some changes to fight the spread of vaccine misinformation online. and kidnapping and murder charges against a former crew leader in mali a dropped. syria sparking 10 years since the start of the uprising that spiraled into a civil war more than half a 1000000 people have been killed in the fighting millions more have been forced to flee their homes now with the forces of president bashar al assad firmly in control of most of the country many are asking if it was all worth it so hot on the other decades of conflict. this is the birthplace of syria's uprising in 2011 but opposition members call this moment the end of the dream of a democratic country it's 2018 and the government has just recaptured the southern province after 7 years of resistance. i almost had

a breakdown after all the sacrifices when they raised the flag we felt stabbed the town had a lot of symbolism for the revolution. it was here where the wall of fear was broken we watched syrians turn against the police state we watched them bury their dead demonstrators who were killed by security forces are. going. protests spread to other areas in homs tanks were sent to suppress the uprising. the city which became known as the capital of the revolution became a battleground and. the regime forced us to take up arms and turned the uprising into a war it was no longer possible to face guns without screens. there was a siege on the rebel stronghold after months of heavy fighting months later the

opposition agreed to leave the area. was among them he says they had little choice they were trapped without basic supplies running low on ammunition and abandoned by the world. 2 years later and after a 4 year stalemate the opposition was forced to abandon aleppo which weakened them politically. and i felt broken when i got on the bus i still think about it but the siege was unbearable people were dying in the by bombs or hunger. is among the millions of internally displaced syrians who live in the opposition controlled north unable and unwilling to live under syrian president bashar assad's rule but he says he fears a ceasefire agreed last year will not hold. already hundreds of thousands have been killed millions have been displaced inside and outside the country and there has been no accountability serious conflict is entering its 2nd decade with the

majority of its citizens poor and with little hope. we have been forced to give up on our dreams the international community has failed the syrian people there is no reconciliation there is no peace 10 years of war has divided a country and its people. santa joy just on my from the back of value in lebanon say to you in a camp where many people spent years hoping for an end to the war in syria is that any optimism that one day they'll be able to go home. very little optimism as you can see behind me one of many formal read. people here have been they've been here for years look at this child he was born in lebanon 1000000 children are believed to have been born in exile at least they don't know their homeland they don't know syria you ask anybody here and they say

of course we want to go back home we want to go back to our towns we want to go back to our villages but were afraid even though the battlefield has been largely quiet relatively quiet for a year now these people say we're waiting for a permanent ceasefire we're waiting for a political settlement there's also another reason people are afraid because there are no security guarantees the united nations the european union they too don't believe that it is safe for returns to happen because there have been cases where by refugees who have returned have been arrested by security forces they don't necessarily have to belong to the opposition or sympathize with the opposition the fact that they left the country at the height of the war they are considered they're traitors and of course there's the question of the economy the syrian economy has all but collapsed the currency has crashed that means people salaries are worthless and then you have unemployment a lot of people here will tell you our homes were destroyed our villages have been

flattened by 10 years of conflict no services no infrastructure so how do you expect us to go back home with no political solution in sight and the government of bashar assad this cash strapped the international community clearly is not going to bail him out and for. they're withholding reconstruction funds and imposing sanctions on anyone who does business with his government in order to try to push bashar assad to make political concessions because so far he has not really engaged meaningfully in the un led peace process what the international community wants him to do write a new constitution hold a un supervised elections in fact elections are being planned for the weeks for the weeks ahead but with no u.n. supervision so yes he may have won the war at least this is the way he believes this is how he has clawed back territory from the opposition but the bottom line is

it's a failed state with no international recognition of 0 say no to reporting live from the bekaa valley in lebanon zinah many thanks deed. is the head of public relations at the syrian association for citizens dignity she says that syrians have been forgotten the reasons for the uprising but the anniversary is a grim reminder of the many challenges still ahead. we want to turn back to over a country the struggle is not over even though the country is the story even though our economy is the story even though that are attempts by the regime and russia to add to dismiss even a syrian regime whether by connections with or invite conference on the return of refugees we insist that there is no safe vitamin in syria that allows that interest of the syrians and he insists that the issue of this experience is not on a humanitarian issue but it's at the heart of any political solution in syria and any political transition the syrian people sacrificed

a lot i cannot think of any syrian family who did not secor fights and this in itself is their reason for us to continue the struggle so i have the word working it is at the difficult for me to say yes but i can see that this is an extra reason for me not to surrender not to stop the struggle or not to look fucked until a syria which is ruled by the by the assad regime and its cronies and an unsafe as you know we started this for 10 years ago we've paid a lot we have a huge loss a very large lost generation we have generations been born outside syria you don't even know what their country is we have generations who are born in towns they don't know what it means to live in a house under under under i rule we still have a lot of work to do and we still have a lot of struggle and this is why we are trying to mobilize the syrians that displaced syrians to make our voice heard and to to make sure that our rights are incorporated in any political solution on syria what is

a monetary and dignified transfer all syrians. a hearing from am was ousted civilian leader aung san suu kyi has been pushed back more than a week as a country reels from further bloodshed she's been detained since the jump to took power on february 1st. at least 39 people were killed on sunday that's the highest number of deaths in a single day in the crackdown on antique who protesters the military has imposed martial law in several regions of young go on and mandalay let's go live now to al-jazeera scott hardly following events in me on law from bangkok scott the situation appears to be deteriorating a staggering rise in fatalities and the martial law being imposed meanwhile china has expressed concern for its citizens of the chinese factories were torched by protesters why is that significant. agent well it's significant for

a couple of reasons the the protesters have viewed china as sympathetic as as supportive of the coup in myanmar the took place on november 1st so they have always kind of targeted. china in their protests making sure that china realizes that they are not happy with the stance that the nation has taken and they're protesting outside the embassy for multiple days in yangon on the early days of this protest movement and then this move we're seeing now now let's go to break it down yes bloodiest day yet on sunday partially partly i should say because the reason where these factories are in these suburbs these industrial zone suburbs on the outskirts of yangon that's where these these factories are but that's also where a lot of the factory workers live and they were out protesting and that's when things really kind of escalated they decided they some of them i should say decided that they wanted to vandalize these chinese financed factories out in this area of town

of yangon so that's when we saw the real kind of crackdown come and what's interesting beyond that adrian is because of that we have 6 neighborhoods within yang gone the greater yangon area that now have martial law that means essentially all the civilian administration court systems have been disbanded now it's under complete military control in those 6 areas because of the violence we saw yesterday was interesting with china's reaction it prompted the strongest reaction from china after this happened on sunday night saying calling on the generals in myanmar to protect their citizens protect protect their property and to stop all violence so it's interesting to see this kind of this kind of shift in tone from china underlying why it's so important the relationship with china to myanmar they are the top arms supplier and military equipment supplier for myanmar as military they're also the top trading partner and remember the military has a lot of commercial into. it's. throughout the country so that is obviously very

important that the relationship with china maintains the good good status if you will so this is kind of a big escalation if you will not just on the front lines of the bloody state but also politically too when it comes to how china has reacted thanks scott i was here is called reporting live from bangkok. indonesia has become the latest country to delay using the astra zeneca coronavirus vaccine of a blood clot concerns the drug firm says that its review data of more than 17000000 people given its vaccine and that there's no increased risk thailand says it will resume its astra zeneca rollout after a brief break over safety is facebook has begun labeling posts about covert 19 in an effort to combat misinformation content about vaccines will have labels with facts from the world health organization the tech giant says it will expand its

coronavirus awareness efforts to its other platforms instagram and whatsapp facebook has faced heavy criticism for allowing false claims to spread during the pandemic. simon clark is an associate professor of cellular microbiology he says that misinformation around the astra zeneca jab could be mitigated if regulators were clear about their concerns across social media and in particular facebook is where a lot of people get their news from these days so i think while we have the possibility . of fake news with regards to the vaccine appearing on platforms like facebook it's incumbent upon the the owners of that platform to take steps to to warn people that what they might be reading isn't necessarily correct we hear. they think that the chance of increased blood clotting after vaccination. blood clots happen in people normally and really the numbers that we have at the moment as far as we know

suggest they're no more common in the vaccinated population and they are in the un vaccinated population if if the regulators have seen something unusual or or of concern they really do need to be a bit more forward a bit more honest about what it is that the problem that they've they've come up with is they feel bad about asking questions it's ok to ask questions and it's for people like me and and medics and nurses to take splaying why nothing is safe millions of people of had this this vaccine and there is no evidence yet at all for any side effects that are that severe that there is a problem sure some people give us a sore arm after infection that's fairly normal with vaccines but more serious complications there's no evidence they occur any more frequently than they do in

a serious nicholas hawk who's in dhaka with more on what's this all about why was the why was he acquitted in this trial. well it was quite a scene there at the core group. i mean the captain captain son of god who organized this coup who was then promoted to 4 star general and this year we've seen him walking around the capitol in his uniform while he was in court today not in his uniform but in a gray suit and he walked in walked out a smiling man into his car a free man according to the current accord that then just drop charges but just drop the trial all together for the sake of national reconciliation remember there was a lot put in place in 2883 and a lot of the amnesty that that essentially allowed the crimes that were committed in 2012 to be to be ignored in many ways in order for the sake of national

identity 2012 what captain sent to go organize this coup and the brief moment where he was in power from late march to to early april well on the night of the 30th he rounded up 30 or $21.00 red berets which is another force that he thought were meant to keep the cuckoo against him now they were all detained tortured and throwed alive in a mass grave where they were then shot and then buried alive now this for human rights organization constitute a crime against humanity not for the instate now says that this crime needs to be ignored in many ways and that we need to that mali needs to move forward now there was an agreement made between the lawyers of the perpetrators of this crime so i do son ago as well as his as his close allies and the victims and as part of that agreement the victims wanted to see a state funeral for all those soldiers that it took during that period also

financial compensation from $25000.00 from the foot soldier to a 50. $1000.00 for a major or general as well as housing for all of those that died or the families of the victims that died during bad but of course and the issue here for human rights organizations especially amnesty international has been really calling out the lack of just the lack of presence of a justice system in mali they see that key to moving forward for the state is to recognize these crimes and to justice being made so we've seen outside the courtroom some of the victims. leaving to some other victims stating that they will go to court to appeal. that decision made by the court today
