Other aid workers have told aljazeera they welcome the saudi announcement but dont believe it goes far enough yemen the most impoverished country in the middle east is facing a number of crises.

Not just a few minutes it is said and things are actually. The fuel shortage in the countries that he says you know and little we want to try me to the fuel is also accommodated this part of this organised by the City Coalition to allude to operations that continue. Now as the u. N. Grows yet more concerned and a humanitarian crisis becomes even more dire yemenis in desperate need wait for answers and aid. Does either. Fears are growing for forty four crewmembers on board a missing arjan kind submarine Argentinas Navy says well could have been an explosion was heard near the last known location of the a r a son one there have been emotional scenes as well of the marble planter naval base where relatives of the subs crew are gathering many accuse the government of deliberately keeping them in the dark and letting the crew operate a submarine that was tool. You know the submarine wasnt found but they say its three thousand meters below the sea so noid they dont tell you anything thats why i say they are swans they are wicked and have been e. P. Lighted us they knew about it or in the story Daniel Schorr imo joins us live now from just this strict in buenos iris province so first of all daniel bring us up to date with the latest on the situation. Well as you saw from some of those scenes great despair and despondency it now seems almost certain that the forty four members of the crew of the ira sang one day that they probably died over a week ago there in lies the anger that you saw among some of those relatives why is it taken nine days since this reported explosion for the news to reach them for the news to reach the rest of argentina theres been no explanation for that and also the way that the news came about they were testing is being done by the un a body that tests new killer. Nuclear explosions tests they somehow saw about the explosion in the deep south of the South Atlantic Ocean it was revealed to the arjuns high an ambassador in vienna in austria and he then pass the information on to the north or it says it was revealed to the family shortly before a News Conference in model plotter at the naval base early this morning and then revealed to the rest of the world so the questions are being asked about why it was done in that particular way did the argentine authorities know about the explosion before it was revealed to them by the austrian or thorazine is there was it just the way that information was communicated their search and rescue operation is still going on countries ten countries involved with. Ships on the water rescue equipment still out in the south atlantic looking with the last hope that they may still be alive but really the hope of many of the family members much of argentina has now run out and they will be in the. Asking for a full inquiry and very full time obviously for the relatives of the crew members of. The large clinging on to hope but the way that the news leaked isnt the only reason that theyre so angry theres a lot of people accusing the government accusing at the navy of the fact of the using the submarine when it was just to alt. Well it was a submarine built in germany in one thousand nine hundred three sold to argentina in one thousand nine hundred eighty five it was refitted in the last few years to run for another thirty years and in the days of modern warfare it does defy belief that a vessel built in one thousand nine hundred three would still be being used in twenty thirty years or around there so people are asking that question it is only one of three submarines being used in the Argentine Navy all very old has been the question which is and so far been answered by the argentine orthorexic is what would such an old submarine be using although the authorities here i must stress have insisted that it was until last wednesday in good working order it was well maintained but it can certainly a very old vessel and joining us live now from just in one is iris province thank you. Interpol says its arrested forty people in a major operation against Human Trafficking in west africa five hundred people including two hundred thirty six children were rescued in raids in chad mali mauritania nizkor and senegal those arrested face prosecution for offenses including Human Trafficking forced labor and child exploitation. Police in Papua New Guinea have raided a former australian run prison camp on man a silent and forcibly removed about sixty refugees the facility was closed three weeks ago and power and Water Supplies were cut but more than three hundred refugees refused to leave and have continued protesting inside and thomas has more now from an assignment. The police came in early in the morning more than three weeks after the former australian run prison and its power and water supply cut off refugees who are refusing to leave say they were peacefully resisting but the police hit them with sticks and stones after twenty three days surviving on rain water and small amounts of smuggled in food the refugees weakened by hunger say that at least two men collapsed or were knocked unconscious in the raid Police Seized mobile phones to stop the refugees posting more videos and photos the flow of information became a trickle one refugee managed to speak to aljazeera before his boat was confiscated. Immigration law. Only short for. Opera would you. Be gracious not. For me. Everything about sixty refugees were loaded onto buses and taken away aljazeera filmed them as they sped along the road into town refugees shouted help to us from an open window. A delegation from International Humanitarian organizations who are visiting man a silent were promised access to see conditions in the former prison on thursday following the raid. They were told their visit was off there is the thing to so close and here am i later of Civil Society kind of thing getting in and from a democratic nation under the rule of law who for thirty years gone to lots of disasters and humanitarian situations and im not allowed to visit we were told to though there was no way wed be allowed past the checkpoint on the way to the prison. The men taken out brought here to lauren go the main town on the island then your accommodation is near and australias government says its ready for them and they should have moved in weeks ago but ive seen some of the accommodation and the still heavy machinery working on it and we tried to film a new home from a nearby road so private security contracts stopped us this is the accommodation of the refugees are moving say the Australian Government says its ready to go. But is that because there are trucks there its clearly still being worked on but the state of the new camp isnt the major issue for the refugees our protest our resistance is. The main reason is because our freedom we want our freedom we didnt come from. Prison for they fear being dumped what they see is merely an alternative jail still on a Remote Island and the Australian Government takes no responsibility for it at all Andrew Thomas al jazeera on my side and when you get it. Or policies of Holding Migrants in Detention Centers are not unique to australia nearly twenty thousand refugees are held in camps in libya as part of a deal struck with the e. U. The un says conditions in the camps are inhumane the u. K. Holds thousands of migrants in its own Detention Centers most of them Asylum Seekers but theres no limit on how long people can be held there for and the us has the largest migrant the tensions. Them in the world more than forty four thousand refugees were detained there last year which a Un Human Rights Panel has called a violation of International Law or mariette graw is a Senior Researcher of the global the tension project she joins us over skype from the southeast the france bought and thank you so much for joining us here on aljazeera i gave you a couple examples right there libya the u. K. The u. S. Just how widespread around the world is the use of the Pension Centers the use of the pensions centers has been spreading. Princeton soon the u. S. More than four hundred south and the danger every year and weve seen a spread especially on the birth rate for west states for instance and this is often not expand the lines they are so the European Union has been pressing on sort of extended maple and even i know on structure in place of detention for instance in the ukraine or you. And yes the you and you have been there and. The tension. For india and this is rich you know growth in certain in western states but we also see that its what he sees. For instance you mentioned. You know i mean yeah but. Toning it back. Up again. Has been. Runs on indonesia financed through the. Refurbishment and then stand up then to make a. In your report you mentioned that the Tension Centers should not play a role in International Efforts to address migration and refugee challenges unfortunately the reality that were seeing on the ground whether its europe and libya or the us is that they are indeed used for that so what else could be done to make them i guess a more humane. Well there is a Legal Framework. That regulates pension for and now its based on that. So why is. It about states that this. Can extend our rigs i dont there are eight states havent the national insurance. Or the National Human rights. So that the Legal Framework that regulates the pension pension is. Is that it should or should not be. It should be necessary and proportional as. You should you. Expect and then. Detainees back mike pence back to that and. There is there also there is also very. Recently that they know though that children should not be in detention. Status this is when i think. They are. Lawyers or need this is very important. And u. N. H. C. R. You know. They. Receive complaints and public hearing or. Then in the. End very hard. Weve seen with a suppose there is no. There is in many. Desperate. They have been to. Be mentioned we are. Over. That also and it. End. Marietta grunge from the global detention project were going to have to leave it there madam thank you for sharing your expertise with us and. With libya as were mentioning is one of the main transit countries for migrants and refugees trying to reach europe many who are herded onto boats never make it across the mediterranean instead theyre picked up and returned to libya but most of the what he reports from at the Tension Center in tripoli. These migrants were rescued by libyas coast guard in the mediterranean and brought here to this Detention Center in the libyan capital tripoli now they are from several african countries and they say they have fled war poverty and unemployment in their countries some of them say they have nothing at all to live on in their own countries they have taken a tough journey through the desert and they have paid people smugglers to get to libya to try to cross the mediterranean to europe authorities here say that these migrants add more pressure to the already troubled local economy the migrants are being taken care of by authorities here they also have to go through medical check and the International Organization for migration helps deporting those who want a voluntary return to their countries with security and financial collapse in libya Human Trafficking and smuggling have become a groom trade not only african migrants who risk their life but also many libya locals hate people smugglers to get to europe and through the mediterranean despite european efforts to monitor the mediterranean this crisis does not seem to be ending any soon until order and stability prevail in libya. Much more to come on this news hour from london including bangladesh in myanmar agree on a deal to bring patriae refugees but on the ground there is skepticism. Zimbabwes stock market has lost six billion dollars in a week can a new president rescue the ailing economy. Im little wellings with a small involved squad preparing for a against england here in london. Bankrupt but theres more to the story than not. Thank you maam our in bangladesh have signed a deal for the repatriation of range of refugees there said it will begin within two months but its not clear how many refugees would actually be allowed to return home since august more than six hundred thousand ranger have fled the military crackdown in myanmar many are concerned about how the deal will affect them scott hietala reports now from the young girl. After days of negotiating bangladeshs foreign minister Abdul Hasan Mahmud Ali and myanmar leader on song suchi reach an agreement on a repatriation plan for the ranger who fled Rakhine State over the last three months the memo of understanding was signed in a foreign minister Level Working Group created as the leaders reached agreement some of the hundreds of thousands of or hindu refugees who fled the violence spoke of their concern about how the repatriation will work. I dont think we did they discriminate against us because we are muslim and rango if they accept us as running is and give us full citizenship and allow us to live in peace and harmony then we will consider returning obviously the place who have really suffered they have committed so many atrocities against us killed many of my family members been to hymes and taken our land if they give us equal rights citizenship and security then we will consider going back added pressure on myanmar to move forward with the ranger crisis coming from washington a week after his visit to the country u. S. Secretary of state Rex Tillerson called the Army Crackdown in rakhine ethnic cleansing thats the first time the troubled ministration has used that description in his first visit to the capital neighbored or last week to listen call the events in rakhine as just horrific he also said an impartial independent investigation is needed. Russias ambassador to me on maher says the ethnic cleansing label is unhelpful and an independent investigation is not acceptable for me and more so many young gone agree but im waiting on you when you know in my opinion the statement by the u. S. Secretary of state is one sided hes meddling in our countrys affairs. Even though a repatriation agreement has been reached its not clear how quickly the refugees were turned to myanmar not to mention of theyll be going back to the villages they were a victim from or even if many villages which were left in flames still exist its not hard to aljazeera yangon.
