[music] >> hello live from london. coming up recapturing tikrit, militia advance towards the city center in a fight against isil. the head of nato say they're still arming rebels in ukraine as they announce new sanctions. israeli parliament give maduro sweeping new powers. critics call it a power grab.

copyright ruling against pharrell williams and robin thicke. >> winners bayern munich are heading into the season's competition. >> we begin in iraq where government forces support shia militiamen are advancing into tikrit. they are aim is to retake the city from the islamic state in iraq and the levant, which has held it since last june. they are in the city to the north where they are in control of a hospital. shows troops along side heavy military vehicles, recapturing tikrit is significant because it gives them a supply link to the

city of mosul. stephanie dekker reports. [ gunfire ] this is northeastern tikrit, the iraqi army along with sunni tribesmen she ma shia militia push isil out of the city. >> we will retake it from isil terrorist groups. we started to retake the neighborhood on the outskirts of tikrit, and we're heading, by the help of god to liberate from isil groups and we'll advance from there to mosul. >> a freelance journalist shot this footage for al jazeera on wednesday. tikrit is controlled by isil. progress has been slow here partly because of boobie traps left by isil, and there is a threat of sniper fire.

they're confident that they will take tikrit. >> despite my injury and my commanding telling me to leave the battle, we will stay, so far we're in control, and we have the upper hand with no casualties as of yet. just slight injuries. >> but there are fears if tikrit fall shia militias to take revenge on the sunni population for being seen as collaborators and sympathizers. there are around 20,000 military and 2,000 sunni tribesman. the concern is if they can keep the peace after. >> sunni politicians have

criticized iranian involvement in iraq and are worried about the role that shia militia are playing there. >> there are external factors that will determine iraq's future. iran is waging it's own proxy war against the u.s. on iraqi soil. iran is more in control of the military operations than the united states. >> a response to the offensive in tikrit isil fighters have launched suicide bombers and one of the bombs exploded near a bridge in the western part of the city. and kurdish sources say that they have taken part of a large isil push. fighting has been going on for two weeks as the armed group tries to take nearby towns and villages. joining me now is a former iraqi government spokesman and now

political analyst. thank you very much, indeed, for being with us. just going back to tikrit, if the iraqi army and shia militia manage to retake it, how significant is that? >> it is significant because it is halfway between mosul the second largest iraqi city under isil and between fallujah andrea madand ramadi it is significant because of the way the iraqi army and militias are taking it would determine how the other two cities would be taken. it's also significant because a lot of sunnies are watching carefully the level of casualties and what is going to happen afterwards. it's a testing case for things to come. >> you referred to a massacre of around 700 soldiers wasn't there by sunni tribesmen. so some analysts suggesting that there could be reprisals as a result?

>> in a massacre was not done by sunni tribesmen. it was done by daesh by isil. and it was cold-blooded murder of nearly 2,000 iraqi soldiers and recruits. a lot of people are charged with anger. 2,000 is not a small number of innocent people, and there is fear of reprisal against one particular tribe there, but that is secondary. i think that the second fear is that can those militias be disciplined enough under the heat of battle and the atmosphere not to have excesses? that's the real concern there. i hope that this would pass, and it would become a turning point for defeating isil. >> how critical is the role of iran here? supporting the iraqi military forces how positive is it in military terms what would

happen next? >> sure, i think that in the short terms it is critical, iran is providing unconditional support to the iraqis, to the militias. it's giving them arms, officers, coordinators etc. but in the short-term that is great and fine. there are political consequences, and there is, of course, the long term because everybody knows once any foreign troop in any country are in, it's difficult to get them out. so iraqis are concerned. there are other statements from some officials that have raised iraqis' concern about the level of iranian presence and influence inside iraq. >> going back to isil, they tended to booby trap, and we've seen lots of roadside bombs and so on, how difficult does it make it for the iraqi army when they do retake these places coo deep them safe. do they have the capability for that? >> this is the difficult part. isil fighters are die-hard

believers, they do not care. if they know they're going to lose they will leave them behind them. this is the weakest point in the advancement of the iraqi forces towards tikrit is that everything is booby trapped and the land is uninhabitable. >> thank you very much, indeed, for taking time to talk with us. >> thank you. >> meanwhile over in the u.s. senate committee has been overshadowed by iran. u.s. secretary of state john kerry in another round of negotiations with iran e he's blasting politicians for trying to scuffle the deal. >> republicans in the u.s. senate are on the defensive after sending an open letter to iran's leaders. broadly seen as an attempt to kill the negotiations over its

nuclear program. >> this letter is about nothing more than stopping iran from getting an nuclear bomb. >> but it has backfired big time. democrats and some republicans say it was out of line for 47 republicans to warn iran that the next president can throw out the deal. and secretary of state john kerry said it's also not true. it's incorrect when it says that congress can modify the terms of the agreement at any time. that's flat wrong. they don't have the right to modify an agreement reached executive to executive between leaders of countries. secretary kerry will continue with the negotiations. analysts say they don't think it will impact the talks but it could help iran if a deal is reached. >> they could say no, we conceded all along. you didn't have your house in order. this letter, in the vent there

is no agreement by this summer makes the probability that the regime will stay intact is that much harder. it's hard to see how russians and others will strict to stick to agreement. >> it's likely if negotiators will reach a deal, it will stick regardless of what some senators say or write about. >> israel's parliament hasisrael--venezuela's parliament has given its president more powers. it is meant to fight against american imperialism. our correspondent has more from caracas. >> he began the message by asking us to reflect on the recently imposed sanctions that

the u.s. has passed on his stop echelon or top government officials. but what has started by a peaceful message took on a fiery note with maduro not only accusing obama of being the next nixon, but requesting the naturalthe national assembly to grant him powers against imperialist aggression that america may impose on venezuela. they named one official minister of the interior. clearly some call for reflection or peaceful measures or commitment from maduro to handle this in a peaceful manner, the aggressive tone and anti--u.s. rhetoric continues. >> after a few minutes the police chief in the city of ferguson has resigned after investigation found racially-biased practices in the

force. he has been under pressure since an "a" white officer shot dead an unarmed black teenager last year. >> live now to washington, d.c. and our correspondent are we surprised by this? >> well, certainly someone who had long contend there had was no racism problem in ferguson, the doj reported, of course, says that there is, and a huge racism problem. what the department of justice found was that the police department and court certainly in ferguson, a 20,000-person community, felt that the african-american community were not there to be protected but preyed on. the police force were targeting them arresting them, jailing them and then keeping members of the african-american community in jail until they could pay fines all the while the fines were multiplying.

it's called a modern debtor's prison in order to make millions of dollars for the municipality. the police chief said he didn't know anything about that, but this has been a huge vindication for the local community that has lone said, as for as they were concerned they were living under occupation. to use language like that in the u.s. you tend to be looked at, no one believes you but they looked at it and found it was true. they're expecting a press conference to come up in the next 10 for 15 minutes. i'm not sure if he's going to be there, but we've learn in order details about the severance package, and health insurance benefits for the next year. but it's interesting that the city council and he are calling it a mutual separation. >> and will it be enough to satisfy to silence the critics after all these events in that area? >> no, and remember, this has become so much more than ferguson. this isn't now the municipality,

ferguson and who is heading up the council, who is the police chief and so on. this is a national movement. if you're young black, american male you're 21 more times more likely being killed than the white counter part. it's gone on to become a social justice and nationwide movement that has sprung up and the other thing that has been achieved over the last few months is that there is a huge amount of attention being paid, especially on social media if not in the mainstream 3450 on a weekly basis another young black youth, unarmed is killed under murky circumstances. as far as demonstrators are concerned there is a long way to go. it has to be remembered, this is a tiny town, 21,000 people. they're preying on their black community, and protesters have

to ask can it be the only city in the u.s. who has struck upon this as a novel way to raise revenue? >> thank you very much, indeed. still ahead on al jazeera, government ambushed two advance carrying millions of dollars of jewels and along the french highway. plus. >> this is murmansk the russian arctic city that relies heavily on fishing. we'll tell i couldn't it's going throughyou why it's undergoing difficult changes. >> and we go to sports. >> signing off $17.5 billion loan aimed at helping ukraine's economy avoid bankruptcy. nato has continued to arm

continues to call for russia to withdraw. >> we continue to see iran presence and separatists in eastern ukraine. we see the delivery of equipment, forces, training so russia is still in eastern ukraine. they have a long period of time a substantial support for separatists. >> the u.s. has imposed sanctions on eight pro-russian separatists. penalties are imposed on the russian bank and washington said it will deliver humvees and drones to the ukraine. >> it's mostly it appears a symbolic political statement by the americans i think messages

they're still interested in putting the screws to russia, putting the pressure on even though the europeans seem to have lost their appetite for more sanctions, at least for the time being as long as the minsk cease-fire is in place. the idea is that there may be a rift widening between the united states and europe over the picturecy. the efficacy of putting sanctions on russia. >> another battle being lost in eastern ukraine the war on drugs. in donetsk dwindling supplies of methadone means that addicts are not getting proper treatment to get clean. and the share of needles has led to an increase in hiv infection infections. 238,000 people age 15 to 49 are

infected and more than 3.5000 people died of a.i.d.s. in ukraine in 2013 according to "world health organization" statistics. john hedron reports from donetsk. >> reporter: it's a nearly daily ritual. every morning but sunday bruce makes the rounds distributing needles, wipes and condoms. since the conflict in eastern ukraine, they are more in need than ever. donetsk is running out of the drugs it uses to get addicts off of heroin. >> they promised to look after us now i've had a fever for the past month. even if we can find t we can't afford it. we have no money. there is a war. >> reporter: ukraine's government has long supplied the drugs for heroin substitution therapy, but in separatist territory that all stopped when the year-long war began.

they would use two drugs it ran out of the first drug in january, and without new supplies, which don't appear to be fourth coming it will run out of the second by the end of the month. and heroin substitutes run out the use of heroin rises and since drug users tend to share needles, so does h.i.v. >> patients have to live on minimum doses. some have left the program and have gone on to detoxification to live without substitution therapy. >> 300 patients in the separatist cities of donetsk and luhansk has lost access to methadone since the conflict began. another 150 will run out soon. >> many will shoot up plus methadone because the methadone is small. now that they're back on the

drugs it's become harder because needles are expensive. no one has money. now many clients ask us to give them hiv tests. >> a few the strong, go cold turkey. the rest return to the street and addiction. john hendron donetsk eastern ukraine. >> moscow recognizes the breakaway regions as independent although they're officially part of georgia. after talks with kind counterparts, they have asked for assistance to strengthen their international profile. there is evidence that the main suspect in the murder of opposition politician boris nem nemtsov was for tortured and forced to con assess to the

murder. nemtsov was shot dead close to the kremlin at the end of february. now the sanctions between the russia and the west are now being felt in murmansk, and it has left buyers and suppliers struggling to adjust. >> a statue of a young woman watches the port's cold waters waiting for her fishermen to report. murmansk is the largest city along the art arctic circle. but an icery grip of sorts has enveloped the fishing trade, a political one. the fish factory has stop operating. buying fish from norway is now banned.

that's pretty much all this place did so it was particularly vulnerable. not all processing plants were so exposed but supply lines have been disrupted, and the effect is being felt in shops and markets. >> fish gets more expensive every day. it just went up 20% in price. >> and rising prices mean people buy less. >> the suppliers just called, but we're rejecting nearly all the fish now because there is no one to buy. >> two of russia's most popular fish types herring and salmon, were imported in huge quantities from norwegian waters. customers complain what they find in the shops these days is more expensive and quality is worse. of course, this has created possibilities for some. for this man who started farming

trout. >> if before we were trying to figure out if this would be profitable, now we see that it weeks very well. >> that's a small silver lining, and many are worried that lasting damage will be done. >> we have good relationships with norway. we should work together. if we could lose a common resource. we don't wish for sanctions on either side. >> russia's government hopes that farmed salmon will replace what was previously imported, but that's years off and her something a bigger problem. there is no easy way to replace that. so the sad lady of murma next sk is not the onlynsk is not the

only one who want things do get back to normal. >> nigerian military has recaptureed towns nigeria's military has said it has one town left to recapture from boko haram, the former stronghold of the group. more troops have been pledged to help fight against boko haram. they would be there to provide indirect support and not be involved in direct combat operations. >> french soldiers on patrol in the streets of mali, just one example of how the french military is heavily engage in its colonies in africa.

french troops are patrolling the area. >> to say that we are not the only country to have this goal and more and more we ask the european union to do more. >> on top of the overseas missions another 10,000 troops are currently deployed inside france itself, this is in direct response to the attacks in paris in january in which 17 people were killed. more demands are being made on the military than were budgeted for. this is a time of economic crisis in france. all government departments are under pressure to reduce public spending so that the defense ministry has had to make a special case as to why it should be an exception.

maintaining an army that is fighting-fit is an expensive business. while some units are on active duty others are training back at base. then there is the equipment. the army says it must have the most up-to-date technology to confront current and potential enemies. >> we have around 30,000 people deployed, that's almost one out of two. that's too much. and currently if we maintain this staff deployed, we have to decrease our training. >> france remains on its highest state of alert. the president wants to keep the current number of troops on the streets, particularly outside of synagogues and jewish schools. this military presence will be part of french life for some time to come. jacky rowland paris.

>> staying in france, the military police are searching for a group of brazen jewel thieves. 15 arounded robbers ambushed two security advance and managed to escape with $9.5 million of precious stones and jewels. the police say no one was hurt in the attack. the two advance from found burned out and abandoned. three countries teaming up to catch drug dealers along the mekong river. and we meet some of the bright young minds who go to the head of the class. and in sport this man will be racing in the grand prix.

>> weeknights on al jazeera america. >> join me as we bring you an in-depth look at the most important issues of the day. breaking it down. getting you the facts. it's the only place you'll find... the inside story. >> ray suarez hosts "inside story". weeknights, 11:30 eastern. on al jazeera america.

>> heavily armed combat tactics >> every little podunk wants their tank and their bazooka... >> with s.w.a.t. raids on the rise... >> when it goes wrong, it goes extremely wrong... >> what's the price for militarizing our police >> they killed evan dead >> faul lines, al jazeera america's hard hitting... >> today they will be arrested... >> ground breaking... >> they're firing canisters of gas at us... >> emmy award winning investigative series... deadly force: arming america's police only on al jazeera america >> a reminder of the top stories. iraqi government forces with support of shia military men have taken back the city of tikrit. secretary of state john kerry spoke with republican senators after they wrote an open letter

to iran and warned that any deal reached by the u.s. could be thrown out by the next president. kerry said that it undermined two centuries of foreign ministry conduct. and the police chief of ferguson has resigned after reports found evidence of racially biased practices by the force. >> in libya, peace talks resume. the united nations backing the talks, say that significant process has been made, but the government in tibruk has asked that the talks be postponed for two weeks. hamas, the palestinian counterpart of the outlawed muslim brotherhood said that the

ruling was a mistake committed against the palestinian people. appeals will be heard later this month. israel's foreign minister has sparked outrage after he said those who are not loyal to israel should have their heads cut off. he accused palestinians of seek seeking to destroy the country from within. many have asked that he be arrested and taken to the criminal courts at the hague. >> they said those who are with us should get everything that they wish. but those against us, there is nothing to be done. we need to pick up an axe and cut off their heads. otherwise we won't survive here. >> iran has announced draft laws that will restrict access to bit control and make it difficult for women to get jobs without children. some say it will set women back

decades and turn women into baby making machines. iran has been trying to restrict the population, and contraception has been subsidized by the state. iran's government is trying to reduce the number of women in the workforce. >> they want to ask women to go back to their private life, go back to private sphere and to stay at home. that's why they're bringing all these discriminating laws against women. what is the purpose of this family planning laws in parliament. i think the only reason is to restrict women's rights. they want to promote the culture of ignoring women's rights. they want to promote the culture that there is no place for women in public sphere the women should stay home and take up the babies and family. >> there has been an explosion

in somalia's capitol of mogadishu. two people have been reported to have been injured. no one has claimed responsibility for the attack. in the northern mali town has have demonstrated against an u.n.-brokered peace plan. the >> the south africa president zuma has been requested why asked why he spent $20 million to upgrade his home. >> never i thought the day that i would pay back the money. firstly, there is no money that i'm going to be paying back without a determination by those who are authorized to do so as

recommended by the public protector. >> he canerica woods has more. >> presidents are allowed to make security upgrades to their homes. but the $20 million that zuma spent on his house far outstrip any other president has spent. >> he was asked if he would be paying back the money during the state of the nation speech last month. he didn't answer the question.

the police were called, and the eff were escorted out of the house. in the latest question and answer session jacob zuma did answer the question vaguely. he said he had nothing to answer and he had spent nothing, taken not a penny from state funds. and instead he said that he's asked the police to investigate and whether he needs to pay back any money and if so, how much. until the policemen come back with an answer it is premature to ask him if he'll be paying back any money. as far as the public is concerned, they're frustrated how long this has dragged out. there are social issues in south africa, many of them, and the fact that he has spent in excess of $20 million on his home that, is hard for them to swallow.

>> two men are caught on camera mugging a south african journalist. he was seconds before going live on air in south africa when two men approached him with a gun. he did not want to give up his phone. a truck crashed in to a bus in tanzania. the police described a grizzly scene with many people trapped between two vehicles. in colombia, the president announcing a one-month halt in airstrikes in rebel-held camps. they acknowledged that the farc has honored a cease-fire and progress is being made in peace talks in cuba. >> another end to hostileities, but not yet. >> to help de-escalate the

conflict i decided to hold the defense ministry to cease bomb batterment over farc camps for one month. >> they cited practicing in the negotiations and the rebels overtwo-month long cease-fire for the reason of holding the attacks. the chief negotiator said that this does not mean a retreat of the military. in particular they'll continue fighting go ahead extortion e kidnapping and. there is no retreat. >> however temporary this retreat, this is a first step yet to the end of the hostilities of the 50-year-old conflict. but not everyone is happy. some fear the government is giving up its most successful weapon in its fight against the rebels. since 2008 three members of the rebel troops have been kilt as a

result of price air surprise air raid. they fear that the president is making too many concessions that is putting colombians at risk. >> we see our government has not said a word about that. >> the political analyst agreed this decision is mainly a response to a situation that has already changed on the ground. >> it materializes and formalizes the reduction in violence that we've seen, that the farc have been complying with these self-imposed cease-fire. now this is becoming bilateral these will, indeed, further reduce the levels of violence. >> peace negotiators will travel back to havana to continue the

discussion. some hope that this could push the talks further towards a final resolution. al jazeera. >> move to go southeast asia, countries along the mekong river are due to hold talks to combat drug trafficking along the so-called golden triangle. it's also one of the biggest opium producing regions. scott haidler reports that other drugs are making an impact, too. >> this has been the early morning routine for ten years. he readies his nets along the mekong river. fishing is not an easy living but it's more difficult here in the golden triangle. one of the most notorious regions for drug trafficking. >> trying to avoid any confrontation with drug

traffickers especially at night they use pier, like this one to unload drugs. i never talk to them because i fear for my life. >> they launched a program aimed at curbing illegal trafficking in the golden triangle. they say since the operation started there has been an 50% increase in arrest and seizures. >> an arrest in one country could lead to another arrest in another country. perhaps to drug kingpins. >> an example that have coordination happened at the headquarters recently. thai officials show how tea packets have been used to smuggle methamphetamines. >> about 5,000 soldiers and police officers are directed by

the mekong coordination center. in each country they work in several provinces either bordering or directly connected to the golden triangle here. from air trafficking to breaking up money laundering send cates. >> they only operate inside their borders. their joint investigations but no joint operations yet. >> it's a trust building exercise for china to work with myanmar, laos, a lot of barriers have to come town to trust each other. >> as nightfalls on a slow bend of the mekong, many will pull their livelihoods from the river. there are fewer traffickers as more fish.

>> indonesia has threatened to send a quote human tsunami of migrants to australia if if it does not stop its criticism of national it's sentencing of drug smugglers. australia's prime minister said he does not want them to be shot. pharrell williams and robin thicke has been found guilty of copyright violations. they will have to paid $7 million for "blurred lines."

[music] >> his family, which now owns the copyright to the late singer singer's music plans to appeal against the ruling while marvin gaye's family said they will seek an injunction against the track. >> i feel free from unpharrell williams and robin thicke's chains, that they tried to deep on us, and the lies that were told, and the fact that we were able to break through any way. >> music journalist david stubbs believes the worries of the effect the ruling will have are unfounded. >> some people are concerned that this adjustment might create a precedent. anything that has the kind of feel sounds textually, the sounds that have gone on before, but then these people would be liable some kind of lawsuit.

and people are concerned that since on that basis--you know, nothing is original, suddenly this could an legal jamboree i don't personally feel that is the case. i think the jury made the decision on the basis of the two songs, which are similar. if they're going to repeal thicke and williams, and they may be successful on that basis. >> the world's most powerful rocket booster it is a key milestone into the deep launcher. it is 75% more powerful before thethan the ones use for space travel. america got talent, not
