a sleeve big mosque and sponsors small souls have come here to pray. right here right to show three. assemble one of them what i'm going to like move on to get the i boarded up and move wherever. i was there if she did see was there already here globally no sort of disgust for my life in europe because. i was there all day was the most complete human part was a. part of most of the most searing is nothing like him because you never see

you going to the point to the thing my niece just got in the media like she's been missing for more money buying something more than yourself what are we keeping same here and there by six in the same month five years come forward and you're right it was a you come across number one but you still miss them is all right same mistake the smile. he's given you should i or my space given for one of your book about the engineer you simple minded woman from whom you knew. me knew mostly. i said to the north caucasus where dozens of small muslim nations try. to co-exist

with russia. one of them the russian autonomous republic of dagestan is it so home to some thirty distinct ethnicities. deadpanned in ancient city in southern pakistan once had an arabic name. the gateway. is through this city bordering on today's azerbaijan that islam started to spread into what is now russia as early as the seventh century. and millenium later russia now and powerful empire conquered dogs down after a long and brutal war. cook asian muslim culture survived in the russian empire listserv each union and putin's russia mixing with some customs from russia's norm.

at the nineteenth century to my mosque. told me about the legendary leader of dug a stone a mom sharmeen who fought the russians but then made peace with the top. what was the story they just made. which. is just. a book or book. and. spoke when they. and. i was very encouraged to hear a young muslim from their band be so positive about our coexistence in the russian federation especially because they know that many ethnic russian. a prejudiced

against a muslim compadres from the caucuses. on the second day of the. i was honored to be invited to a mountainous village known for its long tradition of silversmithing. the regime. i'm being. alibek cotai himself a simple smith took me to his cousin's house with a large extended family have gathered for a lavish celebration. try something more than good enough with that some choice i would rather who thought this was a big room and it will be over. for. sure to come because i moved into the world remember that you know it was william for

this you don't suppose for this was renewal it only took a slower the symbol this is than the. sum of the whole sum however it is the truth for the bottles. of. cristal most yet it is good to be teach. a. bit. more but we must tell you what is most to you when you're just a vocal in school girls mostly serious he said soon the fiscal issues with. scorches could do. as good blood as boys had an orange i'm going to go look in a quarter of the figure of the most important of those here but in the distance but it's a good good filter. just consider this the reason for the war. i

believe is sincere in saying that there's no conflict between his darkest tiny identity and his russian citizenship. i wonder if everyone in this small but ethnically complex republic has as happy about the coexistence of their culture with the russian state. twice since the fall of communism twenty five years ago russia has mounted brutal military campaigns in chechnya dagestan immediate neighbor and a fellow muslim nation in the caucasus. dug a stock has its own chechen minority since putin defeated independence fighters in chechnya and installed at a russian veto that pockets of resistance to moscow rule on may be active in

dagestan. and. you know what. you know and. money. that. is because. things are going. for the sycamores from over your mug a man who was in the armed resistance or as they say in the forest for a year agreed to talk to me. is the person with the most is the.

first person. in the room with through the most. american acoustic. we were the. principal. just on the bill for business just there was a clear. that was. the story there was a truce just. so america solicited them and i mean i don't like doing enough things up a business or stone or this for a little skittish. and that's not in those just almost alone on them but this goes . on the more of a bust a move i mean what is the core of this kind. of what's what you let's say those two actually released critically did this to put their seemed in the stream william

scimitar nutritive building should it be to the extent it astonishing to their nation to do that it could go in the where you were. and we wanted to do that before another unit was still. shook up over a dozen knew it because things. didn't stink over. it will move to the us where it was you know that people will think usually right and that's because it has to spinsterhood been a. good issue is that it's a good. shop and bathroom and i don't want. or need a commission one unit you know hundreds of books. and i'm going to get one the. most the first or the next month that's for sure that i didn't.

want to get to pretty much the sort of the good thing. so she is based on her exhibit. which movie did that's when i was on there for the first do it through. the window poach the sim card complete with a porch there's a risk to me is that it's right but it's just the thought of same in the loo but yeah if the book is denied it. is don't get the destroy it just missed the degree. that this thing isn't. through little more launch workers from the greens. the good it is being used to skiing is the biggest thing in the bush team and how could anything if we could get the organ the global good first do it through which you can use for building and it could deliver through the. east and the shame to the poor that the boy is ill. but the legal. age to be cheesy is

a little through your mind you freeze. over go to but they mind their thoughts their bullshit is so the most level because was. made in the reason that you're. going over go at us where you see me is still discussing soil much the smug ways we need bush for going to the potential social. wealth of principle at the most that will. he could suggest. and this could go team and cease to exist that could become used to. work and it's because of that but that that's it remains reason. to have the woods in. which it isn't willful. company which is the kindest insure the closer and the arch and the cross lesser than if so just look at the photo.

we're trying to get through to the village of the home of douglas town's nineteenth century leader. and today the epicenter of tensions between muslims and federal forces and our guest on. the recent leader of muslim resistance. also known as the caucasus. is from here as well. we're stopped at a checkpoint the guards identified as journalists and we're not allowed through. so we're told just missing from the embassy federal security service.

which was that if you visited. me you mean yes he might. let me ask him what's the matter with that if. i'm walking up the liberty sophism burst of words so that you know. the my super. fit. is. that it. is a loser. and. i'm not allowed to go. because it's dangerous might be kidnapped by some salafist. terrorists according to their spiel such as the talks.

we might be able to. have any of my last. checkpoint. events occur with i don't pay attention to the at this peace warning i wonder if a safety is the real reason for keeping us journalists away.

off to a few detours we managed to get through to the village of frame in which like gary has been subjected to several so-called anti-terrorist operations. the army and security forces are looking for seventeen resistance fighters including their bita . a year later the villagers are still grieving for what they feel is barbaric aggression. and some in the past a national existence and. no one on sept on mr bush to turn class on the bullish show was tasha but i took a mess tanya when no one is that they are but bush gets to turn into a new woman that i knew would cut in the islamic press at the moment i'm going nuts on the palin annual screw to learn what was adjusted to miss it so on purpose press

opposed supply. stuff the pub class starts but. not supplying is still the. well deserved i can go to those days plus looking to leave them time by god with us that we can get something a bill or that's a plenum that's a pretty big star scam out there don't think i'm a good one then there are three shange of that with either of the skills that use them just you that dangerously go on that i knew that would really well that's a. good sign i mean if i didn't national question what's taking the time you think you would on baal is the one that. was like damn i think of them as a double because they were of the bank. of the money with so little that still goes this. is just that so mysteriously it was. this year.

that you met me near is the near quota may guide us through. the chain of custody there. well the. news is happening faster than ever before from different places from different people and you need to be backed you need to be able to reach people wherever they are and that means being of course in social media platforms this is where our audience lives as well as in front of a t.v. they're on their smartphone they're on the tablet they're on their computer. and that's the way al-jazeera is of all due to a true media network. whether online i want to start

here on my laptop with a tweet or if you join us on say there was a rush of adrenaline will be felt this is the moment that we have been waiting for this is a dialogue the government has called face an eagle protest and instructed police to disperse the crowds everyone has a voice for votes for lots of different reasons what's different types of bricks join the global conversation on al-jazeera. hello montaner in london the top stories on our jazeera the u.s. military says it carried out an asse strike in somalia that killed fifty two fighters it was launched hours after the group attacked a somali army base the armed group has also claimed responsibility for tuesday's attack on a luxury hotel and shopping complex in neighboring kenya ramadan has more. it's

very hard to say the scale of the u.s. or russia but in somalia because it is largely security or porous no one really knows how many u.s. troops are present on the ground all we know is that the number husbands inclusive of all says donald trump came to office they're awful took advantage of a loosening or restrictions on who i'm going to engage they have a huge military base eighty kilometers away southwest of mogadishu in a place known as police dog and that's where the boom boom ching most of the broom strikes police in athens have used tear gas to stop angry protesters from entering greece's parliament building thousands of people have been demonstrating against the proposed name change deal with macedonia scope here wants to change the country's name to the republic of north macedonia and many greeks object because

macedonia is the ancient name of one of their regions. sudanese police fired tear gas to break up protests in the capital khartoum and the city of durham on trucks carrying security personnel were deployed to endure man after protesters blocked streets to protest as having taken the streets for two months now to demand the resignation of president omar bashir the partial government shutdown in the u.s. has entered its thirtieth day hundreds of thousands of government employees are struggling to make ends meet without pay president trump has attacked democrats for rejecting his proposal to end the shutdown and provide funding for his border war zimbabwe's president and isn't the one god where has cut short an overseas trip to deal with the ongoing unrest in his country at least twelve people have been killed and hundreds have been arrested during demonstrations against rising fuel prices a spokesman for the president says the police crackdown is a foretaste of how the government will respond to unrest. those are the headlines

in search of putin's russia reclaiming the empire continues next and i have news after you straight after that i'll see them live now. but i did watch your son much that i missed. this year. trying to. get some knowledge of him say over and know that. he is not on the side of my family and of us but said she still has to find

a school because the game. just was with a young. man. he did. know and tumble just. the sort of. the state of being paid to go through the. canard that not three not super dome but mentoring me. and this is going to get an electric i'm not scared of the father but through me just to disabuse the snow. leopard america tradition of i'm always sure a garden of carbon other words had to do it right with. tears but the woman who got the best in the word.

i mean. i mean if. you don't. know what's up. and you really

are. and you are still. in that because of the deeds. people. in the whole. system will click. with you on. this.

notice to me. but i was for this up a little good for cisco i'll never look at it i said i'd just. today die just on russian citizens of different cultures a free to follow their traditions and customs. yet what is freedom for some is a moral challenge for others. that freedom may be seen as an imposition by bullies especially in regions once added to the empire by force.

brutal occupiers for some he read defenders from others in mainland russia settling abodes a sentiment of fervent loyalty and even poetry. veterans bands like this one in the western siberian city of need a guild i'm sorry. to. say in the same. mold and soon coming. into play this must be who put this. one up to help the little boy to see. that there are few.

enough to. see. in. she's the c.e.o. . who threw. in the center of it inboard russia's third largest city as a monument to the local soldier the fellow in the wars and conflicts witnessed by current generations of russian guns down the chicas don chechnya. and now they don't buy into eastern ukraine where russian volunteers fight alongside pro russian locals who want independence from the pro western ukraine.

the west accuses the russian government of supporting these volunteers and possibly even of direct military involvement. i waiting to meet bloody mary a female a special forces officer from you can take him back to trains and sends volunteer fighters to the east and ukraine. everything. possible opening up on the no mutiny could be just in there still for. number of shots of those. musical those earlier so through just for the awards and pretty much. just go at it.

but almost a year. girl a little. more sickness and. years and i don't know what has it worse i used. to live in the with have over that she said. but there isn't a duty in this job. you could have done in the covert theater when you. saw me do over it when his lovely over a minute slip on it there was a major operation was ringing serious case i use torture of any stand between violet. and you not the bullet. you mean you can see this. you can still don't you but here's the thing when you put it as if it is glass immigrants. and you move them to some guns it doesn't as good as in

there's a subway. usually. doesn't it wasn't as good as in the subway used. to be as a result. of what are you in the you wish they just saw a shilling in grain and ask overs to buy gears or it all chance of the broward. in the blodgett or the. we russians are good at in temperature wars because purely defensive. that becomes difficult to argue with claim that an act of aggression was the soviet not strictly russian initiative to. be air rage in

syria of course others probably russian military operation for a long. and i wonder how long it will take before new names will be added to this monument. the conflict with the ukraine has dominated russia's political life for year and a half. russia and the west accuse each other interfering in the fray. over a million refugees have already crossed into russia from the eastern ukraine. in an office where ukrainian refugees are helped with registration in russia i look for someone prepared to tell me their story. victoria kolesnikov it is a small entrepreneur from the dawn boss despite the difficulties of life as

a refugee she is full of energy and has already found a job as a sales assistant when she becomes a russian citizen her career chances should improve. i was invited to victoria and sergey kolesnik of the new flat. just do not pass in the void leave things you want . i know so i've said it unless there is a crazy way out what nasa qatar is. stunning sadness national have you seen the crane only need that new. some get it economy going after you got a little. business just need as much. come in yet a bloated porch the first they really were. released. in the most polluted city in the simplicity you can see is a music scene you just could not prize and it's going to come from. musical groups into two could also all. other countries into but is there

somebody i really want to see his lead on the. i'm not pushy to blow up a couple for you and this is just you please a story. we brought you to school. or did you get to. know the. i know it don't go there oh no it was too young i just googled regulus from when you could i knew you could i could download the personal use your term but the oil we did like that would. give a. new business the banking deal give a stone which is a bribe to roost you out of the dinner on which even the going to stay at you would do you could go through the shallow water to work on their boards. then you are some. rights here where you.

less business with. what you say there's a lot of misname leslie but she had them so it would be new. i'm stunned you think you should cook gnashing. of reported. works. for you might you have not. come to you since you were done by us when you push away what we did you were you. have done by us study here or then yes i do know. now there's a post them then they have to use a new c but i'd use the of one of you it's a minimal most even you look at the chance of. shooting him because there. are different. runs in the news of muslims because then there are the. from. this if i were thought of

for postals movie. was a. private. think that i knew less than doing. a which do not see today is a very special day the life of the college meet a family that you just missed but you didn't mean you. should have a deceptive love the. one thing must be said. they have an appointment at the local police station to become no more no less citizens of russia. some of us have trouble the world and have seen more comfortable places than

central russia. some long to leave putin's russia for the west. and you. know who think of what these are very late still longer stuff the boss killing this field on the roof of the mosque in years makes it more obvious for those who. are russian passport means hope and the chance of athens that fit the main winner was telegraphed me a great. tension and violence continued in the ukraine. conflicting accounts of what's happening i mean it's hard for me to form a clear picture of the conflict. i hear of someone who's recently returned from fighting for don't buy. it feels unsafe to me to

ponder dos q since he no longer shares the government's version oh. the events would be a great. coach because we're so good to me means more to us but who. grew from a dream bilbo's of sitting here with. you. and your should post just it's almost not by the oh that's it nico i just thought it was for thanks to all those cute dumb beaut or so old school in the city that give you. money you're going to pull the new stupid or the. accuser to putus lansky but then you. know it was she was just a lot of. good and she. resists was good most ational support of.

look it over to give us you with us in the bullshitters who should have done the most of all the way ships who should think what is. the best. ludmilla seeing someone show the letter c janja let you know that she chose a bush response that was all but some last thing just as she is. getting looking in the u.k. it's all just think it's a bush with a team he's could be a bull in your sleep but it's going to them a bushel of them with you. you've been opposing since library don't you know could you put it so let us multiple more numb to look them sliced can see of choices for me or you know the grammys mineable look at the moment is still a little stiff likely chip or the thumb all the cues are a bit of a cushion for them and the residual men would move business from the u.s.s. cole to bush it was a duty even while you belittling it on top of me

a bit of the stab people in the overwhelm so slim build according to what i need to give you the deal. or. if there's a more. sure . one to use before proposals are going to come through but i'm not good enough to get them up from school mostly to do duty impossible to miss through one post but i think the signature if you're into the courses can just.

bonded out of keith's first hand account of his war experience maybe two troubling for the man of the street. many of my fellow russians prefer a more simplistic view of the world and its politics. because of the image for them with others of. the me but i'm sure that if i knew. i could ask the question on more of my service we would only look at the little boy your most serious love in the city. nearly as if in a given. go at the natural. door of the hearse no one else but i was if there is a new yorker good else then you are one of them was one of. the grants and of course i'll go through. the way the goods are here during our order then you're one of the ones who was the most generous. in the. matter i see via the washing

in that. a military ship is one of the favorite pastimes for ordinary russians. i test one of the latest rifles from the famous kalashnikov company that i want in the devil. despite western sanctions russia remains the second largest arms exporter in the world it has the world's best and largest fleet of tanks and the most sophisticated anti-aircraft defenses but those second american might on many counts russia is a formidable military force and an extremely proud one at the same time it sees itself as a benign power that uses force only in defense it will never admit to being an

empire its in numerable nations are supposed to be equal and happy to be part of a great country someone i met here alan has here from a city in the north caucuses express that view with astounding directness the one. you mean that on the i'm going to sell you live i'm not sure if i will meet a guy that is all male one. that's enough children was what should i go usually don't worry it isn't one. i'm not only totally noble genuine. was more this did the. person the dealer. in the middle of vietnam or on so to no media and. such because at your age and praise for our state doesn't tell the whole story. in the next film of the series will deal with the culture of open to keep it dark at pages about history. as for the future it seems likely that

the next generation will share the uncritically proud view of their homeland that prevails today.

well i was forty two degrees in perth sunday not much else happens you can't see anything generated from it's just dry heat there is cloud further east and that has in fact dropped the temperatures in various places so also generate some pretty big showers around sydney north of camber as well that might be repeated but the heat has gone from down to thirty two now and it's running through south australia eventually it'll start to warm places like adelaide of adelaide already it's thirty two and it will get warm this is come tuesday and once again when he is terrified raj across the dawsons due south wales and again towards city in a city where is the rain that you might think this should be the wet season the rain has been avoiding the last really for a couple of weeks it's on its way just hasn't got there yet as the new zealand well another pretty high temps across churches ten above average that's going on sunday probably fearne if it could see the clouds on the west side of the mountains it dries up in the air warms as it comes down the eastern side nevertheless the

picture is about twenty three in oakland wellington widespread cladding not the strong wind in the west but a rain in the south of science and that is on monday come to see that's probably largely gone and the sun's a lot rather more prevalent so again cross church might be particularly warm. colleague must much the same as now being held in pretrial detention for two years what is his crime. why hasn't he been tried yet why hasn't justice been applied in this case is he detained because he said charnock must as journalism become a crime have moles become a tool to silence voices of truth we will continue our news coverage with professionalism and impartiality our work will remain credible and accurate but journalism is not a crime incarcerating journalists is not acceptable we demand the immediate release

of all colleague mahmoud to say and all journalists detained in a gyptian jails free mahmoud's and all his colleagues we stand for press freedom. a face can tell a story without touching a single way. the unconventionality of life. witnessed through demands of the human eye. on al-jazeera. this is zero. zero in your intake of this is the al jazeera news hour live from london coming up . the u.s. says it's killed fifty two members of al shabaab in an airstrike in response to

recent attacks. and. tensions in greece as thousands protest in athens over the proposed name change deal to normalize relations with macedonia. zimbabwe protests police warn that a crackdown on demonstrators is just a taste of things to come. and ailing industry the chinese medicine shops that are now in poor health themselves. and i'm far as mallaby here with all the sport including asian caps top ranks side around the dome on to advance to the quarter finals at the turn of. the u.s. military says it carried out an airstrike in somalia that killed fifty two fighters

it was northeast hours after the group attacked a somali army base still controls large parts of rural southern and central somalia and continues to carry out high profile attacks in the capital mogadishu and elsewhere since twenty seventeen the u.s. military has stepped up air raids against the group in somalia carrying out forty seven strikes last year. as fighting to overthrow the internationally backed government in mogadishu ramadan who has this report and a warning you may find some of the images distressing. the destruction caused by u.s. warplanes targeting al shabaab fighters near the port city of kiss my you in southern somalia bodies and beyond all shells of vehicles lies through not a moment remind us of the intensity of the strikes they killed what the command center for u.s. forces in africa describes as five to two militants the somalia mrs little told his hide how long we managed to kill at least seventy five ship bab militants after they attacked us and many more were injured we are telling people about that

victory today the airstrikes came hours after fighter stormed a somali i mean base three hundred seventy kilometers southwest of the capital of the ship. somali commanders say six soldiers were killed in the town and two others died when a booby trapped vehicle blew up as the army but told for hours to pick up at the base u.s. military helicopters were sent to help the pentagon has increased the rate of strikes in somalia and recent tease partly because president donald trump has loosened restrictions on when the u.s. military can take action against what are described as terrorist targets the number of u.s. forces in somalia increased in the past two days us about fighters who are linked to al qaida retain a strong presence in parts of south and central somalia they also regularly attack targets in neighboring kenya updates and trips to somalia as part of one african union peacekeeping force al-shabaab says it was behind tuesday's hotel up tuckey

label we have forgotten and a suicide bomber killed twenty one. five suspects appeared in court on friday connection with the tuck police say all but one of the five gunmen who carried out the takaka and something that is raising the threat of homegrown terrorism mohammed all the while jazeera nairobi. david autor is a security consultant and joins us now set to go back to the u.s. air strike that killed fifty two fighters what would you make of the scale of this particular u.s. strike the u.s. has been carrying out strikes this is not the first time we've seen strikes during the obama regime ministration has also been approving these airstrikes but these kill doesn't really reflect on the main targets you know that you would expect specially the. key leaders the target some of the low level fighters but it doesn't really affect them because they have

a huge pool of you know militants to immediately replace you know the ones who are targeted so they're not scared by the strikes that the u.s. is actually putting in place at the moment so what of the moment is this the kind of the force of. which we talked with mention that they've surprised to be moved out of the cities and into the kind of rural areas but how big a presence are they have a huge presence you know the problem is with these kind of movements ease you can't really tell how many sleeper cells they have within the local population because that's how the govern information intelligence and and plan the attacks so are shabaab has a huge number but no one can really put a finger a student numbers that you know expression they are the faction has which you know supersedes the defection of the islamic state of west of of of west of east africa so it is important to you know not really pay so much attention to the numbers but how the really recruit more and how easily they do that and in this case of the attack in on tuesday in kenya. how worried should people be that they they actually

seem to have homegrown or can't kenyans part of ask about i mean the key thing we've always said is you know the problem is not a somalia problem alone because because of the porous borders of course you know then the ideology has spread across areas like tanzania and of course in kenya as we've recently seen you go for to actually attack uganda it will be is also very vulnerable so the attack that happen. unknown to you on tuesday in kenya was an indication that you know i should actually has sleeper cells all over east africa and you could see that one of the reasons as they say that the reason why they targeted that particular area was because you know it is frequently by by western interests you know this is a very you know a huge hotel there were five star hotel where a lot of westerners appear in those hotels they live in those hotels so for them that is you know a key area to actually hit the west you know that uses these airstrikes against them said to me back to the kind of the airstrikes and you said that as strikes

don't necessarily solve the problem no it didn't sort of things need to happen to try and get to the to the root causes and to trying reduce there that the problem i think that the problem with us is that it continues to have access to a number of young people to recruit because of the living standards that a lot of these young people don't have an alternative you know sort of leaving so that keeps you know an open space for for them to be actually recruited i think the government has to look into their recruitment drive who sponsors them and who actually you know herb's them to carry out these ducks striking them you know it solves your doesn't actually solve the problem or and tell us a bit about you know that they were the american effort is is mainly to directed towards a kind of airstrike side of things to do they have a an angle which is trying to tackle that of poverty or the kind of disaffection that leads people to to join in congress i think we have an angle with that you know in terms of you know trying to corpus some of the drivers of our shabaab but you know that has been a lot of the you know issues about you know the effectiveness you know of some of

these prevent strategies that some of these governments are using that you talk about corruption which doesn't actually allow you know some of these programs to generate effective and is that the should so the lack of proper governance you know within somalia but not just within somalia in the in all the east african countries that are vulnerable to al-shabaab attacks you know makes it really difficult for some of these programs that could actually deal with the on the line crises. gives room for people to join al shabaab to to actually you know work effectively so i think there is a huge need for all these regional governments to come together and come up with an effective strategy somalia can't do it alone kenya can do it alone none of those countries can do it alone it has to be a regional effort that i thank you very much indeed hale and i thank you. so to come on the out of there news out sudanese security forces fired tear gas to break up protests in khartoum and. five hospitals face closure in gaza due to fuel shortages. and support an autopsy tumbles at the australian open file be here with
