The brotherhood has condemned the bombing saying it has renounced violence years ago. Reporter this was the biggest car bomb egypt has seen since the revolution of january 2011. A massive blast that tore through the Police Headquarters. It went off around midnight. Whoever sent the bomb may have had inside knowledge of the meeting to discuss security for next months referendum for a new constitution. The interior minister called it a terrorist attack. Translator all of these incident are an attempt to create a diversion to terrorize people because of the referendum. But there is a plan in place in kwap with the armed forces to protection of the Election Centers at the highest levels. Reporter casualties overwhelmed the hospital. Officials appealed for blood donors. Doctors spoke of horrific injuries. Outside demonstrators filled the street in solidarity with the police. Although no one group has claimed responsibility. The protesters blamed the muslim brotherhood. Translator everyone knows it is a terrorist group, and Security Forces have to work harder. Today they attacked here and god knows where tomorrow. Reporter but the brotherhood and the anticoup alliance have condemned the attack. Regardless of who was behind the bombing. It has caused a nation that is literally divided. These are the scenes a short while ago in the city. Clashes and violence there in the wake of the car bomb attack. Lets talk to al jazeeras correspondent in the city joining us on the phone. Tell us what is happening on the ground there and why these people are protesting. Reporter well now before me [ inaudible ] people demonstrating against [ inaudible ] they are charging against the brotherhood as they feel the brotherhood is responsible. People [ inaudible ] to protect [ inaudible ] people asking the government to move ahead against the brotherhood, and we found now people in streets where [ inaudible ] in the streets chanting against the brotherhood and they consider the brotherhood a terrorist group. People now attacking the buildings owned by the brotherhood. Now we have outside a lot of the billings which are owned by the brotherhood is a terrorist [ inaudible ] brotherhood as the fear of the group were seeing some of the latest pictures of the crowds outside that building with some find kind of fire in front of the building.

Tensions are rising all over the city. And people want to take revenge from the brotherhood as they consider them a dangerous group to egypt. All right. Thank you very much. Now the United Nations says it has found 34 bodies in a mass grave in south sudan. The corps were found in the town of bentu. At least two other mass graves have reportedly been dug up in the capital. So thousands more peace keepers could be on the way we understand to southland. What is it like with the change on the ground . People here are really hoping here that it does. The problem the unfaces is the [ inaudible ] go into the bush where people are hiding. There may be injured there or dead bodies there, and people that need help. So they are helping to do those sorts of things. We have spoken to human rights workers. They have to find out how many bodies are there. Who are they, how were they kills, and maybe find out who is responsible. We spoke to an Army Spokesperson and this is what he had to say. [ inaudible ] found a mass grave then we will be ready to go investigate. Here we have [ inaudible ] death some criminals targeted some people. People have died but they are still in command. They have taken the control of the town and the command is investigating into anybody who had been targeted or killed based on his or her ethnicity. So they will be happy for that information to help us in the investigation. That is a crime. South sudan belong to all of us. We are a national army. We will not allow tribalism to be mixed with politics. Nearly 20 of the Oil Production has had to be shut down . Yes, they are saying they are losing about 45,000 barrels a day of oil. Thats a big concern. They need the oil for the country to function for the economy. Thats how they survive to pay Civil Service for the government to function. So they really need to get things back up and running. So it is a serious concern for government officials here. Just a final thought what is the latest now with the diplomatic effort to get both sides talking to try to end this spiralling crisis . They are still trying frantically, there are still people here meeting with officials trying to get both sides to speak. We are hearing that the former Vice President says he is willing to talk and the president is willing to talk. But there are some conditions. So they are trying to iron out the nitty gritty. Thank you. A draft solution has been put forth by ban kimoon. The un already has 6,700 piece keepers in the country. They want another 5,500 to back them up. They will be drawn from other neighboring countries. More equipment is also expected to be transferred. Three attack helicopters, three utility helicopters and one transport military aircraft are all planned. Kenya airways have suspended all flight to and from south sudan. Dead bodies only they are rotten. They are rotten. Reporter terrified and traumatized kenyan women telling their ambassador they didnt believe they survived. No food nothing. Reporter they say they were air lifted by a un helicopter. It was a miracle. Those guys had not come to pick us. They had come to pick the u. S. Citizens. Thats when they discovered the u. S. Citizens had already been evacua evacuat evacuated. So they gave a chance to only so women. Reporter they shared Horror Stories and spoke of widespread looting that left many of them with nothing. [ inaudible ] and my passport nothing else. Here i am. That is all i got out with. But i dont care. Reporter even though in the relatively calm capitol want out. There are some 30,000 kenyans in south sudan, at least two have died as a result of the violence. And 10,000 kenyans have applied for emergency travel documents in the past week. Kenyan military Officials Say their priority has been to get women and children out. Reporter they have been delivering food, milk, and water. The government says it is doing what it can, given the circumstances. Those who are financially able have been getting on commercial flights. Survivors say there are many kenyans that remain missing. Some are thought to have fled to the bush. Experience leaving an imprint even on the younger ones. Fighting is not good. It is killing people. Reporter desperation sets in as the planes fill up. While those who have made are grateful, they say the world needs to remember those left behind. Now through out this year, we have reported on refugee camps. Reporter as syrias refugee crisis continues there are 2. 3 million refugees across the country. Also within syria itself there are 4 million internally displaced people. Thats a huge number of people who effectively refugees within their own country. Most of them live in camps like these. This camp is home to about 13,000 people. And the aid people are trying to give them a sense of spirit. They are doing that by employing residents. Like all towns it needs an economy and infrastructure to survive. The winters are incredibly harsh here. Flooding if not controlled would wash away this camp. One aid agency is working with a French Nongovernmental Organization and the norwegian refugee council, they are helping to protect against flooding by build tour fs. Im the Soul Provider so this is a great opportunity for me to work, and im proud i can provide an income for my family. Reporter it is hard work. Its a basic lowcost solution, but incredibly effective. Tom robinson, the manager of the Program Takes a hands on approach. The people are unemployed, the kids have nothing to do during the day, so we try to actively involve them in the projects we have. And it helps the whole community engagement, and gives them a far greater sense of purpose. The guys and families involved in this project take a real sense of pride in what they are doing. Reporter as the children imitate the workers, people in the camp develop a community through such programs. About 13. 5 thousand people live here, many with very little to do. While they are building this camp there is a lot of work to go around, but this is a shortterm solution. What we have seen is when the work dries up there is a sense of frustration that kicks in. And that can lead to anger and violence. And managing that especially when dealing with refugee communities of this size is going to be crucial. Reporter there are camps like this across the region and the longer the conflict goes on the more anger there will be. Lots more to come here on the al jazeera news hour, including top military commanders meet to diffuse tensions in cashmere.

Heing went to the Investigative Committee today. And he was given a peace of paper confirming that the investigation for him at least is now over as a result of the amnesty passed a few days ago. He then went to the federal Migration Service because he needs a stamp on his passport to leaf the country. The reason he needs that stamp is because he was illegally seized after the green peace guys committed a peaceful protest. When gets that stamp in his passport he can leave. So it could be a relatively long process, but were very much hoping that they start to leave the country in the next few days. Obviously green peace got a lot of the publicity out of the action. But it has it made any difference . Was it worth it after all of this . I think ask the protesters themselves. And almost all of them they dont regret what they did. Because more people than ever know about the problems of drilling in the arctic and how difficult it would be to clean up an arctic oil spill.
