Syria: Human Rights Watch ac­cus­es Assad regime of de­lib­er­ate airstrikes against civil­ians
1:15
http://www.euronews.com/ The crises in Syria and North Korea are set to be top the agenda at a pre-G8 summit meeting in London on Wednesday and Thursday.

British foreign secretary William Hague is hosting the foreign ministers from Canada, France Germany, Italy, Japan, Russia and the United States, ahead of the official meeting in Northern Ireland in two months time.

Following rising tensions in the Korean peninsular, Hague said the group will be talking about preventing or resolving conflict or dealing with its consequences.

The delegates will also be discussing the issue of providing more help for the Syrian opposition.

A US official said there are no signs of a change in Moscow\'s position and the radicalisation of some elements of the divided opposition have tempered the enthusiasm of some western nations to support the rebels militarily.

Members of the Syrian opposition were on the fringes of the meeting ready to talk with those nations who wish to speak to them.

US Secretary of State, John Kerry will attend the meeting of the so-called Friends of Syria in Istanbul on April 20.

The United States agreed to provide non-lethal aid to Syrian rebels in February, and more than double its aid to the civilian population, but it has so far chosen not to provide arms.

In 2011 two friends decided they were going to cycle around the world in aid of War Child UK. Before leaving in, February 2012, they visited Bangui, Central African Republic to see firsthand how War Child UK are supporting a local charity there.

The charity, Fondation Voix du Coeur, provides help and support to the street children of Bangui.

Here is a short documentary telling the story of just a handful of street children in Bangui and how the Fondation Voix du Coeur, with the help of War Child UK, is providing essential support for them.

Please help us support War Child UK. They are a small international charity that protects children from the brutal effects of war and its consequences.

They currently work in Afghanistan, Democratic Republic of Congo, Central African Republic, Iraq, Uganda and now Syria.

They\'re on the ground -- supporting the most vulnerable children that are too often forgotten in the aftermath of conflict.

You can donate to them direct through our JustGiving page here: http://www.justgiving.com/DaringDynamos

The United Nations Special Representative of the Secretary-General on Sexual Violence in Conflict (SRSG), Zainab Hawa Bangura, has visited Mogadishu (2-3 April), Somalia\'s capital, to raise awareness and discuss ways of addressing sexual violence in the country.

SRSG Bangura met with UN officials, civil society partners and a range of stakeholders to listen and learn about the challenges faced in tackling sexual violence.

SRSG Bangura\'s first trip to Somalia also included a visit to the Tarabunka IDP (internally displaced people) Camp - the biggest in the capital.

She also visited a health centre where victims of sexual violence are given free medical treatment and taught vocational skills like hena design - a highly sought-after traditional dyeing technique used by women to decorate their bodies on special occasions.

SRSG Bangura said the focus of this first visit was on information gathering to help inform future conversations with the government.

http://www.euronews.com/ The crises in Syria and North Korea are set to be top the agenda at a pre-G8 summit meeting in London on Wednesday and Thursday. British foreign secretary William Hague is hosting the foreign ministers from Canada, France Germany, Italy, Japan, Russia and the United States, ahead of the official meeting in Northern Ireland in two months time. Following rising tensions in the Korean peninsular, Hague said the group will be talking about preventing or resolving conflict or dealing with its consequences. The delegates will also be discussing the issue of providing more help for the Syrian opposition. A US official said there are no signs of a change in Moscow's position and the radicalisation of some elements of the divided opposition have tempered the enthusiasm of some western nations to support the rebels militarily. Members of the Syrian opposition were on the fringes of the meeting ready to talk with those nations who wish to speak to them. US Secretary of State, John Kerry will attend the meeting of the so-called Friends of Syria in Istanbul on April 20. The United States agreed to provide non-lethal aid to Syrian rebels in February, and more than double its aid to the civilian population, but it has so far chosen not to provide arms.

A team of UN experts has gone to Cyprus and is waiting to carry out an investigation on the alleged use of chemical weapons in Syria, two weeks after Secretary-General Ban ki-Moon received a request from the government itself to examine the reported use by opposition forces. But early signs show there is little chance of the group entering the country, despite Ban's best efforts to convince the government to be "flexible". The rejection, posted on the state news agency SANA, is likely because the UN is promising to examine "all possible uses" of chemical weapons. Al Jazeera's diplomatic editor James Bays reports from the UN's headquarters in New York.

The United Nations Special Representative of the Secretary-General on Sexual Violence in Conflict (SRSG), Zainab Hawa Bangura, has visited Mogadishu (2-3 April), Somalia's capital, to raise awareness and discuss ways of addressing sexual violence in the country. SRSG Bangura met with UN officials, civil society partners and a range of stakeholders to listen and learn about the challenges faced in tackling sexual violence. SRSG Bangura's first trip to Somalia also included a visit to the Tarabunka IDP (internally displaced people) Camp - the biggest in the capital. She also visited a health centre where victims of sexual violence are given free medical treatment and taught vocational skills like hena design - a highly sought-after traditional dyeing technique used by women to decorate their bodies on special occasions. SRSG Bangura said the focus of this first visit was on information gathering to help inform future conversations with the government. SRSG Bangura said: "My visit is to gain first-hand knowledge, to listen, to hear the content of what is happening in relation to sexual violence, to be able to know what and where are the gaps, and what can we do to be able to work with the government and the national stakeholders on the ground to address this problem of sexual violence." The UN Special Representative on Sexual Violence in Conflict also praised Somali journalists covering the subject at a press briefing in Mogadishu on Wednesday (April 3), SRSG Bangura said a team of experts from her office would be deployed to Somalia in July 2013 to work alongside the Police Commissioner and the military to carry out a needs assessment for training and prosecution, and would provide assistance as requested.
