In his sight. Columbia authorities are about to start of what could be the countrys largest mass grave. But first a son of libyas former leader Moammar Gadhafi sentenced to death for his alleged role in suppressing the 2011 uprising and he wasnt in court in tripoli to hear his sentence as barker now reports. Reporter he is the man many believe would succeed his father colonel Moammar Gadhafi of leader of libya but after a guilty verdict islam faces death by firing squad. He was arrested in 2011 trying to flee the country and has been kept in prison by a former rebel group in the mountain town. The rebel Group Opposes the legally installed government in tripoli but allowed islam to participate by a video link. Translator 36 others were also given sentences on tuesday including former intelligence chief abdul la and Prime Minister also sentenced to death by firing squad. Libyas chief Prosecutor Says the sentences of those tried in tripoli will be carried out. Translator they were asked to obtain these sessions but they didnt come so they were sentenced in absent of islam. The final ruling will be delivered to them by their lawyers. Even the prosecution has not been acquainted with the roles to date. The legal period is 60 days for appealing the verdict and it has nothing to do with politics. Reporter a case was brought against islam by the International Court in 2011 but libya leaders refused to hand him over for trial in the hague and later won to try him at home and in tripoli important has been repeatedly questioned and human rights say they failed to provide him with proper legal representation and for many libyans the gadhafi brothers and former aid represent the faces of his 42 year long dictatorship and many want it left in the past. Lee barker al jazeera. Lets talk now to a political analyst and director of the tripoli based institute and joins us now via skype from london and so can we say that justice has been done in libya today or is it just a semblance of justice that we just witnessed . The families have been described at the hands of the gadhafi family and the justice is bitter sweet and doesnt look like the way in which i think many people that came out on for the revolution demonstrated bitterly with arms and been involved in democratic condition in the last four years. I dont think this is the kind of victory they may have wanted and i think ultimately any person that has been given a trial in this way has prejudice and that all be it mostly in their minds know he will be guilty of some form of crime that has been committed in the last 40 years the way in which and the means that have been used to conduct this trial are anything but legal and anything but fair and anything but what many libyans got four years ago so i dont think in this respect justice has really been delivered. Not giving someone access to lawyers and being beaten and committed torture to in the jails in time for the trial. I wanted to ask you particularly about that. So he wasnt in the, at the trial in tripoli, instead he is held by one malitia in zintan so therefore is this an indication of how fragmented libya is today . There are two Parliament Governments and to sets of malitias that are fighting for control of the country. Neither one is able to and ultimately looking towards a peaceful solution and still looking at people like islam and also looking more broadly across their National Political landscape, all names are used in political bargaining chips and islam is no different and doesnt bowed well for a country looking to make those changes particularly towards those that are looked at as victims. This is endemeanoric and systematic how it has been transitioning in the last four years. It has been passed on islam but he is not in tripoli. He is being held in zintan what will be his fate . No doubt they will try to you know attempt to execute this law. I dont think the malitia are going to give him up to the authorities in tripoli given they both work for different sides and the malitia is Operation Dignity and the tripoli government is the operation for the coverage so i dont think they are going to look for any kind of solution Going Forward and i think it will still remain as it is and i dont think you can pursue the execution of the order. This has been refused seven times that called him in for the trial outside. Libya authorities on both sides dont want to work with each other and agree with loss of sovereignty here and also means that unless they want to Work Together unless they have a National Unity government i dont think they will be able to execute these orders. Talking to us from london thank you. Now nato is holding a rare emergency meeting in brussels to review the threat that i. S. I. L. Poses to turkey. The extraordinary meeting is the 28th nation defense block was called by turkey because it is worried about the growing strength of i. S. I. L. In its border region. It is right and timely that we hold this meeting today to address the instability on turkeys doorstep and on natos border. Nato is following developments very closely and we stand in strong solidarity with our ally turkey. Reporter okay live now to our correspondent who is attending that meeting in brussels barnabie phillips and saying this is an unusual meeting and extraordinary meeting called under the terms of article four. What does that actually mean . Well that means that a nato member country feels under threat feels that the border is under threat and in this case its turkey. The only nato front line state if you like in relation to i. S. I. L. So this is an important moment for nato but it comes with complications as well. For a long time there have been countries in western europe and the United States of course who have wanted turkey to be on board in the fight against i. S. I. L. In syria and in Northern Iraq. Well, it does seem that that is happening in the wake of last weeks attacks but it comes with a caveat which is turkey is of course also going after p. K. K. Bases in Northern Iraq and there lies the rub because for the west the Kurdish Forces in northern and in Eastern Syria have been an important ally and so to what extent can a viable military relationship with turkey against i. S. I. L. Be productive without alienating Kurdish Forces in syria and that is going to be a very tricky diplomatic question. Indeed, the turks are saying they are not targeting syrian kurds despite accusations being levelled against them that they have indeed hit them as targets but it says that it does have the right to go after the p. K. K. Domestic Kurdish Force which is based in Northern Iraq. Its saying to nato it doesnt need any weapons. What does it really want then in this rather ambiguous battle . I think crucially what will happen today is that both sides, nato and the sorry the remainder of nato on one side and 27 countries and turkey on the other want to feel out exactly where they stand. From the turkish point of view will they get the support and solidarity for what they are trying to do to what extent are the strong objections from nato allies about the involvement against the kurds and what exactly are turkeys plans in relation to i. S. I. L. There has been talk of an i. S. I. L. Free zone being established by turkey across the entire what is it 900 kilometer length of the turkish syria border that sounds very, very sweeping in its scope. How would it be achieved in practical terms, to what extent will turkish requests we have heard in the past for no fly zone in Northern Syria be welcomed or turned down by nato allies so there is a lot to discuss but as you say at this point there is no indication that turkey is asking nato allies to contribute military hardware to bring in forces into turkey to help in any of its objectives either against the p. K. K. Or against i. S. I. L. Okay live in brussels and will keep us across with developments of the special meeting being held by nato. But we can now go to turkey itself and get to the southern part of turkey, very close to the Syrian Border. And our correspondent there is zaina and Bernard Smith is in the city there and lets start off with zaina who is very close to the Syrian Border so this idea then of a buffer zone an i. S. I. L. Free zone we are hearing a little bit about from barnabie is something they have been talking about for a long time. Long demanding this for years now and wanted a no fly zone militarily imposed no fly zone for a safe haven for the Syrian People and prevent syrian airplanes from targeting those areas. Now the west has always been reluctant because of the National Implications involved with u. N. Security Council Decision and most likely there will be a russian veto. We heard from the u. S. State department make it very clear there will be no fly zone. It is not under consideration for now. But what is under consideration according to the United States is cooperation with turkey to target i. S. I. L. In the northwest. The area behind me. We have to remember the coalition started to target i. S. I. L. In syria last september but the air campaign was focused in the northeast of the country close to the iraqi border and i. S. I. L. Had a strong presence there and able to move between the strong holds in syria and iraq. The focus has really been in that region. And the forces on the ground were syrias kurds and they have cooperated with the coalition and are seen as partners and the syrian kurds have managed to make territorial gains pushing i. S. I. L. From the border. Turkey made it clear they are unhappy with the strength of the kurds and y. P. G. Movement and sees it as an off shoot of p. K. K. And calls it a terrorist organization. What turkey wants is concentrated efforts to rid the area behind me, the Northwest Region of aleppo from i. S. I. L. To protect Syrian Opposition groups which have been coming under attack from i. S. I. L. Like you mentioned there are a lot of details that still need to be worked out and the main question is who is going to police this buffer zone, secure zone no fly zone what ever its being called now because the Syrian Opposition groups who operate in this area are not friendly with the United States and turkey will not want to see the y. P. G. Take more territory. Thank you for that and bernard is in the city here and bernard every country in region has its kurdish population doesnt it . Obviously the syrians have their Kurdish Community, the iraqis have their Kurdish Community as does iran and beyond but the turkish kurds how do they feel right now given that parliamentary successes of not too long ago, a couple of months ago seen now to be very much underminded . Well, those parliamentary successes are yet to show fruition because there is no new government yet formed. The Current Ruling Party ak are still in Coalition Talks with potential Coalition Partners because it lost its overall majority in the elections so those were successes for the prokurdish h. D. P. Party but they are yet to manifest themselves in parliament. I mean there has been a lot of frustration generally in this part of turkey over the years, over the stalled Peace Process and that frustration is getting more and more noticeable at the moment i have just come from a meeting of about 85 or so n. G. O. S, representatives of 85 n. G. O. S here who want to discuss their response to what the turkish government is doing. I spoke also to one of those newlyelected m. P. S earlier on someone who knows the thinking of the p. K. K. The Kurdistan Workers Party and says the p. K. K. Could if it wanted to sort of go all out again in its war with turkey. It hasnt because he said they are still hoping there is a chance for talks. Of course the p. K. K. Has been active turkish Prime Minister cited 81 incidents over resent times but there hasnt been any sort of major operation by the p. K. K. In fact, this m. P. Tells me the p. K. K. Just wants to show the turkish government and says if you can come into our house we can come into yours. Live there Bernard Smith and early speaking to zaina in another part of turkey thank you very much.

The Saudiled Coalition and Houthi Rebels accusing each other of breaching the latest ceasefire in yemen and its day two of the fiveday truce but heavy fighting in central and southern yemen as well as in the north close to the saudi border and we report. Reporter the markets in aiden have once again come to life even though the Saudiled Coalition in a lateral truce is barely holding. On the citys outskirts progovernment fighters say houthis and loyalists go to the airport and meanwhile a saudi air strike targeted a launch pad in the nearby province. The houthis have not committed to pause in the fighting and see it as a ploy to reenforce government held areas on the roads leading to aiden checkpoints are established to monitor all movement. But the relative calm in fighting mean much needed aid is arriving and getting aid to aiden is the first step to reach impoverished people running out of basic supplies. Translator 80 of yemen people are in need of assistance over 9 million need Urgent Medical help and immobilization of children has stopped completely and presents a threat to their future. Reporter the mood in the capitol sanaa is grim and many just want the war to be over. Translator we are entering the fifth month of war and destruction. Yemen does not deserve this. The children dont deserve this. In the end of all this destruction the warring sides will sit down and negotiate and its impossible to resolve this conflict except through dialog and its better if they just do it now. Reporter in areas where Houthi Rebels are trying to take control there has been no pause in the fighting. And there are reports of shelling and progovernment fighters say the houthis are sending reenforcements on the border with saudi Arabia Houthis say they fired missiles and saudi forces say they responded to the attack. Even in areas where there is support for the government in exile people dont have much faith in the pause. We hope that this truce will stop. I mean, its something strange but as we can see here as you can listen from people we do not trust the truce. We think that attacking houthis continuously is the key to beat it. Reporter truce, what truce . We didnt know anything about it and we heard there is a truce to get electricity and water. We just want things to improve. Reporter in aiden damage infrastructure and lack of Public Services is a constant reminder of the fighting and people here know its not over yet. Al jazeera.
