Armfuls on if have suffered more than er taiz, which has been virtually pushed siege. Every second counts, and war has taught them to be quick. It has honed their skills. At al zour hospital, doctors patch up some of the latest broken bodies. This time, its Government Troops hit by a houthi drone. One soldier, called omar, could not be saved. Another is rushed away for treatment elsewhere. Anyone can be a target here, notjust men in uniform. Nearby, we meet hanadi. Every painful step reminds her of the war. Her father struggles to pay for her treatment. She was shot in the back by a sniper, he tells us. That was in 2016 and the bullet is still lodged inside her. Are you very worried about the future for hanadi . Yes, he says. I am worried for her because shes a girl. I wish it happened to me and not her. I wish the sniper had shot me and not her. This is the biggest hospital in a city that has been a battleground for years. These days in taizz and in yemen, its not all out war, but its not peace either. The guns are quieter, but this hospital is still receiving plenty of patients wounded by the conflict. Like mohammed, who is seven. And crying for his mother. His dressing needs to be changed. Its hard for his father to watch. Mohammed lost Three Fingers when he picked up an explosive device. He was playing on the roof of his home. Translation hes scared because his hand is gone. L hes very scared. He cant do anything. He cant even hold a pen. In the hospitals busy prosthetics clinic, they try to replace what war has taken away. But these artificial limbs are basic, and its traumatic, even for the doctors. It must be very, very hard for you to see the children like this. Its so bad. Translation its very upsetting. Our hearts ache when we see Young Children who are still looking forward to living and enjoying life needing amputations. Next door, a regular Physiotherapy Session for shaima al ahmed, who has been walking this path for years. A landmine took her leg and killed herfriend. Shaima is determined to be a lawyer, and at 12 years old, she is the voice of a generation in yemen. Translation children here suffer. Theyve lost their arms and legs. They dont go out and play like other children around the world. They play in comfort, but we play in fear. We just stand by the doors of our homes. When we hear shelling or gunfire, we run back inside. Shaima, what would you like to say to the international community, to the world, about what is happening here in yemen . Translation why dont you see the children of taiz . Why all this neglect . Are we not humans in your eyes . Across town, an honour guard for omar, the soldier killed in the houthi drone strike. One more death in a long war, and few here see a chance for peace. Orla guerin, bbc news, taizz.

But whatever top stories. The accidental publication has brought home their families mac one fears about their safety. The Police Service of Northern Ireland shared the names of all officers and staff theirfamilies the names of all officers and staff their families safety. Miss also emerged the force has begun an investigation including the spreadsheet with names of more than 200 officers. Life to Stephen White. Live now to belfast and to Stephen White who is a former Assistant Chief Constable at the Police Service of Northern Ireland. First of all, i want your reaction to this breach.

Very serious situation and it will require some very serious strategic thinking. And some immediate action to alleviate some of the stress and the dismay and anger that is being articulated throughout the ranks. When you think therefore over 30 years, we had a conflict which took the lives of over 300 Police Officers and injured and maimed so many others. And the impact that had on the police family. And then we have the good friday agreement, and everyone hopes there are better days ahead for policing. So it still takes courage to be a police officer, in Northern Ireland, but there was a hope we learned it from there was a hope we learned it from the past, but it appears that what was the mantra in the past, security is everything, security of your home, your documents, your car all of those things, whether its been unlearned or other priorities have taken place in terms of being more open, something serious has gone wrong. There is a reputational damage, there is a Leadership Crisis in terms of the confidence of the Police Officers, but there are many other implications of what took place.

Ive been injured, hospitalised all of those things that Police Officers taken their stride. But sadly, others paid the ultimate sacrifice, and in february this year, a Detective Team inspector almost paid that sacrifice again when he was targeted. So, the security level here is highest its ever. Its severe. Theres a severe risk of attack on police officer. Those who have the capability. T officer. Those who have the capability officer.

They may be lesser in terms of the marital capacity numerical capacity. So, its a complex picture. Were all hoping to focus on community policing, but there are still those within the Police Service who have very dangerous jobs that require anonymity. Then you add to that the tier of those officers who have been recruited from the catholic republican nationalist communities who do not want to declare their obligation, and that includes the staff that are unsworn. Theres a lot of people very, very concerned at the moment, and people are talking about litigation, massive confrontation. But the reality is that security is paramount.

For youre watching bbc news. Now the stuff of nightmares a texas woman was attacked by a hawk and a snake at the same time.
