while her doses are still in bed. prepares bread for the day but her mind is far away stuck in a time when she and her children were captives of the i asked how the slaves write and sold like cattle. three if the children a still missing. are the timber that their work is not one i can think of anything else about what i'm just not known and i had a movement that. i'm not and i went to the doctor but they said it didn't matter what medicine i took it wouldn't help because i just think too much high up on a backyard. she no longer knows how many people hurt them they were held for the last five months in a cellar her daughter was six then she was eight. and

that they didn't give us anything. they were evil they kept on helping themselves to the girls you know when we didn't. there's a kind of kindergarten in the mounts and jack kemp. and her sister spend a couple of hours a day here. it's a chance to play and for a little while to figure out. the i asked man kept taking the children to make them in desperation she touched their names on their arms using the nails and i think. i. know where i could run navajo i doubt that's why they wouldn't forget their name so i did not get one i wanted to children away from me the i have so given. them a leader said if i see a name on a nom i'll cut off so i stopped. look here.

that i only did half a name. five years what you're going to have that thing what. she still doesn't know where her fifteen year old daughter and her two oldest sons are she doesn't even know if there were life. routine helps to distract. an aid organization gave the family twenty sheep money from selling the milk supports them. but even here on the mountain they're afraid that the i.r.s. might return coach's husband mahmoud keeps a gun if they come back he says they won't get his family again because it was. hard to. learn from the past we trusted our neighbors. said they were off friends children can even more. visit to their old home.

through down the mountain is littered with the things people left on their way on because they fled in panic from the i.r.s. four years ago. it was here the coaches family was cool. to get to their village we pass through a shingle the capital it lies in ruins. i don't care about the destroyed buildings. what awful is that they gave six seven or eight year olds to ten or twelve men. and that an eye is fighting and there's a ten year old girl pregnant that's the worst thing that you think. the home village run to see is deserted. the house in which they invested all their savings wrecked looted. knows they don't want to go on. they

say that muslim neighbors help the ins there's no way whatever returned show i would have. many muslims still live in the next village over the road we will never be able to live with muslims again after what happened. back on the mountain protests for the night. they've been here for two years the holy mount st joe is best safe haven but they don't want to stay there what they have got by that. children come back will leave iraq will go somewhere else as not only had went down with iraq that we suffered too much here what a lot as a doubter what. they supply tonight's program which would enable them to go to australia. but the hope of seeing them missing children again keeps them on the mountain. rescue teams in

thailand have begun teaching a young soccer team trapped in a flooded cave how to die of the twelve children and their coach have been stranded for eleven days but if floodwaters rise they could be stranded for months or they could drill and we understand that most of the boys cannot swim. weak but in good spirits the boys receive medical treatment and food after more than a week underground they are now being cared for by the tiny v.c. of the video footage has reassured their loved ones officials are working to install a cable so that parents can talk to their children it is not yet clear how or when the teen will be brought to the surface after their harrowing ordeal authorities aren't taking any risks. we need to be one hundred percent confident

in order to get the boys out. and it does not have to happen all at once. it depends on the circumstances. but they don't have to come out of the same time because they're all in a different condition. we are sensing the situation now and if there is any risk we will not move them out. of. the rescue operation with little room for error medics and soldiers rehearse bringing the boys and their coach to safety . with the rainy season just beginning the group has enough supplies to survive for months and as officials debate how to free the team the governor has promised they will care for the boys as if they were their own. let's have a look at the options facing the rescuers now this so i'll give you an idea of the tunnel layout the boys are trapped here which is about four kilometers

from the cave entrance now as you can see this is completely cut off by flood water one option would be to wait until the water recedes so that they can you know walk out leave on foot but monsoon season is setting in bringing even more rain so that . take months teaching the boys to dive is the fastest in the most realistic option but arguably the most dangerous it's not clear if any of the boys can swim let alone dive the british cave rescue council is advising this rescue effort their assistance chairman jerry mitchell described the risks and they tend to. doubt that any will say is this really quite serious undertaking. and we believe that. potentially coming up with sort of one or two plans. they take them out by the mountain stages and

a separate gets along the way the total length of it at sea is in the region of a kilometer long so it's a six shooter and to take. a really experienced by let alone. it's right young boys who were also very scared or risky was are also scarring the mountainside for a place where they might drill into the chamber to lift the boys simply al creating a shaft large enough to do this would be extremely complicated a and experts say it would take a long time in the meantime authorities are pumping floodwater out of the cave to limit the damage of further rainfall that's a significant factor weighing on rescuers minds right now the risk that the caves could become completely flood here's some of the other stories now that are making headlines around the world. thousands of taking to the streets in poland's capital more soul to challenge

a law that lowers the retirement age for supreme court judges the sixty five year old chief justice showed up for work today valen to continue her mandated term critics say that the new law gives the ruling wall and just as party vast political control over the courts the government calls it reform. in southwest england counterterrorism police are now investigating an unknown substance that made two people critically ill the incident occurred just a few kilometers from where a former russian spy and his daughter were poisoned with a nerve agent back in march samples of the substance have been sent to a defense research laboratory for testing. a woman from to these moderate islamic party has become the first female elected mayor of the country's capital tunis and the pharmacist suan abderrahim one in the second round of voting in the city council she described her victory as a point of pride and a win for tunisian women. well scuffles have broken out in the west

bank between israeli authorities and protesters trying to halt the demolition of a better when village police arrested a love them for adjusters as they trying to block bulldozers in khan out to the east of jerusalem and israeli court approved plans to tear down the homes in a move that protesters believe will clear the way for new israeli settlements there are about one hundred eighty palestinian bedouin villages live or villagers living in khan ma now they mostly raise sheep and goat living in tin and wooden shacks w.'s tanya kramer has this report from the village. the small bedouin village of qana is threatened with demolition. this is eat. and goats in the occupied west bank

a few kilometers outside jerusalem for years he's fought in court against the demolition orders issued by the israeli military but in may the israeli supreme court gave the go ahead for the village to be raised it was the final appeal. here . people here are very worried and afraid. that they were hoping that the international community would help them but after everything that happened they became frustrated and desperate just. about one hundred eighty people that's thirty five families live in the village which israel says was built illegally but for palestinians the required building permits are almost impossible to obtain in the israeli controlled areas see in the west bank in this decision and it's written and signed by three judges that the only argument the court will deal with is a question if the buildings here and the school building permits and as we all know

they did not have been permits because the state was never giving building permits in areas state the bedouins so this is a way to push it out of here but israel has meanwhile approved more housing units in nearby jewish settlements human rights groups say that moving the bedouin population against their will amounts to forcible transfer contrary to international law. could totally reject the allegation that this is a transfer of people in the occupied territory. the fact that the territory is disputed that the status of these territories no clue does not mean that people are allowed to settle with ever they want in a legal way. the school financed with european funds will also be demolished during the summer it's open for children to play it's the only nearby school for most of them especially the girls of the bedouin communities scattered around the area. the residents will be relocated to a different site most villagers have already said they won't accept being forcibly

resettled to a new location. or here in berlin germany france are on the americal defended her new migration policy today before parliament her address came after she reached a compromise with her hardline interior minister earlier this week aimed at limiting illegal immigration she says that the fate of europe could be determined by the way it deals with the issue of migration. angle america looked and her interior minister hosty hoffa may have survived a week's long governmental crisis but that certainly doesn't mean they can just go back to normal they're too conservative sister parties agree to be transferred centers at the german austrian border asylum seekers are already registered in at the e.u. countries but initially be housed and have their status checked there and possibly be deported in an interview with the german t.v. broadcaster on wednesday merkel said that asylum seekers would only stay there for

a limited amount of time. then. according to german law a person's freedom may only be limited to forty eight hours of footage that millions within this time by the end of the following day the person has to be returned to another country. and that's on the land. with this limitation merkel wants to win over just social democrats the third partner in a crown coalition they still have objections even some are clueless trying to sell her deal with the serious us a success and she says the real problem is not protecting the borders of the individual countries but those of the e.u. and that's a very good meld the up the first thing that if we always talk about border protection i understand why people ask if we just want to cut ourselves off it's just one element but an important one or freedom of movement can only be guaranteed

by protecting the e.u. six join our borders but we have to reach agreements with non e.u. member countries the chancellor still has plenty of work to do the first step is to convince the center left social democrats to go along with her deal they're set to continue their chalks on thursday. business now america's trade dispute with its trading partners is getting as i said right here that's what we don't know how this is going. too and but a fresh round of import tariffs are going into effect between china and the u.s. on friday experts say we can then really talk about a full blown trade war well one side punishes the other the consequences could chip away at both economies as we know and at the paychecks of consumers people in china are preparing to pay more for some of their favorite american products. car enthusiasts in beijing regularly meet up to take their jeeps for a spin the vehicles were imported from the united states. paid to france seventy

five thousand u.s. dollars for his that's around thirty thousand dollars more than it would cost in the u.s. but the price tag could rise further when the next set of u.s. tariffs comes into effect. for. the ten chilled buyers made change their minds due to the price hike. this restaurant in beijing will also feel the effect of fresh tariffs it serves pork ribs imported from the us there especially popular among americans living in the chinese capital. manager charles a pilot fears that higher prices could drive customers away of course he could start buying ports from chinese farmers but for now that appears to be at odds with the question domestic calls it just doesn't taste. really the simple fact is that

simple but. as fears of a full out trade for growth china's foreign ministry striking a defiant tone. china has a regulated preparations. as long as the united states issues a so-called tyra flipped china will take necessary measures to firmly protect its legitimate interests. of. those who already own jeeps in china will probably be doing their best to keep their vehicles in top shape to spare parts will also be taxed higher from friday. well sort of related note u.s. president donald trump says his government is encouraging motorcycle companies to move to the united states that's after he slammed harley davidson for this. siding to move son assembly from the european market from the u.s. to factories in india and brazil it blamed the decision on tariffs imposed by the

european union to retaliate for tariffs trump imposed on a host of new products of course some of the other big companies trump is referring to include those from europe and asia the likes of john onda b.m.w. and look at the regions the president is looking to penalize in or going trade tensions. they're hopeful attentions are notorious for saving disappointing announcement for busy news days well the world cup is a perfect event for that during the event the russian government said it's pushing up the official retirement age world cup or not the reform is facing resistance dark zora each reports. it's been a long day and olga played minge of a needs a cup of tea after thirty years of working as a hospital doctor she was planning to retire next spring and just a bit on the side but now the fifty four year old fears there's little chance of that the russian government wants to gradually raise the age of retirement from sixty to sixty five for men from fifty five to sixty three for women. russia has

an aging population and too few people paying into its pension pot the retirement system needs an overhaul. the government wants to modernize the country but needs to invest more in health and education as communication choices can seem a little in that doctor to announce the retirement reform at the start of the world cup hoping perhaps that the football tournament would distract people from its intentions that these two will be. the kremlin has otherwise kept quiet on the issue president putin appears keen to distance himself from the reform. roger we have a few but trade unions and opposition politicians believe he's the one behind it all you know they've organized demonstrations and collected millions of signatures in protest of the us more. putin of all did the pension reform as

a way of stealing our money for much zelig new design called reform is making citizens poorer with we will do everything to prevent these measures from being implemented on the most which is the. parliament has to give its approval before the reform can go ahead and not all members are in favor independent analysts also skeptical. yes. reform speaking as an economist such reforms are only necessary when you have strong economic growth youth or not enough workers. neither of which is the key. base russia's economy is sluggish and the country has a huge workforce and few businesses actively hi older people so we'll all go plant minge of the end up having to work a few more years. just because of everything my generation has seen but i really don't hold out much hope for good news.

and if the reform is implemented it'll hopley bolster people's trust in the russian government. or and we stay in russia but we switch subjects and of course we're going to talk about the world cup quarter finals are just around the corner there in russia and fans have been seeing some surprising results companies are taking note too especially the teams outfitters for them the tournament is the biggest marketing event of the year and let's take a look at how that tournaments is actually unfolding because it's quite interesting german sports giant adidas went in with twelve teams at the beginning while u.s. competitor nike had contracts with ten squats you balance at two and at four but of course now the tournament as it evolved and the field has narrowed with eight teams in the quarter finals among the corporate sponsors nike has now taken the lead with brazil england france and croatia adidas has lost some favorites like

germany spain in argentina and now banking on belgium and sweden among others while euro why is rounding up the field wearing for sports outfitters the success of their teams is massively important translating into billions of dollars in revenue mostly through sales of jerseys and that's all for business we'll see how that world cup at least until spring what we're wearing at the end of the world cup so the obvious thank you very much in tuesday's world cup action england beat colombia the last sixteen clash turned out to be a nail biting affair that went to penalties leaving even the most optimistic england fans were the three lions have one of the worst records when it comes to spot kicks but they overcame their past and they won. harry came penalty after fifty seven minutes put england in the lead against an ultra defensive colombia's side without the services of their injured star high miss rodrigues. in injury time england keeper jordan pickford had to produce his best

save but was powerless on the ensuing corner when yeti mean up pounded the ball into the net for the last ditch colombia equaliser i mean is third goal at this world cup sent the match into extra time when england was only two minutes away from advancing to the quarterfinals. after a goalless extra time england had to go through the dreaded penalty shootout jordan pickford saved carlos bok as attempt and then up stepped eric dyer and finally england not only won a penalty shoot out but made it through to the quarterfinals too. so it's good news scientists hoping to save the northern white rhino from extinction have created y. new imbroglios using in vitro fertilization you may remember that the very last northern white rhino male on the planet his name was sudan where he died back in march but before he and three other bulls dog scientists managed to collect

a bit of semen from each researchers hope that eventually using the last two living northern white females that they can usher in the birth of a calf in the next three year. are here's a reminder the top story that we're following for you tight authorities have released a new plan of the schoolboy's new video of their traps in a flooded cave in thailand they appeared to be in good condition but rescuers say these two boat know how or when they will be able to bring the group said. after a break i'll be back to take you through the day stick around for that.
