4:01 pm
actually get your attention is actually by civil disobedience rebellion is without question britain's fastest growing religion. thanks for joining us this evening. to ask a state media reporting that the syrian army's been moving to the north of the country as well turkey's carrying out an offensive against the kurds. we're just receiving reports that the kurdish administration and the syrian government have signed an agreement that will see the syrian army deployed along the whole border with turkey nasr in state media is reporting that the syrian army forces are making their way to the north of the country in an effort to stage off what they call an offensive by turkey on syrian territory at the same time we're hearing from lebanon
4:02 pm
this television reporting that some of these syrian forces have really interested in northern syrian town of money bish and that they were able to do so because kurdish fighters simply let them pass through their checkpoints lebanese television also reporting that damascus and the kurdish that syrian democratic forces have signed an agreement that will see the syrian forces into another key town called bani within the coming hours and that right now the syrian army soldiers are really just preparing for that now on this sunday there was concern expressed by the u.s. defense secretary mark that the kurds and the syrians had struck a deal to work together at the same time the united states has announced that it's withdrawn some 1000 troops from northern syria out of concern that they could get caught in the crossfire between the kurds the turks and the syrians and all of this coming as the american president donald trump tweets and warning to turkey that he
4:03 pm
will impose a powerful sanctions against ankara pov we heard any more information any reaction to those reports of multiple prison break ups by isis militants while hundreds of islamic state fighters have been fleeing from numerous detention camps that were previously controlled by the kurds in northern syria the kurds have been retreating from their positions since ways day when turkey launched what of course an end to terrorist operation now a number of european countries particularly germany and france have expressed concern that this offensive will result in a disastrous humanitarian situation and. they've also said that they are extremely concerned about islamic states fight is escaping on mass now they've already said that it's halted on sales to turkey and iraq questions over whether an offer going to impose sanctions at the same time the president added one has said that all these reports about islamic state faces breaking out of prisons are fabricated and
4:04 pm
that they are all aimed at creating fear in the face of the turkish offensive which he continues to justify. i'm joined now on the line by middle east expert and contributor to the monitor web sites alley risk for getting to you what will change if damascus moves onto the border is reported is turkey going to come into direct conflict with syrian army forces. actually i was just. was reading some breaking news just about 10 minutes ago i spoke. was about. saying that the turkish also will engage syrian forces if the syrian forces do go to move in syria now will they actually translate what he wants and why action that remains to be seen also be i think going to be very risky. before you say it's not just the syrian army from what i've read. you will see it also appears
4:05 pm
that russia might be deploying more might be involved that you're not sending since you're in sync with it and i don't think that the turks will gavel in entering into a confrontation with russia on the other side so. you know this step it is quite a significant step but i wouldn't necessarily think that we all agree on conventional war really syrian all you know turkish army are just not been on the. president to go that far i think with any turkish statements you know and saying the. confront syrian forces and we'll do this i think that those statements will probably will. come sumption now we're tracking what he has had to do in society in syria when territory is it's possible that it will manage in this terrible reason to seize right now but not go be all in some places like. all other cities in the syrian
4:06 pm
army and 2nd to deploy but i think another significant development in working we have to learn that one of our number one is that. we see a poppy ship you know i think that you don't finish what merican highlights at basically it's lost trust in the united states now we see it won't do kurds at gates we won't be ready until. the syrian government and also with russia and start the most will be the it cannot be us the affluence and one foreign policy saying that yes the free syrian army was already in the pot with syria and russia that would mean that it would prevent genocide that was so you know the political developments a holes are very interesting and something else i think this also was a blow to those who wanted to divide syria you know some peoples work it out
4:07 pm
federal system i'm going to say dividing syria into different camps loads of possible. the most states are now i think that's been dutch the way the remaining problem would be to deal with the areas which turkey now has part office minister or asian i think that would be the main sticking point. just relating to the situation just explain new alliances being formed they still kind of stems really directly from the united states withdrawing its troops do you think that if this was only about the u.s. donald trump doing what he said he would do any campaign trail pulling out his troops could they have full seen any of what has followed. it's possible they could have foreseen that but you know if you look at one of china's track record ever since he came to power until now i don't i don't believe i could be mistaken when i don't believe that this decision stands for any.
4:08 pm
truckies not to take you know sort of decisions on the spot if you look at the phone call which was made between may have had a phone call which in which need basically gave the green light let's look at the current military operation. or what was the heat would be don't want to take care of my sister prisons now the issue of isis prisoners is the something which strong has been talking about a slew of options saying that we were going to take them we don't want to stay and so i think that will go on to basically played a somewhat smaller game by giving trying something and getting something on trial because as i said strong wanted most of the you know he doesn't want america to be in charge of these isis. and number 2 i think he doesn't want to get from the middle east although that you know he did send since to saudi arabia recently but you know from a water he doesn't want to give the middle east i'm going to we have elections
4:09 pm
coming up in america in about a year from now and one of his campaign for jews as you mentioned was to do these troops if he is able to make some progress on that front to that who is really there to grades you know is chances of being we have like that especially in the midst of this you know with the mess the campaign which is talk of being in you know it's awkward ph from the big states criticism of him sort of want to believe that this would be one of the way years in which to counter these and maybe help his reelection bid. thanks for joining us here in our been listening to the thoughts of middle east expos and contributed to the alamo it's a website at the risk. could it was in the grip of until 30 protesters point president's line in the right i was military about the food that was imposed on saturday earlier about the use of tanks government buildings

hollywood horror film the pudge. and. the film's premise is that once a year for 12 hours only crimes are allowed mogs a fact also rate you name it you've got a free pass and that because of this small window to release all your rage the country becomes crime free for the other $364.00 days it's a small sacrifice for the wider peace and stability and in scenes eerily similar to the film's opening hong kong apparently had a pudge of its own. to broker the still air vents and you look for.
4:17 pm
the merchants the services the suspects but it was a hoax that actually wasn't that far from the reality of the chaotic mania gripping the streets of hong kong. hong kong had a very dark night because of the extreme acts of the rioters the city's now cemetery lies to everyone is worried her even the frayed. shops and looted buildings burned the metro disrupted for the fast time in over 20 years shopping centers food shops and banks closed down fearing wolf islands from the vandals a city which was renowned for its efficiency and. venus is now mired in confusion and to sorta the instability has spooked the markets and seen hong kong's retail sales suffer the biggest drop on record and while the city's 1000000 as a parking must 2 cases for those who can't just rustle up a 1000000 euros to get a foster residency abroad the options are limited can't go anywhere we came from
4:18 pm
mainland china and we didn't know the stations were closed so now we can do is a big problem for public transport is for everyone the decision to open or close the station cannot be politically if it's everyone's daily life if you save it situations it's very difficult for you see trees not of people use the phrase and because of. their story we really are afraid of the discourse and. the entire thing anyway so i think that's kind of ridiculous now there are those who will say the film shows scenes of senseless violence while the protestors are engaged in a campaign of peaceful civil disobedience and what of course no image shows the full picture for this undercover police officer who was beaten with petrol bombs by and incensed mob the line is probably a bit more blood with the lenses of the international media zoomed in on the region
4:19 pm
there's no shortage of scenes just like this and don't worry if it's a slow day but i'm more than willing to lend a helping hand to spice up the show. as businesses are crushed as fires back on and as people are forced to pick sides claims that it's all in the name of peace and democracy are. wearing. these protests is no longer our pro-democracy protests he's turning to roy holt the protest star malls the engage in violence our young people it is because for the past. decades. the hong kong government
