a quick process it lasted less than thirty minutes inside the court the state state that the already but the defensive they are not ready we heard that simmers lawyers want the charges with dawn until the issue of who pays his legal fees is sorted out we told that is not going to happen to the judge stated that he's going to postpone the matter into the twenty seventh of july that that should give time to figure out where the money's going to come from that's a hint though he must lawyers have warned that it may not be possible to be ready by the twenty seventh of july which means they could be another delay another possible meant sumo once taxpayers to pay his legal fees because he says he's a former president but opposition parties have gone to court and they are insisting that that should not be allowed to happen now how long could this drag on for some say months some say even years some experts and some noise are saying that it could work he's in his advantage if it drags on for as long as possible to give him time to maneuver and find a way out of the mess that he is in human. the courts constantly went in interest

the buffer zone but more and more people are arriving here we are expecting the crowd to be quite large number by the time it gets to around five o'clock local time however if you're a member of islamic jihad or hamas however you're probably likely to listen to the protest organizers organizations and not go towards the buffer zone or however if you just one of these little kids who are flying you cards you're throwing rocks you don't really have to listen to anybody and that's a real fear for many people here is that they won't listen to those instructions do not go near the border and no go near them anyway and that's where there may well be casualties deafening a situation we'll keep an eye on in the coming hours emraan for a moment thanks very much for the update there from the israeli gaza border. syrian medical sources say russian planes have launched a wave of ass strikes against a rebel held village they say the bombs hit a residential neighborhood in. province at least thirty five people were killed and one hundred others injured russia's defense ministry is denying carrying out any

response ability of all the parties to this conflict which has prompted the i.c.r.c. to pull out seventy one of its small by staff and realty them to nearby djibouti where we have a support office for yemen very sadly it's means that we have reduced the impact of our a lifesaving operations in yemen but this does not mean that we are leaving the yemeni people behind we relocated the staff this means that we have less capacity to operate but we are continuing to operate remotely from from djibouti where we have a support office what i want to make clear is that this reduction has started since the killing off i would call you can and who would. two months ago and it's ongoing now but we are not leaving the yemeni people behind but again we need more security get indians and we need more serious and solid get n.t. so that we can continue to provide the response to the yemeni people there's security council has imposed sanctions on six people involved in human trafficking

immigrants should be housed in the same facilities as prisoners we could expect to see some protests from civil rights groups about doing this sort of thing keep in mind that these facilities that they're going to be housed in are medium security prisons not maximum security prison so they would not be necessarily mixed in with people that are committing murder but medium security prisons do house people that have been convicted of things like assaults. has clinched a fifty billion dollar financing deal with the international monetary fund that's despite weeks of protests against the i.m.f. many blame for the devastating economic crises in the one nine hundred eighty s. and one nine hundred ninety s. government leaders and now trying to combat high debt and inflation. airlines are being warned of renewed activity from the why go volcano in guatemala continues to shower a vast area and rescue teams have had to temporarily abandon the search for survivors

welcome to the program i'm elizabeth for on for more than three years the people of yemen have endured war hunger and disease the u.n. estimates more than ten thousand people have been killed and three quarters of the population depend on international aid now fighting for control of her data could make the situation even worse the red sea port is the gateway for seventy percent of yemen's food supplies and half its few needs it's also the point of entry for medicines and other essentials needed by twenty two million people just to survive the u.n. and the u.s. have warned against an attack by the saudi and watty coalition fighting the rebels . well let's bring in our panel now from. a journalist and via skype also from. the he country director for yemen but pham international a very warm welcome to both of you missed a city here let me start with you what would an assault on the port of data mean

for what is already the world's worst humanitarian crisis and also for the some six hundred thousand people who live in the city of hadera. well. i mean yemen is already the world or worst humanitarian crisis is at the brink of i mean to me and it is one of the principal pulls of the country i mean to opiates the food supplies medicines and others since you come through so if i mean the fighting at the moment if rooters who and then if. life line is cut out it dark i mean clearly indicates that i mean there will be in stock and cut off of this food medicine and other essentials which will have an impact on the populations and already in

this world war you mentioned crisis and they do this three years of war are mr k.t. the un's envoy for you haven't much martin is in the capital sanaa if thought to actually broker a deal to avert a possible assault on hold day there under which the u.n. would take control of the port would the her face agree to that. no i don't think that the hotel will accept. two hundred. forty or of a day the city because the. leaks request that the un has asked to hand over who they doubled it was not from this. own voice it was well before it was from the dish eight. un british un envoy to yemen and it's really strange to ask from one side to withdraw from a city because as you say it's one of the last humanitarian line into yemen and

instead of doing that you can ask the saudi to stop targeting the city this actually show you the biased of the united nation if it true that they have requested for a hold it was though. they'd up north but i'm sure they will not accept that because if they would have drawn from this city then next time they will ask them to go from sa to the from other cities so. you have to stop it have a cease fire not to target the port live this life line go in as it used to be in a state of target of targeted by the saudis that coalition missile book i think. is such a crucial lifeline for the millions of people and yemen wouldn't it be better if it was controlled by a neutral organization like the united nations rather than the who things. i mean look at the whole the are yemenis and then the saudi that coalition is made from. medicine or even from colombia so how can you accepted that you leave

a city because a foreign coalition is attacking the city this is just just nonsense and i don't think it will be accepted and yemeni people as well will not accept that the host he will agree will agree to that there is a war south of the data and if the so do want to stop the it will continue its of or it will continue its fighting to protect that port and on the top of that wow can we guarantee that all day the city will not be like in a callous like the same in aden i think that the u.n. should actually take over aden port and aden city to secure it because it's not secured now i'll tie doesn't in free there there are many attacks suicide attacks are almost every week assassination every day and on the day the city the only. attack that's happening there is by the saudi led air strike this show you the difference between security and what they do so i think they should actually.

control the not our data but it is what they are that is the point of focus now mr who do you think should be in control of this vital port at this time do you think that the who things should give up their control of the united nations. well in my view i mean we are you mention of concern so we're really really concerned that if the line is caught then that we have a catastrophe. in more family have to physically bury the loved ones there will be more hunger and more deaths we are really concerned that the quiting stop and the international community put pressure on both the working parties to return to the these thoughts in the fighting and find a political solution so in our view we want to discuss them young rescission and through which we can find this political solution and we might

be might be closer to the political solution because as all of this is playing out it seems they could be a breakthrough in ending the conflict the reuters news agency says it seen a draft proposal for a peace plan written by the united nations it says the plan includes a call on the who three vessels to give up their ballistic missiles which they've been firing into saudi arabia and return the saudi emraan to coalition would end its bombing campaign against the whole things which has been going on for more than three years the document also reportedly includes proposals for a transitional government which would involve the who face mr because i'm sure you're aware of this proposed peace plan what do you make of it do you think that the whole thing he's willing to give up their ballistic missiles for a seat at the table in a transitional government. i just want to mention that when. the for political council in sanaa when he has met the u.n. envoy he said like i'm quoting he said we have our hand on the trigger but does

what we have the other hand will come in any peace or serious peace stalled with all parties so it was clear message that we will not hand over our weapons and this is it by the way about the way that they think they just. want to make the breaking news in there are baseless because i didn't think that they were in actually will actually dare to ask the host it to to give up they didn't say like to stop ballistic missile in exchange in the tour of stop and so he can bait they say to him to give up the ballastic missiles in return of the saudi to stop to end their campaign the saudi can switch back their campaign in yemen in a matter of seconds but if you give out you're a ballistic missiles how can you if the saudis didn't i mean change their mind i mean this is the only what is that the how they have to hurt saudi so i do think they will actually even think of handing it and we remember what happened before the invasion of iraq they would has asked saddam to hand over his weapons and hours

before the invasion he had destroyed one of the lastic long lines ballistic missile and what happened as soon as he destroyed his ballastic missiles the united states has invaded iraq so it will be the same and i'm sure they will not hand over any wobbles so that if they aren't and other mr but i think if they don't much hand over their weapons do they think that they can still when the swore militarily because if they don't hand over their weapons how do they expect to stop the swore . i mean the one who should ask him to stop the war was the one who started the war we know the talk of our power either you called the north it was an internet an internal matter i mean there are many moves around the world no one will interfere military to stop it so that all this cries is the colorado you know outbreak this humanitarian crisis in yemen it started after the saudi let's call it and war in yemen it didn't start because of the how do you cope and i said you cannot a handover while you still are under the blockade but unfortunately no one actually

can accept that but unfortunately for the who sees mr bush it is the. government of exiled president. that is supported by the saudi led coalition that you speak of that is the internationally recognized government of yemen and not the who things that the international community recognizes as the leaders in the country mr if i can come to you you know mr bush he was speaking about the humanitarian problems that the country is facing so you know after more than three years of war what is at stake here for the people of yemen and i know that you organization said on wednesday that yemen is one step away from famine now and that millions could be affected. or this is really really you can you can imagine the two million people need. aid and even protection assistance i mean.

also that the public's. not been. paid for their salaries for the last two years and people do not. measure or even mean to get an income school been closed for years i mean forty six percent. functional and then the cholera outbreak was one of the. i mean. that basically over two thousand people and recorded over a million cases of color and then if i mean pulled up or to. the parties do not just stop fighting if they do not listen basically international community has a responsibility to pull pressure on both doring parties to end this and end fighting and start peace negotiation and we are also concerned that in the peace

plan there is no civil society are going to stand still and women's and in the world we have seen where women's voices and the civil society voices have been hired the basically is this more than fifteen years and now this new situation while for a private frontlines active and in the new basically i mean the movement. and booked up burtons do not listen then it will really be a catastrophe i mean in the end i mean even more catastrophic military is the military in the military i don't think that is the military solution mr mccain i think all parties have to find the solution and so mr because what would it take for the who thing is to agree to a political solution one that the united nations as now reported to be proposing i think of that is.
