focus for personal stories june on al-jazeera playing . zero. hello i'm maryam namazie this is the news hour live from london coming up in the next sixty minutes colombians vote in a presidential election that could test the historic peace deal with fox rebels the front runner wants to rewrite the agreement. the details of saturday's surprise summit in the d.m.z. are revealed kim jong un reaffirmed his commitment to denuclearization. from a population of seventy five to close to three thousand were in assam to find out about the mission to save the one horned indian rhino.

whole with the day's top sports news including australia's daniel recalled with the monaco for really one grown cream that's coming up later this hour. colombians are voting in the presidential election since the historic peace deal with the fark was signed in two thousand and sixteen front on a yvonne decay has vowed to undo aspects of the cold that he sees as too lenient on the rebel group the fog deal is still fragile and the rebel group has transformed itself into a political party but it's failed to get public support that leaves two main players so let's go live to our latin america editor. in ball guitar first of all tell us about the former rebel fighters have they already voted in this election.

mariyam indeed this is a very very historic day and a historic election for the first time thousands and thousands of former rebels who spent decades trying to sabotage elections all over the country actually went to the polls for the for. time in their lives and among them was. their supreme commander better known as the what chain call he cast his ballot just a few hours ago here in the capital saying that it was a momentous occasion one of national reconciliation for this country and one that would determine the future of the peace accord signed exactly one year ago. he's the most politically inexperienced of all the candidates a conservative has an enviable advantage he's the protege of colombia's still immensely popular former president of i don't. like his right wing mentor duke is a staunch critic of the two thousand and sixteen peace accord reached with

colombia's fark rebels which many complain was too soft he told al-jazeera he would start by making a fundamental change. we want the leaders responsible for crimes against humanity to be obliged to tell the truth about what they did to compensate the victims and to go to prison no stronger part of the big. but that wasn't the original deal and many fear changing it could reignite a war that lasted for more than fifty years. on the opposite extreme of the ideological divide is former bogota mayor. colombia's first truly competitive left wing presidential candidate. he says maintaining peace and promoting social justice are his priorities better as feared by the business sector and others who predict he'd turn colombia into another venezuela. the problem with petrol is that governability would be very complicated he would clash with the establishment but

duke a representative congress passed with war and the implementation of the peace accords . but there are other options including with the us moderate former mayor said. and center right wing for. vice president hit man by the us polls indicate neither is likely to make it to an expected ground off but then lately polls have been wrong. this is colombia's first presidential election since the fark laid down its weapons but the army is nevertheless being deployed nationwide to guarantee security here they're not expecting any trouble but that's not the case in other parts of the country where there are still rebel groups at large. colombians have several choices the question is whether or not they will choose a new president who will stay on the current course of peace. you see in human. marion there are of course. of course there are other issues on voters' minds

corruption drug trafficking and inequality this is according to the world bank the second most unequal country in the hemisphere and the seventh most unequal in the entire world we've been saying that the peace deal is still very controversial it's polarizing votes is that added to that how serious are concerns about vote tampering. well that's a very good question colombia has never been free of vote tampering people being bought off people being pressured at the polls to vote for one candidate or the other or a ballot boxes being stuffed specially in remote rural areas where there's very little vigilance taking place the electoral authorities are saying that this election is going to be the most monitored in colombia in history and yet the left wing candidate through a short while ago just repeated allegations that he believes that a fraud is underway that the electoral software can and will be tampered with or

altered to prevent him or to deprive him of victory he has not offered any proof yet but this is an indication that this election could be disputed especially if the results are very close marion thank you very much our latin america editor lucy unit with our coverage of the president election very columbia. well now south korea's president in says north korea is committed to denuclearize ation and that its leader kim jong un is looking forward to meeting donald trump then has been giving details on exactly what was discussed during his surprise meeting with kim on saturday andrew thomas reports from sell. the surprise summit the second meeting in a month between moon j. and kim jong un was arranged just hours in advance it was held in secret this footage she was released only afterwards by the two governments. north korea's with excited commentary attached. so. what's clear is that the sudden

into a korean summit was a direct response to donald trump's letter canceling the june twelfth north korea u.s. summit the leaders of both korea's want that back on. we have agreed that the jute hope summit should be held successfully and that our journey to the korean peninsula is denuclearization and perpetual peace should not be halted the president moves said kim jong un once again committed to denuclearize ation and that he had told him that president trump in return would end hostile relations and cooperate economically. this was not a meeting president trump was told about in advance but in washington today he hinted he could yet be traveling to singapore a lot of people are working on it it's moving along very nicely so we're looking at june twelfth in singapore that hasn't changed. and it's more

along pretty well analysts the splits on who's driving the agenda donald trump is seen as a person who can start a war and the last say forty eight hours to get maybe more of the fear that dormant thompson is strange is going to cancel the summit and then this if you lead to a new escalation of tensions some probably of what if this year has been decisive others think it's kim in the driving seat they think his commitment to denuclearize ation means u.s. withdrawal from the region to not unilateral north korean disarmament in exchange for the lifting of sanctions i think it's the north koreans driven disengagement consolidate for strategic nuclear deterrence they've decided that they can push forward under those reasons not only with the united states but also south korea and reengage with china they have a clear pathway forward whoever is driving the june twelfth singapore summit is looking a lot more likely than it was it seems like longer but it was only three days ago

that the u.s. the north korean summit was suddenly called off since then we've been on what some have called a diplomatic roller coaster but roller coasters run along tracks someone designs them plans the twists and turns this ride is altogether different and a lot more serious under thomas al jazeera so. u.s. officials have now crossed into north korea to discuss the details of the gentile summit let's get more on this from mike hanna who's in washington like does this mean that the meeting is definitely going ahead. well not necessary at this point merriam incidentally the u.s. state department has confirmed that these talks are going ahead between the u.s. delegation and a north korean delegation now the u.s. negotiators are led by song king now he's a former ambassador to south korea who played a central role in the six party negotiations as they were no then between two

thousand and three before they broke down in two thousand and nine and interesting lee his counterpart in the north korean side is cho sort he now she is a dipshit the foreign minister she was also part of that negotiation team during the six party talks so clearly you have negotiators from each side who know each other very well who know the matters very well having taken part in a series of negotiations on the issue of north korea in the past but they have got to agree on an agenda now that is what they are per parent lee discussing in the north korean side of the demilitarized zone they'll be talking today monday possibly tuesday as well and that is the absolutely critical issue of whether or not these negotiators can agree on an agenda that could determine whether or not those talks to go ahead and june the twelfth mariyam are there concerns there in washington about the level of preparedness and the approach to such an important

meeting. it's serious indeed it has been pointed out repeatedly that the u.s. for example under president trump has not had an ambassador in south korea at all only now has president trump actually nominated somebody to take the post at merrill harry harris. naval admiral but he will not be in place by june the twelfth you've also got a situation where you've got a new secretary of state he's been in office a matter of weeks mike pompei oh has had talks with the north korean secret talks took place but once again he is unable to bring to the table a brit's of experience with the in the negotiation process so certainly there is concern that president trump may not be sufficiently prepared for these critical negotiations should they take place but president trump himself appears unfazed he appears willing to shoot from the hip as it were confident it would seem that his

negotiation style without pre-planning without preparation is something that can deal with the north korean leader thank you very much mike hanna with the latest from washington. it was the news hour live from london much more still ahead and the immigration anti european and and he muslim germany's far right goes on the march in berlin. we go undercover to expose the criminal gangs who pull the strings in the world of cricket and there's a big upset on day one of the french open tennis on the details of protests and sport. three palestinians have been killed by israeli shelling in gaza it happened east of the city of ruffa in the southern gaza strip israel's military says the man and

members of the group islamic jihad or than one hundred have been killed by israeli fire in the gaza strip since mass protests broke out in march and other developments two boats will leave gaza this week with palestinians who need urgent hospital care or trying to break a blockade imposed by israel which has prevented medical supplies from getting into the territory and patients from leaving all spittles have been struggling to treat the injured as a result of those recent protests but it smith reports gaza is blockaded by israel on all sides see included but this week two boats loaded with patients who need hospital treatment and students with university places will try to breach israel's sea blockade which begins sixteen kilometers out in the mediterranean the passengers have a strong determination to break this whatever the circumstances whatever the challenges whatever the obstacles that would have been that would be posed by the israeli side gaza's hospitals are full of patients who need urgent medical

treatment there are those injured in two months of protests and longer term cases at least now i have sixty five of them already admitted those who would want to be in the model for the. but there are many other cases of cancer and open heart surgeries and many other complicated neurosurgical cases of the day the cases all of them need to travel abroad because of this induced by the israeli blockade in gaza strip and one can they travel abroad because the bulk of our seed must of time and these patients should probably one time he can say to a patient why when cancer come back after three months he will deteriorate and you have too much complication they cannot wait life long waiting for this product up in. the post that will be used to being kept hidden organizers fear israel will try to destroy them before they leave the port and reality the boats are not going to get any further than israel's maritime blockade which is as tightly and harshly enforced as the land blockade but at least those on the boats will highlight again

the open prison like conditions that there are here in gaza the prevent almost anyone from leaving burnitz with al-jazeera gaza. well some breaking news out of the now the prime minister designate giuseppe conti has given up on efforts to form a government a presidential official spoke after kaante presented his cabinet to present last to approve it of course so al jazeera is with me here in london so nadine what's caused this breakdown. well we do know that they've been in talks the coalition which has been called the populous coalition of the league party the right wing league party who are anti immigrant and euro skeptic with the five star movement led by luigi to my oh they've been talking for weeks now let's not forget it's months now it's so nearly three months since the election i believe and the the two groups haves the best chance of forming

a majority in parliament bartz of course they have got their own differences between them but it's also been it's emerged in the last twenty four hours that real sticking point with the president has been. the appointment the choice of the prime minister designate giuseppe conti who's a law professor he's not a politician the man that he and the coalition behind him wanted as the economy minister that somebody called paolo so vulnerable now he has written a lot of things which have really worried finance finances in brussels and in germany he suggested that the euro single currency project was a bad one that plays along with a lot of voters who voted for those two parties who who do say that it's really has suffered unnecessarily under the single currency who are euro skeptic themselves but that was a red line it seems although we haven't heard exactly why they failed but in the

last few minutes we have heard from from. mr conti himself saying that it was a bridge too far trying to form a cabinet that was going to be acceptable to the president basically since they were already seeing these tensions playing out between the area skeptic and prayer forces so am unable to form a government where does this leave the country. well it leaves the country in political limbo but of course this is not an unusual situation for italians many times in the recent past people have tried to form governments and it's failed or governments have been formed they've been sworn in and then months later they've collapsed only for the italians to be called to go to the urns again i think that one thing that people can take away from this is that when when the results came out. from the general election a lot of people were saying this was a call by the electorate for a fresh wave of politicians they rejected the old order people saying that power

was passed between the same hands between center left and center right this was seen as a chance for a break by somebody will that has failed so where do we go now perhaps it leaves the door open for the chance surface silvio berlusconi the former premier the center right. politician who was an alloy of the league jury in the elections for him to try to gain support or even the center left the democratic party to come back there will be a long period we expect perhaps of a caretaker government before fresh elections more disillusionment by the the italian electorate and also of course economic uncertainty as well as political john. thank you very much andy. well now protests against refugees has been taking place in thailand thousands of supporters of the far right alternative to germany have not shrink the capital a posse swept into parliament last year on

a way to migrant sentiment and is now the largest opposition bloc david chase has the latest from. a highly vocal confrontation here in berlin but not a violent one alternative for germany held a large rally outside first of all the. main train station then marched through the streets through the brandenburg gate behind me where they held the actual demonstration the speeches from the party leaders but it was a message which the protesters in them or many more thousands of them on the streets of berlin and were members of the in terms of germany they tried to drown out the message of this party it first came into the parliament in the last elections and getting old in ninety six they are now the main opposition party in germany they have overtaken the green party and the beginning to challenge the social democrats to a part of the grand coalition so there is

a movement here towards the extreme right of hope for this movement a movement it was essentially by the large number of refugees those many of them that came in on angela merkel's open open borders policy so this is a problem that's going to remain here in germany the fact that in the book in the start you're hearing paranoid race extended phobic anti semitic remarks and you know hearing them if it will rallies on the streets of berlin this is a problem that's going to be causing ructions within the grand coalition the social democrats want to keep a liberal attitude towards refugees but those parties trying to tighten up the borders restrict immigration two hundred thousand a year so that's causing it to. even within a grand coalition. we're going to see more seas like this and we're going to hear more from the old germany because now essentially they see this growing mainly the

demographics of borders from the east blue collar workers the unemployed and the older people in eastern germany who fear their communities are being changed forever and who fear for their future so we'll see many more of these demonstrations and many aboard these confrontations. the biggest mosque in the kashmir valley has become the center of a separatist battle in indian administered kashmir fighting between police and rebels escalated it jamey a mosque in strength after friday prayers and protests broke out on saturday charlotte ballasts reports. yes there are no longer kashmir's biggest mosque has become a political battlefield outside its gates and tryna go muslim separatists dumond's an indian rule over the land kashmir has been disputed since nine hundred forty seven and on friday its holiest mosque became the stage for who should rule this land john muir margaret three of the grand mosque isn't just the center of faith

we would turn the tide on corruption in our public institutions thanks he began with a cabinet reshuffle some of the controversial ministers of the zuma years went out but others stayed including this man. now minister of home affairs leaked documents linked him to major corruption scandals he denied involvement but it seems from a poser has helped investor confidence south africa's currency the rand and its credit ratings have stabilized since he took over but the political opposition says it's not enough and i haven't seen anybody going to jail for the corruption top of the corruption menthol africa all we hearing him paying lip service to corruption and say he's going to do both and he's going to do that one hundred days i haven't seen anybody been arrested yet. last month from oppose a cut short a trip to a commonwealth summit in london the people protested in the northwest province they

a brutal campaign to defeat i still the army is working with the u.s. led coalition who helped to win the fight against last year but the presence of foreign troops remains a divisive issue. has been given rare access to a coalition base run by spanish troops. it's a hot day during ramadan but these iraqi soldiers must complete their task officers are being trained to become trainers for their own troops. iraqi forces need to maintain control after the defeat divisive and hang that i would have upon them oh we have eliminated i so militarily we have retaken all the iraqi territories now we are conducting hunting down and pursuing missions and intensifying intelligence work our fight now is a fight of intelligence prowess. as small units are learning how to navigate alleyways in the me controlled territory. a civil guard unit is conducting this course at the spanish run base as part of the u.s. led coalition the commander says exercises are important for iraqi forces to

maintain security. to train iraqi forces to be able to provide a safe and secure environment in this. situation after years of traveling there shooting skills it's time for more verbal communication it's important for iraqi soldiers to know how to serve warrants and make arrests they need a different method from fighting eisel. training for war equally important as training piece these troops are not just training for warfare but told how to maintain urban peace in an environment which is close combat. u.s. troops are also helping maintain the readiness of iraqi forces after the two thousand and three invasion u.s. forces were seen by many as occupiers since then there has been a growing military partnership. u.s. led coalition forces have provided weapons and training to build the iraqi army this why their close coordination the presence of u.s. troops in iraq remains politically sensitive and we're going to maintain and ensure

that the iraqi security forces have what they need the u.s. commander says their mission is important even after isis defeat i think there's still a need of course that naval be the decision of this government of iraq and the government that comes because we're here on their invitation but we see now that we move to more of an operational and strategic level assistance that we can provide already after the initial collapse against isis iraq's military regroup to hunt down fighters and recapture to treat iraqi soldiers are confident they have learned from past mistakes and are ready to confront challenges head on osama bin job it out of their. iraq. well worn out top story now the presidential election taking place in colombia the first since that historic peace deal was signed with fox fight as he minute sanchez karzai is a senior associate at u.s. think tank the washington office on last america she joins me now from washington

thank you very much for speaking to us so there are concerns about whether or not this election could imperil the peace deal with gravel as we know that the a conservative front runner yvonne decay is opposed to the peace deal if he wins how much damage could he do to the cold. well all of the presidential candidates have said that they would follow through with the accords but in reality even do kay has said that he would seriously change aspects of the accords which would severely undermine it for example he does not think that the fark should have any political offices in the congress which they have ten now that was one of the major reasons why the fark the mobilized he also is likely to change much of the transitional justice system which is essential to prevent peace in the future and he is more than likely to take

a hardline approach against the drug issues in the country and take us back really to the era of former president bellis that saw security and having harsh approach on the drug trade as the way to move the country forward and that is likely to ignite a lot of violence in the country so if if do q was to if it was to win the election and try to rewrite the agreement or at least renee gone parts of it you see violence as being an inevitable outcome. yes i think so because it would basically undermine the main points that got the fark that the mobilize in the first place and undermine the remedies that were put in place to get at the heart of the conflict which is basically addressing the root causes of land. alternative economies for the drug trade as well as

redistribution politically so that there would be more political diversity but at the same time there was it was a historic deal you had twelve thousand phone rebels disarming under the deal but we know that other groups in gangs have stepped into this space it is being fueled by the drugs trade and a program the things that you are referring to a program to replace coca with legal process crops hasn't worked there's a lot that hasn't materialized people wanted more from this to. yes they did and it is actually disappointing that the santos administration is leaving office in two months with having basically implemented so little of it on the part of the far that the mobilization has been serious and we have seen them taking their new role. in a very positive light but the point is that if we have a good picture or another candidate when we are more likely to see robust effort to

implement the peace including the different aspects of the peace river guarding the drug part of it that would actually help colombia move forward with two k. we fear that we may go backwards and actually go to harsh line politics and basically a more polarized effort to try to address these problems that may violence or lead to new groups getting arms and speaking of new groups if and duke a president seen destroys any chance of a deal being made with another key guerilla group in the country the plan yet how much potential is there then for the land to grow. well i think that there are several factors here you have that you know len the u.n. has been pretty much growing and if that negotiation doesn't move forward

regardless of whoever is president that would seriously undermine security in colombia but you also have other groups that have been dealt with properly which are the successor groups the paramilitary groups and criminal bands and we're seeing that they're operating in different parts of the country and that you have a high rate of social leaders being killed more than one hundred seventy of them in the past year alone by these other groups and so the concern is that a government regardless of whether it's petro or two k. or whoever wins who doesn't take that issue seriously and look at basically figuring out a way to demobilize those groups or give them incentives to stop their operations is likely going to face a lot of insecurity the peace accord itself contains aspects that would look at that precise issue has a commission set up to look at basically addressing the concerns of these illegal

illegal armed groups also through the truth justice and reparations mechanisms it would allow for the society to understand further why there was violence in the cause of violence in the country beyond just the guerrillas and the armed forces and so basically a lot of this hinges on implementing the peace accord moving forward well thank you we really do appreciate your time today to mina sanchez gars early senior associate at the washington office on latin america thank you india's causing runga national park is home to the largest population in the protected one horned indian rhino so world heritage site and considered a conservation success story but the rhinos still face two big threats poaches and the annual monsoon floods reports on efforts to preserve the species. these rhino love their muddy pool leaving only when they see the keepers that signals feeding time of the scent of
