dispossessed of their way of life. 6 in july 2009 protests broke out oh nearly 200 people were killed with reports that over a 1000 we were arrested. in response the beijing government launched what it called a strike hard campaign and we got areas to suppress dissent. would it began to do is really systematically stepped up its police presence as well its party infrastructure. to begin to surveil the weaker population. and so some of them struck back in really horrific ways. there was a suicide car bombing in tiananmen in beijing. there was this attack on

a train station and that left you know over 20 innocent train travellers massacre is quite brutally. that's really when the rhetoric of terrorism really took off as something you could use a label we girls as a group that there are potentially terrorists and so you know using any means necessary is justified. in 26 to saddam. went back to singe and to marry his girlfriend not.

after their honeymoon in the united states and turkey no deal fell pregnant a good. positive this has she's pregnant and that and the best have been his moment of me life of and there was actually like i'm going to be to have i'm going to have like i'm going to have baby like as lois and i have. saddam returned to australia in early 2017 for work while nat villa waited in singeing for her spouse visa to be approved. but then beijing suddenly launched its mass re-education campaign and xinjiang. suddenly she called me our government start taking people's passport. the. singeing effectively became a large open air prison with severe limitations on freedom of movement on weekends

and other minorities as well as invasive surveillance of almost every aspect of their daily lives. the 1st reports began to emerge of week has been rounded up and detained in camps. in the community we heard stories of people's direct messages of their family members were taken there one was panicking there one was 20 find out whether they family members was safe and. we start to hear everyone's family being detained like ordinary people average people have family members being detained and then i realized something is going on. we get is who visited muslim countries or had lived overseas seem to be among the 1st to suffer who are going to the turkey's old arabia or any muslim country they putting in the people to the

jail or concentration camp. people started to leave disappearing and communities were being emptied of adult men and women. saddam wasn't able to go to singeing to be with in the deal or for the birth of their son. the chinese consulate in sydney refused him a visa i wasn't there when he. learned he bore. are you imagine how hard for. having a baby by herself i wasn't there next to her. so it was. soon after law to be was born saddam received shocking news security forces had arrived at the deal as family home. other than the train to the work

and then i got a message from my wife's friend saying oh your wife been taking ages. crying in the train you know like even the people in trying to ask me what's happening what's happening and i can tell them that the chinese government took her and i don't know where. that that they did. their. 2 weeks past but then saddam heard that no deal had been released but she remains trapped in synching with looked to be prevented from traveling and in constant fear of rearrest. choose scared she's always harping please let me out from here he's getting all the old like every day person doesn't know he's there.

in adelaide saddam's friend al mass also received frightening news from singeing his wife zainab had been picked up by the police. have been arrested by. chinese police they dressing undercover i think there's more than i don't mind police officers. zainab family watched police put a black hood over her head and put her into a van she was 7 weeks pregnant. i can't leave her like that put a flight ticket very next there left are empty. so i spent 3 months time in orange too and then i only can get the information she has been arrested because of the reason she did study in egypt. masson is

a medina spent several weeks in the capital of singeing a room she looking for his wife before being contacted by the police they asked me to come to. police station to talk to me face to face and i when i went they gave me the piece of paper so i need to get out of the country in 24 hours. after al mass flew back to australia the chinese authorities arrested his 50 year old mother. she's a high school mass teacher she's been working for chinese government for so early years were. teka from the house fave police officer come to the house and unlock the door and then arrest her. in april 2019 almas received an e-mail from an official at the australian department of foreign affairs in canberra. she told him that the chinese

government had sentenced his wife to 7 years in jail for quote assembling a crowd to disturb social order and then they said that my wife was assembling a crowd of she can't even go shopping by herself like she's ever escape it. they arrest her like she did assembling a craft to disturb social order that's impossible. kill my heart. they're like so important for me it's my responsibility to protect them. protect. these a satellite images of suspected camps where we get so detained china initially denied

these camps existed but research isn't academics around the world have identified them using internet map technology essentially looking for a large highly securitized facility where almost every aspect of the movement inside these areas is completely restrained looking for a wall surrounding the whole facility with watch towers on the edges of it and specifically you're looking for internal fencing barbed wire 3 major high fencing. the scale of this mass internment program is enormous the chinese government refers to the camps as reeducation centers and researches have now identified nearly $100.00 suspected facilities like these across in jenin it's basically clear that a huge percentage of the middle age range especially aged between 18 and 45 years a very large percentage of them are in some form of internment or prison.

researches like adrian zen's have also accessed chinese government documents online to identify the full scale of what the country is doing to its muslim ethnic minorities. for example budget reports government reports work reports and also procurement bits construction bits. we're also very detailed that said we need to reeducation camp built in this area and it needs to be this big and needs to have surrounding walls barbed wire towers surveillance equipment cameras and so on and so forth they were buying a police batons tasers. you know different instruments that could be used in torture like cattle prods. stun guns pepper spray all these sort of things that you would find in a prison setting. this video was filmed by human rights

activists and shows the inside of one of the camps cells fitted with double line daws. keypad locks and cameras. slogans on the wall praising chinese president xi jinping and in the so-called classrooms railings and why are separating the teaches from the students. the government's glossy videos claim that the week is a happy with this so-called education. course you are far more used to. the chinese

government has reportedly described its new campaign as quote breaking the roots of extremists and so what they're doing when they say they want to break the roots break the lineage is they want to eliminate the basic institutions the basic elements of weaker culture weaker society they're trying to transform the entire society. 37 year old melbourne plasterer hi rule in my is one of 3 a story in citizens who've been jailed in singeing here he speaks out for the 1st time. it's been a bit hard to explain at that in my feeling at that time there never been have been like that before in my life. in august 2017 while travelling on his astray in passport high ruler was questioned and then detained at chengdu

airport in sichuan province. when i go to the detention center. they put. chain ogham are my ankle put on or have got on my hands so just. because i don't know what's the reason why i should to this what does this tell me . hi rula wasn't allowed to call the astray an embassy or his family. security forces put him onto a plane and flew him to singeing. he says he was brought here. to vist detention center near a room cheap and put in a cell with around 40 other men. there is no in law space to you just in the lie down probably and then turn around or something like that you can't do

that if you just sleep in 2 hours after 2 hours we wake up and then you're standing in this their way car you're going to sleep something. classified as a so-called potential terrorist high rule in my industry in citizen was forced to one to go 6 hours of indoctrination every day praising the chinese communist party and president xi jinping. you have to watch the brainwashing program t.v. there is t.v. in the detention center in there in that room did that t.v. that people is talking about. the combat communist party's rules and. is good something like that. 2 weeks into his detention high roula says he received a visit from an australian official who introduced himself as mock from the embassy

in beijing tried to ask the officials chinese officials this guy asked me. why you guys put this put him to the detention center and look him up about 2 weeks more than 2 weeks what's the reason and then the chinese official says. still. to this question. a week later hi rula was released to be with his wife and stepson. but the or thora he's ordered him to leave xinjiang and banned him from visiting for 5 years. high rules wife was stopped from leaving with him. she just kept saying. leave me alone let me alone take me it is you. i can't i can't love. that feeling as you know breaking higher.

that's we will just demonstrate in a safe way as we want that we would that we won't get killed. i don't want to die today i want to have a good country i don't want anyone to die today. roger police in chile have fired tear gas and lead pellets at some of the 1000000 people and the largest anti-government demonstration in decades president sebastian pinera says he's heard the message of people protesting against the rising cost of living and inequality vietnamese people smuggled into the u.k. may have been among the 39 people found dead in a container truck on wednesday early reports said they were all chinese the container was found in an industrial estate in london in essex rather east of london. turkey says the kurdish withdrawal from syria's northern border is going as planned despite reports of sporadic fighting in the region kurdish forces have until tuesday to completely withdraw from

a so-called safe saw in which runs 30 kilometers into syria turkey and moscow have sent in more troops to patrol the area and clear it of remaining kurdish fighters. a tense day of anti-government protests is underway in lebanon security forces in beirut have removed protesters who are using their bodies as roadblocks or people are calling for civil disobedience until the government steps down they're frustrated with corruption in the spiraling economic crisis yemen's internationally recognized government in southern separatists have reached an initial agreement to stop fighting the country's information minister says a deal will be signed within 2 days the separatists seized control of the port city of aden in august medical workers in hong kong the holding a rally in the city's financial center they're protesting against what they say is police brutality the city's months long demonstrations have often turned violent with tear gas and rubber bullets used against protesters well those are the headlines on al-jazeera tell the world continues next thank you for watching.

the chinese government has set up internment camps in the north western region of sudan jang it calls them reeducation centers and it's using them to detain thousands of the week ethnic group without charge the we do is mainly muslims and speak a turkish language. it has also encouraged large numbers of han chinese to move to the region to shift the ethnic balance. the police routinely arrest men and women young and old and put them in the camps where they are indoctrinated for hours at a time with government propaganda. these include week as who've left china and obtained a stray and citizenship but have been arrested while simply visiting singeing.

nearly every astray and we get family has a relative in one of the camps. we are going survivor's guilt here because we live in a free country and safe and sound yet but we're living this emotional prison. we are walking about walking dead. that's how i can describe our communities experiences and we feel shame we feel guilt and because we can't do anything about help them and we doing what we can but not good enough help to help. them terrans 80 year old father was among those arrested and put in a camp. he's been loyal to the chinese government all his

life. just average ordinary turkish speaking one of us who never done anything against government. adam's father was detained for almost a year he was finally released in august 28th scene but died only a few weeks later. i couldn't call my mom. or any of my family members and i don't even know if. they are the funeral of the us. the last time adam's mother answered the phone she was at a police station having been arrested for receiving calls from abroad. i used to call my mom like 3 days every week she said. don't call me again. because i can't pick up before in any way so

that was my last talk with my mom and. i missed that every week. i try not to talk about it that time but in breakfast table my kids ask sometimes like do you have parents. it's hard to explain them what's going on.

even those weak is not detained in camps subject to systematic intrusion and surveillance. the singeing region is now widely equipped with the latest surveillance technology appearing to use artificial intelligence. every 200 it just is checkpoints that check your i.d.'s check your some odd for. their just put deal phone and then this scan everything and if there is a like watson facebook twitter anything like religious scholar like speech like praying. that kind of abyssinia funny or in trouble. every week over the age of 12 is forced to have the biometric data captured including voice

blood d.n.a. samples and eye scans. they had to speak into a device in order to get a unique voice signature for each person and then they did a 3 d. faced scan which meant that they had you had to have yourself a scan from all directions making different expressions on your face so they would get a clear reading of all of your emotions. this corporate video shows the latest facial recognition technology being used in chinese cities the government is now using it to track members of the weak a community not just in sin jank but across china. that's something that they're quite proud of that they can detect racial difference or ethnic difference simply you know based on that appearance. a researcher at an astray university has been in. in developing methods better to identify ethnic minorities in china

using artificial intelligence i. leave you one kwan at curtin university has been working on the chinese government funded research that examines the faces of weaknesses and how their features could be better detected in facial scanning. is racial profiling that's essentially what this technology is being used for to distinguish we're from harm and the university has said that lee you won kwan was solely focused on the provision of quote technical advice to the chinese research team and that curtain unequivocally condemns the use of ai for any form of ethnic profiling that would quote negatively impact and or persecuting any person or group. following the revelations in this film however curtain investigated its research approval procedures but has yet to report on its findings they will say well this is my area of expertise wow i can use this stuff

to identify a weaker as opposed to a harm you know with party state does about as not my responsibility i think that shameful and shocking i don't think straight researchers should be involved in that and it violates human ethics without a doubt. chinese police also use an app to track the purchases phone data and travel routines of weakness. human rights watch says that the app was developed by c e t c a chinese government owned military tech company. in 2017 the university of technology in sydney u.t.s. signed a $6700000.00 u.s. dollar deal with c t c to establish a research center that included ai and surveillance projects. but following the revelations about c t c's role in singeing u.t.s.

has reviewed this relationship and ended its video surveillance project with the company i think the u.s. and other universities here astray the have connections with any. party state company particularly in the military security sector it's to end those contracts and to pull out of those collaborative arrangements i mean essentially by doing that we were being complicit in the human rights abuses that are occurring in shin jiang and in china more widely. the chinese government plan seems to be systematically to eliminate the pill is of we get culture like religion and language. using online satellite maps it's possible to track the destruction of mosques in suggesting. this

large mosque and who tongue was demolished in 2019. large areas of the stablished we get housing have also been pulled down. you're saying that being systematically demolished and in its place is becoming high rise apartment buildings which are a lot easier to control. there's also serious concern for the children of the 1000000 week is believed to be held in camps. those d.v.d.'s that leaked out and we start seeing the opening and a peep. even identify some of their nieces nephews actually inside of that often

each. chinese government documents show a large increase in the building and upgrading of children's nurseries and boarding schools in singeing. it seems as though children are being deliberately separated from their families. what's happening to the children is that. if both parents are taken to the camps after the children are removed from the community they are a part of and they're placed in boarding schools or orphanages there's certainly been a massive increase in the building of nurseries and other education facilities for children. children are now in a process of reeducation or you know chinese assimilation. that's also how you inhibit what's called intergenerational transmission of culture

and religion meaning their parents' ability to pass on the cultural and spiritual heritage to the next generation if you can control that then you basically have control over the entire next generation of these ethnic groups well you're doing this to the babies that gives me all the time what's going to happen if i can see myself again. and that's my wife as well. meanwhile inside the camps their parents are being put to work mounting evidence points to a system of forced labor emerging in singeing in october 28th mean chinese state television showed these detainees working at sewing machines in a camp in who tun. i'm quite used to uncovering dirty secrets of the chinese

government but when i realized the magnitude and the the impact the implications of what i found it was it was really something else. adrian zen's has been going through chinese government documents and media reports online and found striking evidence of what seems to be happening behind the camp walls. basically there's a huge scheme going on a huge plan and shinji to put all kinds of people into different forms of involuntary labor being moved around a bit like figures on a chessboard you know and they're put into places where the government can control them this kind of corporation is not voluntary it's being enforced. government videos promote the new scheme and this young we go woman talks up the

positive aspects of her new job. and. there's evidence that detainee labor is being used to attract businesses to singeing offering $700.00 u.s. dollars per employee for example if a factory trains and then employs a camp detainee they get $5000.00 room and be per worker over the course of 3 years. they also get intensive subsidies for example they can use a factory building for free for the 1st 2 years the most sort of shocking or problematic aspect of this whole scheme in change young is that it's planned in such detail and enforced with such urgency. now that more so that you can fish you know you hold your breath so all. those who

are in the camps are supposed to get jobs permanent factory jobs the reason is that in these jobs the government can control them they can just take off their altogether it's very easy to control people in these environments they also can't take off on friday to go to the mosque they also can't fast they cannot do basic religious practice. no it drinks lives in melbourne her sister deal nor is forced to work in one of these factories. deal nor is a qualified nurse and has 2 children. in 2017 she and her husband were both arrested and sent to the camps. my sister is in the us she didn't know how to is a mega closed. in may 2019 deal nor was

transferred from the camp to work for a textile manufacturer. using her employee id card it was possible to trace her company to this technology park 30 kilometers north of the capital a room. deal nor told her sister that she's only allowed home to see her children and parents once a week her husband was still missing. it's their husbands to live or die we don't know what happened is a bad thing happened i don't know anything. in june 29th seen having heard nothing for several months girl nor received a disturbing video call. it was deal nor scared of the audio being monitored she hand wrote notes asking her sister in melbourne to speak out about her plight despite the risks.

on the autumn and. how did this push up comedy how. is he is again is good but initially couldn't. deal nors node spelled out what she wanted gul nor to tell the world. she said. 160 people are brought in shackled and handcuffed and it's big they have no choice if they say something they will end up in jail you could be sure they could. pull them a little bit come on we are. going to court the. gulnaz suggested that her sister hinted at wanting to end her own life.

should killick did it be certain to look into it but change it but i. mean i think. that. these brands sold in a stroller have all reportedly used cotton from syngenta. cotton on and target a straight began investigations into their relationships with suppliers and factories their. cotton on even visited the region in september 28th ina and met a supplier whose factory is only 6 kilometers from a large internment camp. as a result of their reviews cotton on and target a stray no longer source cotton from singeing. ikea also conducted an order to of their yarn supplier in subject and say they found there was no forced labor taking place western companies stand in increasing risk of

having products made by forced or at least highly involuntary labor somewhere in the supply chains it's going to become inevitable esther scheme is unfolding and getting bigger and bigger. saddam hussein has not seen his wife in a dealer for over 2 years. look free turn 2 in or guess 2019 and saddam was desperate to spend it with him in australia i'm totally broke actually a lot financially mentally physically i used to be a strong big guy but this thing to totally ruin my life. you know that. this kid that. he looks like both of you know.

if it does after 8 months of trying to secure a story in citizenship for his baby saddam and his lawyer finally picked up look fees passport finally his. citizen. passport he's going to big stick. saddam hopes that he'll be able to use it soon and that the dealer can come with him. so. it's not dog. owner. it's you doing everything again to get to that but. the chinese ambassador to australia was invited to be interviewed for this program but he declined however in june $2900.00 he appeared at an australia china business council event in canberra for many reasons but underlined china's magnificent

achievement. the most fundamental one is that i'm swerving but here in to the leadership of the chinese communist party. a.b.c. reporter sophie mcneill asked the ambassador about china's treatment of the weak is why is the communist party doing this now it's a training. and education center to help people who have affected by radical idea ideology to that interview is myself i am. what's wrong with them why do they need maintaining ration why this is to happen to find the jobs what do you have to make a better living they have jobs or is it just because they're muslim no no no. no after the a.b.c. in australia 1st showed this program the chinese embassy in canberra posted this statement on its website heavily criticizing it and calling it biased it made its

own justification for adopting what it called a series of counter-terrorism and de radicalization measures and referred uses to 3 of its own more positive reports about xinjiang. the end game in my opinion is very clearly the long term survival and rule after communist party. this is being achieved by achieving complete ideological control over every part of china. beijing has to clear out the ultimate war on their religion and culture of these turkic minorities. and it's not going to rest until there will be lasting glue change forever. i think that's what they're doing. to systematically assimilate us into chinese society. i think they want us to it like to walk like chinese or live like to.

die like. people look at the legal definition of genocide has to be systematic it has to be intentional. this is an act of cultural genocide i'm one of the worse human rights abuses of our time so i'm asking government to help me to ask the chinese government to release my mom my heart and brain and into me. every day every single of us i can't even fully on the 9th time. that's my life now there's not any happiness. can enjoy from any things. maybe they're going to take her again just because of i'm speaking out of what no

other option left undone everything i speak with the home affairs i speak with a free and minister a speakers are trying to talk with the chinese authorities bribe them but still there is nothing happening in the past 2 years. so now i have to speak out and australians i think all those from the need to know this story.

however we got the usual showers across the sea amazon basin a loss of popcorn clouds showing up a little area cloud head just rolling across central parts of cheney into the river plate level not just where little for the most of it is because through the next day also some wet weather pushing up towards want to sarah's $26.00 on saturday for them all live in the wettest weather for brazil will be around rio and maybe just to the north of over the next couple of days by the time we come to sunday some rather wet weather also just flooded out towards a fosse out the east of the country and that's that when this is pushed across the play through europe why and it will extend a little further north scattering the shallows to the north of that up towards the caribbean and it's the western side of the caribbean central and western parts which will see the heaviest showers over the next say for the lesser antilles it's lucky fine a dry blue skies here lots of glorious sunshine but some lively showers there possibly into jamaica into cuba and that west the weather just froze a little further west which as we go through the next day also brought today then

gains exclusive access to the accusers and questions the accused how long do you think. in the latest chapter in a scandal that shaken the catholic church to its foundation in bad faith on and. this is al-jazeera. and welcome to the al-jazeera news our life or my headquarters and the parana coming up in the next 60 minutes. not backing down anti-government protests continue across iraq despite

a rising death toll. let china and president responds to more than a 1000000 people rallying against the government saying he's heard their message. he rejects a proposal from germany to create an international safe zone in syria as on realistic. thought the day school says england beat new zealand in the rugby world cup semifinals to book a place in next week's final that story and more coming up later in the program. we begin with the latest from iraq where police have fought stun grenades at anti-government protest as they were trying to enter the heavily fortified green zone where the iraqi parliament has. many protesters spent the night in baghdad starting you square funerals are being held now for some of the 42 people who were killed by security forces on friday more than 2000 others were injured hospitals

are struggling to cope protesters had set fire to government buildings and party offices in some areas the anger of a corruption an economic hardship they want the government leaders to resign a curfew has been imposed in 8 mainly shia provinces let's go now to our correspondent natasha good name she is joining live from the capital so what is the situation there today natasha. elizabeth the number of people in tahrir square continues to grow people keep coming you see big trucks and small trucks arriving with water and these are people can raise their eyes out if they're attacked with tear gas this was supposed to be a one day protest on friday as you mentioned people see a sit in here in baghdad and in several cities across iraq and they have continued for a 2nd day of protests they say they will continue to stay until the government of

prime minister either lab steps down these protests were dead again there are a continuation of a 1st wave of protests that began in early october the death toll has now risen to almost 200 people that doesn't excuse the include security forces the ministry of interior says that security forces have been attacked by protesters but we're speaking to a protester after a protester today like the woman you're about to hear from who say that they are being attacked they are peaceful and they're being attacked unprovoked. this is a peaceful demonstration we are peaceful but the government is and we want to make sure that's we. just demonstrate in a safe way as we want that we would that we won't get killed. i don't want to die. today i want to have a good country i don't want anyone to die today. a lot of protesters are asking our members of the media to get the word out to the international community

that they need assistance they say that their government is killing them and they want someone from the international community to intervene to protect them and as one man said to protect their dignity massager there has been international attention and criticism meanwhile inside iraq wants to post to me what happened. quite astounding considering the fact that you might see this country is in a state of emergency certainly a state of crisis the parliament was supposed to meet today it was a regular session and because not enough members of parliament turned up there was no quorum and the session was canceled as you can imagine protesters are quite angry but the bottom line in their minds this is only fuel their demand for the government to resign the interior ministry of interior did release a statement today condemning the people it says attacks security forces and

vandalized government and political party offices they say that these criminals in effect hijacked these peaceful protests a spokesman with the ministry of interior is also saying that they did not use excessive force and that they are committed to protecting the human rights of peaceful protesters natasha thank you for that for now that's not going to aim with the latest live in the iraqi capital well let's stay with the story we're joined now by is a tune alec anality middle east analyst and contributor to open a democracy and he's joining us live from here and doha very good to have you with us on al-jazeera so as we've been hearing from our correspondent and the iraqi government they say that there were no law you know no knives filed was used in these protests and yet 42 people have been killed thousands injured so just how dangerous a situation we end now because again to remind our viewers these are a continuation of the protest that started on the 1st of october and before this friday 149 people have already been combed. well these protests and the violent

crackdown there has been met by these protests though just another evidence why the iraqi people shouldn't believe the economic reforms that the iraqi prime minister is promising them he he broke the promise that he would allow them to have their democratic and their constitutional right for freedom of expression to protest on the streets for better public services better human rights better social services better education better employee ability rates however was met by a violent crackdown on the eye on that point though you know there were reports yesterday that some protesters were breaking into government buildings and setting them on fire so how is the government supposed to respond when protests do take that kind of a violent turn here will the violence issue in the iraqi protests especially this month is a very tricky one we have to question the violence that comes from the governmental side before we question the violence coming from the protesters we have covered

militias attacking and sniping people from across the buildings on top of the rooftops of buildings towards the protesters was the government is not doing anything about it so i think we should question the violence coming from the governmental side before we question the burning of buildings coming from the protesters who are not even using any sort of self-defense and if there is any violence that happened in the government of sun and southern iraq according to many people on the ground there was a direct clash between. which is the on doing of that the southers political movement who is a part of the government against which is another. formerly used to be a part of the mehdi army the former name of doing the sectarian war in 2006 and 8 and your spelling out you know just some of the reasons why the protests as you yourself say end of violence are complicated because there's the protesters there is the violence that we have seen from the government side it's been called just

proportionate by international organizations a number of people killed but then there's also the snipers that are reported to have been put there by the iranian backed popular mobilization also. we have to be careful when we use the term iranian backed popular mobilization forces very popular public opinion use is an umbrella organization that consists of very different armed groups some of them or loyal to the iraqi government some of them are loyal to the iranian government or the reigning supreme leader and some of them are loyal to words the religious establishment in iraq the pm use the armed the iranian militias within the peon use are the ones who are involved in those protests and are the billy arguably the ones who are attacking those protesters in behalf of the other adam and his government again while that is a mixed picture what would you say about the number of evacuees that we've seen out

on the streets especially yesterday calling for the end of iranian calling for the end of whether it's iranian all us external influence and iraqi politics of course the main factor that motivates us to believe that this is the most effective anti iran sentiment that has ever happened since opposed post 2003 iraq is that most of these uprisings or most of these protests are happening in the southern of iraq which is a shia majority. region of iraq and it was always that i was always the argument of the iranian influence in iraq that they are in the iraqi arena to protect their partner is. similarly to regional power players across the other across the other parts of borders of iraq who are claiming to be defending the kurds or the sunnis but the anti around sentiment here is proving to be more more significant than any other time in post a 1003 iraq because it's coming from the show iraqis themselves against the iranian

influence in iraq however it is she iraqis today are not protesting a shia rocky's they are protesting as iraqis before they are protesting as she has just as the sinews hopefully would join them and the upcoming weeks as iraqis before they are sunni's there is so much to talk about on the subject but unfortunately that is all the time we have for now that is they doing as can any joining us live in doha thank you for your time thank you for having. we're going to move on to other news not a chin a riot police have fired at some of the 1000000 marches and the largest anti-government demonstration for decades tear gas and lead pellets targeted protest as he said barricades on find the capital santiago president sebastian pinera says he's heard the message of protest is complaining about inequality and the rising cost of living at least 19 people have been killed in 2 weeks of unrest . has moved from santiago. more than 1000000 people have taken to the
