until next week the demonstrations are spreading beyond algeria and france with protests also in montreal new york and chicago well you reached out to some of the algerians protesting in france here's what some had to say and have just listened to and say we just needed twenty s. one nine hundred twenty s. and are struggling to education to just get basic right that we do have here in paris just money protesting here today it is a way to say ok we got you and when and how here no matter what because it's their destiny more than i was because we do live here but at the same time it's it's ours because it's our country. and that blocks our organs has been monitoring the internet activity since these protests started and this map shows that multiple destructions have occurred across algeria including in the areas of tissue and as the country continues to see knowledge demonstrations against the president's reelection and now it's raising concerns about freedom of expression well if you're

in paris or algeria we do want to hear from you if you are protesting elsewhere get in touch with us use the hash tag aging is great phase or a little fun to happen dolly's one of those protesters he is a member of the national council of the opposition party jegede he joins us via skype now from paris thanks very much for being with us. i want to ask you first of all these protests your involved in is it all about. these beautifully and him trying to run for a third term or is it much bigger than that is a bigger than him. yes and of course it's. forced to protest against the elective. that it is but it's not only because people are protesting and are against the horde system and the whole political system.

right now in nigeria since to some decades and young people. have only one hope is that two to make a change in nigeria and to not to make some more democracy and the rule of law in our conscience now obviously there is a very large french algerian community there but realistically how much do you hope to do how much of a difference do you have to make when you're when you're not in algeria. you know what to today the. ladies are around many many many thousand people around. this place of particular kim in paris and at the same time that is also on the protest in mar say into grooves and all over the main towns in in france but not also in that there is also. in new york and in canada new us at the same time today that means that people are protesting

and they wield. the will of the people or is to have. a contrary we lord democracy as i said and the freedom for express of expressions and freedom for . everyone let's talk a little bit more about that in what is the sense that you're getting from people inside our jury. about what daily life is like for them there and why why they're out on the streets now. yes because because of the people outside that area but also inside of course. the hope is is the same is to have a better and better countries and as you probably have seen most. people around. was a protest in very few sports very quiet and you know were. incidents are

no problem that have been there is just a dream in the twentieth the twenty second twenty five four and the february events and or so. two days before the first of march it was very. impressive and very big events and very successful events to demonstrate to our power and our governments that it's finished for record. and it's finished for this mate and corrupt system are you concerned about what the response might be from the government in algeria the longer these protests go on i mean judging by the pictures in the reports coming there it's been it's been relatively peaceful so far but as you know there is a history with these things throughout the arab world of the kind of heavy handed response from from government to protests like this are you concerned about them.

yes because of. our expectation or our goal is to have democracy and to have. freedom for expression freedom also for parties who truly do the. their job. as. if everything is everywhere even in the word but the reality right now is that the system is broke in order for the critics positions and or. freedom for a tool for all the kind of activities. and that we we're expecting or so is there because as you know today is the third of march and it's the deadline for the worse candidate who are very date or at least two. of the salafis the candidates the candidate we are expecting. some

looms during the day to have clear i hear it all on who will be called the date or no and after we reach we'll be the. relation and also. because. the date will have a big deal in the near future in a julia to manage real democracy to have to assess your. little bit structure and institution of course could speak to you factor been there joining us from paris thank you for talking to us after an interesting debate on algeria situation you can go to our web site again. al-jazeera dot com this episode of inside story looking into the possible risk of more political instability in the country now run another round of talks between the afghan taliban and the u.s.

have just ended for the day here in doha it is the highest level of meetings between the two sides since the war in afghanistan began seventeen years ago on the ground in afghanistan now people are dying in record numbers a u.n. report documented three thousand eight hundred civilian deaths in twenty eight hundred including nearly a thousand children that is the highest number killed since record keeping began ten years ago china ballasts has more from kabul. it's lunchtime when fifty eight year old mohammed hussein arrives to open a shop he sells drinks out of a container and the symmetry doesn't get busy until the afternoon but it's busier than it's ever been. every day we're witnessing burials here there is no space left on this hilltop we are suffering from these attacks the u.n.

says thirty eight hundred civilians including one thousand children were killed in afghanistan last year it's a record for mohammed those numbers come to life in the hills around him he's lived at the foot of the symmetry watching it expand for over a decade. it is very painful in a nightmare from now when they bring the bodies sometimes twenty thirty even forty to be buried. the u.n. says one of the reasons for the record number of civilian deaths is i saw suicide attacks that were particularly deadly last year and they often targeted the shia minority over here and western kabul resulting in a lot of people being brought up here to be symmetry which is quickly filling up. the u.n. report found the biggest killer of civilians was the taliban responsible for thirty seven percent of deaths the taliban rejects the un's finding somebody or struck on our last meeting of china allowed former taliban commanders in kabul spoke out

against it this week they laid the blame on afghan and international forces of the . reeds and killing innocent people people who reads people get killed in the streets. last year was the first on record that more than five hundred civilians were killed because of airstrikes mostly by international forces who say they do investigation review credible allegations of errors to learn and improve but in the blame game of the afghan war the un hopes they can be some accountability i think it's important that the stark reality of the costs of the conflict is put before the public and therefore does enter the calculations of those who are talking in that. endeavor to bring this conflict to a close it's a complex now and it's eighteenth year with everyone that passes the graves edge closer to the ridge line behind the statistics beneath the snow my children and

parents sunni and shia not fighters but killed by them just the same ballasts al-jazeera. almost stuck around him is a regional security analyst and he joins us now from kabul to talk more about this thanks very much for being with us so i want to ask you while these talks are going on here in doha between the taliban and senior u.s. representatives where does president bush afghani and the afghan government fit into all of this because of the moment obviously they don't and the longer this goes on the question is going to be asked about what what role they have in all of this and whether they're going to be included at some point. yes this has been an issue for the last almost five months that the taliban have been ignoring the afghan government and particularly president of any whereas the afghan government has been a dam and that the talks will only be legitimate if those are conducted with the

afghan government so dead has the next hour of political tussle going on between the taliban and the afghan government while they are well while the taliban are talking to the special envoy of the trump administration but one thing is quite clear that my family's that has been quite transparent in regard to having the peace dialogue between the of one government and the taliban and the tweet that he did. most recently he said that he is discussing forty gender points for the taliban one of which for my analysis does include the discussion about. talks between the afghan government and the taliban but as much as far as i analyze i believe the taliban will try hard to the. utmost possible level that the afghan government and rather getting gauged with the broader political polity talk

to the senior politicians such as former president hamid karzai and people around him whom they met last month in moscow as well and just to remind our viewers. that he just mentioned earlier there is the is the main u.s. representative he is the lees leading the talks with the taliban on the american side and my question is will the u.s. realistically agree to leave afghanistan completely. well of course i think they will leave as soon as they're dead sure of having the all the. i mean this is that challenge the security of the americans in the united states and elsewhere once they have their interest secured which is part of the genda right now in doha and secondly when they are sure of sustenance of the current investment that they have made on the afghan governance system the

promotion of human rights and all these things they will not let these investments go in when so that is what the discussion point is right now and i think taliban are also prepared to compromise on certain issues with the americans david drama schedule will be something that will be off consideration but it's separate. draw i think there won't be any other way because americans also have been quite clear in terms of having their forces sent back home now right now the discussion is that the taliban want a gradual drawdown but sooner rather than later and there have been talks in the western media particularly american media that there is a discussion at the pentagon that the timeline should be between three to five years i don't think collarbone will be added into that longer timeline but yes they will be withdrawing and people following this story will look at the did the kind

of optics of this of the moment because you have leaders sitting it across from each other at a table in doha talking about peace. meanwhile back in afghanistan it's looks anything but peaceful there's violence almost every day what what do you make of that. well there are two curious behind what's going on on the back to feed the first theory is that there must be some spoilers within the taliban ranks as well as regional countries who will make. every effort to ensure that get the peace talks detailed but in the meantime the other duty and which i also support is that whenever there are peace talks the in the as a matric warfare the guerrilla groups tried to in exert themselves influence the battlefield to go to the negotiation table and show that they still maintain the upper hand also let me remind you that the afghan government and the international

forces have been pushing the taliban back they have launched a number of military operations against the taliban which has put a lot of pressure on the taliban fighting outfit before fighting said segment of the taliban and in order to ensure and send back a strong message to the americans and the afghan government that no matter how strong you go against us on the military battlefield we can still continue and defend our positions so that is why they are seeing a sudden hike in spike in the fighting on the battlefield the targeted one of the military bases in the south in afghanistan the taliban which has this a lot of concerns among the general public but i see it part of the military come politic tactics so that they can on a bit of leverage on the negotiation table much talk about him thanks very much free time. now we want to hear from you on these stories you can send us your comments to any of our online platforms once again we're on twitter use the hash

to. do it in a good fit quick look at the stories trending on our website is it a dot com and as you can see that once again the ongoing. tensions between india and pakistan over kashmir getting lots of clicks a useful explaining their number one on kashmir is armed group so we're going to talk all about india and pakistan in just a moment. so it's all there for you on our website c.n.n. dot com. so there's been an exchange of fire between security forces and rebel fighters in indian administered kashmir indian soldiers launched an operation in northern baba good and to try to flush out groups meanwhile funerals have been held for some of the victims of the recent fighting in the disputed kashmir region at least seven people were killed on saturday in cross

border shelling between india and pakistan. let's get more on this now from sahara raman who joins us now from new delhi so. what is the latest that you're hearing there. yes but we're going to as you mentioned is actually a district within the much larger area of hundred that we've been focusing on certainly for the last three days at the end of the evening on thursday last week we began to hear stories about a gunfight between police officers and armed fighters that sort of got a lot larger in the sense that the fighters themselves were started to spread themselves across the area so the military were called in and for three nights certainly up to sunday we were hearing that while the area was cordoned off there was a cease fire in place there was still an ongoing pitched gun battle between armed fighters and military personnel several houses had been damaged some set on fire

and completely destroyed by sunday morning the military and the army had said that the operation that ended and that they had managed to eliminate those that they were after the body count so far is that for security personnel according to the indian army press office have been killed two armed fighters and one civilian and of course this all comes off the back of the suicide attack against indian military personnel in mid february that's really ratcheted up the tension that we've seen between india and pakistan india of course blaming non-state actors of being behind that suicide attack were the largest military personnel in indian administered kashmir the fallout of that is now occurring where the indian government sees a connection between the inspiration given to individuals to act in such

a way and they want to clamp down on that indoctrination. and several groups have come under scrutiny one which offers free education to some of the poorest members of the society and the most vulnerable they may soon be closed down for their days are numbered and we went to meet and. it's an early start for these students in srinagar they come to this religious school from some of the poorest families in the region this hot drink and snack is perhaps the only opportunity to eat on the cold winter morning many live in isolated villages and farms so it's a chance to see friends and catch up before classes begin however they may not be able to study here for much longer. the government has banned jamaat e islami that runs this religious school and many more like it in the region it says the group supports armed resistance against india and is a threat to the country's stability. student and their amatus says it's

a disappointing setback to his education. i want to do something in my life that benefits everyone i wasn't very religious and wanted to know how to pray correctly i was embarrassed that i couldn't answer questions about my faith this has changed partly the school has taught me social skills are to be polite speak to strangers and my elders with respect. late last month the central government banned jamaat e islami arrested scores of its leaders and sealed off their homes in indian administered kashmir there's been widespread anger in the community many feel muslims are being deliberately targeted and accused of being sympathetic to so-called terror organizations it's an accusation people here deny and say the government in new delhi is vilifying them for their faith and beliefs. regional politicians are now challenging new delhi you can't jail an idea not is an ideology it's an idea you can't you saw you know in a democracy is

a battle of ideas if you try to imprison everyone you can imprison the idea it is going to further alienate the people of kashmir this former head of india's external intelligence agency believe. me it has links with armed groups in pakistan the fact is that the german has been bad news for a long time. and whether there was a need to ban. i mean that there is. a government to decide. but some of the bad had needed to be picked up and that should have been one time ago this job market leader hasn't been arrested and speaking exclusively to al jazeera tells of his concerns because of the ban and if. bannard whole system will get stated and it will be a disaster for the needy and lot of people especially on the orphans and widows well there's been little shelling on

sunday and the attention certainly on the ground in kashmir has been reduced slightly that's given the head of the army. the opportunity to go and inspect his forces on sunday and the line of control and report back to new delhi and in another development they're going to keep a very close eye on on monday members of india's election commission are heading to sri lanka the state capital to discuss with local officials how they might conduct and work along the lines of the general election india is heading towards a national election will be a hot spot on so many fronts so help thank you is a hell raman in new delhi for us. our kurdish forces in syria say they are closing in on the last remaining i saw fighters in the village of black who's there they say they expect a quote decisive battle on sunday. u.s.

back syrian democratic forces launched the attack against the armed group on friday the remaining civilians were evacuated just hours earlier thousands of left in recent weeks they're being taken to a camp near the iraqi border. thousands of syrians who fled to neighboring lebanon when the war began are going back home the new minister in charge of lebanon's millions of refugees is an outspoken supporter of syria's government is vowed to make the return of refugees a priority for human rights groups say those returning face arbitrary detention and torture by the regime they know how to reports from beirut. a new group of syrians is returning home thousands have made this journey in recent months but the numbers are still small lebannon hosts over a million refugees from the war in syria authorities say it is time for them to go home now that much of the country is back under the syrian government's control but there are those who accuse bashar al assad's government of reestablishing we're

pressing a rule they say the southern province of donna as an example there is a. a lot of. insecurity for the population. for former rebels as well as for civilians people who never engaged in military action but who would have a record. people supporting the opposition. being against the government. the opposition and there are had agreed to a negotiated surrender for an amnesty but some say the so-called reconciliation agreements are not being respected instead there have been arbitrary arrests. international organizations including the u.n. say the lack of security guarantees is why many refugees are afraid to go back. into the conflict and we haven't seen any reform being done by the syrian government towards the security situation especially syrian security services that

are responsible for crimes against humanity and force their parents arbitrary detention and torture and that in custody lebanon's politicians are divided on whether it is safe for syrian refugees to return home but the refugee affairs portfolio is now run by a politician allied to the syrian government the newly appointed minister salih first act in office was to visit damascus it further politicized the issue. there are some politicians who criticized the visit saying it breached the government policy of not intervening in the complex they believe refuge in return as well as normalize ties direct contacts with damascus should not happen until an internationally backed political solution is reached in syria. many in lebanon complain about the refugee populations impact on the country's economy and infrastructure those who hold power say they will push ahead with what they call

voluntary and safe returns for many syrians that could mean more difficult conditions to discourage them from staying in. beirut all right taking a look now at some of the other stories making news around the world the u.s. and south korea have agreed to end large scale joint military exercises on the korean peninsula the drills have been a point of contention with north korea's leader kim jong il washington and seoul say it's part of efforts to reduce tension with pyongyang but the two will still carry out a smaller joint exercise this of course comes just days after denuclearization talks between u.s. president donald trump and kim jong un broke down in vietnam rob mcbride has more from south korea's capital seoul. effectively joint military exercises in south korea have been scaled back since president donald trump announced after the single poor summit last june that he was no fan of these war games as he called them that

they were a waste of money but this confirmation that key resolve and foal eagle these spring exercises involving tens of thousands of troops of war planes ships and tanks will effectively come to an end is seen as a big concession they'll be replaced by a much smaller less high profile exercises these exercises have always enraged the north koreans who see them as a possible credit to war it seems the joint militaries of south korea and the u.s. of now agreed at least in part with that saying that they do indeed lead to a rise in tension that these exercises are being ended as a way of supporting the diplomatic efforts this will be welcome by president moon j.n. of south korea who's once again standing in as a possible mediator between north korea and the u.s. to get things back on track it will also possibly help his personal initiative to

try to help into korean relations good move forward to the next step he has stated in the last couple of days that despite the disappointment of the hanoi summit he's still determined to try to resume economic and tourism projects with north korea is still wants to try to go ahead with that although it's difficult to see just how without getting sanctions relief from the united states now a case that sparked outrage in the u.s. last year has resurfaced it involves two police officers who shot and killed an unarmed black man in sacramento county california the city's district attorney announced the officers will not face criminal charges the policeman claimed twenty two year old stefan clarke had a gun but no weapon was found dozens of people gathered outside sacramento police department on saturday to protest the decision quark's family is devastated.

you. know. this is. now the. game in a deep summer don't go all the women who were helping out you know until one of my grandkids or grandsons told me years ago. margaret. space x. is first craft able to carry astronauts to orbit has successfully docked with the international space station the unmanned dragon cracked crew capsule pulled off the maneuver four hundred kilometers above the pacific ocean just north of new zealand it will spend five days attached to the orbiting lab before attempting a reentry and splash down in the atlantic ocean nasa hopes to send astronauts to

space in the capsule later this year all right to a story now that we've been closely following apple and google have been under political pressure lately to remove a controversial saudi app from their platforms there's been some developments on that back to tell us more thanks has a moment google has refused to ban an app created by the saudi government which lets men track women and control where they travel while the app which is called abscessed sparked outcry among rights groups and a number of us for make his last month including california representative jackie speier who argues that the app stored on google and apple platforms is promoting sixteenth century tearing me she says the company told her that it would not pull the app. well google argues that the app compliance with its guidelines meets all the terms and conditions but apple says it will it will still be reviewing the app in the meantime the saudi authorities have accused politicians and critics of

mounting a systematic campaign to challenge the intentions of the app services and politicize it now all saudi arabia has introduced some reforms to women's rights it's law still requires women to get permission from their male guardian to travel critics believe the apps are app helps facilitate those rules so how does it work well abjure is a free mobile app launched in two thousand and fifteen and according to the insider the addition to dealing with states day tossed like registering vehicles booking appointments and also applying for visas assistant does make it quite difficult for anyone to fleece saudi arabia the main dashboard shows where male saudi guardians can add dependents this means women and children inside and out of the country the after also manages travel commissions which means men can choose the type of journeys women are allowed to take and also for how long now some people are talking about this on twitter and dress says the problem is in the saudi

guardianship law or not absent this is argues that the app provides government services wouldn't it be contradictory if an app run by the saudi government does not abide by its laws and another adds there are still numerous spying apps available for peace of purposes he says digital gender based violence is happening everywhere or let us know what you think is this the right move by google tweet us is the hash tag aging is good. now once again for those of you on facebook live you're about to see the story of how the recent talks with north korea are affecting koreans on both sides of the border border that's from our friends at a.j. and then santa is here with all the sport to tell us about the embarrassing slip this record breaking baseball player made on day one of his new job. jewing sierra leone civil war nigerian forces were deployed to protect civilians

let us find out what people are talking about a sport that i hear thank you very much to has and will after signing the biggest contract in north american sports history bryce harper has officially become a philadelphia phillies player the baseball star has completed a deal worth more than three hundred million dollars but isn't promising title success just yet and the richardson reports. this is what a three hundred and thirty million dollars sportsman looks like bryce harper has just completed the biggest deal in baseball history to become a philadelphia phillies player harper has signed a thirteen year contract that will take him up to his fortieth birthday so i want

to be somewhere for a long period of time i want to finish my career somewhere. made that commitment to me and you know i can't wait to be able to be part of you know the phillies for a long time as a teenager he was already being described as the le bron james of baseball by sports illustrated magazine so far his pro career has been with the washington nationals a six time all star pop was named the league's most valuable player in twenty fifteen i mean one thing that we know about bryce is he's an intense individual he plays a game especially hard. cares deeply about winning has historically cared deeply about his teammates and has historically produced on the baseball field. one of the best players in baseball. became a free agent after seven seasons and one hundred eighty four home runs at the nationals in a neat symmetry one hundred eighty four million dollars is the amount harper will

net after taxes with the phillies the payback has already started for the franchise fans bought one hundred eighty thousand tickets within two days of the deal being done. most negotiations whether it's the largest contract in the history of baseball or or something far smaller you're always going to have those moments and you know i won't necessarily comment on wednesday night specifically but i think throughout the process we had some some encouraging moments and some not so encouraging moments but the bottom line is that the at the very end we got where we needed to be a. big price tags bring big expectations the phillies have only won the world series twice the last time back in two thousand and eight. you know i'm not going to tell you that we're going to come in this year and when when the world series or you know when the division of course we all want that to happen that's your goal when you walk in the spring that's a goal the fans it's goal of everybody but good things take time as well his first targets will be getting the phillies into the playoffs for the first time since

twenty eleven and the richardson al-jazeera well one moment and the press conference has caused a big social media reaction mainly from fans of other teams it was the point where the phillies that record signing seemed to forget that he was no longer playing for washington you know that's what it's all about that's what i want to do you know we want to bring the title back to d.c. while many fans delighting in harper's slip but one has tweeted this saying cost to bring a bryce harper to your team three hundred thirty million rice saying he wants to bring a title back to d.c. priceless was so i guess and one fan said this i guess a bryson harper hasn't got over his ex because he still wants to bring back a title to d.c. well it's all a problem to the hopper to get back on twitter then confirm he didn't know where he

danger hunting them is illegal but some people here do for meat and or oil which they say is maybe seen all and it's also an aphrodisiac this residents of our time walk tuttle conservation group it's their job to guard the tuttles but the biggest threat is poaching where some people. beat up. that's why we are patrolling to give the security for the nesting models they then tag them to keep count of how many are out there up to four hours of hard labor she is done and has covered up eggs the best way she can to protect them from predators she's lucky that she's in a protected area many titles that come up to nest in other parts of the beach are in most danger of being hunted down for food by people another tart all lead her eggs in what is considered a danger zone the spot of the bitch is too exposed the tuttle watches have to move the eggs to a safe area it's

a delicate process. they have to make sure the eggs are well protected from poachers and direct sunlight. during the nesting season they carry out by weekly surveys which they say are often green last week the last survey that we did we collected a total of a chat with him is considering statistics we feel like we haven't done enough because we have done our outreach with awareness of the people but still they're not really ready to work with us many fisherman in what town will know that tattles are protected thousand muhammad several have been trapped in his fishing net he hands them over to government wildlife wardens or conservationists in the area for a fee it's a program that has helped but does not cover the anti-air nesting stretch that we were there we have it up there is protected i think it's very difficult to see a fisherman poaching. after two months tattle hutchings make their way into the

war games as he called them that they were a waste of money but this confirmation that key resolve and foal eagle these spring exercises involving tens of thousands of troops of war planes ships and tanks will effectively come to an end is seen as a big concession they'll be replaced by a much smaller less high profile exercises these exercises have always enraged the north koreans who see them as a possible credit to war seems the joint militaries of south korea and the u.s. of now agreed at least in part with that saying that they do indeed lead to a rise in tension that these exercises are being ended as a way of supporting the diplomatic efforts this will be welcome by president moon j.n. of south korea who's once again standing in as a possible mediator between north korea and the u.s.

to get things back on track it will also possibly help his personal initiative to try to help into korean relations go move forward to the next step he has stated in the last couple of days that despite the disappointment of the hanoi summit he's still determined to try to resume economic and tourism projects with north korea we still wants to try to go ahead with that although it's difficult to see just how without getting sanctions relief from the united states. talks between the taliban and the u.s. have ended for the day in doha the discussions aimed at resolving the seventeen year war in afghanistan the highest level negotiations between the two sides since washington stepped up peace efforts last year but sticking points remain including how much involvement the afghan government should have in any final deal has been following the talks they five has wrapped up here in the talks between the u.s.

and a taliban in this hotel right behind me in doha now they have not reached an agreement yet we've spoken to officials from both sides the americans say there it doesn't look like they're going to have any kind of an agreement in the coming days so they're still working on it the taliban are adamant that they're only discussing the future of fourteen thousand u.s. troops currently in afghanistan this is the only subject they're discussing with the americans at this point and they want the troops to leave their country within the next few months the americans however are proposing that their troops leave afghanistan in the coming years this is an issue that is being worked on here in doha and both sides are hopeful that they will reach an agreement in the coming days but on the ground in afghanistan people are dying in record numbers a u.n. report documented three thousand eight hundred civilian deaths last year including one files and children that is the highest number since record keeping began in two thousand and nine shot up from kabul. it's lunchtime when

fifty eight year old mohammed who say arrives to open a shop he sells drinks out of a container in the symmetry doesn't get busy until the afternoon but it's busier than it's ever been. or. every day we're witnessing burials here there is no space left on this hill top we are suffering from these attacks. the u.n. says thirty eight hundred civilians including one thousand children were killed in afghanistan last year it's a record for mohammed those numbers come to life in the hills around him he's lived at the foot of the symmetry watching it expand for over a decade. it is very painful in a nightmare from now when they bring the bodies sometimes twenty thirty even forty to be buried. the u.n. says one of the reasons for the record number of civilian deaths is i saw suicide attacks they were particularly deadly last year and they often targeted the shia

minority over here and western kabul resulting in a lot of people being brought up here to be symmetry which is quickly filling up. the u.n. report found the biggest killer of civilians was the taliban responsible for thirty seven percent of deaths the taliban rejects the un's finding somebody or struck on our last meeting of tribal elders and former taliban commanders in kabul spoke out against it this week they laid the blame on afghan and international forces. raids and killing innocent people people who reads people get killed in the strikes . last year was the first on record that more than five hundred civilians were killed because of airstrikes mostly by international forces who say they do investigation review credible allegations of errors to learn and improve but in the blame game of the afghan war the un hopes they can be some accountability i think

it's important that the stark reality of the costs of the conflict is put before the public and therefore does enter the calculations of those who are talking in that. endeavor to bring this conflict to a close it's a conflict now and it's eighteenth year with everyone that passes the graves edge closer to the ridge line behind the statistics beneath the snow by children and parents sunni and shia not fighters killed by them just the same shell of ballasts al-jazeera. there's been a large explosion in the eastern syrian town of bugaboos where isis fighters are trying to cling on to the last territory they hold in the country the u.s. backed kurdish forces have launched a final assault on the group to drive them from. civilians have been cleared from the town and taken to an s.d.s. camp near the border with iraq. well the new minister in charge of refugees in

a record. people supporting the opposition of being against the government. the opposition and there are had agreed to a negotiated surrender for an amnesty but some say the so-called reconciliation agreements are not being respected instead there have been arbitrary arrests. international organizations including the u.n. say the lack of security guarantees is why many refugees are afraid to go back. into the conflict and we haven't seen any reform being done by the syrian government towards the security situation especially the syrian security services that are responsible for crimes against humanity including enforce their parents arbitrary detention and torture and that in custody lebanon's politicians are divided on whether it is safe for syrian refugees to return home but the refugee affairs portfolio is now run by a pilot.
