to. the foreign ministry. one of the really special things about working for al-jazeera is that even as a camera woman i get to have so much empathy and contribution to a story i feel we cover this region better than anyone else would be what it is you know it's that eternity vividly but the good because you have it all the people that are divided on political issues. the people we live to tell the real stories does us men do is to do we were in-depth generalism we don't feel inferior to the audience across the globe. a new series of rewind it can bring your people back to life i'm sorry and brand new updates on the best

of al-jazeera documentaries live and i was the thought of that plus a no and the other student rewind continues with joseph's journey this is the. struggle continues book. tour now of course huge distance rewind on al-jazeera. well. now they very much want to do it like we're going to see what donald trump says is highly anticipated summit with north korea could be back on a day after calling it off.

the mark on peter dhabi you're watching al-jazeera live from our headquarters here and also coming up exit polls suggest island has voted two to one in favor of relaxing the country's strict abortion laws. cycling has made landfall in amman with fears it could be the country's worst storm on record. and brazil's president calls in the military to shift striking drivers whose trucks are brought paralysis to the country. south korea is cautiously welcoming signs of progress after the u.s. president almost trumps suggested his high stakes summit with the north korean leader kim jong il and could be back home again mr trump called it off on thursday of what he said was quote open hostility from north korea but in a tweet earlier he said his administration was having very productive talks with north korea about reinstating the summit which if it does happen will likely remain

in singapore on the same date june the twelfth and if necessary will be extended beyond that date mcbride joins us live from seoul so rob everyone's playing hard to get here do we think it might actually happen. it's been a development peter which has been generally welcomed here in south korea especially after the pessimism of the past few days or so the blue house the president's office has issued a statement saying that it's fortunate that the dialogue still seems to be alive also saying that the government here is cautiously optimistic that indeed this summit might still go ahead we can't know exactly what developments there have been in the back channel talks that has caused this tweeting optimism but as far as we know the talks have only been between north korean and u.s. officials that south korean officials have not directly been involved although of

course moon jay and the president of south korea has always offered to his services as a mediator saying south korea will do all it can to keep the dialogue going of course south korea obviously has a vested interest in all of this it wants to improve into korean relations and with the downturn in the frostiness the relationship over the past week or so including of course military drills that have been continuing up until this weekend into korean dialogue has been put on hold we understand from the government here their hope is that from this week coming they can resume the high level talks which had been planned between north korean and south korean officials is there a sense where you are of that maybe the japanese have nailed this right in the past twelve hours or so when they their foreign minister is now on record as saying look you can have a summit all you want unless you actually achieve something you're not going anyplace. that is quite true but the reverse of that is it

seems to be the trump young model of diplomacy let's meet and shake hands and see where it goes from there so you could say that any kind of summit as long as it's fairly cool deal they have a handshake and sign some sort of piece of paper could be the start of a much more detailed process seems to be what people here in south korea are hoping for but it is a hugely divisive issue and the south korean government is in a very difficult position here it has been wanting to get close to the north it was of course the driver behind this whole process several months ago and has arguably has been credited with getting things this far but if things do fall apart and we return to the same rhetoric of the old then the concern for south korea is that they will be called upon by the united states the senior ally in this alliance of the united states japan and south korea to stand firm and get tough again and clearly people here majority of people in fact latest polls point to seventy five

percent of people in south korea want this dialogue to continue because it rob thanks very much. celebrations in ireland among those seeking changes to that country's strict abortion laws. exit polls suggest a two to one majority in favor of ending the ban on terminating pregnancies official results are expected on saturday afternoon the vote comes thirty five years after another referendum enshrined some of the world's toughest anti abortion laws into the constitution well the referendum on abortion last words as if they wanted to repeal an article in the constitution it's known as the eighth amendment that law gives me unborn fetuses the same right to life as the mother in effect banning terminating a pregnancy terminations are only allowed when the mother's life is at risk women who have an abortion face up to fourteen years in prison if it is repealed the amendment the irish government has promised to introduce legislation that would

allow abortion during the first twelve weeks of pregnancy island has some of the most restrictive abortion laws in europe matched by poland which only allows terminations in rare cases and in malta abortions are completely banned. i just think the odds of all of a really great news are really. going to change a lot of a lot of things or even leave the room and say no it is this is i know i said we really need right you know this is the known i know somebody more unites the complicated issue but i do think it's you know women should be allowed to choose you know a lot of irish women historically have gone abroad to have abortions and it's a fact of life that people have abortions so i think it's only right that it should be allowed. so you have not to leave because you have abortions i was ecstatic because it was such a it could have been such a close call and i think a lot of us were expecting and now out to see that it would. seem to me like

a pretty enthusiastic yes that was amazing. the latest from an historic day of voting in the irish capital dublin an early exit poll by the irish times repeated by other news agencies including reuters that puts the results as follows sixty eight percent in favor of repealing the eighth amendment of the irish constitution thirty two percent in favor of keeping it in place the early exit polls seem to indicate a landslide win for the yes vote in some areas turnout was as high as sixty percent certain points during the day was much higher than in other previous votes including the last general election and including the last major referendum on same sex marriage back in two thousand and fifteen what we're seeing here appears to be a nation at a crossroads a nation that is prepared to embrace change a nation that is reevaluated women's rights and is prepared also to bring in

changes to bring island more into line with the rest of the european union the official count begins at nine o'clock in the morning local time on saturday the official results will be given out later on saturday afternoon but it does look as if the yes campaign will be the side that will influence politics and irish society going forward for many many more years to come well nihilo is the founder of irish central dot com and the irish voice newspaper he says he's not surprised by this project yes result. the doctor didn't bark in the whole referendum of the catholic church their advice and their ministrations and their sort of outrage about this film went out city nowhere and the reason is very obvious for most of the last twenty years they've been embroiled in horrific cases of kind of city. and again the people are saying you know if you're not going to influence my vote what was amazing about this from peter in particular was

a rural areas fifty yards of poems right who are in areas almost every county in are and it seems full have fargas legislation now add to the scenario before the vote was taken was a doubling which has got above one point two million people in its catchment area was going to be to keep that there who vote happening in favor and then the rest of the country to vote against but based on his exit poll the entire country voted far in which is incredible if you go back to the previews and then in one nine hundred eighty three the numbers were almost reverse. so it's a sign of you saw with same sex marriage you're seeing it now this is a country that's for aggressing on a very very fast rate they have a prime minister who's openly gay out son of an immigrant from india it's a very very different country and i think people themselves are probably very surprised to wake up tomorrow and they realized just what they've done in terms of modernizing the country removing punishment from women fourteen year sends if you

had an abortion. and so you know they were sick of the punishment i'm sick of demonizing and i think women in particular for her new huge numbers. israel's supreme court has rejected a challenge by human rights groups to prevent soldiers from firing on protesters in gaza palestinians gathered along the gaza israel border again on friday to protest against the israeli blockade but this time soldiers fired tear gas in response one hundred thirteen palestinians have been killed by israeli forces since protests began at the end of march bernard smith has more. it's been a pretty quiet friday one of the quietest fridays in gaza have been for weeks and then within just the space of an hour really hundreds and hundreds of people were bussed in here bussed in by hamas by islamic jihad another political groups in gaza and bussed in to protest again at the border now we know that we've been told that

one of the tactics following. recent protests has been slightly different the tactic has been not to go right up to the little try and breach it but to still protesters still trying to keep the israeli forces on their toes that's the tactic we've been told they're trying to deploy here the protest organizers and that certainly seems was what has happened here because really it was there was nobody here about an hour ago and then they all came they protested there's been tear gas and there have been a number of people injured by live fire on by tear gas that the israelis have been throwing over at least twenty people injured and they've been taken away to hospital for treatment but this as i say seems to be this new approach keeping the israeli military on its toes it was quiet all day and then suddenly this quick sharp shock of a large protest group arriving seemingly out of thin air. cycling has made landfall in amman bringing strong winds and torrential rains
