armando, this nomic republic took my brother hostage a few days ago. the trying to sign in the scene of the job. they will be silent. starts june 3rd on dw, the . this is dw, use my from the that i think the energy migrant frederick could tactic turkeys may know position thinks will when, if all boats and sundays bundles, the campaign issue is already making like out of, for the millions of syrians in turkey. they talk to some of those refugees. at least 2 people die and strikes on

a hospital in ukraine. others kind of narrow escapes? yeah, well actually from the pool. i was in the kitchen with my husband when we heard a loud explosion that people still don't know i was throwing and what was the rules? the price president calls the latest version of tax on his country, a crime against humanity. and so the a sense troops to its border with kosovo off the clash is around the race began off the cost of the police and for the installation of you if they go by the and miss the i paid for the will and welcome toki has reached the final stretch of its presidential rates. so these run off it's incumbent president bunch of times i've had one against opposition, challenges to mike at least thought or crowds turned doubtful. one of the presidents, final election valleys in east and will add one most likely to win the 2nd round of

voting after naturally failing to secure a majority of 4th time to go. his challenge also address supporters in assembled, but he lives rural as also resorted to n t, michael and frederick to boast that his chances promising to for millions of refugees out of the country and lucky abraham is following the selection for us from is nimble as to how the issue of migration is being used in the campaign will be issue of anti refugee and anti syrian sentiment. specifically, ben has been present in turkey, even before the election church. turkey famously opened his door to the syrian refugees, letting in a little over 3000000 here in the country, and they were initially welcome. but then with the economic downturn, right, about 2018, we started seeing the refugees and the syrians being blamed for the country's economic struggle. then came the campaign, the election campaign about 2 months ago. and of course this topic was very present

on both camps, both president edwin and of course his opponent criminal kids felt a little, you know, had made the plans or promises about returning refugees back. but the tone was very different. ken, located several of the opposition candidates seem more aggressive then president here to one. there was also a 3rd party, a candidate who was a lot more aggressive and much more right wing a person. when the results of the 1st rank came out in the 3rd party or right when kennedy got about 5 percent of the vote. and so in the 2nd round, it's really a been been a, you know, the question of who will get these votes of the 3rd party candidates he has since in board president, they're doing what in an attempt to, you know, try to sway these border voters. the opposition candidates came up to this through has been more aggressive and we have to say much, much,

much more incentive phobic. then in the 1st round, i mean i was walking down the street of a symbol today and you know, he has election plaque cards. all over the place, with things like syrians will go, all of them will leave, and you can imagine what it must be like to be a syrian refugee living in this country and seeing those signs. this has a real effect on people's lives. here i've, i've spoken to parents who say their kids have anxiety attacks because of this refugee saying that they, you know, when they see a police check for, they try to avoid that. and also people who have been attacked physically attacked because of the rising xenophobia here. in this country, and there's undoubtedly a connection between that and the election campaign i visited a, you know, a cultural center in arabic speaking cultural center here in assembles to talk to a members of a, you know, the modern community here and assemble about how the election has affected them and this is what some of them have to say. let's take a look in

a previous life. diane was an architect. she now helps run yolo, a control center and cafe. she started in his temple here, ban hosts concerts, group therapy sessions, or workshops, karaoke, open mike and stand up comedy nights. you'll. everyone is welcome. she says, but a lot of the events in the program, peter to arabic, speakers like herself, as it's been done for you and how we started this because we wanted and needed to. but there was no space where we could meet people, a learn something in arabic, we had. so i thought, why shouldn't we be the ones that create that space? as long as that we reached a point where we would tired of the pressure of having to explain ourselves as individuals as syrians. we're here trying to build ourselves from nothing and we hadn't had them in tablets before the band came to turkey from syria as a refugee. she worked for almost a decade before she and a partner had gathered enough funds to start. you'll know it's short for you only live once, but for many refugees, an air of migrants. it's

a lifeline. a place where they can escape a society that's grown increasingly hostile to them. throughout turkey's current election campaigns ban has watched the media escape good syrians and migrants for the country's economic clothes. even though she has now become a turkish citizen, she still feels excluded. that'll make us look and feel comfortable that a, regardless of my legal status, i'm still considered syria and i'm the direct positive hate speech. i sometimes think to myself, it's still best that i'm here because if i'd stayed in syria, maybe i wouldn't be alive. so i think like this to make myself go on to motivate myself them and then that actually highly that i let them both candidates and turkeys. presidential election has made promises to send the syrian refugees back to their home whether to deportation for voluntary return. the topic of migration is on the present in the selection campaign that we struggled to find the syrian

refugees willing to speak to us about it. on camera. sammy's experience in turkey perhaps explains why. the 26 year old agreed to speak to us only if we can see how his identity. he's a syrian journalist with a residence permit, but needs to be renewed every year. the power for the gun. when i step up to the house, i tried to hide my identity, my di, i'm serious. i'm not. i tried not to speak and out of it and probably either be the sole dog he's been told off for speaking arabic and public before and his word. these tensions might escalate across the country. there are rising reports of violence against syrians. there was a move there. heard this. i feel that if someone to text me, i did not have any legal protection. no one will stand up for my rights. my husband moved to new york as a city and refugee in tucker society. i feel like i have no value. ok.

i'm not going to so far. back in yellow. it's a full house tonight. the topic of discussion is how to deal with nagging and relationships. has enough to i don't want people to come here and here the same things they hear at home and work on tv on public transportation. i don't want them to get the looks they get outside and especially the ones with a visibly syria that because no one would be comfortable in a place where it's so public that you're not welcome out of the how they selection posters are on the streets. it's no longer, she didn't go in direct and perhaps the has, the police feels worlds away from the polarized atmosphere right outside the door. much to the relief of patrons and staff. hold onto because of it's a safe space. when we're here, we felt like way back home, and you'll or it was the only place where i can be myself and at the same time as michael. sure. and how, how funny abraham's photo and serial refugees in tokyo with president ad ones seen

as the favorite in sundays bundles. what board? 5 more years of a, the one main for turkey and the bar of the while he's promised, i mean he's at least pitched himself as demand for stability, a continuity really leaning on. you know, some of the successes that he's had over his 20 years at the house of turkish, a policy. obviously the country is going through a severe economic crisis right now, partially because of president are the ones on orthodox economic policies. but he has promised that he will be the person to turn things around and get turkey veteran. and a lot of people do believe him. and we have to say though, that we can also expect, you know, the correct on a personal freedoms. press freedom to rights, women's rights, political prisoners, all of that to continue to is a present or the one wins, a nother term and foreign policy. turkey being

a member of nato that has always been somewhat antagonistic to it's western allies . we can expect that to continue on the world stage as well. they don't use abraham . thank you very much for your 40 russian officials say to drones cause an early morning explosion that struck the administrative building of an oil pipeline. the blasts for around 10 killer, because from the border with bellows near the village of if in the oval moscow has previously blamed ukraine for similar incidents, keith has not acknowledged the tax against targets inside roger. ukraine's president's alarm is lensky has condemned the latest russian missile attacks on his country holding them crimes against humanity. at least 2 people were killed on friday and more than a dozen and wounded when rushed themselves hit a hospital in april. it was the 2nd wave of the tax on the central ukrainian city in less than a week to meet pro has seen many

a dark since the start of the war. but the boot ality of this one has strong people in the city and across ukraine. the dog, it was a medical facility and a veterinary hospital ukraine's president has called the crime against humanity. so, so those are the store. i said it appeal atrocity. a russian ballistic missile against a hospital in a veterinary clinic means that almost we will do everything possible. now everything impossible to feed up the supply of more uh, defense systems of a higher quality to ukraine. these littering issue working on without partners daily. but then the regional government says a 69 year old possible life was among those guilds. 2 boys is 3, and 6 are being seated in hospitals. i witnesses recall what happened as well as the main impact is that the veterinary clinic, the doctors were carrying burned animals out here. i ran in there to save my cat as

well. so that was supposed to get some into surrounding residential buildings. had a narrow escape, so it was yeah, will actually for my for our was in the kitchen with my husband when we heard a loud explosion of getting a little stone. no, i was throwing. what was the wolf will know you. luckily it was only a short distance, so you and you'll never really see apartment filled up with smoke. in the kitchen window was open and stayed intact to april. 4th, you didn't put other windows on the balcony. we destroyed a week now. it was very frightening in the middle. it seemed to be a couple of weeks ago, both great ukraine's miller crusade, the shut down dozens of russian drones and messiahs. but the one that got through was enough to cause considerable destruction. so the guys put its troops on high or low down classes between serbs and police in neighboring costs. a vote. the on risk began when ethics of just trying to prevent recently elected ethnic albanian

officials from entering municipal buildings cost of in police 5 to guest his bus grant. an ex report looks at the town of switch on where a police cause they don't find the thought started as a peaceful protest. soon spiraled as of control, as police tried to clear. so being residents blocking entry to this government building in northern costs of, of the wheat t guest, spilling the purchases were forced to abandon the efforts to stop the towns newly sworn in ethnic albanian mat from entering cause was set to blaze more than a dozen people injured as protest has tried to block new officials nearby towns as well. but once the police were able to cleared the streets, they made it into the offices. the violence comes off the ethnic albanian

politicians, one the elections in the submarine majority area in april. when a time you turn out of bed, the 3.5 percent following the fully caught by subs that was pushed by the serbian government. it's just the latest unrest in the area when most of the population still remains loyal to bell grade. many subs here have never accepted costs of those independence across the border to the notes be as president alexander boot church told support is that a rally that his government would defend cost of a subs short term? i mean, we would protect and ask for peace as well. i will fight for every 2nd of peace, obviously with last longer. however, you know, but i'm telling you about the 1st attack from the serbs and the north of costs of over beyond metro. here, serbia will not sit idly by you want to banish serves, but you won't succeed. but any attempt by serbian troops to enter the cost of

a would mean a fight with nato peacekeepers. international troops have been helping maintain security in the restive region for over 2 decades. now. the us gemini and others have cooled for all sides to avoid inflammatory rhetoric and the cost of and government to de escalate the situation. i've been presented in mike, look what will have you'll well use next now and i'll see you tomorrow the what are sports, all of our meaning when we say they're about never giving up.
