now just with the, the set of goals president dissolves the government and replaces the prime minister after the constitutional council rules against a delay of elections beyond april. the time of how much enjoy themselves. you rely from doing also coming up another mother wants her daughter as israel and leashes more depth and destruction

across gaza. for 152 days and count the south africa urges the you ins, top core to issue and emergency order on israel to allow aid into gaza. saying it may be the last opportunity to save people dying from starvation. the defense schools and businesses and the haiti are shut and people are leaving the capital after armed gangs war of a civil war. unless the prime minister resigns, the we begin in senegal, where after weeks of political turmoil and protests president, micky saw, has now dissolved the government. he's replaced prime minister. i'm a do by with the current interior minister. it's to allow bob who's the ruling coalitions, presidential candidate to focus on his campaign. the government has announced a new date for the delay presidential election for later this month. the decisions

come hours after sent a goal is constitutional court ruled that the election must be held before president solves mandate ends next month. all right, let's go straight to the capital of the car where we can speak to our correspondent nicholas hawk. nicholas with the new election date announced will it de escalate the situation and use the crisis as well? definitely will. is the crisis. this is really a tribute to democracy in sending all because after days of protest, let not by politicians, but by many civil society actors in the election date has finally been announced. and this is what people were waiting for the day or the date when the people of sending out will be able to choose who will replace president mackie saw there was fear, amongst many people that saul was, in fact, trying to cling on to power despite his efforts to appease to reassure seeing that

he will leave power on april 2nd, his 1st suggested date for an election was the december 15th, then came june. second. all those dates were rejected by the constitutional counsel, who is there not to protect the president, but the constitution of the country. and so for that was i've spoken to this is really a tribute to the institutions of democracy that were really tested in this final month. of present lucky solves mandate, where there's been so much protests to see. finally, this selection they take place. so march 24th with which will take place. and that means that it will be a shortening campaign. but these elections will finally take place mohammed and nicholas with this and is the bill being discussed in parliament? is this going to pay the way for popular opposition? leader? it was months sancho is released from prison. it was timing is key here on this

same moment. that there is an election date being announced. also this bill being put through parliament that could pay that way. as he mentioned, for perhaps the jail, the opposition leader respond sancho to be released. but she will not be able to meet a candidate to the elections. his, his down the in who his deputy by see who demi fire, who is also in prison, isn't expected to be released. she will be a candidate with clear is that the opposition is divided, which probably papers that way for the ruling party candidate, the prime minister i'm i do boss to be able to have a better score then what was anticipated. the issue at heart here though with this amnesty bill bill is all the crimes that have been committed. so this bill affects all those have been detained between march 2021 to february 22, 24,

and during political unrest, thousands of young people were picked up by the police rights group accused security forces of using the full force against them. 16 people were killed, they have, they have said that some people were tortured, all those crimes and with this, um, this, the bill being put through have been put under uh the carpet. meaning that it is or restart or removed a clean slate. so some say that this is at the detriment to the rule of law, but it is in an effort to rebuild the country's trust in its insist stations in the security forces in the government. and this is really important ahead of this much important election and election that's high in stakes because whoever is in power after march 2024 to will replace present microsoft will be at the helm of enormous wealth because san diego will start exporting liquefied

natural gas to europe, europeans that are trying to go away from russia for its gas needs and looking at after getting it to be sent, a go to replace those needs. so a really important election, not just for the senegalese people, for the region as a whole. and for europeans as well, that's a lot of as a lot of major developments in senegal, these past few hours. thanks for breaking it all down for us. nicholas that's out is here with nicholas hawk live for us from the car. all right, let's quickly remind you how synagogue got to this point. on the 3rd of february president mackie, sol announced the election scheduled for the end of the month. which postponed indefinitely solved, announcement followed the constitutional council's decision in january to exclude some prominent opposition members from the list of candidates. the president's decision sparked a month long period of unrest and the west african nation. earlier my colleague, natalia tay, spoke to until about

a car who was an opposition presidential candidate from the a r c party. she says, microsoft tried everything to delay the elections, the president that has finally decided to respect what the constitutional counsel has asked him to do. and the cynical leads before required from him. it was the last, the expected from the president himself, himself, which was to organize the presidential election before april seconds. at the end of the day, the main question that remains is why, which performed these elections in the 1st place. because he 1st mentioned and talked about institutional crisis. today, we have to prove the city got used in the institutional crisis and in the form of christ. as you probably mentioned earlier or someone else mentioned, his goal was to probably reopen the list of the candidates to be able to add new copy dates to dudley. and at the end of the day that also did not happen. so i would election was held hostage and was told to no good reason. and

today we're getting this news that it's happening on march 24th. well, i've got a date, we have been fighting for these past weeks and months to make sure that the president, but the so called the election before april 2nd. and today we are getting exactly what he wants it. can. i just ask what you make us a president's house decision. today, you say that it was unexpected. why do you think it? why do you think he's decided to go down this path is, is that he was just backed into a corner by the constitutional counsel decision. yes he was, and it's the pressure that he received from everybody, from the constitutional counsel, from the candidates, from the people often a go from the media, national media, international media. we did not just let this happen because how do we not fuck the fight? maybe we will not get the good results that we have. this is i what i, when we actually got what you want to. i don't think it came from president smoking

so willingly, just deciding to say i will be organizing these evictions before april 2nd. he tried and did everything in his power to make sure that these elections do not take place instead of go the in gaza. there is no in israel's relentless bombardment and it's worth starvation. at least 5 people including were killed when is really forces targeted a mosque near jamalia in northern gaza. i mean the rising number of injuries, the u. n. has warned that there are attempts to get a trucks and the guys are failing, housed, and in health ministry says at least 18 people have died of hunger. michael, apple reports and women scream piece is the chaos of the salt. last mosque in jamalia and northern gaza. following is riley shannon rescue teams rushed to the side several bodies. okay. from under the rubble,

some are like the doctors can do nothing for several children brought along confirming with all the parents with nice thing. the minute the most good to value was directly targeted without warning. children were playing the the most because they normally do. suddenly the most coach bombarded killing people in india. and now there's, this is the enemy's talk in children's dates comes in many forms in god's palestinians, a dying from bombardment and from starvation. the desperation evidence is they screwed up. what's the aid they can find amongst the debt to the model? we are collecting this food from the prompt. we are unable to get that kind of sol, dns or anything which supplies is not the reaching us. we are picking the bins from the ground. i have no idea how we can to through i'm about makes them deliver this

stuff to where we are. when the other one the old food program says widespread hung. it is unnecessary, but israel is blocking the aid convoys and say little countries, a dropping food into gaza cannot meet the needs on the ground. we have food enough to feed 2200000 people just outside guys. we just need to make sure that we are able to negotiate the access into the different parts of cars, north and the south to make sure that the trucks are able to get it to the people that they, the drops would never be able to replace that oh yeah, the she hugs, her daughter was the as lifeless body and things. you're a piece of my heart. it's a broken one to like so many others and garza. yeah. like level older they're in south africa has asked for you is top core to impose additional emergency measures

against israel, which it says is breaching the ones already in place. south africa says palestinian children are starving to death as the direct result of israel's actions. it's urge the world court to take the measures without scheduling another round of hearings, citing the extreme urgency of the situation. and it statement to the i, c, j, south africa, says it's compelled to return to the court in light of the new fact, particularly the situation of widespread starvation brought about by the continuing egregious breaches of the convention on the prevention and punishment of the crime of genocide and it's ongoing manifest violations of the provisional measures indicated by this court on 26, january 2024. jonathan cook top is an international human rights lawyer. he says there are solid legal grounds for south africa's request. i think the request is very proper under international law, people seem to forget that it is the obligation of israel under international law to provide food and basic services to the people under this occupation. not only

has its way of failed to meet that obligation which has also obstructed and prevented others from bringing food in as part of a deliberate strategy. just of the senior people. in fact, it was announced, we will have cut off food. we've got a water. we will let low fuel and we will let a lot of these things it. and then they started allowing you in, in a drip drip fashion. we will allow if you address here, little a few tracks there, but we will also control not only how much food comes in and what kind of food comes in. we also want to control who does the distribution and how safeguards these convoys in the beginning it was the police who would save god these card voice. but then is there have started targeting these please?

because the uniform sometimes they are on. so they closer to them, any combatants members of a mass and issued them. then after a while, the convoys have no protection to protect them. once they come in, britain sworn secretary, david cameron says he's held quote, a tough but necessary conversation with his really work cabinet member been against about the situation in gaza. at a meeting in london, he said, israel must allow more aid and to the strip that followed gaps a diplomatic mission to washington. this week on tuesday, cameron spoke of the dreadful suffering in gaza. u. k is seen regular protests and recent months, calling for a cease fire. this is not a huge set of things we've off these various to do, but i have to report to you'll know chips has the mind debate because here in february it was about hoff what built in in january. so patients needs to run very finn and a whole series of warnings need to be given. israel's far right government has

approved plans to build 3 and a half 1000 new, subtler homes, and they occupied westbank. the organization piece now says the units will be built in the legal settlements of molly. i do mean a fraud and car israel's far right finance minister, but it's a little small trench warrant of an expansion. after a shooting incident in one of the settlements 2 weeks ago, have this on her with the reports from occupied easters. these really government essentially approving of 3500 housing units in the 3 different illegal settlements across the occupied west bank. this is the 1st time since the beginning of the war on october 7th that we have seen approvals for housing units in illegal settlements now in the leading up to the war as well in this time period in occupied east jerusalem is 3700 housing units in illegal settlements were approved. now this came after israel's finance minister. a known alternation always fits on as smart,

rich had said that there would be a legal settlements expanding in retaliation for a shooting that took place actually at one of the settlements back in february. now it is worth mentioning, he's not just the countries finance winters, so it's finished, administered, excuse me. he also holds a role within israel's defense ministry. so he is in charge of some civil affairs within the occupied west bank, primarily those that would oversee and approve at settlement housing unit. so i don't have to go through this long drawn out process, they can be approved at his demand. additionally, what we are seeing is comments from him that were made this morning. he said that in the last year there had been $18515.00 housing units in illegal settlements that have been approved in the last year. so we can expect in the occupied westbank construction to begin on those 3 legal settlements,

totaling in $3500.00 housing units. at least 3 sailors have been killed and there was the attack on a cargo ship in the gulf of either that's according to us central command. these are the 1st fatalities in truth, these began its attacks on commercial shipping in protest against israel's war on gaza. the greek operators of the vessel say the true confidence was struck. 90 kilometers off the coast of either the ship is reportedly adrift and on fire. there were 20 crew members on board and 3 armed body guards. she hovered tonchee reports from washington. the us central come on down depends again, save of a vessel hit was a ball day, those flag, liberian owned boat carrier that was transiting the gulf of 8. and it's very difficult to tell from that whether there is any u. s. connection as we, who with these claim given the past with the, the lack of transparency, the flags of convenience and international shipping. we tend to going to give us some more information there about the context of this latest attack. they say it's

the 5th and the ship, ballistic missile 5 by the who. these are the last 2 days, 2 of those missiles impacted to shipping vessels. and one of the shut down by the u . s. s. comic who these say that they will continue targeting vessels linked to what they call the as rarely genocide as long as it continues as long as the us allows it to continue. but there's no change in policy from the state department, aust. as to how successful u. s. policy is of determine the parents and degradation of who's the capabilities map middle of the state. department spokesman simply said it's a long term price task, but apparently still the $1.00 the one elements of us are still don't have consent . drink is stopping or attempting to stop was there with you? say is a genocide and does she ever times the out? is there a washington still they had on al jazeera. i'm john henry in north carolina, one of the many super tuesday states with nikki haley last after that. she's about

is asked to you in stop core to impose additional emergency measures against israel, which it says is breaching though is already in place. stop applicants, as palestinian children are starving to death as a direct result of israel's actions. at least 3 sailors have been killed in there for with the attack on a cargo ship and the goal provided that's according to us central command. these are the 1st 3 talary since for these began its attacks on commercial shipping in protest against israel's war on cost. the eighty's capital remains mostly paralyzed by violence with gangs warning of civil war. if prime minister already a long re doesn't step down, i'll re, is still in puerto rico. unable to return home, there's been a surgeon violence in the past week since he left the country and a bid for international aid aid he is in a state of emergency. the international airport in port of prince remains closed, and most businesses have shut down. washington says is not calling for haiti's prime minister to resign, but does want him to speed up a transition to inclusive governance and ensure

a free and fair elections. it's not the united states acting alone in this. so with this regard, it's the united states, in consultation with partners and there in the region are having these conversations. and what we are saying to the prime minister is that he needs to expedite the transition to empowered and inclusive governance. including the, the, the appointment of a transition counsel. so that's what we'll continue to, to discuss with him. daniel foot served as the us special envoy to haiti and 2021. he says washington's reluctance to see are real on re step down is not helping the situation. it's not up to the united states. and they have been asking area on reed for 12 years to form a transition government and to have a dialogue with civil society and opposition. and he's refused to do so. so at this point in the past week, the protest in haiti have turned into an all our revolution and you have the lead.

so right with the oligarchs align with the former army guys align with the gags. everybody wants this guy gone, but by waiting so long, i mean us is still, it still looks like they want him to go back there. the issue is, if he goes back there, he's not going to survive. and i don't mean his prime minister key will not live through the month if he goes back there. so the united states really should scratches head and, and figure out what is the right thing to do for, hey, it's not our, your and the us nikki haley is pulled out of the race for the republican presidential nomination after a crushing defeat. and the super tuesday primaries, she congratulated her opponent donald trump. it did not endorse them or withdraw, says the stage for trump bite and re match in the presidential election in november . john henry and reports from raleigh, north carolina. a crowd of nikki haley came closer to the

white house than any republican woman in us history. she overcame a field of debate rivals she dismissed as the phyllis which she could not overcome. former president donald trump, after a delegate drubbing and 14 of the 15 states on super tuesday, she ended her campaigns, acknowledging that or improbable path to victory was now all but impossible. the time has now come to suspend my campaign. the former south carolina governor and united nations and basset are made history, is the 1st republican woman running for president to we in a primary defeating trump in vermont in the district of columbia. and did it as the daughter of indian immigrants. my mother, a 1st generation emigrate, got to vote for her daughter for president, only in america. his record has been she sought to lead a more traditional non mag republican party,

back by deep pocketed donors. and she increasingly traded barb's with her arrival. at some point, maybe we should say, the reason that america keeps losing is because of donald trump, a, by the way, she's not up to the job. but in state after state, republican voters answered with overwhelming support for trump. she pointed to lead decline to endorse arrival, exciting a quote from former british prime minister, margaret satcher. never just follow the crowd. always make up your own mind, as it is now up to donald trump to earn the votes of those in our party and beyond . it who did not support whether he really will ultimately endorse donald trump remains an open question, and there's competition for her supporters. president joe biden said he would welcome them into his campaign. the delegate, math was all but insurmountable after trumps of near sweep, on super tuesday,

with 1215 delegates needed for the republican nomination. trump is tantalizingly close. with 995, john henry and l. g 0. raleigh, north carolina. protesters and mexico have knocked down a door to the presidential palace while the president was inside, giving his daily press conference. they were demanding justice for 43 students who disappeared a decade ago. the abduction by cartel and guerrero estate has been the focus of a long running investigation. a government human rights commission said the incident involved law enforcement officials. john holeman reports from mexico city will happen and wednesday morning seem to have been a little more frustration than anything else. this semester will probably submit skirt behind us. it's where the president, under his manual lopez over the lips and gets his morning press conferences. and you can see that there's a standing camp in front of it. these people were hits protests. the lack of the resolution of the case of 43 students who with disappeared in the country now

almost a decade ago, that case has been envelope become emblematic in mexico, of the mood, 100000 people, the missing in total. now this is the last day of the standing camp. what they were looking for was a meeting with the countries president. he had a wanted to give them that meeting and a group of younger protest as a went round to the side. come and did a truck and then reversed that truck into the side doors to try and get into the palace and into the morning press conference. they didn't get ready for. they were repelled almost instantly by military police wielding gas a riot shields. but the causes of bed dissatisfaction remained. they write scripts, say that the president opens over the door, seemed keen to help resolve this case. but this time is going on and especially as the mexican army, which a key is a key pillar of support for this government began to seem to be involved. more or more in the case is becoming increasingly reluctant to release information for his

administration. and it's a general attorney to release information to help solve the dots with these protests is want to try and clear up with them. he said that he's now going to give them a meeting in $1520.00 days once. he's looked at the evidence trip to see what happens next, john home and how does it a mexico city to thousands of protesters have taken to the streets across columbia against president gustavo pitt, throws push for economic and social reforms. the presidents attempts the overall health care pension and labor laws are facing widespread opposition. demonstrators also accused petros government of targeting, former president of auto or the big roof president, dean i bought a lot of the day has appointed gustavo, audrey hines. and as the new prime minister is predecessor out of best author, all the step down and made corruption accusations under the odds and re previously served as part of his representative to the organization of american states in
