That they were part of it killing machine terrorizing somalias population but now theyre asking for forgiveness this facility in juba land its home to 86 young men who used to fight for one of the deadliest islamist extremist groups in the world. Here in Southern Somalia in a town once under siege by al shabaab a program is being implemented to rehabilitate one extremist fighters with the hope of peacefully reintegrating them into society. The former fighters here mostly men aged between 24 and 29 have been granted amnesty and are seeking a 2nd chance 2 of them are willing to share why is it decided to defect. For their safety and security they have withheld their location and Real Identities by calling them and that he said was just 15 years old when he joined the group 5 years ago but the order in book could be 1st people join because the religion they say theyre promoting religion but this is just a front actually theyre killing innocent people for no reason or to fight in this could be. Similarly who joined us at the age of 16 it took him 8 years to escape from the group to see. If they also killed muslims in their attack when i saw my people dying i decided i had to break away to. Do so. Many men growing. In disenfranchised and poor parts of the country bled into joining up for financial reasons and a sense of belonging. To address this these men now receive locational training in hands on group classes. I did not know how to live within society i learned that here ive learned how to support myself. But many here are still haunted by nightmare as they struggle to fathom how they were capable of such violence. To 70 kilometers away from this now peaceful town peacekeepers mandated by the African Union are still waging a war against the minute and group. But. We have fought a lot and liberated several areas in the past 2 or 3 months. We are also working on a plan to liberate the areas still under the control of alshabaab and hand them over to the somali army. To me. Back at the rehab and taishan facility these young men receive professional psychological support. But above all its companionship and leisure time that are helping them to overcome that trauma. Before we can talk to each other about all the things weve done wrong and give each other support about how to fall back into our destructive winds. For somalia a hope for the birth of a United Government and for my life i hope to work for the benefit of my country and for my people with the new skills he sent men to intend to make a positive contribution to society again. To help other young people than the stake of joining up in the 1st place. Melanie courage about his now back in nairobi melanie tell us a little bit more about these rehabilitation programs do they actually what. It seems very much they are working of course its impossible to get nationwide numbers we are still talking about a country which is experiencing an ongoing civil Armed Conflict but in this facility in Southern Somalia almost 300 form of about fighters have been in rehab taishan and have all are about to go back to life in their communities the government grants amnesty to everyone who wants to leave the group and is ready to participate in one of these programs so there is an incentive but its incredibly difficult to leave the group the group makes it so difficult the man i spoke to told me that they were warned numerous times that if they did leave they would have lethal violence coming their way and that they are terrified of reality of retaliation from above but they did want to speak to us because they do want others to see that it is possible to leave the group and inspire them to do so and how about ordinary somalis how do they feel about these men given their own experiences when. I spoke to a lot of people on the ground and they told me that they believe that granting amnesty and having rehabilitation programs such as this one absolutely necessary for the country to move towards peace and to get rid of al shabaab for good we went to a city which was liberated from just a few years ago and its just coming back to life there are a lot of returning refugees and internally displaced people and they told me that stories listen to so many women telling me how they witnessed their husbands being killed by how they were on the run for years how they are still desperate to go back to their villages but its impossible because that area is still controlled by alshabaab there is no feeling safe and so mind you at this moment and listening to them its impossible not to feel their fear and their pain but you do also realize that people off hopeful and one of the reasons why they are hopeful is because there are programs such as this one and place or melanie courage much alright its a look at some of the other stories making news around the world the u. N. Says it has received reports that libyan guards shot at refugees who were trying to flee and strikes on adoptions and at least 53 people were killed in the attack which the government blamed on the rebels the u.

K. Told hunt to stop interfering in what beijing regards as its internal affairs punk trying to do at the ministry richard it is not what it used to be under the British Colonial rule. How come appear are purely. Internal affairs with. No intruders from any country and over. Foreign unity now police in hong kong have arrested more than 20 people in connection with the protests and says a growing but tensions will increase if still more activists detained now he has been speaking to some young Young Hong Kong those involved in the protests and talking to them about their efforts to document the events of the past week. So someone is looking for the last train. He says of the protest as demonstrators retreat their messages are disappearing as well wong considers himself an archivist of the movement. I find it. My 1st special way to look at the. Weeks protesters use this wall adjacent to the Hong Kong Government offices to leave messages for each other shortly before authorities started to clear the area wong and some fellow demonstrators stepped in to retrieve their messages. A large portion of all the messages about solidarity are. Deadly effects. There is a kind of wall and Community Spirit among the protest one of the most peaceful could have remnants the memorial corner for a number of demonstrators who killed themselves in desperation as a final sign of protest news that shook many hong kong residents. Protests have subsided for now leaving many despondent several suicide threats online have alarmed firefighters and volunteers who have been out all day to prevent further attempts by a lot of people participating in political and like most. I call the fighting and how we can get. Some someone has been Walking Around the scene of mondays Clashes Police have sealed off the entrance to the Legislative Council several people have been arrested. I think its ironic to. The creator that the all the people seem to be treated as after the fall prosecuted and. It will be a long time before the legislature can be used again but the next protests have already been called for this week. One person has died and 4 have been injured in japan off to turn a rental down pool was hit the south of the country the government has advised 1000000 residents to evacuate the Congress Seen a perfect chill in the area most affected by the deluge 14000 soldiers have been committed to the system urgency relief efforts the rain is now moving toward central japan and the capital tokyo. A raging torrent on a river swollen by days of rain since friday some areas in southern japan have experienced one meter of precipitation twice the seasonal average. The ceaseless down poor has caused however flooding and landslides are destroying infrastructure and homes and putting lives at risk thousands of sought refuge in makeshift shelters but most of the 1000000 people advised to evacuate have stayed home the Emergency Response is in full swing because i still do police the Fire Department and Maritime Security are working on evacuation call rescue and life saving activities and yesterday the government of congo she went perfect or called in the military which is already begun its work there to meet the flow kind of. Last year heavy rainfall killed more than 200 people in the west of the country the high death toll was blamed on a slow government response to the crisis its a mistake authorities are desperate not to repeat. A trade dispute truces in colonial history is heating up between japan and south korea from today tokyo is restricting exports of equipment needed to make semiconductors and computer displays the move is intended to hurt south koreas high Tech Industry and it comes a soul is demanding action on compensating for wartime labor is. At the heart of this high tech trade dispute between 2 asian powerhouses are people like lead. Hes among a dwindling number of south korean survivors who were forced into labor by japan during world war 2. In october of last year south koreas top of course up held an order for japans need paan steel to pay compensation to forced laborers. The landmark ruling triggered a bitter dispute between the 2 countries about how to deal with further demands from victims of forced labor. As the sparks over history ask japan retaliated with an unprecedented move on trade announcing it would be restricting exports of highly specialized equipment needed to make semiconductors and computer just plays the measure designed to hurt south koreas high Tech Industry prompted a furious response from seoul and if its not a matter of damage the economic relationship between our countries but its also expected to grossly affect the world trade order and corporations in 3rd Party Countries japans Prime Minister shinzo out but he denies accusations he is using business as a bargaining chip for dealing with his countrys history. We did not mix up historical issues with those of trade. The issue of former civilian workers is not and has starkly issue its about whether to keep that promise between countries under international law. The export restrictions could cause months of delays in production processes pushing south korean tech giants like samsung and l. G. Under major pressure. Says korea has already launched a complaint with the World Trade Organization and says its not ruling out retaliating with countermeasures of its own a move that would expose a further crack in the already fragile global trade relationships. Senior Business Editor said and as it is following this story for us ben put this into perspective for us how much of an impact could this have on global trade basically is going to slow things down it would immediately have an effect on products going out to to consumers but it will slow down the process japan is basically burying south korean importers in paperwork theyre going to its going to be a lot harder for them to get their hands on the material they need to make there their semiconductors in the chips officials reckon it could slow trade by several months and the top chip makers the memory chip makers are all in south korea they supply not only. Other companies within south career and japan so it will hurt both sides but also the u. S. Like apple weiwei in china so this is pulling in a whole lot of different economies. Which are already all involved in this trade war and if there is a tit for tat response from south korea which looks likely than this whole thing could explode ok lets talk about the effect on consumers if this dispute does drag on could it become more people more difficult for people to get their hands on a Samsung Phone and say in the short term no. Samsung says it has months of stockpiles the main chip makers also say theyre fine in the short term the small it produces could it could be the death of them theyre already facing the sectors biggest downturn ever and if neither side backs down way hearing from south korea this is only the beginning japan has been telling reporters that it could actually expand these curbs then yes its going to hurt production its going to hurt a whole lot of countries and consumers could also be hurt here atlast say the whole process of semiconductor kinship making could be in big trouble up to 90 percent of the free materials used in ship making come from japan so these. Big chip makers are going to be struggling to find someone else to supply them ok and how does a list change the dynamic in that the current global trade will this is where it is really interesting the reason the japan gives for curbing these exports is National Security if you heard that before. The trouble hes using that exact that exact reasoning for his curbing of exports when it comes to the trade war with mexico as well and. A the japanese leader is great friends plays golf with mr trump and those 2 guys get along well but he doesnt get along too well with south korea on the other hand and this whole dispute pits the 2 of them south korea and japan against each other when a whole global trade war is raging on and trump really needs both of them in the fight against china and has even thanks so much for clarifying all of that for us. All right to the womens football world cup now the netherlands have secured a place in sundays final against the United States ear pain champions were pushed to the limit by sweden but they prevailed thanks to a goal in extra time. The 2nd semifinal in 2 days in leone started with more crunching tackles than clearcut chances cowards they go to close down vienna medium are here. Both sides could have scored in the 2nd half but both keepers fiercely defended their goals i swedens neil official was denied by a fingertip save from sorry found feenan doll at one end before a bullet header from media was met by an equally impressive stop from head to lindahl the other i. Ultimately neither team was able to break through in 90 minutes in extra time though a superheat from distance shot of the day i jackie groan and with her 1st ever world cup goal sending the netherlands into their 1st ever World Cup Final. No chance for keeper lindahl and no way back for her side only the mighty us now stand in the netherlands way. Indeed tell you Sports Correspondent all of that media is only on what both semifinals well played high on a give us your take on the 2nd semifinal what did you think. Well i think we were a little bit spoiled by the 1st semifinal between the u. S. And england you know that was a game that had action and tension and control was the all in equal measure and the 2nd semifinal didnt quite live up to those very high standards it was a much more defensive game there are much fewer chances for the attacking players to really shine apart from of course the goal the winning goal that put the netherlands through to the final jackie ronan as we heard was the one who scored it picking up the ball on the edge of the box and rushing it home a real moment of quality that excellent finish i did expect to see a few more moments of that kind of quality but ultimately it doesnt matter for the netherlands that along with their organized defense was enough to get them into their 1st ever World Cup Final and coming just 2 years after they won the European Championship as well for a country that previously was never a big hitter and womens football this is a real moment to celebrate now playing in the biggest game that there is in womens football here and big deal for the dutch then going to come up against the reigning champions the
