forces and their allies in and around the airport. a number of airstrikes forced the forces to leave the presidential palace a day after they captured it. >> this is a gimmick because they cannot keep that. they were on the top of the mountains. last time they had a hard beating. i am sure they will be on the run. they are effectively besieged. aden is a "penguins of madagascar." these people are blocked within the civilians. the unfortunate things that are hidden from the civilians from tops of the hills where they are remaining there? >> the fight for yemen could be a long one. the number of casualties continues to grow. the u.n. says it is concerned. >> i call on all parties involved to make their obligations under international law and do their utmost to protect the ordinary women, children and men. reports from humanitarian partners in different parts of the country indicate some 519 people have been killed and nearly 1700 injured. >> china has sent one of its

commitments. one of the commitments made by the government was the -- to continue the sin triv centrifuge but meanwhile, continue the life of the people the continuation of progress of the centrifuge are invaluable to tower economy alongside improves. this is getting closer compared to previous months weeks of times. after forming the government during the first one 00 days, the government in this regard took the first step and in

relation to the nuclear program, took the first step and achieved the initial agreement from that day, we were seeking to take the second step, this stepped was based on the efforts of months and previous days which was finally achieved yesterday. it was the second step. in this second step, we have the nuclear program and lifting sanctions and understanding with the international community,

three of these achievements are significant, invaluable for us. the framework which was agreed until yesterday means that the in the agreement would be way ahead we hope that until the first months of october, we take the final step and the fourth step which will be -- which will follow that maybe followed by weeks or maybe later on, reaching to the final agreement. the agreement which we reached yesterday, 5 plus 1 member countries have accepted iran can continue enrichment within the

their own land. the thing which she say until yesterday that the enrichment of uranium in iran is a threat to the world today. everybody accepts that enrichment of uranian does not have -- i would like to make it clear. enrichment in all nuclear program is only and online for the development of the iran. this enrichment program will not be used or is not against the world or other country. today, the world has realized that iran is a peaceful country in pursuing their peaceful mission. in this framework, it will be

activated with modern programs about which some things will be suspended for the it will always be active. there will be more than 1 centrifuge with further nuclear end continuing in aden. according to this framework, all sanctions, financial, economic in banking from the day of the agreement will be lifted. on the day of agreement, all revolutions against iran meaning six resolutions against iran will be terminated and from the day of agreement, new cooperations in nuclear and in

other aerlz with the world will start a new phase with the entire world. therefore, the framework which we have ahead receive the approach of this government has been successful. our approach was that in today's world, thet anything others is invaluable threatening others is meaningless and we all should seek win-win situation, an agreement that everyone can benefit. mutual respect, mutual respect, common interests and achievements for everyone. some think that we should eitherfied the world or we should bow against the world.

we are against any of them. there is a third approach, and that is cooperating with the world. they say that negotiations took place under the pressure of sanctions. they know very well they are not correct t sanctions were not for the sanctions. those sanctions were to surrendered but when they realized that surrendering this nation was impossible and they realized that they were facing a grave nation they realized that sanctions were only negotiations. we were always negotiating with the world even during the sanctions, we were ready to negotiate with the world. therefore, the approach of the current government is if other

otherretsother respect us. if they do not, they will receive a respectful response. we respect them. today, this realization has been realized that respect has -- is the result of this approach that we have. the other point is that wherever we have arrived, the state that we have achieved today or we have taken today because of coordination and collaboration in every phase, step by step since last week we may not have

considered whether we have always benefitted from the guidance of the supreme leader and they always guided the government in the negotiating teams. here from this platform in from the supreme leader and all of those who have supported us to take this important step we seek their support and assistance in our way ahead. not only with nuclear programs but with the guidance and coordination and collaboration

of others in our nation. yes action for sure everything with the grace of allah. we will always pursue the path of fatima in following the path has helped us and will help us in the future today, we have exhibited beside the pressures in '92 elections. they stand the way they have exhibited they will stand after the elections in every we may to

go through difficult paths. it is very important to mention few things to the great mission. the first one, we in nuclear negotiations whatever commitments we make we will show to the world that we are not mistrusted. a new phase for the entire world towards iran's president as he hales an agreement signed or agreed to by negotiators from iran in western powers in switzerland. said the agreement reached

yesterday exiran can continue enrichment on its own land. he held that saying the enrichment seen yesterday as a threat to world peace is acceptable today. today, the world has recognized he said iran is a pieceful country. let's go live now to patty culhane in washington, d.c. when he outlined there some of the wins as he saw it for iran in this action the racketor in iraq will be activated but more than a thousand centrifuges will be back to work and sanctions, all sanctions are to be lifted i guess in a strange way, it perhaps is some of those points that some of the hardliners in the congress will agree with him on that this is too much of a win for iran. >> definitely seen some strange bed fellows there this is the stage after any negotiation, we see leaders go back to their countries and highlight the points they want to highlight. for example, when the obama administration announced the deal they put out a fact sheet for reporters.

the top line was all of the ways iran was going to not be able to enrich. but what president rhouhani just said there is going to strike a tone here in washington. he specially with republicans who are concerned about the deal. one of the things he highlighted is none of the facilities are going to be shut down. none of the centrifuges are going to be dismantled. that is a big concern for republicans. the white house is choosing to focus on the fact and what they say is that iran will have no path to a nuclear bomb that the fas don't matter and the facilities will be under intense inspections. one of the biggest concerns i am hearing in washington and this still remains to be seen how this framework is going to be shaking out is whether or not iran is going to have to come clean with the past military dimensions of its program that's been a defendant constant complaint from the iaea. it was hinted that that would be on the table. republicans are saying that has to be on the table or them to scuttle the deal. >> just to clarify: you will know this, patty, from some of the points which have been

released by u.s. officials. there will it be or the agreement does include plans to shut down some of those centrifuges and put limitations on the degree of enrichment which the iran can carry out as well as inspections. correct? >> 1 of the things vans can returned about is they will be put in a storage area that the aiae can give parts to iran if they need to replace some of these centrifuges that are still allowed to be there. now, that's again within of the big concerns for the republicans. they didn't want any centrifuge it is. they thought it would be a nuclear-free iran. obviously the president saying that's unrealistic. one of the things the president said is we have done u.s. president barack obama said sanctions haven't worked. what we heard from president rhouhani is saying they didn't go to the stable because of sanctions. so a little bit of spin from

both sides but at the same time sort of making each other's point. >> thanks so much patty:hane there. there is alex percent are now working technical details to turn the deal into a full nuclear accord. israel says the agreement will threaten the country's existence this latest report from west jerusalem. >> prime minister netanyahu, you will remember spoke to a joint session of the u.s. congress just last month warning of a deal with iran. he, of course will no doubt try to use his leverage whatever leverage he is with u.s. lawmakers to try to scuttle any chance of this passing through congress but it's very unlikely that he will be able to derail this bill. of course, this is an agreement that was reached not only with the u.s. but, also with other world powers as well.

so mr. netanyahu, who will no doubt continue his criticism of this agreement will struggle very much to prevent any kind of final deal from being reached. >> now despair and grief kenya vows it will not be intimidated after a university killed 47 people killed. the president has vowed to quote crack down on terrorism in the country. at least five people have been killed in an explosion in northeastern al jazeera, it happened outside the bus station a representative from the drivers union said it was caused by an explosive left beside the bus. 15 others were wounded. >> nigeria's newly elected president sessions boko haram is the country's biggest problem. many hope his background as an army general will help the government defeat the armed group. questions remain over whether he is the right man for the job. a report from abuja.

>> when president elect buhari gave his victory acceptance speech nech at the reiterated one of his top election campaign pledges, to eliminate boko haram and tackle en security. >> on the same day, chad's army said fors had killed hundreds of boko haram fighters. tests a reminder to the incoming president that the group may still be a problem. >> elijah should know a former soldier on the front line fighting boko haram in baza in december last year. he says the military did not provide soldiers with weapons. the military say he disobeyed orders and failed to perform his military duty. >> first and foremost, the

instruments, those are the weapons that the militaries are using. if whatever you bring. they will be used. >> there are other problems he will have to tackle hundreds of soldiers have been sacked. more than 50 are facing charges for mutiny were fighting boko haram and a dozen senior soldiers are facing corruption charges. >> many think bahari's background as an army general are a will help. some worry he may not be the right man for the job. >> he was in office over 30 years ago. it was a repressive regime and we are concerned that in dealing with the boko haram insurgency the threat it represents the tendency to want to use the same iron-handedness that existed at that time to deal with this

insurgency we believe it will be counterproductive. >> buhari says he will stop by taking stop of all of the tests to fight inexecute and understand why some are not working before revealing his plan those in affected areas wait for greater safety. abuj a nigeria. >> al jazeera has taken legal action to declare the detention of two staff by nigerian military as illegal and unconstitutional. then held in a hotel in the northeastern city of maidiguri since last tuesday hundreds of fishermen will be allowed to go home being held against their will. some were kept in kajz. this update.

>> huge excitement here in the far east of indonesia. a team has just announced to all of these people here from myanmar, cambodia and laos they can go home. it will bring them to safety because the team says after they have been speaking to these people they know they are not safe here anymore. the stories they have been telling are horrific. they are talking about abuse, bad language conditions. they have been working on the ships for many many hours, for many many days without hardly any rest hardly any food and even worse, hardly any faithpay. there was no salary. they got some handout. they are really really excited to go home you can see here this is all where they have been gathering. when they heard they were going to go home they went to the boat and this is what they took from the boat. this is what they have been living off for the last few years. some of them have been here for 10 years, for five years, they have been want to go go home for all of that time because when

they were sent to indonesia, they had no idea they were going to work here. they are applying for jobs in myanmar, thought they were going to tie lan. they contacted an agent. before they knew it, they were sentence here to the fishery company in indonesia, and the government says after speaking to them it was clear that they were used as slaves forced labor. this group is here, from cam bode i can't. they also are going to go home. people from thailand laos from the international organization of migration estimate around 4,000 of them are in this whole region. this particular company, there are a few hundred. the government is going to take as many as they can to another port addnd they would hand them over to the countries they are coming from.

the news government. if the government tries to take our land it will lose our support. prime primary modi is facing criticism for trying to change land laws making it easier to acquire land like this for development. some observers say previous governments like the united progressive alliance or upa coalition which governed india for 10 years until may last year did little to better the lives of farmers. >> the neglect has been a defendant concern not just with the modi government. i guess the small distinction is that the others paid lip service to the issues. this government seems to not even be interested in that. the land ordinance is one serious example of that gabra doesn't just want the indian government to come to its rescue. he wants it to better appreciate what his land means to the

economy because ultimately he said, it's farmers like him who feed a growing and prosperous india. al jazeera new delhi. >> a second black box has confirmed the german winnings crash was deliberate. french aviation investigators say co-pilot repeatedly accelerated the plane. he reset the autopilot and flew the plane into the french alps. 150 people died in the crash. to the u.s. where a man who disappeared at sea has been rescued. he spent 66 days in the ocean. the german visible rescued the 37-year-old 300 kimometers east of north carolina. he is being evaluated in a virginia hospital and says he is grateful to be alive. he mergency crews are on the scene at a massive fire at the ge appliance factory in the u.s.
