economic uncertainty in iraq is finally set to hold elections as an unseen global battle rages for resources beneath our oceans we all skip the seabed is the territory still to be claimed. commemorating seventy years from now al-jazeera examines what has changed in the past seven decades on both sides of this conflict made on al-jazeera citizens unable to vote on represented in washington the members of congress do nothing about the cause like part of the constituency in their responsibility and that is what's underneath this crisis phone lines visits the island devastated by hurricane maria and demanding the support of the u.s. government more than we can tell you what it is and in the film mentality responsibility to not let them forget the. shelter after the storm on al jazeera.

this is zero. zero and welcome to the al-jazeera news hour live from our headquarters in doha but i'm coming up in the next sixty minutes not. a king opposition leader as detained as thousands join an antique approach a demonstration in moscow. aid workers in kenya said have only been able to reach of course of nearly fifty thousand families needing shelter after weeks of torrential rains. the rain of the world. was there with lulu we. welcome them or at least fifty thousand on the ones living in the u.s. face to. the government ends their protected status and mission to mars what nasa

hopes to find deep beneath the surface of the red planet. russian police have detained opposition leader as well as more than one hundred of his supporters and demonstrations across the country the volley was avoided by protesters the c.e.o. bob at the rally in moscow the protests have been taking place two days ahead of many may putin's inauguration his opponents united under a slogan he's not some are referring to putin's eighteen years in power let's go to our. challenge now he's joining us on the phone from moscow what's happening there now rory. well the last couple of hours basically it's. a standoff between three different groups of people leave. the full it is they've come down in

it's a real plows and. greeted when they arrived in pushkin square. by a group of. guys like a nationalist spirit decided that they were going to come down here as well and provides the other side of the argument. because they help you find the main because it's. playing piano and john saying please insulation they call quite heated times between the valley circle it isn't the and the earth and people it is and that's basically when the police started moving in and they were using tactics that i've seen time and time again send in snatch squads running into the crowd sponsors of police grabbing people pretty rough predrag men back out and shoving them into the police black and then this is repeated time after time after time so i was witnessing dozens of arrests think i'm now the police in

the process of basically pushing through and trying to clear the moving everyone out of the main square down at the natural entrances all the side streets not what's going on at the moment touches and responses by security forces that as you said you have witnessed many times boise's a coming two days before the inauguration so what should be what should we be looking out for with today's protests. well i mean this is this is the things i'm. going to rewind sixty is to two thousand and twelve that was the last time the clinton had inauguration ceremonies. at that time. the protests that took place the few days before the inauguration ceremony was basically the last many protests in a long series of demonstrations that eventually rocked putin. almost to the foundations he was very shaken by the experiences of two thousand and eleven

two thousand and twelve and how much opposition that will determine. is all because a sliding that was a very different situation to what we are now at least and it's still sky high and the right thing and the protest movement has essentially been scorched i mean that only the only guy who can really move allies thousands of thousands thousands of people into the streets but he doesn't have the kind of mass appeal it seems that the protest movement has managed to generate six years ago so what we have to look i think. the next few days and weeks going particles and that of course as well is whether he can actually say what he's already built. and is it possible for him to actually build on it can he get more people out on the streets at the moment i think the police in this speeding fairly comfortable as he goes into a school. bus or thank you very much for that for now that's a cost challenge joining us on the phone from those protests in moscow and we are going to get more on this we're joined by political analyst dmitri babich he is

joining us live from moscow always good to have you with us on al-jazeera so the election is that which is why we having an inauguration in two days so why why do you think missing the volley is. going on with these protests what is he trying to get out of them. well i think that basically he is five years hold less because now in his main problem is that he is a lawyer wolf he is not a team player unfortunately he quarrelled with just a mild all of the liberal opposition leaders during the last three months he managed to spoil his relations with seniors some john he spoiled his relations with the young worker and its leader everybody only in a few years ago and well i don't think he will be able to achieve much because he's message here is very simplistic i would say he is talking about eruption which is

a real problem and he doesn't suggest therefore that your program and he doesn't have allies in this situation i think he was just trying to kind of send a master to about himself that he is still there that there are young people who already get involved with the streets and spend a few days so if you are us in a police precinct with him that is a message which i think is just not very serious but mr bobbitt it is a message that's resonating with thousands of people around the country and it happens every time he calls for these protests mr putin did when the election if he is so confident of support for him why don't you think he allows things protests especially if as you say they're hopeless. well first of all on his supporters had their protest will be in a lot of their c.d.'s around the country in like he was in the obviously beers they

were not in of course they were not. there because they were agreed doing in the legal manner and who are very likely were sent. what and there are one hundred forty two million right. chanson russian citizens living in russia so you're right thousands of people. this is very much this is not a war for a big country like russia the reason why i was called there was this problem was. thora two years give no longer on of the central streets in this city which was the scene of broader. wealth six years ago when they suggested to have a march on our software of course then you know and really big street there in the central mosque or bhatnagar only insist that all the main street there skynet which

is why broadway in new york and this is the main i would say the main transportation are pretty old to see it is basically leading into the ground in or oh i think it was with the occasion and with the growth. proper legal over kind of our legal ground if you want people just didn't want to hear less about it we thank you very much for your time and your analysis on this that as dmitri babbage joining us live from moscow thank you let's move on to other news now and thousands of people marching through the streets of paris to protest against president emanuel macron the rally marking his first year in power as court a party from that crown has been facing opposition to his plans to reform labor laws and pension schemes. the u.n. is one of the disease outbreaks caused by severe flooding and kenya at least one hundred twelve people have been killed and more than two hundred sixty thousand

displaced over the past two months the red cross says it doesn't have enough money to fund its emergency operations and are simmons has been traveling with one of the relief teams. the situation isn't getting any easier in fact it's getting the kenya red cross warning now that they can only reach a quarter of the fifty thousand people who are marooned cut off completely and in a bad situation we set out with one of their teams to find one area where people needed help pretty desperately. it looks like a vast lake yet this is the river town or it's consumed villages and lives. we changed course away from the river going deep into the bush. the mango trees full of fruit hardy. the birds make good out of most

situations but any illusion of normality is lost when you look through the clearing . was a seasonal stream has turned into this the forces of nature are the water line that still rising. on the shoreline ahead people who have walked for hours from higher land they've waited days for help to arrive no cheers no shouts no pushing but the need here is deep seated. it's not everywhere in the world where you'd find people so calm in a situation like this when they've been marooned for several days with absolutely nothing coming in until now but there are pockets of anger. here that i have been here for the days waiting for the help i haven't received anything. and wheat in it i need it now. he has all the right saying.

i can also help way come. across we've done what we can for not asking more people to come and help us so that we can reach more people. and even some of those getting their rations of food enough aid to give them basic shelter feel it's not enough this mother of eight is setting out on a two hour walk back to where she's living rough her home has been lost along with her livestock i don't so much that i was and i did i was even though i'm scared about my children they're hungry they're exposed the rains and because of that we're likely to fall sick for those left behind you can see it from their expressions they need help now along with so many others and even more remote places than this. here in the neighboring county of khalifi it's the reverse of baccy another major river that's causing all of the hardship right now people are

leaving the school here so many schools have been used to shelter but now it isn't nature that's forcing these people away it's actually the government because they want these schools to reopen there are seven them seven of them here in gary she alone many others are also being used they've got much better facilities obviously water and sanitation but no these people are going through a camp they're having to move again they're not really complaining that fact that their children need education but everyone is really getting to terms. trying to get to terms of the fact that this crisis isn't going to be over within days in mind will be over within months because there could be a lasting effect so many crops lost so many livelihoods lost they had a drought now they've had another extreme to long rains to renshaw rain and the forecast is adjusting the rains could go right into june that means crops will be

totally destroyed it would have been the planting season and then you're into what could be another drought afterwards well these people are in a situation where there should be an abundance of food here but their whole life herds the whole lives are being threatened. hawaii's big island which is dealing with a major volcanic eruption has now been hit by a series of strong earthquakes nearly two thousand people have been forced to leave their homes as lava flows and toxic gas threaten residential areas many on the hand has the latest. on the five days hawaii's big island has been wrestled by hundreds of earthquakes and then three major train is over a three hour period the biggest a magnitude six point nine. the seismic activity began on monday when the crater floor of the. volcanic cone on the killer whale started to collapse now the flowed into newly created underground chambers that larva along with rocks in toxic gas is now being spewed into the year

and coming out through the years if the the stay active for a short period. weighing in on the start of the killer wears one of the world's most decked evoke a no vulcanologists say it was never a question of when but where the volcano might erupt what's different this time is that a new fissure is a period much further down the mountain the challenge with this activity is the fact that it occurred in a populated area now the question is will it stay in that area will it move to another part of the part of the volcano and how long will it last. officials ordered at least seven thousand five hundred people to leave their homes including everyone in the town a puff or. two got into this residence of familiar with the dangers four years ago kill away as lava flow

stopped just short of the town. experts say the gases and the highly toxic but while the lever is dangerous it's slow moving that means people will have time to escape even for those who did get close to it but buildings can't be moved and times have already been destroyed the killer way has been erupting on and off for thirty five years expect so it's difficult to predict how long this irruption will last but they're insisting they'll do whatever is necessary no measure the disruption to keep people safe and now to syria. more ahead on the news hour including donald trump says the date and venue a set for his nation with north korea's kim jong on. americans abroad and increasingly lonely and you may be surprised to find out who is the loneliest of all plus the n.b.a. defending champion slip up in the playoff race the warriors' big buy the pelicans job will tell you what that means for their series and sports.

the u.s. has announced a change in policy that could lead to the deportation of tens of thousands of on do an immigrant's donald trump's administration is ending a program that allowed them to stay in the united states humanitarian groups are calling the decision heartless and agalloch of reports from washington. fleeing violence and poverty in central america migrants gather at the us mexico border seeking asylum. for the last few weeks this so-called caravan of people is a trying to the attention of president donald trump he says the u.s. border is under siege and the immigration laws a week but to protect our families we must secure our borders and the good thing about the caravan people are watching people are watching you watch how horrible they're coming in from honduras they're coming in from other places

they're taking this long trek up mexico. now the temporary protected status of fifty seven thousand on georgia's living in the u.s. is set to wind. the program was set up to offer refuge for those whose countries are ravaged by war and natural disasters and end of the program of legally lived and worked in the u.s. for decades democratic leader nancy pelosi released a statement that in part reads today's decision by the trumpet ministration to end temporary protected status is a cowardly assault on fifty seven thousand hondurans which will tear apart families and communities across america. the only ones affected six out of the ten countries offered protection are to lose their status to from one juror el salvador and haiti it will wreck their lives it will lead to will destabilize their families it will separate their families because we are talking about people who have been living

here for an average of thirty years. they have deep roots you know communities critics say the trumpet ministration is all but running down a humanitarian program that began in one thousand nine hundred ninety on jordan's of being given an eighteen month extension but over the next two years almost four hundred thousand people who've been legally living in the u.s. for years will be told to leave and they go like rogers era washington. the white house says donald trump will meet south korean president later this month they'll discuss the upcoming talks between the u.s. president and north korean leader kim jong un tom says the date and location of the meeting have been finalized but gave no details earlier he suggested it could take place in the demilitarized zone which is where ken and president moon held a historic summit last month we're having a very subsidy the soft north korea and a lot of things have already happened with respect. and i think you're going to see

very good things as i said yesterday if they do i think you're going to be seeing very very good thing. and also the trip is being scheduled we now have a date and we have a location will be announcing as well as the u.s. prepares for talks with pyongyang north and south korea go ahead with another display of reconciliation this time for the time zone where north korea has set forth its clock by half an hour to match its neighbor kathy novak has more from seoul. these flowers in the center of seoul are symbolic of the renewed hope that many people here are feeling about this country's relationship with north korea the display depicts a map of a unified korea before this peninsula was divided into two countries korea was a japanese colony the legacy of that period is still a strain on japan's relationship with both koreas there's a reminder of that right here the former city hall was built during the time of

japanese occupation so in two thousand and twelve the city government opened the new modern building behind it three years ago north korea made its own symbolic statement it set its clocks back by half an hour saying that pyongyang time would replace tokyo time which was imposed by what it called wicked japanese imperialists as a result pyongyang no longer shared a time zone with seoul either thank goodness korean leader kim jong un stepped over the border and thirty minutes ahead in time a week ago state media says he felt it was painful to see two clocks on the wall of the summit venue indicating pyongyang and seoul times so he decided to realign the time zones as the first practical step for national reconciliation and unity. approval numbers in the koreas are to unify in the future the standard time should unify first is what you need this is just the beginning step by step maybe not in

our generation but in the next year we will have unification south korea welcome to the move saying it represents a decision to remove the obstacles in the path to enter korean and the us north korean exchanges and cooperation that are to come. well such reconciliation steps have given hope for peace but there is still tension especially near the border scuffles broke off with police on the south korean side when the north korean defector tried to send messages over the border a spot and we reaction from supporters of the peace process the latest can john boehner and the injury and agree to end all hostile acts including the sending of leaflets at their summit last month. and you know daughter kim jong was threatening south korea and the whole world by creating a frightening atmosphere through cruel executions nuclear tests and missile launches however he has just suddenly suggested a fake dialogue and taken a position of hypocritical peace and all society has forgotten the evil essence of

the kim dynasty and being carried away by a fake peace atmosphere the u.s. president has once again rejected calls for tougher gun laws speaking at the national rifle association's annual conference in dallas donald trump defended his policies and even lashed out at europe's stricter gun laws. paul. it was a study in contradiction as donald trump proclaimed on stage that the us would be a safer place with more guns the secret service banned the audience from carrying firearms to ensure the president's safety your second amendment rights are under siege but they will never ever be under see as long as i'm your president the national gun debate has been at a fervor pitch says a gunman killed seventeen people at a high school in parklane florida in february student survivors of that shooting at a protest of hundreds of thousands in washington d.c.

in march to demand a change to gun laws to stop the violence and for a time it appeared the president was listening what i'd really love to hear is the donald trump that spoke the day after the portland shooting in that cabinet room and he said he was bored spitted background checks and raising the age of purchase and just saying hey guys there is something we can do we have to do it i'm going to show leadership we can't be afraid to be an array we're going to do it order but trump quickly back paddled after meeting with n.r.a. leaders his only action since has been to moderately shore up background checks and push to arm teachers the n.r.a. contributed close to thirty million dollars to trump's campaign its members are among the president's strongest supporters you asked me how he was doing in order to the second a member of the doing very well recent polls show a growing number of americans close to seventy percent support more gun control even as the n.r.a.

is fund raising reached record highs following the park on forty four cities some parents of children killed in that shooting are here to protest the gun lobby then they say the president's attendance and its failure to deliver on promises only deepen their pain. castro al-jazeera dallas president iran's. it has criticized a ban on a popular messaging app puss on rouhani says blocking the app telegram is the opposite of democracy it was banned earlier this week by the conservative run judiciary with state television says it was to protect national security iran has been considering the moves in the january when protests over the economy spread across the country official said some rallies will organize using a telegram a second group of syrian rebel fighters and their families evacuated from it on klav in southern damascus have arrived in the north they were allowed to leave under a deal which also saw forty two hostages released into government hands the fighters

mars insight lands it will send probes deep under the surface not just to find out more about that world but also our own mars is geologically similar to earth what's different is that it's relatively unchanged since its formation something scientists hope will provide clues as to how the earth formed after the big bang we want to understand what happened in those first few ticks of the clock on the earth that the evidence has been mostly erased. instrument point but that's not all the mars insights to your mission will also use seismometers like these to measure quakes on the planet and in a first experiment of its kind the mars insight will be trying out new satellite technology called cube sat two briefcase sized satellites will break off from the insight shortly after take off and follow it to mars but stay in orbit while it does its work below if they can still transmit the data back to earth it's thought

they could revolutionize satellite use its nasa is first interplanetary mission to be launched from a base other than florida's cape canaveral something that should provide some entertainment for southern californians people in was angeles you know santa barbara and they tell me even down to san diego you should be able to have you know a good show for several minutes as long as the fall there's no clouds in the sky but after saying goodbye the scientists will have to wait six months before insight reaches its target and is able to dig deep into the red planet kristen salumi al-jazeera. right and it's time for the weather with rob now and a mom rain in just one day in texas respite it's not a thing of war is not like the mess we had last year this is specifically in austin texas and it was a we saw them developing this time yesterday actually if you look at the satellite picture down this tail and now that is an active part of the cold front so in austin this stuff we and rain were to cause damage this is

a tree limb down and that was it blowing through austin itself now surprisingly no tornadoes reported no significant hayward port of the amount of rain not to see movies doesn't seem great but certainly the most recorded since eighty ninety five in any mayday being the u.s. is probably just actually the fourth of may now the front itself exists all the way up through the appalachians towards canada and that show top end is a cold front caused damage in itself wind damage again a bit of video for you this is taken from toronto's international airport pearson just look at this that's just blown by the way not misstate is empty but it's still a light weight thing more evidence this is in the city of toronto itself i mean i know it shouldn't be so. but it still takes a wind to move this sort of thing the two deaths and fortunately from that that is where the cold front is now as it's not temperatures back a bit in new york from twenty nine to twenty two with. suggests is more significant

information that fighters were hiding in that area when they were asked to surrender the soldiers say the fight to stop that shooting operation is going on things are not under control everything is an under control you want to look. so that there is not much there is more damage off assuming property and and other things so i think that under control. old street fighters were killed by security forces during the operation police accused protesters of trying to impede their operation and help the rebels such as your money by our brothers who've left in the path of allah they left for us and they've taken up arms after seeing the tyranny in kashmir now we have come out to rescue our brothers. india continues to blame neighboring pakistan for instigating trouble in the disputed region which pakistan denies. activists say more than seven hundred thousand indian troops and security personnel have been deployed in kashmir and the army is opposing calls to repeal

power their main objective is to increase the number of. number of seats and. the new law is supposed to give a chance to first time hopefuls but breaking the establishment decades long hold on power is not easy the problem is that the civil society. just. hezbollah and amal are the only parties that formed joint and the torah lists at a national level they have long dominated the muslim political landscape but they are facing opposition from within limited but a challenge nevertheless and that is why hezbollah has been campaigning extra hard . so i.

military power. politicians have been focusing instead on securing their power if the hope was to bring about a new generation of leaders that likely will not happen there may be some changes within parliament but there is a general consensus that these elections. are in major changes to the political landscape. now events are taking place around the world. the philosopher. he grew up in the shadow of the french revolution joining a movement that challenged political and cultural establishment the radical.

the communist manifesto and. the sixty's. carried out an. international. communism the bicentennial vets have been officially launched at a ceremony in tree of the celica hall where in reports of the karl marx is everywhere in true year his face is on posters his name is on street signs his image is even on the traffic lights tourists are flocking to the house where he was born and to coincide with the bicentenary three new exhibitions are opening here to examine marx's life and his pioneering work in political theory and economics marxist this weekend and marx is such an important thinker because he connected an analyst society and a developing capitalist production in a way no one else did so intensely it is especially that connection at first significant even though it now seems self-evident and we can learn to do the same

thing today for our circumstances because we live in complicated times translated into dozens of languages marx's communist manifesto change the world it inspired revolutions in china russia cambodia and cuba and profoundly influenced modern day social democrats across europe and beyond his prediction the communism would inevitably overthrow capitalism has since been proved wrong but marx is analysis of the unequal relationship between workers and capitalist bosses remains relevant to this day germany has a somewhat ambivalent attitude towards marx but in three air he has embraced in a way that the man himself may not have appreciated the bicentennial of the godfather of communism is actually turning into something of a capitalist bonanza for the town of threat here in the souvenir shops as a whole variety of car marks products on sale comic books comics clearings a money box a mug even a car marks rubber duck and here look

a column marked wine naturally it's a red wine. perhaps this image appropriation proves that his analysis was actually correct evidence that he would see his theories is being confirmed because he wrote that everything becomes good so merchandise in capitalism now he himself has become a merchant ice marx's image is certainly iconic his profile instantly recognizable marx's funeral friedrich engels eulogized his name will enjoy through the ages and so also will his work it certainly has paul brennan al-jazeera. well while the protests are expected in the german hometown of karl marx as it unveils the statute to mark two hundred years since his birth to his new stature is a gift from china where the winning party claims that is carrying on the german philosophers communist legacy and marxist groups are planning demonstrations against capitalism while other groups are protesting rights abuses in china

socialite is a researcher at the institute for global dialogue that's an independent south african think tank and she says marxism is still relevant to many african countries . i think as we've seen the icon ism and the ideology that marx had advocated in dust capitol and the communist manifesto was very much the foundation of liberation movements across the continent and in particularly in sub-saharan africa and for the ruling party in the and see if you go back and look at for example the foundational document of the freedom charter it captured it's a lot of what marx put together in his ideological writings about the role of capitalism the production issue and the ownership structures which if you go and look at some of the questions that we're now dealing with in south africa around. restructuring of resources that the people shall own the the wealth of the land it's really around those those dynamics that marx had put together in terms of how do you create an equitable society and an equitable distribution of resources in

terms of where the role of the state is critical i think the country the challenge for us in south africa is that like many other societies we caught in a complexity and a dilemma in terms of one with there's a market level approach to the economic policy of the country but at the same time it's very much aligned to the way in which productions production spaces are defined and and constructed and of course there's an expectation by the electorate by the bye bye by the by the citizens of the country that the state will redistribute wealth but i think they still have a relevance today because what we're seeing today is not is a complexity of how capitalism has evolved and created its own sense of contradictions as well because in terms of what marxist philosophy was and how capitalism would eventually you know in conflict with the labor structures and labor would eventually revolt against capitalism i think what we're seeing today is

the question of the inequality of that of what capitalism has capitalism has produced and out that's creating conflict and tension. the u.s. state of california has surpassed the u.k. to become the world's fifth largest economy the state's gross domestic product rose by a hundred twenty seven billion dollars between two thousand and sixteen and two thousand and seventeen to reach two point seven trillion the immense quote that stems from a thriving technology sector and for the common value as well as california's agriculture and entertainment industries. now a new study in the us suggests that americans are growing increasingly lonely nearly half of the participants said they feel alone isolated or left out at least some of the time gabriel any reports. a person off in the distance alone in their thoughts sitting in a park in darkness a portrait of a man walking in the snow all by himself a young man playing basketball with nobody else around all pictures of people in

research has been done that has shown loneliness the went to heart disease diabetes depression substance use and other chronic illnesses as well the study was focused on the u.s. researchers say the numbers are similar in other parts of the world but perhaps what stood out most in the study young people between each gene and twenty two years old scored higher than any other age group in the loneliness survey former lonely than people seventy two and older researchers aren't exactly sure why but they say high social media consumption does not help. we've all seen it a million times young people in parks like this and instead of sitting next to family and friends and talking they're hunched over their phones like this checking social media in social media is very anti-social as for luke or disk he is not trying to start a social commentary about loneliness with his pictures he simply discovered taking

a miniature trees it takes years of discipline to condense nature into a small pot but takeo coati is a bonsai craftsman kamma he says he listens to the voices of the trains as he works . culebra the girl my name is tako called it a bonsai craftsman. i was a mechanic at toyota before this i had nothing to do with it until one day i visited a grower and as soon as i set foot into his place i knew instantly that i was going to quit my job and start working with bonsai. bonsai has grown in a pot but cultivating it also involves creating trees that inspire sceneries of the natural world. i find beauty in trees when they're healthy and full of life instead of in their shape. i used to be very ambitious in how i transform the trees some of which were the most admired and
