this is. hello and welcome to this al-jazeera news hour live from doha i'm martin dennis coming up in the next sixty minutes they haven't voted in nine years so what will today's parliamentary election mean for the people of lebanon. iran's president won't see americans not to walk away from the nuclear deal as the may twelfth deadline for renewal edges closer. a stunning display as hawaii's killer whale volcano continues to spew toxic gas among the lover on residential areas threatening thousands of people. over the sports the most successful manager in. football alex ferguson remains in intensive care after

surgery for a brain hemorrhage and the latest on the sex united legend. now it's lebanon's first parliamentary election for nine years since the last vote there is in two thousand and nine a lot's happened there's the war in neighboring syria which has led to the arrival of more than a million refugees and there's of course the regional rivalry between saudi arabia and iran that almost inevitably feeds into this highly polarized society where the country is using a new system that's based on proportional representation for the vote president michel aoun you can see him in this picture casting his ballot in beirut just a short while ago a bit earlier we saw the prime minister saad hariri voting in another booth in beirut. olds are lie and god willing all every lebanese citizen has to vote and

perform their national unity the lebanese can vote for whoever they wish this will make the country stronger so let's try and understand this a little bit more nearly six hundred candidates are vying for one hundred twenty eight seats in parliament and eighty six of them a women lebanon's parliament is evenly divided between muslims and christians the president has got to be a maronite christian the prime minister a sunni muslim and the speaker must be a shia muslim the prime minister saad hariri belongs to the future movement with his popular with sunni muslims and he says the election is a contest between his party and hezbollah or which is the most powerful political movement in lebanon it's the only political faction within armed to an active armed wing and of course it is shia the conflict in neighboring syria is one of the main issues for voters because there are one and a half million syrian refugees. in lebanon that's around

a quarter of its population well the economy has featured heavily in the election debates and the young people of the country in particular are looking for a strong economic leadership in the face of high unemployment low wages and what they see as endemic corruption we have two correspondents in lebanon full of the elections. he is in the in the bekka valley the first us cases and a holder who is in a constituency in beirut and so for nine years lebanese people have not had the privilege of being able to vote is it with a great deal of expectation then that they go to the polls today. well martin there is enthusiasm we are at just one of the polling stations in beirut and as you can see behind me there is a high voter turnout and we have been visiting a number of polling stations across the capital and the scene is the same people are hoping for change like you mentioned there really many firsts in this election

this is the first time in nine years this is the first time an election is being held under a new law the proportional representation system which in one way or the other it's intricacies is allowing independence the chance to grab seats and this is really the first time that we are seeing so many independent candidates competing in this electoral battle challenging the political establishment the ruling political class who have been in power for years if not decades and some even since the days of the civil war but the independent candidates are acknowledging reality and that is they will not be able to grab a majority of seats they're hoping to grab a few seats which would be a small but meaningful change in their view and we have been talking to people here and and i've been listening most of them have been telling us we want change the young and the. old because their concerns really are about unemployment about the

economy yes they're worried about the war the spillover of the war in syria and the refugees but at the end of the day these people want to make ends meet and they feel that many in the political establishment have done little to improve the state of the economy but there is but in reality martin is going to be very very difficult to challenge a ruling class who have had the monopoly who have had the money they have the funding they're able to exploit their power really for electoral gains they're able to provide services to the people because most of those who are running the candidates who are running are in office even the prime minister himself the interior minister who's supposed to be running this election campaign he is a candidate so they use their power for an electoral gain and some people here are the traditional voters who will tell you that we will vote for the political parties in power because they protect us there's still this feeling of this that

that people are belong to their sect before they belong to their nation and that's why it's going to be very very hard for the independent candidates to really break this monopoly ok you've given us a very clear picture of the end of the the state of politics in lebanon today i'm just wondering about that the element of lebanese society that we mentioned earlier the youth who were quite the syphilis were they in mounting that the campaign against the piles of rubbish we saw in beirut and they managed to effect a certain amount of face one of these doing today and to these feel the density is determined completely by the sect by speaking sunni by being she'll be in christian . well yes this is the problem in lebanon it is a sectarian system of government seats in the government seats in parliament there are portions according to their sect and if anyone wants for example. services they

go to the political party which are sectarian parties so people are you know they feel that they're up against a really a challenge and the very fact that the independent candidates they're their biggest mistake really is the fact that they haven't been able to unite their fragmented and so this division makes them even weaker and some of them some of these independent candidates have actually allied with traditional parties because they feel this is the only way for them to grab any seats in parliament so many of the youth really are disillusioned but at the end of the day there are also hard core supporters for example you'll find a young supporter of the movement to say yes of course we're going to vote for the prime minister because he's protecting the identity of lebanon the arab identity of lebanon protecting it from the iranian influence and then if you talk to a supporter of the iranian backed hezbollah they'll tell you well has been our support us the shia community because we have long been marginalized in this country they have given us a say and they're protecting us from the regional turmoil they actually see this as

a fight between sunnis and shias in the region and hezbollah protecting them so there is division it is a polarized society but it's going to be very very hard to get rid of this political establishment and this is what many young people would like to see all right thank you very much for that same as in one hundred live as you can see from a fairly well attended polling station in beirut now we can get a hush and. her son who is in south now how should first of all explain to us way you are and how this sectarianism that dominates the nature of lebanese politics is reflected where you are. lost you know while ago i was a. head of an area which is a hezbollah stronghold and for hezbollah of this is quite significant it wants to consolidate its political gains because the consider any loss in. the had

a middle area as a major setback for the but we are still in the big part today we are in sad now you know which is a predominantly sunni area this is the widely considered to be a stronghold of the future movement led by prime minister saad then how did he and said the how do you he wants to win this seat to expand his influence in the country if he wins with a majority a comfortable majority particular within the sun the candidate who will be able to form a government talk to the international community from a position of force joining me now is i let him see always a supporter of the future movement i love i would like to ask your question this is the first election since two thousand and nine how significant is it for you. this election is very significant for us we are looking for a job opportunity for the young people and you are looking for a better infrastructure and you've been on and for a shorter security and health security do you thought it was up to the people and

peace and love for all the human is the people this is a country which has been politically divided has belong on hand backs the syrian government said that heidi staunchly backs the syrian opposition people are concerned about the future of your country how do you see the future of lebanon. we hope that the ban on will be a way of. conflict. and we won't that the lebanese army will be the only defender of the lebanese people. and we need the peace and love is going to get thank you very much indeed martine this sentiment reverberate across lebanon and this explains why people now point out to what they describe as the disconnect between the may seem political establishment which is more concerned about consolidating its political gain particularly within the sect . itself and the normal liberties who go to the though today hoping for something

different they would like to see the services improve the solution to the waste management solution to the growing unemployment among young lebanese they would like to have faith in the future but for them to have faith in the future they want to ensure that the political establishment will be receptive to their concerns against this backdrop of the political divide among the different sects eleven people are hoping that with a new election code they will be able to see new vibrant young voices looking speaking a different language looking for new alternatives for the thousands of young lebanese hoping for a better future all right for now thank you very much. and of course here at the al-jazeera will keep you right up to date with those voting patterns in lebanon today as people go to the polls for the first time in nine years now iran's

president says the u.s. will regret quitting the nuclear deal like never before those were his words how some rouhani said his government is prepared to respond to such a decision is taken president trump has repeatedly said he wants to leave the twenty fifteen agreement he has less than a week to decide i gather because as the drums show that if the us ups to pull out of the nuclear deal it will soon realize that this decision will become a historic regret for them no change will occur in our lives next week we have devised plans for any possible decision that trump might make and will resist it well a bit earlier on saturday a prominent advisor to president trump said he's confident the u.s. will indeed walk away from the deal rudy giuliani was speaking an event at an event which was hosted by a group called the organization of iranian american communities. and with such various napalm peo now on his right hand and his national security adviser john

bolton you remember john what. was. what do you think is going to happen to that agreement. that nuclear agreement i. feel on top of that the british foreign secretary johnson he's on his way to washington to try to convince president trump not to quit the iran nuclear deal but mr johnson's visit comes shortly after the leaders of france and germany that both made similar attempts last month emmanuel mccall and angle americal say the current deal is the best way to stop iran from developing nuclear weapons israeli media is reporting that president trump could israel to withdraw from all neighborhoods in occupied east jerusalem now the speculation that this could be part of the u.s. peace plan for the region and it comes

a week before the american embassy officially moves from tel aviv to jerusalem seventy deca it's in west jerusalem. reports in the israeli media that the trumpet ministration will israel to hand over cede control of four palestinian neighborhoods in occupied east jerusalem drugger free of course is incredibly important it is everything when it comes to resolving this conflict three of those neighborhoods one of them is the ready outside the separation wall two of them very close to it the other one being talked about or fought is one that is right next to west jerusalem many people will tell you that it will be incredibly difficult to see how israel will allow to hand over control of that the bigger picture here is what's important and also no one has yet spoken about the future of the old city the old city of course home to the al aqsa mosque compound it is holy to muslims it is holy to jews many people will tell you the palestinians won't accept anything when it comes to the core of the issue i think it's all about concessions we have

heard from the israeli defense minister avigdor lieberman in these radio media as well saturday night saying there is no such thing as a free lunch of course referring to the transfer of the american embassy here to druce and we expect that on the fourteenth of may concessions will have to be made by both sides the trumpet ministration of course donald trump will be incredibly keen to be seen as the man who's been able to resolve the impossible he's calling what we are expecting to hear a new plan that their administrations been working on the deal of the century i think however no one is holding their breath the palestinians increasingly skeptical of the americans as honest brokers following that move however other was will tell you that perhaps the trump administration will be using the move to twist israel to twist this administration into giving concessions that otherwise it will not make again we're going to have to wait and see what exactly the specifics of this deal will be we're expecting that to be announced a little after that move of the embassy to jerusalem the fourteenth. we've got

a lot more to come on the news hour including the united states and russia increase their naval presence in the north atlantic. dick we'll examine the reasons and why the kenyan government is relieving thousands of people displaced by floods from schools which once served as shelters and le bron james beats the classical sense cleveland into pass he made actions in the n.b.a. playoffs coming up with jan in school. now a volcanic eruption in hawaii is forcing more and more people out of their homes lover steam and toxic gas and even earthquakes are threatening residential areas rob reynolds reports now from near to mt killer whales on the state's big island. local resident tony lutes shot this cell phone video as new line of the events

structural damage to buildings including a school killer whale is one of the world's most active volcanoes continually erupting now for more than thirty years normally the lava flows through subterranean channels to the sea but the new eruptions are following a different pattern this is a newly established road block in the middle of the eruption zone now the police and national guard tell us that just a couple of hours ago a new law the event opened up in the trees over in that direction for the people who live under the volcano the occasional jet of molten lava and bone shaking quake are part of the price of living in a tropical paradise i'm not afraid of it just respect it and be aware of. you know i don't care if the mountain is unpredictable no one knows where the next lava breakout will be or how long kill away as angry mood will last rob reynolds

al-jazeera near mount killer whale. the u.s. has announced it will increase its naval presence in the north atlantic to counter what it calls a renewed threat from russia so it's all part of a military build up on both sides which hasn't been seen for decades dionysus of a cripple. the u.s. navy says its second fleet will be back in commission this summer operating out of norfolk virginia the fleet which was eliminated in a cost cutting move seven years ago is being reestablished to counter what the pentagon calls a rising throughout from russia at a ceremony in norfolk on friday admiral john richardson chief of naval operations said our national defense makes it clear that we are back in an era of great power competition as the security environment continues to grow more challenging and complex. russia's navy has stepped up patrols in the atlantic and both

russia and nato have been building up forces in eastern europe at levels not seen in decades while russia has fewer ships than it did during the height of the cold war u.s. officials are especially concerned about its expanded submarine fleet and increased presence in the atlantic ocean but one military expert sees this more as saber rattling than an outright threat of war i think what the russians will do is probably over time react with more submarines operating in the atlantic more messages to us that to be aware but i think that this will be kept at a relatively low level and i really don't see a huge escalation or any escalation proceeding from these actions the u.s. second fleet will be responsible for an area extending halfway across the atlantic and will include a staff of more than two hundred dian us to brooke al-jazeera. the russian opposition leader alexina volley has been released just hours after he was arrested it and i'm to government. he's now due to go on trial on friday more than

a thousand people were detained across the country after they altered his call to join demonstrations against president putin roee challenges our correspondent in moscow. two days before friday may putin's fourth presidential inauguration these russians wanted him to hear their demonstration slogan you are not ours are not we have a fascist state a totalitarian regime we should do something about it there is no election and russia. i'm here because i disagree with the politics the government and our so-called president are leading i want to tell him that he is not ours are not his places in the hague and imprisoned there again on the. several thousands joins the unapproved protest in moscow thousands more demonstrated in other cities across russia. right now almost goes pushkin square they were met by a small group with very different values goals. and

describing themselves as patriots they want to prevent a ukraine stop arising in russia just currently being officially ruled by a constitution that was written for us by american specialists well under foreign rule not everyone here is not all my supporters people came here because they see that things are bad in the country but they don't understand why so and they were told by some people that it is putin to be blamed in everything people can't figure out such things for themselves. tempers started to rise but at that point the police moved in. so they were arrested begun in other parts of russia i do want to say now that. in moscow was the business of just grabbed a young guy out of the crowd and looked like she was crying so to. after the police walk in. the numbers of detentions take top words protester after

protester was dragged away so too was the man who calls this demonstration alexina valmy he's an anti corruption opposition leader who was banned from presidential elections because of a fraud conviction he insists was fabricated his online videos exposing the corruption of russia's ruling elite have made him a critic of the kremlin and a popular resistance figure among many russians who want something different. but not even a putin's hold on power for another six years he's tightened control of the media and internet and made protesting much harder his assertive foreign policy is popular with many russians moscow's riot police followed detentions with the next act in their rough ballet clearing the square around the supporters of b. through this before and i'll probably go through it all again they feel is their only remaining way to be heard rory talents al-jazeera moscow. for human rights watch a strongly criticized saudi arabia's crown prince mohammed bin solemn over what it

calls a dramatic increase in arbitrary detentions the group says at least two thousand three hundred people have been detained for more than six months without trial some of been in custody for more than a decade heman rights watch says the saudi justice system only seems to be getting worse well the report is based on data that's published by the saudi interior ministry a similar analysis by human rights watch in twenty fourteen found that fewer than three hundred people were being held in similar circumstances and that figure has now grown to more than two thousand three hundred human rights watch says one saudi citizen has been held without conviction since two thousand and three another has been detained whilst under investigation since two thousand and six while two hundred. fifty one people have been in prison for more than three years without their cases coming before the courts let's speak now to adam kugel who's middle

east recessionary human rights watch and he's joining us via skype from amman in adam thank you for joining us you're a poet has compiled a poem figures that have been published by the government itself so do you think that cheney the situation could be a lot worse. well it's very hard to say i mean i think that the data. i you know interior ministry that is open and available for free analyzing by any research shows picture it could be that the situation is even worse or you know what other possibility is it could be that the situation isn't quite as bad as the data indicates but that the data is out of date we don't really have an ability you know what we did was we took the data from people second and we just analyzed how many people have been under investigation or with a status that is not indicative of a conviction will be brought before trial and we said how many of them or in addition how long have they been in detention i also should say that in january of

this year we sent a letter to the saudi attorney general and to the saudi foreign ministry requesting information or information about the data as presented by the almight porto but we received no response all right but given that crown prince mohammed bin sound man has outlined his vision of twenty thirty to multan eyes the kingdom and this vision is fairly ambitious we know it's got societal changes it's got changes in terms of the economy hasn't it this is a society in transition so perhaps he needs more time in order to reboot if you like the judicial system in the country. yes certainly he's taken steps to move towards reform and one of those steps was a creating a new public prosecution service in the summer of twenty seventeen and appointing a new attorney general which is a position that didn't exist before however i should say the saudi authorities have been promising justice reforms for more than ten years and they've poured millions

and millions of dollars into it yet for all these reforms we still find these massive numbers of people held for many many months and even years without trial and that's just one part of the problem once people get to trial they also face other issues including convictions based on what they say are career scores confessions as well as an inability of defendants to adequately defend themselves before studying courts some of the cases in which no defense was presented that end up with the death penalty so you know i think while the certainly the crown prince maybe even more time to institute full scale justice reforms. they certainly have not a made a lot of progress so far and i should also say in a recent interview with the washington post the crown prince when asked about detentions and unfair trials of human rights activists seemed to indicate that he did not think that the system was broken and that i'm finally at home and quickly if you don't mind i mean how important is it to a multan just society that there is

a credible neagle system. yeah absolutely necessary i mean it's difficult for investors to invest when they don't have confidence in the justice system it's difficult for ordinary saudis to feel like you know they can go through life and receive their treatment when they know that the justice system isn't working so it is a really critical it should be a critical component to have been someone's modernization efforts adam kugel of human rights watch thank you. thank you. now at least twenty four miners have been killed after a gas explosion trick of the collapse of two separate coal mines in southwestern back in emergency crews are trying to free around a dozen others who remain trapped they say the blast was cold by a build up of many things gas. in just a few moments we'll have the weather with staff also coming up in this hour just their news out this woman's condition was made worse after an operation in mexico

caused us all the problem the severity of the flooding and that's the risk that we could see some more very lively thunderstorms during the day today or even during the day tomorrow now you can see from the satellite picture the cloud here goes from georgia all the way across turkey and also into greece and so there was the risk that we could see the same similar scenario in other countries as well and this system is it really going anywhere in a great hurry so still plenty more wet weather during the day on monday i don't choose the if anything is still pulling itself together so there's still a risk of seeing some very severe weather out of this over the next day or so not only heavy rain we could also see some very large hail that can be damaging and also some very gusty winds as well so there's that storm system over turkey and up into georgia there's also plenty of cloud to the south it really has taken a long time to settle down a little plenty of cloud over many parts of the middle east at the moment. there with sponsored by qatar.

time for a second look at the top stories here at al-jazeera people in lebanon of aging in the country's first parliamentary elections for nine years president michel aoun cast his vote in beirut and earlier the prime minister saad hariri he also voted in another part of the capital the country is using a new system based on proportional representation. iran's president says the u.s. will regret quitting the nuclear deal like never before has a rouhani says iran is prepared to respond to such a decision is taken president trump has less than a week to decide. in hawaii

a volcanic eruption continues to force people from their homes lover steam and toxic gas as well as powerful earthquakes are threatening residential areas. farther back to our main story that of the parliamentary elections taking place in lebanon today we can speak to sami who is director of the institute for strategic affairs and he's also a columnist for al monitors lebanon polls he's joining us from the lebanese capital beirut thank you very much for talking to us the overwhelming sense seems to be that despite these elections taking place first time in nine years that actually the status quo will remain after the lebanese people have voted. yeah most likely we do not expanding expect a drastic change in the parliament and this is because of electoral law the electoral law has been designed by the same forces that are prevailing so

the same political forces have the law which is more likely will bring the same power were in the parliament now we may see some change in some changes in the balance of power between the current parties however we cannot back a drastic change in that sense we can't expect the new figures to come to the parliament through. new electoral vote was partially based on the proportion the board that is conducive for renew would for the better representation however they mix that proportional vote was the preferred ensure vote which is limiting. the capability of the proportion of the vote to usher. so we shouldn't we shouldn't get too excited then about the new electoral

system that as our correspondent was telling us a little bit earlier has brought forth a lot more independent natured candidates as well as more women and people from civil society. i mean. civil society plus independent manage an important. important step which is to set up a unified coalition however because of this electoral law they may do some breakthrough and some key constituencies but at the national level it's not expected they will they will make. landslide because of this electoral law and because of the sick tension in the ceasar i mean let me let me let me jump in there and move you want to that because that's something that i

specifically would like to ask you about and that is the fact that the politics in lebanon from what you're saying will pretty much remain the same but the regional situation has changed significantly and lebanon has throughout history hasn't it been buffeted by the various changes and conflicts in the region and has basically been the playground if you like for other powers you've now got in lebanon a huge hugely inflated refugee population coming from syria and you've got even more open tension between the two major players of old saudi arabia and iran how is that influencing the relative stability of lebanon. it's influenced. greatly influencing the stability and lebanon because of the political divide on some key issues pertaining to national defense pertaining to foreign affairs the issue of for instance hezbollah arm is still pending while some

considered it as resistance the other to consider it as. as a blow to the lebanese sovereignty issue of for the position of lebanon with regard of that regional conflict some parties want lebanon to be to distance itself from those regional conflicts while. allied with hezbollah want them to side by iran and this is why next elections are so important despite this the flows of this electoral law because genuine parliament has to take a stand on key issues starting with hezbollah arms and then words. politics of the stance or putting the lebanon on a side of regional conflict will lebanon succeed to. do to

take a neutral position that is important to save god it's the stability at both levels political and economic economical or what is side with iran at that time where tensions are at utmost high between iran and is that i had and that is a lot of talk of a possible new award that will be devastating for lebanon if it happens to me now do i thank you very much indeed for talking to us thank you. now to tunisia where people are voting in the country's first ever democratic free local elections and this is being seen as another milestone on the road to democracy after the arab spring but since then the authorities have struggled to improve living standards and to tackle corruption observers expect a low turnout citing an electorate that's demoralized by high unemployment and

years of austerity. the yemeni government says a buildup of u.s. military forces on its remote island as a culture is unjustified the additional amorality troops are deployed without consulting yemen's exiled government and it's still unclear when and if they'll leave. the reports. on the yemeni island it's a katra people protest against the u.a.e. military presence and morality soldiers arrived on the island earlier this week to see yemeni troops to leave key locations a government minister says the m.r.c. forces are a threat to yemen sovereignty he's calling for nationwide protests on sunday the u.a.e. is part of the saudi led coalition supporting yemen's internationally recognized government led by president abbott robbie mansell heidi oh it's fighting against iranian backed rebels who control large parts of the country but the u.a.e.

has promoted other separatists in southern yemen at the expense of the government analysts say the u.a.e. has a wider goal in mind if you consider the strategy that the united arab emirates have driven in yemen over the past three years actually we see that there is a pattern of war going which doesn't necessarily directly concern fighting the who these or reinstating the higher the government as it was said in two thousand and fifteen when the coalition started but it's more about securing a morality interest in the south of your. when exiting the indian ocean access to the bubble munda yemen has suffered three years of will in which thousands of people have died the yemeni government now based in the southern port city of aden relies on the coalition's ab power which is why criticism of the u.a.e. by ministers is rare but not unheard of three months ago a minister accused the u.a.e.

of trying to fragment the country by creating what he called separate regional and tribal armies a saudi delegation has been sent to mediate this latest crisis in a war that gets more complicated by the day victoria gazin be out there are. thousands of kenyans who've been displaced by floods and now being removed from the only solid shelter they've been able to find schools the government says children have got to go back to school on monday anderson as reports from the town of good ashy it's a school classroom but this isn't about learning it's all thousands of kenya's flood victims found food and shelter in schools but their stay is over it's time to move again the government wants to reopen the schools think. there is no way i can refuse to move i have no place of my own anymore. i

have no peace of mind. and so the registration begins and these people are then sent on their way with some basic survival kits they're heading for a place known as the chief's camp but there's little in the way of comfort there they're all homeless with no possessions surrounded by floodwaters and there's no sign of what's going to happen next. this camp may have the advantage of being on higher ground but it's a small hill top space is limited and it's overcrowded already the people have had to go elsewhere it's getting really bad for them the weather is still wet and their conditions have got worse. they have to get wood to support the top pullens they've been given these are do is sell shelters and there are no facilities here yet for the moment the nearest source of drinking

water is a one a round trip away by forte and it means wading through these floods no bomb no. longer. the local chief has orders to reopen schools on monday but admits facilities for the displaced place yet what do they have it's not enough about. about what it's not good these resilient people are remarkably tolerance some accept the education of their children must come first but at what cost in terms of hardship and health risk. to set up with although we are suffering it would be better to have this elderly defined. it's difficult now moved back and forth you never know you might be more. uncertain see like the rain clouds hangs over these people andrew simmons al-jazeera khalifi county in kenya. announces their investigation
