at and blamed john for the attacks the group was originally called lucky nine when it was formed in two thousand and nine by children and or friends of abu so your fighters later on the group renamed itself a junk a junk which means lost command. and there's ten million passes from kidnapping we keep the two million for our group we also extort money from rich families if they don't give it to us even if they are muslims we kill them too . it's a rhetoric that shocks many here despite previous attacks on places of worship the mindanao region was never sharply divided by religion days after the cathedral bombs there was another attack in a place of worship this time a mosque in some born the city it happened at midnight eleven people were asleep here when a grenade was thrown inside it killed people instantly this is

a second attack in a place of worship within just a matter of days and according to the philippine government it seems as though there are efforts to cause the divisions between the different religions but people here reject it they say they will never let that happen muslims here tell us they are hurt and differing with. christians and muslims are more than just neighbors here we enter mary we all grew up together we all love one another. there is concern here that last week's bombings will be the last. but in a heavily guarded mosque preachers for some hope love they say is stronger than violence dogon al jazeera holo salue southern philippines. so i had on al-jazeera with no good government hospitals built new government hospitals

built in thirty years we find out why romania's health system is crumbling. and the pacific got a nation considering legal action against big polluters thousands of kilometers away. and there were just got a few showers over the southeastern parts of asia at the moment most of them over parts of borneo a few over parts of java and some archer as well but to the north is largely fine and dry and that dry weather extends through piles of viet nam to even the philippines it largely from one enjoys just in the south we would a few more showers and some of those could turn out to be roll the heavy monday looks like the west today and by cheese day the showers should be easing over towards australia and we've still got that monsoon low in the northeast it's still

giving us a lot of very heavy rain and a lot of flooding for some of us as well townsville has now seen seven hundred eighty eight millimeters of rain just in the last five days and there's plenty more still to come because this monsoon flow is going nowhere in a great hurry so for some of us in queensland then we are going to see plenty more wet weather and there will be more in the way of flooding not only on monday but also as we head into choose day as well meanwhile towards the south where the hot weather has been looks like that breaks as we head through tuesday so the temperatures they adelaide will be easing they'll still be up at thirty four in perth that does look like a pretty hot week for us over towards new zealand is already fine acetyl for us all monday twenty five fairly warm air in or cleaned. rewind return to care bring your people back to life i'm sorry with brand new

updates on the best of al-jazeera documentaries. i was looking for a no and the other student rewind continues with. my neighborhood i was like screaming good list includes we want leave. my ultimate goal would be to do something very big for the pretty. rewind on al-jazeera. and there again you're watching out there has reminder of our top stories this hour venezuela's president nicolas maduro has offered to hold parliamentary elections as he fights demands to resign but his rival. and his supporters at home and abroad

are demanding a presidential. peace still being signed aimed at ending six years of fighting between muslims and christians in public government leaders struck the deal with fourteen groups after a week of talks in sudan backed by the united nations and can union. and the last four child refugees held in the strain one tensions enter the pacific island have now root of being resettled in the u.s. for their families government says it won't send any more children. the highest child mortality rates and no new government hospitals built since the fall of communism romania admits his health care system is in crisis and leaders say corruption is to blame i don't sleep reports from booker. corruption kills people and in romania hospitals do not necessarily make people better bucharest children's hospital was built in one nine hundred eighty two and much of the equipment doctors and nurses have at their disposal looks like it hasn't changed in

the thirty seven years since inside the hospital lies one year old iron valentino to mr diagnosed by a doctor he's now in a coma his young parents are living in the hospital as his body breaks down in front of them they look completely destroyed. he's made no recovery since he came here his lungs are starting to collapse and his little heart is as well he's on life support they've killed my son images obtained by al-jazeera of the conditions inside some of romania's public hospitals are barely believable this is the pathology units where human tissue was stored inside the hospital in one of romania's biggest cities clues the european union offered one hundred seventy million dollars worth of funding for three new wells bittles a full five years ago but the work hasn't even started the crisis led carmen and on a former business women to launch a crowdfunding campaign to build a new hospital in the capital stepping in where the government has failed they

already raised nearly twenty million dollars there was a look back i don't know your risk lapping there remain a state in the face or showing them it's possible in a country where impossible is about you're always told regarding the first hospital in the country for children with cancer after thirty years of incompetence from their remaining state. so this is it's the first new hospital to be built in romania since the fall of communism paid for by the public it'll be finished years before the government gets around to building them you may well ask yourself how it can be that so a group of business women with no healthcare background can build a hospital from scratch in romania while the government apparently colt's wall on so is that corrupt officials don't want seems european funding because they have to account for it and can't simply stick the money in their pockets the other theory is that they're all just completely incompetent probably the truth is somewhere in the middle no doubt there are politicians who want to do something about all this

but they're up against a huge wall of corruption the current health minister run a relatively successful hospital herself but she admitted to us the system is broken with officials stealing money from public funds yeah. i had bought an m.r.i. scanner for five hundred thousand but here they bought one for two and a half million the exact same one this explains a lot it didn't need explaining someone stole two million euros on the pretense of buying medical equipment we both understand the reasons you have to say it's hardly a great indorsements of the current president of the european union's who admits to thinks it won't be able to build a new hospital for another five years anyway it'll all be too late for florian and denise are they watching their baby son die in front of their eyes killed by corruption largely al-jazeera book or rest. apartment building has collapsed in the syrian city of aleppo killing eleven people including four children

a five story block was damaged during years of war many other buildings around the city are also on the brink of falling apart. and in southern syria tens of thousands of people are trapped at the rock. a calling on the un to provide safe passage the rebel controlled areas in the north the campus essentially a no man's land where the borders of syria jordan and the rock meets jordan has called for it to be dismantled and harder reports from berets. almost fifty thousand syrians among them some rebel fighters have been trapped in this makeshift camp for years. there is nothing to sustain normal life in this remote desert area where the syrian iraqi and jordanian borders meet they're also besieged by syrian government forces but now they have another worry they fear for their safety. the u.s. decision to pull out of syria is causing concern because there are no safe roads for us to leave to the north where the opposition is in control very few don't want

to return to government controlled territory because they fear a rest and fourscore scription in the army. the campus within an area that's nominally under some u.s. control american troops are in the nearby town if base they are there to block a land bridge connecting to her on through iraq into syria and lebanon it's not clear if washington will give up the base once it would trust its troops from northeast syria. but jordan's call for the camps closure and the return of the displaced syrians to their villages is causing concern. we ask whoever can help us to open safe routes for people to leave either to government controlled territories or rebel held areas in northern syria or let people go wherever they choose but we need to get out of here. conditions in the camp make it unlivable at least eight children have died in december because. the lack of food and medicine the united nations says this is a manmade tragedy. but. the last time relief aid reached us

was two months ago and the u.n. promised that they would return in less than a month but they haven't come yet. it was in the member when aid reached for the first time in almost a year the united nations says it has verbal approval from damascus and moscow for a new aid convoy they're hoping to reach those in need in the next few days. camp lies within us russian agreed the escalation zone all sides accusing each other of hindering the delivery of aid the syrian government's siege of rock band is a tactic that has used in the past and rebel controlled areas to bring about a surrender this time however the united states is accusing damascus and its russian and iranian allies of using aid to pressure washington to leave it. there are reports the trumpet ministration plans to keep troops in kind of base to counter iranian activity despite its planned withdrawal from the north east

regardless the syrians and rock band will remain pawns as rival powers vie for spheres of control that is why they say they want to un guaranteed safe passage to the opposition controlled nourse senate. beirut. the number of people killed after a dam collapse in south eastern brazil has risen to more than one hundred twenty percent a wave of sludge through a mining area in the state of mina ask rares a week on at least two hundred people are still missing and mining waste is down moving towards a major river may contaminate water supplies. over the rising sea temperatures intense and that weather passes are becoming a daily part of life they've been forced to spend more money not only on protecting themselves but also on keeping their businesses afloat and now that a lawsuit is considering legal action against big polluters thousands of kilometers away as under thomas reports. warming see these mean fewer fish in the waters

around than a water so people are building fish farms in line instead it is very frustrating cost to build one fish farm is around fifteen thousand u.s. dollars there are other costs of climate change here more frequent sly clones mean big repair bills mitigation in preparation for disasters and rising sea levels also have big costs but it was his own contribution to global climate change is small even so it's doing all it can to reduce it further there are a solar farms and coconut plantations oil squeezed from coconuts can fuel generators as a clean way to make electricity one coconut will give you one liter of oil. with what we've got here it's fine now where if a t.v. program for a few coconut powered televisions will make little difference to the global climate

vanuatu's government believes the world's big polluters should compensate it for the damage that climate change does here and that if they won't voluntarily through treaties and agreements then they'll try to force them to through the threats of legal action the government is considering suing big polluting countries and fossil fuel companies we're working with a number of lawyers in different parts of the world who are also looking at our evidence base that we're going to need to prove in court that would be hard suing a company needs to happen in that company's national court giving them the home advantage taking legal action against the country means going to the international court of justice it only considers cases where the country being sued agrees to the case being heard but there is another avenue here that can take and that is to ask for an advisory opinion. and that isn't legally binding but it does set the

direction and it gives the world a sense of exactly how. the legal issues that i want to sleep is hope the possibility that countries will companies might have to pay compensation one day will increase their potential financial liabilities now scaring off investors unless they take action to minimize those risks so those legal action is the threats found a wall too would rather settle out of court after thomas al-jazeera pulled. a us state government has changed his story about a face which is causing a racism scandal most of them says he's not in the face twenty four hours after apologizing for where there could cost him a photo taken in one thousand nine hundred four has provoked increasing calls for the resignation of the democrats from the ginia my belief that i did not wear that costume or attend that party stems in part from my clear memory of all the mistakes i made in the same period of my life. that same year i did

hello and welcome again to rewind i'm dead. back in two thousand and six when we first launched al-jazeera english our goal was to seek out the sort of documentaries other channels simply weren't doing here on rewinds we're revisiting some of the best of them to find out how they came about and how the story has moved on today were rewinding to two thousand and twelve and a powerful film from the witness series about a palestinian family fighting eviction from their home in occupied east jerusalem as part of the expanding israeli settlement program of course a lot has happened in the six years since that donald trump's recognition of jerusalem as the capital of israel the palestinian struggle against jewish occupation back into the headlines for years jewish settlements had been

knew that my dream in the hospital and i told them my good man those with the grim and those with which. i was like screaming get the circulars and put. the doors we want leave. i feel like anger i feel so angered. been there. really said that all. not and about them that initial reaction of one of us are. still doing better if we were put off. i hate them for reason because. they make our los worst life endure.

of actually leading the walk on the field to the other it's. here with the pentagon eight tool. you know what kind of single thing wouldn't think. it was. one of the long ones are saying about going to go and shift it better you know the christmas the fun and there was the photo but not to tell me does much of the first part because i'm only. it's so obvious she told us it's going to thirty four. and the show must be. going where i'm not sure which of the look. and the sheer coats the lime. and others about them do a lot of the fun of my new look at me until someone at the show live. on out of the

state of my office who. is a. good game show what bank i am. doing i don't have the review. was in my money. scam even though she doesn't do much of it unfortunately on the money and then i don't have the money. i. think. of the program i only for it if it much because of the feel i'm the vote. for me and i think. you. don't wanna get

a lot of that. to do you. know what you were pushing for pay it in the deal give you the dominant money. back then. the easiest way is ok i mean. that's a lot of talk to have been a share of. well this world thing. with the of susette also. against the fascism and the new. stuff when i get one. or thank you. like.

this is. some of. you. last. season i'm always speaking of or have a good. surely. i don't. know. i mean going to shim should be an issue because of. the shit kind of thing to go into committee for. you but maybe they have i'm happy for you that. you got it i mean it was not that. i think. i know.

i don't owe. you that. i've. done it will work as i'm sure some follow you did soon and i'm sure she votes you on court as above has been other. groups but can this at. this point of him going to not come to my camp because of him of and for gold. oh my gosh it could be all of that of and. you know close to the feel. good like it was all my. and no one ever did it did a cool shabu dean honey bonamassa and. i think i'm the perfect example of somebody who preferred not to.

deal with this stuff and it's only because the kids forced me to like we did for you could they force feed back by their activities by their saying this is important this makes a difference you know it's the old where were you when something was happening you know stand up and be counted the better my father the political commercial killing . because i was really believe often now officially in the prenup police didn't object. to so good to me. but going to him and seeing. all this it. with the ship being shipped over going to the ocean i. will eat. meat. first choosing my side.

this one. more. mushroom. some shit should be about the about money yeah i mean for the bin. me or. my. i have to say i'm not a big demonstration person whenever my children get arrested which was has some degree of regularity. i have a very very difficult time doing is a very bad memories for me it. is not that much of a she. still. looks. like. there. was

a crush on the child of all call survivors and. the few people in my family who survives were helped by as much as people we grew up very much knowing that it's. just and righteous and brave people can make a difference. since. i got the job. you know. and i think that's a message that we impart it's in our children. i think. if. i think they're living out this message in their own words and circumstances that are appropriate to what's going on in jerusalem or.

just like said she i shall not back to think. i don't youyou and i live about the boat. and the team you don't want to see him do a fantasy misstepped off his back or not and for a moment you can know you went off without it. but mcconnachie yes i have said they v.s.e. and some odd days wheelchair and no shield to visit the ministry my thoughts are mad but then silly as so many monkeys are the money on. the east from the lows of me i must be doing and the disappearance of the blood money. on those kind of kosovo killers has me.

go in court in the short look through the whole show to the. chemical own fish flavia's while he moved still think this woman. should go both. of you would be. a mix of the honeymoon doing some. things for them to notice that at the end of a theme. also what anybody says davy are full some new york. and they had a mission so it was out of tissue of many. that no one told. could now one. of them element the minister john.

a model. said to dawn wish that it. will have me. and emma and. i will try not to let. my neighborhood from two thousand and twelve a film with a powerful political message that we'll be talking more about in a moment but first i'm sure like us you're keen to know what's become of muhammad's well we caught up with him a few days ago a long way from jerusalem in atlanta georgia where he's at university studying for writing i want to be able to do my master's after i graduate and hopefully my ph d.

and my ultimate goal would be to do something very big for the police you know their case and maybe i'll start with being a university professor but hopefully i'll be able to do something very very big and palestine reverential people i want to become a writer they laugh at me because what grad is that going to buy what money is that going to get me who's going to take a writer seriously in palestine. if you really want to make a living in palestine you're going to be human a to build building settlements for israel. because in palestine janitor's a work and it's rated spaces make more than palestinian teacher my grandmother has been getting very thick and she has been losing her memory but as a as a writer i'm trying my best to. you know record and document were two notes of her because it's very rich and it's the story of the naacp and its story of the clintons and what's reported there one of the nari or do not even know all about

well mohammed and his family never did get their house spock even though a vixen stopped for several years in shifts on iraq but in two thousand and seventeen subtler started moving in once again we're now joined from new york by julia bossa who made sure of started off my neighborhood speaking of jerusalem how was donald trump's recent decision to recognize jerusalem as the capital of israel affected the prospects of families like muhammad's that we saw in the film it's hard to tell whether deep proclamation off trump is going to make life significantly worse for palestinians i think they really government was really sacked under own direction of the spacing palestinians whether president trump made display now cement or not i think certainly in terms of gaining clarity into international stage for where denied it states stands visa vi whether they can

really be a neutral moderator between palestinians and israelis that pronouncement makes it clear that the answer is no that it states is not in a neutral position to to really be able to help policy is in israelis reach peace through negotiations are we likely to see more violence in jerusalem so easy resilin has been targeted on a systematic process of displacement of palestinians by the israeli government and they go neighborhood by neighborhood targeting homes that they think are more vulnerable and easier to get a court ruling to get the palestinians out and move in a sattler see how policy means respond to what is happening right now on the ground is a question that activists. our a grappling with there are a lot of conversations happening particularly desir which marks the thirtieth anniversary of the first intifada around what lessons they can learn from that

uprising that took place in the late eighty's and one of the most successful movements to actually raise the question of policy in independence today to a national level and got very close to finding a solution to madrid and washington negotiations and so that activism that took the form mostly of nonviolent resistance strategies and also creation of peril of situations for the ultimate viability of a palestinian state those strategies are being revisited today by palestinians for you personally what sort of work are you doing on violence a resistance sure i'm a documentary filmmaker for the past fourteen years i've worked with a nonprofit called just vision bringing attention to palestinians and israelis who are using nonviolent strategies to end the occupation so we believe that sort of

regular media coverage of the conflict through its focus on violence and up nurturing an environment where violence becomes is seen as the most viable method for palestinians to get their costs in an international stage so we want to highlight the stories of individuals and groups and communities using nonviolent resistance and we continue to do that doing about so thanks for talking to us here on rewind thank you amounts of from us to join us again next week and do check out the rewind paid zero dot com for more films from the series before now thanks for joining us and syrian soon. rewind returns a can bring your people back to life from start with brand new updates on the best of al-jazeera documentaries in the living i was the focus of the us a no and the other student rewind continues with joseph's journey this is

cleric himself interim leader is demanding a new presidential election or latin america editor of the c. a newman reports from caracas. it looked and sounded like a carnival. as far as the eye could see answer an opposition leader call to increase pressure to force president nicolas maduro out. anyone else any other alternative is better than this government they've been in power for twenty years and done nothing but starve us. after years of frustrated attempts they feel changes in the air. this time is different because we have to help before the country's carnage. the last march we have to go to was. just hours earlier an air force general defected the first top ranking officer to do so since wide all

offered them an amnesty a stinging blow. at the military's of oil is crucial to his political survival. this is. getting to be. on the other side of president gathered his supporters. never give in to pressure from servants of the us empire as he calls the opposition one of the rejects demands for a new presidential elections he's offering an alternative. i agree that the legislature should be religious by the country and that we hold free elections with guarantees and may the people decide on the national assembly. want is for my.

self proclaimed interim president announced his next move the imminent arrival to the border of humanitarian aid in israel is most needy i say that earlier al-jazeera asked him if he army would. allow the aid to cross into venezuela from neighboring colombia and brazil. i hope that the patriot takes over in soldiers who respect the constitution will withdraw the support of majority and give it to the people of venezuela who need food. as the power struggle continues all eyes will soon be on the border to see how this. latest challenge to the embattled government plays out to see in human al-jazeera. so who's backing who in the venezuelan political crisis while the current president nicolas maduro has the support of at least six countries including russia china bolivia and cuba the opposition leader one fido has the backing by eighteen nations including the u.s. u.k.

and ten latin american countries the e.u. also wants to see why those take power and has given maduro until sunday to call a new presidential election where millions of venezuelans have fled the country is deepening economic crisis in recent years many of them have also held protests in their host countries. reports from bogota in neighboring colombia where one million venezuelans have sought shelter. far from home but close to the fight against president nicolas maduro thousands of venezuelans abroad joining their fellow countrymen protesting inside been used in countries across the americas in europe this was the scene in madrid central seoul square they chant we want freedom they are. the signs read no more maduro and peace justice and democracy in venezuela. in capital santiago the demonstration was led by wearing. the woman chosen to

represent when this were less parallel government there but the leader of the opposition and so for a claim the interim president why don't. you know office whalen's are dreaming of a return to venezuela we are very grateful to chile which has welcomed us in a very nice way of returning to finish its archery a dream that those protesting in santiago say requires an end to my due to its government. we ask this government to leave today we want support so humanly pedi and aid can come and we can return to our country. but in three million venezuelans fled the economic and political crisis in their country since two thousand fifteen in search of food work and maybe seeing venezuelans protesting you could be the country that has received most refugees said it was their duty to continue putting pressure internationally can be in step way those challenge tonight and the latest

sanctions imposed by the united states will force them to step down then i think this is the only way and finally we found a way ok bring it up from my doodle as we speak take the ship ok there's a renewed sense of optimism and hope among the venezuelan diaspora the feeling that they say that third a first time regina change in venezuela is truly within reach i listen that i'm just. a peace deal has been agreed aimed at ending six years of fighting between muslim and christians in the central african republic government leaders struck the deal with fourteen armed groups after a week of talks in sudan backed by the united nations on the african union fighting has killed thousands in the c.a.r. and displaced hundreds of thousands of others so an alliance of muslim rebels known as the seleka overthrew president francois governments in twenty thirty in a few months later rebel leader michel djotodia was sworn in as interim president

he was forced to resign after fighting between the seleka and christian fighters known as the anti balika continued and the un sense of peacekeeping force to support african union and french forces already there since then cease fires have been signed and violated and all sides have been accused of war crimes mohamed joining us from khartoum so as usual the devil is in the detail mohamed what do we know about this peace agreement. that's right daryn we know already that they have agreed on two major points to a long week of difficult discussions on those points are the creation of an inclusive government and an amnesty to the warlords this particular point about amnesty to the warlords has been very difficult in terms of the discussions between the different sides but now they say they have agreed on it but as you said we don't have the details about how many of those warlords who what names and so on

and what is the basis on which. will be created of the the world itself will be pardoned within the framework of this agreement an agreement that has been proposed by the african union and supported by the united nations hosted by sudan but it is not the first time this happens seven at least seven agreements of this kind had been agreed on in the past but soon to be violated now the hope is that this one can hold because. probably it is the first time that all of the arab league the fourteen rebel factions are represented in the persons of their main leaders that gives hope to the central african people after years of bloodshed and after more than one million people have either been displaced killed or displaced or forced to leave the country we also know that the two presidents of sudan and the central african republic according to the information we have right now are going to attend

this ceremony to give it more importance it is going to be signed within a few hours from now in khartoum. valor with an update from khartoum thank you for a manager is an assistant professor at george washington university and she says achieving peace in the central african republic will provide stability for the surrounding countries as well. they're at a point now where the peace agreement a lot of it was also hoping for they hadn't seen that yet though the u.n. security council or the government wanted to have the embargo the arms embargo lifted it was unanimously agreed to to extend that embargo for at least one year from today to see how this peace agreement works out but i mean it's not it's not a very volatile time but there's there's high hopes because the first time that there's been direct talks with all of these these different players fourteen militia groups of course as well as the government the u.n. with their their mission there as well as the african union are looking to come to

some sort of agreement because at the end of the day the central african republic is very very very should teach it in the region its neighbors of course see dad abers the democratic republic of congo which is also seeing you know some issues after their election results that came at the beginning of last month so it's really a power player in the region and hopefully we're at a point we can see some stability. yemen's warring sides are holding talks aboard a boat in the red sea in an attempt to save the fragile for they the cease fire the meeting between the saudi u.a.e. backed government and hold the rebels is being chaired by the un's outgoing monitor retard does general patrick that sides are discussing how to implement a peace agreement reached in sweden last year called for a withdrawal of forces from the strategic port city monitoring these talks as al-jazeera as correspondent has some how about a joining us here in the studio i suppose the first question is what is the rationale behind holding the meeting on

a step in the red sea because initially the start to do over the last few weeks to meet in the data it didn't work the. convoy came under fire and creating a huge political crisis that eventually at the end led to his quote to his resignation about how to implement the majority of the deal when it comes to the presence of another nation is monitors but also who should pull out from those areas and this is in a way or another the bottleneck of the of the negotiations now of the host is willing to put off from the data and who's going to take over they say that they will not allow the government or president abbas will hardy to take over the data and these these balls and this is why we have a huge problems as we speak now about that agreement so do you expect any momentum then to take place as these meetings happen well from when you see the safe was coming from both sides both these are saying that.
