lou with with by the middle of the 19th century, practically the whole of india had been under the rule of the british empire. the colonial authorities had imposed that heavy death bringing the people into poverty and were exporting natural resources. and moreover, these authorities absolutely had no consideration for the provisions of the local population, treating them like 2nd class citizens. the british were showing signs of disrespect even to those who cooperated with them. the fact of ignoring the religious beliefs

of the hindus led to the mutiny of the boys. mercenary soldiers serving under the british crown. rebellion began on the 10th of may 1857 in the garrison town of may river, north of india. in the form of a mutiny. the rebels quickly took over daily. the heroic resistance of the indian people lasted for one and a half years. however, the forces were not equal to the colonial authorities dealt with the rebels cruelly thin slaves. the boys were tied to the mouth of the cannon and were shot right through their bodies for the amusement of the public. these type of execution was called the devil's with the obliteration of the mutiny resulted in the death of 800000 inhabitants of india. however, the british empire never broke the free spirit of the indians and their will for resistance

the on our way now to go to the beach but like other places in the world where you can just continue to decide to put on the custom and grab a beach bag. here we had a security voice. you can get us when we have 6 in front with a k 43 beautiful. this is a bullet proof. we have an arm. it was. i really think people are going to struggle to shoot through. so hope all is this just to take a quick trip to the beach to see that often it's not, doesn't make it into the mainstream. hello, welcome to the show from somalia, a country many has either never heard of. heard only bad things about a can't find on the map situated on the horn of africa. it has the longest co sign

on the continent, mainland. the country is most famous for wait for its poet, but unfortunately years or so will war, foreign involvement, and interference. most of the american has the countries, one of the poorest in the world, almost 3 in 4 people lives below the poverty line of 1900000 gallons a day. international travel advisory is warn you not to travel here due to on conflict, and as you can find me, the sound of the human helicopters keeping watch an ongoing, very high rate of care with the tech and kidnapping and dangerous level of violent crime. this is the same of what it's like to visit as a foreigner, german, i think here in the capital of somali, mont dishy for several days now. and i can tell you that this is my 1st to the

punchy. and 1st impressions are that the people are extremely hospitable, extremely kind and gracious. not this was a former colony of both italy and indian italians only really being spoken by the much older generation. most people do speak english and if it's not a good english, there is a kind of smattering of english. i was hoping to show you a bit of the life in the streets of market issue, but we are having to go every way with a 247 schools. we are not an officer of the faces of security guards that are with us all the time. the fact that i'm working on the ground is extremely unusual. the security is giving me a few minutes to do this report and then to get back into the vehicle. and that is because the government here is battling the militant group, which is an option of islamic stay. the same on, on facing and the worst drought in history is very,

very hot. yet only after arriving was told that march and april the hottest month, the basic plan, it makes con in that regard. but as you see, there are some kind of life older women who are dressed in traditional clothing. and every way you go people, notice you, because of course we look a bit strange and we look as if we foreign, the hotel that we staying in is actually compound. and the way it works is that any time we want to compound the fluids and they come with us, the compound itself is could not only with ahmed personnel who are holding and using a k 47. but this was the sandbags. there is also to main and all of that is meant to help you hi, behind. if there is some kind of shoot child or provide some kind of protection. if we go we have local with us. so here is a group off,

no contracts that have just driven past us and we have to say we usually have 6 types in the vehicle in front. and then the rest of the team is into vehicles following behind and id remains a concern. anytime we see a part of the vehicle is concerned in being given the time, like now the 15 off speak enough and it's time to get back in. but i am hoping to show you at least where that is kind of more of a main street, a little bit of what life in this very, very poor african country looks like. i'm not sure if you can hear the word in the call to prayer. this is a muslim country. it is 20 muslims. it is regardless of africa most. i'm a genius populations. 85 is mix tamales and then if we can just kind of pan around, you can see a bit of life. again, i'm constantly surrounded by the security guards and anytime it's empty,

i want to do any kind of discussion has to be arranged. ok, we've been off not to shows one camera people also camera shot. i do want to say that people who are very proud if the country that people go to, which is unfortunate and it is because of the security situation. in fact, if we can just swing a little bit this way, we won't show you the woman, but i just want to show you like the barriers and the kind of security that is everywhere. for those of us who remember reporting in iraq and those kind of countries, it brings back that kind of memory. this is a very dangerous country. it's a lot of security that needed. but at the same time, it's unfortunate because it is a country that seems to have been forgotten and my experiences have been nothing but but it wasn't always like this for millennia among support. connect to traders across the indian ocean in the 1800s,

the country was colonized by person and to me. and the famine of 993 led the american military care. the quote started as medicaid will be soon led to one of the heaviest losses sustained by the american army in one best known as the battle of market issue. years of civil war and lawlessness followed, lost in decades and virtually destroying the country's economy and infrastructure. in the last few years, to attend attention to the fighting local militia known as alex above, whose loyalty on time back to plans and war, or what years of absent government entities. the militants have provided, such as running their own tools, clinics and collecting trash. the new internationally recognized government, while framing with the us was chosen by its own people and not installed by washington at somalis have not forgotten americans contribution to their chaotic post. well, i think it's, you know, it's a mixed bag. you have some,

some molly's that support america and you know, the, are happy with the intervention, you know, in the fight against osha, bob. but there are some that are, you know, quite skeptical. and, you know, i think that america just opportunist looking to exploit. so monica, you know, because, so molly, as, as people, they are very wary of outsiders bought, you know, all in all, i think, you know, it's a mixed bag. and so while the people, you know, they're, they, they're on the fence. the us is aim initially was to help and from in relief with the you and you know, at a time where so molly was in the 2nd year of the civil war and the country was in a state of disarray. unfortunately, the mission, you know, took a different time, turned into a political thing, you know, where they wanted to snatch and grab and apprehend. one of so morally, the biggest warlords in

a div this in turn led to the bustle of mobile dish or which was a horrible loss of life on both sides. currently, just a few minutes ago i had, we had a very loud explosion. i really do hope that nobody's hurt and you know that it's not devastating, but to assess the political situation, the political future of somalia. this is a country that has been in war for the past 3 decades. it's a very gradual process to peace and stability. but, you know, with the current regime, there is a glimmer of hope in the darkness because they are really, you know, taking the fight to show up. they are pushing them out of rural areas where they, they, they, you know, held for almost a decade. and you know, with the current regime, you know, i shall be on the hills and they're practically non existence and sent in central somalia. so if you know,

the current regime carries on and on this trajectory, i think is i think we have a lot to look forward to. and you know, never give up hope. you know, i think in fort for me a similar syllable material. my monday, the stud, with one of the bill to the service. but my, my dream is to build capacity and it will, for us to be more in the city of use and all the money for an emergency to use some of the money developments or for example, in what some assistance in the snow. what, why the, what the plan all the time when a to dick wells, when the to, you know, come up in a what to the salvation and other who so we need to little think about how would use that. the resources i just, this are helping us, but the governments who do to, with those decisions, you know, on one hand, in a,

the intellectual community. and we are very thankful that this, of what the somali citizen maintenance one it, there is a thick head. and also that other editor to leaders in the world such as ukraine w, that's bigger to be that us of what are the somali so a lot of so what is with you live? but so under the smaller, much smaller the you've been and i hope the older community would be generous, inquisitive. samaria, exceptional because of show up. and because of the color meetings, a wi fi, some the consequences distribution that you are so money we're facing problems. the other kind of satisfaction i'll show up little dick one told me the enough one of the country it and that the i did the control is the production early on the it is the, the to with the lead livestock. and they don't allow people to farm the didn't allow and the be able to do whatever they want. salt in service of for economy. i what addiction is good,

don't yet to be up because of those. and i told was the group and collaborated is vivid to somebody that other other both of the old. so those are making our case more difficult. yes, if civil rule have resulted in a, from on you to ask breast cancer hostile wold, nearly 3000000 lives enabling kenya. and while some of them arrived with money and set up businesses, minnie flew across the border as refugees, our porter. none of we could get visits a community more than 5000 kilometers from home is a miley refugee crisis is one of the most challenging mass displacement situations in the world. over the last 30 years, hundreds of thousands of people have fled somalia, due to political instability and dangerous civil wars. the southern africa is currently hosting over a 100000 registered, so mighty refugees, half of whom live in south africa, to gauze,

or maria at the moment. and so it's another better life. and look, they peace fully. so i am scared myself also. yeah. i decided 1st naked to come here, it is not in my plan. i come to king a fast or so from there when they kill my brother. i'd said it to move to come this site. actually i just run away from her too much problem in my country. i recently, they give us a good day. well, come in here. everything is all right, but the problem we have here in the home affairs is just like when we just try to get our bare boss days a really big difficult dr. helen, i know our kids are born here, maddy or maybe they are safe. yeah. so,

but sometimes the thought of them growing up and realizing been not of african hits me every day with the young and small. so mine has been killed even yet in south africa. but this country is ways safer than somalia. i appreciate everything about south africa. how they treat as refugees and how they welcome our children at schools. but i get scared for them to sign up for the offer. i'm actually there, you know, you tinkin it's risky, it gave but i, you don't know when there was that did that? did the killing each other once you lose their kid, because i lose my family, so it's better because the miles have been displaced for generations. many somali children have been born in refugee camps. luckily for those in south africa, they have a place to call home. even though with challenges exist, novia couldn't get out of sea pretoria. it's not just conflict that some arlington

had to contend with. for more than 50 years, the country has faced multiple severe drugs. in 2011, more than a quarter of a 1000000 people died from famine. not only has the country not had a chance to recover from that, at the scene, no rain for the last 6 years. tragically, experts agree that the common child is the worst in recorded history. but from april, international agencies have decided to cut back on 8. dr. abraham de ganna ali says at western humanitarian assistance, has always been a double edged sword. i believe we do with her rebel or of the smallest themselves . we are the end with the support of the international community will overcome this crisis on. we love a peaceful ah, somalia, been a chance to share some donors have begun to some other and they are being held to some other data said,

allah lies when there's people one very there when people and i love food love of water or floods. they were saving lives, however, sometimes, ah, the prescription on the average that can be used can create a kind of dependence and misuse of resources. at one of the examples, simple things that i would mention is that you, you, you give kath before, when you call it and conditional cath at pharma supposed is the band is bomb police lice. who are the g j, who of cross will have a couple goals? when did you lose that? any of you ever did you, my mother will live by giving god will not got back to the far. the government is

working hard to reverse the situation. and recently established the somali disaster management agency submit to which coordinates or disaster related incidents in the country. i spend some time on the ground with them. i want to have it all in a tight enough, but that whole ha ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha ha. with one of the major crises,

somali disaster management agency thought met, is facing at the moment is trying to prevent what could potentially become the biggest genocide the world has ever seen. current projection weights suggest as many as 9000000 somalis and 12000000 more people from across east africa could die from hunger. in the coming months, sama has become the backbone of somalia, approved by the cabinet after the government prioritize the urgent need to manage disasters. and take care of people from the homes because of famine and conflict. aside from facilitating relief efforts from both local and international organizations, it focuses on helping communities build capacity to be able to feed himself in future and manage disasters in the areas. the agencies credo is that humanitarian assistance should be free from politics. and it seems that people to the worst it area is to provide food, clothing, shelter, and support. you are familiar with the situation. when you come to

a camp like this, what, what do you notice what, what for you is important that you look at and you see what is this you need for life? you think you think you can help all these people? return them? what can you give them also some white look enough. yeah. why do you give them these? this material that's on the you can give them a houses to them. lucas. it's not enough enough, but just what did they do for toilets?

so these 2 toilets, yes. it's 200 families, i mean the gap between hunger and resources is big, but saga is working to never wet and create lasting suit security. one day before winter to capital to top is malia also killed 7 security personnel and into the 11 government officials in the bombing attack on the guest house where they were holding a conference. we are running our logistics team to lift to quit that, that people here to move the dish. and then we prepare the unplug, you know, and it talks hospital. there's a lot of people getting one, but the sooner to people 10. so this thing we are making to support to evacuate in addition, please can call me the house because that communities be tough. it's

a fraction now after 2 for the last 23 years. and there is mainly focusing in the trauma, katie's from the all country in the health care system. now the country can last thing is improving and we'll leave a, you know, we can do before we use to send the patient outside because it's not easy for us to manage under to, you know, to do some operations in our country. nowadays we have the capacity to do all to stock is called different kinds of operation. and we think of belief that there is a guy there is improvement in going on in the health sector. but there's a gap still got of months, years of conflict under the generations of knowledge, a private local initiative, underpass them all the money and supported by the government, bring together generations of professionals to nurture homegrown talent. i caught up with the director of the center for leadership development safe in mogadishu.

when it comes to writing and studies that has been in the domain of the scientists of starting from the colonial and mission in the county and the traveller than so on. that it was only in, in the eighty's that we had produced our own intellectuals who are starting to, to write while, while we were on a low our way to establish that a credible academic, a capacity for, for the county. the war came and civil came and needs collapsed. now, it took us almost 20 years to have in the can say again, universities now we have plenty of them and that's another thing. what we have lost

in the civil war is not just generally the collapse of the government and the destruction of all the properties that were owned by the government. that the, the books, the documents, the, everything that was in the archive is also lost. and so the risk is that this national wealth of our intellectual heritage is driscoll being lost. if he does not, if it's not culture and through the work, we try to transfer that knowledge and experience from that generation to the new generation. if you have lost those materials, the only people who remember and have experienced that life are they, once the professionals who are live, so they, they have forecasts in somalia,

much much more value than in any other country. if you go now to the ministries, you will find need professional piano professionals. all of them had been trained in the country and they have gone through the cation while the bullets were still being fired. sometimes on them, sometimes as good in the government. crossfire no matter what happens in this country, whether it's done by international or you know, after, as it's our responsibility to the chemical self. somalia was being nice visited country in the world last year with less than 100 visitors. and it's really a pity because the country has a lot to offer, as you can see from the front behind me, there are

a number of historical sites, beaches, water, floors, mountain ranges and national parks. yes. yes. the economy is broken. 20 american $1.05. this amount of somalia, shillings, but people here do the best with what they had and kind hospitable and i use,

ah, well that brings us to the end of this week shows. we hope you found it informative . if you missed last week, we will also in somalia, focusing on how we and green crisis has affected the cost of the world. many blame the waste for instigating and contracting the rushing. you can contact the court that next week will still be coming on station of education in africa. if this is something i feel would love to hear from you. as always on the search for new ideas and input, you can always catch up on the deleted handles. i can see on the screen for myself, my team from another side of the somalia story that too often is neglected by the mainstream place from a sunny and unfold somalia. we produce

a oh ah ah ah, with

with ah, ah, ah

ah, ah . with that you found that i owed them a.
