future. talks face off in copenhagen danish protesters take to the streets to show their opposition to a new law banning muslim face veil and i begged them their children here now but they just started attacking us even mean viciously my husband was lying dead in front of me after that i lost consciousness we have an exclusive report on a series of attacks by far right gangs on the roma community in ukraine what is fueling the violence. i'm sumi so much going to thank you for joining us zimbabwe's president emerson when god was called for dialogue with the opposition to try to defuse tensions following monday's elections his appeal comes a day after the military shot dead three on armed demonstrators at a protest in the capital harare when god said those responsible for the violence should be identified. and brought to justice. i.

soldiers firing live rounds and zimbabwe's capital. the army into the streets of harare mid afternoon reportedly at the request of the police. the country's justice minister said the military had been deployed to maintain peace and tranquility and accused opposition supporters of going on a rampage however the protesters claim they didn't start the violence. it was going on it was. just you know if this is a demonstration that. the crackdown came after a day of protest in the capital people were taken to the streets to protest a delay in the release of the results of presidential polling. crowds gathered outside the offices of the country's electoral commission to demand the release and things quickly turned violent the electoral commission called for patience

verifying the vote was more complicated than expected the commission chairwoman said the unusually high number of candidates was causing delays in the verification process. but a spokesman for the opposition said the situation was unacceptable and suggested that something unusual was going on it is everyone citizens right to demand that the results operate used in reasonable time ok the fact that the results far right essential that it's just next door to have not been released by upright by midday today is inappropriate and suggests that something wrong is opening we've been here before. as tensions remain high in the country the international community is becoming increasingly concerned with governments calling for restraint on all science. melanie color of the ball is following the latest developments for us from harare hi melanie good to see you now last night the government promised to continue the crackdown on protesters what are things been like on the streets this morning. the situation has calmed down considerably here

sumi after the outbreak of violence yesterday but the army is still very present the government has been saying that their police seventy thousand police officers have been employed throughout the election that they are going to starved and that the army needs to remain in place until there is no more indication of protest so basically we are in a silent state of emergency here melanie when are we expecting to get the results from the presidential vote. well constitutionally the last day to get those results is saturday that's the date when they have really have to tell us who the president is but the results could come in early and of course there has been pressure on the electoral commission to release the results today we are expecting them if they do give us the results today to do that more towards the evening though to avoid clashes and outbreaks of violence and demonstrations that

happened yesterday similarly we saw in a report the opposition says the parliamentary vote was stolen and that the same is going to happen to the presidential vote do they have any reason to doubt the validity of the selection. well i mean if you look at past elections they help all been rigged so of course looking at the history of this country this is always a possibility the m.d.c. is considerably concerned because there have been some irregularities throughout the election and they didn't have the funds to send their own polling agencies to some areas of the country and yes when it comes to the presidential vote that has been a delay they are now that the forms which have to come in from eleven thousand polling stations what the results. could be subject to fraud of course we can't confirm the claims yet but the fear is here. melanie credible source from harare melanie good to talk to you. now to some other stories making headlines around the world

authorities in the democratic republic of congo say four more people have tested positive for the bowl of virus in the country's northeast the outbreak in north kivu province close of ugandan border has already claimed twenty lives the cases come just days after another outbreak in the northwest of the d.r. see was declared over. twitter user as uploaded video of the aero mexico plane crash film from inside the aircraft the plane went down shortly after takeoff in northern mexico on tuesday miraculously all one hundred three crew and passengers survived many of them resumed work or their travels just a day after the accident. u.s. president donald trump has called on attorney general just sessions to end the high profile investigation into russian election meddling trump tweeted quote sessions should stop this rig witch hunt right now before it continues to stain our country any further sessions recuse himself from the investigation last year. and the

remains of what are thought to be fifty five u.s. servicemen killed in the korean war have arrived in the u.s. vice president mike pence attended the ceremony in hawaii he said president trump was grateful to north korean leader kim jong un for fulfilling a promise made at the two leaders summit in june. the u.s. has announced sanctions on two turkish officials over continued detention of an american pastor the white house says the sanctions target turkey's interior minister and justice minister because of the world the two men played in the arrest and detention of pastor andrew bronson bronson has been held by the turkish government for nearly two years turkey accuses him of aiding the failed coup attempt against president one in two thousand and sixteen brunson was transferred from jail to house arrest last week following health concerns the u.s. is demanding his immediate release. let's bring in our

correspondent dorian jones who is covering the story for us from istanbul hi dorian who is andrew bronson how did he become such a key figure in u.s. turkey relations. well andrew bronson is an evangelical christian for more than twenty years he's been living in turkey much of it working in a church in turkey's western city of mia now he was picked up after the failed coup attempt in twenty sixteen accused of being connected to people that blames being responsible for those who followers of the u.s. based cleric. and also accuse of supporting kurdish insurgents of the. group now washington has dismissed this they said these cases are trumped up charges as no basis for them in spite of protestations brunson have been hell for more nearly two years in jail much of it in solitary confinement washington believe he's a political hostage being used. to extract samantha now we understand in the last few weeks some sort of deal had been reached between the two presidents some

unexplained reason that deal broke down and has now triggered washington to sanction these two ministers and how will these sanctions affect the interior and justice ministers and how is turkey reacting. well the sanctions are largely symbolic they would target any financial or interest they have in the united states going to say they have no they say they're to we will ignore these sanctions because they don't affect them and largely that is the case but it's symbolic here that it is seen as the first shot in what could be a very deep war of sanctions by the u.s. against turkey has immediately shot back describing this as an aggressive stance by its so-called allies and has warned it will retaliate now the most of the main opposition parties with the exception of a pro party have rallied in support of the government they say this is an unjustified action you have to realize in turkey there is a very strong vein of anti-americanism which is on the rise because of current tensions on

a myriad of issues between the two countries but crucially so far the turkish president one has not reacted to this latest move by washington everyone will be watching for him to get an idea of which direction this crisis is going to go in. during just briefly if you can what do you think this is going to mean then for us turkish relations going forward. i think we're entering a really critical stage you have to realize these through our nato allies if washington further right to dissolve sanctions possibly talking turkish turkey's very fragile economy that could plunge relations into a. level. of pressure to stand forth it doesn't want to appear to be weak to the u.s. because it is a way of washington has a number of of them arms against on korea. correspondent dorian jones reporting for us from istanbul durian thank you lebanon is stepping up pressure on syrian refugees to return home some one point five million

syrian refugees are currently in lebanon and officials there have repeatedly said the country is under strain hundreds of refugees have returned to syria in the past few weeks but many more say they cannot go back to be a correspondent for a travel to the town of ourselves where she met a mother who fled syria the government killed her husband and son and she and her children fear for their lives if they return. it was not a voyage of the. undertaking but the mother of eight and grandmother of three children was forced to flee his syrian home. to take refuge in the town of ourselves just across the border. although it happened five years ago the memories are still fresh this is my son or husband and his son were killed in the syrian war. at the beginning of the uprising protests were not violent and they were peaceful but my husband was killed because he took part in the my son was with

the regime army doing his compulsory service and the syrian intelligence service killed him because he deserted other the. huda fears the assad regime but the pressure from lebanon to leave is building some three thousand syrians have already registered to return there that i can never go back to syria. she is especially worried about this man goes in by is a member of the syrian committee tasked with collecting the names of billing return is and sending the list to damascus for approval who is suspicious but the government me tally the names with those who protested against the regime and neither of us upon arrival or refuse them approval to return but go soon denies the charge. it's not

a condition not an issue of approval it's just about informing the government of the names of the people returning. he claims syria is now safe and to convince us he asked one of the refugees who reply to return to talk to us do you want to go back of course what's keeping me here but it doesn't go quite as he in the song which so he is confronted by angry syrians. back to syria safely is impossible. he shows his great scars the military did this while still a leader. but lebanon's government is eager to stop one off million syrian refugees so many say they may be forced to look at europe again. that is one of them. and her friends are among those thinking about making the journey do you know that it won't be easy but the risk of reprisal by assad security forces is high

enough that the. one of the ladies has just heard of the arrest of her sister by the syrian regime. i want to migrate to europe for the future of my children and i applied to the u.s. but they didn't help me other than. smugglers want one thousand euros for the trip and i was at the feeling isn't it meant that i feel. who that doesn't know what she would do yet and many here are facing a similar dilemma. it may be too soon to say if there will be a second wave of refugees to europe but the conditions are right. for now despite all the hardship best bet seems to be levanon if the lebanese. in denmark people have held protests against a ban on full face veils that came into force yesterday the so-called burqa or niqab ban prevents people from covering their faces in public denmark follows other

european countries which have introduced such a ban including france and belgium. as. their faces may be masked but their outrage is on display over a thousand protesters marched through copenhagen in defiance of denmark's new ban on facial coverings they say the lord infringes on freedoms of religion and expression and the right to dress as they choose i mean he said this is discriminating law it's of certain law it's a law that doesn't make sense and fractious and i really hate this law i think is so embarrassing and i cannot stand being a citizen in this so-called democracy with this kind of of the mosque protestors and those wearing burkas and new cabs can now be fined more than one hundred euros for more than a thousand euros for repeat offenses opponents say the real price will be paid by danish society we actually live it seeing our freedoms our liberal freedom rights

in a society to dress like we want to write what you want and so forth so so i think it's meaning a dangerous step to take the majority in the parliament has done with this no because what is what is coming next what is after this supporters of the law held their own demonstration they say the band upholds secular and democratic values and combat's fundamentalist islam. where you want to take a stand against the political islam is a fundamentalist in our society and we have some people who believe that their in their right to wear a headscarf would call this all of the face so we're not able to root to see their faces or she's not able to see their face on this we're going to see you stand against. and estimated two hundred muslim women in denmark where facial coverings some say they plan to carry on despite the bear and. i feel insecure and there now

that i'm going out the feeling facing people and noses in everything but in my believe in you from heart i feel calm through and i will be in the same as i was doing it's now up to danish police to decide if and when to enforce the ban. on. rightwing gangs have carried out a series of attacks on the roma community in ukraine they've injured several people and killed one man twenty four year old david pop stabbing him to death in front of his children did his necke only travel to the country's west to speak to perhaps widow and to other victims of the violence. this is how it all began in april twenty eighth. attacked a room account in the ukrainian capital kiev a copycat attack soon followed across the country in late june twenty three year
