What happened at least this is what the author of hes believe happened is that the perpetrator drove his car to the 1st of 2 bars to places where members of the Kurdish Community were known we know to frequent these 2 places the shisha bars found a way into the bar and then opened fire with a weapon which he held legally this was a man who had a sporting license to hunt so he used the weapon he had legally to fire indiscriminately in the 1st of these shisha bars made his way out of the 1st venue back to his car drove to a different part of the town and then did the same thing again initiation again in a place which was known to be frequented by members of the Kurdish Community but confined discriminately killed people there back to his car and then drove home and then at some point in the intervening time use the weapon to kill his 72 year old mother and then eventually to take his own life the lines of inquiry that were foreigners are exploring particularly revolve around the far right because on his website on his home page they found evidence which they believe points to him having a far right motive to have been posting things on social media which all point in that direction turkeys military has shelled Syrian Government positions in the northwestern city of sirte a key but now the government captured that city from rebels 2 weeks ago part of a push to retake the last rebel held area the turkish president wretch up Tayyip Erdogan has issued an ultimatum for Syrian Forces to pull out or will face retaliation al jazeera joins us live now from turkey close to the Syrian Border hashim whats the latest on the military aspect of this. Well the military operation is still underway activists operating in the area say that the Syrian Rebels backed by turkey have managed to move into the town of a nailer which has been captured by the syrian army about 2 weeks ago and that fighting has intensified brown said arcade where the rebels are insisting they want to take it back now the advance of the rebels was only made possible with the massive pounding of Government Forces positions by the turkish artillery. A few hours ago the momentum the rebels say is now in their favor and they say they are confident they will be able to reverse the gains made by the. Made by the Syrian Government over the last 2 months now were getting reports that the syrian army is also launching air strikes against rebel positions in different parts of it live and through areas of aleppo and it seems that this is further intensifying raising concerns about further instability in that part of syria from the turkish perspective this could be an indication that they are now willing to move ahead with their plan b. Which is basically intervening militarily in syria they gave a final warning yesterday we heard president saying this is going to be my final warning to the Syrian Government to pull back from behind Turkish Military outposts and the that does not happen then we will take the issue into our own hands however we dont know at this particular stage whether this. Is it comprehensive military operation that would in clude many turkish soldiers on the ground to push the syrian army from all those areas and hashim do you get the feeling when you are that this is having a greater impact still if thats possible on those tens of thousands of people whove been isolated in that area who want some place to go but they seem to be getting squeezed even more now this is definitely going to further exacerbate the the plight of the hundreds of thousands of internally displaced syrians looking for safe shelter it is definitely going to hinder the movement of International Aid agencies who have been asked to move as fast as possible to deliver aid food stoves dance equipment to the hundreds of thousands of people stranded on the border with turkey ive been in touch with many people in aleppo and italy and they say basically that they are waiting for the International Community to take action yesterday of the. U. N. The United Nations and nations envoy to syria get pederson and the United Nations deputy secretary for humanitarian affairs local both insisted on the need on implementing an immediate cease fire nationwide for humanitarian relief workers to be able to move freely on the ground but i think this is going to be extremely delicate because most of their areas affected and are now basically considered military zones because the fighting is intensifying in a huge area now in live and also rural parts of. Thanks very much. David swanson is the original spokesman for the Syrian Crisis at the u. N. Humanitarian office and goes on to europe and Southern Turkey he says relief workers have been completely overwhelmed. The situation on the ground is absolutely desperate and we are calling on the part of the u. N. In the broader humanitarian community who are immediate cease fire to mitigate the suffering of the people the northwest area today and we are trying our best to provide relief but we are completely overwhelmed the relief effort is fully underway but it didnt need credibly challenging Work Environment many of the people that we were working we worked with thousands of aid workers on the ground but many of these syrian it workers we have been working with they themselves have been caught up in the violence and they themselves have been displaced that be said we continue to breed assistance through to cross border operation have turkey this month alone in the month of february with 601 by trucks have passed into border crossings turkey into syria providing vital lifesaving assistance to more than 1200000 people in need the people of syria have suffered way too long and the situation on the ground is becoming increasingly desperate we have bitter cold temperatures we have women and children walking at night in nothing but their bare clothes the situation couldnt be any worse on the ground we can only hope that all parties to the conflict bring about end to this violence we move on to other top stories the police say the sixers Prime Minister will be charged with the murder of his a strange wife now after the announcement thomas to bombing told the media that he will resign at the end of july anyway but said old age was the reason he was shots near home in 2017 when hes current wife is also facing charges related to the killing which chief has denied for me to villa as our correspondent joining us live from johannesburg this is a complex one for me to just break down the basic charges for us. Well at this point peter police say that theyre focusing on 2 charges murder and also attempted murder because at the time of. Barneys death shooting home as you mentioned she was traveling with a friend who was injured in that shooting she is now in hiding in south africa saying that she fears for her life in a suit just given how big the scase is really for the country and the people involved given their prominence now the latest charges that will be laid will be against thomas to barney and this really is unprecedented in that a sitting Prime Minister will face these charges we also expect that once he appears in court he may also appear in parliament if hes given bail to confirm his resignation at the end of july now what is also quite interesting is in the address given over state radio in a suit to the Prime Minister said that it would be old age thats the reason for his retirement he hasnt so much focused on it being a resignation due to the pressure that hes faced and at no point did he mention the charges he will be facing as well as the charges that have been laid against his wife and just what a scandal this is all a suit to his also urged that there be a process in the country that allows for transition who ever takes his place to be responsible and take into consideration the unity of the country but this is a crime that goes back 2 years these is a strange to wife was killed and this is a case for people in lawsuit to where there is they are looking for some sort of justice and closure its also a case of people are split because it does have the support but its also coming from a party that is full of tension because there are people who support him and those who say he should face the full might of the law so if he does decide to come the end of july does that mean there will be an election and does that election then turn into a referendum on him all it actually be an election. The parliament in a city is supposed to convene on friday just as thomas a body will face those murder charges and when we spoke to members of the old pursuits of convention this is the ruling party the governing party in lawsuit 2 from which thomas to barney the party that he leads they had said that they would push for a motion of no confidence if he did not step down now that he will face charges it becomes a bit more complicated in that they have a sitting head of state a sitting Prime Minister who faces such enormous charges and so its not certain if you have the time until july to stay in office the all but suit to convention is due to name a successor perhaps who could step in if they do manage to get thomas to vonnie out of office ahead of july 31st but given what weve heard from members of that governing party theyre not happy with the Prime Minister and we dont know if theyll be that patience to keep him in power keep him in office until then now prior to these charges the a. B. C. Party had also said that they had stripped him of his political power has not been able to make political decisions unilaterally instead thats now gone to the the most Important Committee within that party because they just dont trust the Prime Minister they also say that they believe that his wife. Bonnie who also faces charges that shes been controlling the Prime Minister so they dont believe that hes been capable of running the country and for him thats just maybe the nail in the coffin for me thanks very much. Plenty more still to come for you here on the news hour including education is abandoning the impact of the libyan conflict on children. Michael bloomberg under attack as the former mayor of new york makes his very 1st appearance in the democratic president ial debates. Always i can say i support a 500 percent. All go to war.

We have now a huge increase today in south korea 53 new cases which means we now have more than 100 confirmed cases in south korea northeast asia it seems japan and south korea now very much in the front line of this particular virus now the focus on thursday has been on the city of daegu in southeast korea that is where the bulk of these new infections have occurred and the focus has been very much on a religious group there because it seems that a 61 year old woman who was a worshipper with this group became infected a week ago that was confirmed but she had also been in contact with more than 166 other people and of course now there is a an urgent attempt being made to find all those people the chief been in contact with the mare of daegu sent out a real desperate plea earlier on thursday evening saying that he was very worried that local hospitals would not be able to cope if this indeed turned out to be a widespread outbreak so hes appealing to the central get to the main government in seoul to provide as much medical aid as they can and quickly so the focus in daegu is going to be containment theres also concern that it spread to surrounding areas of this city with a population of about 2 and a half 1000000. Well in japan theres been mixed reaction to have your authority as have dealt with the quarantined cruise ship there bright reports now from the port of yokohama. Their quarantine behind them passengers from the diamond princess have been disembarking in the hundreds. Many of them taken by bus to the middle of yokohama with mixed emotions about their shared ordeal cardew mother every day i would worry that i was going to test positive. Political movement when the number of people getting infected spiked we knew they were sick in your infections so i was afraid to leave my cabin and then i couldnt and as i knew the crew members did very well so i was grateful to them. The passengers were then allowed to continue their Journeys Home sharing public transport with fellow japanese who have mixed emotions of their own causes your good world i feel so sorry for them its a good idea to release them theyre going to get sick theyre going to get what Foreign Countries say their quarantine the people for a certain time so i want to plan to do the same. The confirmed deaths of 2 elderly passengers have raised concerns for those still on board and for foreign governments who are still arranging to fly home their citizens but insisting they undergo further quarantine still japan is standing by its decision to end the quarantine of the cruise ship you were in to you of us are doing the ship does not compare to a hospital we are working there with temporary measures we have a basic standard but various issues there that pointed out every day we keep correcting these issues on a daily basis with cases being reported across japan this outbreak is causing increased disruption Public Events have been scaled back or canceled including an annual Birthday Celebration for the emperor and there are growing fears if this goes on about the possible impact on the upcoming summer olympics in tokyo. A passing cruise liner sounds its horn in a show of support for the diamond princess for japan finally resolving this crisis is a priority i dont know as the world is watching but pride aljazeera yokohama japan will stay with us story millett Mary Louise Mclaws is a World Health Organization advisor and a professor of epidemiology at the university of New South Wales she says she has concerns about the way the diamond princess is being quarantined at the last meeting that we had. Face to face meeting for the roadmap for the current virus we were minded to always include thinks about anything or who do the the epidemiology the Infection Control back centered center and what concerns me is that as an epidemiologist we really value quarantining its a very effective method of trying to put hold to an outbreak however it has to be done very ethically and very safely and you dont put a lot of susceptible people together and hope that theyre going to remain. An infected without an awful lot of education of those the susceptible and also with very very rigorous cleaning of high touch areas so i am concerned about why one in 6 as you quarter would have acquired. Coded 19 while they were under quarantine now some of them may have been incubating before just before they were quarantined however a lot of them may not have been so really we really cant put people in quarantine unless we keep them safe. The United Nations has accused south sudans warring parties of deliberately starving its people a new report says politicians have been quote oblivious to the suffering of millions of civilians the country slid into crisis when president salva kiir accused his former deputy rick machar of trying attempting a coup tens of thousands of people have been killed and millions were displaced as a result of the conflict.

That aljazeera tripoli. Turning our attention to the states because the former mayor of new york Michael Bloomberg has come under attack from democratic rivals in the debate just days ahead of the caucus in the vada as a late entry into the race to take on donald trump in november the n. B. C. News debate was being the 1st appearance reynolds has more. Mike bloomberg came under fire from the start Elizabeth Warren blasted the former new york mayor over his past the such a mystic comments a billionaire who calls women fat broads and horse taste lesbians and no im not talking about donald trump im talking about mayor Bloomberg Warren also compared bloomberg to President Donald Trump democrats take a huge risk if we just substitute one arrogant billionaire for another bloomberg defended himself as the candidate best able to defeat trump im a new yorker i know how to take on an arab can con man like donald trump said neither front runner Bernie Sanders nor bloomberg could be most americans dont see where they fit if theyve got to choose between a socialist who thinks that capitalism is the root of all evil and a billionaire who thinks that money ought to be the root of all power sanders and joe biden attacked bloomberg controversy oh please sing policy as new york mayor which many believe unfairly targeted young men of color mr bloomberg had policies in new york city of stop and frisk which went after africanamerican and latino people in an outrageous way the policy was a port bloomberg defended stop and frisk it got out of control and when we discovered i discovered that we were doing many many too many stop and frisks we cut 95 percent of it. And ive sat down with a bunch of africanamerican clergy and Business People to talk about this bloomberg was questioned about widely quoted massage in his stick and sexist remarks he made as a businessman he should have been prepared for the question but he deflected it i am very proud of the fact that about 2 weeks ago we were awarded we were voted the most for fat that the best place to work 2nd best play. In america we are not going to be donald trump with a man who has who knows how many nondisclosure agreements and the drip drip drip of stories of women saying they have been harassed and discriminated. Against but bloomberg wasnt the only one under attack amy closer charcot rattled when booted judge chided her for being unable to state the name of the president of mexico in an interview with let tina reporters are you trying to say that im down the are you mocking me here keep saying these a trivial i made an error people sometimes forget names bloomberg tried to use his business experience to his advantage perhaps not the best strategy for appealing to democrats im the only one here and i think the 7 start of the business is that fair you know what mr bloomberg was and you made all that money maybe your work has played some role in that as well it was the hardest punching debate by far bloomberg took a beating sanders did nothing to hurt his position as front runner while biden continued to fade warren had a strong showing but close with shar lost her cool under questioning from buddhist gedge now the race will continue with a caucus here in nevada on saturday rob Reynolds Al Jazeera Las vegas well Brendan Oconnor is an associate professor of u. S. Politics at the university of sydney he says the fact mr bloomberg was the focus of most of the attacks shows he is a strong contender. And he sent his didnt get attacked in the wider front running normally would because bloomberg was the new guy on the stage he looked a little bit very flat footed under attack sends in some ways therefore had an easy in writing might have been maj and he got his usual line about the one percent and the wealthy running america and he had a man at the other end of the stage who showed that he could apply often my people and it was a good night with Bernie Sanders but in general it was a very tough to buy showing the desperation i think of a number of candidates lisbeth larn is really on the right she didnt do very well in New Hampshire. Campaign as being flattering and i think she really wanted to be front and center of that debate and make sure she made some very strong and hard hitting points and it reminded i think many of us of the Elizabeth Warren who took on the heads of wall street the heads of American Banking in 2009 after the great financial sort of crisis in the United States and that was really back in action a much more feisty candidate than wed seen in the previous to by particularly New Hampshire where she was unusually subjected. Change the foot to the weather here in and around the Arabian Peninsula with richard thanks very much peter yes weve had a change in the weather across our region of the last few hours is to do with this air of low pressure focusing on its impacts across iran and the reich previously but its also driving further towards the southeast in the cold front is coming down across iraq the implant has quite a subtle feature but is neverless bringing about an interesting change in weather conditions so there just for money there is a list snow across it run up across as i cross mountains but at lower levels some showers affecting the gulf coast of saudi arabia here in doha and 29 hours riyadh zorra seeing temperatures drop less focus on the temperatures put an overlay on the sea of red at just 22. 00 it has been up a 30 degrees 29 percent run this forecast through the northwest the wind brings about a significant change both dubai temperatures dropping by several degrees and that continues to head on through into saturday about stage the winds across saudi arabia begin to turn from the south coming up through the warm Empty Quarter and so temperatures in riyadh up to 27 degrees rising to 30 degrees as we head on through the following 24 hours meanwhile an Early Warning over an area of low pressure developing over eastern parts of turkey in particular so were going to see some very heavy snowfall developing here and thats really going to affect southern parts of turkey up over the mountains and probably extending into parts of syria as we head in through the lots of parts of the weekends peter.

South korea has reported its 1st deaths from the corona virus meanwhile the japanese government is defending its handling of the outbreak onboard the diamond princess cruise ship 2 passengers who died. Campaigning has officially ended in iran ahead of fridays parliamentary elections thousands of candidates have been disqualified from running including dozens of members of the outgoing parliaments a setback reports now from tehran. Who to vote for among the sea of candidates or whether to vote at all this seems to be the choice that nearly 58000000. 00 eligible voters face and the political establishment is edging iranians to come out and cast their ballots so a supreme leaders televised speech telling people its their religious duty to vote ah and despite the disqualification of many of his reformist allies president Hassan Rouhani has echoed a similar message has my boy we can defeat the us with our solidarity and power high turnout on election day will make. The u. S. Angry and upset low turnout would make them happy but with fears that turnout will be lower than usual other words enough to convince the iranians that. Yes certainly ive been booked i believe vote for someone who i know and have done some research to see if theyre an accountable person or not to society or some problems which must be fixed. As a reunion you a religious duty is recommend us to participate and make appropriate decisions about our country i vote so we can choose a representative who can reflect the people in the parliament. In a cafe in north to herat they see little point in taking part. Im not putting what is the point on each other. Because of everything is hard work has grown up a car costs more how do we get by no one is our descendants issues. The iranian economy has struggled under u. S. Sanctions since donald trump pulled out the nuclear deal in 2018. Inflation for last year was nearly 40 percent. So thats a little many dont have enough money to buy fresh fruit they just buy damaged stale fruits some even steel the purchasing power has dropped. Just in the last 2 weeks the price of meat has increased some people just end up eating less meat because they cant afford it. These concerns seem to have been reflected in the candidates campaigns despite talk of the fact posed by the u. S. The sanctions and potential conflict its the bread and butter issues that seem to be of major concern to voters here the state of the economy the rising cost of living and delivering meaningful change regardless of which political faction wins a majority of seats they will have to address the economic concerns of the people but with limited options at their disposal. Al jazeera the front. Well as we were just hearing there in a story there are concerns that there will be a low turnout from tehran Bernard Smith explain what that could mean. The election is something of a referendum on the governments popularity iran is under intense International Pressure and theres a risk of conflict with the u. S. Over the Nuclear Standoff so it wants to show that its got Popular Support and is hoping for at least 50 percent turnout in previous elections that about 6060 percent turnout so they want at least 50 anything less than that could be embarrassing and a low turnout could also mean more hardliners being elected to parliament because its their supporters who come out to vote the ones at risk of the pro reform candidates those that have been allowed to stand their supporters like everybody else are angry about the collapsing economy but theyre also angry at the shooting down of the ukrainian passenger jet and the crackdown on protests nationwide protests last november when there were reports unconfirmed by the government that several 100 people were killed and some thousands injured lets talk to me hes a Senior Research fellow at the center for middle east to teach it studies he joins us live from tehran welcome to the news hour so all the main high profile candidates that the outside world knows about are calling for a turnout theyre calling for a high turnout but is there a builtin factor or more of a turnout anyway following the killing of the money. Well the city or officials in the country they have been calling people to go to vote but it seems that as a result of the Economic Hardship in the country which resulted into protests in mid november as well as the plane crash would say that they can now make hardship as well as social trast. Below to the social trust on elites have is likely to cause a kind of decrease in the turnout in the election tomorrow here in tehran but the assassination of the us and soleimani is impact can be seen in a way that it can be relative as well as i would say that it will impact the voters who they are going to vote so in a comparison to the previous elections i think its going to be somehow lesser turnout here in the cutty if the conservatives do well what does that do to mr rouhani because in theory there is a president ial election a year away now. Well normally when the turnout is lower the conservatives have higher chance to win the parliament or other offices because they have some lawyers to go to the ballot boxes that the times that the others dont so they are high of chances to win and if parliament becomes more conservative i think we have to be waiting less chance for direct negotiations with the United States we have to be seeing get more support for the region and policies of iran as well as in terms of diplomacy with your of are not expecting that much of change because both establishment as well as the reformists or the administration i think they are seeing this from a similar perspective and they are on the same page but. Iran is government i think he will be more on their pressure in his remaining why year and their bit more in office so. Conservative parliament will try to control Rouhani Administration as some of the conservative candidates have said. They will be all sides waiting for upcoming election which is a president ial election and that matters to great extent for conservatives for reformists as well as moderates because they think that executive branch many president has much more say on Foreign Policy as well as other issues in the country one recent opinion poll said 75 percent of the electorate were claiming they were not going to vote so in the context of that whoever does well at this election and also however that feeds into the president ial election whoever does well in the next 12 months cannot turn around the economy because clearly people are annoyed at the state of the economy but whoever does well cant turn the economy around because the economy is under pressure because of sanctions to do with the situation over the g. C. P. O. A going back to 2015. Its somehow difficult to predict at how many people will not go to the wars and how much the turnout will below her but its important to in terms of political legitimacy for the system as well as its will not put the government in a better position in dealing with Foreign Countries in its Foreign Policy but its important to remember that and thats a question of whether the system and the government will make any flexibilities approaching toward the president ial election in the country or not because if the issue of lower turnout happens to be a reputed of process that can be a warning to the government so they need to think about this in order to increase it and they need some flexibility is in terms of Economic Situation as well as some social issues whether that will happen or not thats the question yet because we have some remaining to till that point but if they cannot lets say company a this shortage that can be very alarming for them in the long garonne because thats a matter of political legitimacy. And some other issues in terms of the Foreign Policy issues are also play into this game as well and fighting against corruption domestically thats also another issue we have to be waiting to see that what can happen in relation with those issues in relation with the Foreign Policy as well as the dumbest the politics of the government in the time that remains till the president ial election in the country but they will be very much telling that what can you ranz future policy be ok we have to leave it there there in tehran thank you very much.
