♪ >> topping our news, a suspect in the american compound in pec benghazi is on u.s. soil. he wascat captured two weeks ago now. he arrived in washington, d.c. this morning. he was immediately arrested. the suspect faced a federal judge this after and entered a plea. the story. >> his name is akmed hatalla. he is the name suspect in an attack on the u.s. mission in benghazi on september 11th, 2012. >> attack killed u.s. ambassador chris stevens and three of hez staff. early on saturday, he was flown to washington by helicopter. he had been held on board and intear gated by investigators since his capture two weeks ago in libya by u.s. special forces. on saturday, he appeared here
6:02 pm
before a federal judge amid tight security. he pled "not guilty" insisting he is in the and did not direct the assault on the u.s. consulate. he charged it on three counts including murder and providing material support to terrorists. the attack is highly c controversial in the united states. just days before it occurred, an antiit's policeman video posted on youtube sparked protests that embassies in the muslim world. the obama administration initially blamed the benghazi attack on what it said were spontaneous protests against the video. it later e mentioned the attack was planned and coordinated. republicans allege the administration was covering up important details about the case
6:03 pm
to protect president obama's chances for re-election two months later. >> we have four dead americans. >> i understand. >> because of a protest or guys out for a walk one night who decided they would go kill some americans? >> they also claimed then secretary of state hillary clinton's own review was also suspect. she, too, is said to have aspirations for the white house. >> democrats have fired back, a request for further details in benghazi is nothing more than a right-wing conspiracy. republicans charged that the attack highlights failed white house policies. there have been countlets investigations including by a special congressional committee. still, the trial of akmed khattala is expected to be watched closely by politicians on both sides. al jazeera, washington. >> more on this case, let's bring in al jazeera's national security contributor jj green. you were in the courtroom for this first hearing, the first court appearance. obviously, this appear, but were the proceedings fairly routine?
6:04 pm
>> yeah. he was brought in he was set down in front of the judge. the judge asked him if he understood what was going on. he was being talked to by an arabic translator making sure he understood everything. he understood then he pled "not guilty." he seemed quiet. he was sitting very still. he seemed to be in command of his understanding in terms of what was going on in the room today. he didn't seem to be animated. >> he was arrested once he was officially on u.s. soil en though clearly the u.s. has had custody of him for quite some time and had access to talk to him. now that he's officially been arrested and he had a lawyer assigned to him, is it safe to assume he has been mirandized? >> i would assume so, richelle that he has been. there is no way to know definitively because his attorney would not make any statements today. i did approach his attorney and
6:05 pm
ask that and she said she didn't have any comments at this point. there might be a point at some point in the near future when she might say something, but i would assume, as you have, that he has been mirandized because of the complications or the implications that could come if he hasn't been as this case progresses? >> there are so many people with eyes on this. i am saying it should be tried in u.s. court. others saying it should not be that he shut have been sent to gitmo. as i said action he had an attorney. we don't necessarily -- this may not be the attorney he is with for the rest of his legal proceedings, though? right? >> yeah. this was an appointed attorney and there is the pos arabilisibd that's usually the case with anyone in this situation. you know, they are appointed an attorney. it's not necessarily iron-clad. >> person will be with them for the entire proceeding, but we do think that this individual is going to be with nem at least
6:06 pm
for the near term. >> what's next in the process? you know, normally, there is a hearing, then perhaps a formal arainment where bail is set. things like that. how normal is this so far? i mean obviously, he didn't have bail set. >> no. it's pretty normal for a situation like this involving an individual like him. i mean, this is a pretty rare thing, as you have already noted in the united states, having someone accused of terrorism from a foreign country from foreign soil in a major situation like the benghazi situation was. but it is a situation where we think that he's going to face a detention hearing on july 2nd and they will decide at that point what his detention will be, how it will be and what the circumstances will be. them he is going to face as well a status hearing and they are going to be some other proceedings along the way. so there will be a number of proceedings to take place before any of this goes to trial here
6:07 pm
in d.c. >> finally, jj before i let you go, any indications of how much more information the u.s. has gotten from him because obviously, before this arrest, he had actually been talking to the press. he had given interviews. any indication if he has continued to talk, or do we just not know right now? >> i can't say definitively for sure he was talking. one thing as a matter of an investigative tactic, the amount of time that he's actually been -- that it took to get him here, that he has been in custody may be an indicator as to how much information or how successful the discussion with him are going because we have used the term interrogation a lot. i am sure the investigators and people he was talking to recognized that they might have been able to get more out of him than having discussions with him as opposed to interrogations, especially considering the uproar over that kind of approach in the u.s. since gitmo
6:08 pm
was opened. i am pretty sure that based upon the amount of time they have had and they have had an ample opportunity to get significant information from him. whether they did or not, we don't know. >> the indication is that the u.s. basically took the long way, the long route so there was more time to have those discussions as you call them. >> yeah, the thing is, there is -- they wanted to make sure that they had all of their ts crossed and their is dotted making sure that there was a way forward because one of the worst things for investigators and intelzen sequence and security people in a case like this is bringing a case, bringing someone into court that the evidence doesn't translate into intelligence doesn't translate into evidence. they wanted to make sure they have this case locked down when bringing them into court so they took all of the time they needed to make a sure that everything was all set. >> very thoughtful insight, jj green, our national security
6:09 pm
contributor. we appreciate it very much. thank you. >> now, to iraq where the government says it has launched a major offensive to recapture rebel-held areas. troops, tanks and helicopters have been engaged in a day of fighting. i want sil. imran khan has the latest from baghdad. >> as iraq battles isil, the human cost is increasing. people flee from the battle for tikrit intentionfies. thousands are escaping in fear as they say the violence. figures for civilian casualties haven't officially been released. there are concerns the rebels and the iraqi army may have both killed notices caught up in the basis across northwestern iraq. these are part of the first major ground offensive by iraq's army since this crisis began. it's troops amassed here when
6:10 pm
isil rebels began to take place in west. the soldiers started their ground offensive fighting their way up this road to here, the outskirts of tikrit, in the hands of isil since june 11th and this latest offense has been dubbed zero hour by some government sources iraq's army says its in control. >> it's confirmed the isil leaders have started to flee. all of the intelligence information that we got today showed that the morale of the army is collapsing. >> they have brought in reinforcements and killed a number of soldiers and destroyed 10 to 20 iraqi humvees and that they have the army on the run. >> in mosul, the iraqi air force struck targets there for the
6:11 pm
first time. they likely used hell fire missil missiles. the americans would have given them advice on targeting. it's not just hell fire over the skies of iraqi. >> the u.s. has flown aircraft lethal and non-lethal. >> we continue to fly both manned and unmanned aircraft over iraq at the iraqi -- iraqi government's request predominantly for reconnaissance purposes. some of those area craft are armed. >> the reason some of those aircraft are armed is primarily for forced protection reasons. we have introduced into the country some military advisors whose objective will be to operate outside the confines of the embassy. >> despite that, isil not only controls iraq's second biggest city of mosul but mounted another display of power and shows no signs of backing down.
6:12 pm
imran khan, arizona. >> on tuesday, iraq's parliament will try to form a new government. >> he is the former news editor of "the new york times," baghdad editor. he says there is a deep distrust that the current prime minister nouri al-malaki. >> nouri al-malaki has become the face of the current crisis. he assumes? no matter what or guarantees he will give. the sunnis will different not get involved. i don't think so. i don't think malaki -- >> will he step down? >> he will try to fight to the last minute. you were talking in your report by iraqi army and he will try to sort of use or take advantage of any on the ground. any army can achieve. >> to say isis will be the guy.
6:13 pm
>> he has been playing all the time. terrorists your man proved the contrary. >> that was ali anibi, former editor of "the new york times" baghdad zero. >> a crowded market that happened in doma, a suburb of damascus. buildings on fire and rebels across the roadway. people were shopping to prepare for the month-long observance of ramahdan. in ukraine, pro-russian separatists have released a second team of international observers. the former released in donetsk. this comes as ukrainian president poroshenko announced a 3-day ceasefire extension. poroshenko intends to have a
6:14 pm
conversation with vladimir putin on saturday. for more, we turn to paul brennan in donetsk. >> the ukrainian government and the separatist militia have separately said that they will hold their fire until monday, the 30th of june but the reality on the ground is that there has been more sporadic fighting in last 12 years, some spokesperson for the ukrainian military in this part of the world. the sum total is four ukrainian soldiers and 14 soldiers wounded in three separate attacks which according to the spokesman provided rocket launchers, heavy weaponry and small arms fire. the difficulty is verifying this because we have spoken to the separatist side. therefore, what you can conclude is the importance of a verification mechanism. it was spoken about when the leaders of the eu met with president poroshenko in brussels.
6:15 pm
it was underlined when this contact group of kiev russia -- the osc met in donetsk on friday evening. the difficulty is setting it up in some kind of meaningful way. there needs to be a defined way to decide who has broken the cease fire in order for this to make sense. we don't have that mechanism. >> paul brennan reporting there. in a rare move, the vatican has ordered a polish archbishop be defrocked. a former vatican ambassador to the dominican republic will be stripped of the priesthood. criminal proceedings will be conducted by the vat cavin. if found guilty, he can be extra decided for prosecution. >> in mu meeting with his holiness, he talked about the subject and reassured me that the vatican would not be at peace until they got the maximum penalty. the maximum penalty you can apply for theons he committed. if they had have expelled him, that is the maximum penalty.
6:16 pm
