and says that men strangers and never see waiting for the police response didn't send generations very amazing even though we. tell what they are and what i've seen a lot of people told us it is very surprising and i'm awful i don't watch all these people organized but they are they are always full of the. generation and the country that's why everyone on the street so they are they are demanding. more than the bad the restoration of the government let the government and also the new democratic several caucasians and all these people asking for all be out soon. we are seeing a military credit galv brutal credit carol mangling if you don't need to know some of the major city and also order to deal 1 before the protests to the . military you will definitely put down the protests had run for now i don't know

me no more death all the protests of one thing in the happening in the you know. i don't know no i mean the one protest location i don't see any violence or any our problem in iraq now but we don't know one minute he won't show up and. who knows most or all of and you know. again to be peaceful protesters so we all know like a military house a lot of history all brutal crackdown against the. more parents carrying you know more. let's get the latest now from tony chain who is monitoring the situation in myanmar for us from neighboring thailand tony is in bangkok so people are protesting today across myanmar despite the military threat of violence tell us 1st about what you've been hearing about these nationwide protests and this nationwide strike and the impact it's having or that we always

expected that it was going to be large but we're seeing huge numbers of people coming in all across the country in the north it not only in the bigger been centers but also in the small townships in the ethnic regions that often have their differences with central burma and there does seem to be a very unified message coming out from the protesters say that the military must reverse the coup and b. that the leaders particularly young son suchi must be released coupled with the protests we've also seen a general strike that has been almost universally followed bringing to a whole all sorts of businesses banks public transport civil servants even in the capital now people seem to be enjoying the strikes too and i think that the message is very clearly going to the military that if they are going to persist with this they are going to be facing a very solid block of opposition we've seen on the streets trucks of police and soldiers who for the most part seem to be standing back at the moment but. as your

guest just pointed the the the burmese military do have a strong history of brutality and i think the concern is for many people that at some stage the patience is going to snap and start pushing back tony the pressure is building both internally and also externally how will the military be viewing these looming sanctions from the u.s. and either these threats of sanctions. well there already are dealing with them to a certain extent some targeted sanctions are already in place with the burmese military who've been dealing with sanctions like this for decades through the eighty's the ninety's the early 2000 there are all sorts of sanctions in place and they didn't really have very much impact the government who are the found ways around it all or just ignored them. the difference this time is that me and my has

opened up considerably in the last 5 years there are economic links that i think the burmese military will be reluctant to lose there's also going to be internal pressure particularly with the general strike. that the economic slowdown will have a huge impact on the country i think the military had tried to sell this in the statements we've seen since the coup as something of a temporary measure reset they said there would be new elections within 12 months and that everything would get back to normal quickly but it's clearly not going to happen this strike is going to put enormous economic pressure on the country and that sanctions from outside will add to that in addition to which i think even the few supporters of the burmese military countries like china would be very reluctant to see a bloody military crackdown in a return to the dark days of the ninety's and eighty's. was very much a pariah state thank you very much for that tony chain life for us there in.

now the united nations has called for the immediate rescue of dozens of rohingya refugees stranded at sea they reportedly set sail from cox's bizarre refugee camp in bangladesh around 11 days ago they were being a human rights initiative says at least 90 people on board the boat and have run out of supplies several have died their last known location was just northeast of the andaman islands a few 100 kilometers off the coast of myanmar as bringing our correspondent in bangladesh tanveer choudhry who's live in dhaka town verso what more do we know about this boat and its whereabouts. well let's bring you some update this is been verified by our al-jazeera bureau in delhi also running a human rights group in delhi were able to communicate with some of the survivor in the boat they said the indian navy is now providing relief materials provision and

medical help to those boat people stranded in on them and i and now i was able to contact one of the brother of one of the men sholom 4 was one of the person in the boat he was able to talk to his brother who called him by a satellite phone saying that they're getting help from indian navy that was about 930 g.m.t. i'm a little early about an hour ago and they said that they're getting all kind of provisional help now his brother also confirmed there are about 65 woman there about 20 men and 5 children abroad he apparently told him there's 8 people died this was also confirmed by the rights group in delhi we cannot independently verify that also i spoke to the bangladesh coast guard they said that not aware off it they didn't get any kind of appeal for help from the u.n. the bangladesh home minister in a press briefing on another matter the question came up he said that they did not

get any u.n. pale or any other people to help any of their own ng as and they said either way we will not take back any rowing as with the left cox's but are coming from myanmar which could this refugees in the boat in a very precarious situation who will actually rescue them and bring him back to corpses but are already me on my own because they are innocent great and where they indian navy has not actually rescued them they are actually helping them now we know this is not the 1st time over the years hundreds of refugees try to go to malaysia and indonesia for a better life majority of them are women and children many cases this woman getting gauged to run araf would use in malaysia over the phone so that they can get married while in malaysia and start having a better life but this. haven't been able to successfully cave most of the time the malaysian authorities have turned down this bangladesh maybe our coast guard who has rescued hundreds of rowing or refugees or with the years many of them now are sheltered in remote island and passion jar where many of the growing up from

caucuses but are also sheltered within the last few months so we'll have to see if bangladesh and eventually will take this to give back if they are rescued or what the indian government will take them thank you for that tanveer chadri with that update there from dhaka in bangladesh germany's foreign minister says is seen iran's best interest to change course before the 2015 nuclear agreement is damaged beyond repair this is after tehran suspended inspections of nuclear sites to put pressure on the u.s. to remove sanctions but the iranian government has now agreed to give the un's nuclear watchdog postural access for the next 3 months. or some tehran. an important visit at a critical time rafael grossi the director general of the international atomic energy agency arrived in town on saturday ahead over iran's plan to partly suspend his agency's inspections of its nuclear facilities early on sunday grossi sat down

with the head of iran's atomic energy organization to discuss what happens next to his inspectors the director general also met foreign ministers of odd serif before heading back to vienna. and the outcome of those meetings is that the i.a.e.a. reached a temporary bilateral technical understanding with iranian officials which will allow the agency to continue its monitoring of to iran's nuclear program the hope of the i.e.e.e. has been to be able to take the light easy to ration which was very unstable. and i think the. understanding does it. so that other political considerations are other levels can take place and. we can avoid ration in which we would have been in practical terms like officials

have said as a february 23rd iran will no longer abide by the additional protocols of the nonproliferation treaty because the united states left a 2015 nuclear deal and imposed tough new economic sanctions on iran's oil and banking sector this decision is part of a bill which parliament passed in the summer in an attempt to force the united states to lift some of those sanctions and return to the nuclear deal. for ministers of god serif is not optimistic anything will happen before that that mine nothing has changed by going claims that trump policy of maximum pressure was maximum pavia rincon also just recently said that that policy fade but for all practical purposes there for the pursuing the same policy they haven't changed that policy. the new restrictions mean i will no longer be allowed to make surprise visits to any of iran's 6 declared nuclear facilities and they won't have

access to any other sensitive or military sites either they will also be denied access to the 24 hour surveillance cameras at those sites with less than 4 months left in office the rowhani administration was hesitant at 1st to implement the bill which had passed the parliament but after the endorsement of the supreme leader the president had no choice now the government is hoping that the new administration in washington will lift some of the sanctions which have cost the iran estimated $1.00 trillion dollars or president rouhani as 8 year term will end with a failed nuclear deal and a crumbling economy. dorsetshire party al jazeera. are some breaking news to tell you about now this hour and we're getting reports that italy's ambassador to the democratic republic of congo has been killed in an attack on a u.n. convoy a spokesman for the national park in the east of the d.r. c says this happened during an attempt to kidnap u.n.

up north while kidnapping is becoming more like big business is the process of securing the release of victims it's either the government is paying ransom or has negotiated safe passage for the perpetrators of the crime whichever way nigerians are concerned that granting access or freedom of posse to criminals who kidnapped you know some nigerians or you know some people will encourage others to come into the trade again probably thinking that they could be good they could they could be like the us at least once secondly bring runs them could also encourage more people into the crime and embolden them to attack or even rearm to carry out more dangerous missions in the future to lose these are some of the concerns nigerians are having with the current situation in the country where the kidnapping is on the right. boeing says it's grounded all triple 7 planes fitted with the type of engine that exploded during a flight in the u.s.
