there is no channel that covers world views like we do. the scale of this camp is like nothing you've ever seen access to healthcare or something. well, we want to know, how does these things affect people? we revisit places day, even when they're no international headlines. also they're really invest in that, and that's a privilege. as a journalist. ah, this is al jazeera ah, hello there, i'm to start the attain. this is a news our live from our headquarters here and are coming up in the next 60 minutes for you and says violence and eastern me on margaret cause a massive loss of life beyond anything seen since the military seas power away out for protesters we look at how the escaping the violence and killings and me and mom for the military in general like we are, we will be a criminal even if we have

a picture of the office phone. their job was making us kind of a safe place where his carrying land mines are killed and a gun attack. on the french say it's a triumph, one of the well, the top destinations is welcoming back taurus who's now been vaccinated against curve at 900. and i'm trying to how much not have all the support brazil flash gets a vital when and woke up qualifying and confirmed. they'll participate in the upcoming copa america by fear of a boycott. ah, a massive loss of life. that's the blunt warning from the united nations on the sheer scale of devastation that people are facing miasma. and the military rule as envoy has urgent action is needed. now in the eastern states of kaya,

where more than 100000 people have fled the conflict. and it's not just the threat of artillery foreign air strikes. now we're getting a porch vetch. there have little to no water food. there are people getting sick and they have no access to medical supplies. and what we've also learned is that the hunter is blocking roads that could provide to aid organizations and those who are trying to get to them access to these people. and i've also heard a report, a credible report to just to day the landmines are being laid on the road leading to the forest, where these desperate people are. so we could be looking not only at the impact of the bombing itself, but we could be looking at a significant loss of life. ok, i just want to several regions and me on my way groups of fighting back against the military. following that crew and february, the deposed elected the, the on santucci rights group say at least $849.00 people. mostly civilians have

died in the unrest churchy herself is due to go on trial on monday on a raft of charges that has supported a politically most faces. well, so robertson is the deputy asia director of human rights watch. he says it's standard procedures and me on laws, military to block aid into conflict areas. what we have seen since that i see on meeting was the military has gotten down to business. and in these areas, in eastern chaos state around demo. so township, what we're seeing a standard operating procedure by the me and mar military to treat anybody in conflict areas as enemies of the states who can be attacked with impunity. and this is why we're seeing the indiscriminate text by air and by artillery, sending in ground troops who, you know, if they see civilians on the ground or shoot them. and that's why people are fleeing into the jungles to escape these waves of myanmar military coming to try to

find the insurgents who previously attacked them. we believe that there blockading this area. this is again something they do on a regular basis. they will deny humanitarian assistance to any area where they believe there is resistance to their rule. so you know, food is dark, getting through the potable water medicine. other things that people needa, people are hiding in the jungles in the middle of the monsoon season. you know, we're dealing with issues there of water born disease is certainly diseases or mosquitoes and other things. people who have been wounded in attacks. we're not getting a treatment. it is a humanitarian disaster. and for the military to block humanitarian aid, getting into that area compounds, the atrocities that they're already committing thailand should open its border and allow for free flow of humanitarian assistance to go across their argue mandatory in groups. in thailand who are prepared to help. there are many who are prepared to

take that assistance across. but what we have seen is a real lockdown on the time me and mar border by the time military and border patrol. police trying to control and make sure that no one can go back and forth. and, you know, that's just odd re reality and then border, which is very poor. so there will be people coming across please from the fighting in, in, in chaos state. well, we're now getting more of a sense of just how difficult life is become to protest as indiana and how they are trying to escape the violence. scott high, the reports on the town of may thoughts on the border with thailand where there's a growing underground network that's helping people get away. hugging the boy river border, the city of may soft in thailand has for generations acted as a gateway with neighboring me and mar. it's community spans the border. a shared culture with families living on both sides and in economy routed in cross border trade. but since the coo and me and me are 4 months ago throwing the country in the

crisis, the priorities for some have shifted. business owners are now helping exiles and dissonance escaping the genta. find safe havens sealed yellow. we are helping all the people get what they need for some high rank. politicians need to be in a safe situation where they can communicate with their organizations inside and outside of me and mar. he's also assisting the growing number of protestors finding their way to korean ethnic army camps in the jungle along the border. there undergoing self defense and combat training part of an expanding alliance between those who have been on the streets calling for the military leaders to step down and the arm groups that have been in a decades long fight for more. autonomy su su was active during the anti genta protest. he was living with her aunt, a member of the deposed civilian leader on songs to cheese political party. the n l d. sue sue was detained by security forces last month. as soon as she was released, she fled because she said police had surrounded her aunt's home. she used google

maps to find her way to the border. we have to stop every entrance of each tunnel that we pass through the immigrants, the immigration officer, the soldier like different uniform, different people. they will check you, show me your id. where are you going? can, can i check your phone to solve for the military and you don't like we are, we will be a criminal even if we save a picture of the phone with the situation. me and me are showing no signs of changing more protests is like sue sue, will continue to be forced to escape any way they can. either fleeing to safety or training to take on the job. got hiler al jazeera, now meeting on at least 10 work is clearing. land mines in northern afghanistan has been killed. the government has naming the taliban, but it denies responsibility. please say. gunman entered the canton baghlan

province and opened fire violence is increased in that area and recent month. well, we can now speak to james cohen, he's the chief executive of the halo trust and he joins us now from chevron in southwest england. james, let me start by offering my condolences. your colleagues were so sorry to hear the news. i know you've been working enough kind of stone for nearly 33 years now. this is your largest operation in the world, and i understand most of your employees there are actually local stuff for carrying out this very critical humanitarian work. what do you think could possibly motivate an attack like this? yeah, thanks so much. feel condolences. yes, you actually right we, we do work across the world. in fact, we work in 26 countries. we have the 10000 stuff. me and mo, she just featured is one of our countries biggest program. we have nearly 3000 and stuff that they were very part of the fact that the afghans through employ locally that come from all the different communities within us. and they do amazing

work to save lives and we're still livelihoods within that, very more affected country. you ask what we think the causes? well we, you know, have volunteer kind of stuff is at the moment for us to go across country we can operate safely. what seems to happened is that this group entered, they wanted to find specific people of particular ethnic group and murdered 10 of them and wounded further 16 and the local taliban actually came to our assistance and the taliban himself has denied responsibility. so my suspicion is it's a different organization. sure, i just wanted to ask james, because the government still is blaming the taliban despite the fact that they are denying responsibility. so do you then have a sense of who could be responsible? how's the security situation there? deteriorated to such an extent that it's now just a bit of a free for all. so i think there to fax,

no local canada and came to help. and secondly, the title is denied responsibility. i'm not going to speculate who it was. however, we have lots of people who welcome our work support our working, recognize the need to remove landlines and other explosive hazards in afghanistan. so i don't think it would be profitable at this moment to speculate. sure, exactly. it was right now. i'm curious about the timing because we're also watching us troops withdrawal. they're about halfway through that process. i believe. how is that changed dynamics on the ground? but we were enough guys done long before 911. we've been going in san since 900 c h . we worked 3 different regimes, different phases of african history, and we are determined to carry on our work. we will carry on, we are humanitarian organization duties to save life, restore livelihoods, and low off to the nato mission ends. we can still be there because the vast

majority of people are not going to welcome our work. and we have scale. you know, when something like this happens, we can simply move to a different district where we are better received some very confident of the need. and i'm very confident that we have the skills to continue given the deterioration and the security situation that we've been seeing. i mean, there's such a plethora of groups operation there at the moment. is it useful to think about a coordinated piece process moving forward or, or do you feel like now everyone including n g or is just becoming a target? well i think that is the next emission ends actually over more need, therefore for a coordinated humanitarian response. you see what we did? we didn't just clear landmines. we give jobs to young men, mostly young men who might otherwise be in conflict. you might be competent, you know, the exchange k 47 for the mind detector. we can be part of that process. there

must be an alternative to a purely military mission. so i see we're more need for a coordinated integrated development. and she mat, terry and diplomatic response even if the military adamant of it is now, think of the past. james cohen's the ceo of the halo trust speaking to us from shelburn in the south west of england. thank you so much for joining us, james. and we do really wish you all the best with your work very much. and i still plenty more and few this names are including albania is parliamentary, burgeoning on impeaching the president for allegedly violating the constitution. we'll have the nation from the capital toronto. and to top us diplomatic uses the nicaraguan president of being a dictator as to more potential challenges are arrested. the company, the 1st time is heading to the semi finals of the french open. all the details coming up enforce ah,

now a russian court is currently hearing a petition to outdoor political organizations that are linked to jails, opposition to the election of valley. if approved, it will ban of only allies from running in parliamentary elections later this year . that case has been brought by moscow's top prosecutor, who's accused of me on the supporters of trying to launch a revolution. the criminal critic of serving a 2 and a half year prison sentence parole violations related to an embezzlement. conviction about smith is following this for us. he joins us now from moscow vantage just, how is this hearing going today? stager herring's taking place behind closed doors. no media and no members of the public allowed inside the information we're getting is from the defense team inside the court in the fence team says the prosecution is arguing that the nevada, these anti corruption organization, the f b k, should be outlawed,

should be considered an extremist organization, because it wants to change the constitutional regime and power in the country through so called color revolutions, protest started in december 2011 in russia after parliamentary elections, widely viewed as rigged. and the prosecution also says that to achieve these what it calls destructive goals, the f b k is forming public opinion that is necessary to change power in the country across the defense as well. yes, this is how democracy supposed to work constitutionally in russia. if you want to change the regime, change the person in charge, you have to persuade people to vote those people out of power. so that is where the court case is at the moment. i should also say that already anyway, at b k, volunteers, organization has stopped operating. the prosecution were granted an inter in order a couple of months ago, before this case came to court today, allowing the telling the organization that it had to stop operating. so it hasn't

been operating for a long time. the court is expected later this afternoon to deliver its final ruling which the defense believe will go. busy in favor of the prosecution because all that petitions have the case dismissed have been rejected by the court. now, if it does go that way, but what are the practical implications and for lexi and about the end, how supportive while x in the valley, we saw him only just a couple of days ago. he in court, he's now gone back to prison from the prison hospital where he's been for nearly 2 months recovering from the effects of the hunger strike. he went on in mid march for him and his support as it means. but if you are found guilty of being a member of an extremist organization than you face or lee in the leadership role of an extremist organization, that is up to 8 to 10 years in jail. if you found

a fund, an extremist organization, which is what the f b k risks becoming, then you also face about 8 years in jail. what the government has managed to do is using parliament and the court is effectively shutting down. any avenues that have been for anybody to stand in opposition to the government because a couple of weeks ago, parliament also passed a law say it in the last 3 years. you've been a member of an extremist organization, then you cannot stand for election. all this is happening. i had all elections planned for september plus, may. putin, himself remains popular, enjoys a reasonably high approval rating, but his party, united russia is not so popular. this will stop people standing in opposition to united russia. very interesting indeed, bernard smith with all the nations force from moscow. thanks so much. bennett i'll bane is. parliament is holding an extraordinary session that could potentially end

with the impeachment of president l. meta now follows an investigation that concluded he should be voted without for violating the constitution. the president's role is considered a political, but nesa has regularly clashed with prime minister eddy rama jones ratliff has worn out from toronto, the albanian capital, the ruling socialist party, accused as president master of abandoning his obligation to political neutrality. and in the party system, he apparently came out in favor of democrats when he told el damien to protect the vote and told them that it's a single vote has touched on election to shop in your pitchforks. these were bob's aims in the room and socialists who were running the election, who were the incumbents in this election. and it is no secret here that president met the prime minister rama. and now they've had political enemies. this is an enmity that goes back at least to the local elections of 2019. when 2 men disagreed

on the timing. that's because the elections had been, had been abandoned, had been boycotted by the opposition democrats and protest against the government. they then regretted that decision, when they decided to come back into the election field and can bring candidates forward. there wasn't enough time. president master said, let's postpone them until september. the prime minister roman system on the holding them in june with only socialist party candidates. and of course he took the country's municipalities. but ever since then, press private us to run his accused president matter of having formed and alliance with the opposition democrats. in to the pandemic now, and the e u has endorsed the vaccine certificates a travel within the european blog and comes as france opens its borders to foreign

tourists. as long as they've had a current of iris vaccine. the government has removed the need for carbon 1900 tests for vaccinated europeans, as well as green list countries. other visitors will still need to provide a negative test. its hope that these new rules will help to boost tourism. so let me know when it sounds we see this as a renee suddenly after a year and a half when we've practically been in a coma, this announced reopening is an extraordinary ray of sunshine. what's his extraordinary is that we've moved from an excessive pessimism to an optimism that could also be a bit successive on before this, pandemic france was a while favorite tourist destination and 2019 the country had 19000000 visitors, but then arrivals plans by 66 percent in the 1st half of 2020 tourism accounted for nearly one in 10 french jobs in 2019 and more than 8 percent of g. d. p not shrunk by almost half last year. the industry is gradually recovering. that is still

limited by restrictions. travelers from several red list countries where contagious variance are prevalent off the bod. well, let's now speak to simon, cool, that he's the travel editor of the independence and joins us now from london. simon, within a number of european countries opened up to the world under from the big tourist countries, spain, greece too, for instance of, and very keen to get on with it. do you think it's to say, i think that various countries believe that it is exactly the moment as the vaccines are being rolled out across europe, yet most of the people would like they are desperate and you have a competition right now. absolutely. you say this does, yes. france with me. thank you. sure. the nation in the world serving competition, we go through you carry, which nobody in the house of love and just outside the fridge. and they would be where we are in the middle east, asia for america. and there are exactly there, i think the damage in the economy to get

that huge concerns about why so? well, i'm curious on how people actually feeling about travel right now in are everyone loves the european summers, but we've all the new variance, especially people are a little anxious about helping on a plane. the latest survey i have seen, and this is for the u. k. normally we are, it's really actually traveling through the german about wanting to try to remove the why many times concerns other than say you're going to be something that you can get. and that will be the theater trip to europe, where they came upon,

the mountains and summer. i'm ready when you rebuilding to july. and finally, how quick came to think taurus for line businesses will actually recover. i mean they've taken such a huge hit. can they recruit some of those costs? so people thought, celebrating travel again? yes. and they don't see much trouble. certainly. businesses on 202020. assuming that the world is much comma by that should be the ever lot of people have dreamed that the money they got, but they would like to use some of the recreational and that's why the european countries, while they kind of proposing k for kind of unified e with registered travel directory, all trying to get me in operation maximizing the

search bar to be particularly very concerned about the barrier to murray pregnant now in the u. k. well, let me ask you then about the vaccine possible assessment. so much controversy about them and we've also had a lot about the e u green ta scheme. but i know that some countries also have the agency to decide how that's being implemented. how coordinated is all of that. it's going to make me, i'm going to be going for a month now, and there is no internationally agreed to the nearest way ahead of anyone else you're, you know, europe, recent tone sharing. i'm lucky and i'll be back in a quite a not agree we'll get your appeared to me read the
