at least 700 people, so that is hundreds of people missing and if they're not found that the constitute the biggest loss of life since this began in 2011. >> what have been some of the political reactions? i understand the italian prime minister has been calling his counterparts in europe. >> there is a lot of pressure. there's been pressure building all week. in monday of last week, we had another boat go down with an estimated 400 people losing their lives. now, just last night saturday night, we've got to 10 shelly 700 people losing their lives. the numbers are getting bigger and bigger and the pressure on the european leaders is getting bigger to find a comprehensive solution and some kind of humanitarian responsibilities, as well. italy's prime minister is insistent that there has to be

some way of saving these people. it's not enough to try and close the borders. it's not working not deterring people from setting off from north africa and the burden of rescuing them and taking care of them is fouling on greece and italy, he's been speaking today with the french president francois hollande, he spoke had the maltese prime minister. they hope for more concerted action i don't mean europe. the policy chief is going to table the issue of the migrant problem at a meeting of foreign ministers in luxembourg on monday. the hope is that european leaders from the northern countries come up with some way to relieve the pressure on italy and greece when it comes to coping with the influx of playingmigrants we've seen.

>> >> it is very important and good news for president hadi and his camp the new government in exile in riyadh. this phenomenon of soldiers shifting sides and moving towards hadi's camp has been going on for the last couple of weeks, but now is gaining some momentum. we understand that before the beginning of the airstrikes, only one military brigade was loyal to hadi and it was actually not in one place, it was dispersed. now we are talking about 10 military brigades and the latest is this one today in a large territory on the southern border of saudi arabia, almost half of the border, so it's a very, very important strategic development for the saudi coalition and pat

hadi. there is something known about the army in yemen. it is more tribal than national, and more tribal than ideological. the majority of soldiers in that army are from the north because of the policies, but also, sectarianism in yemen is deep rooted and expediency move the soldiers from one side or the other rather than ideologies or sectarianism. it is opened that this phenomenon will grow. president hadi doesn't have a minister of defense. he doesn't have a central command, an army central command. >> we are seeing some victories for the pro hadi camp in taiz and aden where the popular witnessessance forces managed to

recapture his home. >> alongside with the factions in the army, we see some results for hadi. we see progress in taiz and aden because of the better organization of the popular committees and because of the help of airstrikes. we see the popular committee's today in aden able to take back the home of president hadi and the in other areas adjacent to it. we see them also taking a stadium, a sports stadium inside taiz that was opened by the houthis after an air strike this morning targeted this stadium. hundreds of fighters from the houthi side were seen dispersing and trying to felt into the population. they were chased by the popular committee's inside taiz in the streets. the scenes there of disintegration among the houthis and sala side on the part of the army and part of the houthi fighters inside taiz. we have to wait for this to get

through probably in the next few days. >> that's reporting live from the saudi-yemen border. >> the human cost of war in yemen is high and very visible in its hospitals. government facilities are overrun with injured. we have this report. june these are just some victims of war in what's become an increasingly desperate situation in aden. most of the injured are civilians, including children. some people have been seriously injured, but are grateful to have survived. >> i'm injured but still thank god. i've already had two operations, i'm still waiting for another one. >> there's a massive shortage of food water and medical supplies across aden despite aid. some left to escape the airstrikes and fighting. houthi positions are targeted.

saudi arabia has been allowed to take control of some air spares and territorial waters to get more aid in. there are only three government hospitals open to treat the injured in aden. hospital beds are full. it's very difficult to reach shsome of the injured. medical workers say ambulances have been stolen and medics targeted in the fighting. >> we're receiving 5-20 people every day. some people are slightly injured, others in a serious condition. some have died when they could have been saved. roads are blocked by the fighting. >> the red cross says the situation is already very bad in aden and it's civilians paying the price. al jazeera. >> the u.s. says more than 90,000 people have fled fighting in anbar in iraq. a military offensive against

isil has presented people to leave, trying to find refuge in baghdad. many aren't allowed in. the defense ministry said they must have permission to enter. we explain. >> a sea of people on the run escaping isil, which is about to fully control ramadi. they've been walking and driving, taking whatever they can, men women young and old. this is a terrified population with no place to stay. some have been stuck near this bridge in southern baghdad. they are angry with their politicians and tribal leaders. >> they don't care about us. look at our conditions. though sold us. their cowards and traitors. >> we slept on the streets in the open in miserable conditions. we left everything behind. >> where are the politicians?

they fled and are sitting in homes. >> people who fled speak of furious basses, say bodies are scattered in are ramadi. isil is closing in on the city center. 65% of anbar is under isil control. the government sent reinforcements but this is going to be a long battle. mosques across baghdad have opened their doors to shelter the displaced. this is their new home, but everyone here was allowed to enter baghdad only after being sponsored by the highest religious body. >> 250 people live here, scattered in rooms like this. we are not allowed to film them for privacy, but they are all over this compound. there are future mattresses. they are living in tougher conditions. they were allowed in after they were sponsored by the sunni indictment because the government imposed restrictions

to enter baghdad. >> the number of people coming to the capitol has made the authorities nervous. families need a sponsor to get in. some accuse the government of being indifferent. security officials say isil may have infiltrated the crowds and they need to cross-check. but those still stuck feel not welcomed. >> they want a sponsor to let us in. what? aren't we iraqis, hit us, kill us or just flow us away if you don't want us. we are iraqis. >> it is asked for more weapons and troops for anbar and removing isil from the province is not going to be easy and probably will take a long time. these people are likely to remain displaced not knowing when they can return home. >> kurdish forces in iraq captured two villages near the northern city of kirkuk. the kurds say they are using the

villages as a base to push back isil fighters. kurdish forces have been retaking territory from the goop since last year. >> ice r. islamic state of iraq and the levant released a video of killings, showing two groups of captives held by isil in eastern and southern libya. this video cannot be independently verified and it's al jazeera's policy not to show video of beheadings. >> there's much more ahead on the news hour. we'll report from athens, where the political careers of some parliament members could be facing a dark end. >> we'll look at why four months on from devastating floods, many in malaysia don't have a place to call home. >> the houston rockets take on the dallas mavericks. the latest coming up in sport.

>> afghanistan's president says an islamic state of iraq and the levant linked group has claimed responsibility for an attack in east afghanistan saturday that killed 35 and wounded more than 100. if an isil related group is involved it will be the first time the armed group has carried out such an attack in afghanistan. jam these are some victims of saturday's bombing recovering in a jalalabad hospital. they heard daish are to blame. people are angry that the government can't provide security. >> it is daish or taliban whoever takes responsibility, we condemn such attacks. the perpetrators should be punished. >> political in-fighting delayed planned government reforms. in some areas the taliban has

filled the vacuum. this week, the taliban tried and shot three men it says were found guilty of murder. villagers came to the execution and said the taliban justice system is needed because government courts don't work. others in ice sill claim responsibility. there's no evidence the armed group has widespread support here but there is potential for it to grow. >> the building blocks of daish exist in afghanistan. we have very radicalized got youth, a spread of weapon and ammunition in afghanistan so it's easy to recruit people for daish. >> even if there is recruiting, some say afghanistan doesn't have the sectarian history that allowed isil to flourish in iraq and syria. afghan security forces face the first fighting season where they're fully in charge. only a small nato presence remains to train afghan troops. the afghans received new

helicopters this month but their small air force covers just a fraction of the country. they need to improve intelligence logistics and medical skills. >> the u.s. state department said any isil presence here is a rebranding of marginalized taliban and is working with the government to monitor threats. president ashraf ghani will not now the group here. >> a charge could put former and current m.p.'s behind bars, accused of murder and racially motivated attacks. the far right party said the case against it all is a lie. we have this report. >> he claims he is a patriot who fell foul of powerful political interests.

the prosecution says he is the head of an army that killed immigrants and opponents. the trial of golden dawn leader and all of his mp's has been almost two years in coming. the indictment includes crime stretching back years. >> there was a political intervention in the justice system. these case already existed. the ruschry believed them to be unrelated. we haven't been charged but there was political intervention and immediate pressure to prosecute us. >> prosecution lawyer says the evidence is overwhelming. >> now that we have access to the full body of evidence, which contains speeches from golden dawn leaders, we can see that they specifically made reference to the migrants and all who were

against the goals of golden dawn. >> it was a public outcry over a leftwing rapper that prompted judicial authorities to go after golden dawn. >> prosecutors describe golden dawn as a criminal organization lurking under the guise of a political party. they point to evidence of military organization, a strict hierarchy and trained attack battalions. if that is the case. why did the justice system wait so long to prosecute it? >> with unemployment at 25% the former conservative government began a pose of incars rating undocumented migrants. >> golden down and all racist attackers enjoyed immunity from prosecution. the government had invested in the targeting of migrants as one of the causes of the economic crisis. >> golden dawn said the conservatives acted out of political fear. >> we were constantly going up in the opinion polls and were a direct threat to new democracy which is losing ground.

>> golden down said it will respect a verdict based on the facts. it has certainly proven politically resilient. it remains the third largest party in the country. al jazeera athens. >> hundreds of people have gathered at the former silent of the oklahoma city federal building to mark the 20th 20th anniversary of the oklahoma bombing. the attack on april 19, 1995 was the deadliest act of homegrown terrorism in u.s. history. 168 people were killed, including 1913 who were in the building's day care center. timothy mcveigh was executed and his accomplice is serving life in prison. >> a rage be fire outside los angeles prompted more than 200 homes to be evacuated. firefighters were not able to extinguish the base as it spread over 175-acres in a suburb

35 miles east of los angeles. the fire cause is still being investigated. >> floods that lit northeast malaysia were the worst in did he go decades thousands of homes swamped and washed away by rising waters. four months on, many live in tents waiting to be rehoused. we have this report. >> building in the ruins of their home, these workers are helping people who lost just about everything in the floods last december. they are the lucky ones. they own the land they're building on. many of us don't. he is a day laborer. his rented house is unsafe to live in now. everything they owned was ruins or floated away. >> i'm worried. because i don't have a house. my wife is pregnant and due in september. we want to be settled quickly but we don't see any hope.

>> there are dozens of tented villages like this across the state. people have salvaged what they can. aid agencies are dealing with people displaced from entire villages like this one. ghost villages. homes washed away by the force of the floodwater, swept off their stilts. all that's left are the steps to a house. >> our main concern now is shelter, and the holy month of ramadan is approaching so we hope to move to temporary shelters by then. >> these shelters house people waiting for their own homes. safe and secure, communities are kept together. >> the government has pledged to rehouse those displaced in homes like this, but the state of many more is not confirmed. many can't rebuild because it occupied government land illegally and will be located. as many as 160,000 people need

safe secure accommodation that can withstandle elements. the process may take a year or even more. >> we were made to understand that the problem is implementation but we do not know the real issue because we leave it to the federal government to sort it out. we are focusing only on our side. >> while state and federal governments decide their responsibilities, it's left to charities to build permanent homes like this. it's a slow process identifying land that is safe and legal to build on. badly damaged infrastructure is being repaired and life slowly getting back to normal. many hope the work can be completed within six months before the next monsoon. al jazeera in northeast malaysia. >> the vice president of india's congress party is leading a rally in new delhi against the government planned land

acquisition bill. farmers are angry. we explain why. >> farmers gathered here from several states in new delhi against a proposed land bill. they've arrived to this valley to show the strength of their opposition. the central government came to power last year on the promise of development throughout the country. it says to build the roads the housing, infrastructure needed, it will need farmers' land. beforehand farmers could block development if they got together. under the new bill, the government can override farmers if they deem the development necessary, which is why so many turned out at this rally. this serves the purpose which boosting the opposition congress party. they were decimated in last year's national elections and since then have lost several state and local elections, as well but they've been the driving force against this land bill and the successfully stalled it in the upper house of parliament where the government is a minority.

the government said it is willing to negotiate with the opposition to get the land bill passed and will directly talk to farmers through radio broadcast and local meetings to convince them that this bill is good for everyone. if the size of this rally is any indication many of not convinced of that. >> a new report from the united nations revealed a record volume of e-waste was discarded last year washing machines, computers and other electronics contain toxic elements. june last year, a record 41.8 million tons of e-waste was discarded around the world 2 million more than the year before. the u.n. says as much as 50 million tons could be dumped by 2018. if you loaded this waste into 40-ton trucks and parked them bumper to bumper, it would

stretch new york to tokyo and back again. put it another way it weighs 110 times more than the empire state building or seven times more than the great pyramid of geeze is a. as the waste gets bigger, so does the problem. 300 tons of gold, about a 10th 10th of global production and 1,000 tons of silver is left unrecovered in the waste. there are millions of tons of harmful lead, mercury and other compounds being dumped. much of the e-waste is shipped to developing countries and it's here the toxic elements end up in the environment and poison people. europe's banned the shipment of e wasn't and campaigners want other countries to do the same while investing in recycling. they say without this, the

growing e-waste will be grow. >> still ahead we'll tell you how antibiotics given to animals could affect your health. >> for the first time since records have been kept, more than half of all u.s. public school children are growing up in poverty. we'll have a report coming up. >> in sport former germ champion confirm who will replace their coach.

thrown their support behind president hadi. now backing the saudi-led campaign against the houthi rebels that is entering its 25th day. >> more than 90,000 people fled fighting in anbar. the military is trying to drive out centerout islamic state of iraq and the levant from are ramadi. >> the head of the catholic church has called on the international community to help with the growing problem off the coast of italy. in the past week, more than 10,000 people have been picked up by italian ships. 450,000 people were rescued and taken to sicily. there have been 900 deaths so far this year. that does not include this latest incident. >> joining us now is hugh

williamson from human rights watch. thank you for being with us. italy has said it cannot cope with this crisis alone. what do you think should be done at the european level to deal with this tragedy to prevent such tragedies from happening again? >> this is obviously an unbearable tragedy, 700 people dying in the mediterranean in one day, 1100 over the last few days. the e.u. needs a clear and bold response to this, and their response needs to be the immediate creation of a search and rescue operation in the mediterranean. the e.u. is schedule would to hold an emergency meeting tomorrow which we welcome that that scheme needs to cover the

entire mediterranean and these two focus on saving lives and not just protecting europe's borders. >> we'll let you switch your phone off there. so we heard from the italian prime minister today who said that there was going to be an emergency meeting at the european level in the next few days. the eu commissioner said in the past that the only way to deal with this crisis was to deal with the root causes of the problem, going back to the countries, libya off the coast where these migrants come from. what do you make of that? >> we make of it that of course the e.u. needs to work with countries in northern africa, and eritrea to deem with the root causes. we're very concerned their statement can involve nothing to do with search and rescue. when the e.u. works with eritrea

or libya they need to recognize countries where there are severe human rights abuses going on. there are clear reasons why desperate people of leaving these countries. it's going to be difficult to stop people from leaving the countries, unless the countries provide better human rights conditions to prevent those departures. >> some political parties in europe said that the only solution would be to close the borders and that rescue operations such as the ones taking place in italy recently, only fuel, i mean, only lead to more people coming and the only way to deal with this would be to close the borders. what do you respond? >> i think the proof is clear. until act last year, there were search and rescue operations to save people in the mediterranean, tens of thousands of people were saved since october, that the operations

have been scaled down as a signal to people to not try to cross the mediterranean. sadly, tens of thousands of people are still fleeing post and human rights abuses and still coming across and dying. it's europe's moral obligation, it's own policies say they should be saving lives in the mediterranean. it's no way to close the borders. people would still be coming and deaths continue. the u.n. needs a more human approach and needs to find legal, safe ways for people to enter so they don't major the dangerous crossing. >> thank you. >> in pakistan, many in tribal areas still rely on local council known as jirgas to rule disputes. some daughters have to be given away at compensation.

even some local leaders now say this practice should be scrapped. >> she is paying the price for her father's crime. when she was five, he killed a man in their village during a dispute. a meeting of tribal leaders known as a jirga agreed that she would be handed over to the victim's family as compensation for the crime. >> i was struggling with my husband, was it her fault? you killed someone, not her. i told him you should go. >> in the end, the father defied the council's order and kept his daughter. >> there was tremendous pressure from my wife and my daughter was just a child. i realized this was brutality towards her. >> he is still afraid the victim's family will try to kidnap or kill her. this campaigner said she supports the tribal councils, as

long as they don't violate the rights of girls. >> people don't want to admit that a girl who is ultimately going to go to an enemy's home to pay the price of her father's crime or her brother or her uncle, she's going to be mistreated. she's going to be treated like a slave for the rest of her life. >> the culture of giving daughters away as compensation for murder is slowly changing. many communities no longer support it and it's not acceptable, but when it does happen, families are doing it in private, because they don't want the police to find out. >> four years ago, using girls as compensation became illegal in pakistan. since then, hundreds of tribal elders and families have been arrested and jailed.

>> it has been people think that it is only dealt with this way. >> they say tribal councils are changing. they say they no longer give girls away permanently. >> now we symbolically present the girl to the aggrieved family. behind the scenes, it's already agreed they will return her with honor and respect. >> she was a little girl when the council promised her to another family. now she says she wants to study law and make the tradition a thing of the past. al jazeera, pakistan. >> in afghanistan, security forces there say 12 bomb disposal experts have been kidnapped, captured in the eastern province. the deminers did not want

you have to change it, because that means it's not effective. >> just a few kilometers away in the city, it's takeaways like this where is chickens end up. every day all across the developing world, more and more people are eating food like this, not only chicken, but all kind of meat and animal products. growing populations mean more mouths to feed. in the giant emerging economies, china and brazil, it's expected to grow for decades to come. here in kenya, the boom has just begun. >> more meat means more antibiotics. that means more bacteria will become resistant. scientists say common infections easily treated now will be untreatable and fatal in the

future, not just in animals, but in people, too. here at the headquarters of the international livestock research institute, scientists detected a rapid increase in bacterial resistance in developing countries. a paper was just published on by this biologist. >> we are just gathering the magnitude of the problem of antimicrobials resistance it's a massive problem that's affecting everyone in the world, just going to get worse and worse unless we start to deal with it now. >> farmers can't really deal with this massive problem by themselves. keeping his chickens healthy using antibiotics keeps his family fed and children in school. in developed countries, farmers use less of the drugs because of regulation and public pressure but farmers in the developing world are going to need help to do the same. al jazeera, nairobi, kenya.

>> in venezuela, recent tension with the united states has prompted the government to relaunch a program to form local militias. the new recruits are to undergo basic military training but in the country with one of the highest murder rates the ideas of arming civilians is causing concern. we have this report from caracas. >> what seems like an ordinary military parade was for the militias gathered a reason to accurately operate. for outside observers this is cause to concern. >> we have training and knowledge of how to use weapons. we feel confident in case of an invasion. if someone intends to hurt venezuela, we will take up arms. >> the revolution has been jen listing civilians into their resistance program. >> the venezuelan government collected over 10 million

of armed civilians is raising alarm. >> i hear all this thought that giving weapons and military training to civilians. >> what effect the militias will have over venezuelan society remains to be seen. verge lopez, al jazeera caracas. >> in the united states, the gap between rich and poor is widening. we have this report. >> a new analysis shows 51% of u.s. public school children are eligible for the federal free or reduced price lunch program,

children across social class would come together in a common setting to learn together, to learn from one another to promote greater equality in society and it would advance american democracy in that sense. >> as income inequality increases, that goal is slipping out of america's grasp. al jazeera, los angeles. >> stay with us on the news hour all the sport is up next. liverpool taking on aston villa right now. the english cup final the latest after the break. do stay with us.
