3:05 am
intercepted by the iron dome around nightfall the 2nd one around 8 pm local time which fell inside gaza and territory it was after that in the early hours of this morning that israel began to respond its military tweeting that it was doing so because of the breaches of the cease fire that had taken place during the course of the day there were also protests in the streets in some locations in gaza with people unhappy with the cease fire especially given the loss of life that we saw during the course of the previous night children also killed saying that more rocket fire should be carried out islamic jihad said sending out a statement saying that it was ready on standby with its finger on the trigger to respond should there be further attacks by israel so saying it had a new misao available to. it domestically produced one it said which had a range of some 120 kilometers on the other side of the gaza border fence we
3:06 am
heard late last night that the communities the israeli communities around the fringes of gaza had decided to close schools again for another day because they were obviously concerned that this cease fire may not hold so far we are seeing breaches now from both sides of the cease fire and it's looking more fragile than it was earlier in the day air force that with the latest from gaza thank you harry. to other news and thousands of antigovernment protesters in chile a marking a year since an indigenous man was shot dead by police the case was marred by accusations of a cover up security forces have tried to disperse crowds using water cannon this latest protest comes against the backdrop of 4 weeks of demonstrations over inequality the finance minister is warning of huge job losses the peso touched a new low on thursday raising fears of a fuel price rise and well more from

3:08 am
a short while ago but then one of the sectors went back into the meeting room and they still haven't come out with that while the people out on the street wait and see what they're going to propose because they say that unless there is a good agreement and the people are allowed to choose the constitution that they want they will remain out on the streets. the husband of the jailed peruvian opposition leader. has begun a hunger strike demanding her release margarito is camping outside the prison where she's been held he says his wife is a political prisoner who more years behind bars while she's investigated over alleged money laundering during her presidential campaign in 2011 peru's supreme court has indefinitely delayed a decision on whether to free her at least 4 people have been killed in iraq's capital baghdad during anti-government protests 35 others were injured many of those either choked on tear gas or were hit by rubber bullets more
3:09 am
than 300 people have been killed since the beginning of october as anger over corruption and a lack of basic services the government has taken some measures to address their grievances but many protesters want a complete overhaul of the political system. june has more from baghdad. we've been told daily that there are going to be substantive measures discussed and taken in parliamentary sessions and really they have yet to really transpire the parliament continues to meet there are expectations by a multitude of protesters on the streets that they will hear perhaps some news that would indicate to them that the government is actually taking their concerns and their demands under consideration discussing them in parliament and yet that doesn't seem to be the case yesterday as well as today it had been expected that
3:10 am
perhaps part of electoral reform would be taken up in the parliament that perhaps ways of combating corruption would be taken up in the parliament that doesn't seem to have happened it didn't happen yesterday despite the presence of the head of the united nations assistance mission here in iraq today we're told it has not happened as far as we can tell what we've been told by some officials is that there was a draft law that was completed by the president's office with regard to electoral reform that was then given to the head of parliament rather the cabinet and then it has gone to the president of parliament and that it will be discussed at some point we just don't know when and that's one of the reasons the people that day after day continue to protest despite the threat of violence and that's one of the reasons they keep coming out. now think tanks trying to work out how to handle water is left of i so at its height the armed group had a force of about 30000 fighters carrying out attacks all over the world most have

since either been killed or captured but it's what to do with those prisoners and their families those behind this meeting foreign ministers from 30 countries in washington d.c. but it is just weeks after u.s. president donald trump with her troops from syria which raised a few concerns about his commitment to the fight against awesome u.s. sectors that might pump aoe urged coalition members to carry out justice against suspected members of the armed group from their own countries coalition members must take back the thousands of foreign terrorist fighters in custody and oppose accountability for the atrocities that they have perpetrated now turkey is sending more suspected arsenal fighters and their families back to their home countries 7 german citizens for example landed in berlin earlier on thursday and another 23 european nationals are expected to be deported in the coming days more than 1200 fighters are in turkish prisons shortly we'll hear from john mccain in berlin on
3:12 am
that german repatriation 1st this from roslyn jordan at the meeting in washington. one of the main issues about dealing with isis is what do you do with the people who came from other countries to fight for the caliphate there is a general agreement that these people if possible should be returned to their home countries but there are a few countries particularly in europe that don't want foreign fighters coming back to their territory they would rather that the countries where they have been living and fighting actually arrest them prosecute them and imprison them however u.s. officials say that's simply not a realistic ask the united states and a number of countries have taken the position that as a matter of coalition burden sharing each country has a responsibility to handle this situation on their own. our view is that it is not a fusible option it is not
3:13 am
a viable option to ask other countries in the region to import another country's foreign fighters and pursue prosecution and incarceration there the ministers also recognize that part of the reason why iceland was able to establish a caliphate so easily and so thoroughly was because of the ongoing civil war inside syria the ministers are agreeing that much more needs to be done to promote diplomatic efforts in keeping with the u.n. security council resolution 2254 and say that as long as they can keep focused on trying to end the civil war it will make it harder for eisel and for other such groups to try to reestablish themselves inside that war torn country. this is the 1st wave of returns by the turkish authorities of german citizens or german residents who have been in turkish custody people who have been decided upon by the
3:14 am
turkish authorities as being so dangerous that they can no longer stay on turkish soil and yet for the germinal forat least the difficulty that they face is that on the face of it these specific 7 individuals have no charges against them they cannot be charged for any activities or their participation in any activities in the middle east under german law and as i say these people are then perceived to be innocent they can go about their their own lives back in germany for the government there is the serious issue that many people in this country are opposed to the return of people who the turkish government have referred to in such disparaging terms but they must also a bay the law the government just as much as these individuals it is polarizing opinion in this country and of course there are more people the turkish government says it wants to return to germany. still ahead for you on al-jazeera hope for justice the international criminal court agrees to investigate crimes against the
