>> s >> announcer: this is al jazeera. hello, welcome to the new hour from doha. coming up in the next 60 minutes - fleeing the violence in mosul half a million forced from their homes as al qaeda seizes the second part of the village. raids in a compound by police, looking for the owner of a sunken ferry.

star power. brazil's president tries to unite the country despite anger about the football tournament. we begin the newshour with the crisis in iraq where half a million escaped mosul, leaving the city after an al qaeda splinter group captured it. i.s.i.l., islamic state of iraq and levant, forced the army to retreat. prime minister nouri al-maliki declared a state of emergency. his government is blamed for failing to stop the rebels. >> translation: when there's a call, i found out a large number of chiefs were afraid to discuss the issue with nouri al-maliki. they were afraid of telling him there was a security collapse

because a few days before there were reports contradictory to what was happening in mosul, showing share incompetence in confronting the attack. footage posted on a social media site shows iraqi forces crossing into the kurdish reason. three senior army commanders are among the convoy shape in the video. the armed group i.s.i.l. wants to create an islamic state linking syria and iraq, controlling the border and oil feels is a priority. i.s.i.l. fighters are in control of been 80% of the province, including the capital mosul. they advanced into kirkuk and took the main city by the same main. overnight they moved south into salaban and r. >> -- richarbardy but there's

reports that the army is back in control. there was an oil refinery and a battle around the refinery, pivotal to what iraq needs, oil to survive. >> before i answer that wech i'll bring you to -- question i'll bring you up to date. this is a fast-moving story. you saw the pictures of the iraqi army travelling into the kurdish stan region, three senior soldiers were in the compound. we have reports that the three senior soldiers are on a plane coming back to baghdad where they'll have to face charges that they abandoned their post. i.s.i.l. fighters walked into

baji and took the oil refinery and the main city. the oil refinery is about 15 miles away. the army fighters came into the city and took it over. there was no casualties or fatalities on either side. it seems the fighters disappeared once they realised the fourth armoured decision is bac back. we have seen them come into a place, take it over. they don't fight back as much as disappear. they live to fight another day. we have seen this across so many different parts. while this situation continues in the fighting, there's a humanitarian crisis unfolding at the same time.

500 thous people have been internally displaced according to the united nations. those have fled from mosul city. we have seen the pictures of people walking into the province. when they get there they have to go through a check point to get into kurdistan, the area. the reports from the people is that there is a backlog of refugees, they have to walk in. imagine 500,000 people walking in. this ads to the refugee problem that iraqi kurdistan va faces. all the aid agencies are scrambling. no one is expecting this to happen. they can set up camps quickly. i have seen it being done. it can take 3-4 days.

no one has given advance notice. they need to set up the camps. the lucky ones can stay in hotels with relatives or friends. >> that's a small one. we'll leave it there and come back to you as the situation develops. thank you. >> forces loyal to a libyan general have forced air strikes. the operation was led by khalifa haftar, where he says he has taken on some of the hard line groups because the government won't. moving to egypt. detained journalist abdullah al-shami's trial will resume in cairo on wednesday. his lawyer requested his release on medical ground. abdullah al-shami has been held

without charge since august and has been on hunger strike for more than four months and nists he will not break his fast until he's released. al jazeera continues to demand its release of other journalists in egypt. three are accused of supporting the muslim brotherhood, and have been held for 165 days. on thursday egyptian prosecutors demanded the maximum penalty. they want 7 years for peter greste, and 15 for fahd and baher mohamed. south korean police entered a church compound looking for the owner of a ferry that sank in april. he has not found. hundreds of his spobers turned out to protest the raid. it follows the start of a trial. more than 300 died in the disaster. we were sent this update in soul. >> this was not the first time

that police and prosecutors raided the facility. they went in on may the 21st. at that time 70 police officer went in, they were guided around by members of the church. this time a bigger operation. 6,000 police officers gathering at dawn, allowed in around 8am local time, and they were combing the entire facility. i think what they are after is if they don't find the man believed to be the real owner of the company that operated and owned the ferry that sank on april the 16th, if they don't find him, they are homing to find information that may lead to him. the presumption is that the operation to conceal him and evade capture is being run by here, no coincidence that this comes on the day after the president park geun-hye issued a

damning statement saying that she couldn't believe they haven't been able to catch him yet, asking police to re-examine the methods. the joint chief of staff of military say they have heightened operations and vigilance around the coastline in case they try to evade capture by stowing away on a boat, leaving south korea. >> let's get back to a top story, where overnight shelling of benghazi caused concern. we can join stefanie dekker, who joins me from tripoli. there was talk of a ceasefire. what is all that about? > it seems to have been talk. there was a council of wise men trying to get erp to the negotiating table and when it happened, there would be a ceasefire.

we heard that the general targeted said there'll be no ceasefire or negotiations unless he stops his attacks. one of the groups says they do not negotiate with tyre ants - this is the name they use to describe the former general. it's a picture that i don't thing is conducive to any ceasefire at the mind. it's worth bearing in mind that the brigade is under the government, the chief of staff. to keep you up to date with the political development, the general national congress appointed their president of all the militias under the government command. this has upset the other camp. the g.n.c. divided. there was a positive step when all sides agreed to the court ruling, when they said that the prime minister's election was unconstitutional. this is a move that upset the other camp. thee see a supporter in control of militia, he can give him an

order and he can carry it out. it seems like a push back to what happened on that day with the supreme court. with so much insecurity, it seems that the ordinary man on the street doesn't care too much about the poll sticks, it's causing disquiet -- politics, it causes disquite for those looking on. >> absolutely, i spoke to a resident of benghazi, who said the city is not the benghazi as he knows it. it's quiet, people are concerned much the airport has been closed for a few weeks, so people can't get out. when there's an air strike or battles, it affects civilian areas. it pushes some people to change the opinion of the operation. he has a lot of support. in tripoli the lack of security

is affecting people. there has been massive queues for fuel. no food have reached here. people died as a result of confrontations at fuel stations, people and militias are heavily armed. it can turn into a full-blown firefight. cash is an issue, there has been bank heists. taking money from the central bank is not happening. it's not an easy situation for the people. they want stability. it's proving challenging. >> you are it following event, we'll come back to you. >> they are campaigning in the presidential election in full swing, less than a month before the vote. up to 75 million young people will take part for the first time, and they could play an important role in the result. rob mcbride has more from jakarta. >> reporter: out in jakarta's

narrowing. >> as inton easterns discuss the performances, what everywhere agrees on is the clear-cut nature of the choses, representing distinct sides, making choosing between them easy. voters vote young and olds. politics here and elsewhere could be simple. >> all aged around 20. this group of friends are pairly older than the country's transition to democracy. they are divided over the candidate and one doubts whether he'll vote at all. >> translation: things will never change. corruption is like a culture in this country. >> reporter: trying to remind voters about democracy their elder brothers and sisters won, this group of the activists are using digital technology to get the message across.

the young and the old making a differentlies in the u.s. the second-most powerful man in the house of representatives lost his seat to a tea party. eric cantor was beaten by david brat, college professor. it has given the conservative movement a victory. >> i know there's a lot of long faces here tonight and it's disappointing, sure. but i believe in this country i believe there's opportunity around the next corner to all of us. i look forward to continue to fight with all of you for the things that we believe in for the conservative cause. those solutions of ours are solutions to the problems. thank you very, very much. both sides agreed to form a

>> reporter: it was 1950 the last time brazil hosted the world cup. it was a different country. life was simple, troops slower. some things like football are timeless, especially in this football craze the country. >> 64 years and 16 world cup's later the football world's greatest spectacle returns to the land of the game. in recent days the football match started to take over. part of the reason f.i.f.a. chose to host the counter in south america. getting ready for this tournament has not been easy for the host who was beset by delays in stadiums and cost overruns. but it's violent protests hit brazil that could pose a worry and cause concern. although the protests diminished in size since exploding last

june, they've been replaced by a wave of worker strikes in the last week. >> brazilian officials are confident that they are about to host the world cup of all world cups and hope that once the first ball is hit, the country will explode not in protests, but excitement. brazilian authorities are taking no chance, putting security personal on the streets. they are there to make sure the tournament is not upstaged by anything on the pitch. police in a new command center will watch hundreds. the air force will have drones in the sky, monitoring activity and protests that could break out. last week the final test match was held at the delayed world cup stadium in sao paulo. the local team scored their first goal in the new arena. this is a country hoping that all the action will be an the pitch during the coming weeks.
