forty thousand syrians trapped in a remote camp the united nations is holding discussions with the russian military the syrian government and representatives from the rock band camp near the borders with jordan and iraq the un told al-jazeera the majority want to leave but they haven't been given any security guarantees said huldah reports from beirut. it's no place for children is how the united nations describes camp makeshift schools provide some sense of normalcy but since the beginning of the year twelve children among their newborns have died of malnutrition and preventable diseases conditions are desperate for the forty thousand syrians stranded in this remote corner of syria last month damascus and its ally russia opened core doors to allow people to leave a few families left but the majority were too afraid the only route is to what are now government held areas of homs province according to the united nations damascus

has yet to provide security guarantees despite people wanting to leave. protection comes to be addressed among these. families being some pretense their own people feel they could face legal challenges. military duty the united nations is now involved in the dialogue between the russian military the syrian government and representatives of the camp it calls the talks a positive first step but while it waits for a sustainable solution the u.n. wants to continue to have humanitarian access to the camp the last aid delivery was in february a united nations survey shows most of the camp's residents want to return to their homes in government controlled territories but they all expressed concerns about their safety and security the united nations says those concerns are justified it has repeatedly criticized the lack of legal protections and it has been calling on the syrian government to granted access to all parts of the country where the

displaced and refugees have returned the conditions are making it harder for those in iraq about to survive smuggling routes have been closed by government forces so goods that do reach the camp are too expensive the displaced fear the situation will only get worse little progress was made in their talks. with government officials. that are obstacles that are slowing down the return one of them is that done story does have still not given security clearances for and even if they get this clearance many can't leave because they can't afford to pay for transportation the syrian government is negotiating from a position of strength it won't guarantee unimpeded access for aid deliveries and it won't open safe routes to the rebel controlled north for now rock bands population is given the choice of living in misery or returning home without security guarantees that. beirut and also forces have taken back

control of a ship that was hijacked by migrants off the coast of libya why currents took over they only bring one which had one hundred five people on board after being told they would be taken back to libya maltese police arrested five men who were on the vessel and are now questioning them it's an immigration interior minister but teo salvini has welcomed malta's intervention. so the u.k. parliament will hold another vote on friday on parts of the withdrawal agreement for britain's exit from the european union prime minister reason may's deal has already been rejected twice by parliament so will it be a case of third time lucky could speak now so al-jazeera is paul brennan he's outside the british parliament for us so paul surely is this the last throw of the dice for her. well it's either inventive and ingenious or desperately cynical depending on your political perspective and there's certainly some of the criticisms or plaudits that have been put forward for the prime minister's decision

to decouple the component parts of her breasts it deal and put them essentially to a separate votes what she says is that the withdrawal agreement elements the separation the the drawing a line on the meet the u.k.'s membership of the european union is already broadly agreed by all sides and it's the only part that the european union insisted must be passed by friday nights by eleven pm on friday in order to allow britain to have that deadline of may the twenty second and that's why she's divided the two but it's created an almighty route with the opposition labor party and even some conservative bracks it's here m.p.'s questioning whether it's even legal desperate times though require desperate measures here's a report from my colleague need barkha. efforts to secure backing for teresa mayes deal are intensifying with senior government ministers urging m.p.c.

give the twice defeated divorce deal another go this off to may promise to resign if a proposal is passed those tipped to replace a say now is the time to back the deal in seventeen point four million people office leave the european union we now have a chance to make sure that we do that's why everyone should support the prime minister's deal. the speaker of the house told the government that it could only put the deal before parliament again if it was fundamentally different but i do expect the government to meet the test of change so the government devised a plan to split the deal already agreed with the e.u. into its two constituent parts the withdrawal agreement and the political declaration the would draw agreement includes details about citizens' rights the fifty one billion dollars breaks a bill for leaving the e.u. now the northern irish border it's a legally binding document and has to be passed in parliament by friday to allow the u.k. to leave the e.u.

on may the twenty second. the political declaration on the other hand dictates the future relationship between the u.k. and e.u. and forms the basis of future trade talks it's a much shorter document it's also not legally binding by separating the two plan to vote only on the withdrawal agreement was given the green light by the speaker to go before parliament on friday and this was how it was presented this house notes the european council decision at the twenty second of march twenty nine thousand taken in agreement with the united kingdom but won't does it all mean in short the government is using the friday deadline set by the e.u. to secure backing for eighty percent of teresa mayes proposal resetting the bricks and clock to may the twenty second if the plan gets the required support it will allow the u.k. to leave the e.u. with a deal in tightly in the country to a two year transition period it's been called the bare bones of bricks it has a big risk for the government considering hard line breaks a t isn't

a reason may's own party and northern ireland's democratic unionist party either props up maine's government of repeatedly refused to back it. they'll have to rely on support from other sides of the house but the opposition labor party has said that it would be the blindest of blind bricks it that would mean leaving the interview with absolutely no idea where we're heading that cannot be acceptable the no m.p.'s are continuing to look for an alternative to teresa mayes deal after seizing control of parliamentary proceedings on wednesday no single plan gained a majority of m.p.'s who voted gandel monday the big question both leaves and remain as are asking now is whether teresa mayes breaks a gamble pay off. that's created a huge amounts of bad blood as you can as you heard in these reports to recently had a twenty minute telephone conversation with jeremy corbyn the labor opposition leader

the c evening in which mr coburn outlined his strong opposition to the tactics that to resign may has employed here but she is she has a back against the wall and adding to the pressure as well here in london on friday is going to be a big gathering of pro brits it marches they'll rally in parliament square led by the e.p.a. nigel farage a large group inc of all kinds of different progress its supporters and that is really going to they're going to make their presence hurt if not felt outside the parliament building the time the clock really is ticking and it's difficult to see where a solution can be found but the prime minister is well she's doing her damnedest to get this deal through if at all possible yeah another busy day for paula his team on friday thank you. the family of one of the victims in the european airlines crash the first lawsuit against the plane's manufacturer boeing jackson was so me

up to. par. in a world where journalism as an industry is changing we have al-jazeera fortunate to be able to continue to expand to continue to have that passen that drive and present the stories in a way that is important to our viewers. everyone has a story worth hearing. and cover those that are often ignored we don't weigh our coverage towards one particular region or continent that's why i joined al-jazeera .

well again undermined are the top stories here all the al-jazeera three female activists have been temporarily released in saudi arabia up to spending ten months in prison. at least nineteen people have died in a huge fire in a twenty two story building in bangladesh capital dhaka. and al-shabaab has claimed responsibility for a car bomb outside a crowded restaurant in the somali capital mogadishu which killed at least eighteen people. the united states has secretly authorized several companies to sell nuclear power technology to saudi arabia u.s. energy secretary rick perry reportedly approve sixty on wednesday can be held at how small from washington. it's been a cozy relationship from the start donald trump selected saudi arabia as the

location for his first foreign trip the u.s. president made clear the kingdom is a priority that's why u.s. lawmakers are now asking questions about reports the trumpet ministration recently granted secret approvals to at least one u.s. company to sell nuclear power technology to saudi arabia the kingdom school is to reportedly build two nuclear power plants with the united states russia and south korea competing for the project the us department of energy is not confirming the deals in a statement to al-jazeera it said only that any action that's been taken is to protect a company's privacy but members of congress suspect otherwise after many in congress believe the truck administration last year failed to hold the highest levels of the saudi kingdom clued in the crown prince responsible for the murder. when he was the

washington post contributor murdered in the saudi consulate in istanbul last october. given the saudi crown prince has stated publicly saudi arabia would pursue nuclear technology of iran did the same there are fears that any transfer of technology could lead to a broader middle east arms race if you cannot trust a regime with a bone saw you should not trust them with nuclear weapons grade the u.s. secretary of state this week assured lawmakers and efforts underway to contain any proliferation threats we are working to ensure that the nuclear power that they get is something we understand and doesn't present that risk your and but lawmakers aren't satisfied with calling on the white house to release the names of all u.s. companies who've secretly been approved to work with the kingdom even though any potential project is still years away this does not show any sign of progress if there is any progress is just showing about the process is starting to move forward

albeit slowly but they are probably any company from the united states submitting their meds with saudi arabia as is now a bit closer to the. still at the request of lawmakers a government investigation into the deals is now underway kimberly hell get al-jazeera the white house. been using one city of christchurch is holding a remembrance service two weeks after the most shooting it's fifty people died a gunman opened fire on them during friday prayers as a result of thomas is there for us right now so to six by what's happening. well exactly two weeks after those horrific attacks this is the national memorial service that the prime minister said shortly after the attacks would take place there are events going on here in christchurch very close to the scenes of the two attacks on the little mosque which is about five hundred meters in that direction in the lynwood mosque a few kilometers away from here and there are events going on in other cities like

christchurch wellington and oakland as well now we're hearing right now from one of the survivors of the attack on the. credit for rick was injured badly you can see him in a wheelchair there his wife was killed in that attack we've also heard a maori welcome to ceremony shortly will be hearing the names of all those killed in the two attacks in the two mosques read out all fifteen of them just in new zealand's prime minister that has done so much to bring this country together in the off the mouth of its actual be speaking there dignitaries at the front there from more than sixty countries in total including new zealand the prime minister of australia is here of course the main suspect in these attacks was from australia and we'll be hearing songs as well not only from mary saying is here in new zealand but also use of islam cat stevens he'll be performing as will many others so this really is a ceremony a commemoration to bring the country together there are probably five ten thousand

people in this parking christ church but this is being broadcast live around the country and all new zealand was encouraged to watch the survivor up on stage now has said that he forgives his attacker he says all those who died and now in paradise and that is how he can reconcile what happened with his faith and he also called for unity as did the mayor of christchurch a few minutes ago she said that the aim of these attacks was to divide new zealanders divide the world and state the attack had succeeded only in uniting people a hundred just two weeks of course since those horrific attacks to what extent does it feel like life is getting back to normal for people in new zealand. well these attacks profoundly impacted the psyche of the people of new zealand he didn't have never had a terrorist attack of any type let alone one that killed fifty people in the most a rethink way while people were praying in a place they should be safe so it really really got to everybody here in this country but life is slowly getting back to normal it's hell the being

a few events like this commemorations that have been televised nationally that brought people here and try to gather in terms of the investigation the man who is suspected of carrying out these attacks will appear back in court on the fifth of april so far he's only been charged with one count of murder but many more of course will follow when there will be at some stage a trial twenty two people remain in hospital twenty of them here in christ church and three of them remain in a critical condition so for the survivors well there's a long road to recovery for many of them and of course the grieving families of the fifty victims who died all have now been buried here in new zealand repatriated to their home countries because so many of those killed were immigrants relatively recent immigrants to new zealand in a few of their bodies were taken back to the countries from where they originally came but most were buried last week or the week before here in christ judge in christchurch thank you. four days after the disputed election in the indian ocean island nation of commerce four gunman have been killed in

making a comeback experts say misinformation about vaccines has contributed to measles outbreaks in several areas and in new york state they're taking unprecedented measures as christianson amy reports the local health department has been offering free vaccinations ever since measles resurfaced here in new york state county of rockland last october but that hasn't stopped the spread of the disease we are urging once again now with the authority of the law to get your children vaccinated so with new cases this week bringing the total to one hundred fifty six county officials have declared a state of emergency. under the thirty day declaration children who have not been vaccinated against measles are barred from public gathering places parents of violators face fines and up to three months in jail we've gotten to the point where people were not cooperating where people would be known to have had the measles or been exposed to the measles and in a public place like

a shopping center it's estimated that less than seventy three percent of children in the county have been vaccinated travelers brought the virus which was officially eliminated from the u.s. in two thousand back from a trip to israel this disease that was all but eliminated in the united states is now staging a comeback so far this year the centers for disease control and prevention has counted at least six outbreaks across five states public health officials have blamed films like this and social media for spreading fear about back summations even though they've been proven time and again to be safe and effective platforms like facebook and youtube have announced new steps to block and minimize misinformation spread by the anti backs movement so i think one thing we need to be focusing on is empowering people with skills to interpret this information a lot of it you know mimic scientifically valid information and so i think helping

people identify you know what is valid and what isn't is going to be critical moving forward in rockland county many local residents support the county's effort to keep the public safe i think that something needs to be done that has to be very drastic that people need to comply and we've got to stop this the south bank is serious make sure everyone is safe it's not it's not a joke you know if you've actually made it they hope the message that the vaccine is safe and effective is getting through kristen salumi al-jazeera rockland county new york. yes president donald trump says he will hold a federal review of the juste small that case trump says the f.b.i. and the justice department will examine the decision by chicago prosecutors to drop disorderly conduct charges against the access to the small that he was accused of orchestrating a fake racially motivated attack against himself in january it's not clear whether federal authorities have any jurisdiction over case and if you're found guilty you can be trump himself is on his way to the state of michigan where he'll hold

a rally for his supporters it is his first big event since the inquiry said there was no evidence of russian condition in his twenty sixteen election campaign well reynolds is in the city of grand rapids where that body is being held. up give us some idea about what trump is expected to talk about. well we're going to be listening carefully to see what president raul talks about here in grand rapids the . president has been on taking kind of a victory lap after declaring himself fully exonerated by the moeller report it was or rather by his. attorney general's four page summary of. course the full report itself in its entirety or in redacted form it's not been released also listening to see if the president is in a vengeful mood he has just as you said that some of the people who are

investigating him and his campaign from the f.b.i. they are trees he's also called upon one of his main critics in the. democratic controlled house of representatives representative adam schiff is chairman of the intelligence committee to be removed from congress will also be listening to see if the president is saying the say on health care because his administrator has gone to court asking federal courts to overturn the entire affordable care. also known as obamacare upon which millions of americans rely for their care now america no democrats ran very successfully on health care issues in the midterm elections last year as you may recall so this could be a problematic issue for president trump if there is a threat to the affordable care act because the believe it or not the twenty twenty election is only twenty months away might make all robots scary for seven hundred

forty what is the significance of trump choosing grand rapids michigan for this small campaigns to haul romney. well you know this is not a big town but it's a very significant place because until strong one in twenty sixty six consecutive presidential elections for six consecutive presidential elections michigan had gone democratic and trump won here by a very thin eleven thousand votes out of clearly six million votes cast so this was a big upset with rob and it is part of the. coalition of states that he needs to keep together behind him if he is going to reassemble is is winning slew of states for twenty twenty rope and. now scientists in the u.k. say they found a genetic mutation in
