have traditionally been a fringe group living in spaces outside villages in camps called. the tradition was for men to carry call browse and baskets from one house to another in villages while the women sang and danced and begged for charity. contrary to popular belief they hold snakes in high esteem and would never kill
9:01 pm
them village residents would call the common capture a snake in the home and take it away without killing it in 1972 the indian government introduced the wildlife act forbidding snake possession and hunting the severely limited the traditional snake handling role and some were arrested for snake possession. it is a very well now you're being with all. the blob women would do this but we just. were dusky not did. we get a killer did it or did it the. feeling we're going to sob in the. past in the negative the didn't go out of the are just. going to build

9:05 pm
you know mary mother when. your little girl i don't know you don't want to hear. your voice out of that i mean. you could just tell her that i needed even remember you got in here meeting and they got it with me let me really well meaning. yesterday when i know. you were in their hands they. were the only thing they did i didn't you know i think i did it certainly is art. the dancers have costumes elaborately embroidered with silver thread mirrors and shells black the color of the snake with white spots or stripes.
9:06 pm
the mother says a lot is a lot of other color and 3. you can see they. go on learning to love them locally in order to satisfy that ever get a card ever get. so what they were going to use that as they were not there lol you got the use of that. so we would again 7 of them will you think yes exactly is that just a thought.
9:07 pm
you cannot bear. to say. it is. your doing that. it is a limp and thing. as event in. the event of this then. the only make up belly and dances bear is sort of which is extracted from snake venom this it's why they have sharp eyesight steak fandom is now used by the commercial cosmetics industry as an anti wrinkle agent. because of the. money. go out there was among those i would only.
9:08 pm
other one of the are going to warm down the most of it. doesn't they give me a bad day i said to get past made them he said get. breaking into bringing some news out of iran quest 3 turkish officials have been killed in the city of erbil that's in northern iraq now the turkish deputy consul general and 2 other staff members are believed to be the victims there's going to salvage of aids is on the line for us from baghdad so what more do we know about this incident i mean the last few minutes we've been getting details about the 3 diplomats who have been killed at an upscale neighborhood and it would be of ready the it is the capital of the kurdish region in northern iraq. we do not know what was the motive or ok doubt this attack yet but would be being told by security sources that the
9:09 pm
consul general the deputy consul general that 2 of his colleagues they were at this country which is close to the skin neighborhood called green city on the airport or ordinary member of the scene and came in and shot him and his colleagues at pointblank range the security forces have cordoned off the area and they're carrying out initial investigations so far what do you think told by security sources there were any active threats against diplomats in that area so this has caught them by surprise some don't want to to try and speculate but looking at the type of attack the way that this is happened with people doing committing a shooting apparently as these 3 were having lunch how common is that kind of tongue thing that method of diplomats. this is the 1st incidence with diplomats have been targeted in iraq and the last time we can think of is perhaps during the
9:10 pm
beginning of the war when there were lots of bombings which were taking place in baghdad and elsewhere where diplomats and others had been caught into it but this seems to be a unique incident of its kind with diplomats have been targeted and assassinated so we do not know busy why all what was the motive behind it but then you have to realize the kind of tensions that exist in the neighborhood the what the wider picture of the neighborhood that iraq has in. its multiple. its neighbors iran turkey. remnants of which security forces say that the sleeper cells are still active in various parts of iraq so there are a number of inside iraq and from outside of iraq which can at any point escalate but as a fit we do not know who targeted these diplomats and what was the reason behind the a security forces have only told us that these men came in and they were having
9:11 pm
a meal and they were killed. 1 at these attackers exactly knew who they were coming after and who they were going to target all right just looking at the geography of where this happened the non-college is we understand just outside of deal what does that tell us about this. yes i dis is a. 1 predominantly christian neighborhood it is a very lively bustling place where not just diplomats or people from all over or be come in have their meals it's a it's a very happening there's a lot of traffic at any time given time during the day so we know that this is a it's a busy area and now that the fight against isis has been over for a couple of years the security fears come down as we see diplomats and foreigners on the streets quite openly going into the marketplaces and going to the trees so
9:12 pm
the situation in the last 24 months or so has been. in these but this goes to show that the threat is not completely over and there are people who are still trying to assassinate or target others on the basis of what they want to do or let's sank osama bin have a good ask you to stand by with us a sound as we continue to get developments on this one let's go live now though to sin and cos all loose she's in istanbul i've had any official word on this incident . some before now there is nothing official yet but we have confirmed that 3 turkish consulate employees including the deputy consul general have been killed during this deadly attack the foreign ministry said that they will make a statement so we're waiting for a statement about what they have figured out until now but the investigation is ongoing from the turkish side as well. let me remind you one thing turkey it took
9:13 pm
ish military has been conducting a counter. against those workers party operations in northern iraq and in iraqi kurdistan and that has been actually ongoing for a while and the 2nd phase has been launched last week and earlier turkish army announced they could at least 7 are the kurdistan workers party fighters via a rates and yesterday turkish army say they are weapons so turkish army has been actually really oppressing against the kurdistan workers party this has been ongoing but i had to remind that recently a turkish and iraqi officials have decided to do operations against the p k k inside iraq not only in syndrome but also in other places to wipe them out so this is one case ongoing and turkish relations with the iraqi kurdistan have been strained following a referendum in iraqi kurdistan 2 years ago but recently that the relations have
9:14 pm
been a real stablished the new president. but him sally came to tricky and iraq in iraq's kurdish officials have been coming to turkey so. the timing is interesting because the relations have been mended after the tension with regard to the referendum it however there is no information about the small to off the attack what we have been hearing from the reports is that just 20 minutes after the turkish consulate employees have entered inside the restaurant to have their lunch . and the attack happened so now i have some expert discuss on turkish television is that this is a very planned attack that really targeted the turkish diplomats in that restaurant today i'm going to ask you to stay with us for a moment there as soon as we're looking let me point out to viewers on the screen these are pictures from moments ago from one cow or that's just on the outskirts
9:15 pm
just outside of beale which is of course one of the major cities in northern iraq it's kind of the headquarters for the kurdish administration up there and this seems to be the aftermath scenes that we're looking at after those 3 diplomats were killed what we believed to be a shooting so clearly lot of security as you'd expect in this in this town which is a predominantly a syrian town there let's bring in susan once again as you mentioned c.n.n. there was an earlier turkish operation which killed 7 p.k. k. it's the kurdish separatist group p.k. k. fighters are the authorities working to the assumption or suspicion that this might be a p k k operation. well there is nothing discussed as such so far but i have to underline that turkey has turkey iraq
9:16 pm
a kurdistan and the central government of iraq have been committed to for a counter p.k. k. . process in iraq so that is one thing but it is too early to make guesses or speculate about that we have to wait for official statements because there are so many do it and still many things at stake for for turkey for iraq and the kurdish regional government out there plus iran is a neighboring country so there are so many. there are so many that mentions of the situation however it seems like according to what we have been hearing in the reports and in the turkish media it seems like the turkish diplomats have been targeted directly but i have to say that the is important in one case because iraqi kurdistan the regional government has been the 2nd largest export or trade
9:17 pm
partner for turkey following the e.u. countries so the relations have always been very strong despite the fact of the. turkish construction companies other turkish companies have been in the kurdish in the kurdish region of iraq for 4 for more than one and a half decades so this is also important to see because arable has been known as a safe place and not only for the iraqis but also for the turkish diplomats and for the turkish businessman as well all right thanks so much sin of course all of that let's go bang through some of interview these following the developments from baghdad under some of this is one of the oldest inhabited towns in the world it's close to a deal in bill being of course for the seat for the kurdish should ministration in the north and in the north of iraq tell us the significance of this politically
9:18 pm
that. a this is this is a place from where the iraqi kurds try to establish their own state the went for a referendum to try and separate from iraq. and after the referendum we saw that the iraqi government rejected its results and there was a there was a war of words between the central government in iraq and the could this government and iraqi forces moved in and it took a large chunk of the area which was controlled by peshmerga fighters with taken those areas off their operated territory from isis fighters in the last few years the scene there is a number of threats so it's not just isis that operates in that area as an analyst sending you to take a fight to have also been targeted by iraq before by kurdish forces and then as to his forces in the northern parts in the phone furthermore the loss than there be towards the rest of the really in the last 48 to 72 hours be seen
9:19 pm
a campaign by it reinforces the targeting anti iran fighters in the b region is and so you can imagine there's a myriad of threats which exist around this area and this area once too has the intentions of separating from iraq we've just seen the newly appointed prime minister arrive in baghdad yesterday he had meetings with dissenting up and trying to resolve their differences comes to or the same and other things and their relationship seems to be progressing in in a better state it was in about a year and a half ago when the referendum to place so it is a very significant area in terms of you graphic location because that it's at the crossroads between and it has a border with syria iraq and turkey and also a very important place for iraq because it 6 has some of the most significant folded for the iraqi government has. all right we'll leave it there for now let's
9:20 pm
thank both of our correspondents for salah binge of a deuce been commenting on this from baghdad as well as to them cos all lose been trying again with the latest developments from what's been happening in stumble on this let's just bring you up to speed as we look at the latest pictures coming in from our that's just outside of a bill in northern iraq where the latest lines say 3 turkish officials have been killed including the deputy consul general understand they were shot dead. we're still waiting for details no claim of responsibility yet as to who carried this out however it does come against a backdrop of escalations with the turkish military carrying out operations against p k k fighters separatist fighters kurdish fighters who are who have taken bases in iraq. 7 fighters were killed earlier we'll
9:21 pm
9:22 pm
was some trick of nature these stem cells and white swan are on. which this whole procedure is a bad. joke like a bank but it's more sophisticated than in the letter to you is out by a born american michael phelps relational. it doesn't matter that worldwide 350000000 people are affected by genetic disorders closed by faulty d.n.a. these genetic defects can lead to a variety of conditions like cystic fibrosis which leads to conic and also site along the functions at the moment the system and here i am dr elizabeth healy in the u.k. to see how groundbreaking developments in gene therapy could one day transform the lives of people living with genetic disorders. l.l.s.
9:23 pm
but not marry bond on a is 16 years old and was diagnosed with cystic fibrosis at the age of one. american tell me from your perspective what is your day like living with cystic fibrosis. i am when i asked her i guess all out and take my interview arises office. and then harass again my x. tears. and i asked to you i know now you guys are failing. and they're nasty my physio and. i do spiral a.j. and i'm going to go out which i mean that helping me. and then off. to doing nothing up the lies well. there are still more passes. and then yeah that only chase also you have oh no so i learned. an hour
9:24 pm
a night. when mary was 1st diagnosed doctors thought she would only live until the age before. i decided i was dazed and not ready until marriage or. unknown house 10 i thought i'm going to haitian the novel. there's never a day goes by that and taught everybody forget the whole thing you know live it up so i know this was. married to use me to the children to see fibrosis you know mark on this our voice if i meet one of them there were no poss i just want to me or on one particular going to em. so now it's a question isolating condition to near yet there's always enough so i now was never so you're haitian now rush. so i only used to send your letters to h.r. . because they couldn't me if they said they saw me fly now last night at the
9:25 pm
moment mary is not really understanding everything about c.f. she she does now now that it is live show me that she does know that it cannot be kids. but things could be about to change scientists have proven for the 1st time ever that an experimental technique called gene therapy can improve the health of those with cystic fibrosis i've come into central london to meet the doctors and the clinicians involved in the gene therapy trial and to cystic fibrosis. western when they come. out english. to stick fibrosis is as you know a genetically inherited disease parents who pass those copies on to their child and they have cystic fibrosis during the 1st year of life most babies will experience and lung problems and those relates to the buildup of sticky mucus within the airways and that sticky mucus attracts bacterial infections and the bacteria
9:26 pm
infections become chronic and they eventually cause quite significant lung scarring in the u.k. there are around 10000 people with cystic fibrosis at the moment on our registry about one in 22 of us is a carrier of the mutated gene most of us won't realise and about one in 2000 babies are born with cystic fibrosis the genetic nature of this and other conditions mean that treatment has focused on managing the symptoms as best as possible but a new and experimental technique called gene therapy replace the faulty gene with a functioning one this is the largest and the longest duration gene therapy trial using a liquid formulation for cystic fibrosis that has ever happened in. $216.00 patients completed the protocol and took at least 9 over the course of the year and it was in that group which was defined as being the group we were going to look at that we saw a significant impact on lung function at the end of the year we can thank the patients and their families in earth because without patients like mary and her mother we
9:27 pm
just couldn't have completed this trial so we're really grateful. these results would not have been possible without the perseverance of scientists who spent years developing the genes and. we started this program at the start it would be very easy for patients to just hand the gene research and if it gets to the right area into the right cells in the lung it turned out that was much more difficult so how are you getting this healthy new gene into the areas and to do the job of the some teaching. for the try that is just finished but actually using a very simple minded cure it's a pet but we did this we used the gene and we mixed it with this. this form small complex that complex then into the lungs of cystic fibrosis patients the dose of gene therapy that the trial participants received does not permit me
9:28 pm
correct the faulty cystic fibrosis d.n.a. but scientists are working on finding a longer lasting solution clinical trial results have been very encouraging but they're not quite good enough to turn them into a treatment yet so we have plans for and not a trial where we give more to some gene complexes and more frequently basically in addition to that we have to developed by risto just very very efficient in getting genes into the lungs do you think you see the fires might be more efficient than using the static possibly using them and we certainly think so based on all. evidence we have the virus is at least 140 more effective fighting very hard to get. these success stories represent a huge step forward that people might manage to do you know city changes cheering
9:29 pm
the course of the treatment i thought i had no more injury i didn't need well though charity work a. were christian tradition was best so i prayed still going up let's get a little more was done. and how does that make you feel when you submit cheating so mean that i make sure you get to know i could die i die i could do that and i know i can damn the hope is that one day gene therapy will be approved for use and widely available to those with cystic fibrosis holders people that the study and work in to get this drug to work even better than it did is just pray they can get it done and they can get the funding and if it doesn't come soon enough mary she's helped other faithful if it's not. the next generation of children born with cystic fibrosis in a city some are. going to begin to say i sat on our corn in
9:30 pm
its wake. that really wasn't the sermonize. alymer back again. things can stay there. by the age of 85 nearly half of us will suffer from oxygen damage to the name which can lead to chronic pain and disability or perhaps because cartilage unlike other tissues doesn't have its own blood supply. so heels very slow. when i'm in hiroshima japan to meet the surgeon pioneering new techniques in regenerating on these. professor myths who are all she is one of the world's leading nice surgeons and a revered figure in the world of regenerative medicine. and
9:31 pm
the professor to be here itself please wait ok thank you. i think. you not only have one. jay tech is an enterprise focusing on tissue engineering and has spent over 10 years commercializing professor archies research. sort of saying yeah. that's nice to see that you're very welcome things are back. in 1900 for my doubts on paper was published by swedish group. the swedish team had developed a way of regenerating cottage in
9:32 pm
a lab and then re injecting it in liquid form directly into the knee however there was a weak point all with their technique. leakage in order to solve this problem i started to use the very same scale for the. yes you can imagine that. the foot would be here coming up yes it is a. meniscus it has no blood supply or if injury is the. song we are the light to resect so what you can do with this regenerative medicine is to take the patient's own cotton sheets from the same joint yes all the change of confidence is essential company i see you create this change and you have a concept. and that's why we're here yeah just half a gram of healthy cartilage is harvested it is then broken down with enzymes and
9:33 pm
implanted on a college in scaffold designed by professor ought to after just 4 weeks the cells will have multiplied to form a 4 square centimeter disk. the surgeon then makes a template of the lesion and uses that to harvest some perry all still tissue from the shin bone. this will be the cover used to hold the new cartilage in place so this is a model of someone's potentially regenerated cartilage but the beauty of it being the patient's own cells here is that it's not rejected that you need any medicine from the viewpoint i mean you know roger reaction oh told you nasty issue is a topic. today this method has an almost 90 percent success rate and is considered a leading treatment fanie cartilage defects all what are the limitations of this can it be done better we need a larger scheme. you see. that is invasive
9:34 pm
you see it painful after surgery so let's in this technique is desire i have another new procedure using the magnetic. the goal was to devise a less invasive procedure much like the original idea of simply injecting the cartilage into the knee we inject so many serious. 10000000 serious we open our scar tissue in the knee joint. cd inject a series scant and. inject cells blindly into the fluid they go all over and that made scarring so you'd rather just close to where there is actually enjoying to the right pinpoint targeting so how did you achieve that so i decided to use a small i am particle. to do that.
9:35 pm
then come a stimson count are both sides small i am part of the action stem cells in the eye and can fuck all this then they can be controlled that direction with a strong monday morning long road. in the with a magnetic force. from here there's an injection. attaching to the defect here it's just been channeled that way i can see very clearly by some sort of trick of nature these stem cells like to swallow aren't multiples which is this whole procedure hinges on that because then you can manipulate. that solution of stem cells with a magnetic field. so not having to cut open the knee in any way you can attach those themselves to just the area where the cottage is broken down the defect area how do you make them stay there is there
9:36 pm
a magnet on the skin just 10 minutes from the outside of you see ski you're really a minute they physically they start to be here to the effect to your ear it's amazing the bolotnaya this is a brand new. only here. japan is aiming to be at the forefront of regenerative medicine and scientists are researching possible treatments for previously incurable diseases such as liver cirrhosis retinal generation and even outsiders but a crucial hurdle for many stem cell therapies is positioning the cells within the body this is led some to call professor archies magnetic breakthrough an important step forward in regenerative medicine in 2015 this footage was shot by japanese television when professor archie performed the 1st ever magnetic cartilage restoration the patient was a semi professional tennis player and her cottage injury threatened to curtail her
9:37 pm
career. the procedure involves extracting some bone marrow to harvest stem cells after cultivation a few stem cells were injected and the magnets came out for the 1st time. a year on his back for a checkup. that morning and the. new . sports. in the home of the q c i didn't. get. to accompany us and. i knew about i mean it's a bit like the bullet train. and. yeah. i go it's ready for me which will reveal whether her wound has
9:38 pm
healed following the magnetic knee regeneration procedure. and. here we go it's ready. this potion was repaired yes because this was a complete idiot area that's very much noticeably better yes what he 1st injected it but huge defect of redness and now it's all white it's covered in cottage now. it takes almost into who he is when i can see it with this idea. and so i'm very happy. finished. at the moment
9:39 pm
professor all cheese technique is only applicable to relatively young knee joints but he's already working on ways to adapt it for older patients suffering from also off like to come 70 years old i'd like to walk with my knee joint so he's changing course here is a very very desirable so i'd like to provide. you with the. trying to seize is a parasitic illness that is found mainly in the poor rural regions of central and south america and it is estimated that in excess of 10000000 people are infected with the disease. i see and i'm in bolivia to meet a woman who made just to found
9:40 pm
a solution to this devastating disease. diseases caused by the parasite. which is carried by the triad to mean dog known locally as. when an infected someone leaves behind infected feces scratching the bite grabs the infected feces and the root once in the body the parasites multiply and spread. the face of blasts approximately 2 months causing my symptoms it then goes into remission and it can be decades later before the chronic stage begins where the parasite attacked the heart and it just of organs which can cause intestinal and cardiac disorders progressive destruction of the heart muscle can lead to heart failure and sudden death there is no vaccine. when i was there. is an expert on the deadly vinci insect. that i meant they were in job.
9:41 pm
loss but it is. me that at this time of day we work be getting activity that. we had that. he were making less but it's on us. that's. he's big they say she has got bungled up to this so i just take. a lot so. make little. how many intruders do you think are in this house than in the experience here you're going to rather know when i was really in the because he. knows the meaning to guess. 1000 in.
9:42 pm
the pain and suffering caused by infection as a devastating impact on communities like the indictee of the 250 people that live there are brum estimates that up to 80 percent of china's we need to. what has been the impact of childhood disease on your life and your families. do you have a chance disease you're so. thank. you. it's . never some with. me my dear. they're bankrupt but i but better than most. of the past 15 years the 2 people who has been working into libya using an insecticidal paint to rid its infected communities of the vin to create insect tell
9:43 pm
me about in this far this is the paint you have developed to combat charges. but mrs morse of. you. in other words the new paint is an advance on previous insecticidal paints because the insecticides arm bedded with an microcaps which slowly released them over 2 to 4 years containing the insecticides like this means that the concentration of chemicals can be lower and that several different pesticides which don't work if they are mixed together can be used. ok so do i have to dress up like that yes ok let's turn this there's nothing i'd like to do more than an oval on the $35.00 degree heat.
9:44 pm
when scholars. look at food. they're. not. doing they are love that's right. i'm. sure we're similar to some of this was for those. and then just. ok. currently each own costs approximately $200.00 us dollars to pay with the financial support coming from various organizations and private donors. in the last 15 years. have treated 6000 homes in 93 communities across the region which are home 224000 individuals incredibly the number of new cases of disease in these communities has dropped to almost 0. is because. yeah.
9:45 pm
yeah this is a very sad this is. back to the house. with the inside and outside painted the house will be clear of the insects within 24 hours. following its success fighting tigers disease the pain is now being used to come back thank you fever and malaria and communities and gone. lives in one of the 1st villages the people are treated in bolivia. can you. describe to me what your house was lived before the painting was done. so with lots of interest in your house.
9:46 pm
hey dummy me a lot of those saw me he had and that chuckles free you actually have the oh you've asked me a lot of thought i laughed been to death not the end. hello we've got a lot of dry weather across much of south america at the moment to last the clear skies you can see the center case for europe why and up across
9:47 pm
a good part of brazil is showers that just around the western side of the amazon pushing down into peru some thick cloud too just around the central areas of chile some snow over the high ground here but the santiago around 60 degrees over the next couple of days a 15 laugh or want to say was all but stay off and submit 10 years ago wanted to see a little more clouds coming back into power but for the most part more dry weather plenty of showers supposing north of the amazon not across the tropics as well but expect and a scattering of showers to across the caribbean we've got some wet weather just pushing towards the game but i could see some showers just cropping up in trinidad and tobago over the next. fed by the cloud across a good part of the caribbean but some showers there across northern areas of cuba if you shall is just around central america as you go on into thursday is a similar picture perhaps a touch drier just around the yucatan peninsula which he wanted to show us the looking cross eastern side of the region may well into the u.s.
9:48 pm
we still got some rather wet weather just pushing up across the great plains but the big story over the next couple of days will be the building heat. sponsored by catalona. i really felt liberated as a journalist i was. going to the truth as i would love for this job. this is al-jazeera. hello i'm sammy's a dan this is the news hour live from. to begin with breaking news out of northern iraq with a turkish deputy consul general and 2 staff have been shot dead. a new era for the
9:49 pm
military and civilian coalition sign a deal for a transitional government. an emergency meeting is called by the world health organization to discuss and the bowl the outbreak in the democratic republic of congo. former drug lord is said to be sentenced any moment now in the u.s. . local knowledge can god himself open championship success than all the marshlands on hung soil as he targets a 1st major title in 5 years. let's begin with a developing news story out of the northern iraqi city of appeal where a senior turkish diplomat is being shot dead within the past hour 2 other council staff also reported to have been killed the person killed was serving as the turkish deputy consul general in erbil the incident happened just after 2 pm local
9:50 pm
time inside a restaurant in the city these are the latest pictures from the scene in the suburb of on cower in the bill. we lost to our correspondent in a stumble in a moment and 1st let's get the lessons from a salvage device on the line from baghdad so is the picture becoming clearer of what happened today yes i mean according to security sources. turkish diplomat and his 2 colleagues arrived at the restaurant and after a few minutes when they sat down attackers came and shot them point blank these. restaurant ready in an upscale area. close to the green city neighborhood on the air for crawford and it's frequented by a number of. as. it's ever been and it is the.
9:51 pm
kurdish regional government the kurdish authorities. in their. friend and seeking separation from iraq 1. we do not know what was the motive behind the attack and no one has claimed responsibility but security forces are saying that these people exactly who they wanted to target and how to target them can you speak osama to reports or claims that there was some kind of argument or altercation the full these men were shot. the details are sketchy because we've heard some unconfirmed reports of some sort of a. scuffle and some loud voices that people heard but again this is initial reports coming from that area. and no official has so far confirmed we do know that the threat level in the last 24 months or so
9:52 pm
has been reduced especially in northern iraq after the different devices that a number of people that you see out in the street are full of diplomats and others as well as. you see that security level being dropped being brought down at the entrances of malls and other places as well as it used to be very very difficult to move around during the fight against isis security was high so essentially the seeing that diplomats as well as others have reduced the level of security but the trend it appears still persists on thanks so much some of inch of a let's cross over now this isn't close although she joins us now from istanbul what's the word from ankara on this. turkey's foreign ministry just issued a press statement. where its whatsapp groups say that turkey is defer to console
9:53 pm
general was killed outside the consulate building today and in the statement doesn't mention dia there too but what we have been learning from the local sources are that the other 2 who have who got killed during this attack are also employees of the turkish consulate but we don't have any information about their identities yet the says the in for this is the only information given by the turkish authorities so far they told us they told in a statement that they invest in the security forces are investigating the incidents the details of the incident so when we're on the stand the turkish army been conducting operations against p k k those a little bit about that context and whether officials are making any link between today's incident and those operations. turkey has intensified its counter picking for asians in the northern iraq is or in other terms iraqi kurdistan for
9:54 pm
