the only going conflict in the east of the country between pro russian separatists and ukrainian forces in which more than ten thousand people have died since the fighting broke out in twenty fourteen what's happening off the shores of an excursion mir is threatening to open up a new front line in the conflict interests and then strands us live from the ukrainian city of kharkiv near the russian border so. this is this is a big city this is ukraine second city how is martial law affecting that particular place. we've only just arrived and on the way into the city after a rather long overnight train ride we saw police stopping vehicles just checking them over but that is the only out wood visual sign of martial law here it has been imposed where all the second day people were in

a state of lille tension we're told they were very frightened many people when they heard that president outlining the fact that he said that three times the number of tanks had amassed on the border the border is only forty kilometers from here so they had every right to be tense as talk about missile strikes possibly and all sorts of rumors being whipped up on the contrast to that is really. no sign of any military rule whatsoever no troops on the streets no incense numbers of police apart from those checks on the outskirts of the city and as far as local officials are concerned the mayor and all of his officials and the regional officials here this is one of ten regions where there is martial law these officials are confused we're told that they're seeking clarification they want more information about was this martial law actually means that it's being used martial law lights all super

lights because it appears that the martial law is is here if it's needed and that's what really is a contingency should there be a major escalation and should that be an invasion by the russians then a whole series of measures which would restrict civil rights restricts all sorts of areas of normal life and perhaps engage in extra drafting of soldiers there was a drafting system now but more drafting is feared if that happens so that is the situation with regard to martial law. andrew symonds live pressing ukraine andrew thank you let's go to our a challenger who is in the russian capital so right president donald trump has been that this meeting that he was supposed to have with vladimir putin the g twenty summit that it may be cancelled what is the kremlin saying.

you don't trump said that on tuesday he was speaking think to reporters and said and i don't like that it aggression so maybe there won't be the meeting maybe or and have it you wanted to see a report before he decided well the russian perspective always was that they were planning for this meeting that it was going to go ahead and we have just heard from the kremlin in the last hour or so that as far as they're concerned this is all confirmed dmitri peskov who's the kremlin spokesperson said all this will take place on the sidelines of the summit the g. twenty summit it will be on december the first at about noon they'll be a brief conversation as we expect between the two presidents and then the russian u.s. talks which may last about an hour he said that russia and the united states didn't necessarily have to agree on all issues but you're certainly talk in the interests

of moscow and washington and the entire global community as to whether they're going to be other head to head meetings between flemmi putin and leaders such as to reason may the kremlin the saying that those on should you at the moment but maybe they'll be some contacts on the sidelines so yeah the of the president is essentially saying we have always been planning for this meeting we have not heard anything from the americans to suggest that it's not happening so therefore we are going ahead with it ok or a challenge for us in moscow right thank you. plenty more ahead in the news hour including thousands of colombians are on the streets promising protest until the government meets their demand. going to the curb leaves for mark on the new york skyline or take you through the building late architects a t.v. . and sport man are back on track and the european champions league show will have all the details and a bit. more

just syria says the latest talks involving iran russia and turkey to end the war in missed opportunity staffan de mistura says he's disappointed with the failure to form a u.n. backed constitutional committee meeting and capitola stonor reaffirm their commitment to no violence in it live that is the last rebel stronghold representatives of the syrian government in opposition were at the talks as well and heard reports from a stunner. a new round of talks on syria have concluded with little town jubal progress the meetings over the past two days concentrated on the formation of a un constitutional committee that was supposed to rewrite the constitution at the in the joint statement released by the russians the iranians and the turks the guarantors are the main power brokers in syria reaffirm their commitment to create this committee and that there will be further consultations now this committee is

important because the west the international community is linking its creation and its work to post-war reconstruction in syria it's linking this to engaging with russia's own diplomatic offensive russia wants to move to the post-war reconstruction phase it wants refugees to return it really wants to cement president bashar assad's hold on power his battlefield gains but the international community is not on board they want to see political reform first they're withholding money for reconstruction until that political reform happens now damascus has been intransigent and has been unbending refusing to give up political power because when you rewrite the constitution you're going to curtail the president's powers and in effect you are losing your hold on power i spoke to the head of the opposition delegation after those meetings and but he remained optimistic he said that there was a meeting early this morning with russian delegates and that russia promise that in

the next few weeks there will be further consultations and compromises will be made there is a belief on the part of the opposition that russia at the end of the day will have to make concessions if it wants to end this conflict for an internationally backed deal because you're not going to get a deal that is backed by the international community until it is considered legitimate by the united nations. supporters of sacked prime minister have pushed through a vote in parliament to cut funding of the new prime minister's office this is all about cutting funding for the man who replaced him the former prime minister. took over after the president removed the prime minister plunging the country into a political crisis there's been violence and parliament's when those loyal to russia pasta rejected to no confidence vote against him for more let's go to fernandez enter the longest capital colombo so another vote against me now will he step down.

he basically saying that the full vote the whole process was unconstitutional well . he says in fact he's basically supporters this morning at the start of the parliamentary session had a press briefing just before the session started they said they were not recognizing the speaker who was partial to the ousted prime minister on the bigger missing they said today's vote. was was wrong because it had to do with finance matters and that the government in power could bring in motions to do with finance they said that these matters would be for the courts and. so should not be brought in so basically he's still in denial refusing to accept the results of the board we haven't heard any comment. since the end of that vote but all indications from his faction he's he's by the support base saying that they did not recognise

him so that's that's very stand of him staying in refusing to move from the role of the prime minister so the president is a key figure in all this will he accept at some point that raj pasta has no majority. the. the president had been quite clear at the outset often the two had no confidence motions pos together. basically he said that those hadn't been done in the proper manner if you remember out of courting basically there was a lot of violence during those two sessions there was complete chaos in the house of parliament so the speaker was forced to take a voice vote for those two no confidence motion which will pause but the president refused to recognize that when he met with foreign correspondents on sunday and he said that he would have to accept it if the vote was carried out today's vote that has been carried out the speaker is meeting the president later this evening

according to an announcement from the speaker's office so we are waiting to see how the president reacts now fernando is live for us in colombo mel thank you a state now today in new delhi via skype is the director of the society for policy studies and we appreciate your time let's let's broaden this out to the region broader than that. how concerned is china about what's happening. i will save that for china trip is very important country boat because of its location in the indian ocean the way in which i know how aligned it's all managed and aspirations as far as the indian ocean regions consent secondly china outlooks will. be allright but we invented this in chief being as proud it's made andrew in michigan in this fluid work. and the more.

we obvious to all other what have considerable relevance in the long term so my duty is that the domestic political crisis in sri lanka is something that will be monitored very carefully by beijing largely because if you recall when mr hayashi a while the president this is before mr treason he had got into a very close relationship with ma school for a number of all three large infrastructure projects these include the auto on my border which incidentally is all new because district this is the new stuff ship with the president then you have to change a major and mrs she said not coming in the breast with mr wake up singing it right minutes and the events of the last month where it used to becomes to get beat by the palm of it. it all sounds

a bit comics but suffix is that china has an interest in how the ballistic on the beads off i'm going to pan out so i'm mike stitch india will also be monitoring it very carefully because of the fact that if china gets a global full court in the yes but do you really intrigue it has a large number of implications for him because. i'm strategic so let me ask you this you've made a very good case for why china is definitely monitoring what's happening there do they actually have any influence any way to affect what is happening there to help stabilize what's happening there. i don't you don't china has kids yet but i think china is. to significantly influenced almost all of it was just in the morning. where. that we beijing or fall

and if you're not going to come will the last. from the dying. hasta look presidential the response from mr carson to mr. i will make the case that i think china's financial markets not yet match markets. don't know whether to guess. ok appreciate your time thank you so much i'm curious about. a few moments we will have weather with rob here on al-jazeera also georgia is set to elect the former soviet republics first ever female president. here's a busy with thousands of central american asylum seekers stuck at a camp in mexico. a fire and fury a brawl breaks out as time heavyweight boxer is face off for the final time before their big alto about details and sports.

by the spring time flowers of a mountain lake. to the first snowfall on the winter. out of the spring rains in south america are pretty active so far this year some big downpours a could just recently in this week it perri causing pretty widespread flooding cutting off some roads this one here for example which is a typical thing every spring news is developing these could be greater depths because of that school still has to go on the site but this is peru i'm talking about and the showers of course do exist further east they've moved into paraguayan and brazil that's for one hundred one reason twenty four hours again this week flash flooding territory however that's where the rain is more or less stayed as you can see this big gap here down through europe why and what is or is not in tears over the summer right in northern argentina i think but is there is going to

be a place of focus in the next few days will probably have a fire few days in the forecast more rain this time equally potentially dangerous but useful in california now north california they've already done the best preps they can for what could be some pretty heavy downpours in southern california still scraping away the mud such that lake malibu can overflow if the rain becomes that heavy because indeed there is rain coming only twenty thirty min raise i think and this should end the fire season as you know. the weather sponsored by cats and place. should be a protect him. who. he was had told men to. be trained for years she carries the evidence inside him. that will be enough to find justice in afghanistan's patriarchal society.

watching al-jazeera let's recap the top stories for you now u.s. senators are voting on a bill to end support for the war in yemen despite calls to reconsider from the trumpet ministration many say they have concerns about the u.s. saudi relationships and murder. crane's president has warned of a full scale war with russia after a naval confrontation in the black sea earlier this week the russian coast guard opened fire on ukrainian ships and detained three boats and twenty three men. and the u.n. envoy to syria says the latest talks involving iran russia and turkey to end the war are in missed opportunity stefan de mistura says he's disappointed with the failure to agree on a constitutional committee. just former foreign minister salome zurabishvili is set to be the new president with nearly all the votes counted she'll be the first woman to hold an office in the former soviet republic it's the last direct election of a head of state and georgia because the country is turning into

a parliamentary democracy the vote has been tainted by allegations of fraud and to mitigation robin forestay walker has more from the capital tbilisi. really received sixty percent of the vote in yesterday's turnout is an extraordinary turnaround when you consider that in the first round of these elections she and her rival rick overshadowed they were practically neck and neck i think then she had just a percentage point over here in the first round poll and the reason for that was that she has been very struggled let's say to resonate with voters because of remarks she made about georgia's war with russia where she said georgia should shoulder some of the responsibility there was a new p.r. campaign that so want to patrol the opposition. as criminal as a dangerous step backwards for georgian politics because. her rival had promised to pardon members of the former government who had been charged with abuses of power

while in office some of them are in jail some of them have gone into exile and i think georgians were not ready to see these people come back into georgian politics but perhaps the crucial thing that helped. was this often made by the government to pay off the debts of up to six hundred thousand more georgians around about half a billion dollars this country suffers from extreme poverty and i think this was an opportunity that georgian vote is simply could not resist the opposition accused them of mass vote buying with this initiative they now say that they are going to meet and they're going to discuss the next steps how when and what to do to challenge these results but it looks like. it will be george's next president there have been more protests in colombia against tax reforms and

a lack of university funding groups farmers and trade unions are threatening to hold more rallies until the government meets their demands alice and her. reports in the capital. organizers say at least twenty thousand people are marching through the capital in five different rallies that are arriving to end this wrapped in a good many different parts of the most of the people protesting are students from both public and private union matchstick be asking the men being more public funding more money for public universities that have been chronically underfunded here in colombia but there's also a union members teachers farmers and other groups that are also protesting against a think the thieves tax reform that the new government the president is trying to push forward. mostly by others the protesters and the fact that the new reform

will bring new taxes on a number of basic staples from meat to vegetables and fruits that will affect both the middle class and the poorest the affection. of the columbia society here. government the president has been riddled by a number of the demonstration in rallies since he took office back in august the end so far he hasn't been able to push any meaningful piece of legislation in congress and the people who are protesting today say that they will continue rallying until they get what they want there are now more than six thousand people in a makeshift camp and looking to cross from mexico into the united states their warnings that conditions are worsening with an increased risk of sickness and disease and many of those living there won't qualify for the u.s. asylum they're waiting for some home and has more from tijuana. this is

a little list of the caravan of central americans to find robot volunteers the queue of those waiting to us us is. doherty's for asylum for those on it the key question remains do they actually qualify over weeks out to tierra has talked to dozens of people travelling from douras most told us this their primary reason for fleeing their homeland is increasing poverty in a country where living costs of salut like not to make sixty dollars a month not enough to cover the basic needs of herself or the six children when you do the sums of what you need to buy food clothes shoes for the children it's not enough it's not even enough for the food but there's a problem for her many others economic migrants don't qualify for asylum in the united states that means that many in this care of and attested to be disappoint that's a shared problem for them and the city the plan now it's becoming

a call to make a makeshift camp set up for people is overflowing onto the pavement outside. the many others we talked to stay because they have faith that if they've got this far things work out i ask god to lucius and the cross to help out children even when he is going to into fits my faith sick and given the repeated message of donald trump that some likely i don't want him in our country but others in the caravan do have a chance for asylum those who are fleeing immediate danger but come on like a beast who we met in the legal advice ted he told us wonderful douras is warring gangs trying to recruit his fifteen year old son and i went to speak to them and said my son is honest we're a hard working family and we're not going to do anything illegal and they told me they were going to kill me if he didn't join so we had to flee but u.s.

authorities a processing asylum requests agonizingly slowly even those who do have a chance of getting in a facing a long way joan home and how does it to one. south sudan has been at war for much of its existence and now a report from the e.u. funded research organization says a network of shell companies in the us israel and uganda have helped the country get weapons that is to spite a u.n. arms embargo investigators with conflict armament research found the nearly three million rounds of ammunition delivered to south sudan's army came from bulgaria weapons were also sent from two other european union nations one military aircraft came from the us and shipping process documents wrongly indicated uganda was the final destination of the arms that once the cargo arrived in uganda the shipment was illegally transported to south sudan i clueless is the head of regional operations at conflict armament research. that funding has allowed our field teams

to spend nearly four years crisscrossing south sudan alongside both government and rebel forces to physically documents the weapons that are being used in the conflict that's hundreds of weapons from assault rifles to battle tanks over two hundred thousand rounds of ammunition and then we've tracked those weapons back to their sources and try to understand how they've ended up in the hands of the competence so what we found is that. neighbors have been the primary conduit particularly. of the probably quite conduits and sometimes the active sponsors of weapons to each side of the conflict now up until july of this year there hasn't been a global u.n. arms embargo on south sudan and that has allowed on shipments to come in to south sudan's neighbors legitimately and then be passed on into the south sudanese conflict and what we've found is that in some cases correspondence between for

example the ugandan on the south sudanese government show south sudan arranging for uganda to provide the paperwork that makes it look like these weapons are coming into for the end use of uganda and zimbabwe opposition leader nelson chamisa has called for a nationwide protests against the government. party is warning any deaths during the protests will be the opposition's fault post-election rallies in august saw six people killed south korea's supreme court has ordered japanese industrial giant mitsubishi to compensate twenty eight south koreans for forced labor during the second world war the decision follows the court's ruling in october in favor of those seeking damages from another japanese company for its use of force or time labor. reports from the south korean capital seoul. there were two rulings by south korea's top court on thursday both ordering japan's i mean to be she had the industries to pay a total of twenty eight south korean laborers who were forced to work on the

company's premises during the second world war and i want to be she will have to pay a minimum of seventy one thousand u.s. dollars to the individual plaintiffs and their families who are mostly in their eighty's and ninety's and many of them have already passed away now this was a ruling watched closely by both japan and south korea as if all those last months a landmark ruling by south korea's top court ordered another japanese company to compensate south koreans for the same reason now japan's foreign minister was quick to respond on thursday calling the court's decision extremely regrettable and totally unacceptable and he also said that it quote fundamentally overturns a legal basis for friendly ties between japan and south korea and its a b. she also commented calling the court's decision deeply regrettable now tensions between the two countries will escalate south korean government said that they

stand with the court's decision well japan says that the south koreans rights to get compensation was terminated when the two countries signed a treaty back in one thousand nine hundred sixty five to dorm allies diplomatic relations to stand it india has started construction of their first decent free border crossing allow sick pilgrims to visit trons on either side it is a rare moment of cooperation between the nuclear armed rivals reports. the sikh community have cooled for this for a long time a car or two to allow them easy movement between india and pakistan sikh temple. with the founder of sikhism spent the last years of his life but it significance goes beyond religion. the first visa free border crossing in the two nations history and yes or no more i see this corridor as a big symbol of friendship and brotherhood this corridor will make people to people

contact after a long time of disconnection once again people are connected. previously sikhs had to travel more than one hundred kilometers to visit the pilgrim sites even though that abbas a heap is incomes are poor just three kilometers from the indian border the new corridor will connect it with the indian shrine of data baba nanuk. pakistan's prime minister approved the idea and let the groundbreaking ceremony building a road in a minute he's for the pilgrims is expected to take four months but. the reason i want friendship in a strong relationship with india is because the subcontinent is facing the most poverty in the world if we want to finish or reduce poverty in our region we need to open our borders for trade but the good will only windsurfer is pakistan held a ceremony the indian foreign minister how to hear our news conference she dismissed a pakistani invitation to attend a regional summit this posturing not responding to the money you need because as i

think i listen here. in india. you know. india and pakistan have fought three wars since one thousand nine hundred seven two of them of the himalayan region of kashmir which both claim in full but room pas. this was the scene in india to minister kashmir when stay after police commanders of a pakistan based group. and yet just seventy kilometers from the border of the disputed region building started on a corridor to bind the country's sikhism was founded here in the fifteenth century is their pilgrimage opens back up its host pakistan and india can begin one of their own shallop balance. that's been the most violent year for indian administered kashmir in nearly a decade according to the rights group that monitors violations in the region jemma
