Now the change has come theres certain it will be for the better tiny a page aljazeera johannesburg two other news and survivors of europes worst massacre since World War Two are celebrating a verdict from the International Criminal tribunal for the former yugoslavia judges have sent its former bosnian serb commander right to life in prison convicted for his role in the murder of eight thousand muslim men and boys in srebrenica in one thousand nine hundred five in a moment well hear from david chase the intrepid its a first though theyve baka at. The chamber finds. Guilty as a member of first joined criminal enterprises of the following counts count to genocide the verdict came a lot of his victims have waited decades for but the seventy three year old former bosnian serb general wasnt in the court to hear it hed been a gentle moments earlier this outburst the midst of a lot if you if you continued like this. We adjourn his defense team had urged the judge to halt proceedings citing concerns over his Blood Pressure but the court rejected the plea finding guilty on one of two counts of genocide and nine of war crimes and crimes against humanity during the chaotic breakup of the former yugoslavia the court ruled that milan its carried out a Relentless Campaign of ethnic cleansing aimed at ridding non serbs from bosnian territory theres nothing curious about executing prisoners theres no security. To hold the. Individuals prosecuted convicted by these tribunals very. Much because theres been prosecuted and convicted for not respecting the geneva conventions among those crimes are some of the worst atrocities carried out in europe since the Second World War thank you the four year siege of sarajevo which an estimated ten thousand people were killed in shelling and sniper fire and the massacre of thousands of mostly men and boys in the town of srebrenica where my colleague David Chaytor now reports. The mothers of srebrenica called once again in the horror of their own memories watching the Court Proceedings in the hague in a small museum in the middle of the cemetery where their loved ones are buried they wanted justice as ever there. Was. When it came a surge of elation followed by a wave of emotion that waited twenty two years for this move but they too have all had a life sentences families and villages torn apart a heavy burden of grief that they will take to the grave. Among them was not caught in this iconic photograph of the genocide pleading with a u. S. Soldier to help her get back a house mint her son and her brother but this was no safe zone. They were gone forever so right now something is sort of my point is that im delighted that the court has brought such a judgment im happy mother ive waited for this judgment for twenty two knees as a mother as a sister as a wife and i personally fought for these so much from day one until today more than eight thousand muslim men and boys died in the killing fields around. But still one thousand victims have not been found every week in the forests and the hills around in this cemetery theyre finding yet more bones so the problem is what the future brings what do we leave toward children what happens after this the deep divisions between ethnic communities here look set to continue the Service Member of the tripartite presidency of Bosnia Herzegovina said the court did not deliver justice but politics distrust instead of trust but ivana said instead of reconciliation there will be political conflicts David Chaytor aljazeera celebrity. We heard from general mike jackson a little earlier as a former u. N. Commander who led the Protection Force in western bosnia back in one thousand nine hundred five and he says the scars of that conflict still havent healed the. Atmosphere in bars and herzegovina. For the United NationsProtection Force. Im afraid that the rules of engagement under which im proof or work did not did not allow them to get involved in the fighting. The mandate was a humanitarian law to ensure protection of the delivery of humanitarian aid. This was not adequate for the circumstances certainly which occurred which led to the awful tragedy of srebrenica ive been that the deep seated and tag of this. Are still there. Dayton was a compromise these three then warring factions did not go to dayton. Very volatile. Because basically. The war in bosnia had. Rented all three parties. In a very difficult position and says there was great reluctance to exit date but they did but at the heart of date was this division between the socalled federation that is between the bosniaks and so on the one hand and then republicans serbska of the other. And this institutionalized the antagonism between the Bosnian Serbs the bosniaks and the kurds and are it fair to say that situation is frozen in time. It would be hard to argue against that conclusion. The u. S. Secretary of state has issued his strongest condemnation yet meehan mosse treatment of the ranger in fact he has used the woods ethnic cleansing next to us and visited me in my last week but avoided using that term he is threatening sanctions now for those responsible for what he calls horrendous atrocities in Rakhine States roselyn jordan with more from washington the u. S. Announcement on wednesday that it believes ethnic cleansing is happening in iraq and state in me and maher is remarkable the announcement from the u. S. Secretary of state Rex Tillerson comes barely three months after the military started a crackdown on an armed or a hang a group which the military says was responsible for carrying out terrorist attacks. Washington has long said that david l. Has the right to ensure National Security but that this crackdown has gone too far more than six hundred thousand ethnic were hanged men women and children have fled from iraq kind state into the neighboring country of bangladesh triggering a massive refugee crisis the u. S. Believes that it is now up to the authorities in naperville both civilian and military to ensure the quick we patriae sion of all of these ethnic group as well as to make certain that they are protected from recrimination and attacks they also are calling on the government to grant the rohingya full citizenship something which they have never enjoyed now the u. S. Ambassador to the United Nations nikki haley has met several times with authorities from me and maher urging them to basically change their ways and to make the situation involving the rohingya as safe and as stable as quickly as possible but so far there has not been any real change at least to the satisfaction of officials here in washington so now comes not just the determination that ethnic cleansing is underway but theres now also the threat of potential targeted u. S. Sanctions against those people inside me amar who are responsible for the ongoing attacks on the rohingya its now up to the people in me and mark both in the civilian and in the military leadership to try to see if they can actually comply with washingtons demands its a risk which they may not want to take you might think of the range of themselves the ones in the camps in bangladesh which are now overcrowded with many facing widespread manju tradition tend to chandra is there for us. One of the major challenge that aid agencies are facing is malnutrition among. Children more than half the population among their own and yet after days our children because of that bank of the government and unicef started a nutrition Awareness Week started on fifteenth of november and will continue to twenty second of november the main idea is to let the mothers know about this program that our clinic set up in all the camps to provide nutrition out medical facilities for the mothers and their children in the within the camp area. My grandchild is not well shes not eating well and hes very weak which is why. Many of their i interacted israel already suffering from malnutrition while in iraq and stayed children and their parents walked hundreds of miles across into bangladesh without much food supply now theyre suffering severe malnutrition cases hands banger thats going on unicef started this Awareness Program and to treat this as a major challenge i spoke to one of the spokesperson for unicef we have to consider one thing that when these children with. These three lynn we are already suffering from malnutrition weve been louis margins the threshold and also going to. These people in terms of being treated against malnutrition so this is why you had running this in this campaign down here heres whats coming up for you on this news hour russia says there is a real chance to win the war in syria the situation on the ground the right desperate. Search for that missing argentine submarine and the u. S. Eyes disgraced gymnastics facing a long time behind bars of a sexual abuse all the details and sports a little later. The end. But now the leading palestinian political factions including hamas and fatah have agreed they need to hold elections by the end of next year the leaders made the joint statement following marathon reconciliation talks in cairo. Following developments from gaza. Palestines two main Political Parties fighter and hamas along with twelve other palestinian factions came out with a statement after two eleven hour days of talks in cairo brokered by egypt theyve agreed to hold elections before the end of next year for all positions in the Palestinian Authority including the presidency and all positions below that the date for the elections will be set later by president palestinian president Mahmoud Abbas theyve agreed that in just over a week the Palestinian Authority will take over of ministration of gaza from hamas amasses been in control here for the last ten years since they fought with fatter and pushed them out. Due to take over very soon both sides all sides agreed to friel Political Prisoners those held here in gaza and in the west bank and they agreed to reform the Palestinian Liberation Organization which the organization that represents palestine internationally will be reformed to include representatives from hamas and from some of the other factions and to adjust its mission and mandate accordingly all sides agreed that senior government officials from egypt will come here within the next few days to monitor these terms that have been developments of whats been agreed upon but no date was set for the permanent reopening of the rafa crossing for most people in gaza thats the only way in or out its a Border Crossing with egypt has been closed for most of the last ten years reopened temporarily for a few days earlier this week but no date has been set for its permanent reopening momma always with us now from washington he is a palestinian american political analyst and research nice to see you look marathon talks eleven hours this is what theyve come up with it feels like theyre falling a little bit short here maybe. Now a little bit short but this is typical of all palestinian politics so when they fail to achieve anything they move it on forward to further down they kick the can down the road and now they are talking about after one year but the task at hand are very big that they havent agreed on over decades like reforming the. Hamas and Islamic Jihad to the p. L. O. That means the hamas have to give up on its charter so from what i see i think they agree to nothing its much about nothing with what they said now i think they have failed to achieve anything that helps the Palestinian People whether in the west bank or gaza and i think this is between the top guys the big guys and everybody is trying to get the other side to surrender to the other i think. The Palestinian Peoples life and history that they do not agree even on opening the borders and negotiate an opening of the borders for the two Million People in gaza or letting the palestinians who are in israeli jails going to ask you about the numbers of the or images jump in there about the Border Crossing because that is thats a tangible thing which the people of gaza really need surely that should have been higher on the agenda. You know what from what i know i think the egyptians are much worse than the israelis now and keeping that blockade against the palestinians in order to bring down and bring a solution to their issues with hamas with targeting hamas and the Palestinian People they are still refusing to open their borders they want to have control of the gaza strip like they did before nine hundred sixty seven war when are the not over. Step to the israelis so what from what i see i think we are still not in the event the square one we are still outside the possibility of reaching anything that can help the palestinian cause and lets keep in mind the americans and the europeans will refuse and they it is on their books they will not deal with any government that hamas is part of it so what kind of elections are we going to have and what are we going to do when there are elections and hamas is part of it what its over for the palestinians what about the. I want your opinion on the fact that the p. L. O. Will be taking over the running of the gaza strip again is that a positive development at least. No no because if we have we have another group to come and control the lives of the palestinians and their occupation and the occupation of the israelis and the occupation or the control of the Israeli Palestinian borders at the rafa crossing the borders with the with egypt and now the
