Has more now from hunting in turkey near the border with syria. The death toll among the turkish soldiers in the province of the lip explains the level of anger among the senior members of the turkish government theres been a National Security meeting presided by president. For how to deal to whos the Communications Director said that the Turkish Military has started an operation targeting Syrian Government positions in northwestern. Those operations will continue talking now about a revenge the spokesperson of the ruling party said that from now onwards Syrian Government should it will be considered the enemy of the state of turkey now while you have this escalation this looks like a decides if moment a Pivotal Moment because the the the large number of turkish soldiers killed in a single day is definitely going to shape the future relation between turkey and russia other turkish government has been blaming russia for providing military assistance to Syrian Government and for undermining the chances to defuse tension to implement a cease fire and to push the Syrian Government behind the Demilitarized Zone it is definitely going also to shape the relationship between the turkish government and the Syrian Government the spokesperson of president s a spokesperson. Couldnt. Talks with the u. S. National security advisor the minister of Foreign Affairs were just all of spoke with the nato secretary general and there is this feeling. Here in turkey that they have somehow been betrayed abandoned by the nato by the International Community and by the in particular they say that the reason why we intervened in libya is slowly for the sake of the. Eventing the humanitarian situation to deteriorate from a turkish perspective they believe that the russians and the Syrian Government after arriving to push all the civilly is about 4000000. 00 civilians in province to cross into into turkey which already has about 4 almost 3700000 refugees in refugee camps on the border with syria so they believe that this is done on purpose d to further destabilize turkey and this explains why it took he has been saying while weve been doing this taking the initiative moving into to prevent the Syrian Government from pushing the rebel civilians into our country the International Community is silence and silent and i think we in the coming days we have to wait and see what will be the reaction of the International Community but at the same time what would be the reaction of turkey inside syria meanwhile the Syrian Government has launched a counter offensive to recapture the town of psyche been in the province it was taken by Turkish Backed rebels overnight to turkish soldiers were killed by a strike during that fight psyche was important and if we look at the map we can see why whoever controls the m. 4 m. 5 highways gains Critical Military and economic advantages the m 5 been particularly a leper with damascus in the south the growing readier is a controlled by the government the shrinking green rebel territory yellow in the north and west is controlled by the kurds aljazeera as im allowed saddam is in the outskirts of the city of santa came with me. And i love him for one of your about money that they yes we are exactly on the m 4 highway connecting aleppo we look back here this highway leads to the Meeting Point with the international empty 5 highway connecting aleppo and damascus sarika to cities the point where both the highways connect but. I mean soraya to our right was captured this morning by the armed opposition having seized control of the city the armed opposition is now in total control of both the strategic highways. However airstrikes are still carried out by both the russian and syrian regimes fighter jets targeting the city on its outskirts. Of the good. As you have just seen it was an air strike on the city the armed opposition who is now in control of sarek of city and both the highways say they killed a large number of the Regime Forces inside the city we can also see that plume of smoke as a result of the airstrike ideal bombardment has not stopped on the contrary to has intensified as i said earlier both the highways are now cut off by the armed opposition it is a big win and a massive advance for the opposition to seize control of soraya along with a number of its neighboring villages you know the u. N. Security council has met to discuss the worsening humanitarian situation in syria it was told of catastrophic consequences on the ground. As more from the United Nations.

Is beyond imagination it is not human to be tolerable. We dont know if children so traumatized they no longer speak. As humanitarian needs increase there are also growing calls for u. N. Secretary general Antonio Gutierrez to do more to help end the fighting something i put to his spokesman yesterday 9 members of the Security Council met with the secretary general and part of their message apparently was urging the secretary general to do all he can to get an immediate cease fire the secretary general did meet with the 9 members his goals as stated publicly and privately or really to very simple goals put a stop to the killing and make sure there is humanitarian access for those who need it the most meanwhile be a stone an ambassador to the u.

Witness time to love a backstage tale. On a 0. 0 s. Welcome back at the from out of our top stories here this out turkeys military is retaliating against Syrian Army Positions after 29. 00 of its soldiers were killed in a Syrian Government town strike it happened in syrias in the province where Turkish Forces have killed or captured more than 1700 soldiers with ties to the Syrian Government meanwhile ankara says it will no longer be able to stop syrian migrants trying to get to europe according to the Reuters News AgencyTurkish Police coast guards and Border Security have been ordered to allow syrian migrants to cross into europe either by land or sea. The Economic Impact on the coronavirus has seen the u. S. Is down johns index experiences worst one day drop in history all the major u. S. Indices are now on track for the steepest we declines since the 2008 Global Financial crisis. But now to our top story the escalating conflict in syria its fueling an already diet humanitarian crisis with many syrians stuck at the closed Turkish Border harding has more on the situation in. The United Nations says nearly a 1000000 people have been forced from their homes since december theyre trapped between heavy fighting and the closed border with turkey well. I swear to god if the army comes close to us here and we have pressured the people here in the camps from moderate must mean we all go into turkey even if they kill us we want to go to turkey and the turks should be prepared to welcome 5 to 6000000 people coming all at once. According to the u. N. More than half of the internally displaced are children and this winter has been unusually cold some infants are reported to have frozen to death or suffocated in tents with their parents as they all tried to keep warm this is the worst wave of displacement weve seen during the syrian conflict now with the harsh winter conditions in a clip we see people trapped i. And running out of ways to cope. In recent days russian back to syrian airstrikes have increased hospitals blood banks and schools have been destroyed turkish president recep tayyip or the one has not suggested that the border will be reopened. We are not going to take even a little step back in the ad lib we will push the syrian Regime Forces out of the areas that weve designated and let people return back to their houses many have lost their homes in the u. N. Estimates some families have been displaced 10 times those trying to flee across the border with turkey face a concrete wall topped with barbed wire. To move it out of the people are taking refuge in the turkish wall but why is the wall here is it to prevent families from entering their women and children their elderly people why dont they allow children in the main can stay here and fight but the children the women let them in. Many people like these are desperate to escape the fighting and if a safe passage is not created they will remain trapped leo harding aljazeera well lets talk to gemma bird shes a migration analyst and senior lecturer at the university of liverpool and joins us via skype from Liverpool Gemma so turkey says it can no longer stop Syrian Refugees from reaching europe how significant is this development and what is talking hoping to achieve. So i think the Current Situation in which tech you suggested that it will open the borders thought 72 hours suggests that were taking is trying to keep it he is to pressure. Take take he has been in discussions with nato as well but its just that they are looking for some sort of military potentially and information to be thinking about deflation and theyre also looking for support from you as well as i think that the initial suggestion is that this is about something russia and the e. U. To have these conversations and with that pressure general what sort of impact is this going to have on those European Countries who are trying to control the flow of refugees who are fleeing the war in syria. So i think their discussion here is going to be about how the ticket you know can be continued at this point in time is unlikely to want to support the evening board it might be to want to try and have these conversations would take to click to ensure theyre maintaining their site in the down because with a 1000000 people displaced since december. This could lead to you and a lot of pressure of displaced people even movements of displaced people. In particular
