[ explosions. >> helicopter attacks in ben gas did i as forces loyal to a former libyan official step up their militias. hello there, you're watching the al jazeera news hour live from london. also coming up from the program russia calls for an u.n.

resolution ukraine. and spain's king juan carlos said he'll step down from the country's throne. and five leaders arrive in guantanamo and there are questions in the u.s. over the deal that freed them. >> helicopter gun ships have been firing on the libyan city of bengahzi. ishortly we're going speak to our correspondent in tripoli, but first let's watch her report. >> it started in the early hours of the morning. residents in bengahzi awoke to this.

>> fighters from the armed group and others attacked special forces who have sworn allegiance to general haftra. it soon turned into a full scale war. there have been casualties, and civilians are among the dead. the fight something spilling over into residential areas. haftar has attacks areas and they are now fighting back.

>> stephanie, tell us little bit about this general, kahlifa haftar, who is now taking on the militias. >> well, he is a man known to libyans. a corne colonel under qaddafi. he moved to the u.s. for 20 years and came back during the revolution in 2011. there are people who are rallying behind him, rallying behind his cause to rid the country of what he calls terrorists and extremists. that is a message that many do subscribe here. people are sick and tired in libya of the dire security situation. some people will tell that you he's doing the right thing. and others would say that he should not take it upon himself,

he is not official government, so he is polarizing people. but people who support the idea of what he's carrying out is because they're so fed up in a nothing has changed, it's only gotten worse when it comes to these heavily armed militias. >> annot only is the prime minister changing every few months now we have a bizarre situation where there are two prime ministers. >> that's right. it's rather surreal. there are two prime ministers, two governments. both say they're legitimately elected. they're going to the supreme court. and people will tell you that enough of this politics, power play, libya is a complicated country, there are different allegiances when it comes to region areas and tribal areas and religion, very

conservative. nothing is clearcut here. but people will tell you they want someone to rule this country properly with the interest of everyone in mind. someone who brings everyone together. but it's challenging when you have so many militias and there is no one to answer to at the end of the day. >> stephanie decker, thank you. russia is to submit a draft resolution calling for an immediate end to violence in ukraine. the foreign minister said that sergei lavrov agrees. >> the resolution will include demand to an immediate violence and establish a stable and reliable sees fir cease-fire. >> well, sergey lavrov's

comments come as violence continues. in luhansk there has been fire fight between separatest and border guards. we go to moscow, but first let's go to eastern ukraine. so the violence continues in eastern ukraine in spite of the election, the referendum, paint us a picture of what's going on there. >> well, the battle has now resumed as the border guard leave the city of luhansk. there has been a short cease-fire as injured are taken to hospital. this attack started early this morning. and border guard headquarters in the past hour we've heard that the ukrain ukrainian jet.

this is a very dangerous escalation of this conflict. [ gunfire ] >> reporter: the ukrainian border a guard under attack by separatist fighters of a force of 70 surrounded by 500 strong. ukrainian air jet fighters fly over where the attack was emitted. flying out flares. heavy plumes of billowing smoke is rising above the sky lines. the region neither russian border northeast of the city of doneskt has seen a sharp up rise

coming in from ammunition and more weapons. the guards have been involved in the fire fight from members from russia. as wthey swarm to defend the people's republic against kiev's forces. ukraine's president-elect labeling them as terrorists and enemies of the state. >> reporter: attacks like this as each day passes more and more volunteers are arriving. many are battle-hardened veterans with the weapons and

the skills to outmatch the ukrainian army. the battle for control in the east looks set to be a bloody one. al jazeera, doneskt. >> we can speak to david live, he is in luhansk. tell us about the latest. >> reporter: as you can hear behind me there is a fierce fire fight going on, heavy explosions and mortar rounds. that's the actually base on fire. [ explosions ] >> bullets hav are coming over our heads, so we've had to take har hard. an increase in the fighting there. we've had an half hour of

cease-fire, but we have bullets coming at us at the moment. the cease-fire was called to be able to remove the dead from the base. but the fight has resumed. there are 70 border guards fighting off the attack, and the separatist fighters are in a high position on that block of flats just above the base, which you can see burning at the moment. >> david chater reporting from luhansk. we better leave it there. we can see that it is getting dangerous in luhansk. we'll bring you the latest from luhansk we know we get month developments. let's go to moscow. tell us what is it likely to be in the draft resolution?

>> reporter: yes, well with areas spiraling more and more out of control, russia is attempting to take a diplomatic initiative and try to dampen things down it seems on the surface. it's going to be submitting a draft resolution to the u.n. security council and it will say in that draft resolution there will be three main strands. first, an urging of violence to cease from all sides. secondly, is that space be given for negotiations to take place for a long, durable, cease-fire, one that will hold. and also what sergey lavrov has called for, is for the establishment of humanitarian corridors where civilians caught up in the fighting can escape, and humanitarian aid can be

brought in. he essentially was reiterating something that the russian government has been saying for quite some time. which is that the geneva statement, which is an agreement reached by russia, ukraine, the u.s. and e.u. back in april just has not been implemented. russia blames the non-implementation off geneva statement on the west saying it has not honored it's side of the bargain, and of course the west accuses russia of the same things. but a lot of things contained in the geneva statement is also in this draft resolution. general statement saying that violence of violence and extre extremism should cease and armed groups should be disbanded and disarmed, and they should be

allowed i should--monitors should be allowed into ukraine to establish what is going on. >> there has not been a change in attitude since the election in ukraine a few days ago? >> reporter: no, there doesn't seem to be. essentially what russia is doing is putting out the same statements again and again and again. this u.n. security council draft resolution is a new step, though. it seems that russia believes that the west is not listening to it, and it seems that russia believes that the new government petro poroshenko seems to be getting the upper hand on the ground and they're able to control things a little more from kiev. that is a worry from moscow. moscow does not want the separatists in the u.k. to be

militarily defeated. russia wants them as strong as possible where a negotiation can take place where ukraine is federalized and the east of the country can be kept more as a pro russian part of the federalized ukraine. weakening kiev's control and also enabling russia to keep its area of influence there and stop ukraine as a country drifting further westward towards the e.u. and further into n.a.t.o.'s group as well. >> live for us in moscow. thank you. well, meanwhile russia's state-owned gas company has relaxed the payment from ukraine. it had threatened to stop supply to ukraine stating tha stating that ukraine owes it $2.2 billion. and it relaxed after kiev paid a

portion of the bill. this could threaten europe's gas supply. more from london, including the end of division. palestine's president signs in a new government including hamas and fatah. more on the qatar 2022 world cup. >> the king of spain is abdica abdicating the throne. the king has been suffering poor health and now will make way for his son. >> king juan carlos helped smooth its transition into democracicy. and for that the spanish people held him in high regard. the elderly spanish sovereign have become visibly frail and

out of step with modern attitudes. nevertheless, the abdication announcement still came as a huge surprise. >> his majesty the king has abdicated. >> photographs provided by the spanish government shows the moment the abdication order was signed. it was followed by an outgoing statement from the outgoing king himself. >> my only ambition was and will always be to contribute to the welfare, progress and liberty to all spanish people. i want the best of spain to whom i have dedicated my entire life and whose service i have given all my ability, my hopes and my efforts. >> king carlos came to power in 1975 just two days after franco's death. his approach was fresh and easy going. in 1981 when soldiers stormed

parliament and attempt admit coup, juan carlos had shown a decisive side. one that earned praise. but in recent years his popularity has dipped significantly. the king embarked on a safari trip to which he would be shooting elephants. he broke his hip and was flown home. it was a public relations disaster. his daughter is going through a corruption case. crown prince philippe is a tall former olympic yachtsman. >> i think the prince will be a good king because he has been prepared well. >> reporter: last year a poll

showed 62% of spaniard wanted the king to abby to philippe. and 66% felt he could improve the world's imagine if he took over. soon he will get his chance. >> well, joining us live from madrid, a political analyst. thank you for joining us here in al jazeera. so why do you think that the king has chosen now to abdicate? >> well, it's certainly not because of his ill health because he's been ill for a long, long time and actually now he seemed to be better. it's obviously for political reasons. popularity of the monarchy which has been revealed in the polls recently. also some serious constitutional challenges.

finally the mood of the spanish population, which has become very much anti-establishment because of the economy crisis and all these things have benefited the popularity of the monarchy to the point that the only way the king has seen to regenerate the institution is abdicating. >> king juan carlos has been on the throne for 40 years. he took the throne just after the franco regime. symbolically he's very important to spain. do you think spaniards will miss their king? >> well, he remains popular in a general sense. probably not as a king, but he still a likable man, and he is still loved by the people as a person. it's the institutional role that has been disappointing to many people, and that has risen.

people will have a very good memory of him. but the general idea is that he had his time. that he was a man of what he has been known in spain the political transition between the dictatorship and monarchy, and that he was out of touch with the modern world the 21 o 21st century. he will be remembered as important, his legacy moving from the dictatorship to the democracy, but at the same time his image has suffered in the last five or six years of his reign. >> what do you think the challenges will be for crown prince philippe. >> well, it's both an opportunity and risk. well, he's young. he's in his mid 40's. he's in general a very discrete man. that is very much to his

advantage because that's what people want from a king now. the major challenge is the catalonia issue. that's the--this is looming. it will happen in a matter of months, and it would go either way. it could be a huge constitutional crisis. that's important. also retief this image of the monarchy of the people. it will be ease for i am because he's untainted by scandals. he has not been under the spotlight. he is not that well-known but he has enormous potential to become more popular, and he has a good chance of becoming very popular, indeed. >> it will be interesting to see how the monarchy changes over the next few moments, thank you. >> and now it's time to get the international weather. here's richard. >> meteorologist: thanks very much. i thought we would take a look at weather across central parts of america and take a look at the satellite. it's all looking quite

threatening especially towards parts of mexico. in fact, this low pressure center is infect a tropical depression which has the potential of forming into a cyclone. we're going to see an awful lot of rain across this region. you've got a circulation going and it draws air in. that's why we've seen such large arguments of rain that have been reported. elsewhere we've got very heavy rain which have been effects parts of panama tw, too. it is looking very wet, indeed. for the southern parts of mexico we could see excess of rain and in parts of guatemala, too. rain across cuba and across the florida panhandle, it's going to

be wet weather. but for the lesser an til antilles and puerto rico, it should be drier with highs of 30s. >> more coming up on the news hour. syrians prepare to vote for a president. but will they choose bashar al-assad once more? and thousands celebrate the formal creation of india's newest state.

>> hello there, here is a reblinder of th reminder of the headlines. gun battles continue in luhansk. russia is calling for an u.n. resolution to end the violence. al jazeera's david chater is in luhansk amid the gun battle. >> as you can hear behind me the mortar rounds. that's the actual base on fire. >> reporter: bullets are over our heads so we've had to take cover, but the cameras are still

going, so you can see what is happening. we had a half hour of cease-fire. we thought that we were safe but bullets are flying at the moment. >> david chater reporting from luhansk. a new unity government that rifles hamas and fatah sanctions. the two have rifled since 2007. the new government i will hold elections in six months. stepping down from his position to help the unity government work. >> i'm standing down from my role, but i'm not abandoning my responsibility. we'll remain serving our people

where we are. we'll continue to serve the great people of palestine. >> okay, let's speak to nusrene. what assurances are there, does it seem that they'll be able to cooperate this time? 7. >> well, as you know the last time there was an unity government was seven years ago in 2007. after hamas taken over of the gaza strip palestinian president abbas, it has taken this long for them to come together. the easy part is over, forming

this government, who are made up of technocrats who belong to neither groups but they now have a huge task of preparing for general elections in 2015 in both the west bank and in the gaza strip, and also to begin to rebuild the gaza strip. now this deal is very important especially for people in gaza. it is important for all palestinians, but the people of gaza have been living in a double blockade. first by the israeli government, and also more recently by the egyptian. so this deal is very important for them. it will open up the isolated strip to the world, and it will help the government there pay its employees, 40,000 of them, that it's not able to pay salaries to. this deal is very important for people. specifically for the people of

gaza who are struggling under very, very difficult conditions. >> nisreene. you mentioned the last unity government between hamas and fatah, one of the reasons it was not successful was it was not recognized by israel. is israel going to recognize this government, and if not, does it not put them in the same situation they were in all those years ago? >> reporter: all of these are possible scenarios that you just mentioned. machood abbas insists that they are going to recognize israel. we have not--it's going to be very difficult for them to get their house in order.

israel said that the world shouldn't recognize this new unity government. it remains to be seen how they're going to work out these issues. it is challenging but they realize they need to put their differences behind them. one more thing israel has said it will implement economic sanctions but it did not describe the set of sanction it is plans to impose on the palestinian authorities and it has said i it will boycott and the intensity of the sanctions that it will impose. in a works in israel's favor for israel's security. i don't think the israelis want to sow that fall apart. they want to keep that security coordination, and they're going

to study perhaps any steps they take in the future carefully. >> nisreen el -shamayleh, thank you. >> meeting in vienna to discuss watchdog concerns. at the first day of the week long meeting the agency's director praised iran for becoming more open about its nuclear open. >> this has helped us to gain a better understanding.

>> the leader of the tap ban in afghanistan has issued a rare public statement brandishing the release of guantanamo bay detainees as a big victory. sgt. bo bergdahl was freed after five years of captivity. >> reporter: they stopped halfway to be greeted by a taliban base in the capitol. this ithere is no video of the two other leaders they were all detained for 12 years in guantanamo. their release was part of a prisoner swap. in exchange for their release the taliban freed u.s. soldier

bo bergdahl spent spy years in captivity. it was criticized by the congress would who said it would embolden the taliban to hire more soldiers. >> it is shocking to me. it says in the law that you have to notify people and putting five people back on the battlefield. even though our troops are out in 2015 you'll have five people on the ground targeting the afghan people. >> this engagement indirectly with the taliban was with the specific purpose of releasing bowe bergdahl. but which have hoped that there

was afghan reconciliation including the taliban. if this exchange opens that door a little bit, then we would welcome it, and we would certainly hope that in any event that the reconciliation, which we have all long said is essential, can proceed. >> reporter: the swap was hailed by taliban leader as a big victory. the afghan government, which was only formed after the exchange had taken place, was highly critical, describing the deal as a breach of international law. this is the most significant deal the u.s. has made with the taliban since the opened office in qatar a year ago. it is widely seen as a move to engage taliban in talks with the u.s. over the future of afghanistan, but the remain go

main goal remains to breck advertise with al-qaeda. >> michael garcia is the middle east in part of his own investigation into the hosting process. it comes a day after the british newspapers the sunday times claims that it has evidence that the former fifa vice president made $5 million in payments to other football officials. the newspaper claims those payments were in attempt to help his home nation qatar to secure the 2022 event. well qatar organizers released a statement saying that he played no official or unofficial role in qatar's 2022 bid commitment. they have convinced of the

merits of the bid. we vehemently deny all allegations of wrongdoing. we'll take whatever sets are necessary to defend the integrity and lawyers are looking into it matter. well, despite the allegations there has been no evidence of any corruption from those officially involved in qatar's bid. >> now that there have been no allegations or any claims at all that anyone from the qatar bid committed any sort of bribery qatar certainly spent a lot of money in worldwide promotion of their bid, but obviously that is something different, and also obviously they worked extremely hard hyped the scenes to lobby for political support. it was also claimed that by a number of people that several foreign governments suggested to their own members they might

have particular interests in where the vote went, but certainly in terms of civic corruption, no, there has been no smoking guns at all. >> at least 50 people have been killed in shelling in the syrian city of aleppo over the past three days. footage showing a rebels attacking the northern part of the stay. 70 people were reportedly killed in the attack. elsewhere in syria regime gunships have reportedly dropped barrel bombs. a number of civilians have been injured. the president of syria bashar al-assad is widely expected to win a third term in office in tuesday's election. more than 1 of 0,000 people have died since the up priding against assad began in march 2011. and two u.n. special envoys have stepped down. as apart of our series "remains of a state" we look at th how

prepared the community is to deal with assad for the next seven years. >> they are two of the most respected diplomats in the world. kofi annan and diplomat ibrahimi. no one has been able to keep accurate count but it is without doubt the most deadly conflict in this century. they were placed on a special agreement with the geneva accord in 2012. it called for a new transitional government in syria with full executive powers. ibrahima got syria to come, to

work out the government. many believed the presidential election destroys the geneva process completely. there is no chance of transitional government if assad is re-elected. for the duration of the war there have only been wear moments of unity in syria at the u.n. security council. china is likely to continue to use its veto. but how will the rest of the international community respond to an election that technically gives bashar al-assad another seven years in power. one believes that the election will certainly not change the minds of those people who declared the regime an international pariah. >> i don't think there is a powerful imperative for any outside state whether commercially because they want to do business with syria, a country that there is no business to be done with, or

geopolitically because they want to, what, get on russia or iran's good side? there is no powerful reason for anyone to pretend that that election is real. that election will change things within assad's deluded mind and entourage. >> reporter: the u.n. and international aid agencies are finding it impossible to get medicine and aid to the we seened areas. there is talk of a new resolution in the u.n. security council on the humanitarian access, but getting the agreement of russia and china will be difficult. four times in the past three years the two nations have used their veto to block resolutions on syria. on the ground in syria the death toll continues to mount but it is doing nothing to break the deadlock at this table. >> to discuss the issue further we're joined in the studio with

the professor of international relations at the london school of economics. thank you for being with us. there are some pretty strong comments in that report, this is not a real election. do you think it's going to change anything? >> i think this is not a re-election in the formal sense. the election is is for the continuation of war. the ballot box is on the battlefield. as important as the battles raging in damascus, aleppo and homs. this is bashar al-assad's ability to survive, and as he and others have said he has earned a third term. not only has he survived a great conspiracy, but he has gone on to survive with the war going in his favor. >> we've seen the deadlock of the international community. are you hearing conversations in the western capitol that perhaps

some people are thinking, well, we should start to deal with assad again? >> i think you're asking really a very important question. i think assad has survived, and assad will be with us for a while, unfortunately. and the reality is that the opposition is divided. it's not enough to criticize the election. but does he have the operatio the u.n. have a strategy. many american, part of the elite are saying, look, we should talk to assad. he's not going anywhere. plus we should deal with assad to deal with the jihadist threat. whether it's the el nusra front or others, they are now as important of a threat in the eyes of the western leaders as assad himself. >> how key is the situation in

russia and ukraine. we could see that russia and china are not budging in the security council, does it make it difficult to know that russia was never going to be on board. >> absolutely. it has aggravated the u.s.-russia. russia has used four vetoes in the council in order to support assad. russia is sending observers to syria to observe the election. that's why the question about syria is will the united states and russia, will the regional powers find a way out. it's no longer an internal fight. it's regional and global. >> if you're one of the countries sending in humanitarian aid, is there anything else that the international community can do? >> the international community must start talking to one another. the americans, the russias, the saudis, the iranians.

the only way for the syrian bloodbath to end is for a regional and international consensus. >> from the london school of economics. thank you very much for sharing your views with us. al jazeera continues to demand the release of its journalists detained in egypt. mohamed fahmy, bader mohammed, and peter greste were back in court on monday. a fourth journalist abdullah elshamy has been held without charge for nine months. he has also requested a medical report t examination to report his bad health. we now go back to luhansk. al jazeera david chater is in luhansk. he was watching the gun battle. >> as you can hear behind me the

fierce fire fight going on. heavy explosions, if you can make out that's the actual base on fire. bullets are coming over our heads so we've had to take cover. the camera is still rolling so you can see exactly what is happening. so an increase in the fighting there. we've had a half hour of cease-fire. we thought it was safe. but the bullets are flying at the moment. >> reporting in luhansk. let's get more. kim, we could see in that report from david chater how much the violence is escalating in luhansk. what is happening right now in ukraine? >> reporter: well, i can just tell new the past few moments we've just had confirmation

there has been an explosion in the administration building in luhansk. the fighting has spread to the outskirts of the city. that's where the battle began in the early hours of the morning. we understand that there are now as feign as 500 pro russian separatists taking part in this attack. and we know there has been firing on mortar positions and they have taken position inside apartment blocks surrounding that base and it's making it difficult for them to fire back. obviously that came to minimize the risk of injuring or killing any civilian there is. this is definitely an escalation in this crisis over the past week. we're seeing different events play out. there was a siege at the airport last monday and then on thursday we had an ukrainian helicopter shot down outside of the city of

slovyansk. here in doneskt people are feeling increasingly nervous. it was the center of the pro russian efforts, where they had taken over government buildings. they fear there could be an imminent attack here as well. >> thank you. and still to come in this news hour. can street food survive? how urban developers could be pushing out one of hong kong's most famous features.

>> a frenchman arrested over the fatal shooting of three people in a belgium jewish museum is said to have spent a year fighting in syria. the 29-year-old is being held at french anti-terrorism headquarters paris. he confessed to carrying out last weekend's attack. >> reporter: this was the moment a lone gunman fired into a jewish museum in brussels last weekend. now the police say they're holding the man who carried out the attack. from northern france was arres arrested in marseille. he allegedly had a rifle and another weapon on him as well as a camera with a video record ohing where he admits the shooting. french authorities say the 29-year-old served five years in

prison for robbery before traveling to syria. >> he went to syria, and stayed over a year in syria where it seems he joined the ranks of militant groups, jihadists and others. >> bell scrum's federal prosecutor say that it highlights the growing threats. >> going to syria in order to participate in combat and return afterwards to our country. all the european country are c confronted at this moment with with this problem. >> it's like asperge.

iceberg and what you see and what is underneath. what is underneath is more important than what you see. >> reporter: meanwhile, at this makeshift shrine at the museum they're still struggle to go make sense of the attack. >> sworn in as the new president of el salvador. he is the first former guerrilla to lead the nation. he said to tackle corruption and gang violence and said he wants to create a country where life is free from dangers. we have more now from san salvador. >> reporter: he takes over the presidency of this tiny central american nation, one of his biggest challenges is gang violence, which has made el salvador one of the most dangerous countries in the world. >> security requires that we work together against organized

crime, drug trafficking, extortion and all forms of violence. welcome bat crime with all the tools we have. >> reporter: they have launched a crackdown, the government never explained why. now 14 people are killed every day in san salvador. >> there are some in favor and others against the gang. now the president of el salvador will have to decide if he will support it or use a strong policy to tackle crime. >> reporter: but victor who makes $6 a day at the market said that the president should focus on the economy, and that

will bring peace to el salvador. >> i think a large part of the youth in the gang if there are more jobs to develop their futures. >> but many do not believe in political projects. >> one vote with the hopes that things will change, and i never see change. as the situation is right now the option is to stay at home. >> reporter: they will need the trust of salvadorans in his strategy whether he fights with a tight fist or to give in to demands like jail benefits to get peace in return. >> thousands of people have been celebrating the former creation of the newest state telangana. it will have a population of

35 million people across ten districts. >> it has been a very long collective effort. after so many sacrifices, we finally have telangana. >> now the back streets of the big cities in asia are renown for their cheap food outfits, but developments are pushing up their rent and putting them out of business. many are serving up their last dish. >> he has been making and serving up dim sum for 35 years. this mate be his last. two years ago his lease went up by 50%. he fierce another similar rent rise even worse. >> many of the buildings have already been redeveloped and a lot of older people who have

lived here and who were my customers have moved away. >> reporter: nestling in the shadow of the gleaming office box, older box shops are being squeezed by rising glints there used to be a lot of eateries here and now there is only one. >> reporter: so far the street food store numbered in their hundreds when he set up this one with his father back in the 1960's. now it's barely one of 20 left and no interest from his children in running it will probably close when he finely hangs up his laidel. >> as all of the hong kong has been transformed, it has faced the same problem of many others cities, how to develop while

maintaining it's character. but there are some who wouldn't mind losing the rough side of their character for good. >> reporter: some critics believe the authorities have used recent food safety scares and virus outbreaks to target cheaper food outlets. the results, a vanishing heritage. >> they want a clean city. that's why they have all gone away. >> reporting from hong kong. it's a reminder of the raging gun battle in the ukrainian city of luhansk. it comes as pro russian fighters take on ukrainian border guards. david chater was in luhansk.

>> if make out the actual base on fire. >> bullets are coming over our head so we have had to take cover. you can see exactly what is happening. at increase in the fighting there. we have had an half hour of cease-fire. >> david chater in luhansk showing how tense the situation is, and in the meantime in the past few minutes we've had news from the news agency saying the russian envoy to n.a.t.o. has said that the unprecedented n.a.t.o. activity near the border to increasing tension could undermine the security that exists and n.a.t.o. is
