i have no say and that the sentence will be a matter of political interests for thirteen years kind of capture he was eventually arrested in belgrade in two thousand and eight where he was living under a false identity in plain sight as a self-styled faith healer brought to the hague where he was found guilty of genocide the seventy to massacre among other crimes it has been one of the most high profile legal battles of the yugoslav wars said his words were twisted joining the trial that prosecutors unfairly blackened his name and is calling for the conviction to be overturned but the survivors of the one nine hundred ninety two to ninety five conflict in bosnia that left one hundred thousand dead believe that appeals judges must keep in place his ten convictions and his sentence. unfortunately in many past cases convicted criminal sentences were reduced on appeal and we offer aid that the same thing might happen in the case of rather than

courage it even though we believe that for the crimes that organize here in bosnia herzegovina he does not deserve forty four hundred years in prison there has been little reconciliation between the ethnic groups that clashed in bosnia as war among many orthodox serbs he make up a third of bosnia as three point five million population. is still celebrate his as one of the heroes even in the face of the thousands of graves that stand as silent memorials to be atrocities committed. so this is now serving life in prison is this the end of this case for cottages are there any avenue legally left to him . no absolutely not this is very much the end of the road for him he cannot appeal this so this is really the final sentencing for this and it draws a line really to what was one of the most important cases it was

a monumental case when looking at the crimes that had taken place. during the war the former yugoslavia so also this is a very morning mentally important case for holding to account for war crimes and for crimes against humanity and genocide which are out of our cottage which was . sentenced for so this really has a very important status within exactly how it goes forward but for coverage it should south this is the end of the line for him and this is as far as he can go his appeal has lost and what he is facing now is the rest of his life behind bars that is so new you mentioned earlier that there were some families of the victims who had gathered to hear the result have you had a chance to get a sense of how they've been reacting as the trial has been progressing.

well what they were most worried about was that he would not be getting life imprisonment is they had seen with some other cases before where they felt that perhaps because there had been precedent set for early releases for some of the criminals who had been indicted however this was what many of them wanted they wanted this they wanted him to not be released in his lifetime as well and given the fact that he is his seventy's it's really sort of what they really want to see here for the crimes now not forgetting of course that this for them has been really years of on told suffering for them don't forget of course although had a church was indicted in one thousand nine hundred ninety five he was on the run for some thirty years eventually arrested in belgrade where he was living on.

a full side dentity practicing as some kind of alternative healer where then he was brought here with the trial as well and also without of his commander in chief. who was also died for that for the same crimes and seventy really this underlines and brings to somewhat of a close although how much peace they will have with this really it cannot be told but really does underline the fact that these two leaders of. leaders were brought to justice and it really is a very important precedent for leaders who could be charged for genocide and war crimes as well as crimes against humanity thanks very much and. just nine days before the u.k.

scheduled to leave the european union british prime minister has asked the e.u. to delay that departure by three months and have already rejected a greggs a deal twice and a third vote was vetoed on monday and less the agreement includes fundamental changes that is in a defended her decision to seek an extension to britain's departure date in parliament. on thursday the house voted in favor of a short extension if the house had supported a meaningful vote before this week's european council this motion also made it clear this longer extension would oblige the united kingdom to hold elections to the european parliament mr speaker i do not believe such elections would be in anyone's interest. be i fear that the. three years after voting to leave the e.u. the people of this country should be asked to elect a new set of any peace is i believe unacceptable. what john hall is live for us now in london jonah do we have any idea of what to do so may has been saying to the

e.u. . well we know that she's sent this letter to donald to stuart in council president she was outlining the contents of the letter to follow him and there ostensibly rational for us if the short extension is that she finds it unacceptable that britain should find itself contesting european parliamentary elections due to happen in late may not saying it perhaps what other people are suggesting. by the right of her own property hardline powerful bro breaks it m.p.'s who threatened to take action including the resignation of cabinet ministers if indeed she asked for a long extension which she promised to do last week uproar in the house in certain quarters are up about this latest twist in the dramatic breaks that saga she said to the e.u. if you still this government's position and policy that we will exit the european union based on the deal that theresa may struck with the e.u.

albeit now on june the thirtieth rather than march the twenty ninth if she gets her way she's osp him at the summit in the next two days to ratify those concessions that were offered for a second meaningful vote that was lost of course last week in the hope presumably that that ratification would amount to a substantial changes sufficient to satisfy the speaker john bercow to allow her to have a third meaningful vote next week this is the pitch to the e.u. give us a short extension would have another vote we win the deal and then we leave those few weeks or a couple of months to to make technical changes and put it all into rule of course jonah there's no guarantee of code that the e.u. is going to grant that extension do we have any idea what happens next that is procedurally if nothing else. oh we appear to have lost our feeds to join the hall and in the meantime let's move on.

ok the un is holding a meeting in libya to discuss how to lay the groundwork for elections these are live pictures from the united nations let's listen in a myth you made us on exposing the mole don't you than our presence on us and. ambassador your constituents thank you mr president in accordance with twenty four of security council resolution one nine hundred seventeen of twenty six february two thousand and eleven i have the honor to report to the security council on the work of the committee established by the same relation. the report covers the period from nineteenth january two thousand nine hundred twenty of march two thousand nine hundred with the president i would like to highlight the following developments relating to the work of the committee first on the panel of experts following the adoption of resolution twenty four forty one from two thousand and eighteen the secretary general on second january two thousand nine hundred

appointed six individuals to serve on the panel on eighth february two thousand nine hundred committee held informal consultations and heard a briefing by the coordinator of the panel of experts on the panel's work program under resolution twenty four forty one the panel briefed on its intended areas of focus on the men date mainly the arms embargo armed groups and attempts at illicit experts of petroleum and the as a freeze. these are live pictures from the united nations the u.n. is holding a meeting on libya to discuss how to lay the groundwork for elections i want to bring in our diplomatic editor james bays who's joining us from the u.n. james if i understand it correctly libya has essentially two governments and also a whole range of on groups which also claim responsibilities and strengths within libya bringing all of that together in order to hold elections is an attempt and i think nightmare i would have thought what are they going to be discussing at the

meeting today. yeah absolutely rob i think you can describe the situation in libya eight years after that rebellion started against gadhafi as a complete mess and the u.n. is making another effort to try to get things back on track just explain what you're seeing now that is a ambassador from germany who's currently serving as the head of the sanctions committee was regard to libya what's known as the one nine hundred seventy sanctions committee referring to the resolution number updating the details on of of the sanctions on various individuals and entities with regard to libya but what we just had before that was gas and salam a who is the u.n. special envoy with regard to libya and he's come up with a quite ambitious plan to get things back on track he's called for a new national conference for libya for libyans not the international community but

libyans a national conference to take place in the southwestern town of good dharmas between april of forty and sixty eight the plan then is to have elections that that national conference a meeting of all the important part he's in libya to have elections by the end of this year remember they were supposed to have elections way before that lot most recent date was the end of last year but again trying to put things back on track but as you say the military situation he says is still very difficult he says there's a real risk of miscalculation although there have been recent meetings between fires seraj who is the u.n. recognized prime minister of libya and generally for huffed up who is the strongman from benghazi who's been expanding his presence on the ground particularly into the south and central parts of libya i can tell you behind the scenes as you look at

the security council listening they are all invested in the u.n. plan and in that. u.n. backed prime minister officially but behind the scenes there are certainly regional powers and even some members of the security council who are perhaps toying with the idea of general hafta perhaps libya is a country that needs a strong man and there is a strong man waiting in the wings and on the stage in libya and also worth telling you some of the regional players and some of the international players will sort of see the economic benefits maybe of doing a deal with general haftar and getting those oil fields running again thanks james algeria's president out there as it's beautifully appears to have lost the support of his ruling party gerry and media are reporting that national liberation front chief more than looks out ahead is saying the party now fully supports the recent protests the ruling party has become the latest in a growing list of groups to come out in force against the president. the second largest party in power has also expressed its support for the protests turned shia

. is to run the presidential race for a fifth term in his current physical condition is nothing short of lack of common sense on our part we have not had enough courage to express all what is in our minds we were not among those convinced with the notion of running for a fifth term in his current physical condition. google is a more legal trouble with the e.u. it's been fined one point six billion dollars for blocking rival search advertisers the regulators said the tech giant boots and t. trust rules they say for over a decade google has abused its dominant position in the market allowing it to maintain an unfair advantage over competitors this is the third time the e.u. has fined google google has engaged in illegal practices when it comes to their search at the ties in brokering in order to cement its down wouldn't market

position. this is the third antitrust fine that we have imposed on google in june two thousand and seventeen we find cool for its illegal behavior in comparison shopping services and in july two thousand and eighteen we find google for its illegal behavior relating to the android more robot operating system from all of our apps and services technology journalist adrian maza says this latest find might finally called google to reexamine the way it operates. i think google will mend their ways to some extent. they would be foolish not to if they carry on the way they were. they they said they're grateful i think they used a phrase something like grateful for the feedback from the european commission rather expensive back in their previous antitrust case. so no there isn't written anything apart from finds that there isn't. a montreal process in it

the next step is government start making noises about breaking these companies are all bringing in the european legislation that further limits what they can do but these things take a long long time and so far the evolution of tech companies behavior happens faster than legislators legislate and that's been the case for at least the last twenty years and i'm sure will be the case for some time to it's only a significant amount alphabet google's a parent company made thirty point seven billion pretax profit last year so they've lost a third of that so far in fines they will have to pay it adventure if they don't win appeals. typically these guys obviously for touch a vast amount of money however hopeless you think it is it's worth appealing and i suspect this will be subject to appeal after appeal and dragged out for as long as

possible israeli forces have killed three palestinians in the occupied west bank crowds have gathered for funerals being held on wednesday morning earlier the palestinian red crescent society says the israeli army fired at their ambulance to try to get to those who've been wounded. earlier israeli forces shot dead a palestinian man thought to be behind an attack in the occupied west bank on sunday the suspect nineteen year old omar i mean. was found in the village of north of ramallah when troops raided the building where he was hiding israel says he was killed after he allegedly opened fire at the security forces that came to arrest him israeli army accuse the palestinian man of fatally stabbing a soldier and then using his gun to shoot and kill. us back sitting in democratic forces say they've taken control of an iso camp outside that's the last pocket of territory controlled by still in syria the mostly kurdish troops say

that six is a force for good in the region we are working to help those countries find a set of common ground we all have the same set of threats the threats from a kind and from isis threat from islamic republic of iran and we all are working diligently to find a path forward so that the rift between those countries can be resolved. lots more on the website al-jazeera dot com that's al-jazeera dot com there are more pictures and lots of background in all the stories that we're giving you today. this is al-jazeera these are the top stories the international criminal court has just ruled on an appeal by the bosnian serb war criminal rather than college age and increased his forty years sentence to life in prison carriage was convicted over his role in the submarine some massacre thousands of muslim men and boys were

a short extension if the house had supported a meaningful before this week's european council motion also made it clear that longer extension would oblige the united kingdom to hold elections to the european parliament mr speaker i do not believe such elections would be in anyone's interest . the. three years after voting to leave the e.u. the people of this country should be asked to elect a new set of any peace is i believe unacceptable. algeria's president out there as he is beautifully appears to have lost the support of his ruling party algerian media reporting the national liberation front chief lord bush says the party now fully supports the recent protests and willing parties becoming the latest in a growing list of groups who come out in force against the president. and those are the headlines the news continues here on knowledge after the stream life and.

on march twenty fourth thailand will hold its first general election since the two thousand and fourteen military coup most thais are hoping for political stability but after years of military rule will this election be the answer join us for live coverage as thailand vote on al-jazeera. i am for me ok and i'm really could be here in the stream today people power in algeria we will ask how popular movement for political reform is changing the country are you in algeria what changes do you want to see us now live via twitter or in our you tube channel. option either i'm a reporter i'm a little civil and you are in the stream. protesters in algeria are

saying enough is enough for weeks young algerians have been leading a movement against president abdelaziz bouteflika who has ruled the country for twenty years ballin to the pressure of protesters last week beautifully reversed his decision to run for a fifth term in office despite his promise to stand down protests have continued on tuesday thousands of students professors and health workers demonstrated in algiers to demand immediate change many criticize the government for being out of touch with every day algerians. this system is due. to do the people unite around a single free change the regime and we tell them go away go away you will last algeria has man skills is it is good. i am here to tell the system enough it's over twenty years you ruined us you suck just dry we aren't afraid leave us sons of traders are governing us they took the cow with its grass

and its milk and everything enough let our children live let our children live and let our children. was due to hold elections in april but on monday president would think once again insisted that the vote should only be held after a new constitution is approved through a national dialogue we're here to tell us more about the movement for reform in algeria and istanbul and yes i mean i lose a researcher and writer who focuses on north africa in beirut that i am a resident scholar at the carnegie middle east center and algiers i'm a sociologist welcome everyone to this stream i want to start with some pictures to give our audience a sense of the scale of these protests so take a look at my screen here this posted by red and has been shared several times on twitter he writes impressive drone footage showing the extent of the largest popular protests in algeria's history against the president's plan to cling to

power and you can just see the scale of it bare people looking tiny like this this is how it looks from a bird's eye view move over to this tweet here and this is been shown this and have a listen to what those protests actually sound like. and then today we got this one. a member of our community malia here says i'm marching with students in algiers today incredibly emotional and powerful students united will never be defeated and she posts a picture of herself from the tuesday march nineteenth protest you can see her there she sent that to us right before air time that again you have been among these protestors what is it like being out there in the streets. yes in the the in march with the student on february twenty sixth him back no one and then i marched

with what was came to be called the one million march. that took place in march first and i have to say that was very powerful very emotional as you know a political scientists it was amazing to observe the protests but as a national citizen of algeria it was very emotional for me i think we are leaving a very unique sequence of events that we haven't seen in the since the ninety's you know when my mother used to drug me at protests saying no to terrorism so it was you know the scale of the protests were amazing the behavior and the peaceful nature of these protests also is something that really was impressive the organization as well you know each time for instance we would reach a police beric protester would you know ways their arms and stage and start

chanting still be us in media which means peaceful peaceful they were also chanted . short. which means military and police are brothers and it was very you know emotional people were giving us what they were giving us bottles of water i think this is the first time in a while that we haven't seen algerian that you need ok yasmina you tweeted out nineteenth of march and you made a connecting a connection between the sixty's and what's happening today have a look here yes minister she talks about sixty two she talks about ninety five twenty nine team of protesters students are doctors and other sectors and cities in algeria going out how would you describe what is happening in algeria right now.

so based off the comparison of particular significant dates that we're seeing today of the nineteenth of march where you're seeing there's a recommendation of the national history of algeria that for many yes has been manipulated by the ruling elites of generals who have used their status to legitimize their power hold and you're having to some generations now who are refused to see the governments of these war generals of based on the historic. what they've gained in the history of the country and read what the damage they've done the waltz in governance and you're seeing seen a seventy percent of the population under the age of thirty that fed up frustrated having a president that is clearly unable to who has been unable to rule the size of the country since suffering a stricken two thousand and thirteen who has not addressed the country in the last six yes' and there are those just

a general consensus amongst the unions amongst various sectors in society in the public. enough is enough that's represented here i want to show a series of tweets. put online by see that this headline this is and also to read that the that he shares some of the pictures that people are sharing online this algeria deep cleaning is referring to rampant corruption and graf symbolized by algeria's ruling clan will scroll down a little bit more and these are soldiers you will south africa got madiba we got mostly or a disaster and that is referring to the president they are sharing a cartoon and this last one i want to show. he writes this is an office term not an underwear brief for you to stretch and it's quoting a picture of someone who was there referring to bits of cancelling the elections and stretching his fourth term so clearly some creativity out in these protests but i mean how significant do you see these protests. i think the our

manager and i think that all it's a little larry we didn't end. to one of the regime and towards the. ruling elite who have been hijacking the state and its resources since nine hundred sixty two it's really a large sitting well you know what we are going to do i don't think we don't want to negotiate with you no thank you we don't want to have anything to do with you and we do not know your me and him are the meeting but the fact that arjun are balanced that we can't agree with each other that are to destroy then your largest if you were really know that in the ninety's in our journey out there had been a struggle. first in ninety ninety two when and accurately to react years and it's party and it has been then a struggle between islamic groups and the army and security forces so obviously

people are really trying to get independence from all dad all that will argue that badly needs its audacity its courts to use demands of shared just super. power and that's how we should dance this catalans and this week you were and this joy to be together with not having there has been interfering in our genes for to explore our much the thirteenth reuters took this picture on my laptop of a student protest and she says hey you wanted five that's a fifth term for the president here are five and he lists the reasons why people are on the streets he doesn't want to tell me extension they were fooling people or no more corrupt government and i'm all manipulation no to foreign intervention dalla does that succinctly sum up why it is that you keep going back to algeria to protest is there

a vision from the protesters about exactly why they're protesting what they want. yes indeed actually when the protestant the demand was very clear and focused and it was one demand it was no two the fifth term of our business is good for what has been in power for twenty years in fortunately the incapacity of the region to respond and to answer quickly to the demand made the protest go bigger and the demand extend so we went from no to the fifth to no to the entire region no to the entire system and to a slogan such as a shabby redo is cut them a dam which means the people want the region to fall so this is the incapacity of the region to answer and to dispense what it used to do you know during the ninety's but also during the arab spring that didn't happen in fact in algeria why because we were in front of the region who had a cup

a city to answer quickly what the regime used to do is to dispense political and economic reforms or in terms you know in forms of packages in two thousand and twelve for instance in answer to the arab spring by dispensing political reforms that by allowing for instance twenty one in new a political parties to register and it has also a very important economic resources so it was capable to buy social peace today the region doesn't have the mean to buy social peace any more so on the economic front it is incapable of buying social peace and on the political front to the region seems adamant about keeping beautifully but again the question is why they are so adamant this is almost a ridiculous situation i would say iran is ridiculous why why why because this has to be. found story within the nature of the region the algerian region is

a very complex and rich. it is you know composed by difference and circles of power and decision circles you know you have the f.l.n. up my cheek you have the bureaucracy you have the military that are very powerful in the mid it to me are not governing but they are ruling and all and of course you have the business tycoons and all of these different circles and have you know are cemented the by deep economic and political interests so moving all this with take a lot of time and a lot of lot of efforts so this is why do we g.m. is so deeply rooted that it is very hard to move it then again algerians are realistic about what they can change and what they cannot change and what one think they change already is that they destroyed the will of fear that has been there

since the end of the war in one nine hundred ninety nine and i heard what you were saying about the circles that are propping up the system of government there and i here on twitter says something similar the shadow government should reveal themselves to the algerian people referring in a way to those circles but at the head of that is this person and it's written in this week here for heaven sake eighty two years old and you can't walk why not retire and rest what is it that still makes you desire to be president go home to your family and rest of course they are referring to him to let these put the flicka the president just ameena talk to us about this sentiment are you hearing the three other people not understanding why this president still wants to be at the helm. well all of the secrecy that's surrounding at the moment means that for many algerians doubts whether. what the status exactly of his health is and there is even more sinister rumors that he may not even be alive. there's also

a contradiction in the how the same as the he's released so for example in the third of march he's come the dissolute was submitted to the constitutional council via his campaign manager but a few. weeks later his statements on the eleventh of march. a change that he had no intention of running for a fifth mandates and that his age and health were factors that particular decision which obviously contradicts contradicts the fact that a medical certificate was produced in order for him to to be. to file his candidacy and to. to continue with a fifth term so we're seeing these questions of who exactly are releasing these statements who are pulling the strings behind the current decisions and for how long we will see him ahead the current governments are overlooking as

a caretaker president the current transition democratic transition and calls for national dialogue and conference within the next year ladies i want to show our audience what it might mean it as some. magic show is what it actually means to have a president who is let's say incapacitated or are not seeing speaking in public for at least six years so at official events like this one you can see it on my laptop here his portrait presides over official offense and a figure few more of these pictures and sometimes. it's a very indifferent age is present beautifully and you see him here. this is bizarre and going back to the fish often where the president is on an easel and then finally at a rally and leading a parade right there the front looking somewhat younger this is very strange. who

is actually running. jiri or right now obviously it can't be a poor trait that is brought out during these official events so who is running out gerri. well you know for sure ellen the physical absence of the fear has added she just loves him meaning an elite it's a wonder why it's only a large audience where singing we are all of that the whole weird is it's making air because this is trading on lee the president there's a popular song in our general has been. getting a put out and that say we don't have a president we are we have a picture and that's in this feeling call small's deep inside and very late into the object that only that now it's really young. the international coverage has been focusing a lot on good fear perhaps not but it can be the young people you are asking me who

inflating algae at people who are also bad on every article not that of course there is a prison camp now as we have been growing and growing and growing these past years including these businessmen that was munching but also what all car to see and also see. a rich people who thought they may benefit from their their allergens to the fear card to get a house or to get a charge at someone but you most importantly you how do you are me and that's the biggest taboo in argentina actually and the next it's inside nothing's actually ending is that the tab one of the ironies was slowly fading away until recently people were only talking about thailand illusion but not about yeah i mean they were always. has been mentioned also and jewish and sheriff well tell us all the people and the army are brothers but the thing is that we have to differentiate

between the characters needed to recant meant and the whole and didn't the beloved of people who are part of the man of the need to really inch algerian family had. number of the units really are i mean it's quite common because the you know you have villages and so on and these people are started stew and i'm trying to the demonstration now started to just sit and started to see what we are fed up with the regime as well and it was. the most traditional the police have also said slums demonstratives this is a huge shanty in our journey especially after as i was sitting and seeing so large that an audience had leukemia and that is so the little things are changing and i don't see that mission that of who is living out of that is not arjun's interest anymore they are saying we are president we are the cool these are the army that's what we call death and that's the side that they really want you are going out and

create our own political future to get that car culture of their institutions going to be in our kids and our journey of a lot better a lot of action you're going to see universities and local includes and so people are trying to debate drug and i think what you see how do you cannot in that transition to see how you can. just talk to each shot that you all have and the life of that little hoods and to organize protests to hold fire and sense along the way so many of you know i like what you were saying they are represented in this comment we just caught on on you tube from lilac's who says i'm algerian and i'm proud of our peaceful protests we can make it in part president we don't accept the rumors because he's just a face for the real people that are trying to ruin algeria and as you mentioned many people believe that it is the army in the military that is propping him up but i wanted to push on just a little bit want to share with their audience a video comment we got from someone who is twitter right at the very beginning she

wrote this piece for al jazeera dot com algerian people won the battle but the struggle is not get over have a listen to what mother had told the string. the intro goes to fear felt like a temporary victory to the german people also you bet given the the elections subsequently canceled they have been in this region for decades they know its capabilities and they know that they will do everything that they can't control what happens next what kind of days presented and how the elections take place so it felt like a temporary battle was won but in reality the will continue. so that if the battle is over but the war continues what is next in that quote unquote war what comes next. yeah well sure that's only a battle that was won because you know it was very clear from the declaration that he is not running seeking a few turbot he is extending the fourth and there is no election anymore so this is

not even really a victory so the question that remains now is what will happen to these protests and this will be you know i wrote a piece on the new york times and i hinted to that but i am going to write a new piece about what the algerian protests should do in order for their movement not to fade away because this is what usually happened to a lot of protests we've seen that in the arab world to during the arab spring so i believe that the first condition is that you know to continue practicing what is called the in political science the political jujitsu meaning demand violence nonviolence that is a very very strategic approach and i don't judeans and this to that and this is why they don't like the analogy with the arab spring ok understood that that you know during the ninety's they used the violence and the bidens was counterproductive followed ten years of civil war so today algerians they are sticking to their guns

if i may say but they're peaceful and this is a very important condition because triggering you know that the the region security forces would put an end to to the protests would eliminate to the people who are already there and those who still have to be convinced that social value nonviolence yes recently we've been talking in particular when talking about the current administration in algeria i would like to play a comment from the new prime minister in algeria this is what he said last week he said i have seen the protests and i'm taking note have a listen have a look. so for the coup the new government will be a formation that will represent all the energies and especially the youth through algerian women and men and hopefully be up to the expectations of these ambitions. but then a. city that should have seen students we have seen teachers

we have seen doctors we have seen all parts of the algerian society and i assure you once again we are ready determined and our desire is strong and our doors are open to discuss and exchange visions. throughout the i've just been watching face well actually the prime minister she was not looking convinced that this was going to happen that change was going to happen and i would never allow a single bit of ash bring us home. you know because you know that's exactly because they're not international cooperation we are talking about this lose you have something to lose you to make one has and we do not have to share and actions i mean everybody now little's that this government is hiring corrupted that it has been designed by the people to rule and that it will only go there you have to i think if you have to understand that not only did i not wish to make. lucian let me because of their bad governance but because they have stolen the power and it has

gone since resources that's not what is going on not just that since ninety six that's one thing to. me is that international not comfort is also somehow and has been on our journey out there in the last lap you don't hear the reaction and well how paris and washington are endorsing these last seventeen that's really in our genes that really because first they don't want. to sit still very clearly this is a this is a salary after so i don't want to. thank you so much for your perspective on what is happening in algeria right now even today on tuesday with the protests wrapping up with out on like me to take the protester this is the gamer who writes on you tube i participated in the protests there is a powerful full of emotion emotion turned to anger for the freedom that we deserve but are not getting there is a lot of unity i want to leave you with

of the stories. provided glimpse into someone else's world. inspiring documentaries from impassioned filmmakers and the front lines i feel that i know when i have the data to prove. every. witness on al-jazeera until now the coverage of latin america that most of the world was a cover included todd's tragedies of quakes and that was it but not so how could will feel how they look how they think and that's what we do we go anyway five and a half months of demanding it for an education system that was introduced to. latin america as a zero has come to fill a void that needed to be filled. up

to. the first. this is al jazeera. and this is the news from al-jazeera no reprieve for. the u.n. appeals court increases his sentence to life in jail for his role in the bosnian genocide. one of the messages that i want to show you to my gang people in

particular. is i tried to ask her how in other news new zealand's prime minister reaches out to the muslim community as they begin to bury the victims of last week's mosque attacks. the government intends to bring forward proposals for. not giving up on her brags that plan the british prime minister theresa may asked the e.u. to delay the u.k.'s exit from the block until the end of june. and songs of love and peace we will meet one of the finalists from afghanistan's biggest talent competition. and sporting james harden makes more and be a history. rocket star has become the first player to score thirty points against all opponents in a single season. so

he pleaded to reduce his forty year sentence but the u.n. appeals court has ruled the former bosnian serb leader radovan caught a judge will spend the rest of his life in prison for his role in the nine hundred ninety s. war in bosnia the hague based to try being a lot held his conviction on charges including genocide war crimes and crimes against humanity let's start with an update from the hague covering events for sonia was there satisfaction baps with the results from the relatives. come on indeed there was and in fact when the sentence was read out there was a cheer from the public gallery that was speaking to the relatives of the victims are outside their bed relatives from an organization called mothers of so who said that there was satisfaction the feeling that justice had been done of course this is very much a bittersweet because this comes after decades of suffering and hurt suffered by

the relatives here parts a feeling that justice had done its job here and that they could have confidence in in this and with that ruling and so this is what they wanted to reach in italy for two years for the many fear felt like too little and what they really wanted to see was ratified carriage put behind bars for the rest of his life. how significant is this particular decision so near and does it does it draw a line under at least the whole judicial process to do the war. absolutely i mean this is one of the last remaining cases that's being heard was the tribunals for the former yugoslavia closed in twenty seventeen and what with it what they're doing now is listening to the remaining cases here so this is one of the last ones and it is a major monumental case one of the most important ones and we because of course it

deals with one of the worst genocides committed on european soil since the second world war and that's the massacre of need and the time that it took to bring these people to justice as well as the indictments were put out in one thousand nine hundred ninety five after the massacre itself but the lead out of our carriage which went into hiding as did his military commander right call. i was in hiding for some thirteen years before being up arrested in belgrade in two thousand and eight he has been here at the hague since then and even though he was sentenced to twenty sixteen of course he appealed that decision as well but most of those today really. not washed in effect also another reason why this is significant as well is for so many people for all the

wars that taking place around the world this also is a very important precedent in terms of how leaders or all would be. treated in terms of are held to account for the crimes they have committed. in this case here it was genocide it is crimes against humanity it was crimes and that is also what lawmakers are looking at at how this can be continued forward with all the conflicts that are taking place around the world not least of all because of the antipathy which international justice is being held by certain countries such as the united states the philippines this really brings that into perspective just how important it is to hold people who have positions of leadership for their actions jury such conflicts. with that up to the hague thank you. we move to new zealand now with the first funerals have been held for the

victims of last week's attacks a father and son who had fled the war in syria when they had to rest in christ church where fifty people were shot dead during friday prayers thirty bodies have now been released to the families and police hope to return more by the end of. the latest. it's five days since worship his was shot dead in two christchurch mosques and the bodies of the victims are being released for burial here a father and his son khaled moustapha and his teenage son hamza were refugees from syria they and their family arrived in new zealand last year among the mourners holmes's younger brother who was shot and wounded in the attack on the el nor mosque hamza had attended kashmir high school in christchurch along with another of the victims it was there that the prime minister was welcomed on wednesday with a traditional mahdi haka. the arm of. her who.

was one of the messages that i want to see you try again people in particular he said kate a grave is i came to ask for how even if you were directly effected these things these images that people are saying they have really really difficult to proceed some injured in the attack of now left christchurch hospital after treatment but many remain some in critical condition the medical staff say that tired but proud of the way they've responded to what was an unprecedented number of gunshot wounds gunshot injuries aren't uncommon for us we normally see went to a month and we normally see one to two critically injured gunshot i should say year so about six in the last three years but to get forty x. in one day is exceptional hoping to be exceptional for any hospital in the world actually the mosques where the attacks took place are still under police guard but people are hoping they'll reopen in time for friday prayers most of the focus now is on cleaning and reconstruction of the mosques worshippers want to be able to return for what would be difficult emotional and poignant friday prayers but they

also don't want any physical reminders of what happens the prime minister has announced that friday's call to prayer will be broadcast on television and radio around new zealand and then two minute silence will be held to honor those who were killed wayne hale. christchurch. prime minister just into our den also says her country will mark the one we can a verse or the attacks with a two minute silence when also the broadcast or the muslim call to prayer will be broadcast arden's told al-jazeera she's deeply confronted by last week's shootings that targeted worshipers andrew thomas is moving to her in christchurch. since last friday's attack the always of the world being on new zealand and its prime minister . has only been in the job seventeen months and never expected the horror of what happened last friday speaking to al-jazeera she says she appreciates the sympathy the country's received we feel all of the support and condolences that of being

shared with us from around the world and particularly. from the global muslim community and i think on behalf of new zealand and perhaps of the new zealand muslim community i say thank you for that support we have we have found it very strongly our dances she's all too aware how people at prayer with the targets of last week's attack so confronting to us this new zealanders that it happened in that place of peace the worship where you know that our muslim community would have been in a place of deep contemplation when it was so clearly targeted at the him and talk to tag at them while they were shipping there i find deeply confronting the prime minister says the government was motivated by hate and ideology and that makes him a terrorist for me the case for using the word terrorists is a fairly clear this was a terrorist act this was

a direct tech very direct attack a deliberate attempt on new zealand's muslim community we should call that what it is on earth except racist of the geology exists in the country absolutely acknowledges even though this terrorist act was committed by someone who was not a new zealander we cannot ignore that as many nations do that there are those in new zealand albeit small who will share the ideology of this attack and we must root that out she says social media needs to be better policed. and she'll give details of the proposals to tighten gun laws later this week it's my belief that when we come to announce the decisions that have been made by us as a government i actually believe that new zealanders who currently hold guns for legitimate use that they will be with us that they will absolutely see the need for

the reform that we are proposing and why it is being proposed you don't have a terrorist act like this happen on your soil and not ask yourself the question did our gun laws contribute to this and if they did let's change the prime minister says to mark the passing of a week since the attack a two minute silence will be held mentioned wide on friday along with the broadcast of the muslim cool to prayer the message that i'm sharing is actually just a message on behalf of the new zealand people we are an inclusive peaceful nation we are a people and grieving alongside our muslim community and that is who we are and that is simply what i'm communicating andrew thomas al jazeera christchurch now this is an interesting twist to turkey's president reject time birder one has linked the christ church shootings to australia's involvement in turkey during the

first world war and he accused a stray leader in new zealand of having what he called an anti islamic agenda when their troops took part in the glittery campaign one hundred years ago and this is sparked off a diplomatic row was broad reports from sydney. this is quickly developed into a serious diplomatic spat between australia and turkey over remarks made by turkish president. that's brought this response from his australian counterpart remarks of been made by the turkish president a war. that i consider highly offensive to astride ians and hardly reckless in this very sensitive environment he's talking about the claim made by erdogan that the alleged australian gunman in the christchurch shootings.
