crossing with thousands of ethnic armenians are leaving the corner from east to it towards the boston troops from the jail weeks of tension with the military jump into the, from the stage to the streets. we look at how often tate of storing installation is bringing the cutting down on many on the rights groups say, iraq, you detainees, how that the infamous us run out of grade prison and all the facilities are still waiting to get justice. it's been more than 20 years since the us led coalition invaded a rock human rights watch of keys is washington, a failing to provide compensation to rockies, who a torch event by american forces around 800000 rockies were detained between 2003.
12:02 pm
to add 2009, many say till today they continue to suffer from the long term effects of torture. american gods with seen stimulating acts of sexual abuse, all naked inmates. cases of the things um for long sleep and sensory deprivation, what will say are documented after an international outcry, 11 us so just were convicted of being involved and abuses at abu ghraib. but most americans service members who were accused of carry out the acts of torture, were reprimanded without being charged with human rights watch track down one torture survivor. this is kind of emotionally story dis, heading the physical and mental suffering. he still struggles with today would have done the model of the, the a, the p o. what zip code you took out until sunday and what kind of more had it since i had one or. yeah, was the how does this a have bus on them on the, on the the 2nd. yeah. and is married and has it on what has is that would she in

12:04 pm
yeah. and just from the city from the city. oh, that sounds, that sounds and a lot of making sure that it's mental and physical health deteriorated intervals. today he started to self harm by biting his hands and arms . gardening, them all. i thought i finished and i said are they said if you had looked at it, had it on why i thought i would do it a lot. oh yeah. and your next. yeah. so i'm on the dentist. yeah, no, no, it's not a citizen. i'm well that was my usual sort of gone by me as a landline this. yeah. and i had someone from the seattle issue, one of them had a call, the head of the sarah assemble as an iraq here was such a human rights watch who track this and why that we just listen to. we spoke to her a little earlier. she says some steps have to be taken by the us government for any kind of meaningful accounts for the see the us to take some steps to prosecute most
12:05 pm
the low ranking soldiers as to the business were committed. but unfortunately, we didn't see any officers held accountable under the command of doctrine as kilometers on the 3rd, which is something that the us has failed to do. and unfortunately, unfortunately, we also haven't seen prosecutions, of perpetrators coupled with redress their victims. we're calling on the us government to do 3 main things. the 1st is that it needs to review all the allegations of abuse and investigate cases based on transparent criteria. second, it needs to initiate prosecutions against anyone found to be involved regardless of their rank or position. and finally, it needs to open a pathway where supervisors can come forward and make a claim to how their case heard by the us government to receive compensation, apologies and other forms of address. a speak to a correspond ahold that the,
12:06 pm
i mean, who enjoys us on the set and has come with the story extensively hold a you will actually eden rock reporting on the iraq war and the early 2 thousands. was it common knowledge that uh, what was going on that upgrade? the coming knowledge was that the people were rounded up uh, randomly. uh specifically, if you were a sidney um that they were a lot of rumors and lots of tools that there was a torture happening um, difficult living conditions for the prisoners. there are no due process, but i don't think anyone imagined uh what was really happening. and i remember that they very well when those pictures came out, i was on the streets filming, and back then i got a phone call from the office. so you need to call me back immediately because something big happened and they will be repercussions on the spot and the mentally
12:07 pm
that exactly what happened. and i remember that those pictures were really sent a shockwave. i mean, i think that shockwave was well beyond the borders of iraq itself. um, certainly in the ad world in the why the muslim world i am, i think all the way to the coalition partners of the us at the time. i remember the, the british were very shocked about it because the us administration knew the story was about to break, but didn't inform the british partners about it. so it was a huge shock, especially when you see those pictures and how graphic they are and the extent to which they went really to hear me to be sold. these are prisoners with these beaming smiling soldiers next to it. i don't think anyone was ready for that. an annual reporting, you have the chance to actually speak to ministry,
12:08 pm
come on those of us soldiers who were working at the time. what did they say to you? i mean, there were a few who spoke out and actually the story became known to all of us because of a soldier who had come across these pictures. we didn't agree with what was going on and linked it to the americans need. yeah. um, they were saying that the country to what the bush administration was trying to say this was actually happening systematically. and at the time it was an election year back into us. the 2nd term for george w bush. and this is what the message that was coming out from washington. there are no longer torture chambers or rape rooms for mass graves. as a result, a friend of terror has been removed. now since so contrary to what the president was saying, the people we spoke to were saying no,
12:09 pm
this was sanctioned. at the highest levels of the pentagon, there was eventually, after that documents that were d classified that was signed by donald rumsfeld, who was the secretary of defense of the time that showed that it needs to be much more a harsher treatment of these prisoners. and then there was a famous general jeffrey miller, who had just come from glen dynamo and would actually, according to want a brigadier general. i spoke to. she said that in the 1st meeting they had was jeffrey miller's. he said that the, the, these prisoners were treated to well and they needed to be treated like dogs. and i, sorry, i asked her dogs. and she said, yes, he said dogs. and he said that that that would be the only way for them to get information out of the prisoners because what was happening outside of those of you
12:10 pm
had already $500.00. so are you as soldiers that it was an election year? do us was focus on passing silver 20 to the iraq is which was supposed to happen a few months later. so what was happening in guantanamo was something they didn't want to know. what was happening on the street choose what they called an increase in insurgency, where it says that the rock is looked at it as resistance was also on the increase . and the bush administration was in a very difficult position. so they wanted to get information from these prisoners, even though many didn't have that information. how do i can understand a certain extent, what you're saying 20 years ago. it was a very sensitive time for the bush administration, but it has been now so many years since that happened. why has they not been any accountability since then why the victims still struggling to get justice? i think because i believe is probably not an isolated case. mean,
12:11 pm
we've heard the testimonies of people who were held, for example in guantanamo who came up with similar stories. i mean version of it, but the core of it, which is the utter humiliation of a person was, is still there. you probably have similar stories in bad gram. i mean, bagley, i mean, i've gotten this done was a big issue and this was one of the, you know, sort of slogans of the taliban at the time is the how the americans were treating people inside their um, so you would have a long list of people who are probably could turn up and say, well, this happened to me that happened to me. you have the vic terms of the condition programs and then you have other victims. i mean, outside of the prisons, i remember i used to go on raids with the u. s. army at, at night at the time it was, they were looking for saddam hussein. but those raids were happening either sometimes in quite a shockey way. you'd see these soldiers, storm in 2 villages,
12:12 pm
storm into the female quarters of a house knowing very well that in that culture that a man doesn't storm into that kind of areas. and knowing that the fema usually have like little to do with whatever it's happening. i've seen them, for example, want going to a house looking for a person not finding that person, detaining a young child and is the so the father goes and picks him up. so there's a lot of things that happen. so i think once you open the front door is books of compensation, you would have people claiming a different levels, but it would be a long list of people that are really good to get your perspective. what about how many you'd speaking to us the right now, our media says it's making provisions for tens of thousands of people who may flee to go in a kind of back off to the light to cease fi. within a 1000 ethnic, albanians have crossed over. sorry, fall from the enclave and as a by john. so i'm a pinch of a report. the 1st humanitarian convoy arrived in the car about the region with 70
12:13 pm
tons of ascension supplies. the lot to inquire door between azerbaijan and armenia . has been open to allow an aid and a safe passage for those who want to exit the other by johnny to treat berkeley says it is also sending food and supplies for the see sign agreement, the ethnic armenian leaders. hundreds, the main stranded and ethnic, i mean, you can see correction peacekeepers protection control this airport. most people sled fitting the arrival of other badge and the soldiers despite blackwell, seeing that people of armenian defend, will have constitutional rights. many, including valerie, think it's safer to move on regard and get them. who can give us the guarantee we found a lead to have desperately ran away and came here. shall we go so that the young people are killed along the way? they're not too many or so, i mean in 5 minutes, then he called pushing you and is seeking effective mechanisms of protection for armenians. it sneak zip armenians, and they go into a car box continue to face the threat of ethnic cleansing. and recent days
12:14 pm
humanitarian aid has arrived. but this does not change the situation unless re living conditions are created. an effective mechanisms of protection from ethnic cleansing. then the armenians have nicole in a car buff. we'll see excel from their homelands. armenians claim to go into a car box has their ancestral homeland, but the mountainous region is indignation. and these recognize as part of either by john in the latest minute v push were deposited by john calls a counterterrorism offensive. was aimed at desponding and disarming ethnic. i mean in fight as will not have ended their weapons. this is the widow used to belong to the automated army forces detachment and they'll say to go out, i mean, i mean, your forces got here and it was seized from them just in the last 2 days during the last to this mounting internationally concerned about i mean civilians either by john is
12:15 pm
a short and caught about residents that there will be no prosecution. tens of thousands of ethnic albanians have lived in the car about the region for over 3 decades. now the other by johnny government tells them that civilians and those who laid down their weapons been not be prosecuted to take time for people to decide whether they want to stay or leave. some of the job of the vera, the gun, and the caught about 3 to as well as some of it today and joins us now live from the election for the crossing in azerbaijan or some of what is the situation where you are. what are you hearing? a lot of people crossing back into a meeting in the last few minutes we've spoken to the gods here who tell us more than 4000 people have no cross in the last 24 hours in to i mean yeah. from the kind of by region behind us, as you can see right now, these are washing pieces who are moving from the corner of the region to where the
12:16 pm
other side, we've seen a steady flow of peacekeepers off the individuals in the cause and they have trucks and they're laurie, whatever we can, whenever they could get their hands on the path and they are leaving, although they've been guaranteed given by either by john, for these people that they will be facing otherwise, any citizen, many of them do not believe it. and as you heard, there has been a long history to why that is the case because if there was a boy in the 1990, there's been awarded in 2020. and in the last week or so, there have been more escalating pensions. and now, as an agreement, we've actually gotten many of the babies and laid down their weapons ever did this . tom and azerbaijan is the thing that they can, the free to leave the free to me or say, whatever they decide to do with the one. these cars come from colorado, they go to this check point and further down that road beyond that bridge is armenian territory. where they are crossing into, we've heard from armenian need,
12:17 pm
is that they are going to be welcome into armenia, but it is an uncertain future that people have been telling us as this particular to the point that they are going into. this was their home. this is where they lead most of their life, and this is why their side that they have to leave it all behind. so i'm up in today that for us at the luncheon photo crossing in azerbaijan. up front is withdrawing as in bossa 2. and is that um ending old defense cooperation of 2 weeks of tension with the ministry june to the president and manuel my cross says the withdrawal will be completed by the end of the year. the military which sees power in july has welcome to move cooling at a step to ed sovereignty. nicholas hawk reports from somebody else, capital deka friends will no longer be held hostage by purchase. those other words from the french president emmanuel mccall, who has recalled it's french ambassador and also the 1500 troops on the
12:18 pm
ground. they will leave the country by the end of the year. he has announced this comes after weeks of protest in the capital of new share. in the m, a west, thousands of people have called on the french to get out. this is seen as a small victory for the gentle leader in the country took over in a cool and late july general johnny. but this is a blow to france who relies on this uranium rich country to power it's nuclear power plants at home. it's also below and its efforts to control migration from i forgot to europe. new share is a transit point for migrants who travel through new share onto the mediterranean to make it to europe. meanwhile, there are the americans that are still on the ground. they do not call it a crew,
12:19 pm
but a crisis. they continue to cooperate with new jersey military and the deposed president mohammed buzzing while he's still being held by the military gentle nicholas hawk alger 0. the car to alter right wing is really nice less have made an incursion into the alexa compound and occupied east jerusalem. a carried out provocative tours in the courtyards. the mosque on in front of the time of rock to mock a jewish holiday and were protected by israeli soldiers who were deployed in large numbers as early forces setup military check points in the old city and stopped palestinians from entering the most. it's still ahead on the out. is there a why? the southern us for the city of beagle passed has declared the state of emergency. and hollywood royce has reached a tentative agreement with big studios and a month strong strikes that still new to the
12:20 pm
address of the case to vietnam. you might get an idea of a swell of clarity. it's an attempt to development of a tropical psych, a we think it will probably come to fruition. but even before that happens, it strikes huge amounts of riley to vietnam, which is not stretching trust to what it's effectively dr. written positive central target. and so this is a wet season, this time of year, as the rain stopped to come science. and it still means that in the easiest luxury, a dry picture that extends down through australia as well. the give them the spring is coming here. it should be really nice weather and it is for the nice spot. one of the 2 showers or funds don't show up, but they really quite small in nature. sidney's back down to 23 degrees and there are 5 few from bull showers showing up. and you said for us, it was the case say a week ago when it was effective, the heat wave pass bit wilmont 26 and in the sunshine. but there's a bit of
12:21 pm
a change if you go a bit further, south continues even where the warnings are for likely funding this circulation, which has been basically focusing on normal fall. and this is what it looks like on tuesdays we're stretching down into was the north side for all the west. snow is a possibility. weddington has got a full cost of blue average temperatures until the wind direction changes on thursday. with that cold, quite windy and very wet as you've see the critical debate. instead of trying to external life and management of this positive teaching is here to meet the to other countries to europe in member state should be trying to take control of this issue themselves. inside story on al jazeera, the
12:22 pm
the, [000:00:00;00] the welcome back. you're watching out as a reminder of our top story is this out. even rice watch accuse is b, u. s. a failing to compensate to rocky through a torch and by american forces. many survivors of the infamous abu ghraib prison continue to suffer long time effects, physical inspection. i mean, it says it's making provisions for tens of thousands of people who may flee. nicole in a kind of back up to the latest c spy or in a 1000,

a problem. the water head gets deeper into children recently drowned. here the family is frightened. they turn around back at the island. the toddler plays as the father considers his options. the arrival of more migrants emboldens him. there may be safety in numbers, more hands to catch small ones. if they're swept away and altogether, they cross wife with children. through this i ask for their futures. the answer, this is the scene on repeat in ego passed texas the town experiencing a surge of unauthorized border crossings numbering up to the thousands daily. the us border patrol boats because the water mostly observing the crossings only intervening when someone's life may be at risk. this family has a disabled child who is struggling, a border patrol boat takes them to safety. everyone else confront the next barrier
12:25 pm
layers and layers of razor wire put here by the state of texas. washington has sued the state to remove the sensing due to humanitarian concerns. the border patrol is actually cutting through this wire because as, as you see there are asylum seekers, families there who are baking underneath the sun and trying desperately begging to be allowed the rest of the way up there are ready standing on us soil. they have a legitimate right to claim asylum here in this country. defense is meant to be a deterrent to force beside one seekers to turn around even now. but they don't. these men say they're from venezuela, fleeing political violence, and economy in shambles. the info guy size or the guy that we are so tired, but our goal was to reach the united states because this is the land of opportunity . what's behind them can only be worse than what they're facing. and what they're facing is, you know, 5 rows of concerts here, wire piled higher than their heads. and you know,
12:26 pm

12:27 pm
perhaps to go. jason's knowledge shopping spree are some of the details are felt bring out. we're hearing that, you know, a certain aspects of ai, artificial intelligence remain a sticking point that was not quite agree to. they got some additional compensation called residuals. these are royalties, they're paid to writers and also are paid to act as directors. they wanted additional compensation for successful shows on streaming. uh, they apparently got some additional compensation now, whether that formula will be good enough for the actors when, when the negotiations pivot to them. that's another question and we don't know. we just don't know the details yet. let alone, how that'll, that'll land with them. so they, they got some increase in compensation. the actors, one is significantly higher, increased then the writers were getting. so we're not of the woods yet. but it does seem like at least one down language won't be available. and the, in the details for, you know,
12:28 pm
a number of days and we didn't get any progress until the ceo is the chief executive officers of the 4 largest entertainment companies. actually build up their sleeves, appeared in person, appeared in the room and negotiated directly. that was no surprise, they should have done it a 150 days ago. and we wouldn't have had the stripe or either the strikes. probably the awesome tina is grappling with its highest installation rates. in nearly 3 decades. the westland economy is pushed millions of diplomacy, including many office, and now struggling to make a living, to raise it by reports from the capitals of. when is aries? there's probably a lot of going comes to this last name, little side is to perform every sunday. the countries diary, when all, many crises has made it difficult for the we known 77 year old act or to find work elsewhere. we have never been like this. it is what generates sadness on how the country has impoverished us, or medical expansion is around a $100.00
12:29 pm
a month. and he relies on it to make a living. but i guarantee they struggling with a very high inflation. in august the rate was more than 12 percent gray. this is a rich country, a country that can feed millions of people and still we have millions who go hungry . how could you explain that enough? oh yeah, no, no urgency as economy is i going, i think this is the place so currency and it's worth 50 percent less than it was 6 months ago. prices are storing, the government has increased pensions and cash handout. but for most people in this country, it is not enough. argentina has a prominent film and theatre industry recently is a member of the argentine act was labor union. he says that industry has not been able to recover since they've been damaged. yes, that would or no, we haven't been able to go back to the level of production we had before. and so
