you know that's what i did this shelter is caring for more than 200 people the building is at capacity but donations have been forthcoming guaranteeing everyone a safe place to rest a decent meal and medical attention for those who need it we're at the fox hill community center in nassau where volunteers in some cases are up to their waists in donations but the need here in the bahamas is so great that any donations of food water medicine hygiene kits like these donated by the red cross are all very much welcome. shelters for the displaced can be found all around nassau which is home to 70 percent of the country's total population but as more evacuees arrive space becomes limited relief workers have begun setting up tents ahead of the arrival of even more evacuees the concern now is that nassau may not be prepared for the long term care of the thousands whose communities have been destroyed many will rob lowe al-jazeera nassau bahamas. least 29 people have been killed and 10 others injured

in 3 attacks and back in a fast the government says 14 people were killed when a convoy carrying humanitarian supplies was attacked in the area shortly after that 15 people lost their lives and 6 were wounded when a truck it's a mine in summer. another 4 people were injured during an attack in yet a state of emergency is in place in 7 of the 13 regions more than 500 people have been killed by armed groups and so in the last 4 years speak to catherine sawyer she joins us live from kenya in cairo rather very. so tell us more about these attacks. well we have spoken to the regional police. not the central north region family and they have really confirmed this incident in fact one of the act talks happened in an area

where we were filming just a few days ago so a lot mine was planted in this mini van that was carrying. rolled over it 15 people died in that in that attack and our police escort also told us that immediately we left one of the villages that had been deserted where we're filming so immediately we left the gunmen came to that village and started firing just perhaps to show the authorities that we're still here as in the situation in that part of the not feel quite well look along the way we found many many abandoned home and many villages where people had fled and where we found people we could stand the tension and be as we talk to them in fact we found some people who are actually preparing to leave because they've had they've had about attacks in other villages like i mentioned the situation very volatile and just getting dangerous as you move. thought the north and into the region we could not access

that region of paul because of the security situation and then on to mali talking about a sami is is a road from booking a fossil all the way to mali and that's where these attacks have been happening. and why is it proving so difficult for the government to try and get a grip on the situation in the north and east of the country. where the government has deployed soldiers to different parts of the country that occurring now to operations we've been carrying about different operations here in the north where we are but they seem overwhelmed as well because you're talking about very large territories and what we are mean when you talk to people here people who've been following developments in people who have been displaced that we're talking to that saying that this gunman the footpath that some of them are groups in the country coming from neighboring. and mali they've also been carrying

out attacks in those countries within that region and coming out also to carry out attacks and it's becoming even more complicated because some of the groups are being told are using existing tensions between communities and trying to recruit different communities into the ranks of the situation like i mentioned very. the government the security forces doing what they can we have also spoken to the w a p the world food program say more than 200000 people have been displaced in the last 3 yet they're calling this an unprecedented human need terry and it mightn't be. all right thanks so much catherine sawyer that. still ahead on al-jazeera. that. trying to learn and in a country a war wife gets increasingly desperate for families crammed into camps in the yemen .

how the change of seasons pretty obvious now in western europe look at where the climate is coming from that's a northerly fetchin is just the latest in a series of what are cold fronts cold fronts on the brain colder air but the thing is do they stick because it's the real changes season well i think probably find they do this one here which is stored in the middle of europe is to go some warm twenty's decent size $28.00 in bucharest but this whole mass of green in circulation suggests rain thunderstorms and the real does move feeling for germany for austria for the czech republic for example and then coming down off of that northerly breeze hitting sprain and then the warm or so the western med means the 1st proper autumn western med storm disappointment rains i think now if you just

draw a bit south of the cities can we saw effect in iraq or 2 newsy the clouds been showing itself there for a while that's still quite warm and even in the forecast you've got temperatures in the middle to high twenty's and very few showers well i think we will see it's a dramatic sunstone especially so as we get to tuesday for example after that wednesday south of that and in the sahara has still got some pretty big tropical showers to drifting slowly west was going off the west coast these potential hurricanes were course they drop a lot of rain in land as well. the weather sponsored by catalyst. for the common belief is the journey to. means unimaginable hardship. i prefer to lie down because they might get up into chancing life and live on a dangerous journey through the jungle. down on to the rails with a nearly died. down children go to school and live because of the prank risking it

all the democratic republic of congo on al-jazeera. welcome back you're watching al-jazeera time to recap our headlines now the u.k.'s prime minister is in dublin the head of what could be a day of new drama as he tries to pull britain out you top of his agenda will be the irish backstop that is seen as the biggest hurdle to securing any breakthrough deal the lebanese army group has shot down an israeli drone outside the border town of its fighters say they now have the aircraft israel and hezbollah exchange fire

lost a 3rd of its seats in moscow's regional parliament. that still holds the majority of the opposition communist party has almost doubled its numbers. some of the largest protests in russia in years after dozens of opposition candidates were banned service and reports. lubow sobel has become the face of a new protest movement in moscow the 31 year old lawyer was banned from running in the election for the city's regional parliament and has been arrested several times for organizing protests even though her name is not on the ballot she still had to the polling station the opposition led by election other only decided that a so-called smart vote that's a vote against the ruling united russia party of president vladimir putin would be more attractive than boycotting the elections altogether but. it's a protest vote it's not a vote for your candidate we go to the street was

a protest and now we were out in protest it is a form of protest to show that we disagree with the politics of the current authorities. sunday's election follows weeks of some of the largest protests seen in russia for years tens of thousands of demonstrators urging the government to let her and other independent opposition candidates run riot police reacted by arresting 106 protesters have been tandems up to 5 years in prison president putin justified the arrest by saying protesters broke the law because they didn't have a permit he also doesn't see a problem in banning independent opposition candidates was in some countries there are 30 or 50 or 100 candidates because of their work does not change from this it's not quantity but quality that is important i think that we have decent candidates but some russians say that despite a decades long rule of the united russia party something could change because of

the protests. i'm voting for the 1st time my life why i don't know i think of. i did not fear my importance i did not think you can change anything now it appears that we cannot prove. in most cases a protest vote against united russia will be a vote for the communist the 2nd largest party in russia this may look like a democratic election but a few things are missing most importantly the names of independent opposition candidates and not on the ballot papers by the outcome of the regional elections are not expected to make much of a difference if the opposition strategy for this so-called smart forward is successful it will give a signal to the government that opposition is growing just before the polls close the opposition's call to participate in the vote didn't seem to have been heeded similar to previous elections turnout was only around 20 percent steps al-jazeera moscow. the taliban says the u.s. has the most to lose after president donald trump canceled the meeting with the

group in the united states u.s. special envoy. there's also been recalled been negotiating with the taliban in cards of a nearly a year the afghan government says peace will only be possible if the taliban stops killing people and holds talks with the country's leaders tony burke reports from kabul president trump's early morning tweet cancelling the meeting with the taliban surprised many including the afghan government but it has actually welcomed the decision the main goal of our peace road map is a ceasefire and a direct negotiation with the taliban. so these 2 components are very important. the taliban refuses to talk directly with the afghan government which it regards as illegitimate and corrupt but it did agree to negotiate with the u.s. these forces invaded afghanistan 18 years ago after the 911 attacks on america there have been 9 rounds of talks it's october last year but during that time

taliban fighters have carried out numerous attacks and suicide bombings and america has also continued its air campaign which is hit the taliban but this year has also caused the biggest number of civilian casualties the latest taliban bombing was in kabul last thursday in which 12 people were killed including an american soldier 2 days later the u.s. president in a tweet ditched what he said was going to be a secret meeting at camp david. even as the taliban was claiming responsibility for thursday's attack zalmay khalilzad the u.s. chief negotiator was only way to katter for further talks that were later described as positive but the afghan government said the talks gave the taliban recognition the taliban has responded angrily to trump canceling the talks in a statement released on its website they said the agreement was finalized on saturday both sides agreed to all points they talked about intra afghan talks to begin on september the 23rd but warned that their struggle will continue and the

u.s. would suffer more the u.s. has been criticized for offering the taliban too much for raising fears that the country could descend into civil war once the bulk of american forces withdraw if there is a new agreement between the problem in the united states government about the role of the party fighting forces. that will be devoid of worth and not only put up can stand that would be good for the world situation part of that region in the international community and that is something that troubles many afghans. we know the taliban is not trustworthy and they do whatever they want and they misuse islamic laws in a terrifying way this country won't be better with them in the government. we are free of the taliban come out not only will women's rights be violated but also all human rights. all sides appear to agree that militarily they can be no winner in this conflict but also achieving

a lasting peace is not going to be easy either where this leaves the peace process is anyone's guess it depends largely on what the taliban chooses to do next either escalate the violence or return to the negotiating table in a different frame of mind afghanistan waits to see which one it will be tony berkeley al-jazeera kabul. quaids leave the house for spurned a meeting with u.s. president donald trump after being admitted to hospital for medical tests 90 year old amir share of the arrived in the u.s. a week ago he was due to meet president trump in washington on thursday last month the media reported the emea had recovered from what it called a medical event. 4 and a half years of war in yemen have forced millions of people to leave their homes. camp in the province of very houses more than 600 really turn lead displaced families they're becoming increasingly desperate to be reports. that.

thanks. thanks. thanks. for coming is a ghost station in the south of the democratic republic of congo. there's been no train service. the 5 months but now it's running again. the train left lubumbashi

the 2nd largest city 5 days ago. no one knows when it will arrive. and the train everyone is waiting for has a surprising name holme del or the swallow. he. thought. news of the swallows arrival spreads like wildfire via the bush telegraph all word of mouth. it's the cheapest rail service in the d.r. congo like a local bus it stops a virtually every station and draws huge crowds. of them a street vendors at every stop even in the remotest villages the station becomes an instant market. the.

ambassador c. i don't know regretted the idea of home program yet i wrote that there are several. there are no. good. but there's not much time for selling. the train is already packed. the passengers clamber for remaining seats like i. said. clement has been riding this train for 20 years and knows what to expect. the concept but it got there i think because the self emphasise it said this is

deducted it was the. poly chord it. was said to simulate let's. say play you young today. or not some of the distance to your day for these people for the business. but this i say he said so this it's a sonic as i said if. the people cram into whatever space they can find nearly 2000 people all together 3 times the officially permitted capacity. for those who want to able to find a place or who can't afford a ticket there's always the root. images or you. know what it is i think he said that it is only a few simple words he will let you go. but only did what you said that.

was. located in the heart of the continent the democratic republic of congo is the largest country in sub-saharan africa. the swallow crosses half the country from lubumbashi to aleppo and is the only link between remote villages and the outside world. the swallow has been around for more than 50 years. the old engine was bought 2nd hand in south africa. a relay of 10 drivers is needed to cover the 1600 kilometer journey. yes but. the driver is 63 years old

mr malone go has one of the hardest parts of the trip. 120 kilometers of trouble see above the river where we've never done that i said as i got so remember that is an assumption that i thought about said you're already a physical that's why the trip was to sever is that there is yet i don't have a problem. mr malone go is the monster on board and supplements his income by allowing 10 passengers to travel in the driver's cabin. it's as close as he gets to 1st class on the train. and. back in 2nd class the challenge is to avoid stepping on someone as you try and move around the carriage. it's something claim

all can't get used to. the player but it was said on bus in the us he said it could be said all pervasive myth about the what was said to come in my head it made this sense us example did you not think with this thing to see a lot of it this was just want us to call bottom up there on the sunday before they put up with the good news and. let you know the to lose passengers take as much luggage as they can. it is on them it's an equally so protocol not needed. on a cd expose it equally possible i love. you and. that you lose money if the files onto. the old. supposed to keep playing along as of old to see the mob feel like you do extraordinary things sometimes happen. when i was in on

that as i was on my side i know you. don't want to see what you want to do and i didn't want those again those are in my own son. so mostly some subtle. but. he does. argue we are for mean come on notice that you took. the train can also be a death trap to load they fought to be taught it's a sore foot because i said i said i'm a sucker if i did not think of it if it were such gus nossal whip our gun laws deal to force him out to help us in my life and. last year the snares named several passengers.

and those in 3rd class risked their lives here on the route. they can easily get knocked off the moving train. leap. now wait a 2nd coming up before going up for. that is out of the goodness of them was going to be spoiled boy what about. his fellow travelers up on 1st class have to remain alert a lapse in attention could be fatal. plane. but they believe really. good then. see. the danger comes not just from above but also from the signs. even if the moderate

speed of 30 kilometers an hour on a tree branch can cut like a machete. says there are loads of dollars so there's a lot of other. so forth your better borders says. these ready are some of the remotest areas of the d.r. congo. as dawn breaks free men are preparing for

a long journey. they're traveling salesman training in kosov a flower and palm oil in the villages they work for osama. bin laden on a mobile gardner should be a should know the only india what it was you were doing what you do does your mom want to malala article you one of them was to kill them all so much do you go one on 10 point one your food food food. man and his companions a setting out on an arduous 160 kilometer journey through villages in the country south. it will probably take them around 4 or 5 days. nothing until you believe what you see.

most of the villages are in the middle of nowhere and reaching them means travelling on the tracks so the congolese improvise. they converge and reinforce their bicycles to withstand the poor conditions and up to 300 kilos of merchandise. you. know. you cool down the. market if you know. you know. what it would have put a foot in if you don't know what you know.
