not enough. i can see you home from people who are suffering and we have to say today. you probably don't have enough capacity for improvement but you just mourn the government to promise us and we can have a safety and. i mean that the safety for. syrian government forces have captured the town of sokoban province it's a strategically important part of the offensive on the last rebel held areas of the country the fall of socket nearby highways could pave the way for a government offensive on the part of provinces capital and it's widely feared an assault on the city will worsen an already serious humanitarian crisis that's going to set in kosovo glue issues inside syria however that's not far from the turkish border and saying that there are turkish reinforcement positions in. the advance being made by the syrian government what is turkey saying it's going to do. well there in turkey sais turkey it took its military posts are going to remain there and turkey will keep reinforcing those military force in hands to strengthen the capacity of the tripos it currently after the syrian government managed to regain control over the territories down below the m 4 an m 5 highway and back up beginning from early this morning jointly 9 turkish military posts are now in the areas that are under control of the syrian government for now we are hearing that they are safe but just a couple of days ago at night. he was hit but was hit by the syrian government so the safety and security of the turkish military post are questionable but according to turkey's for instance add on who announced the need. strategy in there a couple of days ago at the turkish military post that were in mission of observer observing a possible violations of the this collation zone can can transform into combat forces so our don basically says that if we are attacked we will we are going to be retaliating and for the opposition for the syrian government and for the for turkey that is the current taking. is actually the psychological barrier when the syrian government advance towards the racket a turkish government turkish military took a step and took necessary measures that basically tried to say that if you pass the north and from m 4 and 5 highways if you pass this limit so back of may need it's going to be me turkish military that you are going to get in war with basically a fight with it's not the syrian opposition that's why it has been very tense and on the ground it is very tense and the most important thing to humanitarian situation is very bad inside right now as the displacements continue and there are there aren't enough space left for for disability is to reside here so you can i can say that it's both attend it's both a humanitarian tension and military tension on the ground russian delegation is coming to the turkish capital ankara tomorrow will be meeting with the turkish counterpart so it is it will be very important what they're going to decide but for now it is stance and turkey as want to retaliate in case of and attacks by the syrian government ok and i'm kosovo thank you very much. now the u.s. says it's killed the leader of al-qaeda and the arabian peninsula during a military operation in yemen last month president donald trump says customary me was trying to organize on the inspire attacks against americans there has been no confirmation of the killing from al-qaeda and the gallagher has more from washington. the confirmation of this al qaeda leader's death is just emerging but the strike itself took place last month at the cia and american intelligence officials have been very carefully after previous strikes proved that their targets actually survived them so they were careful to check whether this is actually happened but al really is a significant target for the u.s. authorities he's one of the few al qaeda leaders predates the attacks of september the 11th he trained at camps in afghanistan before going back home to yemen where he was in prison for 5 years for plotting to attack the u.s. ambassador there he actually broke out of jail in 2006 is thought to be behind the attack on the u.s. embassy and is a significant target for the u.s. authorities so we do now have confirmation that the 41 year old was killed in these attacks in this drone strike in fact it was a $10000000.00 reward out for him and the u.s. state department says that al qaeda has now been significantly weakened by this strike meaning that both americans and allies on now safe are upon is death. still ahead on

times using language that was derogatory and profane. it was all but. he tried to coerce a now into helping him cheat truck took a bit congressman adam schiff who led the inquiry into whether trump

dedication is self-evident and so are her frustrations so a child presenting today with mental health issues that i feel require specialist intervention if i put them on a waiting list they might be seen in 4 years time which is just that's not a service and 2014 nearly 359000 patients were on the public waiting list to see a consultant by 2017 the number had risen above half a 1000000 for the 1st time and in 2019 it had grown to more than 553000. to tackle those relentless increases in the waiting lists the irish government is throwing millions every year of public money into buying private health care in 2019 it was the equivalent of 82000000 dollars and this year it's going to be closer to $110000000.00 and still the waiting lists go up having private health insurance meant
