6:03 pm
but says the case is not linked to terrorism or to you or your shop, or whoever is standing by for us and moscow with reaction out of russia. and will also be live in the french capital with a natasha butler in just a moment. first of burnett smith. although i don't think we're going to have bernard smith here because he begins our coverage from paris, or it's impossible to fully secure thousands of kilometers a french railway lines. a weakness exposed by these attacks on crucial signaling equipment. this is cause the northern france when the full locations targeted with fires was set and cables caught some time on thursday night. it's a friday morning, april the high speed rail network to a halt across most of the country, multiple dere consumer out there. today, all the information we have clearly shows that it was deliberate. the simultaneous nature vans were found from which people had fled, particularly in the southeast as incendiary agents were found on the side.
6:04 pm
everything now points to the fact that these were awesome attacks, particularly the timing, which is more than a suspicious incognito. the travel plans of more than 800000 royal passengers up and sabotage lines connecting powers to cities in the north east west. i'm the united kingdom have been effected. old travelers have been advised to postpone that journeys. will fit deeply about it. yeah, yeah. that's what we had prepared. so there are a lot of people in copeland they became but honestly we've thought that was multi to being on the lines effected by the maybe games and normal breakdowns. we didn't think we would have to mobilize, but obviously we're going to repair already on the way. but the royal network is expected to be severely disrupted, at least until the end of the weekend. the crippling of the railways is being seen as a clear attempt to overshadow the stock. james, there is unprecedented security. would you rather talk to the trains, bound of ability, unexplored students?
6:05 pm
and i'll just i'm going to say in paris. so we're going to head through. we're natasha butler, who is joining us live in natasha. what sort of impact is this trained network attack having, i mean, just a couple of hours before the opening ceremony of the no, there's no doubt the, the sort of grey, rainy weather. and these multiple austin attacks on the phone says a round network of cost a shadow over the beginning of these and then big gains. you have a situation of which some 800000 people traveling, and frauds have been impacted. many of them gave and holidays, some of them died moving around full deal and paint games. and we've heard from french authorities and investigations the norms. they all saying that they going to find the perpetrators. but it certainly feels a sense of anxiety amongst some people here in the capital, just a few hours before the evening. so everybody gets underway already and opening ceremonies as controversial because it is the 1st time in games history that it is being held outside the stadium. that is being held right in the center of paris on
6:06 pm
the river said some people have said that that's most sensible because it is a huge security risk. bought the organizers of the games. and if i divorce ease of said that they have put everything in place, which huge security operation to try and make sure that is safe for the hundreds and thousands of people that are going to be lining the river in the center of the capital over the policy few weeks and days and well particular days i should say the center of power is really high speed and they look down. all right. and, and natasha from your conversations with people there in the capital are, are they concerned about security? what's the mood impairs? i think it's a bit of a mix that's cool. some people are concerned about security because the opening ceremony is taking place right in the sense that there's also a lot of excitements about will this open evening start when he's getting to look like we've heard recently from the autistic director of
6:07 pm
a. so if he's talking about something i'm vicious and daring a real spectacle, you're going to see 7000 the athletes on the boat scattering along this 6 columbus, a route along the river in the center of the century. the historic and famous landmarks of monuments, the powers acting as a black dropped from note to them to the eiffel tower. so there's no doubt that it will be very magical if it is actually safe and it goes smoothly and according to pine, even if the weather is quite what the organizes were, just wanted to know once a week and then pick holes and is late if the games will begin as well. the focus, organize this hope will be very much on this force even though that have been some control sees in this game. those are things like the participation of russian estimates of his really estimates. but again, people all very much hoping for the next few weeks. i want about inspiring sport. and that's about politics, even though we know it's very difficult to keep those 2 things upon. it is indeed a natasha butler reporting from the capital. a parents. thank you. so much i a and
6:08 pm
your your shop a whole lot of joins us now for moscow separately. you yeah. a 40 year old russian man is under investigation and connection with an alleged attempt to disrupt the paras olympics. what more have you been able to learn so yes, indeed, this is how countries there are talks about a possible russian trace in connection with the disruptions at high speed row way. facilities in front of the tools have been prompted by this arrest of a russian national, according to the french slide safety chains. and the alleged russian agent who had reported they being recruited by the f as b. he and rush overland about his arrest, about 2 or 3 days ago, and it's not clear when exactly he had been arrested. but it definitely happened well before i let him pick, opening the other big opening ceremony and uh well before the uh,
6:09 pm
the disruptions of the french roller facilities we've had from criminal spokesman to meet your best called, who has said that the kremlin does not have information about the, the tensional that russian national and the all they have seen just as media reports when the sun, but the detain time, as you mentioned, is a full 0 russian national, whose name is korea, who has no. and he was born in the city of param and started to become a lawyer. he, in most cutting graduates with the master's degree, he enjoyed some sort of glamorous lifestyle and works as a chef and powers. and the number of french is key results. um, who was a kind of a blog as well. and uh, back in may, he reportedly was on his way to paris with a transfer entered keir, but in a symbol he got so long that he was not allowed to pause the play then who was even blacklisted back. and then griggs know drove to baldera by call where he was, where he got drunk again and began telling runs and people that he who is going to
6:10 pm
paris on that secret mission. and let's have a reporting on that. the rest of the powers prosecutor's office said that they found evidence indicating that he was a member of the russian special services and according to a number of 4 and publications. and if his b i. d condos found in his apartment, so good as no was charged with as pen osh and now he faces up to says he is in prison. but when to stand that the french side blames him for attempting to disrupt the opening olympics on instructions from the says, be your shop of all over the talking to us from moscow. thank you so much. we have for your reporting and the french government has promised an unprecedented security operation to point as many as 45000 personnel. and they include 815000 french military members, 250 british officers,
6:11 pm
50 specially trained dogs and the 1750 police from countries from spain, germany, south korea and guitar. all the opening ceremony along a 6 kilometers stretch of the river. some will showcase 10500, at least representing 206 national olympic communities. and more than get this a whopping $320000.00 fans are expected to watch from the river banks, but access to central powers will be restricted. right, and i'm joined now by a and g to shelly. she is a specialist and global security and she comes to us from paris a very good day. it's raining on their parade. this is the day, obviously, that paris and france is supposed to shine and hopefully it will. what does the security breach reveal about the threats assessment?
6:12 pm
the one i sent you the fund raising me 1st and it was to tell you that 1st of all of all the means have been and the brides and the security mats are incorrect. since many monkeys a i would say, even years a. so uh, what the differential, sorry to have done is to, to think about any kind of scenarios and to him to grim that's a machine all there ms. you and to shoot you into a system, the city system that has been that okay. mentions as seen. so many weeks now. um the so uh easy, oh is it so the ran into the fact that uh there is no they no 0 risk. you know, of course the, you know, premium knows, uh, i'd say even terry's recreate keeping, trying to find a new brace brush in the very strong security center to tell you we've never seen
6:13 pm
that before. i sent you the same sort of system imposed on the other, the french reputation, and specifically the very hands once. so it's in pricey. what we've got used to, to that since many weeks know is a level of frustration. so we have this sort of cool that it's due to the scripts and the many strengths we were exposed to. so that the, i mean, so what i think is notes back to the hor, securities that have been prevented since many weeks. no. okay. so it's, let's say a, it's a, it's gone 10 way to change. i completely understand it's contained, but it doesn't bode well. does it? i think anybody who has lived in, in, in france or where spent any time in france understands that the high speed trading
6:14 pm
network is a vital piece of infrastructure. i have to tell you, i was honestly, really surprised that this proved to be so vulnerable. um, you know, were you surprised by the fact that, you know, this turned out to be a blind spot or security measures are simply not working? well, i seen the in these cases uh, i really you let you know, to be sure uh our premium knows to, to succeed in such a peroration. that means that they need to have some evidence of a, let's say, associates. so it's, it's possible that these are also going to in town and let's say police, of course i'll do a, do you call them uh, loops within the railway transportation the company. and so, if you will just want to use a crown,
6:15 pm
weighs needing some to so on. you need to have the good in tell, you know, the to 6 is a. so is the reason why i'm sending you that. so is that the so or so exposed, so of the that you said he just has to be sure you succeed, you need to have the right location and knowledge of the system to be use, how to destroy it. so it's one of the, let's say the, the window and the direction of the current investigation. the no, i'm the just trying the talking to us from parents. so specialist in global security, thank you for your time. thank you. the next to gosh, hour is really fighter jets have carried out a new wave of air strikes, targeting various areas across the strip,

6:17 pm
shutting continues ers trace continues across the gauze was true. and not only that, some people are still profit. we're talking about 6 days for policy news. the were on able to leave because they simply did not have any time to these. these really forces through the leaf slats and then the artillery selling started pound thing with the residential areas and houses in the eastern parts of con eunice. so those who did not manage our trust and those who manage to evacuate are, are, are scattered across the street we have with us to have can on. she's one of those thomaston hughes who evacuated and was forced to leave her house in the eastern parts of hon. eunice, she loves from hon. eunice to dead in buff. um, how about how long have the welcome have my time have you didn't have enough time to help us, you know, to,
6:18 pm
to sleep. but you were able to come to do that about how can you please tell me more about your experience, especially on that day. where is riley's have sent you the flyers, and that's how this displacement is the 7th displacement in a row. i. if your friend in the middle telling how why we're not able to attack or take anything with us and then from hon. eunice, we had to be displaced again after we received a message online on our phone. and we went to the eastern side that was close to us from han eunice as we were leaving, trying to evacuate the from the eastern area. there were a letter of children who are carrying their few things and women are also carrying. we're quite carry in some water gallons trying to get as much as they
6:19 pm
could. it was dramatic and tragic scene and unfortunately that our people are subjected to. so when i saw that this air strike and all those people who had to evacuate, i've tried to anticipate the situation and to leave. so i stayed with my neighbor and then now my son is also displaced and i don't know where he hit and he is. so i'm trying to look for him. so this is our story. it's a series of genocide that started in 1948 and then move to loveland on the now it's back again. and the international and the world conscious does not. we kept it in order to put an end to those genocide against our people. i hope that the war will end soon. so to have is one of the thousands of hundreds of policy in use to evacuated multiple
6:20 pm
times from different areas across the gaza strip. have son is missing and she's still looking for him in the tons imbedded by the hand for 3 days now, she could not find him. well, this is one of the stories, but there are numerous stories for every single person who has been evacuated multiple times from place to another policy, news has been exhausted and drained from the fact that they are evacuating every single time with a little bit of time at everyone is saying that the barely had a couple of minutes to evacuate from hun you and this, but so far they were caused to move and to evacuate to the middle area, which is the so called human syrian zone. but even the humanitarian zone and the area that is recognized, safe as there is early forces has, is, is also being targeted where the locks the hospital just receive to palestinians. that wizard kills and is ready air strikes on a good age. in the middle of the cause of stripped from
6:21 pm
a holiday or reporting from the central guy. so thank you very much for that. thank you. and i'm us leader and the occupied westbank has died and is really custody. the palestinian prisoners clubs says and the sofa who are all died in israel. the hospital he had been transferred there from raymond prison because of his deteriorating health. the 63 year old was being held under administrative detention. as many as how many most of the home and i took all the way out of the full responsibility lies on those have arrested him and you as medical history and health history. he's a sick prisoner who suffers for many health problems with blood platelets and enzymes. it's considered an execution in mind of the sick prisoner with the risk without providing him with the necessary medical services and without providing him with food that suits his health conditions. may well united nations security council is holding an open meeting about the worsening humanitarian crisis and got some officials from on raw and ambassadors to the un have called
6:22 pm
a state of affairs and goes off a catastrophe. and they urge the security council to take action. algeria, china and russia called for the meeting, christmas salumi is the lie for you or as the un headquarters in new york or christian. why did they call for this meeting now as well? members of the security council wanted to highlight the humanitarian situation in gaza. perhaps no coincidence that a prime minister, benjamin netanyahu of israel is in the united states at this time, in fact, russia, china, and algeria, russia holding the presidency of the council, called for this meeting after his speech to congress. and we heard the latest on the dire situation for the people of gaza in this meeting from henri officials and
6:23 pm
also the deputy middle east coordinator for the region. they talked about people's inability to satisfy their basic needs, food, clean water, medical care, all of that being impacted by the continued displacement and in security and lawlessness in the region as a result of the ongoing attacks most recently. and the ongoing attacks and the con unice area where hundreds of people have remained trapped despite evacuation orders, many of them with limited mobility and unable to flee the latest file edge violence with a communicable diseases on the rise. and then you factor in the attacks on the aid workers that have been happening. the united nations has reported 3 in the last week in a couple of cases. clearly marked vehicles that gave their coordinates to is really
6:24 pm
forces and the ability to help the people there on the ground as fighting continues, is just a dire the algerian ambassador describe the situation as a worse than a crisis to choose a cup of the roof happening in real time on while what challenging the very essence of our humanity and to become of the way we cannot remain silent. and we must not fail to act the eyes of history upon us and the voices of gods, of suffering people equal in this very tremble. and again, this was a meeting called by l. jerry of china and russia after
6:25 pm
a prime minister benjamin not. and then yahoo speech to congress in which he claim that israel was doing everything and could to avoid civilian casualties. and in fact, civilian casualties in the area of ross, our quote practically none rushes and bassett, or vast selena bens, the seemingly attempting to refute those claims. described reports of children being killed, palestinian children being killed by snipers, gunshot wounds to the head. he called collective punishment. what's happening in gaza that would be an international, a violation of international law. he called in to attempt to eliminate the civilian population, whereas china, called on israel and the united states, to use its power to effect israel, to call for an end of the hostilities. there that was really the message that we heard from the majority of speakers in the council. the need for
6:26 pm
a ceasefire. christmas one we're reporting. thank you. and i'd like to welcome now or georgia. so petra pool, so he is the head of the you weren't humanitarian affairs office in garza, i'm told he's just left the strip on friday morning and joyce has now from occupied east jerusalem. so share with us what you saw in gaza and that's getting the picture of him. indeed, as other people have come good that we find a location, orders and operations a couple of weeks ago, both of you guys are sitting in northern garza and on the 22nd of this month in con eunice, effectively about uh, i would say uh, 15 percent of what the, these are the choices quotes. each monetary zone has now been closed off to 2 people and services. we've lost 20 food points, 10 water points. thousands of children are out of emergency education services and thousands of women and girls not being forced into
6:27 pm
a more and more condensed velocity, coastal zone where even the 8 that we are able to provide now doesn't deliver on time due to just this year, congestion hope this time of year and the smaller geographic area where millions of people and the workers are forced to work and we see the recreation as on giving us displaced from you, just east to west and from the guys up north. you saw the thousands and thousands in town, eunice, and a trickle of people from the north. and sadly, those who cannot decide to remain in the north anymore. and must choose the very dangerous crossing of the chart of point because of this year needs to survive. this year need to protect your children. or in many cases, at least we try done some very terrible stories. a parents must care for child with,
6:28 pm
with mental health issues, disabilities, the elderly, and these people, these, the people have to sometimes, uh, 16 kilometers inside of the roads, without water, often under fire, under cross fire, under direct fire, until the safety of the us military. well, some points into very often unknown southern guys, a situation where their friends and relatives have caused them to say that even in the south, we have a very difficult time getting the services of these monetary face that we, that we need to get. so as you're describe this ever increasing dire situation, you know, there's another, you know, united nations security council meeting on the humanitarian crisis in gaza, which you have seen firsthand, which is now beyond catastrophic what really needs to happen. now. i think for, for months and months waiting pretty uh,
6:29 pm
pretty clear about what happens next uh, in a situation like this, we seem very, a lot of terminology used for this crisis or tragedy. and so what i hope, what would happen next is that the displaced in the hostages go home, and if there's a note to the war, if the war continues, what must happen. it's not the 1st or the test to have some of the tyranny, but we know how to do some of the to a need. we know a lot to 8 people that are the tragic war we must be allowed to do. so we have to have a septic supply to be effective, supplying it workers. we have to have the health system, the worst. we have to have communications and we have to have absolute protection of civilians from all sides to this conflict. now unfortunately, at this stage, at the time of this conversation, it doesn't seem like there will be any let up and the violence and there's no change, of course in israel. so a campaign, the status of the ceasefire. negotiations is frankly unclear at the moment and in the us we have
6:30 pm
a lame duck president. so if this continues for another 2 months, 6 months, or would that mean at the moment? um, we have over the many months deteriorated system of delivery of what people need um, the water supply system. even the roads have turned some time back into uh, into south and it's a very fine sound. the run, the trucks get stuck. people cannot, well don't the cards get stuck. and we're at the point, i want to just pay the picture for you. what's the point where logistics best specialists have gone from talking about fuel trucks to talk to you about father and don't keys. we're regressing decades back into the systems that we have to use to support the people in casa, and i wish i hope, i hope that we can rely on good understanding of it, regardless of politics and elections. the humanity, the,
6:31 pm
the understanding that people should be a lot to help people this monetary need to, to go and help these people should be enabled and supported. um we have uh, we have a funding request. we have several solutions and ideas of progressive ideas, innovation that we've, we've had with the governments of his room. 12 or more of those need to see the light they need to be allowed to be attempted be is an opening of more crossings via the allowance of more power from power lines, from israel into the guys spirit and more capacity for the united nations. and, and use to help the people who need one place where we could start immediately. and i hope i will be something you see very soon would be the creation of those injured . and those chronically due to places where they can see the medical care and that
6:32 pm
because they're treasure. so federal policy is the head of guys as you weren't office of coordination of humanitarian affairs. thank you, sir. did you? i, as i still had here on al jazeera, 2 of the world's most wanted fugitive alleged leaders of mexico's in a little while drug cartel arrested in texas. and is for to will be live in paris as the world's best. the athletes prepare to go for gold at the olympics, that's all coming up with peter. the paddler, the pots of south america, switching on the something of a winter, a heat wave. we got high pressure in charge across from the central and northern areas keeping very hot and dry. but this front is the dividing line between that
6:33 pm
heat up in the north and very cold conditions down in the south. so temperature is well above the average for much of power y as well as bolivia, we've got a state of emergency that's to cut being declared in santa cruz state that's expected to last till the end of the year. thanks to wild fires as well. the extreme weather, clinging on with high temperatures, pushing us into sack today it's much colder for the south of this. we've got some very wet and windy weather pulling into patagonia with gale to severe gale force winds, with a weather as well continues left across more move in areas with bouts of rain moving from columbia into venezuela. and that rain drenched those pots of central america as well with heavy falls to come from panama, stretching through costa rica on woods to belize and the yucatan peninsula. in mexico. the northern and central areas of mexico will continue to see some very heavy rain on friday. into fact today, thanks to a trailing weather front,
6:34 pm
putting across the gulf of mexico, the us every talk to the digital filibuster of them, the data from china's expansion and visions. it's not up to the people in taiwan to the side about the one china policy to israel, aggressive doctrine, genocidal rhetoric and genocide, intensity with genocide and intense light is really government would not to 30000 defense of thousands of thousands that would be hundreds of thousands of dollars is that left the house and the stucco, some of the toughest issues of our time had to hit coming soon on a jersey to be honest. it was an irving. my name is how i was abducted by the c. i a, in 2004, a german citizen was kidnapped and tortured by c on the chain of me into interpretation. a powerful documentary tells the story of how the geo politics of
6:35 pm
the post 911 when we were in the life of an innocent bill, my suitcase phone, which is here, a newer the flower, you're watching your ultra 0 reminder of our top story is this our highest speed trains in france sabotaged ahead of the opening ceremony of the paris olympics. authorities report damage to signaling and fires at several sides. teams have been deployed to carry out repairs and many high speed trains are not running affecting
6:36 pm
800000 travelers. although some wires are slowly resuming operations, authorities say services are fully expected to return to normal. by monday, i've been goss i is really strange to across the strip have killed at least 21 people. much of the salt is focused on us and the self. i'm awesome, it's fighters. targeted is really tags in the city with rocket propelled grenades. former us president brock obama and michelle obama have endorsed commer harris has been to become the next president. the obama phone, the presumptive democratic party nominee, while she was out campaigning to offer their support. i am proud of you. this is going to be historic. we called to say, michelle and i couldn't be prouder to endorse here and to do everything we can to get you through the selection of and then so they all blogs. oh my goodness. michelle practice mean so much to me. i'm looking forward to doing this with the 2
6:37 pm
of you. all right, let's get you more. alan fisher standing by life from the white house allen in terms of, you know, the obama's offering, their supports in or your high level in terms of added value. how much does that help, what kind of rule could they play? well, no, it states the total was, i mean, the reality is the obama is doing with almost every other significant, bigger. and the democratic party has done since sunday, which is through their weight. bind pamela, how this is taking longer than many people expected, but it's here. no, no, it is important, but it hasn't given the huge boost in the polls. it hasn't helped with fundraising because she's already busting of. busy of fund raising targets. there was a huge zooming meeting on wednesday of white voters, white women voters for camelot. it essentially broke zoom is being the biggest meeting in history. and so she's raising all this money. so essentially,
6:38 pm
the obama is just joining in with everyone else. it was important that they gave hearts they gave heart their support. but it came a bit late. sadly, on sunday, it felt as if there were hedging their bets to see where the democratic party was going. but very quickly, by monday morning, wouldn't you exactly where they were heading. and that was to make, come a, how does the democratic know many alan, it was very staged. i think she use it right away or for her campaign on the democratic party is, is all fired off. i mean, there's, so when susie asked to put, you know, she's preaching to the converted, how does it actually translate to convincing those who those photos were still on the fence or apathetic potential voters? i mean, is she making any in roads there as well? it should go to buttons because of what happened since the we can, there's no doubt about that. and not bonuses sadly slightly under donald trump's phones. every candidate gets
6:39 pm
a boost in the poles after the convention of donald trump would have been sent me back on friday morning, expecting to see that. but that's being undermined by the events of the we can remain. but there's still a long way to go before the election in november, but certainly you've got to remember that a lot of people, a lot of people didn't want either job. i know donald trump running is the candidates. they wanted another option. and suddenly, because of circumstances they have that they have someone who is not drunk, who is not buying, and they will give her a look. and it's going to be the undecided voters who will decide that. the moment the hottest campaign is suggesting a lot of those undecided voters might just start preaching for her. and certainly we're seeing that she's improving the poll numbers in states where joe biden was way behind. so if she can continue that momentum, then this race is really open. and you wouldn't have said that a week ago,
6:40 pm
alan fisher reporting from the white house. thank you. so us federal agents have arrested one of the world's most want of drug lords in texas. is mailers and bought, also known as m. i o, is the co founder of the notorious mexican. so in a lower car town, he was detained along with walk in guzman lopez, the son of al chapo guzman, another drug kingpin who is currently in prison in the united states or mexico. security minister says she was surprised by that detaches, but the mexican authorities have been informed by the us and a julia ago yano has more now from mexico city. as we know, this arrest was a joint effort between the d. a and the fbi. i both organizations, i've already released statement saying that the rest of that these 2 most wanted men will deal blows,
6:41 pm
