even so far in this magnificent. a chronicle of the revolution and its aspirations through the prism of its architecture cuba's unfinished space at this time on al-jazeera we here to jerusalem bureau covered israeli palestinian affairs we cover the story with a lot of intimate knowledge we covered it with that we don't dip in and out of the story we have presence here all the time apart from being a cameraman it's also very important to be a journalist to know the story very well before going into the field covering the united nations and global diplomacy for al-jazeera english is pretty incredible this is where talks how many and what happens there matters. egypt val's fierce action after a bomb attack on a mosque in the sinai that's what kills at least two hundred thirty five people.

and i'm richelle carey this is al jazeera live from doha also coming up. we asked those who have primaries in the past three concert that they are going to turn to political censors who can is not and zimbabwe swears and it's first president and thirty seven years and he's promising sweeping changes. in argentina submarine is still missing and hopes for finding survivors are quickly fading. for decades a big ban from u.s. t.v. tobacco companies will be back on the airwaves but not by choice. at least two hundred thirty five people have been killed in what's being called the deadliest. attack in egypt's history gunmen bombed an open fire at

a mosque in the north sinai town of bear it is late the latest in a string of attacks by armed groups egypt is launching a military campaign in sinai president abdel fatah el-sisi has declared three days of mourning and pledged to were spawned with brutal force egypt is also securing its borders the planned reopening of the rougher crossing into gaza that has been delayed until further notice and reports. the bomb and gun attack happened during friday prayers at the other old a mosque in bearded aboud in egypt's northern sinai peninsula local sources say the attackers planted explosives and then opened fire on worshippers while the sermon was underway. looks like it was. outside of. not really clear this motive was i know it's my responsibility

yet but it's very possibly and i said they have targeted sudanese in the past in sinai. president i'm going to put that has sisi convened an emergency meeting of security officials has that had this these tragic event act of terrorism will make us more robust more a strong of a bottle against terrorism we cannot be intimidated i will result cannot be dented we would remain more united hello we need to vent the army would take revenge and they will restore order and security with an iron fist in the following day. egyptian forces have for years battled armed groups in the country's rugged and remote sinai peninsula attacks on security forces have been frequent like this car bomb explosion the targeted a police station in a lot in two thousand and fifteen so really this i know there's been a lot of. fighting between isis and security forces there for years now.

and so. a lot of. area as shock sets in and an investigation begins the egyptian government has declared three days of mourning. and as either a marshal or as the arab with the arab center for research and policy studies here in tel highs as isis and fluence has changed the nature of attacks in the sinai. in two thousand and fourteen something very unique to egypt happened it was the first or local organization local egyptian organization declared its legality to an international organization in that case i s and that was the birth of sinai province in november twenty fourth team and it was since then it was literally the most powerful state actor in egypt's modern history. capable of operating in a conventional special forces like way capable of using light artillery capable of using guided missiles guided antitank and aircraft missiles. and

fighting party in a conventional way partly in a guerrilla warfare way but also using a long campaign of urban terrorism so that you know the tribal code here was violated first time attack almost the first time attack on. usually the indiscriminate attacks it's either targeting cops or targeting soldiers and officers from the army or the police or that sometimes targeting israel but the other attacks are very very discriminatory especially when it comes to informants so if there's somebody was accused to be an informant they target him they try to avoid his family or his friends or the people around him the same thing applies with some of the tribal tribes that. militia tribesmen who fight along the army they target the specific groups of tribesmen but they don't attack the whole tribe so this was this is new in terms of its lethality and in terms of the

indiscriminately targeting a large section of the society. after thirty seven years and bob boy has a new leader emerson and has been sworn in he was sworn in on friday and harare has promised to create jobs and compensate why farmers whose lands were seized he also paid his respects to robert mugabe who was forced to step down and miller reports. a new and upholding democracy is now in this and one on god was describes his ascent to power even if it took military intervention to end drought but mugabe's presidency tens of thousands of zimbabweans waited for was to watch magog was swearing into office an inauguration meant to cement the veneer of a politically driven solution from within the ruling zanu p.f. party once again not to be processed. we can do in the present and future to give our nation a different positive. when

a guard was promised to implement economic reforms that would observe the lives of millions of zimbabweans left jobless in a battered economy and work toward stimulating local industries as well as compensate the white farmers for the land they lost under previous policies has also vowed to fight corruption tall order given the corruption allegations faced by many members of his ruling party often from politicians we have learned that there is a gulf between what they say and what they actually do the same government that is coming from from the same party that elites know from his people two million jobs in twenty thirty and those rates of need to be created when a god why enjoys from military backing from the same army that in two thousand and eight intervened in elections lost by mcabee ensuring he stayed in power one of the major things that we want to give now is that we are faced with an election and what happens if this new president loses that election the military be able to hold

their losses of taking the direction say we respect the will of the people when gaga has promised free and fair elections next year he still has u.s. sanctions hanging over his head from his time as serving the mugabe regime for what it called axe to undermine democracy but when i got worse is now is the time to reengage with the west for people here president money on guard was certainly made all the right noises talking directly about the needs of everyday zimbabweans he's moved away from traditional political issues instead addressing people's concerns about his presidency but the worry is that zimbabweans could one day face a crisis of expectation with apparently well intentioned economic and political plans unlikely to work overnight from either miller al-jazeera harare zimbabwe or. the search for a missing arjen time submarine continues even though there is almost no hope that the forty four crew members are alive westerners are looking into evidence of a possible explosion near its last known location and the family members are angry

at the navy's handling of the incident and reports in the naval base in the city of marjah. the hope the prayers the expectation expressed here at the model plots a naval base the home of the missing submarine the air race so one turned to anger and despair the families of the forty four crew members were told the face of their loved ones. there are still people with hope but i think that's it is time to look for the body they don't want to say it's which is why we feel empty but there's nothing more to do but pray and lay them to rest. he loved his job was totally dedicated this was his last voyage i'm devastated they want to know why news of the explosion on board shortly after the submarine lost contact on the van with the fifteen took so long to be revealed when they kept in the dark.

president has promised a full inquiry and to answer the families and the rest of argentina. i'm here to guarantee that we will continue the search especially now that we can count on the help of the international community and the technology that they have available we hope to find a submarine in the next few days. the navy high command is likely to be removed despite the frustration and sadness as it did terminations to keep searching. you know remember until we have firm evidence of where the submarine is we cannot reach any conclusions believe nothing to chance there's a strong force reaching the remaining uncovered area that operation involves ships aircraft and undersea rescue equipment from more than ten countries often in severe weather conditions while their families more in argentina result in what when wrong

who is responsible and what should happen now but with the sun qualm possibly several hundred meters of the bottom of the south atlantic ocean those questions may never be satisfactorily answered and argentina must assess his relationship with his navy as it comes to terms with one of its worst tragedies in recent years that i'm sure there are two sierra madre. ministration has decided to keep the palestinian diplomatic authors in washington d.c. open week ago and it said the office would be shut because palestinian leaders call for the international criminal court to prosecute israel over illegal jewish settlements the us said that statement was a breach of its laws in response the p.l.o. threatened to cut off communication with washington functions of the office will be limited for ninety days canada's prime minister justin trudeau has apologized to people from indigenous communities who were forcibly separated from their families around twenty thousand children were taken from their home aside from the one nine

a political deadlock on forming a new coalition government social democrats leader martin shells has rolled out taking part of another government headed by chancellor angela merkel it pretty insisted his party should go into opposition that he now says party members will get a vote on any coalition deal dominic cain has the latest from berlin. for the past two months germany's social democrats have been licking their wounds after the worst electoral performance in modern german democratic history the watchword has been opposition leader martin shields who presided over that worst ever defeat but said opposition was what a spade a needs. to find new policies and to reconnect with the electorate but the collapse of the so-called jamaica coalition talks has refocused people's attention as payday and a chorus of voices a growing chorus of voices have said to mr schultz well perhaps now is the time to

rethink that refusal to contemplate coalition with angela merkel and he seems to have listened. i was spent talking with discussed openly the contribution the s.p.d. can make a coalition whatever form it may take. the irony of the situation is that the grand coalition mr schultz has been so resistant to is still governing germany in a cancer capacity the question for him the question for. is can they find a form of agreement but can take germany forward because many leaders in europe worry about the vacuum of leadership that a continued protracted lack of coalition talks might bring and of course the doomsday scenario at the back of everyone's minds is if they can't find agreement well there can't really be a general election until next april and so everyone is very keen to avoid that particular dilemma. or assess tightening security ahead of sunday's presidential

just over twenty percent in the last year the violence observatory responsible for monitoring violent deaths says there's a number of reasons why among them the dismantling of drug cartels and increasing the. security budget and reform of the police force the government says one of the reasons there's been a full in the number of violent deaths is because of army and police patrols like this one in some of the most dangerous neighborhoods in the country. but here on the outskirts of some of the most dangerous city in the country he says she lives in fear and doesn't believe the government's claims of success. is always kidnappings violent killings it's difficult for us to talk about this there are repercussions of violence hasn't reduced although the numbers are down critics say policing remains sporadic and people still live in fear that. it's costly to keep

troops permanently the areas are very large and many are still controlled by criminals. and the targeted killings continue in recent days the bodies of three political activists were found but government supporters say improvement needs to be measured over the long term. the murder rate is still six times larger than the world average the situation is still critical with must be sustainable to show the population but this is the way to repress crime. for now a signal is being sent to the gangs that change is happening in and that children have a right to play in peace but. it is black friday in the united states the day after thanksgiving and traditionally the biggest shopping day of the year millions of acres shoppers are attempting to get all the bargains crowds at the shops appear to have been down in recent years retailers say the main shopping action is pretty much on line now but the bargains

trapping them in endless leases according to attorneys representing the drivers if we have twenty different companies we go there are now. stepping toward us. for banner the lease is where he sends things weren't right when i got down to start asking questions about how much longer i have to pay the trucks are asked when everything went bad washy get behind us like you're working for free and your feeling is that they intentionally withheld work for you but what you have is definitely they definitely did it because. you know i would want to hear time about. truckers seeking lost wages go to the office of california labor commissioner julie sue. who has brought more than forty six million dollars in judgments against port trucking companies but she says that enforcement is difficult and sometimes impossible. industries which is where the chronic under

capitalization and chronic wage theft we often see that when workers come forward and they follow wage claim and they win their wage claim that the employer simply close down go out of business change their name start. under a new name and that makes it much harder for us to actually get the money that his own. bomber is one of the lucky ones. he got out and he managed to buy his own truck. he says the experience taught him a terrible lesson they don't care about us as people you know we we are humans we were just somebody to get the job done. affordable imports make it possible for americans to buy almost anything about it want to buy gas but truckers are paying a heavy price for moving those goods for the rest of us jake aboard al jazeera long beach california for forty six year smoking advertisements have been banned from

the airwaves in the u.s. that's about to change though it's not the choice of big tobacco the ads or court order to warn of the dangers of smoking sharper tonsil reports. smoking is highly addictive these messages will air in primetime for one year on major u.s. television networks along with adverts in fifty newspapers. radio and t.v. ads promoting cigarettes were banned in one nine hundred seventy but the new adverts should have added years ago they were ordered in two thousand and six after a big tobacco was found to have lied misrepresented and deceived the american public about the effects of smoking by a federal judge they brought appeal after appeal after appeal. contesting every issue they could think of to try to delay the time when they would actually have to be forced to tell the truth to the american people campaign as a skeptical as to the difference these ads will make partly because the media has changed so much over the last decade most us smokers begin as teenagers but now

less than five percent of network t.v. viewers are under twenty five also the trumpet ministration is filled with those who once worked for or received large sums from big tobacco infamously vice president mike penn's once wrote an editorial that accepted the dangers of smoking yet asserted time for a quick reality check despite the hysteria from the political class and the media smoking doesn't kill so this is a general no francisco one successfully argued in court against printing the telephone number for a service to help smokers quit on cigarette packets on behalf of tobacco company r.j. reynolds president trumps nominee to oversee chemical safety at the environmental protection agency took money from big tobacco to promote research that downplayed the effects of secondhand smoke we cannot afford to have to back up policy being being made by the lawyers for the tobacco industry. the proportion of u.s.

adults who smoke is now fifteen percent it was forty two percent in the sixty's however due to population growth that still represents thirty six and a half million people in addition in low income areas the proportion of smokers can reach thirty seven percent cigarette taxes remain low in many states political donations from big tobacco plentiful which helps explain why big tobacco is still views the u.s. as a growth market the world's largest tobacco profit pool outside of china in the words of one cigarette executive shihab rattansi al-jazeera at the meyer says the president av tobacco free kits he says the ads are a step in the right direction but tobacco companies have not changed their behavior they contain information that many people don't know including the fact that tobacco companies have design and continued design their cigarette conscious that with enough nicotine to make them it addictive they'll have their own their full effect only if others amplify them that's why stories like the one you're running

are so important what's critically important for the everybody to understand is that while this decision was first made eleven years ago the tobacco companies haven't changed their behavior and the need to continue to warn the public about the out the facts of smoking is no less today than it was ten years ago which is critically important for everybody understand this these ads are a sharp reminder that the tobacco companies haven't changed their wrongful behavior that's why they continue to fight these verdicts meant even told now the last appeal shockingly was just over whether or not the ads would begin with the phrase here's the truth the tobacco industry still doesn't want the public to know the truth. i'm richelle carey these are the headlines on al-jazeera egypt's military has
