really important is the handover is supervised by the am and the people that are being hand that the port the people that are going to take control of the park right now the government needs to kind of their influence over them to whom these are going to try to do the same and so it's not just as of yet how the u.n. wants to make in the neutrality of that court what it means is that once this process begins they set a deadline for themselves which is twenty one days so from the summer eighteenth you have twenty one days to kind of finish this court handover and within two weeks of the foot of the party being operable you're going to have minutes hearing aid coming into yemen and then going to parts of the country that were pretty much besieged and those are the parts that the hope you have control over where the people the population under them and it's as suffering at the hands of just being

turkish tanks roll into syria and korea has been bolstering its military positions along with south of border as it prepares for what it calls a full fledged offensive on the kurdish held city of mumbai is syria syrian rebels backed by tuckey are also on the move both inside areas of syria and the techies sway and along the eight hundred twenty two kilometer border between the two countries kurdish forces are miles from friday that they have been forced to cut a deal with the regime of president bashar assad after they were abundant by donald trump or nonstop the complete withdrawal of u.s. troops from syria a little over a week ago here syrian troops deployed in support of kurdish forces seen on the edge of man beach their deployment creates a government buffer actually across north from syria which fully separates the turkish army and its proxies from the kurds but they are yet to enter the city of

money bitch as they claimed early on friday. we haven't seen any movement of the syrian army in miami beach all we see are the military council of mine which members. the conflicting reports from them but perhaps sure the cales thoughts likely to ensue and of the sixty to one hundred day timetable for the withdrawal of u.s. troops with the remaining fighting forces in syria has come to replace them in more squat high level toughest immigration led by foreign minister children children's health talks with russian foreign and defense ministers they discuss the situation in syria as u.s. forces flip it the withdrawal. of the students and an understanding was reached on how military representatives of russia and turkey will continue to coordinate the states on the ground under a new conditions with a view of finally rooting out terrorists three since syria. we discussed the latest developments in syria with regards to u.s.

for a campaign marked by weeks of violence and arrests of opposition supporters prime minister sheikh hasina is expected to return for a fourth term as she's been criticized for the crackdown on the opposition on chance transfer that is live for us in dhaka so charles i understand the polls have just opened what's the mood like there. where outside a polling station in an area called middle school or here in the capital dhaka. today is calm so far it's important to recognize that all the banners that you can see behind me all the political posters and banners there are either full the ruling party the awami league all affiliated groups and parties which certainly try to speak certain people here who say that they come to try and cast their votes show opposition candidates they are saying that the atmosphere is one of great

tension and are very nervous about speaking to us on camera there is a high security presence here we are being followed around by security constantly being told that this is for our own security but as you rightly say the build up all these elections has been marred by what the opposition says is unprecedented levels of violence and intimidation the opposition saying that at least ten thousand six hundred of their supporters have been detained in the weeks in the run up to this election the leading opposition group or alliance yesterday in a press conference said that least one hundred fifty of their candidates have been what they describe as attacks by pro ruling party supporters in the run up to this election the government says that these figures exaggerated indeed fabricated and they're keen to point out that at least six of the league support.

in recent weeks they also leave big questions about the election commission here the opposition alleging that the election commission has been corrupted seriously compromised by the ruling party the big questions about the amount of international election observers that have been allowed into the country one main group. withdrawing from drawing its application after what it says was a serious delay by the government in crafting them access to come here it's going to be very interesting to see just how many people come out and cast their ballots today and certainly the opposition concerned that this level of what they describe as spirit intimidation may well keep a lot of voters away. what's at stake in the country's political direction. well certainly express the saying that a lot has been achieved by the ruling party in the last few years so we would

expect to the economy according to the world bank they're describing it is one of the fastest growing economies in south asia averaging more than six percent growth in recent years we know that there are big infrastructure projects that have already started here in recent years including a major nuclear power station there are for example economic zones that have been set up by the opposition says that a lot of this economic growth still comes from remittances and for example the clothing manufacturer industry here it says that more jobs better jobs to be created also the government has been praised for the way that it's handled what was described as the largest refugee crisis in the world last year we saw more than seven hundred thousand range of refugees fleeing a crackdown from myanmar in two thousand and seven saying the government praised for handling that i think it's important to recognize the what we're seeing still is what certain people describe as the battle between two bangladeshis political

make tree arms shake christina who is the daughter of the founding father of this country that has already served three terms and the woman that has been in jail now is serving a jail sentence for corruption charges. the woman who is the leader of the main opposition group leader who herself has to college who is as prime minister a lot of people are saying that very little has changed despite being in jail the big party are running a little action as part of the wider opposition alliance but a lot of people say that you know this this battle this rivalry between these. to within is holding the development of this country back. most certainly so the opposition also people say with respect to the politics of this country the political future of this country but there are those who also say that this kind of

economic progress is not wide enough there is a lot hanging on this vote but certainly all the tension at the moment is whether today's vote will pass. without the kind of security problems without the kind of violence that we've seen in the run up to the election. for there so much the first polls are about to open in the democratic republic of congo for a long delayed presidential election these are pictures from the eastern city of goma votes is a choosing a successor to president joseph kabila stepping down after seventeen years in power the elections were delayed by two years and the raf has been plagued by violence a peace pact to defuse tension between political parties collapsed after the opposition refused to sign the deal. the country's top appealed for calm following weeks of political unrest two people were killed during protests on friday. you

know that eleven electoral commission need to tell the truth we are not people you can just stricken foo are going to be the contrast of votes and then in burnie and over there they are not voting. commission needs to take the time to explain to us what happens if a large part of the population can't vote are they going to know the election over there be country near a teacher in the months in between there is total confusion with their calendar and they can take this well beyond. head on al-jazeera the u.k. government on alert after a jump in the number of migrants crossing the sea from france we report from both sides the english channel.
