| Pakistan: Children hit hardest, relief not coming fast enough | |
| AlJazeeraEnglish | 29 August 2010 The town of Sujawal in Sindh province has become the latest major casualty of the floods. Waters from the Indus river surged into the town on Sunday after breaching a levee. Most of the 250,000 residents fled before the floodwaters submerged the town. Meanwhile, Pakistani troops have been battling for several days to save the nearby historic city of Thatta, where at least 300,000 people have already evacuated. The UN and its partners are providing assistance to millions of flood victims, but so far they\\\'ve only managed to raise two thirds (pledged and delivered) of the 460 million dollars needed for the relief effort. And as Imtiaz Tyab reports, the lack of aid on the ground is taking its toll. | |

| Security tops Israeli-Palestinian talks | |
| AlJazeeraEnglish | 30 August 2010 Security, is one of the key issues for Israel in the upcoming peace talks. Binyamin Netanyahu, the Israeli prime minister has already said Israel\\\'s security demands will come first before any discussions on borders and final status issues. Among Israel\\\'s security concerns is the Jordan valley. This is an area that was occupied in 1967 and is meant to be part of a future Palestinian state. Israel, however, wants to maintain a military presence in the Jordan Valley to make sure it remains a buffer zone protecting Israel from any external threat. It insists that any future Palestinian state must be \\\'demilitarized\\\' which raises the question for whom will the Palestinian state be providing security Palestinians or Israelis? Al Jazeera\\\'s Nisreen El-Shamayleh reports from the West Bank. | |
