8:03 pm
others were buried. but there are no tombstones, no names of their stories, only to be told by the graveyards keeper, who can only say for sure that they were not from the town and were likely involved in opposition protests at the start of the uprising them on a new of them the regime buried around 100 people here. they buried them in batches . i prayed over their bodies, they were innocent civilians, and so they were our syrian brothers. could tie felt was over shame, stronghold it's outskirts. we're a close military zone that residents were not allowed to access. for years, families waited for news about their loved ones who disappeared in regime prisons, arbitrary and unlawful arrests were part of the regime strategy to silence descent . now syrians need to find those who are still missing, right? scoop, say there are at least 100000 accounted,
8:04 pm
400 the gun example. the refrigerator had trucks used to come at least twice a week. they used to use employees of government institutions and think as to the graves. no one of us could say with at the time, answers mainly beneath the ground. people here are calling for experts to start digging. mass graves have already been on earth and other regime controlled areas. evidence of a long suspected pattern of organized states, violence center for their own shows, the good type of damascus countryside. a serious prime minister. how about the bus you'd has told al jazeera, the country is running very low on foreign currency reserves? 13 years a for chris, hold serious economy. but she'd also blame systemic corruption within the government. the prime minister is calling on the international community to help retrieve some of that money, or at least a set of thoughtless charges. i said it wasn't just the shuttle. i said there was a whole system of plundering the results of the wealth of the syrian people,
8:05 pm
but that money should have been used to fund the reconstruction of syria. and we should seek help to this from the international community. because that money is the money of the syrian people much so okay, we'll go straight to the syrian capital, damascus, where it's on a been job a the standing by for us. so how, with their prime minister's comments receipts where you were wondering if you heard the prime minister. this is something that you would usually here after elections that the government takes over the name of the previous government. but here, this is a fighting force come to converting itself into a governing body. and these statements would provide some sort of understanding because this government is, this administration is asking people to show them patients to be do better with them because it has come up to 13 years of struggle. and they took over a regime with, with in charge for over half a century. my mother's issues, comments come as sources have said that there's just about $200000000.00 in the city as cough is. and that is not going to be, you know,
8:06 pm
so people are beginning to wonder if you're a government employee. if you're a teacher, if your doctor, if you're at 70 look, if you come out in the streets and do your job, are you going to be paid at the end of the month? what is that going to look like? are you still going to be paid exactly the same in the previous government, or will that be increased or decreased? and this is why he needs to come out and show his people that there isn't much that this government has to work with the previous government to do with it, whatever it had. although the debris shop, the dublin said already it stated that they were of buying food and supplies and sustaining the war against the opposition. but now it seems that after the fall of the regime, the call for it is empty. and this is more of an appeal, not just to the people of this country, but to the outside world defense. so if you have allies, you've been saying that they want to support this government, but now to prove that have to prove themselves it also the other states which are
8:07 pm
holding some of the students funds will after now release that. so this is why it is going to be crucial for this intention based statements that you'll be hearing to put them into action to actually provide relief for the people in syria. they're going to need money and according to the prime minister, they don't have it. okay, a, some of in job aid reporting from damascus in syria. thank to the you ends on voice with syria has warned that the conflict in the country is far from over addressing the security council from damascus gear. petterson said he was concerned about reports of military escalation in the north pointers, a classes between turkish backed and curtis groups. demo beast, as well as some neighborhoods of a level city remains under the control of the stem supported by the us. there have been significant impulse still. it is in the last 2 weeks before a ceasefire, most broke good between turkey in and united states
8:08 pm

8:09 pm
prospect of an orderly political translation. turkey is foreign minister is denying claims. it has taken over syria earlier than us presidents elect, donald trump said, and corrupt was behind the collapse of the said government. speaking exclusively to alpha 0. how country don told sammy's they done the us backing of syria and curtis groups amounts to quote, support of terrorism. the us president says to kia has conducted and what he called an unfriendly takeover of syria. something he says took you has wanted for thousands of years. how do you respond to that? that took it, conduct an unfriendly takeover of sodium. while i think, 1st of all, let me say this, we will then call it a tit quoted because it will be a great mistake to present what's been happening in syria for seating people is not to take over. i think if there is any k quote,
8:10 pm
it is the real of the proceeding people which is taking over now. do you, do you consider in that scenario for example, that the us is backing a total group by supporting the y p g? yes. and, and we've told, told this openly many times, and if that policy doesn't change, does that put you on a collision course with the united states, especially with the new administration that's coming into pal? well, this is exactly what we've been trying to avoid for some years. so you can watch somebody that does full interview with the turkish foreign minister. how kind of be done on talk to alger 0 tomorrow, wednesday, december 18th, a 2030 g m t. the israel is quote, closer than ever to closing

8:12 pm
small details that will determine when a cease fire agreement is reached. but certainly there is optimism, there's also some fear the families of these really captives want a comprehensive deal. one deal that would see the release of all captives at once. they were afraid of these a phased approach that nothing yahoo is talking about so far. what we understand is that there is a 3 phase ceasefire that is being talked about. the 1st one will be just that the redeployment of is really troops the release of some captives and the entry of humanitarian assistance. in addition to the release of course of palestinian detainees, but the details of where do the troops are you deployed to? how does that all happen? these are the details that are being ironed out, pushed quite strongly by the mediators and by the incoming and outgoing american
8:13 pm
