my return to kosovo and the little village of book one decade on i've come back to find out what happened to those hopes and dreams we want on al-jazeera. civilians levi's cells last stronghold in syria the village of but could soon be recaptured by u.s. backed fight is. no i'm in london a very warm welcome to the program also coming up how social media is being used to target kashmiris living in india after last week's suicide bombing in indian controlled kashmir a lifeline for patients in a war torn yemen we look at the app that connects them with people willing to donate blood and pope francis prepares to hold a historic some

a stone it be used in the catholic church but fails to meet any survivors. i still want to control most of eastern syria and a third of iraq but it's now on the brink of defeat its territory reduced to a sliver of land that u.s. backed syrian democratic forces have started evacuating civilians from syria's eastern village of it's a sign that there could be an end to a standoff that's lasted more than a week several trucks have left the besieged enclave carrying men women and children it's believed eisel fighters use civilians as human shields will some five hundred fighters remain holed up in the area evacuated civilians are being taken to the camp in northern syria which has been the village of the damned camp a segregated one bought for ordinary citizens the other for suspected eisel families meanwhile further south on syria's border with jordan is the rock band

camp it lies inside the so-called de confliction zone set up by u.s. forces and as controlled by free syrian army rebels there are around forty thousand people mostly women and children living in the rock band camp they were given a twenty four hour window to leave by the syrian government and russia but many decided to stay because of safety concerns imran khan brings us the latest now from gaza in the turkey syria border. at least ten trucks have left the alba who's village pairing women and children now the civilians have been a real concern for both the united nations and the syrian democratic forces in effect both the united nations on the center and democratic forces say i see a using those civilians as human shields now it's in ices interest of keep the civilians there because it stops the s.d.f. from coming inside the village now the village most of it has actually been completely destroyed and the civilians and living in what is effectively tented camps in the outskirts of that village now given that they've now been able to

leave yes the ethyl very confident they'll be able to go in and deal with isis fighters now that the i suffices had a very long time to prepare for this fight they knew it was going to come at some point and they biased to dig tunnels and what we're hearing is a lot of those are suffices in those tunnels and still be a very tough fight for the syrian democratic forces now as i say whilst all this goes on we still have the situation in iraq up on camp on camp is controlled by the f.s.a. there is a no man's land effectively about fifty five kilometers before you get to these russian and syrian opened corydoras now these corridors so-called humanitarian corridors allegedly going to allow syrians in the camps mostly women and children to be able to go north however there's a real suspicion let's hear what a few people have sight 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 by richard i am for me personally if i leave it would be army to go from one death trap to another if i found a safe place from a my kids in my family i would guard finish it if that's not their fault opening the crossing is a good step but we wanted to be our the same by the un because i'm. lies we've been told before nobody believes these crossings are safe so despite the fact that there is a very desperate situation in the camp people are running low on food on oil of accommodation or water and they are living effectively on top of each other this is a very real situation of the russian and syrian motives. although the window came to an end not in this morning open for twenty four hours it's unclear whether the russians and the syrians will keep the corridors open for any longer. ella developments bangladesh's foreign minister says the british teenager who fled

london to join and who is in the other how can we mentioned earlier will not be allowed into his country on tuesday the u.k. move to strip shamima begum of her or her citizenship believing she was a jewel national with bangladeshi heritage and you are has more means finding clothes papers that relate to a decision taken by this is how nineteen year old should be blood that she was being stripped of her british citizenship from a copy of a letter from the british home office. begum is in a refugee camp in syria where she was discovered earlier this month and. in twenty fifteen she and two friends left the u.k. to join i saw in syria she married a dutch eisel fighter soon after arriving and to be living in isis last stronghold before arriving at the camp can i say to you i think it's british prime minister

said the decision to revoke citizenship would be carefully considered the overall point one of the friend makes is absolutely right which is how important it is for this government and this country to make very clear that we will take action against those who are involved in terrorism the british government can withdraw a person citizenship if they are deemed a security risk providing it doesn't leave them stateless it's believed begum has bangladeshi heritage and is eligible for citizenship but when asked about the case the country's foreign ministry said teenage begum is not a bangladeshi citizen there is no question of begum being allowed to enter bangladesh bacon's infant son is a british national by birth the british government says his rights unaffected. this is bethnal green which should mean the begum grew up an area with a large bangladeshi community in london's east end the case is divided opinion here

. there's just so many factors in this and i'm actually quite a bit torn to the one hundred it was the truth but this is a ship i want them to bring her in the baby ava but the other hand i'm like she did go away and she did join you know terrorists agree. only fifteen when she left for syria there were some including the former head of britain's foreign intelligence service m i six people leave the british society should be strong enough to give her a second chance others want her to come to the u.k. to stand trial to possibly face a prison sentence and enter into a deal rather colonization program. but she doesn't regret traveling to syria she's also described the twenty seventeen bunches serina bomb attack is justified retaliation the comments haven't won her much sympathy but one former senior police officer believes begum should be seen as a victim you know we took intimate sexual exploitation we were talking about individuals that were on the on the internet being radicalized parents had no idea whatsoever what was happening. but estimated nine hundred british nationals have

joined eisel but only forty of being prosecuted the government wants to send a tough signal to others hoping to return to the u.k. but every right or wrong decision the government makes sets a precedent for others. al-jazeera london meanwhile in the united states secretary of state might be an american born woman who joined i sill is no longer a u.s. citizen and will not be allowed to return to the country holding the son a says she made a mistake in joining the armed group in syria and now wants to return to america with her eighteen month old son but secretary. has no legal basis to claim american citizenship a lawyer for the woman's family says it was brainwashed online and could have valuable intelligence for u.s. forces.

the british prime minister's way out was to travel from london to brussels to meet the european commission president. and his chief negotiator michel barnier they did not shake hands for the cameras and in fact the fancy dress unicon protesters outside look more optimistic than the diplomats inside. no breakthrough was predicted and by the time the prime minister's convoy departed no compromise had been reached but there is a growing sense of time running out and some suggest that the emergence of the independent group will embolden other dissenters we don't know how it will impact. turns out it does make it look right now there's a new independent group but they'll make more independent action from other m.p.'s moreover the most likely perhaps the most interesting aspect of the resignations of these eleven am peace is not the individual grievances but the collective grievance that politics in the u.k. is broken and the political landscape dominated by just two main parties is ill

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 insulin a medication for diabetes patients readily available in most countries the world over but rough ale whose aunt watches over him now just as she had prayed over him when he was in a coma wasn't so lucky that i've been afraid that in venezuela we can't get anything life just isn't good we can't get medicine to come get insulin and nothing had verify all 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 even as whale is 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 ricci 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 boston he got the proper diagnosis appendicitis and an all sore and i mean. it's

of the hands of catholic priests bishops and cardinals on the eve of an unprecedented meeting on sexual abuse of the vatican they brought their stories to tell pope francis. speaking to journalists earlier in the day survivors explained what they wanted but zero tolerance if you've abused a child you're not going to be a priest anymore and if you've covered up for that abuse or. you two are not going to be a priest anymore. starting from when he was seven like i just saw and is abused by three different men but it was sexual assault i don't think i didn't really need to go into graphic detail but i was sexually assaulted by all these characters and while still having recovered in the physical sense it didn't have any long lasting effect on the what these creatures did to me i still actually have a weekly therapy session because it messes your mind up. it's abuse like this that

the vatican says it's determined to put a stop to and that the four day meeting is vital in impressing on senior clarity who've come from around the world that it's their shared responsibility to do so but although cardinals and bishops will hear video testimony from victims of sexual abuse no survivors is being given the chance to speak with her in person now so they were putting great importance on their expected separate meeting at the party but it didn't go as planned first of all pope francis wasn't there but made it very clear some of us that's not ok we're going to see victims see it as a sign of disrespect that the leader of the catholic church sent bishops instead this vatican summits on sexual abuse may be unprecedented in its size and its scope but survivors have still told us that they are skeptical that it's going to lead to any meaningful change and their experiences on wednesday of only reinforce that feeling for them the summit has got off to
