medicine are in short supply at least they're safe here unlike the people still back home in the russell i'm which is being seized by turkish troops. friends and relatives have posted horrific videos they say were shot there where this is. was i saw one of those of they have been bombing the town nonstop they enter houses place explosives and blow them up and still everything my father will be with are now going to be. tens of thousands have fled away from the border and deeper into kurdish controlled territory in syria a sockeye 75 kilometers from russell on and has so far not been attacked by turkish forces. the sudden arrival of refugees is posing a challenge to the local authorities. and all the school buildings are already

full. we don't have the infrastructure to look after so many people our resources very limited. the hospital is treating wounded kurdish fighters turkey says the kurdish y p g is a terrorist force because of its alleged links to kurdish separatists within turkey the mother of one of the wounded rejects such claims that in what we are kurds we're not terrorists we haven't attacked or harmed anyone it's added one who is attacking us. in her soccer the mood remains defiant with daily protests for the kurdish cause and against the turkish offensive. for more on this i'm joined from istanbul by day to raise daryn jones daryn there's been much criticism of this offensive also from arab states the kurds are now saying they simply can't and won't prioritize guarding i-s. militant detainees in the face of this incursion incursion excuse me what does that mean for security in the region. was going to be

a major problem given the fact that this syrian kurdish militia regarding around 12000 islamic state members in a number of camps in this region and also on top of that there are tens of thousands of sympathizers and family members are also being detained so it's a very large group and it requires a lot of resources from the syrian kurdish militia to protect them and they're saying now that given the fact that this is the whole area is increasingly becoming a war zone they need to the photos were sources to fighting the turkish forces but there will also be a problem for the militias kodesh militia they will realize if these. hardy's do escape they could well open up a 2nd front against these kurdish forces so it is a major dilemma but the fact that these forces could be released is a big concern internationally given the fact there's over 2000 foreign jihad is being held in these camps as well and pressure on turkey will also be growing given the fact now we're getting videos released purportedly showing militias linked to these turkish incursion arab militias executing kurdish prisoners and also we're

getting reports in a monitoring group that civilians to have being executed by these arab militias this is tonight among those that are being reported killed is a prominent local kurdish official a woman activist who was killed along with her driver last night as we've been reporting some allies have begun to stop weapons sales to tech event undeterred prior to the embargo turkey's foreign minister. spoke to me and had this to say. this is a vital matter for us if you it's a question of national security of survival whatever they do whether it's an arms embargo or something else it's only strengthens us daryn some determined words there but those comments came prior to. has there been any reaction from ankara since then. well anchor right from the very beginning has expected

there would be pressure but they dismissed this they said that this is about the future security of this country and nothing will stand in this way the president. one has to dismiss these criticisms and turkey does believe it is in a strong position this threat of arms embargoes will have a limited effect because turkey has a very developed military defense industry of its own it has been preparing ahead of this operation so such frets willy will not have much effect on criticism making what can do though will be the threat of economic and financial sanctions coming from the united states there is big concern because it could impact in a major way on the turkish economy as well as the political side of the humanitarian side kurds are fleeing the area where are they going and who's helping them. well that's a big question no one really knows where they are going or i don't think they know where they can go because they don't really know where is a safe area this whole operation is covering several 100 kilometers of syria up to 30 kilometers deep and this is where most of the urban areas are in this region

beyond that is just desert and that really is the only place they feel that possibly they can be safe the problem is that aid agencies to say this area will be incredibly difficult to provide supplies and support so the fear is that there is a major humanitarian crisis looming given the fact that has half a 1000000 people at risk. in istanbul for us thank you very much. now to some of the other stories making news around the world ecuador's army has taken to the streets to enforce the country's 1st 24 hour curfew in decades president lyndon moran ordered the curfew after protesters ransacked and set fire to a government building over its austerity measures he said his government would address some of the demonstrators concerns. mexican military police have stopped a caravan of some 2000 migrants trying to reach the united states most were detained and then bussed back bussed back to the city of tapachula amala from where they had set out on saturday morning. wildfires have forced 100000 people
