a journalist in addis ababa. he says the conflict is now spilling out into other areas. this are serious allegations that the u. s. and even the philip and human rights commission, which is a government agency, said they would look closely and investigate and find out exactly what happened. you know, for the good part of the year we had no access to the, to great region. we haven't had access for the money weeks since june. so again, it's allegations going back and forth between the ethiopian side and the t p a left . but what we know for certain is that millions, so feet, your parents have become displaced. there are conditions of famine that's going on, not just within to grade, but within the, our region. and i'm part of a region. so a conflict that begun and to dry as really heading to other regions and making it a real concern. ethiopians far and near they to a band side and says that t pair left out preventing aid from heading to the region. the japan side accuses

of some of the you and agencies and even among your parents at some mainstream, concerned that the u. n. is providing resources to the t p a left and that the peer left is accusing ethiopia of really preventing it from arriving to it's region. so it's one of those conflicts that you need to really be careful. and without a way to verify some of this allegations, it's really, really difficult to know the facts of the un explaining sassy dance at west floods in 60 years on climate change for some areas, it's now the fed straight. yeah. and extreme flooding, endangering livelihoods and the wilds. youngest nation, the you and refugee agencies has 700000 people have been affected, and entire villages have been swept away. as unity, i was seeing these as intensifying effects of climate change. so today has been very prone to cyclical drugs and floods, sometimes happening the same time in

a year. and this is nothing but just the effects of attention climate. so structures like roads and bridges have been washed away or have been destroyed by the floods. and so we found ourselves in a situation where we have limited access to affected communities, which means that these affected communities are therefore cut off from vital humanitarian assistance or gun and have killed at least 7 people at a ring, a refugee camp in bangladesh. the attack happened in the early hours of friday morning at a religious school and cox's bazaar. one person has been arrested last month or a hing elidah. mo, he buelo was shot dead in that camp. the government had promised to step up security. i'll alley i spoke to ronan lead. he's the author of me on mars, rethink a genocide and a visiting scholar with queen mary university of london's state crime initiative. he says organized crime is rising near those camps. this is the last thing that the

ring a community needs to see happening. what i think we're seeing is that groups that were previously militant to political groups, what the era can bring to salvation army have morphed or been taken over by organized crime gangs. and we're seeing this throughout the frontiers. most frontiers with every country that there's a rise of organized crime scene, the qu in me, and now we're seeing it in thailand. we're seeing it on the border in india and we're seeing it now. unfortunately, in the ring it communities along with the bangladesh, me enough frontier. and it's unfortunate for the ringer that they happened to be resident on the, on the border. and that's, i think making things worse for them. but it's, it's bad, bad news for the remainder. it's not a situation that is in their interests, the ring a community do not want to be seen in bangladesh as a law. this group that are bringing conflict to bangladesh and it's not the view of the majority of the reading community. i mean, most reading,

moderate people who want to have access to the human rights and to look after their families and have an educate their children. but they have been pressured in many instances as we're seeing. and i think what we saw today was payback to people who had been in communication with the authorities, talking about criminality of other groups. and they were been punished by those group by that group today. now hazy is national police chief has resigned to after protests against a deteriorating security situation there and gang violence work as have been on a general strike. now since monday, following the abduction of a group of christian missionaries, the leader of the haitian gang, accused of kidnapping 16 americans, one canadian, has threatened to kill them if a ransom isn't paid. manual rapidly reports now from puerto france. another d of protest in puerto prince o protesters set up road blocks across the city,

the israeli government approved the status of 4000 palestinians living in the occupied west bank. many of them were undocumented, meaning that they'd been separated from their families. since israel controls all access to the area need abraham reports. after 23 years of waiting, israel has allowed amount had left to change his address from the gaza strip to the occupied west bank. now he can move freely in the west bank without fearing he could be sent back to gaza. although i was born and raised in the west bank, his fathers originally from gaza. so that means his official documents list garza as his place of residence. and he needed in his really approval to change that. his wife laina is also from gaza, but she has not yet received an approval to change her residency to the west bank. and if she crosses to gaza, she won't be able to return to her husband in the west bank. they did that and i was very happy for him, but was sad for myself. it's been 6 years since i last saw my family and garza or

hm. as i can now travel outside the west bank. i want to go see my mother. she lives in jordan and we haven't been able to see each other and probably up all the palestinian interior ministry processes requests for i d. 's and passport. but his real control of the population registry and decides who can get to palestinian identification cards and a passport. it also controls who can travel across the occupied region. israel's government says it's approved for 1000 such requests on a humanitarian basis. in august, these really defense minister said is we're will approve thousands of new past indian ideas to strengthen the palestinian authority, but palestinian officials say they've been tricked. does the majority of the recent approvals were changes of residency? only they want the u. s. to pressure israel to approve more identification cards, that will make it easier for people to move around. even though this idea will mean living during his really military rule. it's still

a dream for tens of thousands of people here. it allows them to be near their families without here on the quotation. this is the fear center awesome knows all too well. yeah. she hasn't been able to see her family in jordan since she got married and moved to the west bank 25 years ago. that has ever happened. i want to hug my brothers and sisters, nieces and nephews. i want to see my family's house, my neighbourhood. i miss all my memories there. just a few months ago senate came to this border area by the river jordan to see her family. she can now cross to the other side, but many others will remain stuck on the west side of the river. did abraham elijah's eda the occupied westbank hall? the mean time israel's defense ministry has labeled 6 prominent palestinian civil society groups as terrorist organizations. among those and yours listed are a human rights organization and a research center. i spoke to mr. karen,

he is the israel and palestine director of human rights watch and he says, the international community must do what it can to get israel to quickly reverse this decision. i mean, we're talking about 6 the palestine was prominent civil society organizations under the law issue. this decision, these organizations are subject to being shut down, having their assets seize, to having their members detained in jail. so in fact, this decision could outlaw those organizations. now how and when and if he is really government as really come down to whether or not the international community finally speaks out and imposes consequences on the israeli government. for these brazen abuses they've gotten away from it for decades. and that's why i reached this point. i mean, these are organizations that have already faced no travel bands. raids on their offices in a variety of restrictions. so, you know, these are organizations, i should note that not only report on israeli human rights abuse, they do critical work around abuse,

but healthier 40 by amass authorities. so i think certainly it's difficult to ever predict when a particular event could trigger unrest. but as we saw, it may sometimes the sort of routine mechanics of repression, whether they be home demolitions, whether they be repression of civil society groups could, at any time, you know, trigger the communities that are affected to speak up and stand up for their right . so i think it's important the international community now and not wait for the hot violence to break out to react to the old violence of institutionalized repression. now conservationists in georgia are fighting to protect a family of endangered duration office. they are living on a river island in the center of tbilisi. robin price to walker has the story in downtown to please seat at dawn, the fisherman and not the only masters of the croft. this is the moment. a family of offices is seen on a fishing expedition, an extremely rare encounter,

of worried murphy, pro fraud so that he will go what is heavily i think the situation is worse. and now, 3 years ago, we were seen many more traces droppings, and i've seen this year. i never thought i'd get excited about animal droppings, but here is incontrovertible evidence of multiple a cramps, cool from a fresh water crab eaten from this river by an auto the island is virtually all that remains of the autumn habitat in the city. 70 heck, days of natural forest, the meadows have been destroyed in just a few years by illegal waste disposal and gravel mining. local residents have 4 to successful campaigns, end the destruction. now they want the area restored to its natural state. i think it's more sustainable way of investing money to have a result,

maybe not to morrow and in one year, but in 10 years. but it will be like 10 times on a 10 times larger territory and it will have like 100 times larger impact maintaining by a diversity ecology of their safety. researches have showed the island is vital suitably sees of the population plans to turn it into a recreational park have since been shelved. it's now a candidate to join european emerald network of protected areas. there is still hope for these authors, and that footage like this will inspire their human neighbors to cherish them or risk losing them forever. robin 1st year walker al jazeera tbilisi. ah hello, this is al jazeera.
