leave her parties as will that separated. but i hope after the election, those voice come together and for them they could, they could this tiny block in baghdad that lack of unity is one of the reasons many kurdish people are frustrated with that politicians. now that may well have an impact on the ballot box, much like a lot of parts of iraq. the boy called the voice movement is getting increasingly more vocal even here in our bill. whether that has an impact on the ballot boats remains to be seen, but it's certainly a big talking points more than a 100 people are dead or missing. after a boat sank on the congo river authorities in mongolia province have been on the scene since the vessel capsized on monday night. 39 people survived and 51 bodies were recovered on friday. kenya has launched a new conservation drive, offering people the chance to name an elephant for around $5000.00. the country
