>> russia uses it's veto to block a resolution. i'm julie mcdonald. this is al jazeera live from london. a piece of the m plane that matches the mh 370 is found.

afghan government claims that taliban leader mulla omar is dead. >> this were no survivors when the mh 370 was brought hmh 17 was brought down over ukraine last year. russia has vetoed the tribunal for suppose for those responsible for bringing the plane down. >> we do not back the idea of the creation of a tribunal under chapter 7 of the u.n. there are no grounds for this. mindful the fact that the security council and resolution 2166 did not classify the boeing tragedy as a threat to

international peace and security. it's difficult to explain how the events that took place a year ago were not deemed to be a threat to peace and security and now all of a sudden have become just that. >> we have more now from the ukrainian foreign minister, who joins us on the line from new york. ambassador. welcome to the program. your reaction to russia's veto? >> of course, it is a very sad day for everyone. but especially for relatives and loved ones and of of those who perished in this tragedy. the whole sequence of articlement fully twisted. everything that is done is about a threat of national security.

it's about bringing about this truth. and those who brought this tragedy to justice. for that we need international try bunnal fully accountable to the international security council, effective reliable, and unbiased and fully transparent. if is our intention. >> ambassador we heard from the malaysian transport minister, and we heard from russia too they simply said that they would not be treated fairly, that they did not believe that they would be treated fairly, and the truth would come out in this particular way of doing things. >> it is an international investigation according to the rules. it is an international team

joined joint investigation team. what kind of non-transparency or the problem with excess to this data could come up? secondly we all know that you can't just shoot down the airport with any kind of capability except very sophisticateed answered air missiles, and we know it was. now we need to just to create an independent reliable

investigating body. we need to bring perpetrators to justice. if russia is so sure and convinced it is about other kind of truth at the end of the day it's still about international tribunal. >> joining me live from new york. ambassador, thank you for joining us on the program. >> now malaysia has sent a team to investigate the debris washed up. wreckage that looks like it's part of a plane's wing was found washed up on the island of the east coast of africa. one aviation expert believes it is from a boeing 777 just like mh 370. so far no trace has been found of the missing plane. it was lost carrying 239

passengers and crew from could youcouldcouldcouldkuala lumpur to beijing. >> with the wreckage found we need to confirm. we will dispatch a team to investigate on this issues, and we hope to identify it as soon as possible. >> the u.n. envoy to syria has proposal to bring an an send to syria civil war.

>> the union envoy presenting his plan to bring peace to syria. >> we have a deepening tragedy the u.s. is obliged and an all of us are to keep this issue alive, also the serious conversation and discussion that are taking place and we're hearing them around the region and elsewhere which may require to pass more time. >> he was referring to a number of important developments that the u.n. believes could be positive in essence this is a holding plan until they see how these things play out. perhaps in a matter of months the government will be prepared to make more concession, but

they also know that there could be help for the moderate opposition. >> there is nothing which we cannot do, and my essential is why don't you use this politically created great moment and there is a very important role by iran. iran is an important player in the region. >> when he addressed the security council the security council attacked their oh own divisions on syria and said that the conflict was a shameful symbol of the international community's failure. >> the taliban has denied a

claim by the afghanistan government that the leader of the taliban would is dead. maullah omar had been rumored to died in the past but none of those rumors had been confirm: mulrah omar emerged as the taliban leader back in 1996. the backing of osama bin laden after the 9/11 attacks. there have been a number of reports about his death in the last years but they were later dismissed. we look at where the information

about his death comes from. >> two sources in the afghan government. the afghan president's office and spokesman for the national director of security both saying that they believe that mullah omar died in a hospital in karachi in 2013. the afghan taliban denying that to al jazeera saying that mullah omar is still alive and in charge of the taliban. omar had always been a reclusive figure. he has nod been seen in public for more than a decade, really since 2001 and there are only a couple of photographs of him as well. he's always been an elusive reclusive figure. only the confirmation of his leadership in any kind of tangible form has been audio recordings released by him. of course, after the 2001 u.s.-led invasion here he went into hiding saying he was staying reclusive because he did not want to be targeted by international forces or the

americans here. but now conflicting reports of whether he's alive or dead, the afghan government claiming not only is he dead he died in 2013. the taliban denying that. the peace talks are to be held in afghanistan. this announcement and denial is unclear. members of the high peace council did not know who would be at the negotiating table on friday. they were hoping that whoever it is will have broad support among taliban fighters because the fighting continues. >> pakistan say they shot dead the leader of a group behind hundreds of killings in the country. he was shot in a shoot out. 13 others were also killed including two of of his sons.

the group has claimed responsibility for many tucks on shia muslims in pakistan. we have this report from islamabad. >> he and his two assistance had been arrested by pakistan security forces a week ago. they had been taken from detention to a weapons store where they were providing information about explosives. members of his group tried to free him. they succeeded but then they were intercepted by pakistan police and in that fire fight he was killed along with his two sons and 11 other members of the group. now this is a significant blow for the group. the area is alive with al-qaeda and it has been responsible for a great deal of

sectarian violence in the country. >> still to come on al jazeera, the british government hold as crisis meeting as more migrants try to access the terminal tunnel linking u.k. and france. heated scenes between israeli settlers and police.

>> a remindser of the top stories here on al jazeera.

russia veto a resolution to prosecute those responsible for the crash of the mh 17, killing all on board a year ago. the malaysian government will send a team to reunion island to look at a plane debris that washed on shore. turkish government has been holding an emergency meeting. simultaneous attacks on kurdish pkk targets are throatening the peace negotiation process that began in 2012. israeli forces have clashed with jewish settlers in the occupied

west bank successful broke out as forces began to demolish argument blocks. it came after the supreme court ruled that the argument were built illegally on palestinian-owned land. these buildings should not be demolished, but the appeal at the high court has had this going on. the prime minister has come out saying he has reapproved the building of 200 buildings here in the settlement. the settlement movement is very strong. but he holds a shaky position in

the parliament. he olds 61 votes outs of 120. this is palestinian land. this has proven the israeli high court has those adults. but the palestinian family who owns it will not be getting it back. and if the settlers gave permission to build structures then they can rebuild it. it shows the situation is extremely difficult the palestinians saying settlement construction goes to show that the israeli government is not genuine partner for peace. >> fans in britain has promised to breeze increase security at the entrance of the tunnel.

>> these people are the problem that europe wishes would go away. at a calais motor way migrants bide their time. we watch as some try to cross the road to enter the tunnel. the french police tell them to go away. they obey for now. the. >> police can't be everywhere. they say they're overwhelmed. at night the migrants try again in greater numbers. why are they so desperate to get to england? >> we speak the language english. >> we're looking for a better

life. >> also here syrians, eretreans and afghanis. they've escaped wars tyranny crossed deserts and seas. these people are not welcome here but they've come an awful long way and quite frankly they feel they have nothing left to lose. so whatever french or british politicians say they'll carry on doing whatever they can to cross the english channel. higher fences and more policemen may bring some order to the chaos around calais, but they are short-term solutions to a problem that will be with europe for many years to come. barnaby phillips, al jazeera, calais. >> the verdict in the retrial of three al jazeera journalists will be handed down in a cairo court on thursday. mohamed fahmy, baher mohammed are accused of colluding with the muslim brotherhood.

charges they deny. their colleague peter greste was depeterred in deports after 400 days in prison. >> after more than a year in jail peter greste was deported from egypt. but he's not technically free. he's still on trial. >> sitting here in sydney do you feel like a free man? >> look, i know it sounds probably ridiculous to be sitting in this glorious sydney sunshine pretty much able to go and do whatever i want to, but the fact is i don't feel like a free man. we're still caught up in this judicial process. we're still in trial. i'm on trial along with my colleagues. we still have a campaign to fight and a legal battle to fight so no, i don't feel free.

>> remember, there was no more evidence that the prosecutor was able to present in this trial that wasn't in the first. so there is it is quite clear that we were not involved in any of the things that the prosecutor was accused of. we have no connection with the muslim brotherhood beyond normal journalists. we did not broadcast false news. as long as the court follows the evidence we can only come to one verdict, and that is acquittals for all. obviously for me the original sentence would be inconvenience

for me, but i won't go to prison because i'm here. but it does effect mohamed fahmy, baher mohammed, and that concerns me. >> we hope if we get a guilty verdict the most they may end up with sentences for time served. that would mean that they would be able to walk free immediately. for me it would an little bit more difficult. it would mean that i would have to be under the same restrictions as all the other journalist who is were convicted, that means i can't go anywhere with an egypt extradition agreement. >> the killing of celcil.

significant increase in the number of victims as boko haram fighters target victims in attacks. the social economic costs of the attacks continue to pile up. the father of seven was injured just as he finished work. he's afraid of going back to work or going near a crowd. >> there is too much. you are a target at home. there are threats everywhere, but you have a family to feed. >> many traders and businesses have been destroyed by these attacks. in family itch above relinquished. the priority now is to avoid being hit.
