This is the 1st step in the 1st stage maybe. In an effort by the government to regain control of the territories along with him 5 road between. And. I think the next target will be moderate to normal. The opposition didnt just lose. Rebel fighters had little choice but to leave towns further south in the northern hama countryside they would have risked being besieged if they didnt move further north the opposition was hoping the presence of a turkish observation post in the area would stop the government advance but it tempted by the Turkish Military to reinforce that position failed when an airstrike launched by a syrian or russian warplane on monday prevented it from reaching its destination. The Syrian Government and its allies have been advancing in the past 2 weeks they have now taken more territory than they did in the 1st 3 months of their military campaign its not clear if the rebels had been subjected to heavy fire power are exhausted or if the army is using better tactics like concentrating the strikes close to the front lines and on rebel supply routes but the relentless airstrikes and partment continue to force people into displacement in recent days more than 25000 are believed to have moved north closer to the border with turkey war monitors and activists say over 700000 syrians are homeless since the military escalation began in late april of. The past few days witnessed on president the bombardment that is why the people who didnt leave during the 1st months of the offensive back everything and left most of them believe that houses will either be fully destroyed or taken over by the regime.

The u. N. Security council has met for a special session on the crisis facing the middle east head of the meeting the u. S. Special representative for iran warned the Iran Nuclear Deal hadnt provided stability to the region what was promised in the Iran Nuclear Deal that the deal would moderate irans behavior that it would contribute to Regional Peace and stability has not happened in fact quite the opposite we have seen the Iran Nuclear Deal come at the expense of peace and stability in the middle east because iran spent the sanctions relief. On its Missile Program and on its proxies the u. N. Is also warning the conflict in yemen is at a critical point she habitants he has more from the United Nations or a great deal of change since Martin Griffiths last briefed the Security Council all him the situation in yemen notably the takeover of the southern port city of mumbai southern separatists griffiths condemned that movie said talks that have been proposed by saudi arabia in jeddah to take place as quickly as possible the sudden separatists have agreed to those talks the Yemeni Government however has said in the past that they want a full withdrawal of Southern Forces from them before those talks can take place however the Yemeni Government did welcome the prospect of the talks at least at the u. N. Security council meanwhile the graphic says for the future of yemen these talks have to happen as quickly as possible we are facing a crucial moment in the destination of this conflict in yemen as we have seen in other than and are beyond questions regarding yemens future being posed more forcefully than before the fragmentation of yemen is becoming a stronger and more pressing threat. This of course makes our efforts in the yemeni Peace Process more urgent than ever but there is no time to lose the stakes are becoming too high for the future of yemen the yemeni people and indeed the wider region also briefing the un Security Council uns assistant secretary for humanitarian affairs she once again said that the humanitarian Assistance Program of the un is only 34 percent funded the main problem there is saudi arabia and the u. A. E. Not stumping up the money that theyve promised and this could have really dire consequences in the next few days she said she said water and sanitation programs will be stopped in 4 governorates and 300000 people are extreme risk of cholera as a result italys Prime Minister just epic content has announced hell be stepping down after weeks of tension with these right Wing Coalition partner can take blame the leader of the far right league party methane ourselves the need for sparking the crisis hes warning the Political Uncertainty will harm if the economy. Like vision the. Motion of defiance is forced us to set a calendar for new elections there were also statements in these last days and in these last weeks that have forced me to put an end to this government experience. As the latest from rome. That he would be stepping down from the role of Prime Minister in his speech he laid the blame firmly at the feet of one of the deputy Prime Ministers met. The leader of the far right on to migrant lead part he said that their salvini had to straighten this clinical crisis for personal gain and for an opportunity for his party to try and make a power grab however you responded in kind that he saw himself and i was being a free man who was not afraid of being judged by the italian people and if they were to be a snap election coming up shortly he did use me very much the rhetoric that hes conducted at rallies reaching out very emotive language saying that he was speaking for the italian people but there was little in the way of any pragmatic solution to this crisis now. Goes to see the president later on this evening there was no guarantee that he might not have his resignation rejected he could be asked by president to form another government with a Different Party but with different parties involved i. E. 5 star and maybe the Opposition Democratic Party or it could revert back to the same formula where its the 5 Star Movement again with the party but there has been so much political wrangling and bad blood between the 2 parties and the numbers are still very much in the favor in the parliament of the 5 star but it is still very difficult to see how exactly the impasse that has been caused by my peers will find a way of resolving itself in the next few days. Paula. Business leaders niland have rejected britains calls to renegotiate londons exit from the e. U. The u. K. s Prime MinisterBoris Johnson has insisted a new way must be found to keep the irish border open but he still cant say what the plan might be lawrence lee reports from the irish border. Challenge to have breakfast at a hotel outside dublin on the Small Business owners are being taught how to fill out piles of customs papers it means a border going up across ireland theyll have to and its an expense many can barely afford this is what people mean when they say the Irish Economy could suffer because of brick says do business is no do you know what the British Governments plan is. I dont i dont see why the commentator said the start of this whole process dont watch the inches watch the miles so if youre trying to think if you try to follow bragg said step by step be incredibly frustrating because its not a large most people are familiar with. Ever since he became Prime MinisterBoris Johnson has said the u. K. Will leave the e. U. Before november in his letter to the European Union he also insists a new deal can and must be found to free his country from being stuck in a Customs Union because its been rejected by the British Parliament but neither here nor in brussels to they believe him weve no idea how old movie the latter didnt go into much detail but he keeps referring once again to the socalled alternative arrangements the problem with these alternative arrangements is they dont exist none have been given to us as an example in operation anywhere in the world the havent been laid out properly so thats why we really do need the box on germs policy. The sharp end of all this is in irish border towns like dundalk where Free Movement in and out of the u. K. Is crucial to their livelihoods there is no overstating the anger they holds towards the British Government so the one thing that weve learnt about irish history over the generations has been that britain gets bored and wanders off from the topic problems or rice and then its only when the problem that we can show up and we can bring them back into looking at it instead of looking at it in a camp situation where there isnt a security or anything its underlying the issue. So imagine a scenario in which this motorway crossing the border has customs posts and queues of traffic with all the contingent security risks to the place might not be far away the dread fear in our land is that any physical manifestation of a border could lead to this if the republicans attacking not only british but irish Customs Officials britain says its just scaremongering there will never be a border on the island of islands but in his letter to the European UnionBoris Johnson cannot say how he could guarantee is in the sense of dundalk a sculpture was erected after former u. S. President clinton helped finalize the good friday peace deal and addressed 800000 people. In celebration the sculpture is called dialogue and celebrates the art of compromise how times have changed enormously aljazeera on the irish border. Or dolphin lists is the Deputy Director of the think tank british influence joins us now from the capital london lets 1st of all start with some lines that you just dropping here statements by Boris Johnson the british Prime Minister saying the use being a bit negative but im sure well get there is this optimism well founded. Well its characteristic of Boris Johnsons approach for the last 3 years which is to say that if we believe something hard enough well get it without putting in any of the work required to achieve the outcome or paying any attention to our negotiating partners are saying hes not looking at ease interests hes not thinking about how they might be able to see a process he simply say we want to get rid the backstop that for the buck so it must be got rid of its as though he cant conceive of anyone else having a position different from his own why is Boris Johnson not putting forward any new proposal for the e. U. To consider do you think. Because there arent any and he must know that there are 2 there are 2 lines of thinking about what johnsons done in this letter to donald tusk the 1st is that he really does believe that by sheer force of his alleged charisma the e. U. Will somehow cave in to all his demands even though theyve said they wouldnt do that the 2nd fieri is that he doesnt really want to have a renegotiation of the great city of the tool he simply wants to line up a new deal scenario which he can then blame on the e. U. And the easy intransigence because theyre not going to budge when the buck stop now i think that its more likely that he believes the e. U. Will cave at the last minute because i dont believe that johnson wants to be blamed alternately for an ideal scenario which will cause such chaos in his own country or if we look at this from the e. U. s perspective surely theyve got their eye on the British Parliamentary reconvening on september the 3rd right so in a sense do they have any incentive to do anything right now you know before Parliament Comes back into the picture. Does parliament have an incentive know if theres legally is or does the i mean the e. U. Must know that Jeremy Corbin has plans to bring down this government if you were the e. U. You know would you be thinking let me wait and see what happens on september the 3rd. The fundamental issue is that the e. U. Has no incentive to do anything the e. U. Primary objective is to maintain its own political integrity if the e. U. Were to give way to Boris Johnson when he didnt give way to his predecessor theresa may and screw up the backstop even to a just the backstop that would fundamentally compromise their integrity because what they would be doing is they would be throwing our islands under the blasts in favor of a member state that was actually leaving and theres no love lost between Boris Johnson the e. U. So it fatally weaken the e. U. To do that i would also tell not just oil and but all the small countries of the e. U. That fundamentally when push comes to shove theyre interesting count and not to be face or to the east long term objectives so theyre not going to budge so of course they know that parliament can make a move to stop new deal and the idea that parliament should tie its hands so the e. U. Will somehow move is a because that is simply giving away part of its leverage in the hope that the e. U. Wont excise its own leverage sounds like a crash out.
