seekers to a third country in africa the prime minister made the u.-turn just within hours of and i'm seeing the agreement under pressure from members of the government most of the migrants affected come from eritrea and sudan stephanie decker has more now from west jerusalem on the politics surrounding netanyahu decision. the members of his own party seem to be unhappy about this they weren't consulted at naturally bennett who's the education part of the jewish home party and that israel would become let me say exactly said a paradigm for infiltrators in this is because this is these these are asylum seekers have throughout the course of the last eight years or so been called illegal in traitors by authorities here not my focus not seekers and that's one of the points which today was interesting that the prime minister actually started migrants in starting to now move forward and not do this mass deportation plan which had come under such criticism it was hailed as six success by the n.g.o.s by

the civil society to in argue against this however they did say be see how this will unfold while now in a dramatic return i think it's safe to say it's been put on hold because of his right wing likud not happy about this saying that you know they need to discuss this further it will need to be consulted in the needs to vote on it in the cabinet well under the five year agreement with the un african migrants who enter the country illegally were supposed to be resettled in western nations including germany italy and canada only i spoke to a key elder he's a senior columnist for the news website momentum he says he doesn't believe those countries were informed about the deal. we've heard already from the germans and italians that they don't nothing about such an agreement they will observe refugees instead of wonder and uganda so perhaps this is one of the reasons that

he had to suspend the deal the other thing is that he again follow his base his political base when you talk about his political instincts his political allies had being caught off guard by this up until this latest development so he playing to hear him is he on certain terms i think right now and you know is very embarrassed because on one hand he's got a ruling of the supremes quote that wants to get more information from those third parties in africa. who have deny that they have a deal with israel they are willing to take the asylum seekers and he refused actually to reveal the agreements because probably he knows that they're very problematic on the other hand he hates the idea that he's getting

a huge hug from his enemies which the human rights organizations and the israeli left perhaps they were too quick to send him their blessings for doing the right thing which is a very left think so right now i think that he has got no idea what is going to do about it tomorrow. tributes are coming in for winnie america's element the n.t. a party campaigner who played a leading role in the battle against white minority rule in south africa she was married of course to nelson mandela throughout his twenty seven years and jail but she was also a polarizing figure barbara looks back on her life. during apartheid she was known as the mother of the nation winnie mandela the former wife of nelson mandela spent years in the public eye as an anti-apartheid campaigner my husband has been fighting for the liberation of the african people for the weekend

from one to three of all the russian clubs in this country she'd been suffering from a long illness for which she spent much of this year in and out of hospital she was revered and controversial in equal measure she has been. one of the strongest women in our start those who suffered burns. and half hearted regime. who was in prison who was banished. was treated very badly separated not only from her husband but for my children as well you know during her husband's twenty seven year imprisonment in robben island when he played a crucial role in directing the anti-apartheid struggle. in one thousand nine hundred ninety now so mandela was freed and the world watched as a jew i walked out of prison hand in hand but by the end of the next year when he

was found guilty and fined for her involvement in the kidnapping of forced to wear to school children and the killing of a boy in a stumpy by had team of bodyguards the necklacing method in which he was burnt to death with petrol filled tires horrified south africans. in one thousand nine hundred ninety two allegations of corruption and mismanagement forced her out of all executive positions in the n c but shortly after she was appointed as culture minister in mandela's unity government she was sacked a year later for insubordination but kept her position as a member of parliament and head of the women's league her marriage to mandela and that in one nine hundred ninety six when he however remained a strong figure in south africa's social and political circles although she faced controversy in the latter parts of her life for millions of south africans winnie mandela holds a special place her brave fight against discrimination and for equality.

large crowds gathered outside winnie mandela's house and so where so on the outskirts of johannesburg catherine soy is there. it's going to be a night vigil in so whether the very heart of the struggle for liberation in many many people are yet to be done seeing and seeing and saying that they're just celebrating the life of freedom and then the president cyril ramaphosa was here and he said that they really lost a giant has left a huge legacy he said that he has to be doing backs out you know when human bella has been ailing for a while that the cia should be ina and out of hospital but the president said that she appears to have been doing well that's why these has brought so many south africans unaware of the shocks they say that devastated the heartbroken she's going to be accorded a state barrier all we need mandela kept the struggle alive when i

have my has spent by nelson mandela was in. so many years she was a warrior. outside of the very passionate king of the. us she was also up front of us so we got our food and we got to you stop being unfolding human rights abuses to bring out my guy trying to be like you can be argued that she had a very meek and leadership style cloak she was a very controversial figure but all of these people who he often said to have very . strong in the fight against that they say that women their law moved very life and forks. ava's jones do eva is a race and gender analyst and the author of how exceptional black women lead she says when the mandela was an international symbol of apartheid resistance. she

should be remembered as a bold courageous freedom fighter a woman who faced the just horrors of apartheid and face those horrors with courage and with resolution to push through them to to fight for the freedom that ultimately her efforts and her husband's efforts and so many others over protected period of time ultimately resulted in victory in a free south africa apartheid was not angelic ok you know i would hate to have all that she did and all that see cycle feist for her nation and for the freedom of her people reduced down to those specific events which i would argue that she herself. to mentally was not proud of i guess you would say perhaps but i would argue that the striker fight tremendously for her country a murderous government that killed and banished people for decades while the rest

of the world looked the other way if that created somewhat of a very militarized approach one could argue that given the circumstances that she faced and lived through is it that surprising at the end of the day she fought for freedom and that's exactly what she ultimately won the number of people killed by israeli forces during protests on the gazan border with israel on friday has now gone up to seventeen more than fourteen hundreds more were injured it was the first day of a sit in this meant to last until mid may put a deal to meet reports now from gaza. people here in gaza are pinning a lot of hope on the so-called long march of return which is basically staying along the border for dinnick six weeks or until may fifteenth which is actually a day the palestinians refer to a snack bar or catastrophe because it is the day of the creation of the state of

israel the cabman's are about five hundred to seven hundred meters away from the border fence which is just there in the background there you see some people have gone a bit further down and they are basically at the limit of do so-called buffer zone about three hundred meters by israel they don't want the army doesn't want to see anyone in that area but you can see that some of the young people have actually gone defiantly a bit closer to the border now organizers and the people coming here want to make sure that this remains a peaceful nonviolent sit in many people i spoke to said you know we had several wars here in the gaza strip over the past ten years there was a lot of violence we lost a lot of our own people we are going to try this new way and nonviolent long term protests in the hope that maybe it will change something many people will tell you

that they are sort of fed up of living thanks to humanitarian handouts they want to take their own future into own hands they want to have life in the gaza strip like life anywhere else as specially they want to be able to have at least freedom of movement. there's been a demonstration in tel aviv against israel's military action on the border with gaza activists and members of israeli palestinian parties protesting against the escalation some held banners with the slogan jews and arabs refuse to be enemies of former leader from the israeli parliament attended the rally and stressed the importance of peace. the fact that the state of israel decided to react with violence only means that israel forgot the other language israel forgot the other hand. in the demonstration here here's a hope one among many that eventually will persuade the government and the public

opinion that the fence is important but the peace of friends here is much more significant ok still to come here on al-jazeera promises of fairness from egypt's president uphill fight l.c.c. as he overwhelmingly wins a second plus. i'm roslyn jordan in washington coming up a very human look at martin luther king jr. from the clear blue sky of the doha mooning. to the fresh autumn breeze in the city of love. hello there we're seeing some rain begin to pull itself together over parts of china at the moment though it's not looking too bad the winds are feeding up from the south it's also warm in shanghai at twenty six degrees but then that cloud begins to build in will see some rain probably from around chongqing all the

way across to the fujian province so some of that is looking pretty heavy to the south though looking fine hong kong at twenty seven it's also looking mostly fine and dry forth across the philippines but further south we're seeing plenty of showers across many parts of indonesia and there's a stretching towards the west and then all the way up into thailand thailand seeing some very lively showers there's a breaking up a little bit now though so still one hundred two around on wednesday but not quite as many as there have been instead somewhat to weather will be over parts of somalia and across into java two for us in india it's mostly dry here but certainly rather hot but some cloud in the east the hasn't given us a great deal of significant rain that's working its way away from us now anyway and for most of us it will be brought to the just the outside chance of a few showers around some of the coats for most of us no change in the weather just hot and dry in the north with a movie more clouds and a chance of seeing a little bit of snow but it looks like that will clear away as we head through wednesday so even here looks like it should be mostly dry force. there with

suspended a deal with the un's refugee agency to resettle more than sixteen thousand african migrants in europe and north america benjamin netanyahu made the u. turn within hours of announcing the agreement under pressure from members of his government. tributes are being paid to south africa's former first lady we need medical and mandela has died at the age of eighty one she played a prominent role in the anti party movement and was married to the nation's first black president nelson mandela is twenty seven years in prison. the number of people killed by israeli forces during protests on the gazan border with israel on friday has now gone up to seventeen more than fourteen hundred more were injured in the first of a city that's meant to last until the middle of may. fears of an all out trade war between the u.s. and china are growing after beijing imposed tariffs of up to twenty five percent on more than one hundred twenty american products they followed u.s. president donald trump's imposition of higher to seize on foreign steel and

aluminum last month a dream brown from beijing. list of u.s. goods targeted by china is in line with what officials here proposed last month that's when president donald trump applied new levies on chinese on a million and steel imports the latest measures would affect around three billion dollars of u.s. imports but that's less than two percent of the value of u.s. trade with china from monday the chinese government began imposing additional juvies on one hundred twenty eight kinds of products the highest tariff of twenty five percent will be on u.s. pork a fifteen percent duty will apply to fruit nuts and wine but not soybean imports worth around fourteen billion dollars annually to the u.s. analysts say china's response appears measured i think the key here is targeted what they have done as a package i mean one hundred twenty eight or a rather small items but you'll notice that apart from the scrap aluminum they're

mostly agricultural in areas that will that voted for trump i think china is trying to send a very measured response last month the trumpet ministration announced a second round of trade sanctions against china a twenty five percent levy on more than fifty billion dollars of chinese annual imports the white house has not yet specified which products will be affected but targets will likely include sectors like robotics artificial intelligence and electric cars industries at the heart of the new made in china strategy chinese leaders say they don't want to trade war with the united states but won't sit back if the economy here is hurt for now though they appear to be trying to prevent tensions rising still further if it came to a trade war china would have more to lose as it exports far more to the united states than the other way around some chinese shoppers we spoke to though did not

appear concerned what datable might help if the u.s. wants to fight a trade war i will never buy their products no foreign products japanese korean american we have our own products. well you know i think we should give up buying american products i'm chinese i must support our own products it is not a trade war yet but the coming few weeks could determine whether one really will happen adrian brown al jazeera asia. well the stock markets they've been rattled in the u.s. not just by the tariff or but also president trump's targeting of the online retail giant amazon gabriel elizondo now from new york stock exchange. monday marked the first day of trading in april and the first day of trading in the second quarter and it was a very brutal day on wall street with the dow down more than seven hundred fifty points at one point during the day on monday before closing down four hundred fifty

but it was a hit across the board as the s. and p. and nasdaq also took hits closing down two point two and two point seven percent respectively it's really caused by two things number one is wall street very concerned about this brewing trade war between the world's two biggest economies united states and china this came after china announced they're posing tariffs against more than one hundred twenty different types of u.s. imports they announced that early monday morning here in the united states this came after the u.s. and outs similar tariffs against chinese imports to the u.s. last month so investors really worried that this trade war could signal potentially a more broader trade war throughout the world that could affect the global economy beyond that also worry about amazon and quite frankly donald trump's twitter finger over the weekend president trump tweeted that amazon the e-commerce giant was

responsible for in his words billions of dollars in losses to the u.s. postal service because of the products that amazon delivers on a daily basis from the u.s. postal service trump really signaling out amazon for criticism here and this immediately affected amazon's stock it dropped more than five percent on monday and this has ramifications for the entire stock market because amazon is the third most valuable company in the world with market capitalization of over seven hundred billion dollars it's a stock that seen it's gone up over sixty percent this year alone so when amazon takes a hit like that it affects the why. stock market more than a thousand central americans are crossing into mexico in a journey organized every year by migration activists the so-called east a caravan is aimed at highlighting the plight of migrants escaping crime and poverty many are looking for a century in mexico or the u.s.

and that has enraged president trump john from mexico city. the become any which way they can on foot in buses and trucks central american migrants crossing into mexico looking for sanctuary here or in the united states they usually go in small groups but every easter activists organized this caravan to bring awareness to the plight of those fleeing poverty or criminal gangs in their homelands particularly el salvador and honduras. it started with threats and i'm a woman and while men can be more than me we couldn't figure out any solution except to come here and that said i think a lot of the caravan organizers hope that the sheer numbers will keep them safe from the cartels which often kill and extort migrants and mean that of thirty's let them stay or pass through so far they've been granted free passage that's infuriated u.s.

president donald trump who tweeted mexico is doing very little if not nothing stopping people from flowing into mexico through their southern border and then into the u.s. that on the whole is not true over the last four years mexico has drastically tightened up its southern border with the help of funding from the u.s. usually migrants accord in a web of patrols and checkpoints there have been many accusations of human rights abuses the tolerance for caravans like this one is exception not the rule something mexican foreign minister luis fee that i highlighted on trump's preferred battleground he tweeted every day mexico and the u.s. work together on migration throughout the region the facts clearly reflect this the government here. would hope that its efforts to stop migrants heading through mexico to the us would help the relationship with the northern neighbor but president from doesn't appear to see it that way after learning about the caravan even threaten to call off a trade deal between the countries it's impossible to know how many of the tweeted

threats will turn into policy but it's another headache for the mexican government and an unhappy signal for those who say going home is not an option john homa. mexico city egypt's election commission has. secured his second term in office with just over ninety seven percent of the vote the same percentage that won the former military commander his first term four years ago but voter turnout was lower this time around as for any o.t. now reports. it wasn't as much of an election as it was a referendum on the presidency of abdul fatah his sisi. i promise to work for all egyptians without any discrimination whoever renewed their trust in me and gave me their vote is indifference from those who did not egypt is for all egyptians as long as the differences do not corrupt the nation. essentially unopposed sisi had

been hoping for a high voter turnout the only way to know if it approve of his leadership the election commission announced forty one percent of the sixty million eligible voters cast their ballots that's lower than the turnout during the two thousand and fourteen election that gave sisi his first term. that there has ceased abdel fattah el-sisi one twenty one million an eight hundred thirty five thousand on three hundred eighty seven votes which represents ninety seven percent of the votes and many a may have been me in the. egyptians voted over a three day period but many polling stations tended to look like this just a trickle of people streaming in. state media try to increase voter turnout by telling people if they don't head to the polls they can be punished with a fine. d.v.d. some egyptians say they received food payments and other incentives to vote it wasn't a competition there were no public debates and sisi was virtually guaranteed reelection

because his only opponent who. supported him was even part of the campaign to get c.c. reelected other well known and popular contenders withdrew their names saying they faced intimidation they were either detained disqualified or forced to abandon their campaigns they said the vote was a charade and called for a boycott and judging by the number of people who went out to vote many may have heeded that call renee or de al-jazeera now the group controlling the last rebel stronghold in the syrian capital damascus has reached a un brokered deal with russia to allow some evacuations under the accord the families of jaish al islam humanitarian cases and the injured are allowed to leave the town of duma in eastern guta they'll be taken to the north of the country where can stay is the fiftieth anniversary of the assassination of the u.s. civil rights leader martin luther king in the latest in a series looking back at his life examines the breadth of his ambitions are on

fire. in the struggle to end segregation in the united states in the one nine hundred fifty s. and one nine hundred sixty s. martin luther king jr was at the head of the marchers and the boycotters a powerful symbol of nonviolence pushing for legal and social improvements for african-americans. but according to the new documentary king in the wilderness king had a vision of achieving more a vision still unfulfilled fifty years later taylor branch is king's biographer and one of the film's executive producers we were on a mission to redeem the soul of america from the mankind's triple scourges of of racial bigotry war and poverty for a largely invisible tiny minority to have that as an ambition is just stunning my.

king was a preacher by training and so it was natural for americans to consider him a leader even a prophet but only to a point as long as king gave speeches on voting access to public spaces and equal treatment under the law branch says his support was widespread but once president lyndon johnson signed the voting rights act into law in one nine hundred sixty five king's influence cratered even among his fellow activists because he opposed the vietnam war because he was trying to launch an anti-poverty campaign and because young people impatient for change cheered on the black power movement what depressed king more was the great rush of excitement about black power that obledo aerated all the questions of the potential of nonviolence and how quickly nonviolence became kind of passe in the culture. by the time king was assassinated

on april fourth one thousand nine hundred sixty eight he was drained under f.b.i. surveillance and worried about a race war but he still wanted to work fifty years after martin luther king's death people speak of the dream he had for a better society king is revered but it's important to remember he wasn't the us a saint. rosalyn jordan al-jazeera washington. this is al-jazeera these are the top stories israel's prime minister has suspended a deal with the un's refugee agency to resettle more than sixteen thousand african migrants in europe and north america benjamin netanyahu made the u.-turn within hours of announcing the agreement under pressure from members of his government tributes are being paid to south africa's former first lady we need a medic is elam and bella who died at the age of eighty one she played
