♪ this is al jazeera. hello. you are watching the al jazeera newshour live from london. coming up in the next 60 minutes. celebrations in ankara as results show turkey's ruling akp party has regained its majority. more refugees make the perlus journey to agrees as at least 11 asylum seekers drown. >> russia mourns those who died when their plane crashed in

egypt. aviation officials say it broke up in the air. how machines are threatening the jobs of white collar workers in the united states. >> we will have all of the day's sport including england make a strong start to the third test against pakistan as they fight to level the series. turkey's ruling akp party has reclaimed majority after unexpectedly winning an outright election victory. with more than 90% counted, it's won 316 seats with 49.48% of the vote. it needed 276 to governor by itself. turkey's main opposition party secured 25% of the vote.

this translates into 133 seats. you have the nationalist mhp party which had 11.97% of support. >> comes in at 42 seats in the parliament. then, of course, the pro-kurdish htp party claimed 10.35% of the preliminary poll. it's imports to note if it drops below the ten percent threshold. if below that, no parliament seats at all. this is the scene at akp party headquarters. supporters were learning of the results thas they came in. it was a rerun defendant party lost its one party mandate due to a strong showing by the pro-kurdish hdp.

a small group of protest orders began throwing stones in southeast urn turkey. these pictures a little earlier. fired tear gas to clear the area. there has been increasing tension between the states and rebels from the kurdistan workers' party we will hear from momar asala. jamal is also outside akp party headquarters in arrangeara. this date from bernard smith. wilt keep a close eye on if they get over the 10 percent threshold. no one expected them to do it in june. they did, 13% of the vote. it gave them 18 mps in parliament. they have taken a bit of a hit, it looks like this second time around. the polls suggested they might

have had similar results. we are looking at a 10.4% share of the vote for the htp. it is really important. if they manage to hang on to that, then at least they maintain representation in parliament. they will have their neat numbers down to about 57 against the 80 that they had in june. but they dropped below 10 percent. anything just below 10 percent and they don't get one mp in parliament. to give you an idea of what that means, 4,300,000 people. more than that so far have voted for the hdp. if the hdp doesn't get into parliament, that means no parliamentae representation for more than 4 million people. that's why there is an extraordinarily high threshold in turkey, for getting parliament army representation is so controversial. it would cause, i think, considerable problems in this part of the country if the hdp didn't manage to get into parliament. >> jamal joins us live from akp

party headquarters in arrangean describe for us the mood there. >> it's a bit of an understatement. the people here are surprised as much as they are overjoyed because they never expected this result, this much of a victory for their party. just about an hour ago, there were only a few dozens people. now, they are in the hundreds if not several thousand who have gathered here the speakers are pro-akp party. some raps and other music, you can see. the flags haven't stopped waving for quite awhile despite cold weather. waiting for prime minister to come here. we understand he is just about where he was and he will be

coming to the capitol to address the crowd here it's interesting. the last time i was here covering these elections around five months ago when the akp party supporters were also here but this time negativinegativet it was a new experience for them using the parliamentary majority that game them ability to form a single party government. now, they are on the ascendance. they appear to be drawn by this victory to continue in what was a 13-year spell ruling the country in all forms in terms of the executive powers belonging to the president, erdoan. the majority p whether the local councils of governors belonging to the akp party, once again

here thank you, jamal live in the turkish capital where we could see the prime minister getting ready to address supporters right there at party headquarters getting ready for his victory speech as these results show that the akp party have an outright victory in this election. they have won enough seats to be able to govern alone. in istanbul, omar, what can you tell us about reaction there to these results to the prospect that now looks confirmed of an act party victory. >> an absolutely victory. i think it took everyone by

surprise the senior member of the republican people's party, the main opposition party here in turkey. how surprised were you by the results? >> i am not surprised. those are not the official amount of the polls. i have some suspicions about the things, so we don't know. we don't have the special computing technology but interestingly, we will learn all of the things in an hour. this is the shocking part why is it shocking? >> in one hour, we have learned a lot of things. more than half of the polls were open and announced interestingly one of the party members wrote to it.

so she announced 1 hour ago, almost 35 persons votes were registered supreme electoral counsel in turkey the initially results are quiet similar to the results we have. >> not similar. >> or the official results? >> we had two and a half hours they learned something about officially but now it's a little bit fitting. >> too early to celebrate for the akp party, you mean? >> people besides and then we should say something about it. >> okay. so let's say the results -- >> to talk about something let me ask you this question if the results, the current results are confirmed what would be the reaction from this? >> we have to wait today tonight

or tomorrow's morning, our leaders will announce something. we shall wait. something about it let me ask you another question. critics of the opposition say you are divided and week and that's why you were not able to defeat we have to be a little bit silent. you know that. we were in a bad period. there was some bombing in akara. people were silent. so it was hard and contro versal period after june. it's a little bit risky period

because of this thank you very much. a 7ier member of the republican people's party here in istanbul. now, the main opposition is always try to blame the akp party for consolidating the group on power. they say they have made now it's time perhaps for them to change their policies and try to accept the new reality did and also within the turkish opposition, maybe there is time to think of new strategies and perhaps move on with the new realities after this election. back to you in london. >> omar thank you very much. live for us there in istanbul in turkey we can see people on the streets in celebration.

what a contrast perhaps compared to what we were just hearing there from omar. he was speaking to a member of the opposition in turkey. she was expressing some skepticism over this result. it shows an outright election victory. they perhaps weren't expecting such a strong showing in this election. nevertheless, this is what we appeared to have here a sense of skepticism from the opposition about this vote, that there may have been irregularities, questioning, whether it may have been free and fair in how it was conducted. perhaps those calls will grow louder. definitely a contrast when you think about that compared to scenes of celebration there in conia and the same in ankara as well. we will continue to bring you reaction to this election in turkey, the second general election in 5 months.

refugees make a paerlus journey? you have so many volunteers. they are quite upset. they say groups like the spanish lifeguards that have been doing so many of the rescue operations the past few days, they are being very critical of the european human rights watch and others being critical of the european union and the government saying there are not enough government officials here or presence from the u.n. top effectively handle this crisis. >> being said, though, governments have said they are trying to do more. u.n. hcr saying that they are providing as many as thing. that's not having an impact on this crisis. there are thousands trying to cross every day and more

drownings. that is creating a very worrying situation here because as i mentioned before, the weather keeps getting worse. no matter if you have aide workers here, if people are going to try to cross in choppy wautsdz and cold waters, the fear is there will be more drownings, deaths mohammed jam gina in the greek island of lesbos. hundreds of people gathered in saint petersburg central square to remember the victims of the plane crash in egypt. russia is obvioserve observing mourning. the plane crashed after takeoff from the resort town bound for saint petersburg. examiners will to begin examining the two black boxes. the airliner broke up in the air, they say. several have suspended flights over the area until the cause of

if you look at the russian social media sites, people are exchanging condolences, pictures those who perished cards. people are flocking in saint petersburg to the airport in moscow as well people across the former soviet union are bringing flowers it's been a dark day for russian? there is an outpouring of grief and emotion as you say. this is far from being an isolated incidents. we don't know the cause of this plane crash winch russia had problems in the past with mechanical breakdowns. do you think there will be calls for the government to do more when it comes to safety and maintenance of its aircraft? will calls for reform grow louder? >> tlven callsknowledged some. of of the law makes makers have called again.

what happened after the break-up of the soviet union, the largest worlds airline broke up into much smaller airlines. some of them are international airlines there were dozens and dozens of smaller airlines, say, three, five aircraft online this one in particular had under 10. all are quite aging already. the calls are for bigger airlines, newer aircraft more attention to safety. >> why hasn't that attention to safety? why hasn't the government done more to address that?

they do because of the market economy, this company in in particular t back in 1993 russian and egyptian officials have denied the involvement of isil in this plane crash. experts have said pretty much the same thing, it's unlikelihood they would have the weaponry to target an aircraft will there it be implications it could have for russian people at home and abroad? >> basically, this theory, although we heard some claims from the isil-affiliated groups

claiming this. appropriately they wouldn't. why wouldn't they? they it was a mistake by the pilot. most believe in a technical fault as far as the acts of sabotage is concerned. >> perhaps heightening risk for people? regardless of this crash too early to say why because for example a popular holiday destination. the russian planes flying in. sharmal sheik. it's a popular destination. thousands, 40,000 people right now, russians, and even at the height of, you know, egyptian troubles during the arab spring, russians continue unlike others. continues to flock.

dark day for somalia. >> i was at the scene of the explosion busy taking orders when a car detonated beside me. i fell on the ground and saw part of my body bleeding. i was with another journalist killed in the attack. >> somali soldiers were called in to recapture the hotel. al shabaab operates in somalia and neighboring countries has claimed responsibility. it's lear if you look back at events in somalia over the last 6th months al shabaab still has the capability to organize attacks in the capitol. it's unfortunate that these terrorist attacks still occur spore ascally. the government forces are clearly in the offensive and had the momentum. >> in april, fighters killed 147 people in antac on garisa university college in kenya and

in september, 2013, al shabaab fighters stormed the westgate shopping mall in niarobi killing 67 people. somalia has been devastated by decades of civil unrest. four years ago, somalia's government pushed al shabaab out of major cities including mogadishu with the help of african union soldiers. attacks like this show that somalia's government and its supporters still have much more work to do. having tory i can't gatenby, al jazeera. >> now pope francis has hinted his upcoming visit to the central african republic may be cancelled if the conflict there worsens. speaking of thousands, the pope appealed to an ends to the cycle of violence between christians and muslims. he told the crowd he hopes to be able to make it to the country for a scheduled visit at the end of the month. violence erupted in early 20 children when rebels briefly seized power in the majority muttslim country. more to come for you on the

but that's not going to stop voters here from trying to put their representative in power even if that power is limited. florence looie, al jazeera, yangon. now, our south korea, china and japan have held their first trilateral talks in more than three years. the leader pledged to boost cooperation and repair relations which have been marred from unresolved issues from the second world war. from the south korea ian capitol seoul. >> japan's prime minister stepping on to the tarmac must have been akin to sitting foot on hostile territory. south korea's government is repeatedly admonished him, the south korea ian president has refused to meet him. his host seems to have decided that resuming these annual talks, stalled for more than three years, is now necessary. >> i hope the summit will serve as a catalyst for the strength
