after the killing of the ousted president ali abdullah saleh. you're watching up there i'm so ho robin a coming up in the next thirty minutes the u.s. supreme court allows donald trump's travel ban on six mostly was the nation's to come into force despite ongoing legal challenges in lower courts also the british prime minister to resign may is expected to brief her cabinet on what next for brakes it has up plans for an agreement with the e.u. a blocks. on the crisis of marina land pollution worldwide brings politicians and divided mentalistic kenya for a page or un conference. welcome to the program millions of yemenis in the middle east poorest country ravaged by civil war. or are facing more political uncertainty

a day after the ousted president was killed by hootie rebels there are calls for revenge from alley adela sellers supporters while the u.n. and the u.s. are urging the current political talks to end the war in the capital sanaa there are reports of more fighting on the streets between rival factions overnight airstrikes by the saudi led coalition targeted the republican palace for the first time since the beginning of the war you have an internationally recognized president of the rebel months who had been has ordered his troops to advance the gates forces the war which began in twenty fifteen has killed more than ten thousand people seven million yemenis are on the brink of salmon while one million more are affected by cholera the u.n. has asked for a six humanitarian pause in fighting to allow trap civilians to leave their homes in the us there has the latest. a sudden end for one of yemen's most powerful men

who the rebels say they killed ousted president aliyev delish sala during an attack on his convoy. his remains were packed on the back of a pickup truck in a televised statement the leader of the said salo was involved in a conspiracy with the saudi led coalition to take over well. what are the reasons behind this transfer to the other side suddenly you talk to the aggressors against your own people had been an alliance with the iranian backed for more than two years together they controlled the capital sanaa and fought against the saudi led coalition which supports the internationally recognized government led by months or hadi but this partnership with the collapse last week sparking major confrontations between salis forces. and the rebels after days of running street battles announced he was ready for dialogue with the saudi led coalition if it ended its blockade of yemen sports and airports and allowed for more humanitarian

aid yemen is already a failed state it's a state where there is no central government the institutions of most of the structures of failed the economy has failed the war has further destructive it destroyed the entire country so i think in the in the short run we. saw and the who pushed out how these government in january two thousand and fifteen and set up their own administration prompting the saudi led campaign against them since then the country has been split between the who the rebels in the north ministration in the south and forces loyal to solid inviting began among the former allies it's part fears of a new front in the war a war which has already killed nearly ten thousand people pushed yemen to the brink of mass starvation and triggered what the united nations has called the world's worst humanitarian crisis and there have been multiple investigations about the atrocities being committed in all parties. they're guilty whether it's the whole thing is whether it's the saudi led coalition and you know the u.k. and the u.s.

are largely complicit in this war as well through the billions and billions of dollars worth of arms sales to to the saudis. as yemen's president saleh ruled for more than three decades until he was forced to resign during the arab spring uprising but he was able to remain in the country and continue to wield enormous power behind the scenes it's not yet clear what his death will mean for the fighting on the ground or yemen's future. al-jazeera well fighting us collated in recent hours who the forces of blocking streets with tanks humanitarian operations including flights to and from the capital have been suspended and as we mentioned the u.n. is calling for a polls in the fighting to help civilians it is paramount that civilians are protected that the wounded or forded say facts as to medical care and that all sides facilitate lifesaving humanitarian access we remind all parties.

we remind all parties to the conflict that deliberate attacks against civilians and against civilian and medical infrastructure or clear violations of international humanitarian law may constitute war crimes well give us mari is the editor of the yemen post and joins me from yemen's capital sanaa a very confusing picture. about what's happening in the on the ground in and around your capital. it is really so well it's very complicated right now because both sides are gathering their forces and their allies in the next hour or so you will see the the funeral for ex-president to be held today two hours later the who these will celebrate in the same area the that the funeral will take place and celebrate their victory against saddam so it's still very tense on our right now but the who these are unclear control of the capital the checkpoints are spread everywhere it's very quiet the capital but again it's very tense sides are still

mourning. and this could be just a short three day mourning period for the forces and they could just break out any time but right now this morning while the british are celebrating in the same place same day and this might cause more tension and more problems as the day goes on ok tell us about the sort of the military build up and what's your sources telling you about. that on the streets at the moment. very very strict security checkpoints in the past there were checkpoints every four to five hundred meters by now there every two hundred meters every checkpoint forces now there's only seven or eight every checkpoint so they're very very. security alert especially. the march happens later today so there's tanks everywhere in the streets there's. checkpoints with. them

if that's the case just tell us a little bit about how the emergency services are managing to cope with those that were injured overnight there were reports of aerial bombardment in and around the capital what do you know about that. the problem is that until last night most of the hospitals were closed in sanaa because of the clashes in the streets so those who were injured had a very hard time trying to get medical attention because they were closed due to the classes that were happening this morning they were able to get attention in hospitals because of the quiet night. there was no street clashes so. seven eight hours of being late now getting back attention has caused more death tolls among civilians at least our twenty homes were destroyed or at least or damaged by the airstrikes last night the least night civilians killed many of the injured are in critical condition because of late treatment in hospitals right we'll see what happens in the coming hours so the man who came out must marry the inside off thank

you. one thing in the region you will be high on the agenda the gulf regional summit that's expected to be getting kuwait in the coming hours and it comes exactly six months after three of the g.c.c. member states cut diplomatic and trade ties with qatar plunging the region into its worst crisis in decades let's go straight over to cheryl in kuwait city is following events while the meeting in kuwait city was expected to be overshadowed by events in yemen and the death of the ousted president i mean what's the reaction been there over night. well so officially there have been no statements made by any of the delegates here it is important to note that each of the six member states are only represented by their foreign ministers except that is the united arab emirates somebody in with decided to send either the assistant foreign minister says you or he's concerned or deputy in terms of battling therefore it could be that maybe they're reserving statements with regards to what's happened to

our left on the part of the ongoing unfolding developments in yemen told their leaders arrive and that's expected in the next few hours or it could very well be that they have not been able to discuss this yet in a way in which they can come up with some sort of unified statement it's important to note here as a whole that yemen is a divisive issue within the g.c.c. saudi arabia which has been extremely aggressive in its push to find a military solution to what it sees as the force the problem and the problem of the legitimate government being forced out by that who is at the forty's orchestrated you have the united arab emirates who have been allies of up on the far left for a very long time and have been using the war in yemen to increase their foothold on strategic positions within yemen particularly the ports and then you have countries like iran kuwait and to a very big extent qatar has been trying to push for some sort of a diplomatic solution to the crisis there so maybe that division means that you

will find some sort of a unified statement but we would expect maybe in the public sessions those are the ones that aren't behind closed doors the first of which will be at around thirteen fourteen thirty g.m.t. today that may be some sort of reference will be made to that because it is such a momentous. development indeed besides all this is the gulf crisis that we've been following for the last six months we are getting news of a bilateral military agreement between saudi arabia and the u.a.e. what more do you know about that. well so far very little detail there just has been that reform. it's that the saudi arabia and the united arab emirates have agreed to set up some sort of economic and military or security cooperation mechanism outside the g.c.c. and something like that would be seen as very antagonizing towards the g.c.c. as an organization an organization that has been under threats very much because of the actions of saudi arabia and the united arab emirates in terms of imposing

a blockade on qatar which has gone on for six months now for a decision or an announcement like that to happen at the summit or it is something that's will be seen as far as the kuwaitis are concerned is essentially quite frankly offensive to their efforts to try and unite the g.c.c. as a region but also will be seen amongst people in the region as a clear indication of them that maybe they don't have the intentions to solve this issue what we do understand is that the g.c.c. crisis will indeed be discussed amongst the needers there were reports that maybe as a part of a deal to ensure that the summit takes place that maybe they were going to discuss this as a separate track but now we're hearing reports that actually the leaders will discuss it but obviously the question is which leaders who is going to be represented we do know that of qatar is expected to arrive later on today we do understand that all men will send their highest official obviously that. is here and now the big question obviously is who will be coming from the city blockading

nations and whether they will indeed try and find a way to find a way out of this crisis or just further exacerbated like with these reports of an alleged separate organization or structure being agreed upon between of a b. and b. are we need to. continue with you in kuwait city later in the day thank you. let's take a closer look at the g.c.c. at the time political economic and security alliance of six countries in the arabia the arabian peninsula that was established in one nine hundred eighty one they include bahrain kuwait and ban cattle saudi arabia and the united arab emirates but in the past six months there's been a split in the reins with saudi arabia the u.a.e. and bahrain severing diplomatic and trade ties with cattle they've accused it of supporting terrorism and i'm a geisha that cattle are strongly denies kuwait has been acting as the mediator in the crisis and there have been serious disagreements of the past as well especially during the arab spring where saudi arabia the u.a.e. and qatar were seen as backing opposing sides especially in egypt and libya

maybe to north america now where the u.s. supreme court will allow the trumpet ministration to fully of course its controversial travel ban and the appeal against it is heard now the ruling extends the band to people from six muslim majority countries but as well and north korea are already subject to those restrictions while federal appeals judges are hearing arguments this week on the overall bans legality critics argue the measure violates the u.s. constitution still ahead here on al-jazeera widespread protests in honduras a week after presidential elections plus. the whole i'll be looking at some of the art on display here that's in the running for this year's turner prize .

by the skyline of asian harbor or off the coast of the italian riviera. hello again settle doubt about the spread of winter now it's fairly obvious just by watching the satellite picture the clouds tumbling down from the north that thick white line there is a cold front so behind all this it's cold air there is a bit of a relief though further west an area of high person sitting over what's relatively well sunny ground really is a temp is relatively speaking. cruising a little bit coming up eight in london ten images doesn't sound very good but there's no real wind there's a bit of sunshine but there's an obvious chilled to the breeze down through germany austria through the hungarian played right way down into western turkey even in athens of max and ten for thirty and that's with a cold breeze that doesn't change very much if anything the clouds thickens in germany in poland the baltic states you get rain if you're unlucky but a snow certainly overnight seems likely eleven degrees shows itself in london so comparable with madrid in fact spain and portugal enjoying the settled sunny

weather a moment which is the same as north western side of africa no morocco algeria tunisia but the still a bit of a breeze coming out of the central eastern med where you could see that coming couldn't you which will bring with it and possibly a few showers through libya and maybe egypt but most nights will be the temperatures with the breeze fifteen to seventeen degrees from tunis to benghazi. the weather sponsored by cattle and race. you are making great remarks there on line the main u.s. response to drug use and the drug trade over the last fifty years has been criminalized or if you join us. in the morning and say i want to cover the world in darkness is a dialogue could be worth leading to some of the confusion a lie about people saying they don't actually know what's going on join the global conversation at this time on al-jazeera.

welcome back you're watching i was there i'm so robin are a binder of our top stories the killing of yemen's ousted president. has plunged the country further into chaos there are reports of more fighting between. forces in the capital sanaa. yemen will also be high on the agenda the crucial golf summit expected to begin to kuwait and it comes exactly six months after three member states cut diplomatic and trade ties with qatar plunging the region into its worst crisis in decades the u.s. supreme court will allow the trumpet ministration to fully enforce its controversial travel ban until an appeal against it is heard the ruling extends to

people from six muslim majority countries restrictions already applied to north korea and subtile as well and officials. to europe now where the british prime minister to resign may is to hold a special cabinet meeting after the u.k. and the european union failed to reach an agreement to move on to the next stage of brecht's it talks but both sides say they're still confident about reaching a deal soon the main sticking point is the status of the border between northern ireland of the republic of ireland bobby philips reports. the day began full of hope when to resume a joint called your guy went into talks the brussels rumor mill had it that a brecht that deal was about to be announced. but when they emerged after several hours there was no deal just two leaders putting a brave face on a disappointing day. so i'm still confident that we can reach sufficient progress

sufficient progress before you can cultural to fifteen of this and this is the failure to do so. because of the very strong i'm very confident that we reach an agreement because of history on a couple of issues some difference is do remain which require further negotiation and consultation and those will continue but we will reconvene before the end of the week and i am also confident that we will conclude this positively. it's the border between the republic of ireland and northern ireland part of the u.k. which is emerged as the problem in recent weeks the republic wants guarantees it will remain open with no return to a so-called hard border but if the british really are intent on leaving the customs union and the single market as well as the e.u. itself then how will they meet irish demands tourism

a has been negotiating on two fronts on the one hand he's been hammering out a deal with him you twenty seven countries in brussels but she's also had to talk to politicians here in westminster she needs to be sure that a majority of m.p.'s will support any deal that she brings back. the prime minister called to ignore a small party from northern ireland who give her that majority in parliament these unionists are opposed to concessions on the irish border which they fear could undermine northern ireland's future in the united kingdom. we have been very clear in northern ireland must leave the european union on the same terms as the rest of the united kingdom and we will not accept any form of regulatory divergence which separates northern ireland economically or politically from the rest of the u.k. when. you and i know they still believe bracks it can be stopped that seems

unlikely but the faltering negotiations on the government's weak position mean that almost eighteen months after the u.k. voted to leave the e.u. not much about the future is clear bottom phillips al-jazeera westminster. thousands of people have protested in catalonia after surprise spain supreme court refused to grant bail to four procession its leaders accused of sedition now they rallied as campaigning got underway for the region's election on december the twenty first catalonia former vice president. says he was refused bail to stop him from running hundred sans a snap poll as an attempt to find a democratic way out of the crisis sparked by independence referendum. well catalonians former leader has opened a campaign rally through a video address from belgium where he awaits a decision later this month on his possible extradition to spain. urged voters to view the election as the second part of the referendum his government held two

months ago. if there is something they are afraid of if there is something that makes their legs cheek it is that on december twenty first we have the kind of people who want this country to go forward we should avoid altogether for catalonia we should not get a good result we should win. the un's head of political science is traveling to north korea jeffrey feltman is the first senior u.s. official to visit pyongyang in six years turn should the region escalated last week after the north korea said its latest ballistic missile test put the u.s. mainland within reach the u.s. of south korea how large scale joint drills on monday in response because we know of a customer from seoul. well this is the first visit of a senior u.n. official in about six years and when jeffrey feltman addressed the emergency meeting of the u.n. security council following north korea's latest i.c.b.m. launch he emphasized the need for

a political solution to the problem on the korean peninsula his visit follows a visit by a chinese and boy last month who visited pyongyang and met with senior officials though did not have a meeting with the leader kim jong il and russia also sent a team of lawmakers who according to russian media reported that pyongyang is not willing to disarm and that it does not want nuclear war but is prepared for it if threatened by the united states now we know that russia and china are both pushing for a freeze for freeze option that would see north korea agreeing to freeze its nuclear development in exchange for the united states and south agreed korea agreeing to stop military exercises that often anger north korea but those a joint exercises are continuing this week they kicked off joint air drills here on the korean peninsula just yesterday and north korea once again reacted extremely angrily saying that with these exercises the united states is pushing the korean

the wording as well so you know going to see any you know treaties or protocols in it instead it's broadly proposes for the establishment of a committee of experts drawn from different member states to basically look into gaps in waste management to look into regulations as well there's also another proposal to have sort of a monitoring mechanism to monitor what's out there what's being dumped as well the end game is to have a policy on a zero tolerance to plastics and eventually perhaps even banning plastics from the source there is no timeline for that but there is broadly a sense of realisation that this is a very very serious issue that needs to be addressed urgently i did speak to the united nations executive united nations environment program exactly director who called this plastic crisis an armageddon to be america's elite police force in

honduras has gone on strike it follows violence and protests in the country after sunday's disputed presidential vote. the police commissioner says members of the u.s. funded cobra police force are protesting against the government's crackdown on dissent there affairs of other security forces may follow suit. no sir not our people are sovereign and we hold them therefore we cannot confront and refuse their rights this is not because of political ideals or working demands it's simply our rejection of what's happening now the organization. of american states says it cannot be certain about the election results and hold do rest science and irregularities errors and systematic problems that the widespread protests over the delay in announcing a winner with opposition challenges solved on a stronger saying the results have been manipulated he was leading initially after the very vulnerable but the twenty six but the latest count has president a one on one to have him out this front by just over one percent. because he got.

the political crisis in honduras persists despite an announcement by the national elections commission that a special recount of over one thousand ballots in this hotly contested presidential election had concluded election observers from the european union announced early monday that that process is unfinished. just that but we want to guarantee that these meet the conditions of transparency. opposition leaders including presidential candidates are other than that continue to denounce what they call a fraudulent electoral process going as far as claiming victory in the presidential elections already now all of this traffic this heavy vehicle traffic that you see behind me these are people rushing to get home ahead of that strict six p.m. curfew that's still in a bag now the curfew has helped calm things down here in the city if they can and

the rest of the country but it also suspends a number of constitutional rights for honduran citizens and the concern in the back of every person's mind here is that violence could start up once again well this has turned a prize for contemporary british artists is being announced on tuesday with the without getting thirty three thousand dollars honestly barbara poll say it's headed north from london with the wider range of officers involved. scenes from everyday life in the gaza strip just before the twenty fourteen israeli bombardment this isn't documentary but more film part of artist rosalie nashashibi century for this year's turner prize the fact she had to shorten the trip because of the conflict made her experience there particularly tense it's charged in a sort of in a way which is like the opposite of fresh air and that's why i call the film. there is this challenge there is this energy which is exciting on the one hand.
