a very critical election in turkey because many people say that it's time for the ruling party and her is president jeff taper and who have been governing this country for 22 years to go. that's why it more delirium 1st time for this election, 6 opposition parties have gathered around the table a despite that they are coming from difference. ideological background is one of them is employees. love is one of them is a national park. viola and the other ones are 2 of them are up party. okay, so this is a very important step for the opposition into is to prove that different ideas, different ideologies come cut and can come together for just one goal. busy is to replace the president, this is what they say. of course they were and they have been some disagreements among the opposition party members, especially out there friday,

the 2nd largest part to leader men election and threatened to pull out from the alliance as she was suggesting that the candidates should be either a stumble maker, mom older or encore, a mayor monster realized because, according to the public pools and those to me years had a bigger chance to win against president bridget. they fired on that. finally, we see that the main opposition leader has succeeded reuniting. and those parties, again, they have announced his presidential candidacy today and he pledges that all other 5 members, opposition, member parties leaders will also become vice president, including if someone made i come to my home and on kind of may want to realize that critical election for 2 tables, of course, there are 2 months into the selection and in to get everything changed so quickly and cinema, i'm actually response to the effect how people vote in these connections. do you

think well the in doing the earthquakes, especially for the 2 of the 1st 2 and 3 days, the turkish government has been harsh. the course sized by old citizens. y'all position even by its own supporters that they have been late in relief for it was the weather conditions. it was a being unprepared for the earthquake. there were so many reasons behind this. what, of course, the government was accused for not being prepared under target concentration papers on immediately admitted that no live that government had mistake. oh, that was one of the for the government and the opposition. there has been still on this. they have been criticizing the government harshly against oh, the negative situation experience on the ground. and because of the dive,

which way some people are going through right now. but the turkish president currently is trying to get over these by trying to start new housing project, lead to many people. i left a homeless a live in the past and containers in those i was with housing project. and the reason would, of course, it'll take some time into here to accomplish all these projects. and this is one of the ha on the machine last testing in cross blue there and reporting that from turkey. well, this archie is in bangladesh investigating the cause of a massive fire. a never hang the refugee camping cox is bizarre. a day off to the fiber account, the ruins still smoldering. thousands of people already forced from their homes in me and not by a minute. she crack down, i've lost that in the shelter. come to chancellor reports from the camp. as you can

see behind me is 1011 in bala colleague cox's bazaar. now this is just outside of the camp. you can still see the fire. it's still on here, it's surprising. there's no fire brigade here to dive this fire was seriously poses a threat to the nearby hops and other shops here. most of these areas where shops, a lot of the rowing are called by god, what to do that groceries and all that total devastation. as you can see, fortunately, nobody died there was some minor ranger is talking to the messages that told me that list. several people had minor injuries but nothing serious. but nearly 12000 people were displaced. over 2000 homes were totally burned to ashes. many suspect it could be one of these cylinders hold, the fire started because a lot of this explored or a glance fire, and then it spreads. how about the rumor within the camp?

talking to many of the reading that said it was a video abby dance. we cannot verify that independently though, but the work and rehabilitation work has started on a lot of volunteers there that are taking food and water to those are affected. now we spoke to the commissioner, refugee relief and rehabilitation. he said the government as well as the agencies are doing best to accommodate those who are without shelters and temporary accommodation. many of them are living with their family members. i just run with my children. everything is destroyed. we looked at freaking, we had quoted you on a bit of everything. just been to ashes. now we don't have anything. yeah, that was enough. food. no shelter, nothing. but the children, the woman here are very traumatized. this is not the 1st wire incident that happened in this cam. 7 was running

a route as it is very frustrated. they're suffering from anxiety because there is no hope for repatriation. there's no jobs and i'll be, i had the latest news. the russians will be cut back from this month. according to un universities in afghanistan have reopened after the winter break, but the telephone authorities are still barring women from attending. foreign ministers and rights groups have condemned the restrictions which united nations has called gender partied. victoria gave be report, ah, another set back for the women of afghanistan. this is emily mover. it's the start of a new university term, but only men are allowed to attend. many here at cobble university urging the authorities to reconsider from charla donovan. i am hopeful that the eldest and the officials of the islamic emirates of afghanistan will allow our sisters to continue their studies. because it's, there is law make right. it came or another mother. now the,

we don't have female students. one part of our society is prospering. while the other ones left behind is a female students are allowed, our society will improve 100 perceived. the taliban government band women from higher education 3 months ago after accusing female students of ignoring a strict dress code and a requirement to be accompanied by a male relative to and from campus. this be widespread international condemnation of the band, but no sign of a change in that decision. there's an element of all of this coming from the taliban insistence to try and distinguish themselves from the previous regime in afghanistan, try and show to their constituents to this of autism fighters in particular that they are not like the previous government since it returned to power in 2021. the taliban has also banned girls under a team from going to school, prohibited women from working for 8 organizations and banned women from pox jims

and public baths. rights groups who support african women say it's had a devastating impact on afghan society to say where these women are now in afghanistan, i just hope they're safe. and if they're outside, they're just gotten to the winds and it's just not the way the world should be in this then. and you should never in the way to well to be. and i don't understand. i don't understand the thinking behind it. i just don't. after the taliban took power in afghanistan, it promised women fundamental rights. 18 months on it systematically excluding them from public life. victoria gate and b algae 0. iran's supreme leader says that the poisoning of school girls is an unforgivable crime which should be punished by death if deliberate. wilner 1000 girls have been infected since november. it's fucking public anger. some politicians are blamed attacks on religious groups opposed to girls education. further attacks were reported over the weekend the

poisonings, following monks of protests over the death of a young woman in police custody myself. when miss i got a, this is an important issue. if there really hands involved and people groups are involved in this matter, this is a big and unforgivable crime and he's responsible agencies, intelligent services and law enforcement agencies must pursue them. and the perpetrators must be condemned to severe punishments. it is a serious, an unforgivable crime. there will be no amnesty for them the best russia's defense minister as visiting areas in ukraine under russian control. on monday. so i guess she'll go toward the port city of maria pico to see reconstruction efforts. devastated. ukrainian city has been under russia's control since may, following a months long siege should visit, coincides with renewed criticism of his ministry, or the head of russia's wagner and lessened regroup. if any precaution says his father's position around the eastern ukrainian city of buck, much could collapse unless ammunition and other supplies promised by russia arrived

receive mon 20 percent of their funding from abroad law, which is very similar to legislation passed in russia, would require them to register as agents of foreign influence. and you believe this would damage georgia chances of joining the european union supposedly vassal, georgia society absolutely deserve to know which organizations are being financed from which source and how that money is being spent off. we are talking about accountability and transparency. there are no restrictions whatsoever placed on people by this law. oh gosh, well leash law. we see as a disaster for georgia because this is how it has cited in russia. and this is where our government is leading us to. these law is a serious mtv move to georgia's european theater. cutting edge gene therapies could become more accessible in the coming years as

what scientists and policy makers are discussing at the human genome editing conference in london. town hall attended the 1st day of the summit and hasn't report victoria grey isn't used to the limelight, a mum from mississippi. she's now the star attraction at the human genome editing summit in london. here to describe the treatment that's changed her life. i think it is a great thing. oh, done. there was a good quality of life where you don't have to suffer because my disease i didn't use i was, is blowing head into the, into a pain in hospital stays. it was a life there. i feel wasn't worth living. victoria has been cured of debilitating sickle cell disease by an experimental gene editing treatment. her story represents a major advance with implications for millions born with the red blood disease each

year. inherited diseases like sickle cell, cystic fibrosis and huntington's. begin as variations in genes, the codes in human dna that tell the body how to make cells. new tools like the so called crisper system confined cut and replace faulty parts of genes to deliver a corrected genetic code. senior research is like fyodor or enough for see a world in which crisper is able to provide a rapid cure for the genetic mutations that encounters the next horizon. the next, the break for, for us as a community, is to take that amazing technology and make it available, manufactured at such scale for the 10s of millions around the world who have a mutation that needs to be crisper. today, it is a goal that raises important ethical concerns with one of the greatest concerns is that we're really moving into what many people would call potentially not yet,

but soon. a soft eugenics in which it's not just what do you want? have a baby, it's what kind of baby do you want to have and you know, the potential for enhancement is there to be clear. no one at this summit is talking about eugenics. in fact, when a chinese scientist announced, and it's very 4 or 5 years ago that he onto the genetic makeup of embryos in a lab and then brought them to turn it around. cement was met with shock and outrage. i felt like i have nothing to lose out. i was it with the end, but very precise editing of genetic code to treat and cure read diseases is making its way from the experimental to the practical will be at currently at enormous cost. the next great challenge is to make it accessible and affordable walk. jonah whole al jazeera london plenty more few. anytime on our website address for that is out here dot com. and watch us by clicking on the live icon out of here dot com.
