and launching the fight against malaria scientists help farmers on the island of zanzibar come up with a new way of combating the spread of the disease. i could join yeah your welcome to the program the u.n. peacekeeping mission in the democratic republic of congo is coming under growing pressure people in the east of the country see the u.n. is failing to protect them from attacks by militias violence is on the rise especially in the east where our groups are fighting over resources on wednesday 3 will work as well so killed by an armed group more on that in a moment but 1st here's how i guess the u.n. is exploding in the town of benny. protesters heading to a u.n.
12:18 am
camp to vent their anger at the people of bay need in eastern democratic republic of congo live on the front line of militia violence they feel let down by their nation's own armed forces and by the un for not stopping the deadly militia attacks that have claimed dozens of lives in the past few months alone before the un have done nothing for us here. protesters attacked the u.n. compound and set fire to baby town hall to show that they've had enough but the u.n. is pushing back it condemned the violent protests and says it is being made a scapegoat for issues beyond its control. well relations sometimes feel that the u.n. has the capacity and the resources more than the government forces and they can and they're not doing enough so it's also because people expect you to do all or even if you cannot do more they think you are not doing enough but the reality is that
12:19 am
a peacekeeping mission is not deployed in a country to ration war but that is an argument protesters and dany don't accept they say if the un's mission is to protect civilians it's peacekeepers shouldn't be standing on the sidelines as massacres unfold they see the u.n. must go. a little better but we are only here to see if the un has left and if they have really been affected by what was done yesterday and if they haven't then we will do it again and especially the young people are talking billard the u.n. base in my we know about on the job the questions are now also being asked at a higher level about the future of the un mission this initiative going to progress also the mall gets legitimate for people to wonder why this peacekeeping force persists in the g r c. we've had good successes but now it's time to sit down and talk honestly about what could be done better of what can't be done. because
12:20 am
the un can't stand the d.l.c. forever. the pressure on the un is now greater than ever and matters are only being made worse by the ongoing violence in the region. for more on this on the way the international crisis group in nairobi kenya joins us now thanks for your time so put us or see the u.n. mission is really in them but the u.n. says they are not there in warsaw what exactly is a u.n. mission there for. i had a good afternoon. i think one receive in the in the deer sea over the past few weeks is that the effort to see the greenies army is attacking the a.d.f. the a.d.f. on their part is attacking the population and then the population is attacking. the peacekeeping mission in the dear sea and that is their mandate there in the d.n.c.
12:21 am
to keep the peace but i think what you see at the moment is that there is no peace to keep so from when it's go it's there really on the pressure and it's very difficult for them to act also because there are a lot of there a lot of expectations from the population that will fix it but that's very complicated ok so let's understand that clearly so over 20 years since i've been causing havoc in congo i look at. the un peacekeepers combined weeks to defeat these groups you know you see that when it's good together with the f.r.d. see or sometimes the air for d.c. alone they've been trying to attack a.t.f. the rebel movement that has been active in the deer sea for over 20 years and that is probably one of the main issues the a.d.f. has been in the region for years and they know the region very well they are in embedded in the local communities so that means that the approach that go and the congolese army are taking is not the right one and they have not been very
12:22 am
effective in defeating the rebel movement in the beni area ok then what should be the right approach. what should be the right approach i think for us it graces group we believe that there are 2 things that people should take into account and the 1st one is that a military solution as it's currently being perceived is not the right track because the a.d.f. is so embedded in the local people communities you need to involve the communities you need to collect intelligence you need to speak to the communities into order to find the way to defeat the a.d.f. you also need to involve the region because. the region is very implicated in a lot of militias active in the east and the are seen either by supporting proxy wars or creating destabilization so you don't need just a military approach and you also need to invoke the region to find a solution. now like at fund the valley where the international crisis group in kenya now in zimbabwe senior doctors have joined hundreds of june at least if you
12:23 am
must walk out this week they are warning of what they are calling the silent genocide caused by dire conditions in hospitals public sector doctors demand that they reinstatement of over 400 you know the least one who were fired after you dispute indispensable it was unclear how many cigar doctors strike. our reports are privileged machinery joins us from zimbabwe to talk more about this at a privileged thanks for joining us so tell us more why are the doctors striking and what are the id months. there the strike ease involving a lot of things junior dog says once they have to be increased they are saying that in their income busted because ofa watched the ending and at the same time this senior dogs as they have also joined the strike to support the junior doctors and these are demanding that. the health system be equal if you look at
12:24 am
most of the public was because they are seeing that the public speech was under their using absolutes equipment speaking to one of the doctors that i spoke to earlier on he intimated that they disheartened to go to wic and wic with speeches that do not have adequate equipment and seeing their patients dying because of this it was because do not have enough drugs they do not have good equipment to use we are very much interested in the questions we current because some of us were born doctors we can't do anything else other than people and we see on patients dying and this is something you keep it's a war so definitely a concerned doctor there but how consent is the government will get to that in
12:25 am
a bit but tell us now 1st how this is affecting patients. it is affected patients immensely you'll find specially your poor people who cannot afford to pay for private with kids those that rely on public health systems are suffering a lot and you will feel good to most of the public holds. public hospitals and most of the people are no longer taking the sikh religion as they have because they know there are no dogs either some of dying in their homes or they're just you know disparate so prevalent tell us how is the government reacting to all of this. the government has reacted to really instead of going. to negotiating table with the doctors in
12:26 am
taking time to understand what is going on in the hospitals they have actually gone ahead to go to court to seek for the punishment of the dogs as we have been on strike so you see some of them have been dismissed from where it could be a more than 500 that have been given dismissal. so efforts to negotiate have not you did a might. for the benefit of the patients. privileged. now why don't we all love our free future well that could just happen on the island of zanzibar scientists are using drones in what could be a breakthrough in the fight against the disease. taking to the sky to fight malaria. the room sprays and non toxic silicon film. that drowns the mosquitoes. this is how the farmers
12:27 am
normally spray their feelings taking hours even days. now these farmers learn how to fly the drone and it's relatively inexpensive and much quicker. a troll can fly with the speed readjust one hectare with 10 litters what be 3 minutes. really calculate that within one hour we can spray 8 hectares of the liquid sprayed across the surface of the stagnant water forming a thin film this suffocates the mosquitoes after $3.00 to $4.00 weeks the liquid then breaks down naturally then sprayed again. the drones can be controlled manually off like completely by itself the pilot knowing the g.p.s.
12:28 am
coordinates and knowing there. the area that needs to be spray council like that area can with a few flying and spray bottle meters and literally press to bottles in bulk that task the flight task on the drawing well automatically take off automatically operate and spray on it but this technique could also have other benefits. save it out now it can be used to kill mosquitoes but later on the government could arrange those drones to be used for spraying pesticides in a rice field. nowadays you can get good yields if you don't spray some pesticides especially here in our village. yes the world health organization said that these trials look very promising so maybe soon these fine malaria fighters will stop saving lives. well fingers crossed it up serious stuff that's it for now from the
