a nuclear bomb. zimbabwe rolls out a new election system for next year's poll but some worry it could lead to voter for. the hosts for the twenty twenty four and twenty twenty eight summer olympics are officially confirm. at least twenty people have been killed in a fire in boarding school most of them were teenagers the police say it started on the top floor dormitory of the school on the outskirts of kuala lumpur catch a lopez a billion as the story. it took more than an hour for firefighters to put out the flames that the. school in kuala lumpur by then many people mainly teenage boys had lost their lives in by gangs that do such as the scene we can see from a certain angle their hands waving out for help we had no choice but to ask them to

jump out and we tried to catch them we did try to enter the house but the fire was too hot until certain point there was a blackout when that happened things started falling apart we withdrew after that low. the fire started near the dormitory on the top floor first thing in the morning it quickly ripped through the entire building. by one of the interior of the building is one hundred percent destroyed the mattresses books and all other things in the very damaged but the cause of the fire is still unclear we're still investigating it would have been difficult for the boys to escape as the rooms had barred windows and the fire blocked the only exit i could think of a escape through the window we dismantled the window grill opened the window and climbed down on a pipe we force a window grille open at that time we couldn't think much of a fire department representative says their bodies were found on top of one another suggesting there was a stampede to try and get out a community religious leader led prayers for the students he described the boys as

cheerful when they held religious events in the community a happy group many of whom have now lost their lives under tragic circumstances. zero well the city's fire chief is called keratin drama he said to us that it does appear the building regulations were not followed at the school. this initial investigation done by all. of us not issued by a local government and also by departments across investigation carried out some. men when the show drawing that i mean that. approval. because that evolution. that that that by our departments to make sure that at least they are. in this school and because of the student cannot get out on the field because

the only exit been blocking the fire and spread very fast and some people consider the cost of smoke inhalation usually the proving. ground floor second second floor of the building itself and of course based on any field common that you've been by i would have one one it's very clear that if i said this. to you no business just want to. number of bed. i think end up with the said to become. varia one shouldn't do it at the exit looking at that now but the bad. side of the rule if they have no party there now but that the six be just nice but because that is what did to me if. the food in that's a little bit i mean almost sixty percent of the room and what it was to be used but

not. all that. i'm pleased to see these things happen and it's why is it that we all if the mind operate that up the social path if. you have a competition it must comply competently did you comment on i thought. why is it if i'm asked what the end of the the iraqi parliament has voted to remove the governor of kirkuk now the vote comes after a council meeting to discuss plans to hold the referendum on kurdish independence the government is opposed to the referendum earlier this week the parliament authorized the prime minister mr party to quotes take all measures to preserve national unity imran khan joins us on the telephone from bill in iraq how significant is this. well it's very significant as you state the body has been

given the mandate to try and stop this referendum going ahead has already had a vote in parliament referendum is actually a leak of this kurdish independence referendum is actually real and this is another move to try and put pressure on the. karim is as you say the governor of cookies but a very vocal supporter. independent and this was a direct call from the heart or other body of iraqi prime minister saying that this man should be removed from office so we've had some reaction. before the vote actually took place from a political party saying that the signatures needed to remove him from office. in office despite what the iraqis think this vote will go ahead so it remains to be seen how the government. reacted to all of this but it seems that the kurds are already defined they say that they want to go ahead. the president of the kurdish region the food bazaar he actually went to visit him go back to very publicly.

go anywhere the government could go anywhere as a result and he says he operates according to the. kirkuk though just to be clear on that point it is not what the kurds would like to see turning into to stop them so does this make mr body feel the need to stamp his authority a vote that he does not want to see taking place. absolutely was going on here is lined with geography it's technically it is iraqi territory however the kurds claim it baghdad says no it's not it's part of federal iraq or forty it's long been a bone of contention. the kurds want the referendum to take place within itself as part of kurdish territory that's angered arab and. m.p.'s from that region who refuse to take part in the vote so far they say it's not of kurdish territory

social potential territory so it cannot be part of this vote because they know it's out territory we control if we want to be part of any for a future kurdistan him around thanks very much representatives of the syrian government and opposition groups are meeting in kazakhstan for the sixth round of talks to end the civil war the discussions in astana brokered by the russians the turks and the iranians child what is there for us. well it hasn't gone particularly well so far the five rounds of talks we saw last time the members of the opposition actually walked out at one stage as airstrikes or so they said airstrikes continued against their full seize the fact of the matter is though that a lot has changed on the ground in the last year or so in syria pro-government forces have made great gains with the help of their russian allies since russia got involved in two thousand and fifteen we saw government forces retake control of all

of eastern aleppo they've also been these huge gains against isis forces in and around dear azula there is a general will to try and get some sort of last thing ceasefire in these deescalation zones sorted out mapped out. in the next two days and of course it's very much a complementary effort to ongoing attempts by the u.n. the u.n. brokered talks in geneva looking at a wider political future in syria it seems as if there is a lot of determination here but there are a lot of very complicated issues to sort out on the ground north korea has threatened to use a nuclear weapon against japan after the u.n. impose more sanctions against pyongyang the state run korean central news agency said this japan is no longer needed to exist near us it went on to say before islands of the japanese archipelago should be sunken into the scene by the nuclear bomb the japanese cabinet secretary yoshi he sugar has condemned that threat from

north korea saying no. this announcement is extremely provocative and outrageous and raises the tension in the region and it is an acceptable creating some following developments from tokyo. certainly this threat was considered and expected by the japanese because of the support that this country is giving to its alliance partners the united states over the recent strengthening of the u.n. sanctions against north korea but japan is taking this threat very seriously given the recent hydrogen bomb test that took place two weeks ago a bomb that was ten times stronger than the one dropped by the united states on hiroshima and the missile that was launched across the north of japan so it is a very serious threat the defense systems here have been strengthened or will be strengthened we've been told certainly that japan is hoping the united states in

that regard by shipping fuel out to these ages destroyers these anti missile destroyers that are in the sea of japan these are part of a range of defense mechanisms that been set up by the alliance which include the fed missile system in south korea and in and we have the patriot battery here in japan and of course the a.g.s. ships contain interceptors which are capable of locking on and taking out any missiles as they launched into space so certainly japan is in readiness the united states says that the defense system here is strong enough to contain any missile threat that should come from north korea the u.s. secretary of state rex tillerson is in london for talks with the prime minister to resume a he'll also hold a meeting with the foreign secretary of the u.k. boris johnson they are expected to discuss the tensions on the korean peninsula to listen to do all that we can with the unique situation facing those refugees unlike rwandans unlike the people is this they are stateless they do not have passports or

identity cards saying they are from me and they are from bangladesh the un says the scale of the emergency does require a swift response. hume any theater in assistance in bangladesh has traditionally been quite complex that the government has. preferred to certain choices in terms of which agencies are presence on the ground and so forth this was before this big emergency i think that now that the emergency requires a very urgent response these presents would be scaled up very quickly we've had already an airlift of goods from the emirates other organizations are also sending goods and i think that we're going to see we're going to see a scale up of the emergency very quickly the u.s. president donald trump has denied reports of a deal to protect undocumented young migrants they're known as dreamers earlier the

democrats announced an agreement had been reached which would have protected the nearly eight hundred thousand people they have benefited from the former president barack obama's program he brought it in but earlier this month mr trump announced he would end it and he gave congress six months to come up with its replacement still to come here on al-jazeera. name in. iraq. activists turn to social media and to protest against a four day arms fire in london. and will meet them is in the spanish region of catalonia who are standing their ground despite threats of arrest.
