will bring you the news and current of things that matter to. al-jazeera. zero. hello and welcome to the sound is there a news hour live from doha on martine dennis coming up in the next sixty minutes the trumpet administration is accused of ignoring legal objections while trying to sell nuclear technology to saudi arabia. the president of pakistan administered kashmir tells al-jazeera there's a real risk of conflict with india after last week's bombing in the disputed region . at twenty four hour window closes the syrians to get out of

a desolate camp find out why they didn't take the opportunity. and for years after nigeria's president promised to clean up this own mess we look at whether failure is will hurt his reelection. and i'm we're hard in here with all of your sport mail me osaka lost her opening match in dubai letting us in on just how much pressure she's under as the tennis world number one. now in the united states an investigation has been launched into the way the trumpet ministration has been trying to sell sensitive nuclear technology to saudi arabia a committee in the house of representatives led by the democrats says whistleblowers of wool and that cool for being put ahead of the law mike hanna reports now from washington. the twenty four page report is extensive and reach in detail providing

names dates and specific communications relating to u.s. nuclear technology in saudi arabia the oversight committee under representative elijah cummings based the report on what it calls whistleblower accounts evidence provided by career officials within the administration deeply concerned about what would appear to be a deeply corrupt process circumventing congress what is surprising us is the scope of u.s. government officials. directly involved and business to business talks. the way out this close and potential economic interest in the work that they were doing and that is certainly what is new among those named in the report to president trump's son in law and adviser jared cushion or who refinanced a deeply indebted new york building with a company called brookfield business partners which had just acquired a nuclear services company westinghouse electric under scrutiny as well question

his ongoing relationship with the saudi crown prince mohammed bin solomon. and central to the report longtime trump supporter and one time national security advisor michael flynn who the report says was deeply involved in pushing a nuclear plan for saudi arabia that included the construction of as many as forty saudi nuclear plants the report says michael flynn was a paid advisor to a company known as i p three international during the presidential campaign through the transition period and even while serving as national security advisor the report ends on february the twelfth that is last week president trump participated in a white house meeting with private nuclear power developers initiated by i p three international and as a democrat led oversight committee commences

a large scale investigation the question is whether house republicans will commit to it as well mike hanna al-jazeera washington. donald trump has worked to cultivate an ever closer relationship with saudi arabia since taking office it was the first country went to after being sworn in as president in twenty seventeen and he often boasts about arms sales to the kingdom including an apparent deal worth one hundred ten million dollars but this figure many analysts say is actually misleading president trump is also opposed to efforts in congress to end america's unpopular involvement in the saudi u.s. led war in yemen and the president continues to stand by mohammed bin sound man despite a cia assessment that the crown prince ordered the murder of saudi journalist jamal khashoggi well the iranian foreign minister he made reference to jamal khashoggi as he weighed in tweeting first

a dismembered journalist now illicit sale of nuclear technology to saudi arabia fully expose half stagg u.s. hypocrisy well i've been speaking to rami curry a professor of journalism at the american university of beirut he says the latest investigation shows a growing anger among u.s. politicians at the way don't trump has handled the case. the really important point here is that you now have a congressional committee led by democrats in the house of representatives where the majority is democratic officially investigating. inner workings of the white house dealing with members of trump's family has some outlaw question are his top advisers linked to business dealings with saudi arabia and in some cases with the emirates in a context of concern in the democratic controlled house of representatives that the

u.a.e. and saudi arabia have been for several years trying to influence american policy through business relationships so this closes a very difficult circle for trump and is the beginning of a really important phase of an official investigation what you have to look at also is the wider context here which is that there is deep congressional anger especially among democrats but also among some republicans about the way that trump has handled the situation of the murder and dismemberment of the late jim after sugary and there is also congressional anger about the u.s. involvement in the war in yemen that the u.a.e. and the saudis are. undertaking so this just adds more difficult pressure on the white house coming from official congressional bodies that's the real problem that the white house now faces now the leader of pakistan administered kashmir has told out there he fears says

a risk of war with india after last week's attack in the disputed region forty one indian paramilitary soldiers were killed in the car bombing the pakistan based armed group jaish e mohammed claimed responsibility a correspondent has sat down with massoud kong a short fly again. we reject the allegations that the indian government has made and we all saw denounced the kind of frenzy that indian ruling party and the extremist groups have ripped up there in india and the kind of anti pakistani. sentiment that they're ripping up there is a very very negative and this is pushing the two countries to the brink of war and we are against this kind of warmongering the other reaction that i want to give is that there is a bigger reality there is this incident of course and pakistan has denied any responsibility. but at the same time i would like to say that there is

a bigger reality there and the bigger reality is that for the past seventy one cheers midis have been brutalized and about half a million kashmiris have been killed in the past. seventy one cheers and killing are continuing people are being tortured and maimed and blinded and women not being raped by security forces or these occupation forces so this incident should not be made to clips did the bigger reality what is the aspiration of the people of jammu and kashmir for self-determination for liberty and for freedom however the indian government says that the pakistani intelligence agency the i.s.i. is to blame because they accused them of allowing zation one hundred to operate under the radar for quite some time and providing them with bases in pakistan gesture muhammad is outlawed banned. and therefore their allegation their

accusation is false and it has a purpose because they want to divert attention from the horrendous situation prevalent in the indian occupied kashmir so instead of addressing this situation they are changing the story they. changing the india let me also tell you that there was some diploma in the recent past in the recent years there has been some diplomatic build up in regard to this situation jim when push me last year there was this report issued by the office of the high commission of listing all the human rights violations and crimes against humanity which are being committed by all the years in service as a virtue thousand and eighty was the bloodiest yes it was in currently a year but they also mentioned here rights violations on both parts of the. mia the belong to different categories simon we know enforced disappearances and they are not arbitrary detentions there's no incidence of torture there no sexual violence

has been used so you can't compare the two situations if the u.n. is to step in how to move forward towards a united nations resolution what do you think should be the terms of a resolution the united nations has to responsibilities one is to implement the resolutions which are passed. in the one nine hundred fifty s. or are you talking about the forty the most militarized zone in the world see if you talk about an area where two rivals fought three wars you're talking about the potential for an explosive situation. a case for the u.n. to contain this particular crisis as we speak now what do you think should be the framework of this resolution so this is the second thing that the united nations can do i think that the united nations secretary general and the united nations security council and the board must get an wall and broker some sort of. deal between the two countries if you don't call it a dean deed at least it should try to deescalate the situation because this is the

responsibility of the united nations to remove any threats to international peace and security and. there is a very serious threat to international and regional peace and security in the region. all right now let's get the other side of the equation we can get the view from new delhi correspondent says jamail is that the pakistanis seem to be placing quite a lot of emphasis on un involvement in the un's role in in terms of deescalating the current situation how might india respond to that. martine there will respond the same way they always do the short answer is no india no matter what party has been in power has always flatly refused any third party intervention in the kashmir dispute they say it's a bilateral issue strictly between them and pakistan and pakistan on the other hand

as we've just heard is trying to get the u.n. involved as trying to get other countries involved india has always refused they say that it's no one else's business but them in pakistan and in meantime they're putting pressure on pakistan internationally to try to get isolation for box and diplomatically and economically over this attack and they're still continuing that they said if the international community and the u.n. really wants help india says they need to punish pakistan and put these armed groups in box a territory on terrorist watch lists right ok now this is a particularly heightened moment in terms of india as it prepares for its elections how is this is seen which is quite highly charged at the best of times how is it playing out in this tree election period. well yes it is heavily charged at the best of times but any government seems to be

taking even tougher stance now elections are in april they're coming up very quickly here so india has been the government has been very big on their ports that there won't be any talks that they want action be done but people in india are very upset about this there's been a lot of protests on the streets online and you know they are supporting the government stance even though even the leader of india's opposition party the congress party says we are with the government so they're not getting any big political pushback on this issue now the media has also been covering all this pushing the same narrative and many marys in india have told us that they're now being targeted partly because of that coverage they're getting threats from local mobs some of them had to leave their jobs their schools we spoke to one individual that says in ma group into his hostel and he left in for a bigger city like new delhi because it's where he felt safe and what's really

unfortunate is that students like him say they left here because of the conflict it wasn't safe for them there and are studying at indian universities and now because of beenz they are feeling that they have to go back to me or just to be safe. fez jamail our correspondent live in new delhi thanking the dozens of trucks carrying women and children and now leaving the last remaining i still held pocket in a sense syria the u.s. backed syrian democratic forces e.s.c.'s say they expect to recapture the village of bugaboos from the armed group within days it's been a around three hundred ossified says that they were using civilians as human shields and holding them hostage. meanwhile in southern syria the other end of the country a twenty four hour window to allow people to leave a remote refugee camp has now passed but no one apparently used these corridors that was set up by the russians the rock band camp is in the syrian desert near the

border with jordan and iraq forty thousand people have been enduring terrible conditions there with little food and medicine well some of explain why they didn't use these corridors to leave. but i knew about the source of what i was going to see the crossings opened by the regime and the russian military police are claimed to be safe but the people here are not feeling any safety or stability people here feel as if they are drowning and looking for anything at all to rescue themselves the road to the camp has been cut. the people don't believe that these crossings are open to. me but. i am for me personally if i leave it would be only to go from one day a trap to another if i found a safe place for maine my kids and my family i would go to this is not opening the crossing is a good step but we wanted to be overseen by the un because of lies we have been told before nobody believes these crossings are safe. are we can do it to our

correspondent now imran khan he's in gaza and that's in southern turkey right on the border with northern syria so let's start geographically to the places closest to you and that's what's going on in baghdad yesterday the u.n. issued some sort of concern about the two hundred families also that were there now we're hearing that some of them at least have been able to leave. that's right what we're hearing is least ten trucks of picked up women and children and move them out of the area whether that's a result of ideal between syrian democratic forces who have pockets that. in itself is unclear or whether these people are able to get out to the outskirts of the village and that's where they've been picked up but this does mark a turning point in the ground assault by the forces was lost on clay it's ground to a hope for

a little while because of the civilian traps that now. is they're actually hiding in tunnels underneath the village the vast majority of the villages actually been destroyed and there are few tents where those civilians were on the outskirts of the village so now it looks like the they are able to leave if they are able to leave and they all that all of the civilians actually leave the entire area itself what that means is the assault can go into the village and it's likely that the s.d.f. will. attack in the coming hours ride to the other end of the country now in this remote part of southern syria where we understand about forty thousand people have been living in desperate conditions for several years now some courage as a parent courage all set up by the russians for them to escape if you like when it's taken up by these people why.

well that was. the russians. in the free syrian army go back to the u.s. who actually control. it's unclear why the russians and the syrians. actually negotiate with the people who are in control and allow people to come out of the camps fifty five to. fifty five to where they're actually now what we're hearing from sources and from people who is that perhaps the russians and the syrians. say that they actually do respect human rights and humanitarian issues and they want to help but others are saying well actually there may have been some negotiations going on between the free syrian army and the russians and the syrians they may have broken down but the russians and the syrians opened up the corridor anyway so most people within. the situation is absolutely

died of people food. cooking and the some forty thousand people that and the vast majority of people you do speak to say we would like to leave where they go how it is. a question in the past we have seen. people leave one refugee camp only to go to another refugee camp where they help you fold are allowed to go home. whether they've been completely. going back to nobody has. it was a twenty four hour window that was open that window came to a close at nine am local time this morning and we haven't heard from the russians old the syrians about whether they're going to extend it as we've seen in the past . reporting live from. lots more to come on this al-jazeera news hour including from lifesaving treatment to minor ailments venezuela's crisis forces people to seek treatment anywhere but at

last. i'm when hey in phnom penh where one of the strongest economies in the world is expected to continue its growth this year but we'll tell you why this concern about a particularly vulnerable section of society. and its payday of the padres find out about their record three hundred million dollars signing lira we'll have that and the rest of the sports teams. now egypt has executed nine people who were convicted of assassinating a top prosecutor all were found guilty of taking part in the bombing that killed his shambat a cat in two of the fifteen six others had their death sentences commuted to life in prison the government blamed the attack on the muslim brotherhood and girls are based hamas but both have denied involvement. that's saying that about me is in

egypt resetter at amnesty international he's based in tunis in tunisia he says death sentences are handed out despite prisoners being tortured into confessions it will always be a monument of shame for their actions or just to have executed men after a completely on our free trial completely unfair trial were where people convicted based on confessions that were extracted under torture were extracted while songs that were forcibly disappeared and worse the defendants were not afforded any sort of trial or recourse to defend themselves properly so it will always be when you seem for they have some sort of these and it really falls orton's ongoing execution spree stories have been going through so because this is a fifteen's the fifteen minutes have been a futile and listen a month into something the nineteen basically so the international community must

speak strongly and very strongly about on going to execution speed because if they don't. speak out against this excuse and species and we fear is that more and more exclusions will continue to have been and sensational sources will not be deterred from. from getting more excuses after unfair trials and basically when we say international community we are referring specifically to egypt and say opinion you know is egypt is a us and. united nations in union as an institutional. venezuela's military has reaffirmed its loyalty to him battle president nicolas maduro ignoring calls from the opposition leader and the u.s. president to switch sides venezuela's defense minister vladimir padrino says the armed forces will remain in position along the border with colombia soldiers are

blocking u.s. aid from coming into the country in war if you want to search in our sanction us if you want to blackmail us blackmail us but you want to achieve your mission what you want to achieve it will take the sanctions will listen to blackmail but will definitely remain with the homeland with our home but stop the manipulation already and say that this is an issue of a political even personal nature. well venezuela's health system system is pretty much on the point of collapse the severe shortages of both medicine and staff like doctors many have to go elsewhere to get the care they need like to brazil where we have our correspondent mohammed germ jim he's at a refugee shelter in the border town of vista and mohammed we have become accustomed perhaps to the fact the venezuelans go across the border to colombia but to brazil as well how many and how often are they coming.

well martine at this stage there's roughly between six hundred to eight hundred venezuelans per day that are crossing from venezuela into brazil now first they cross into a town that's about two hundred kilometers north of us just on the border an ass called pocket i'm then many of them are transported or make their own way here to bo vista which is the capital of how i'm a state in northern brazil here you have twelve different shelters for venezuelan migrants and refugees we are in one of them right now on down to it houses around five hundred venezuelans on average now what we've seen the past few days is again and again tales of patients from venezuela who had very simple maladies that most places in the world could be treated very easily but because the health care system is on the brink of collapse in venezuela even though many of them wanted to stay in venezuela they had to make that crossing they had to muster up

whatever money they could to try to get here to brazil and get treatment we spent a lot of time in the house i'm at general hospital speaking to many of those patients here's our report. free a live body but full of spirit rafael majorca exudes the kind of calm determination most people in his condition would find hard to muster. before being transported to this hospital in neighboring brazil the thirty year old venezuelan was at death's door and while he's still extremely weak he's also much improved on those few thousand miles wide that is sexy he had skin rashes pneumonia and all of his conditions would derive from his diabetes which was uncontrolled that's most probably because access to things like insulin is writ and venezuela is on. insulin a medication for diabetes patients readily available in most countries the world over but ron failed whose aunt watches over him now do. she had prayed over him

when he was in a coma wasn't so lucky i've been afraid in venezuela we can't get anything life just isn't good we can't get medicines we can't get insulin nothing else stayed there he wouldn't be alive today. for the time being rafael is unable to speak but he is communicative his doctor who studied medicine in venezuela still finds it hard to believe things have gotten so bad in her patient's homeland and i had to go when i was a student venezuela had to acknowledge that we couldn't find in brazil not just equipment but also medicine we now see that in only a few years the house system deteriorated to the point that they don't even have the most basic needs. in this relatively poor part of brazil the influx of so many venezuelans in need of medical care has put further strain on the area's already stretched healthcare facilities walking through crowded corridors of where i'm a general hospital the director general shows me how they no longer have space for

all the patients sadly rafael is one of many venezuelans at this hospital suffering from a medical condition that should have been easily treatable another stark reminder of the near complete collapse of the health care system in venezuela. before coming to brazil thirty four year old bootsy cordoba kept going to see the doctor about the pain in his abdomen he was assured many times it was nothing serious but months after arriving here in the city of boa vista he got the proper diagnosis appendicitis and an old server and i mean that it job in a salon it's a shame venezuelans have to leave the country we will because of the economic situation and because of the lack of medicines for illness and go to other countries who receive us with the friend bruce. some may call it an embrace others may call it treatment for many ailing venezuelans though it's a much needed road to recovery they simply cannot find at home. now

martine brazil's government has been steadfast in insisting the past several weeks that they would be trying to coordinate some type of aid delivery to venezuela finally confirmation came last night from the presidential spokesman he told assembled reporters that starting saturday february twenty third brazil was going to be coordinating cooperating with the united states to get aid to venezuela the system as we understand it is that there will be some type of aid distribution center that trucks organized by the venezuelan opposition by the opposition leader why don't we'll cross into brazil pick up that aid comprised of medical supplies and food stuffs and then. take it back into venezuela and distributed among the people of course this is the plan that could be riddled with complications we're just going to have to wait and see what happens but as of now brazil has been very much indicating that they understand how much of

a habit how difficult the situation is in neighboring venezuela and that they really want to help martine mohammed reporting live from. thanking. i it is time for us to catch up with tropical cycle and rub it. off the coral sea this thing's been around to now of weeks bothering vanuatu recently new caledonia they're heading for australia this is the satellite picture then for about the last couple of days just see a mess of clarity with the they are hanging around new caledonia now more recently has drifted away it's been raining and blowing a gale of new caledonia but they've been used to that now for a couple of days that the the course this thing has taken suggests it doesn't really know where it's going it's got no steering wind which isn't unusual it's been typical of the last two or three in this area this season so that was the course with a loop in it it's current conditions where it's quite windy gusting two hundred sixty kilometers per hour is generated waves of eight or nine meters but certain

generation of ways i think is going to be telling not so much where it is now where it's probably going to say is forward courses and a little bit of debate but you can see it's spread it's cloud over a science as far as north on the new zealand but that's not where we're going to have a look at brisbane the closest city currently it's already got high tides and battering waves they're actually building a barrier they have a seawall against quite possibly what can be rather nasty conditions there is a hazardous surf warning already for this part of australia and you can possibly see why from the forecast. rob thank you very much indeed still to come here on the al-jazeera news hour a new app which is literally providing life in war torn yemen we'll meet the man who created it. displace him britain's governing body three m.p.'s defect to a new independent group. and coming up in sports practice makes perfect in the form

where to go and we'll go explore an abundance of world class programming designed to inform much of eight and inspiring brilliant people are truly afraid the world is watching on al-jazeera. all right time for a second of the top stories here in the out of syria news a senior aides in the trumpet ministration have been accused of trying to sell nuclear technology to saudi arabia ignoring legal objections a committee in congress is investigating the allegations and the iranian foreign minister is denounced all of these allegations as quote u.s. hypocrisy the leader of pakistan administered kashmir has told there he fears is

a risk of war with india after last week's attack in the disputed region on the indian paramilitary soldiers were killed in a suicide car bombing the pakistan based armed group jaish e mohammed claimed responsibility. dozens of trucks carrying women and children are leaving the last remaining eisel held pocket in eastern syria the u.s. backed syrian democratic forces e.s.c.'s say they expect to recapture the village of bugs from high school within days a british teenager who joined syria when she was fifteen years old is going to lose her u.k. citizenship begum was one of three girls from east london who went to syria in two hundred fifteen it's reported an order has been made by the home office to remove her citizenship just days ago she gave birth to a son in a refugee camp in syria her lawyer has indicated that he will fight the decision.

three politicians have resigned from the governing conservative party this is in the u.k. over what they describe as the prime minister's disastrous handling of bret's it the women say they're joining a new independent group made up of labor politicians who left their party over breakfast and anti semitism now this all piles of pressure on prime minister to resign may as he struggles to get parliament to approve withdrawal deal before brecht's it actually happens on march twenty ninth let's go live to our correspondent in london paul brennan hole first of all there were seven labor party members who defected from their party then there was an eight these are all labor party members of formally said now they've been joined by three members of the conservative party what's going on. well there's a huge i said there is

a groundswell among disillusioned m.p.'s i hesitate say huge we'll wait and see just how big this groundswell becomes who are unhappy with the mainstream parties in the u.k. and the way the bracks it has been negotiated they're unhappy with the prime minister's stance this kind of my deal or no deal kind of position of the prime minister has stuck to ever all these months only now or slightly amending it to a kind of updated deal or no deal and of course on the left of politics the labor party an opposition party which to some labor m.p.'s appears to be acquiescing with the government pushing for bricks instead of opposing bricks it which is what many labor m.p.'s would like to see the impact of this well that's open to question i mean if these were new m.p.'s who are coming in then given the very tight arithmetic of the british parliament and the fact that theresa may the prime minister is in charge of a minority government to relies on the small democratic unionist party to get

legislation passed you might think it to be significant i think the reality is a little bit more nuanced than that these are independently minded m.p.'s who have switched their political flag and i don't think changing the flag of allegiance that they're voting on there will actually change their votes they're still going to oppose bracks it in its forms right so will it change the arithmetic of votes i don't think so all right paul well we understand that sarah less than one of the conservative m.p.'s and his left the party as is currently told he now let's just have a listen to what she's saying thank you very much for. this really who are we really miss said that there we see the conservative party this is on the c.v. in fact listen to her she's bad. he has been very good to me i've been elected three times to represent the people for up stairs than them. and i'm very grateful

for the support and the hard work of a small team of activists mostly members of broxtowe conservatives they know who they are. friends and family who neighbors meet with i served in two governments as the minister of health the first woman m.p. defense minister and in twenty fifteen i was promoted to attend cabinet as business minister i rejoined the party in two thousand and two to a welcome that just the desperately needed modernization of the conservatives took shape i was a single mother of two children i'd worked in television as a reporter and a presenter and then spent sixteen years as a criminal barrister in my home city of. the c.v. there perhaps the most senior of all of those conservative party members of the left giving her explanation as to why she's left the party paul brennan our correspondent is still there for us we're talking about eleven. days in total does

eleven constitute a new political party poll it doesn't at this point in time listen just lets just a touch of what on a subaru spoke about what she's complaining about the reason the motivation for her and the other two giving up the conservative whip as it's called is the fact that they in their resignation letter detail the fact that the conservative party in their opinion has gone backwards she said she joined the party that was going forward progressive and she feels that because of press it it's gone backwards and she complains about how it's become beholden to certain elements entryism it was called infiltration of the party by smaller groups which then tried to take it over she's really referring there to the european research group jacob riis mocks group of m.p.'s who kind of held the government around some of a certain aspects of it does this eleven though to answer your question constitutes a new party officially not yet. will it difficult to say don't forget these are

from the boat either side of the house labor and conservative unified by the issue of bracks it and the dissolution of the way the depressions government has proved as progressed with this and by the way labor has not really opposed this can they unite under a single manifesto and fight an election that's a very different thing indeed and there are critics who question whether the survival of these eleven m.p.'s will go past the next general election whether they'll be to be selected by their constituencies i think the crucial issue now will be whether these eleven act is an inspiration to other m.p.'s at this crucial critical time of the breadth of negotiations and get more people to rally behind them and express dissatisfaction with the conservatives and particularly with labor stance and perhaps force general calling for example to change his attitude towards a people's votes if there are more people that kind of snowball behind this eleven the prospect of a people's vote you might argue could be raised thanks very much indeed for that

pool in just one day before we move on to something else and that is that sarah will listen one of those former conservative m.p.'s she has said that a second vote a people's vote about e.u. membership should be part of the agenda anyway let's move on now to the next subject which is russia's president. who is warning the united states against stationing its missiles in europe he was speaking in his annual address to parliament and that moscow was not looking for a confrontation with washington after both countries pulling out of a cold war era arms treaty earlier this month but mr putin said russia would respond to any u.s. deployment. russia will be forced to create and develop weapons that can be used not only towards those territories that would threaten us directly which is good also against the decision making centers that are behind that the missile systems which threaten us. a new phone app to link patients with blood donors is helping

many in a country suffering from four years of war but one of the biggest problems now is storage hospitals and health centers have few facilities and getting the blood to those who need it in time is proving a huge challenge needed abraham reports. when a brain cutoff learned his blood type was the right match he rushed to help the patient i know you girl. her family called him after he joined a new blood donation app called wedding. was suffering from cancer and diabetes and other diseases call me for help i register my number in the app and people can just call me directly ask where they're based and go to donate blood. the app connects those in need of blood to the closest donors. is an engineering student and came up with the idea after his friend was diagnosed with cancer and needed a transfusion. to work offline as the entire database can be downloaded on the

users if the person is in need of blood a donor with the same blood group can be easily found in contact at any time. i think this is vital in a country at war where the internet often does not work during food or years of conflict yemen struggle to keep its hospitals and clinics open many have been destroyed and with a growing number of patients the health system continues to deteriorate and. i cannot even afford the means of transportation to the hospital as a result of an air strike my wife died and i have shocks of a kidney failure i have seven children to feed and house rent to pay i am helpless only god knows my situation. of not living in a new app is providing much needed help and there are many donors but the real difficulty is finally a way to preserve blood needed for transfusions and get it to the patients before it's out of date. the war has made travel difficult and even if they should seek

a clinic there is no guarantee the blood will be available now there are fears that the main transfusion center in the capital sana'a may be forced to close. down and we have a supply of solutions sufficient for one week only and of no help is provided the center will come to a halt many patients and beneficiaries will be affected including those suffering from cancer kidney failure and fallacy me. apart from victims to the war. blood transfusion centers across yemen are facing familiar conditions leaving the sick and their families with nowhere else to go and bring him out as. nigeria's president mohammed bihari came to power four years ago with a promise to clean up the niger delta barters here temporary election it's still a mess of oil spills causing sickness for surrounding villages and destroying their
