12:02 am
a teary and neighboring north keybo province have been governed by the security forces in what is termed a state of siege. but alas, international says the strategy has led to abuses rather than greater security and civilian massacres have continued. security tracker says around $2500.00 civilians were killed in the last year. nor about manly reports and warning you may find some of the images distressing. the bodies of most the women, children, even babies killed in eastern democratic republic of congo. the victims were hiding in the forests at area of geography in a tory province for several months after fleeing attacks on the villages. local government officials blame the armed groups could deco for monday's rate and 24 hours earlier. this happened bodies strewn among the burning embers of a village, mostly women and children. again, the majority of the dozens of victims. they were killed in an attack by another

groups. could deco and the allied democratic forces accused of massacres. that despite a joint operation by con, believe and you can and thought is, oh, every time there is, ah, ah, a dance under the cordell go. there is our story prisoner on the, on the civilian in that that the big issue is that there is not enough ah, measure taken to make sure that, ah, ah, civilians are predicted. kenya has hosted talks to end the long running conflict on group calling for the relief of political prisoners and, and the fee for their fighters. but following the late of the tax, many a concerned that the military approach isn't working and will lead to more reprisals in villages like this one was law about manly al jazeera
12:05 am
jacqueline straight feel whole is a director of policy and research for the global center for the responsibility to protect which works to mobilize the international community to act in situations where populations are at risk of mass atrocity crime. she joins me from chicago, thanks very much indeed for being with us. so they seem to be incredibly brutal attacks in this area that they're yes, thank you. lauren. i'm unfortunately of the attack on the mine and may bring village in a terry ledger absolutely devastating loss of life and attacks on women and children. as you have just shown, and unfortunately this sort of attack is not new. i could deco am allied democratic forces have been committing atrocities like this for many years in this area. and as the state of sea is, has taken place over the past year. those attacks have become particularly gram, so that to the state of seizures because it tells us how that works more effectively martial law on how come it hasn't made any difference. it is
12:06 am
effectively martial law. the government deployed approximately 20000 troops to the 2 provinces with reported aim of combating arm groups and protecting civilians under what they've labeled the state of siege. they've effectively replaced the civilian government in the area with the military officials. but there's really been no indication that increased military operations have improved protection of civilians most at risk. they've used repressive military strategies to attack the arm groups, but that's contributed to an escalation of the conflict. these are groups are known for retaliating against government offensive by specifically targeting civilians and where the alms coming from and the funding for the, for these groups. eastern congo is very rich in natural resources. and as we can see,
12:07 am
one of the attacks was on mine and so the arm groups very frequently sort of exploit those resources and take advantage of the fact that the eastern congo has very porous borders, where they can trade resources into other countries. and as a result, get arms in return. what about the u. n. presence committed them even peacekeeping mission in d. c. money goes is, is $1.00 of the largest, isn't it? how effective they been? absolutely, meniscus is one of the largest missions and it also has sort of a very specific mandate where it can combat arm groups like this. and over the years they have been effective at times of protecting civilians, but congo has very challenging fighting environments. there is terrain issues where the ability to transport information from a village that might be at risk of attack to those who could provide protections,
12:08 am
takes time that it can't reach them in time. there's also an issue of there so many armed groups in eastern congo, the area has approximately $120.00 active arm groups, most of which have been active for decades. and so as those groups buy it, as they massacre civilians, lisco and the government armed forces are often playing a game of sort of putting out little fires everywhere. as a result, they can't combat the systemic issues because they're focused on the sort of little battles throughout the eastern area. and he mentioned earlier that the, the armed response doesn't appear to be helping what solutions do you think might work to, to, to make a difference in that area to. so the arm response, i think, taking exclusively an arm response is an extreme problem. partly because the affair do you see the government's security forces are known for perpetrating attacks that
12:09 am
may constitute crimes against civilians themselves there and not taking proper precautions to ensure the safety of civilians when fighting these groups. and so one thing that needs to be done is sort of re establishing trust between the government and civilians and let civilians know that they will be protected by security forces as the fighting continues. but beyond that, i think it's important to make clear to the government, but military solutions are not going to end these attacks. they need to address the systemic issues in the country. some of which are economic, many of which are political and then they're also inter communal grievances between different ethnic groups in the east that need to address that b as arm groups don't continue to form, don't continue to gain strength through local grievances checking, instruct, hello. thank you very much for the fullness. thank you. coming up on the news hour from london. i afghan women define the taliban protesting
12:10 am
against an order to cover their faces in public. the son of disgraced philippine leader ferdinand marcus tells the world to judge him by his actions not his ancestors after his presidential election. victory and well, number one novak truck of it is through to the next round in rome. he should have the option in sport. ah, if his unrest over shall anchors, economic crisis is spiraling out of control. the military has been ordered to shoot any one causing injury to people or property. after at least 8 people died the day before. the protest as a refusing to back down demanding the president got to buy a raj effect sir, also resign after his brother may hinder step down as prime minister on monday. we know fernandez reports from columbus, a trail of destruction followed routing into lanka. soldiers of joined police to
12:11 am
enforce them to take a few ended step in the violence. the government's failure to solve the unprecedented economic crisis. his angered people here reminisced among the raj boxer, resigned after weeks of pleasure, would protest as c, that's not enough. and want his brother who's president, to go to we are standing here until gord, darby raj, a boxer, go home. and not only that, we are demanding for the new interim government to establish new laws under the 21st amendment. and beyond that, we need to abolish their executive presidency. thousands like him had protested blissfully for more than a month outside the president's office. but said the prime minister, supporters attacked them on monday. dozens of buses were destroyed in the ferocious fighting which followed. and via he paused, dumped in
12:12 am
a li lease investigators and the local magistrate inspected the damage. the unions condemned what they described as a fan attack on peaceful and to go to says, i read more and they both provincial politician to the primary residence, to my dogs, to attack, to protest we are legal action, be taken against my him to roger park. so we're setting fire to this country trade unions. it started a strike and seed won't end until i got the president and government resign my. there's a proper investigation to the attack on this is on the forms of politicians who set on fire and in the sword on the highest bank police offers in the western province as increased concern that the crisis is spiraling out of control. the defense ministry has authorized the armed forces to shoot anyone steaming or assaulted. anyone shall onqua is facing. it's was economic crisis since independence in 1948
12:13 am
and destruction of this scale. it just cannot afford observer sale. what adds insult to injury is that it could have been avoided. mina fernandez, al jazeera, colombo, international donors at a conference in brussels, have promised $6700000000.00 for syria, saying the conflict has not been forgotten. it slightly more than the conference raised last year. the money goes to syrians and neighboring countries, hosting refugees not to the sanctioned government in damascus. aid organizations have warned the war and ukraine could make food insecurity worse in syria and, and host countries such as lebanon and egypt. you know, that good needs remain enormous even of serious. not any more on earth, from badges on the head aligned over do media or under. whoa. he really, we talk less about shelia. we are very much aware that 92 percent of c d
12:14 am
and living in syria live in poverty. 90 percent means everybody. everybody in syria. although the people belonging to the regime regime poverty charges have the children has released a stock overview of the food situation in afghanistan, where aid is failing to meet the growing need. it says, 9600000 children are going hungry every day. because of afghanistan's economic collapse, ongoing drought, and the impact of the war and ukraine. total nearly 20000000 people. almost half the population faced high levels of acute food insecurity from march to made. despite a major aid initiative, the project, a number of facing the same level of acute food insecurity, is not expected to for significantly, about 19000000 people. half of them children are expected to remain in hunger from june to november or key. and so here is a humanitarian policy and advocacy,
12:15 am
an advisor at save the children is just returned to london doctor visit to cobble don't just now i skype. i just want to ask you how difficult is for people to feed their families. what did you witness when you were there? yeah, i mean it's getting more and more difficult. by the day it seems. and we spoke to a number of families in and around couple in manga on some of the eastern provinces . and i think that's mean every situation is a little bit different, but lots of consistencies. and the stories that we're hearing one is the, is the situation of the economy that is driving most of these needs. so lots of people have lost their jobs. the price is rising, we have some of the contributions and ukraine to that, but largely it's down to some of the economic interventions which are international governments, policy decisions. and so the economy is a, as a matter factor and an equally, i think, since august obviously issues have got much, much worse,
12:16 am
but it comes on top of drought and it comes in trouble. code 9, teens. i mean, i think these numbers have been getting less deadlier over time, so they shouldn't become too much of a surprise protected to governments. but hopefully now taking these numbers it can kick them in together and increase the response and understand some food. aid is, is reaching families, but what the issues for, for getting it out to them or to those who need it most. yeah, i mean, relief is some of the economic issues that we face is really hard to get money into the country. but it's also really hard to get money around the country. and so a lot of the overseas assets, the central bank for example, held have been for isn't still wide raging sanctions on the taliban. and which means that it's really difficult for banks to operate. and also i think a lot of the kind of middle class have left a lot of money's last. so again, going that leads issues of unemployment. they just isn't that much caching system. and so that makes it challenging to operate. but primarily it makes it really,
12:17 am
really difficult for households to cope. and we've heard from fema household in particular and how the, the loss of employment and the changes in the environment. and it's on the license announcements on and women's dress for example. it's really, really challenging environment for households at the moment. and the economy is a big part of that and i think that's why and in the context of these figures, i think the 1st instinct is what can we do on humanitarian support? and can we get food in the country and into communities? but really, i think miles upon governments to take a step back in a long, hard look at what the economic interventions they can make sure to get the economy going. again, you mentioned that the, the latest restrictions on the top and announcing further restriction on women. just the last couple of days. you said that color faces in public. and one of the responses from to, to do with, to do with that from the foreign office. here in the u. k. was responsibility of what happens in grandson lives with the taliban will judge them by their actions,
12:18 am
not their words. if they want international acceptance, they must live up to the obligations and commitments, prickly on the rights of women and girls. given given that some of those assets that you mentioned were frozen on condition that the taliban so changed how they operated. the fact that taliban have now made things worse for women is that can be more difficult for, for money to be on frozen, for, for the situation to be improved. yeah, i mean i was, i think one of the things i would say, and we need to make sure that we will we stay principle not just on issues, i guess, but on that, and she's a, for example, go education, which has been a massive, massive problem over the last few months, but there isn't really and alternative content back on the children's. like i was visiting one of my house can and just before last and the vast majority of children are coming in, they're experiencing money, tricia and their risk of pneumonia. their lives literally are hanging in violence. so i think, yes, we need to be principal. yes. we need to make sure the governments are making
12:19 am
a stands on some of the issues and not on children's rights about the same time. as i say, we content on african children particular in the context of these figures. 10000000 children in a kind of life threatening division of hunger. and we need to stay nice monetary response as well as missing some of the longer term solutions when it comes to funding over multiple years. and i'm looking for a key in silica. thank you very much, need 1st off, just thank you. the insecurity council meet on thursday to discuss the afghan tele bands order for women to cover their faces in public. we were just talking about women have been out protesting in cobble in defiance of the decree which was announced on saturday. it states that women should leave the home only when necessary, and male relatives would be responsible for enforcing the dress code or face punishment. they will do, it has drawn a backlash from the international community as well as from many afghans. i'm more more midway him, but heis is under john. bah, we want to be known as living creatures. we want to be known as human beings. not
12:20 am
like slaves imprisoned in the corner of the house. and we've organized this protest because the taliban is imposing their culture on afghan women under the name of the job. ever since the taliban seized power at afghanistan, all their projects have been against women. they want to limit and eliminate women from the field of society and politics. 35 people, most of them children have been left homeless after his really authorities demolished a residential building in occupied his jerusalem. the 3 story structure was torn down because it didn't have the right required permits israel to marsh's palestinian properties, but don't have building approvals which can be difficult to obtain. the u. n says at least 40 buildings have been destroyed in east jerusalem this year. displacing about a 100 people, ukraine's military says it's recaptured several villages in the northeast from
