made it through rapid support. forrest of sexual abuse and sexual violence is still ongoing. many people, sophia, to report it, and many people still think that they will not get accountability. and that is why they'd not 20 reports in addition to the shame and sigma. so women who are trapped in this conflict say that they want to leave the conflict zones, but as long as the active fighting ongoing, they don't know how to make their way out. and many are worried that they would eventually end up victims or survivors of sexual violence. i haven't morgan reporting from cartoon. they're here, but thank you so much for that reporting. we're going to stay with this and see what more we can find out where the alphabet address was. joining us live now from audrey in chad. that means you're just near the sidney's border. ahmed, hundreds of thousands of cities have fled to where you are. since the beginning of the conflict, they are perhaps free or to tell their story is now that they're out of sedan. what are they telling you? well, it's
12:07 pm
a great to be honest with you. i can see. so down from why we're spending right here. but you see that for especially the white stuff will have seen this conflict for more than print to us. we're talking about cases multiply. and some of those victims have not been have been repeatedly assaulted sexually or the pos printer years. in particular, we spoke to a lady voice voice coventry mattered. last year she was waived just before her wedding. and 4 months ago, she was in the same problem. she was raped by the initials in the duffel region after assaulting ha, killing. at least 6 members of our family and they repeatedly raped when we spoke with her, she said she couldn't able to bring herself to talk to nurse has been private about what happened to me when she went to the medical facilities. yeah, not drake. she could not get the necessary attention she wanted because doctors and health workers that feel that her case is not
12:08 pm
a serious case. they are dealing with life switching in a situation dangerous from gunshots, blasts, and cases up under attrition. children and young people live support. so cases of sexual fathers is never a priority for these people. as of now, let's just watch for them. based on been on no facility known enough counselors, no social worker, you know, social workers to deal with the fact that we are here at the holding company. we were talking about tens of thousands of people in this particular company with no health percentages except a fewest categories and old souls felt little supposedly just don't enough to deal with this problem. there was, uh, a volunteer health clinic that was the yeah. i just 2 months ago we, when we, when we reported for this particular no the campus or that but, but can you because pulled it up simply because they don't have the resources to continue the doctors for just place by the parking been janita on people telling us, but what you are reporting on is something that we have seen over and over and over
12:09 pm
again with the latest conflict in the past 4 months. now what they're saying is that they have at least hundreds, if not thousands of cases in this particular account that we all, and there are 3 different comes like this. i don't, i break. and then another prominent come away from here. what holding about 171000 people, and that to how do we experience when you talk to this people, they just gave them some of them because of the stigma run away from their families and go back into i trouble these engineers, which is constantly being attacked by malicious, a part of middle part of military forces. so what i'm at, thank you very much for that reporting. and it also speaks to the discrepancy between the official number only a 130 cases officially documented by the un. but so many voices, including your and hipaa is reporting suggesting that the real number actually a lot higher than that address reporting from audrey, thank you. a huge fire has engulfed the security director of building and the city
12:10 pm
of the smiley, northeastern egypt. the area is on the west bank of the sways canal. officials say the flames have now been contained, but the cause not yet known. the health industry is reporting at least 38 people have been injured. local media or reporting nearby hospitals have been put on alert . it's merely as one of the cities that overlooks egypt sways canal, a vital waterway between asia and europe, that sees about 10 percent of the world's maritime trade. and al 0 has gained exclusive access to the largest city of the car, back region after it was recaptured. by us or by john, from ethnic armenians. and this is what our team witnessed in hum. kennedy in the main square, they are empty streets, deserted homes, and shuddered businesses more than a 100000 people living in the region have fled to neighboring armenia. only a small fraction have remained. that is despite also by john's assurances that they
12:11 pm
will be integrated as equal citizens officer as a some, a bunch of aid has this exclusive report from kennedy. as you've been seen, pictures from home can be in the last few days, tens of thousands of people who lined up the square with all that was they could carry with them. people who were in the cars were chewing up to leave outside and, and leave the city. but the people who were here or waiting for buses for their relatives, for others to come and take them with them as they did not believe the assurances that were given by the other, by johnny government, that they would not be a prosecute at here in the town center. if i go quiet, you'd be able to hear nothing. there is absolutely no one who's left here. apart from a few elderly disabled and others, we did see some red cross workers who are here earlier, who are taking people, ferrying them away and taking them to a staging point. from there,
12:12 pm
they're going to take them into armine, and that's what people want here. let me just show you. here are some puppies, who've been following this around, possibly looking for food. so this is, this is a hard to describe feeling on when you enter a town where you've been looking at pictures of it, where there was so much activity. but now a goes down, which seems to have no soul left is between a driving through this town. we've looked at the open shut his we've left it and they've got the cause of their doors are open up. so it does feel like this was an exit, so it feels like we have people thoughts that they are, they have to leave as quick as they can. although we were hearing when we were outside of fund, can be from other badge on the officials that they, they're free to stay they, they have nothing to fear. but you have to understand the history of the last 3 decades. is that because they've been so much hatred, so much violence?
12:13 pm
there's been so much of that has gone on between these 2 sides that it was difficult or peoples this. imagine what piece between the 2 sides would look like 30 years ago when i mean, and forces came in, they renamed all of these areas with armenian names. this used to be known as content. the other places, like who would you lay and color the jar? we're also named with other birds, any names, but be able to change once, i mean in forces to control of these areas and is self declared state came into place. but now as a bridge, i need to have come into the administrative, administrative control. we've also been seeing ambulance is to give, make sure that there is some, a, some sort of relief for people to be met. the i c r c. awesome. and they said that it is going to help them to ensure that the people who are left behind have some essential services available. the electricity, as you can see, the lights are still running, the water is still running. i'll do
12:14 pm
a book has tell us that they can be sure of the who are. who are the people used to run the water supply are no longer here and behind this is now the vehicle is left is where the russian peacekeepers were station. because this was, it was a staging point where people who are gathering and leaving. but this is what a city without people looks like it is, seems that we have never seen before, but such a huge mazda of population got up and left, leaving all that they could leave behind with them. and just taking their memories and all they could pack on their cars, but the as a some events evade reporting there from the camera back region where a un mission arrived on sunday is the 1st time that you enriches the region. in 3 decades, the team will assess the humanitarian need in an area that has been almost entirely emptied of its population. still ahead on alpha 0, turkey a carries out there strikes on suspected kurdish revel targets in northern iraq
