including the main building of the government the army, an ends less list of places which amounts to what we can call the entire government of yemen now under the control of the houthis. trying to kong firm about sign angagreement it's the same agreement they have agreed upon in principal yesterday and they were waiting for the delegation to come from the north representing the hourthies basically the government to resign will be replaced a bigger loan and the houthis according to that deal with draw from the

strategic places around it. but that's as much as we know so far because they are the main points in the initial agreement which we had have not been changed. we are going to get more details in the hours to come. >> absolutely. the our big thing that happened is the prime minister resigning. why did he go? >> in his resignation, he crit sides the the president, the way he dealt with the crisis and the way he also adhered to or complied to the power sharing deal between the two fighters, the government between the president and the prime minister. remember this government is a mixture of peters and a mixture of movements in yemen and it was a power sharing deal after the

former president. so he is angry with a number of things swluing what's happening yesterday and we know that, you know, what happened in sanaa yesterday has to do with a major shift all of the power revolution, parties inside in the government will see themselves marginalized in the days to come, in a few phase according to the report we have. sens because of the university is affiliated to the party, the party with the uprising. a majority and what we have now. what we have now is a major surge of the shia minority

coming from the north and it is yet to know out of that >> from where we are sitting, mo it's hard to understand why the houthis are moving to take so much of the capitol people negotiating, working in conjunction, people who are occupying the building? yes. the information i have is that the houthis are a very well known strategy. you fight harder so you can neck on or about ate better so the houthis are trying to gain, trying to gain more ground in order to make the deal with the government a better deal for them but what we have now is not more grounds for the houthis. it is actually the whole entire government structure is in their

hands and it is now not clear how much these developments of just one day will impact the deal that was of was main points were on paper yesterday. for us to, you know, discover in the next few days. >> okay. mohammed, thanks very much for the update. we will keep across those developments as they keep happening there let's speak to someone whose home wasshelled. you were forced to leave your home before it wasshelled. tell us what happened. >> thank you very much our neighborhood wasshelled many

times the neighbors tried to escape from the neighborhood. we had to use the -- we had to a leave our house and everybody in the building had to leave. and i went back to get some supplies from my home and to make sure everything was okay, and before i -- before i was able to reach the village, shell from both sides. the houthisshelled the building first and then they opened the door and went into the roofs and then there was another shelling come from the military to the rooftop and damaging the house and and huge parts were destroyed. >> it sounds incredibly

dangerous, this shelling in a highly residential area. was anybody hurt? >> many people went to the hospital yesterday. there were many injured. there was a lot of bodies in the morgue, and some ambulance drivers told me they couldn't reach some areas because the shelling was so heavy and they were not giving them any space to come into those areas. >> what's happening now? are you still hearing shelling in the capitol? ? >> at this moment, there is no clashes. there is no shelling. but we are still afraid to go back because the area is still dangerous and we think there might be some snippers on the rooftops so it's something. there is no clashes now.

the issue is has calmed down but we are basically suffering. >> how are you getting information? i mean the houthis, we understand, have taken over the state television and, also, the radio stations. so how are you hear can what's happening? >> we try to listen to some news stations like your news station. we try to get information through the internet we don't have enough information to makes everyone. the president hasn't come out to talk to the people in a week. not even telling them that there is a piece agreement coming so everybody is waiting for

something to happen. >> it's extraordinary. it seems to be a vacuum of power now. you've got the prime minister resigning, houthis in control of the government buildings. hour people react to go this? is there much support for the houthis? >> i know many people there. a lot of people are afraid. we hope the situation calms down and people will be able to go back to work normally. unfortunately, the government hasn't been talking to the people and no one knows what's happening across the closed doors. >> we appreciate you taking time to talk to us. we hope for you and for your fellow neighbor's sake the situation does calm down as well. thanks very much. let's go back now to our correspondent, mohammed vall,

still on the line from sanaa because we've got some developments we are hearing that the houthis and the government have indeed signed this agreeme agreement. tell us more about what you foe. >> by the time we talked a few minutes ago, we were trying to get more clarifications and more confirmations of that now, it is confirmed that they have signed the agreement and it is basically the same agreement that was on the table yesterday. the basically a few major points including the new government to be formed with more contribution by the houthis, more involvement for the houthis and it's growing from the places which we occupied inside and outside sanaa. yesterday, the houthis were not inside sanaa at that time. this is a point we need to know whether it has been included

tonight in their final agreement. >> agreement has now been signed and an extra condition which the houthis are in control of the government or the government institution, which is also a different situation from yesterday when the major points were put on paper and before being fined. so you see here the government had -- the howethies had the upper hand in this situation on the ground and it remains to be seen what shape the government will take, what road for the president, the actions. >> absolutely. who takes the next move. okay. mohammed for the moment, we will leave it there and with that deal having been signed in the capitol, sanaa and rebels still in control of most of the city. now, after months of arguing over who won the afghan presidential election and accusations of voter fraud, rival candidates have signed a power-sharing deal.

administration. >> today is a mix of good news and bad news. the good news is that there is an end to the long time political crisis. the bad news is a huge setback to democracy in afghanistan. >> for some after gangs action the unity government isn't the answer they were looking for. >> we are disappointed it was not our vote that decided this. they could have made a deal six months ago. >> the political stalemate has hurt the economy and inflamed a delicate security situation. one of the new president's first tasks will be signing a security agreement to allow u.s. and nato forces to remain in afghanistan until next year to train and support afghan troops. >> the new government will face a number of challenges much afghanistan is still heavily dependent upon international aid corruption is widespread and extended political process has left many suspicious of politicians. they want a government which will unite them and help put the economy on its feet.

jennifer glasse, al jazeera, cable. >> the united nations have 70,000 syrian kurds have crossed the border into turkey in 24 hours. then forced to run for their lives from fighters from the islamic state of iraq and the lavant who have been seizing kurdish i villages in northern syria. here is more. >> reporter: walking for miles with only the few possessions they could carry, thousands left their homes since turkey opened its boarders on friday. they were fleeing an offensive by the islam ilk state of iraq in the laugh ant in syria, men, women and children struggled to make the long journey to safety. we left our homes because we were very close to the fighting. the situation isn't safe there. we feared for our safety. so we came here. >> isil has seized dozens of villages close to the border with turkey in recent days and has been putting into the kurdish town also known as kabani in the far north of

aleppo probts. the unhco said it's stepping up esc able toing the fighting between kurdish forces and isil in the past 24 hours. the tensions rose as authorities temporarily closed the border. a crowd had gathered to show the support for kurdish rebels battling against isil's fighters in syria. some remained at the checkpoint waiting to see what was happened back home while others prefrld to cross over and join the thousands already displaced. only a few were lucky enough to find refuge with relatives in nearby towns. though they, too, remain anxious about their future. even though we managed to escape, we can't stay here forever. the kurdistan workers party has renewed its call to arms to help protect the border region. it stated supporting the heroic resistance is not just a debt of honor for the kurds but for all of the middle east people.

just giving support is not enough. isil must drown in the blood it spills. the use of kurdistan may flow ways to kabari. until recently, they fought a bloody civil war that killed thousands of people. this apparent show of solidarity could be seen as a sign of how isil is shifting allegiances in this region. al jazeera. still ahead this half hour, getting paid under the table means no taxes. we'll tell you why many mexican businesses now want to go legitimate. plu plus, you think we are not capable? if it was a marshan, we would do it like that. >> celebrities join mass marches on the streets of london and new york to draw attention to climate change.

>> every saturday, al jazeera america brings you controversial... >> both parties are owned by the corporations. >> ..entertaining >> it's fun to play with ideas. >> ...thought provoking >> get your damn education. >> ...surprising >> oh, absolutely! >> ...exclusive one-on-one interviews with the most interesting people of our time.

>> you're listening because you want to see what's going to happen. >> i want to know what works what do you know works? >> conversations you won't find anywhere else. >> talk to al jazeera. >> only on al jazeera america. >> oh my! stories here on al jazeera, houthi rebels and the yemeni government have signed a u.n. brokered peace agreement that will signal the forming of a new government. throughout the day, the rebels have been capturing most of the city's government buildings including the defensing ministry and parliament. after months of arguing over who won the afghan presidential election, rival politicians have signed a power higher sharing deal. ghani will replace karzi and abdullah al dual a will cross who gets the new post of chief executivors turkish protesters

firing on the border with syria. united nations have 70,000 syrian kurds across the border into turkney just 24 hours. victims of the kenyan shopping center emergency, 67 people were killed when al shabaab stormed the westgate mall in. narrator: nairobi. he said he will keep fighting until peace and stability is restored to the region. catherine has more from nairobi. four people are in trial in connection with the westgate mall attacks. they are said to have at some point communicated or helped the gunmen. the leader of al shabaab who authorized the attack was recently killed by a u.s. drone, but a lot of questions about what really happened inside t s these walls of westgate remain unanswered. people want to know why

intelligence reports that an attack was imminent or not acted on. four gunmen while the military blew up part of the building, what really was the end game. since the siege, there has been several other attacks in kenya. police have been accused of failing to prevent those attacks. t the borders are not secure. anyone with money can bribe their way into the country. i spoke to the police spokesman who acknowledged these problems are being faced by the police. he said they are working on coordination, not just between government institutions but with the public because it's now clear that these groups are in the country and kenyans have been used to carry out the attacks. >> thousands have marched in london to demand action on climate change and organizers estimate more than 100,000 people are taking part in a protest on the streets of new york. the demonstration in midtown manhattan will include ban

ki-moon as part of a global protest that includes events in 161 countries. joining us live from the march in new york. sounding pretty rowdy. who is organizing this? what are they demanding? >> well, laura, it is a very huge crowd. we have been standing here at the beginning of the march for the last two hours now and i don't think we are halfway through it yet. it's a very broad and diverse coalition that is behind this march. demanding national and international agreements dealing with the problem of climate change. and that was really the point of the organizers to show a broad consensus. right now, we are seeing youth groups marching to organize by themes started out with communities on the front line of climate change, indigenous

groups, groups seeing their neighborhoods swallowed up by raising sea levels and facing the brunt of storms like hurricane sandy that destroyed a lot of property here in new york and those people are coming out and saying that climate change is real. it's affecting us now and we want to make our voices heard. we are also seeing labor unions as part of this movement. >> that's unusual and a switch. these are groups that have traditionally been concerned about jobs and the economy. but they are telling us that it's going to cost more if we don't address this problem now. so again, a very broad and diverse coalition coming together to show that this is not a special interest issue. it's an issue that affects all of us. and they are trying to get world leaders in town for the united nieingsz pay -- and the general assembly to pay attention. >> they have managed to gather a lot of people and prepared to make a lot of noise. what else are we expecting to see today?

>> well, just a short time ago, there was a moment of silence followed by a huge cacophony of noise sounding the alarm for climate change, about 29 bands taking part in this event and they were all blowing their horns, people blowing kazoos. lots of clothes and interesting costumes and so on. i should mention there is a key demand here that the marchers and activists are looking for. they want a limit of two degrees celsius. they don't want climate change temperatures to rise more than two degrees celsius. they want to phase out carbon emissions entirely and shift to 100% clean energy by the year 2015. so that's the message. we will see if anyone is listening. >> that's good. getting pretty hard. thanks very much kristin. well, tim friend has been at the climate change, climate march. this one in london. >> here in london, they turned out in their thousands to demand

action on climate change. you can see the morisetting off in central london. they are already on their way to parliament square just a few hundred meters down the road here all sorts of lobby groups. some people have come as individuals. let's talk to a couple of them and see what their views are. why are you marching today? why is it important? >> i believe climate change is something that affects us all whether you are -- from all walks of life. >> a march like this can change it? >> yes. it can. it shows people care about climate change. it shows people don't just care about cute animals. they care about the underlying things affecting all of us. >> we have to tell it like it is. we are over unless we get carbon free by 2030. our toemperature will raise. it's rising 3 times fat earn anywhere else. we know this is happening. there are four-star generals who say the threat to national security by climate change is

much greater than anything else. it's like an attack by the martians only we are the martians. if there were an attack by the march russians, what would we all do? it would be like one of those films. we would get together and say what with are we going to do? cut climate emissions. do you think we are not capable about that? if it were a marshan, we would do it like that. >> the passion is clear. whether they can succeed in making those people in new york at the climate conference change their minds and produce some action is another matter. >> paying tax is unpopular in many parts of the world, including may mexico. many mexican workers are paid what they call under the table, without telling the tax man. now, the government's trying to change that by offering cash bonuses and tax breaks. adam rainey reports. . >> i guess lunchtime in mexico city. for the past 12 years, javier sanchez and his family have run

this sushi stand with cash only, invisible to the tax man. business is good but being in the so-called informal market, they can't get loans, social security or other benefits. so they're planning to go above board. >> it's all about becoming formal and getting support to maybe grow more. we want to stop being informal because we have been in the business for many years and the goal is to grow. >> she's been convinced by a new government scheme, let's grow together. it offers cash bonuses, tax brakes and social security to people who sign up. part of a packet of reforms meant to modernize the economy, it's aimed at the 28 million people or nearly 60% of workers who get their wages and don't tell the government. also known as being paid under the table. mexico's finance secretary says the program is good for the economy and workers. on average, formal businesses have a productivity to 3 times

higher than those in the formal economy. the informal economy, wages and benefits are clearly lower than those in the formal market. although the government is looking to spends millions of dollars on these cash hand outs and on these incentives, in the long run, they hope it pays off because if they can convince all of these people who work in the informal sect to get on to an official payroll and in the end, they will be able to collect millions of dollars in taxes. as it stands, mexico has one of the worst tax collection rates in the world. it relies on profits from the state oil company to pay for a third of all government programs. but under the new energy reform, the government won't be able to easily raid those profits to pay for tax shortfalls. most informal workers are wary of declaring what they other than based upon government promises. >> we don't believe the government. we don't trust them because we have seen that is not true. they promise, but they don't deliver. . >> there is a slick campaign

aimed at such skeptics. in this add, a pregnant woman vince her husband they can safe better and buy a new house if they become formal workers. >> but the stress runs high among mexicans who see their government as corrupt to the core. it will clearly take more than a pr campaign and promises to get millions of workers to come clean on what they earn. adam rainey, al jazeera, mexico city.
