[ beeping ] nigeria's president condemns back-to-back bomb attacks that killed over 100 people - as evil. former egyptian president hosni mubarak is sentenced to three years in gaol for embezzlement. five men are convicted in one of russia's high profile

murder cases. the son of the murdered woman says guilty people are out there. >> i'm robin adams and a football team that surprised many. more from the n.b.a. finals as miami's big guns get their title defense back on track. evil - that is the word nigeria's president goodluck jonathan used to describe twin bomb attacks that killed over 100 people. no one claimed responsibility. analysts say the blast bears the hallmarks of boko haram. emergency services are searching flow the rubble. it could be the worst attack by far. the two explosions took place in jos, ripping through a market and bus terminal. we have this report. >> reporter: the target was a

busy marketplace near a bus terminal and railway station. the bomb was packed in a minivan, designed to cause as many deaths as possible. >> there was the explosion. by the time i went there i look at a lot of dead bodies. >> a second blast in a car packed with explosives. it hit some initial response teams. >> lessons learnt is that when there's a bomb there's bound to be a secondary explosion. every person will lay on the floor. >> a fire broke out that gutted the bus station and badly burnt many of the dead. jos has been a flashpoint for violence in the past. it has seen two years of relative peace until now. apparently part of a violent campaign waged across the country. there's no claim of responsibility so far. this attack is suspected to have

been carried out by boko haram - an armed group in the north, that says it wants islamic law. president goodluck jonathan's spokesman says the president assures all nigerians that the president is committed to winning the war and:. >> the most audacious attack was the kidnapping of 200 schoolgirls in northern borno over a month ago. it attracted the world's attention. the french president posted a meeting in paris. the ministers agreed to a coordinate strategy. a regional force is set up to control the areas. france and the u.k. and united states committed more resources. for the people shopping in the marketplace, those plans may not be enough. parliament agreed to extend a state of emergency in the north-east, more than 100 people lost their lives hundreds of

kilometres away. >> we are joined live from jos. it looks like devastation behind you. what is it that you are seeing there? >> reporter: indeed. the scene is one of utter devastation most people that carried out the bombings chose the area. if i show you how much devastation is caused there is on this side the car that was carrying the bomb blast was behind the red fire truck, and where it was, there is a huge crater in the ground. happening at the time this was packed with people, shoppers coming to get the goods at the market. there were passengers who were

coming from the bus terminal or going into the bus terminal or the people coming to jos university teaching hospital patients and relatives. when it happened, that was the first one, then the second bomb happened 100 metres away causing similar devastation. this had a higher death toll than the two bomb blasts that happened in the capital abuja. >> let's leave it there, the scope of the twin attacks and bring in the head of peace and security at the united nations university in brussels. devastating attacks, again - women, children - anyone is a target. there's no level too low for the perpetrators, is there? >> thank you very much. unfortunately there seems to be nobody that is outside the target physically. which is very, very worrying.

>> can we assume it is boko haram, and what do you make of the fact that they have attacked jos? >> well, i mean, so far we haven't had anyone claim responsibility for it. usually boko haram is pretty quick in coming out with similar responsibility. boko haram - the question is why have they moved to the center part of nigeria. it's a serious question to address. >> what do you think it suggests about them? excuse me for interrupting. their incredible confidence - they are under the spotlight of the world. they are being hunted down and are able to pull this off. >> yes, i mean let's look at it from this angle. if it is boko haram, why would they do this. for four or five years they

grave maximum international attention, which they have not got until a couple of weeks ago. they crave a response from the government, which yes did not get until they wept into chibok. now they have the attention. they want to maximise and sustain the attention to make sure whatever grievances they push across are well listened to. the fact that the nigerian government is a bit slow and the international community was slow in responding - it has emboldened them to do more and more. more and more. this may be a question of testing the will of the international community which is engaged with the nigerian government to resolve the crease sis, to see -- crisis to see how far they are willing to go. >> you see the government response, goodluck jonathan called it evil. what have they done to put a stop to this? it has been going

on for many years. >> yes, it has. the government has been taking steps. you may call them small steps. in my mind they are not steps that probably will be effective enough to address the insurgency. it is okay to say let us have original coordination, which is good in the sense that boko haram is regional, not just confined to nigeria. in nigeria, what is the government doing to tackle this, seriously? i talked a week ago about the problem of radicalization of nigeria youth. nobody is addressing that. you have university shot at random. some time after seven or eight months. nigerian polytechnics have been shot down. we don't know how long the youth will be home. they are not employed. institutions that includes. what do they do? the government has to do a lot more.

we assure the nigerians. it is good that the president came out quickly, unlike before, to describe this has evil. we have to move beyond. we have to have beats on the ground. the government has to be more engaging, effective and efficient in dealing with the insurgency. >> good to get your thought. thank you very much. >> former egyptian president hosni mubarak has been sentenced to three years in prison for embezzlement. his sons allah and gamal were convicted and will spend four years behind bars. the three were fined $2.9 million and ordered to reemburse over $17 million to the state treasury. they were convicted of stealing around $17 million allocated to renovate the presidential palace. eight people have been killed in fighting between rebels and government forces.

hutus launched an attack. they have been fight ght the central government and are trying to force the military to withdraw from the province. israel is accused of unlawfully killing two palestinian teenagers. the united nations and the united states are demanding an investigation into the shootings which were caught on video. a warning that some images in this report are disturbing. >> reporter: a day of widespread anti-israeli protests. it is a day, an annual occasion marking the formation of the state of israel, known to the palestinians as the catastrophe. a short distance away security footage emerged showing two palestine teenagers shot and killed in two incidents. witnesses say neither posed a threat to the israeli soldiers who fired on them. a senior u.n. official agrees. >> the u.s. calls for an independent investigation into

the two deaths, and urges israel to ensure that security forces adhere to the basic principles on the use of force and firearms by law enforcement officials. >> from the u.s. state department a careful statement asking for additional information. >> we are closely following this incident and the video. we are seeking additional information from the government of israel. we have been in touch. we look to the government of israel to conduct a pro. and transparent -- prompt and transparent investigation to determine the facts, including whether they are forces proportional to threats proposed by the demonstrators. this is the video that triggers the outrage. in two cases the two teenagers are shot within metres of each other. witnesses scramble to their aid. neither survive. responses from israeli and palestine officials were predictably polls apart. >> this was a situation where there was a threat to life.

the policemen operated accordingly, as to the edited films, i have seen many. i have not seen the clip, but am familiar with the method. >> the fact that the united states and united nations among others ask for the investigation is proof that there is foul play and there is an assassination bit the israely soldiers against the young men. >> with multiple ongoing investigations of a similar nature, there's little optimism of a resolution. this is a rare case where the alleged incident was caught on camera. more to come here op al jazeera - why some syrian refugees in lebanon say they'll go home to the battle ground in search of better health care. plus... >> i'm kath turner in new york. the united nations says there's an unprecedented global expansion of the synthetic drugs

the many. rosman makhmudov pulled the driver, but the two brothers and uncle had given assistance. the prosecution will recommend that all five men get life sentences. it is, of course, a verdict welcomed by the family and friends of anna politkovskaya. but what they say is that these men, the ones found guilty were just the hit men, and that the actual responsible parties for this, the people that ordered anna politkovskaya's death have never been caught. russia and china signed one of the biggest gas deals ever. vladimir putin is in shanghai for a strategic summit of ain states. russia has agreed to provide china with 30 years worth of gas. >> three cases of national mourning have been declared in serbia, more than 30 are thought

to have died in flooding across the ball dance. tens of thousands were forced to abandon their homes. we have this report. >> reporter: this woman says sandbags could have saved her house. no one came to help. in one night her home and life slid away. >> i put my life savings into this house. i don't know what to tell you. the pain is just overwhelming. >> the location makes it vulnerable. it's in a valley. the river runs through it. >> in many towns and villages, the floods took people by surprise. in just two days the tiny river rose three metres, sending a torrent of mud and water through the heart of this community. >> the landslide destroyed bridges, cutting off many villages. and it's taken people's

livelihoods too. the woman shows me the field where she farms. they are covered in a blanket of mud. she says nothing can grow here again for years. >> the young will leave this place. . this is the saddest thing. if the country would help, they'd stay. >> people here say they need the basics - things like food and drinking water. they also need building material and equipment. the european union is here to see the damage. and help. the embank. of the river has been destroyed. >> in the surrounding rivers they have to be rebuilt. we have problems with the water distribution, and waste management. >> right now this is the biggest threat. the hillsides are heavy with water. rain could send the unstable land down into the village. people in the balkans are mourning the dead. but the floods have destroyed a

way of life. people here say things will never be the same. let's stick with the weather. not rain in spain, but asia. >> that's right, asia has sign a lot of wet weather. if i show you the satellite, you see the huge blanket of cloud from japan to taiwan to the south-east of china. for many of us across the region it's been very, very wet. let's start with a look at what is going onto the north. you see the huge blanket of cloud. it gave us violent weather. in tokyo we saw wet conditions - mickie and minnie in destiniland looking soing -- disneyland looking a little soggy. the reason is 52mm of rain falling in tokyo. over the next few days in japan things will get better.

there'll be showers. friday, it will be drier and brighter. further south - there'll be more in the way of wet weather. here there has been a phenomenal amount of rain. around the quan dong province, where we see the wet weather. the showers continue to keep coming. 89mm of rain reported. if you think that's a lot. let's look at what has gone on in taiwan. there has been 348mm of rain, nearly 14 inches of wet weather. more to come over the next few days as well. >> thank you. it is the second biggest democratic exercise in the world. after india - from thursday to saturday people across europe will vote for a new european parliament. 400 million people are entitled to cast their vote. they'll be the first elections since the economic crisis since 2008. immigration is a major issue.

these factors give the pvb led, a prominent voce. lawrence lee went to the home down to discover how dutch voters are reacting. >> reporter: having your hair cut is not a bad way to find out what public attitude are like. after all barbers spend their life talking to africans. the mood is that lazy europeans have to do work, and stop getting the dutch and others pay their taxes. >> when i'm on holiday we work harder. it starts with lunch. when we have lunch in holland, we go to a shop, we buy a sandwich and carry on. if you go to the southern parts of europe, when i go for lunch i start at 11 o'clock and finish at 3 o'clock. >> reporter: he works this a little town where the dutch-german border is invisible. it's a gab between the houses.

down the road is the european union. many here would burp the european dreamt. it is the home down of leader of a growing party trying to bring down the e.u., which he insists led the people the wrong way, by opening the borders. >> a lot of people won't like if there's more controls at the border. if we explain that economically the benefits when it comes to sovereignty, our immigration. if they are - if they are more stronger and bigger than the negative sides of it, i can sell it to a lot of people. >> time has proven the establishment powerless to stop the rise of the passes. >> if we were unable to stop the dangers, it could easily, populist, have the majority in the parliament in 2019. businesses that rely on the boarder spare the lacklustre

response to the anti-europeans. >> we do more business with italy than all the brick countries together. that wouldn't happen if there wasn't an e.u., if there was no euro, and i cannot understand why the pol stirns, from which party, cannot come with a simple fact that everybody could understand the relevance and importance of europe. here is the big question - what happens over the course of the next few years if parties say they are unable to defeat the army like the french national front. what haens if by the end of the decade there's a mandate to put the borders back up. the anti-europeans persuaded many europeans that the dream of free movement is a social nightmare which warped europe's parliamentary. europe spent 70 years trying to

tear down the walls. by the time the children are adults, things might be different. >> joining me now is helping mayor, head of the european programme at the global policy unit. talk us through what this is all about, what the vote stands for. >> well, the vote, as you said in your package, is likely to show an increase in support, especially the right-wing pop u lifts, but it is not going to derail the policy making progress. the moderate parties retain the majority in the european parliament. given they have worked op a coalition in the past, the strengthening of the fringes will likely increase the cop rags. the policy making will not be derailed. of course, the challenge remains in the different nation states to confront head on the arguments that the pop u lifts are putting forward. that's a job for the next

few years. >> you say it won't be derailed. there's a report by the european council and foreign relations saying there could be 200 european skeptics. won't they fight to secure the abolition of this. >> there may be 25, 30% of euro skeptics. that means 70% are from the main extreme parties. given the history of corporation, a main plot in particular the social and democratic plot. i don't think the mechanics will be affected. again, as you said... >> tell us what the parliament does. what does it stand for? how does it make people's lives better? >> the parliament is a co-decision making parliament that takes decisions together with the council. since its inception it increased its power base and has a lot of impact on the lives of people.

this is not well understood amongst the citizens of europe. i concede that point. it doesn't mean that the european parliament isn't important. it has gain the porps, and might -- importance and might well be important in the future. >> do the result of these elections impact national elections? >> yes. i mean, that depends - that's - that's the interesting point to look at after the election, how it translates into international politics if you look at the u.k., there's a feeling amongst the conservatives that an increase support will split the right wing vote in the national election, that could mean conservatives losing the government and leading to a labour government. that is why there has been a reluctance among conservatives to tackle the arguments brought forward by the likes of some. there is a big impact on the national political ties course behind the numbers, the

quantitative result. this is effectively an erosion of the democratic bases of the european union. it has to be addressed. >> thank you for helping us to understand. there's a lot heading there. >> crisis talks convened by the army and thailand ended without on agreement. the meeting follows the declaration of marshall law with the army patrolling the streets. soldiers surrounded the area where red shirts loyal to former prime minister yingluck shinawatra. opposition protesters demand an entirely new administration. joining me is leon mccartedy a lecturer -- mccartedy a lecturer at nottingham university. if this is not a coup, what is? >> i think generally to call it a coup presumes the outcome. if this is a temporary - i guess

a temporary claiming of power to present an escalation of tensions between the two protesting factions, which is, i guess, to some degree what i home. then coup is presumptuous. so we'll have to wait and see. it will - a lot of it will depend on how the protesters respond to marshall law. >> a coup is a moveable feast if you see what is happening in thailand and how it's justified by the party, whether it works in its favour or not. >> absolutely. i mean, i think what the military has done is it's decided to intervene before events escalate to an extent where che land's reputation regionally and globally is too severely damaged. i think what it has done is it's seeing tensions brewing.

after the court intervened a couple of weeks ago, clearly tensions from the red shirts and the protest and claims that they are moving towards the still war meant that the military decided to make a move now, pre-emptively. whether or not this leads to a long-term seizure of power by the military which is by no means off the cards is to be seen. >> you raise a question of whether the reputation is damned. clearly it has. you have a government in power that has no power. >> well, that's true. but as is frequently the case, so long as the businesses and the key people in the country, key political figures, media figures, so on and so forth feel that business can be done on a day-to-day basis, the reputation may not be damaged beyond repair. if we were to escalate or move forward towards still conflict or war, then we would be in

trouble. as the loss of the courts are saying, the military move is quiet. there's not so much talk of a military - the military sprens not as intrusive as being in previous coups, or others happening at this moment in time. i think the military is sending a signal that it's business as usual, and preventing a further deg rattedation of the thai reputation. >> i wish we could talk more about the polarized society. but we have to leave it there. more to come on al jazeera. libya on fire. more fighting and death. the government says elections will go ahead. we are in tripoli. plus...
