9:01 am
>> i have all the sport. one of the most iconic figures in cricket has died. we look back at the australian legend. >> we begin this news hour in yemen where the saudi-led coalition continues to target houthi rebels for a 16th day. a draft resolution would impose an arms embargo on the houthis. pakistan's parliament has called for a diplomatic solution. there was no direct clarity on that whether it would give military support to ally saudi arabia at any point. we have been following the
9:02 am
latest developments from islamabad. >> pakistan has said all along that it would take parliament into confidence and that the people's representative would then decide whether the saudi request for help, in what way to respond to that. after a debate, they came to a conclusion that while there was no compromise on the defense and security of saudi arabia, in the he eventuality that territorial integrity was violated, pakistan would go to any level however pakistan was against any military intervention in yemen saying that this was a tribal war, not a sectarian war and what was needed was proactive measures to try to bring everybody to a negotiated settlement and to arrange for a ceasefire, so the pakistanis saying they will stand shoulder to shoulder with the saudis if they were threatened, however would remain neutral as far as
9:03 am
the conflict inside yemen was concerned. >> meanwhile activists have released a video of what they say shows a popular resistance attack on the houthis in aden. independent capitol a weapons storage site targeted, used by rebels loyal to the former president ali abdullah saleh. last night a surgical team for the international committee for the red cross made it by boat to aden. a plane has landed in sanna carrying 16 tons of medical supplies to be distributed to hospitals around the country. a unicef plane landed in sanna. the humanitarian situation in yemen was already dire before the fighting broke out and now it is even worse. >> we expect in the coming weeks there to be an up surge in malnutrition across the country
9:04 am
whether there is a conflict or not. it was already a country with 60% of the population under the poverty line. that's not going to get better. people's revenues are going down cost of living up, and government services weakened, if not falling apart. >> the icrc spokesperson joins us live from sanna by phone. we appreciate your time at a time like this. can you tell me what supplies are finally start to go make it into yemen? tell me about that. >> the supply that is arrived today are exclusively medical and surgical supplies, bandages, i.v. fluids, all the necessary items to treat blast wounds and wounds that are infected by war by bullet and by bombs.
9:05 am
we are start to go send them to the field as soon as tomorrow. we still need of course to have all the security guarantees from everyone involved in this conflict be it by air or on the streets or in the ground, so that these medical supplies can reach the hospitals in all of yemen safely. >> can you tell me more about the security situation about the danger that you're workers are in trying to help people? have there been any violence directed at them? >> yes the situation is not easy for health worker, medical doctor or volunteer or dell get. it's not easier for us than the rest of the population. the fact is that today, you will see more across the country that there are hospitals that are victims of collateral damage. they are also pretty close to
9:06 am
the areas where the fighting can be intense. in aden we have a situation where one hospital had all its ambulances stolen a few weeks ago, two weeks ago we had three yemen volunteers that were shot and killed while they were retrieving wounded and there are as i mentioned before still dead bodies in the street. the situation is extremely exhausting for everyone, also challenging for the humanitarian workers and the holt workers. it's even more challenging for the hospitals that cannot operate and function normally. >> what other supplies do you anticipate coming within the next 24 hours or so? >> we hope tomorrow our second plane with 32 tons of medical supplies we've sent with five generators would arrive, because these allow us to fix the water system that has been damaged in some of the areas and to keep the water flowing. yemen is already a dry country
9:07 am
and when you damage the water system be it by that the fighting or by the airstrikes, it will affect the entire population. we hope that this plane would land in sanna tomorrow. we hope the procedure for this one to arrive will be easier than the one of today and this is what we can do, we can only hope that everyone understand and have all these supplies come in as quickly as possible. >> as quickly as possible indeed. thank you so much. >> there is significant opposition to the iran nuclear deal in both washington and tehran. many of the u.s. congress are trying to pass a bill to give it the power to review any final deal before diplomatic talks are concluded. the white house argues this would derail the negotiations. earlier on thursday, iranian president rouhani demanded all sanctions be lifted on day one of the final deem's implementation. world powers want a gradual reduction of sanctions instead. they hope a deal can be findized

9:10 am
2012 but the deal hit a snag when both sides couldn't agree on pricing. foreign interests in biting these fighter jets have surged especially after egypt ordered 25 aircraft in a $5.5 billion arms deal in february. until then, failing to secure a single overseas buyers since it was introduced. the french have used the aircraft in com bass missions. >> still to come, the powerful gun lobby in the u.s. is set to flex its political muscle at an annual convention. >> i'm interested in what could be the legacy of the world's worst nuclear disaster in chernobyl, open heart surgeries on babies. >> tiger woods return to action at the masters. robin will have all the details

9:12 am
burned them and pretended isil did it. >> the iraqi army took control of tikrit last week from isil forces. the military has told people it is now safe to return. tikrit was a major victory for the iraqi government and it did it with the help of 20,000 shia militia fighters. it is this group that some sunni residents accuse of burning homes, looting and ransacking government buildings. many sunni muslims from tikrit fled with their families to erbil in the northern kurdish region of iraq. >> obviously we are far from the actual scene. we don't know exactly what's happening there what you see on television that the shia militia has a negative impact. as a family not involved in any party, we hesitate to go book. >> iraq's prime minister that ordered the arrest of anyone breaking the law in tikrit or
9:13 am
other areas under government control. they are preparing to build on their victory in tikrit and push into other isil controlled areas of anbar province. this is the aftermath of shelling of an isil target in fallujah. medical sources told al jazeera at least three isil fighters and three civilians were killed in the attack. as the army and shia militia go on the offensive winning the trust of people like this man will be difficult. al jazeera. >> in having a civilians have been killed in two attacks in the eastern city of jalalabad. four are dead, 11 others injured following a suicide talk on a convey and a roadside bomb killing 12. >> newspaper video shows minutes before a white officer opens fire killing a black man. video from a dash cam has been released from the officer's
9:14 am
patrol car. we have the latest from north charleston in south carolina. >> here on a appealsful plot of green just over the bridge from downtown charleston, george knight thinks he knows the answer to a question that's been asked many times this week, would a police officer now be in custody accused of murdering an unarmed black man had there not been cell phone video of the incident. >> as long as it's on video, you have what the truth is. >> george knight speaks from experience. his cousin, daryl lee brayton was shot several times by police. dashboard video isn't clear bub the police's account was believed by investigators that daryl had threaded the police who felt they had no option but to use stun guns. when that failed, they shot and killed him. it's a similar explanation
9:15 am
offered by michael slager. there was a key difference. >> no one didn't take video of that night. >> dashboard footage from walter scotts initial encounter has been released. it appears to show that at no point does scott pose any danger to the police officer who had stopped him or anyone else. the legal requirement for the use of deadly force. without the cell phone video of scott being hospital as he ran away questions have been raised as to whether it could have been used to support the original police narrative that scott was the guilty party. >> another reason why a north charleston city hall on thursday there were demands for an independent civilian police review board to be formed and not just the introduction of more police controlled cameras. >> we no longer can have the police policing the police. we will have an outside agency
9:16 am
to police the lease democratic. >> that was how it decided that the officer who killed george knight's cousin could resume duties. >> barack obama and cuba's rule castro have spoken on the phone ahead of a historic meeting of the summit of the may. obama signaled he could remove cuba from the u.s. list of state sponsored terrorism. secretary of state john kerry said he made progress in talks with cuba's foreign minister. >> few people back then were certain of a brighter future, fewer probably thought we could turn the tide. well today the tide has turned, and it has been turning for sometime thanks to the efforts of everybody in the region itself. >> lucia newman joins is live
9:17 am
from panama city. president barack obama said that he wouldness on dissidents being present at the summit. how likely is that to happen and how would if a affect the handshake that everyone is expecting? >> it's a very delicate balancing act here. there are several forums surrounding the actual summit itself. one of them is going to be held this evening and president obama will be there it's a civil society summit and cuban dissidents will be present. there were scuffles, even fights between pro and anti cuban government activists outside of that forum just a couple of days ago, so it should be a rather tense moment, but it will allow president obama to say that he met with cuban dissidention and that he is supporting cuban civil society. that won't go down very well with the cuban government, of course but probably it won't make them angry enough to
9:18 am
prevent at the very least the handshake so many people are anticipating. >> what can you tell us about this growing dispute between washington and venezuela and how it really may underscore some of the divisions that are actually happening at this summit. might there not be a final declaration? what do you know about this? >> that's very interesting because while on the one hand we see cuba and the united states getting closer and closer, the problems between the united states and venezuela seem to be increasing particularly after president obama said publicly that venezuela represented a national security threat to the united states. they back tracked about 24 hours ago, an administration spokesman saying no, venezuela does not represent any threat to the country, but united states has not lifted sanctions against top venezuelan officials and this is what the venezuelan government is asking for they're making a big fuss about that at the summit. they have the help or rather the support of some other center
9:19 am
leftwing governments in the region so 95% of the final declaration of panama has been agreed upon, but that missing 5% may make it impossible for there to be a final declaration signed unless venezuela gives in and gives up on its insistence that an anti american clause calling for the lifting of all sanctions against venezuela be included. >> all right reporting live from panama city, thank you. >> as the high level talks are taking place life continues in havana where in many ways, it feels like things really haven't changed. we met a few cubans to see what they think of this historic political meeting. >> time seems to move slower in cuba shielded from the rest of the world by that the half century long u.s. embargo. enough change i guess the main topic of conversation here in havana raising hopes and
9:20 am
expectations plus some fears. >> there are changes on a number of regions that are very important for about the countries, and that's the way of building blocks to build trust which is one of the most important things that over the last 50 years has been lost. >> with washington and havana talking and the summit in panama coming everybody has opinions. nowadays they're not afraid to express them. >> the most important thing is to lift the blockade. that's fundamental that's what caused our people the most damage. >> the united states must establish relations with cuba to reach an agreement. they must respect one another. >> what i'd like to say is better human rights, justice and freedom of speech. that's what cubans want. >> it's been 50 years of hostility. we will wait and see what's happened. >> with the united states so close and the cuban exile
9:21 am
community there so vocal cubans feel like they know their neighbors, but if this rekindled friendship prospers, they're going to get to know them much better. >> they've been enemies so long, but it's only a matter of time before this becomes the official american embassy and before that he is seas become a link between two neighbors. there's still a lot of work to be done. >> firstly fidel castro, then his brother raul have survived in the face of add seriousty. >> i think raul castro emphasized that he wants a civilized relationship with the united states, that he wants people to learn the art of living together with differences. >> cuba has accepted that the united states has some legitimate interests that shouldn't be challenged. >> more than 50 years of
9:22 am
animosity and the resentment that that breeds will not be eliminated overnight, but there is a cautious optimism, a tank i'm expectation these days on the streets of do you believe ba. al jazeera havana. >> a leader surgeon in ukraine has told al jazeera that babies with complex heart problems related to the chernobyl nuclear disaster will die without medical help. the rate has scat rupeleed since the nuclear dozens. we witnessed one life saving operation in kharkiv. >> the baby only three and a half months old is clinging on to life. his heart has been stopped a machine takes over. >> without this surgery baby couldn't survive. >> the doctor leads what's
9:23 am
become known as the chernobyl heart team. he says most if not all of his cases relate to the 1986 nuclear accident. >> this baby was so big and as to strange not usual very hyper ability can be related to chernobyl disaster. >> after all this intense surgery, the tiny heart is beating again and there's now every chance this baby will survive. >> half hour later and mood is positive. >> blood pressure of baby 96 over 52. they have a good heart rate, so we're happy. >> within an hour, the surgeon who carried out the operation leads her patient to intensive care. the doctoring earns less than a taxi driver in ukraine's underfunded, poorly equipped health service. she reassures the baby's mother,
9:24 am
you can touch him she says, everything's ok. touch him he'll feel you. >> a very big thanks to those who did the operation. they have golden hands. >> me may have golden hands but most of the funding for training and equipment has come from overseas a charity in ireland has been at the fore front of the effort. foreign surgeons are also flown in for more complex operations. the doctor says that help my not be enough now. ukraine's government is making more budget cuts. >> we may start to lose kids, just simply, you know, we will not be able to provide surgeries. life-saving surgeries. >> as this baby waits in line for the next operation the reality i guess that unless there's more funding the
9:25 am
life-saving work here will be recognitioned or might even come to an end. andrew simmons, al jazeera kharkiv, ukraine. >> away board director at the charity chernobyl children national joins us live from dublin. we appreciate your time so much, can you tell us about the success rate of this particular operation that these children need? >> this operation is entirely successful and this is why it is so worrying and of such huge concern to hear the doctor who has had the pleasure to meet over the number of years in relation to the ukrainian funding. 6,000 babies are born each year with heart defects in the ukraine. 50% of them are not operated on because of lack of facilities and qualified medical teams in the ukraine. without cardiac surgery the children who need heart operations similar to the one you just witnessed have little
9:26 am
hope of living and beyond five years or even less, but with intervention and the success rate is fantastic. it's very high. >> so financially how have these operations been happening so far up until this point? >> up to this point chernobyl the irish based charity chernobyl children international, we run a direct intervention program into car keifer in the ukraine and we send about six surgical teams each year in can that conjunction with the william novak cardiac alliance from america, volunteer cardiac surgeons that we work with. about 20 children of operated on and for each of these missions and because of the nature of the volunteer work of these surgeons each operation can be carried out for approximately 1,000 euro.
9:27 am
>> go ahead continue. >> we have invested about 1.75 million to date in the ukraine, but this is not just a direct intervention. there's also a huge teaching component and dr. novak works with dr. igor to train the local surgeons side by side training, so that for the future, the cranes will be able to help to continue this, because what's very clear to us is that the rate of heart surgeries these are going to need to be continued, because children on a daily base are being born with multiple holeles in the heart having heart attacks having strokes. this phrase that was contained chernobyl heart the correct terminology for it is seize yum cardio myelopathy, and it's as a result of chernobyl disaster so
9:28 am
many years ago. now it's a genetic effect, affecting mothers and their fetuses being affected. >> let's hope these life saving procedures can continue and you have the volunteers and resources you need. thank you very much. >> one person has been killed and several injured following a large tornado that limit the u.s. state of illinois. these pictures show a massive twister barrels across an open field. that is huge. people across the u.s. midwest have been and to stay on high alert for severe weather as tornadoes also tore through parts of iowa and ohio. for more on weather let's check in with rob and check on another tornado prone country, as well. >> the u.s. is well known lesser known maybe is bangladesh. bangladesh can have pretty nasty storms this time of the year, in

there. we're free for the next day. beyond that, the heat remaining and slowly building. sunday another day to be a little wary. >> ahead on al jazeera: >> on the last day of campaigning in sudan many people predict the winner of next week's presidential election. >> i'm in paris where it is a glorious day for tourists, but not for the national front quite a storm there for the leader and very outspoken father. find out why shortly. >> the cricket world mourns the loss of one of sport's most iconic voices.
9:40 am
>> many many other candidates, really serious candidates. this time as you may see from your report, there are about 15 candidates presidential candidates. it's difficult for anyone to try to remember any name of them except the president. i don't think the government rewards it as a real general election we used to have. >> basically, you are saying the environment doesn't people as though there is an election around the corner opinion having said that, the president al
9:41 am
bashir has a fix to the election? >> the results are already predetermined, results of this election because it's a one party election. only the ncb is running in the elections. there are a small a lined parties in the shadow, because even those parties were given some seats by the n.c.b. which decided at the beginning are running only for 70% of the seats and they are going to empty the 30% of the seats for the party to convene. right now it is not going like that. they will have more than 80, maybe 90% of the seats and rest of the seats are left for the party, but also this party is very small party unnoticed by the public, and they are actually telling it by some
9:42 am
excandidates which are running now as independent and i think they are going to take some seats. i think it is a predetermined result and everyone's expected that the n.c.b. will win the election. of course, penalty bashir will win the election. the question is now the percentage. >> that remains to be seen. thank you so much. >> thank you. >> in nigeria comments made by an influential ceremonial ruler are causing offense. he made the comments during a campaign speech, which has gone viral. he is members of the group would perish in the water if they don't vote for his preferred candidate for governor. he has tried to backtrack but some say it is inciting ethnic

9:44 am
his outspoken remarks too much for her. she will be blocking him from running at leader of one of france's regions she wants to distance herself from him. >> i think that deep down, he needs to show wisdom and accept the consequences of the turmoil which he himself has created and maybe give up its political responsibilities. >> they do not share the same ideology and do not belong to the same generation. there is a real fight within the party as to whether the father should remain or not. >> it's something many have seen coming. his outbursts have been getting more and more uncomfortable petitioner for her describe the nazi gas chambers as a detail of history, praising war time who
9:45 am
collaborated with the nazis her daughter's response, his status as honorary president does not give him the right to highjack the national front with vulgar provocations seemingly designed to damage me but which unfortunately hilt the whole movement. he intends to express his views as a politician who is responsible, free and always walks with his head held up, leading to a significant move from her to call a meeting of the party's executive bureau with him present to "find the best way of protecting the interests of the movement." >> for her the goal is to convince voters what it means to be french. while the feeling might be that that kind of history helped, it's the more recent history that is proving to be a hindrance, notably the various
