Well rachele he actually spoke for three and a half hours which is pretty impressive and i think what we can deduce from that is that president xi jinping is very healthy healthy enough to perhaps you know lead this country for the next ten fifteen or twenty years that is certainly the message that his supporters would like to put out now he spoke during that time he touched on a whole range of issues because of course so much has happened in china during the past five years he said that you know chinas economy was going to face challenges in the years ahead that was a rare acknowledgement that the economy is facing difficulties he also said that socialism with chinese characteristics which is the theory which has really underpinned chinas economy for the past three decades or so will continue but its now reached a new stage of development he also spoke about taiwan youre warning against independence and evolved that his anticorruption crusade that began shortly after he came to office would continue that Anti Corruption crusade has brought down more than one point four Million Party cardoso this party has been meeting behind me on wednesday has really been through a to mulch was time in the past couple of years and the president warned again today that the shakeup is not yet yet over and that shake up by the way has also extended to the Peoples LiberationArmy Generals who hadnt yet retired have been purged and that means that president xi jinping has made an awful lot of enemies so the only way for him is to go up which is why he needs to stay at the top of chinese politics for many years to come this is the congress michel that is all about president xi jinping whether hes going to emerge. From this Congress Even stronger than he has been in the past few years ok ed framed around why for us and beijing talking a lot less than three hours thank you. Amnesty international has accused me and maher Security Forces of killing hundreds of men women and children during a Systematic Campaign to expel rancher muslims from Rakhine State hundreds of thousands over head to have fled to neighboring bangladesh and that sparked a major humanitarian crisis amnesty is urging the Global Community to take action against what it calls crimes against humanity when he reports the exodus continues this drone footage was shot on monday by the United NationsRefugee Agency u. N. H. C. R. It shows range of crime down to muddy banks after fleeing me and my across the net to bangladesh and misty International Says there are escaping crimes against humanity being committed by the me and my military it says Security Forces are carrying out a systematic organized and Ruthless Campaign against the rigging.

I am now Security Forces are burning all our villages and killing our people which is why escaped to bang the danish they are taking all real hinge a man into forced labor camps making them work without pay and beating them up they also looting our livestock and goods if we protest they beat us and even kill us. This round of violence began in august when running jet fighters attacked Government Security posts the response from Security Forces was a socalled clearance operation that they said came to an end on the fifth of september but latest satellite images show the burning has continued according to Human Rights Watch the village at the top of this picture was intact after september the fifth now its completely torched below it is a buddhist village thats been left untouched. Me and my government says it will investigate whats happening in Rakhine State which the United Nations calls ethnic cleansing it also says it will begin a process of verification and repatriation soon but for so many who continue to flee there is nothing to go back to and no faith in what the government says when hey al jazeera there are celebrations in the syrian city of rocca where these are mixed a group has now lost its last stronghold kurdish Led Syrian Democratic forces raised their flag in the city stadium after a four month battle i met a on the turkey syria border reports. Kurdish fighters triumphantly into iraq theyre celebrating the capture of the city which was a main stronghold in syria but taking iraq wasnt easy. The Syrian Democratic forces a coalition of kurds and arabs backed by the u. S. Began the offensive in june i said fighters held ground for five months but the armed groups defense lines were eventually broken by a continual wave of strikes and shelling. We control rock up but as you know there are mines that we need to clear and we have to make sure there are no are still fighters hiding in tunnels we are now clearing all the areas we captured civilians continue to flee to safe areas this is a family that has just a refugee camp controlled by the. Tens of thousands of people have been affected by the fighting they mostly live in poorly equipped camps north of the city. I heard the news of a cease fire and took my family but then we came under fire the journey was tough because we had to walk through entire areas reduced to rubble now that iraq is under their control as fighters got the order to move south towards daters or i sells last area of control in syria. An advance that is likely to put the kurds on a collision course with the syrian army which is also launching an offensive from the southwest to capture the oil rich province the two have recently been competing to expand their military gains in iraq and there was over the counter rocket is a major setback for either which is now trying to hold ground in a vast desert area on the border with iraq by losing for thailands and on. Oilfields the group finds itself deprived of crucial financial means thats politically needs at this critical moment and it was hoping to use syria and iraq as a starting point for its self declared islamic state. Yes played a key role in the removal of eisel from morocco with President Trump claiming credit for changing the attitude of the military but exactly what role the u. S. Will take in the rebuilding of syria an iraq that still unclear our state Department Correspondent miles in jordan has more. For months of ammunition airstrikes and bloodshed. The payoff isis socalled capital of raka is practically in the control of syrian arab and kurdish fighters with a healthy assist from the u. S. Led military coalition there still is fighting left there but theres also training that continues with Iraq Internal Security force some of that training also includes you know very very aptly the counter i. E. D. Training which is allowing them to help remove some of these explosive remnants of war u. S. President donald trump quickly claimed credit for the success of the campaign saying his guidance quote has totally changed the attitudes of the military i totally changed our military i totally change the attitudes of the military and they have done a fantastic job the isis is now giving up it seems that winning the war against eisold may turn out to be the easy part the Obama Administration would only support those Syrian Opposition fighters who are willing to fight i sold not take on the Assad Government and in iraq they were dealing with kurds who felt that they should get an independent state in exchange for taking up arms against the group now its up to the trumpet ministration to figure out how or whether it should be involved in shaping the peace in both countries the u. S. Has said before its not in the business of nation building a point the state Department Spokesperson repeated on tuesday is to restore basic services that is our plan its not the sort of the nation building that the u. S. Government previously engaged in in other countries right now we see our role as getting the base. Up and running and then eventually turning it over to some to other countries and to that host country if you well a long time u. S. Diplomat says the trumpet ministration has both the will and the diplomatic and economic tools to help iraqis and syrians rebuild their countries but James Jeffrey questions whether the white house will seize the moment as long as there is one isis jihadi fighters out there there will be a temptation to say lets continue doing what works rather than get into this very complicated other stuff where we dont have guidance from above and therefore as a same group of people are working on all of these things you tend to go with whats working doing the easy thing at a time when iraqis and syrians may be expecting the u. S. And its allies to help them do the harder thing return their countries to being viable states rosalyn jordan aljazeera at the state department.
