there are conflicting reports that a new player has joined the military operation in syria. fighting forces according to some sources. with the. troops to the region to support them however the. africa has turned into a bloodbath a grinding war that is claiming dozens if not hundreds of lives every day.
12:02 am
turkish soldiers their rebel allies die in droves near a thousand dead reportedly the kurds the y. p g p k k or p y d some estimates put their losses at over a thousand in a matter of weeks the turkish operation in africa isn't so much an advance as it is a meat grinder this is a senseless yet according to the belligerence necessary slaughter and it's hurting everyone we can cooperate with any side that lends us a helping hand in light of the barbaric crimes and the international silence there is a possible solution one that could stop this madness and man the least likely candidate of all. of the said assad is clearly a terrorist and is carrying out state terrorism there is no peace in syria cannot
12:03 am
be any peace with assad in power as the regime says we will hand over our regions to the regions we will never hunt them over. that was then before the us led anti isis coalition began butchering each other now when everyone's dying and they need him as said isn't such a bad guy anymore. if regime forces enter the city to eliminate the teacake in the way the terrorists then we don't have a problem with that however if we go there to defend the way the nothing and nobody can stop our soldiers. it's simple if asaad took over african and african syrian territory he could this arm or sideline the y.p. ji ankara's enemy would be neutered and there'd be no more need to throw away
12:04 am
turkish lives the kurds in turn would survive and afrin won't be turned into another crater it's the least bad solution so far the only solution to stopping this now. kutluk your question but it is a very good step it's good news for us may god help them and everyone who supports but honey collette analysis we are all very happy about this decision we want this crisis to end so people can return to their homes we are waiting for the pro-government forces to help us it's early days the details are still being worked out the issue is no one trusts anyone the turks are afraid asaad will ally with the y.p. ji the white b.g. are afraid that assad will sell them out to the turks and asaad assad probably wants both gone we spoke to journalist danny makki who thinks that both sides have
12:05 am
been expecting our side to step in. well it is ironic because both the kurds and the turks of a different time stated their absolute condemnation of the syrian government and their unwillingness to deal with with president assad or the government at any particular moment in time now now both of these groups are now looking at damascus as some sort of peacemaker in this conflict because the first factory's desperation both sides cannot find an ultimate solution to this conflict which is emerge i mean the turks are losing troops and tanks on a day to day basis because in the south and no allies by any stretch of the imagination but they view that deal with assad would be better than making a deal on a very weak terms with the turks the second factor is the lack of the definitive role of the united states of america which is essentially saying it's two main allies either in syria or next to syria fighting each other now that's a chaos so damascus has just stepped into this void and is filling the vacuum

created by this tension and this crisis. over to japan now where recently discovered archive documents of showed light on the practice of forced sterilization which affected thousands of people with mental or physical health issues and they underwent the procedure under the eugenics protection law which was in force up until nine hundred ninety six of the victims are now hoping to get compensation from the state. has a hard time getting through the middle school. one of the teachers took me mr cassatt and his house that i was constantly be used by his wife i never got some never got paid and never had the chance to see the official paper to back my diagnosis either she hated me.
12:07 am
my teacher took me for a magical challenge and then i was taken to hospital he didn't explain anything. when i woke up i was there stephen they told me not to treat me or to ask but i remember. at the time my parents told me that i was operated on and now i cannot have babies my father didn't agree to a breach was forced to sign documents by teaching and welfare reform. though i had many chances to get married when i was young but tough to the operation i found some period i married and divorced i'm married again my husband left me when i told him about the operation.
12:08 am
the committee recommends to adopt specific measures aimed at finding a tim's with a system as to access an equal remedies and provide them with compensation and rehabilitative said this is. the government should make a punishing pay compensation to them if i was not forced to go to the operation. i know i will suffer until the end of my life if only i could be in time as i caught . the woman's lawyer told us the fight for justice is far from over as the japanese government is reportedly choosing to tell a blind eye to the problem. the two and a half years ago i received a call from mrs tuke it was the first time i'd heard about this matter we found out that people were taken to the facilities and forcefully operated on one hundred structures from the government it was a whole organized system of japan still has
12:09 am
a problem with ideas and eugenics and those who claim that disabled people have no right to live some psychometrist have started speaking out about the things that they did back then instead of taking their licenses away i think it would be better to ask them to bring their confessions to light and. now that we're discovering the truth we need to make those responsible apologize their actions and make sure the victims get compensation it's clear now that the main problem here is the japanese government continuing to ignore the problem and advice from the un. japan is not the only country that has a some point resorted to forced sterilization programs inspired by eugenics among the notable examples are of germany during the nazi occupation the nazi rule and sweden both countries have since offered compensation to those people involved. while afghan citizens have submitted more than a million statements to the international criminal court alleging that they were victims of war crimes the court began collecting testimonies in november last year
12:10 am
the statements describe accounts of alleged atrocities perpetrated not only by the taliban or by islamic state but also by the afghan army and by american military forces in the country some of the testimonies were submitted on behalf of several people so the actual number of alleged crimes could be higher and we spoke to a bill that what they were paid to rome who is from the human rights and eradication of violence organization he believes the testimonies should be investigated. the biggest of all. the main terrorist groups in afghanistan are the taliban and the carny network but international organizations in the countries that support these terrorist groups may also be responsible for rights abuses the culture of impunity from the law is unfortunately expanding in afghanistan wards and other human rights abuses have a lot of power in the country and they sadly continue to trample on the rights of the afghan people we hope that these will crimes will be investigated in the international criminal courts so that we can be part of a country that is stable secure and where rights respected at the end of last year
12:11 am
the international criminal court released a statement alleging american armed forces as well as the cia committed crimes in afghanistan a back in two thousand and three to two thousand and four by jennifer bruton who's an attorney specializing in foreign policy believes that it's going to be very difficult to bring about forms of justice. there could be many more claims that come out these claims have come out against three different factions the taliban and their hakani network in afghanistan also against afghanis government forces or of afghanistan military there and as well as u.s. military and u.s. military personnel in afghanistan now on the domestic side the united states military code has a very strict in stringent of very long lists of laws that military personnel men and women have to be subject to and they have to follow but in terms of international crimes that fall under the jurisdiction of the international criminal
12:12 am
court then no then the u.s. cannot be held under their jurisdiction because the united states is not a signatory to the rome statute which created the international criminal court so in that case it would be less likely that they'd be brought to justice by member states or those that are aligned or fall under the jurisdiction of the i.c.c. . it's been one year since for tali chuckin one of russia's most prominent diplomats passed away he served as a russia's ambassador to you to the u.n. during one of the toughest periods in global relations the most though he died on the eve of his sixty fifth birthday of a heart attack. if

12:18 am
so who's hot on norway's heels made twenty one year old dennis speeds of who's already won a bronze in a silver n.p.r. chang. i feel proud for speed so off we see this young guy winning bronze here this was a great surprise for me was dedicated himself completely to the sport how is it possible not to support such passion in africa and of course the athletes feel our support for the performance against all the odds wouldn't have been possible without. a former olympic champion now in charge of the washing cross-country skiing federation she wasn't allowed to come to korea as an official or coach so yes here at all the races as a thin client tears she was the one who raised the new generation of olympic medalists in skiing. before our athletes were suspended from competition the initial plan was to get one gold medal one that's whosoever and then one of us who
12:19 am
bronze but given the fact that we came to the olympics missing eight athletes six zero breach our team leaders in world skiing i said if we win only one prize it will mean there we've done better than we planned five medals and cow. by the clean young determined olympic cross-country athletes from russia. the latest hollywood superhero blockbuster black panther has been praised all around but for some that's a problem as caleb maupin explains the new hollywood blockbuster black panther is creating quite a stir in an era where diversity is a favorite word the film is seen as a huge breakthrough for african-americans the first ever big budget comic book story with one superhero the cultural significance of marvel's black panther is immense sting praised for its impact on the black community it's white people as we see ourselves even as we like to see ourselves as again masters of our own
12:20 am
destinies not waiting for white savior to come and rescue is from whatever receiving ourselves now there's a common criticism of hollywood that film directors and actors of color are less acceptable in mainstream culture so the fact that a film like black panther is making such a huge splash is seen as a huge breakthrough and success by many americans shows positive african-american heroes and that's something that hasn't been in film and i think it's fabulous now this folie a movie that represents black people was like you know the good guys for works now it's pretty clear the film is touching a nerve in us society as some say criticizing the film is unacceptable i implore media outlets to please seek out rightists of color to the black parents in movie. not so bold prediction the first critic to write a rotten review of black pamphlet will be white now we decided to ask moviegoers here in new york city if they thought the film was good or bad for american
12:21 am
political discourse folks on the internet are saying that if you're white and you criticize the film that that's unacceptable that's racist do you buy that no absolutely not it's like any other film it's a bad movie it's a bad movie doesn't matter what color i think every movie should be criticized on its own regardless of where you are in the event or what your background is people have their own opinion do whatever say whatever they want right now just let people be happy you know they'll read it good or very views if you read them later now the film is widely celebrated by advocates of diversity however some activists are criticizing the film for the fact that no l g b t seems or characters were included it looks like today in the age of social media and you just can't please everyone caleb mopp and art see new york. and anonymous trade has port four hundred million dollars worth of bitcoin the purchase became visible thanks to block chain technology during the last days of the world block chain economic forum
