>> welcome to al jazeera from doha. dozens have killed in yemen trying to leave aden and get to safety. >> a judge in afghanistan sentences four men to death for the murder of a woman wrongly accused of burning the koran. >> a bittersweet homecoming for a man from nepal returning to

find his family killed in the quake. >> >> we begin this news hour in yemen where forth people have been killed trying to leave aden. rescue workers say the civilians were killed when houthi shells hit the boat they were traveling in. there have been more than 30 airstrikes in the north of the country. the saudi-led strikes landed in sanna and haja near the border with raid rain. we have the latest from the saudi capitol riyadh, muhammed tell us more about this incident in aden. fifty people took a boat from a district where there is a

concentration of fighting between houthis and the pro hadi resistance committee. on their way top another district of aden, to the east, a safer area in their judgment, they were attacked by the houthis, according to the reports and 40 of them were killed only 10 escaped. it's one of a series of incidents, according to reports where civilians have been killed in the fighting in discriminately and it has increased the humanitarian crisis there in the area where also the city of aden as we know is besieged in many ways by the houthis and the ali abdullah saleh loyalists and there is human organizations calling for a truce. it is a huge crisis there in

aden. >> u.s. secretary of state john kerry is due there in riyadh later, likely to call for a pause in the fighting. how is that call likely to be received there? >> you know, the saudis are not against the idea of some kind of lull in the fighting in some areas, but when we look at the situation now in the latest developments as the houthis according to reports have been able to strike inside saudi arabia and inflict damage in civilian areas for the first time, it is unlikely that the saudis will accept to stop the airstrikes across yemen. they may accept to do that in some parts. they have been talking about recently about safe zones inside yemen where the humanitarian release can be brought, can be shipped there and can be stored and distributed but it is a problem, because they have to put troops on the ground to protect those distribution points. they haven't yesterday clarified

how they are going to do that in the light of the heavy fighting there and the houthis still there in the cities and many injuries of yemen. yes, they are going to discuss this tonight with john kerry who's arriving here. the americans of course are going to push for a kind of truce or stopping the airstrikes that will allow the humanitarian aid to be brought there. the saudis are going to insist probably that they are going to maintain their airstrikes or continue them at least near the border as we have seen in the last 24 hours. they are striking at the houthis in many cities there in many areas close to the border. >> many thanks, live from riyadh. >> a judge in afghanistan has sentenced four men to death for the murder of a woman who is wrongly accused of burning the koran. another eight have been sentenced to 16 years in prison. the woman was killed by a mob in

kabul. al jazeera's caroline malone reports. >> the murder trial has been closely watched in afghanistan. the trial was broadcast live on national television. 49 people, including 19 policemen were accused, four of them given the harshest punishments. >> we have sentenced each of you to capitol punishment, death. our decision on these four people is not definite. they have the right to appeal. >> she was wrongly accused of burning a a koran boot ally attacked in central kabul in march. they beat and kicked her then set her body on fire. hundreds of people watched. some people even recorded it on their phones. that evidence was used in the case. her family were in court. her brother told al jazeera that justice happen not been served. human rights activists agree saying not everyone was brought

to trial. >> the real criminals are still free. i don't believe that it was a fair and free trial. announcing the death penalty or impress sonning but letting free most of these people of a hasty decision. >> the trial has successfully convicted some people involved in mob justice against women in afghanistan. >> it has a big influence on the public perception, this case was taken very much seriously that we have lots of cases where women were publicly stoned and killed and everybody would just watch and nobody was brought to justice. >> a sign has been put up in central kabul where the attack happened and a shrine built on the river bank where she was burned. afghan women carried her coffin at the funeral breaking with tradition. thousands demonstrated in afghanistan and other parts of the world calling for justice. many were angry not only at the crime, but that it happened in public while the police were

present. 19 policemen are on trial some say they called for backup, but none came. their verdicts and possible sentences are do on sunday. >> israel's prime minister is struggling to form a new government after a former ally the prime minister withdrew his support leaving him short of a majority. netanyahu has until the end end of wednesday to present his new coalition to the president. >> israel's parliament has begun its summer session but there is as i will no government in place. prime minister benjamin netanyahu party has 30 seats but he needs the backing of another 31 member to say secure majority support in the 120 seat chamber. it's largely because of this man that netanyahu is struggling, long time ally lieberman announced earlier this week that he would not be part of the coalition, effectively taking

six seats that knelt net so desperately needed to the opposition. >> this proposed coalition does not reflect the demands of the national camp and therefore i have decided to resign as foreign minister and clearly we are not joining this coalition. >> the major reason for lieberman's desertion knelt net's decision to include the ultra orthodox religious parties and his coalition. they demanded and netanyahu granted the reinstatement of special privileges, state welfare payments to the ultra religious and exclusion from military service for military students. it is precisely these privileges that members successfully fought against in the previous government. >> in addition to the religious parties, netanyahu signed a coalition agreement with calanu and promise the the most of finance minister to its leader and former member.

this gives him 53 seats. he still needs eight to secure the majority. >> this man controls exactly eight seats. bennett heads the jewish home party comprised mainly of settlers and rewarded as extreme right wing, even in the israeli political spectrum. >> i'm well aware of his present power. as king maker he is seeking pledges from netanyahu not least the treasured position of justice minister. >> few would have seen this situation. at best now netanyahu willing have a one seat majority and a weak government, dependent on the two small ultra religious parties. al jazeera jerusalem. >> let's get a palestinian perspective on this now from a

human rights lawyer and former legal advisor to the p.l.o. she joins us now from northern israel. the home party advocates annexation of parts of occupied territory, what does that mean for palestinians? >> well, it's not just the jewish home party but all of the parties com surprising this coalition that don't believe in any form of paying rights. you've got 61 members and if you include lieberman and his party 61 members of kin net set seat members that don't believe in any rights for palestinians. the next coalition however many people end up joining the coalition, you're going to see a shift to the extreme right reflecting the positions of israelis. the vast majority of israelis

have voted for these people. they voted for parties that don't believe palestinians should have any rights to freedom and certainly not any rights inside israel as equal citizens of the state. >> netanyahu's going to have to bend to even the smallest of his coalition partners, however large or small that majority is, as you said, that surely is going to make for an unstable government and put israel further at adds with its international allies, the u.s. for instance. >> well, one would certainly hope that it would put israel at odds with its u.s. allies and international allies. the problem is that they have been given carte blanche over the course of the past six decades to do whatever it is they want to do. in particular, this prime minister has been the prime minister has pushed for the most settlement construction, even without bennett or jewish home joining the coalition. it's not just a question of

whether one party joins but the entire outlook of this government. this government does not believe in palestinian rights. netanyahu himself indicated that he doesn't believe that palestinians are entitled to their freedom. what we're going to see in this next government is pushing more and more the settlement agenda. the question i guess whether the international community is going to do anything about it. i'm afraid to say that we aren't going to see the international community step forward and sanction israel as they should be. >> let's suppose that netanyahu fails to form a coalition by mid night wednesday night unlikely given that he's a shrewd political operator, but under israeli law the president can assign the task of forel a government to another legislature, isaac herzog perhaps, the most likely candidate. coalition pact between them would ensure a much more broad government wouldn't it? that would be better as far as

the palestinian cause is concerned. >> no, not at all. i mean, it's important to keep in mind while herzog i also not netanyahu, he's not voted in favor of ending settlement construction expansion. he supported the attack on the gaza strip. he continues to support the denial of palestinian rights. he supported demolition of palestinian homes so while he may look a little bit better and believes in negotiations with palestinians the outcome is very much the same. these are all leaders who believe in the denial of palestinian rights. for the international community certainly looks and sounds better but for palestinians on the ground, it's going to be the exact same. >> good to talk to you many thanks indeed. >> the earthquake in nepal is known to have killed more than 7,600 people and injured nearly 14.5000. the effects are felt around the world especially among nepal workers overseas.

buildings and pipelines have been damaged cutting the amount the refinery can reduce. people needle the refinery for gasoline and cooking oil, also providing fuel for the nearby power company. it has become a symbolic target for both sides. the biggest problem isn't seizing it, it's holding on to it. let's talk to the senior vice president for the security and intelligence in doha. why is an oil refinery so hard to hold on to? >> first you're talking about a very large city. isil has made good use of terrain there so when the iraqi forces attempt to advance snipers are causing a significant number of casualties. >> when you say it's big give

us a rough idea of how big we are talking about here for nobody who has ever seen an oil refinery. these things are huge, aren't they? >> if you look at the city, you are talking about 200,000 people living there. it is large. it's a key economic and industrial center, one of the large evident power plants in the country, as well. >> it's sustained a lot of damage in the fighting. >> it has. they are careful not to destroy the facility. they can use the high terrain to with snipers to stop the approach. >> they were forced out the iraqi government is holding on to it in the moment. >> this is going back and forth going back to last summer, isil is there pushed back, come back even continually today are there in some force. it is debatable depending what

source you are looking at. by some source last night, it is 80%. >> how does isil get the oil out of it and make money from that oil? who is buying it? >> first of all getting out that oil being extracted, it is being purchased on the black market. the key is the large have the refinery in iraq. they need them for their vehicles and heating. >> isil no longer has control of that refinery, it's in the hands of iraqi early. does isil have the expertise to maintain it? you can't just go into a refinery switch it on and out comes the oil. you need technical expertise to run it. >> they do not have that.

it may skirt and the rain will be a major factor. for the next couple of days, monitoring its progress, most commuter models are in agreement of it not going over land. on the other side of the pacific, across cuba, we've had rain reported for days and days, heavy rain across the bahamas too. you've seen very big seas, four-meter waves onshore. ten-meter waves offshore, storms in the pacific and looks like stormy weather there will continue. >> thank you for approaching the midway point on the news hour. still to go on the program fleeing war and poverty migrant women make their way to libya but their journey could end there. we'll tell you why. >> just a day away now. we'll look closer at the top

>> yes. three times we were able a send aid. the question is is that enough? no it's not at all enough. we need to do so much more of these convoys to reach children beyond the lines of conflict. right now, we are talking about more than 2 million children, syrian children inside the country that we are not able to reach on a regular base. >> so what you've done so far has been a drop in the ocean really. what sort of cooperation are you getting from the syrian government and various rebel groups that are operating on the ground. >> we have constantly negotiations to all parties of the conflict, the delivery of basic humanitarian aid to children who have been affected by the violence has become a bit of an ordeal throughout the united nations. that's why we welcome any opening, any window of opportunity that allows us to

deliver even the basics. we need more and more. >> another 320 rescued migrants were brought ashore wednesday in the sicilian port, rescued two days ago in two separate incidents by an icelandic coast guard vessel. one vessel was in trouble off the coast the other near the italian island. the libyan coast guard brought 120 migrants trying to reach europe back to shore. over the past three days, 620 people have been plucked from the sea off the coast of libya. thousands of people risk their lives trying to cross the mediterranean. it's often single women who face the most hardship. we melt with some who have made it as far as libya itself.
