this is al jazeera and live from studio. headquarters in doha. welcome to the news group in yemen the battle for the day that goes on and strategically it may be. coalition its forces have stormed the compound which houses the fields the seaport to. troll a look at the ongoing strategy in the spirit of. the cries of children separated from their parents at the u.s. mexico hearing from the detention center texas and while the difficult. trumpet ministration is still holding firm on its zero tolerance policy and when video

games become an addiction we know it happens we know it can happen all too easily. he says it's become so bad video game addictions can be considered a mental health facility and there's a lot more to this than just picking up a games console or an i pad have more on the psychology and the efforts made by the producers to keep people praying. the hash tag. with the news. streaming online through you tube facebook dot com and in yemen we're looking at a storming of the ports in the battle to take the port city of data. coalition forces the ones which backed the yemeni government remember now they are in control of the airports as we have been reporting fighting has intensified in the last few days people on the ground even took place. inside the airport but there's also the

red sea port which the coalition is looking to take back as we said before it along with the airport is a major lifeline for data and in fact for yemen as a whole meanwhile diplomatic efforts to quell the violence appear to be going nowhere mushing griffiths he is the u.n. special envoy for yemenis actually left the capital sanaa after three days of meetings with the rebels and he was left without a deal let's start with this update from mohamed atta he's on the other side of the red seas in djibouti from where much of the eye bound for yemen is rooted. heavy fighting is still going on inside her. despite claims by the soda pollution that they have taken control of the albert residents of the city say the coalition troops off so far taken the main where my mouth fighting for control of the passenger tunnels as well as the flight control tower for the fighters still holed up in the airport are said to be putting up stiff resistance the door mottaki first

started with. positions before the coalition troops and militias allied to them calmed at least three different fronts now there was panic in neighborhoods surrounding the airport once the but i do a missile started hitting the airport making many people leave their homes in such a shelter from the falling missiles it was the same case on monday when a talk helicopter special targeted. snipers who sees my perspective on the roofs of mosques schools as well as residential buildings in neighborhoods around. so the views now of undress craig he is an assistant professor of defense studies at king's college london a regular contributor to al-jazeera we spoke to him about the tactics being used by the coalition. the last couple of years we've seen a couple of horrific battles in the middle east and theater you know we've seen

aleppo we've seen most of what we've seen in the data is going to be one of these other big battles because what the problem are always is highly densely populated areas trying to clear these areas from non-state actors who are embedded in the civilian population who are dug in and have nothing to lose and then you have a semi conventional military trying to clear these areas and that's always going to be difficult and data is a densely populated area as well as six hundred thousand people as it has been said already and i think what the coalition is trying to do now is obviously and they're well advised to do so trying to avoid civilian casualties as much as they can they're trying to seize two very strategic spots one is today the port and one is the day the airport first of all to cut of the supply lines to do this and secondly to create supply lines and helping to reinforce their own supply lines just want to take a little closer look at her day there as well which is actually been held by the hooty since twenty fourteen which tells you in and of itself it is both

a stronghold but it is strategically important for either side now no surprise as we zoom in now we'll head out a province and the city as well that the airport is part of that strategy you see a little bit further south there one day the international airport the terminals been destroyed but taking that runway and depending on its condition we should say is vital for the coalition to fly in there reinforcements now government troops also approaching from a strip of land to the south along the coast also further north and east there have been at strikes which have targeted hooty supply lines ships have been used from out here on the coast to bombard targets in the city and you've also got the ports if we zoom in a little bit further here i've actually last night there it is getting a little tighter you can see some ships in there actually with that takes an eighty percent of yemen's food imports vital for delivering goods and much needed aid the coalition says the who these are using this port to smuggle in weapons and apparently it is a huge revenue or provides food revenues for the group so hopefully that gives you

a little bit of a geography on how this is all working. we've got hussein with us now who is a pro who the journalist and he's joining us from to talk about this first of all actually seeing as you're there in sanaa why don't we talk about the attempts by the u.n. envoy martin griffiths to actually talk to the hutu rebels what's going on there what's gone wrong because he left after three days with nothing. nothing actually has gone well because the. u.n. envoy to yemen. the same request. but if you for the u.n. envoy to yemen would. like for a cease fire or a truce in the data to hand over the ports. to you in this actually is not accepted by the host the yemeni army on all parties

that are in sanaa at this moment is really really strange that there we see that as you mentioned that eighty percent of the humanitarian aid to yemen come from data even though that saudi that coalition is in control of as they say seventy percent of yemen nothing comes from this port they are in control to help them any so this is actually prove that the hotel and they are in the army are not obstructing any humanitarian aid coming to yemen and to put this important port city that is the responsibility of the saudi led coalition. the united kingdom included as well the united states was actually involved directly in this attack on who did up or and this will actually affect mainly yemeni poor people and it will damage the what's left of yemen infrastructure so is it about as i suggested earlier you may not have heard that this is all about control if as you say the

saudis and the emirates have seventy percent control over yemen then will do anything to hang on to whatever because it is so important. yeah i mean of course we see all the like the battleground on the saudi that coalition media that they keep saying that the if we control the city if the whole the withdraw from this city is like vital. i mean they smuggle weapons and all this out of lies because even though if they have controlled and says this it is i don't think this will effect the movement because remember after they saw that coalition control as they say seventy percent of yemen more missiles are thought of it in saudi the house they have improved their tactic they have improved the drones they are targeting deep inside saudi to say about the revenue and data are they the port is closed is only for some humanitarian aid coming into yemen and some food all of a broad act that come into

a money market are coming either from port from. or from other correspond with saudi arabia which is under the control of the saudi that coalition. not damage or effect. yes or i'm going to interrupt you i want to ask one more question what will what what are the hooty willing to do to move this forward and to stop the financing or to find some sort of compromise with the help of the united nations envoy he did come there for three days and went away with nothing what would the who to be willing to do to make something happen on their side i know they have to be compromises on both sides. exactly look they have to be compromised i do agree from all side because who is suffering is there many people but but the united nation and the u.n. envoy and i hope that he will be watching you know he must like know that if he hasn't if it is not mentioned in this over the as

a part of this war if they keep saying that this war is a civil war or has a yemeni conflict then the saudi cannot be held responsible for any attack or any escape. after any truce or any agreement and we all remember that the united nations and their own envoy this went on don't give what has never ever mentioned the saudi as a fund so to sort of what's happening in yemen. houthi have to side with the saudi directly both you have to set with other parties in yemen directly under the supervision of the united nations and the u.n. envoy indiaman and then all this parties they have their name and any agreement they have all to sign or not had the or the so called legitimate government in every out as well so he must sign an agreement united out of it must sign an agreement if this will happen then i think that's all he will keep. the war if they agree about anything but this way we see that they the port is actually will be destroyed like you mentioned the. runway that the thirty minute in or they'd up or

would completely destroyed about eighty eight a strike hostile to get them in the last two hours on the show you there's no doubt about control as well about the destruction of the hussein joining us from sanaa we thank you for your time today if you need a little more background this time on an al-jazeera comes quite handy because we talk pretty freely freely about the hooty rebels in yemen don't we but this actually explains where they came from if it will actually support for me there. what they took over when they took it change the balance of power how it led to the saudi amorality intervention timeline the rise of yemen's hooty revels it is in the interest of section and out to see retorts come. and if you would like to get in touch with us as some of you are already doing then do so with the hashtag a.j. news good to remind at a.j. english on twitter if you go to my account at a.j.

i've reached way to newsgroup tweet there which you can reply to the thread you can go to facebook dot com slash al-jazeera for the live stream to watch comment amongst ourselves and comment with our producer asama who's watching the live stream back in the newsroom and plus one hundred four five one triple one four nine telegram and whatsapp you can use that number to get in touch with us there ok let's move on we're looking at u.s. immigration now this controversy which is really surrounding the trumpet ministration we've seen those sobering images the ones of children in cages after being detained and separated from their parents while trying to illegally cross into the u.s. but now for the first time we're hearing those children as well in the sound is pretty chilling this was obtained and published by pro publica and investigative journalism organization in the u.s. . there are three. people who tell me. how they can come up with. something everything was.

great. to come back. and if the emotional stress of being taken away from your parent is an alpha magine being ridiculed for it isn't quite stunning or do you hear of a border patrol agent mocking those kids. when i think they will. if we go to gabriel elizondo he's at the border town of brownsville in texas tell us more about where you are and what's happening there. yeah we are here in the town of brownsville right on the border with mexico and we're outside of what's

called casa pod drain that's the name of it's a private facility that used to be a giant wal-mart store that has been converted into depending on how you look at it either a jail or a shelter officially they're calling it a shelter but this a huge building here behind me is where the u.s. government has fifteen hundred young boys césar from migrants that have crossed the border and then have been taken in custody essential out of the fifteen hundred that are here in this facility behind me we're told by a local lawmaker that toured this facility and held a. talk to some of the representatives here that about one hundred and ten of them are young boys under age that were specifically separated from their parents or guardians as they crossed the border into the united states looking for a better life now these are young boys that crossed with their parents or guardians

and were seeking asylum in the united states once they crossed they were detained by border patrol agents on the u.s. side of the border and essentially what is going on is there was a criminal procedures going against the parents and the children the parents have been taken to a separate facility the children most of them taken here to this facility you see behind me it's one of several that are in this region but this is one of the biggest and these are where some of these young boys anywhere between ten and eighteen years old or so have been many for several days as the is no zero tolerance immigration policy on asylum seekers has been in place here by the trump administration so the tension is attracting here the gabrial interesting thing about you know i don't know how big brownsville is maybe you can tell us but the sort of unwanted attention that this will be bringing to this part of the united states. you know listen this is

a border town that is used to. immigration questions always coming up here this is really the heart of the immigration debate here in this brownsville area because it's just right on the border with mexico this and this is bringing a lot of debate to the u.s. but a lot of people are saying this is a good debate because a lot of people are saying simply this should not be happening and why that audio that we just heard is so powerful and so impactful is because the u.s. government agencies are letting officials go into this building and they've even let some journalists go in but not allowing them to film not allowing them to talk to any of the kids or anything like that or even take photographs they're only showing lawmakers and even journalists that are allowed inside just the part they want them to see so this audio is impactful because it basically was leaked audio from some one of the facilities we're not sure which one it really gives you

a very raw sense of what it's like inside when you heard these children just crying out for their parents so it really was on their brownsville texas thank you for bats meanwhile for the north the white house isn't moving on it zero tolerance policy of separating children from their parents donald trump will be meeting with congressional republicans later on tuesday to discuss the issue of immigration but when the department of homeland security secretary was questioned by white house reporters she was unapologetic yes she says no. we now care for them we have high standards we give them meals we give them education we give them medical care there's videos there's t.v.'s and visited the detention centers myself that would be my answer to that myself. because to nielsen there has been prolific on social media as well long threads of tweets laying out this unequivocal position of just got a couple for you here this one we do not have a policy of separating families at the border period she said that two days ago she

also said we will not apologize for enforcing the laws passed by congress we are a nation of laws we are asking congress to change that will her choice of words is crucial here because yes she is admitting to the laws and has no issue in forcing them but remember in that first tweet she maintained there was no policy of separation by this administration there's also a vis which the if i can find it here we go it is something which sector needs and tweeted out as a it is a myth versus fact page from the department of homeland security's website again it says the myth is that they d.h. is has a policy to separate families at the border but further down we see there are circumstances where children will be separated they are when the familial relationship i can't be determine when the child may be at risk and this one i'm going to highlight here when the parent or legal guardian is referred for criminal prosecution that's the key one because the adults crossing the border are considered to be doing so

illegally they are being referred for criminal prosecution hence under those laws the children get taken away kimberly how can it live in washington d.c. been covering the story for us for a while now. let's talk first of all what donald trump is up to today going to talk to republican congressional members about all of this. yeah he's doing that at twenty one g.m.t. but before he even gets to capitol hill he's been tweeting very similar to the tweets we saw from the president just a day ago really doubling down on this policy saying despite the fact that there have been growing calls an outrage saying that the president's policies are violating international human rights laws he's saying that really dismissing those characterization saying that this is really what needs to happen if you don't like the laws that this administration is isn't forcing then what needs to happen is congress needs to change the law and that people must be arrested if they come into

the united states illegally so that's what the discussion is on capitol hill there are two immigration bills that do not have broad bipartisan support so the chances of them getting pushed through and actually becoming law are pretty slim but that's where the president is headed to try and continue this debate moving forward and we should point out the president is correct when he says that the laws need to be updated in fact this is something congress has been able to accomplish in almost two decades just a little bit on kristen nielsen as well campbell because i mentioned a lot of her tweets and we heard from her as well she was put up there in the white house briefing room i noticed she's becoming a very public face of this is her position at all tenuous or she got the full backing of her president. she has the full backing of the president and many republicans but there is a growing chorus of democrats high profile democrats including the top democratic congresswoman nancy pelosi as well as a democratic senator coming to harris who are calling for her resignation saying

that in fact that they get the accusation of human rights abuses that what these policies are doing is essentially deporting children that are not with their parents as young as four years old or separating them as young as four years old and essentially that the administration is lacking transparency and accountability going back to what gabriel is sondos said where there is a sort of a policy where people are allowed to go in and see these detention facilities but not film in any way so the public the argument is has the right to know is not getting the information it deserves and so that's why there is this growing outrage but also this demand for accountability that so far many of these democratic senators and other members of congress say simply is not being fulfilled kimberly thanks for the update can be how it gets in washington d.c. . don't trouble the only world leader grappling with the issue of immigration the french president among new mccrone has met the german chancellor angela merkel to

discuss reforms for the e.u. including immigration they just wrapped up a news conference they have agreed on the need to reduce the number of illegal refugees coming into europe mrs merkel also said there needs to be more stuff to help process migrants. believe the european union should be united in its approach for asylum seekers is dominant kane's covering this one in berlin for us that's the key isn't it dominate trying to find a united front in europe it's pretty difficult these days. yeah very difficult indeed given the fact that this was a bilateral meeting between the head of government here in germany the head of state in france and their cabinets and over the course of several hours they were thrashing out the issues not just on terms of migration but also the other issues that concern the year of the the e.u. and one thing they have announced is a new budget for the eurozone to stimulate growth and to encourage economic convergence in the nineteen europe states but on the issue of migration as you

alluded to there kemal well the language the rhetoric the sorts of words being used by anger the americans suggest a slight change in her tone because obviously the issue here in germany has been with her ally with her political ally the christian social union from the various who really want to have to to to really drill down on the numbers of people who come to germany claim asylum here but he claimed asylum first somewhere else in the e.u. that's the issue they want to be dealt with i'm going to merkel's changing her tone she started talking the sorts of language that would like hate people with the sort of point of view that the christian social union has and that was something that president michel spoke about as well again referencing to this dublin three regulation regulation that governs these these people mainly in solomon in two countries what's interesting is the sort of language we heard from these two heads of government heads of state is the sort of language that's in this document i have here which refers it is

a document that purports to come from the council of ministers of the you which purports to be the sort of draft conclusions that might emerge from the e.u. summit coming up in brussels at the end of next week well the point to make here is that as i say the language in this document the kind of language we heard today from my car match because it does seem to indicate that there is a move at least tentatively that is towards the sorts of measures but the junior partner in this coalition here in germany has been calling for for the best part of two weeks. dominic keynes live in berlin thank you dominic we must spain's interior minister says e.u. leaders must also find a humane way to deal with immigrants for an underground says this shouldn't be a choice between humanity and security more than fifteen hundred migrants have tried to cross from africa to spain in the past few days the largest single influx to the area in four years within six hundred migrants arrived in the spanish port

of valencia as well on sunday after their ship you'll remember was turned away from italy and from malta here is called pen hole he is in almaty here on the southern coast of spain we until this point call i would say haven't really heard much about immigration into spain it's all been obviously focused on places like italy and greece how is spain coping i guess with with this coming into the spotlight in and their way of dealing with it you're absolutely right and it's something that surprised the spanish or stories here at the leading edge here in the port of our maria for example they were talking to us earlier on about how surprised they were that all the talk over the weekend was about six hundred twenty nine migrants coming up into spain off to italy closed their ports and they said well in the same time that you guys were talking about the aquarius and the landsea fifteen hundred migrants and refugees

were plucked from the sea here and now maria and at several points a little further south. of course not all of the made it is still looking for possibly forty five bodies of migrants out there off to warn them of these rickety fishing vessels known as the terrace collapsed they say that the problem of undocumented migration here in southern spain is something that happens every day why is spain such a frontline state well this is essentially the front center of the medal of the western mediterranean route as it's called don't forget that just south of almeria about one hundred sixty kilometers is the northern coast of morocco if you go further down the coast down to the straits of gibraltar that distance is just about fifteen kilometers so it is very tempting for people in north africa to set sail and essentially they're putting to sea in small boats that have small engines they don't need to get across the marine rescue authorities say in some cases they don't

even have enough gasoline to power those boats as far as far as the spanish coast but they are once again relying on the spanish authorities being alert and putting to sea in their rescue vessels and hauling them in that is exactly what has been happening today it must be said that it's been a quiet day but yesterday you now maria and just a little further south they pulled two hundred forty five people out of the water come out extraordinary stuff come panel thank you for that update from spain so who wants the migrants rescued from the mediterranean sea it is perhaps the central question aside from of course improving lives so that people don't attempt a crossing in the first place but for europe it's proving a tough question to answer as you've heard from dominant and from karl the inside story tonight a crackdown you can watch that edition hosted by elizabeth purana by heading to the shows section and on to zero dot com posted just a couple of days ago. by the way to morrow wednesday june twenty is world refugee

day and there are now more refugees in the world today than ever before the latest u.n. refugee agency reported found more than sixty eight and a half million people are displaced worldwide hit is million homes with a closer look at the numbers every two seconds a person is forced from their home over a day that's forty four and a half thousand people over a year more than sixty million this is the u.n. figure for newly displaced people in two thousand and seventeen the un's refugee agency says it's part of a worrying upward trend a number that's risen every year for the last five years and is fueled by war violence and persecution crises like those in the democratic republic of congo war in south sudan the hundreds of thousands of muslim or head injury flooding into bangladesh from neighboring me and most of them a children fifty three percent of the world's displaced and often unaccompanied or

separated from their families one in every one hundred ten people is a refugee internally displaced or seeking asylum that adds up to more than sixty eight and a half million people to put that in perspective of the world's refugees for a single nation that roughly equal the population of the united kingdom and in the time of being talking at least thirty four people more than half of them children have been forced from their homes. just a quick look at some of your comments and questions before we hit the break rhonda who's watching on facebook live or said thank you for the story that's the spine migrant story with col hole thank you for the story will probably never never hear about it on us media. has plenty of other stuff going on in the u.s. at the moment of course and in fact a lot of you have been commenting on that the situation with the border migration in the united states and a theme i'm seeing a lot through here elizabeth on facebook live saying this has to be

a violation of international law francoise said it's a violation of human rights the international court needs to get involved i think the problem here and as you have heard from kimberly is that it is all to do with u.s. laws at the moment it is about people crossing into that country it is about their laws and there is an admission of those laws do need to be updated all reviewed but of course you get the political breakdown of who's going to do that who's stopping him from doing it and all the while it is the children being separated from their parents at the border and of course we heard that they said thank you for your comments coming in there plenty of people yes florence saying these children will be traumatized forever and you heard some of that again and that was well didn't you do keep them coming and hashtag a j news good twitter facebook whatsapp telegram anything else you can think of this is the news good if you're with us on facebook live our friends from a.j. plus we got a little bonus story for you nonce about why this summer and actually from many summers to come heat waves will likely be the new and then later hooked on video games a new health warning for people who spend all of their time every day playing on i

be trapped in a downward tit for tat spiral and the markets don't like it the shanghai index on shoes day closing down almost four percent although the falls in the rest of asia weren't quite as sharp that said there does now really appear to be a growing realisation that we are in fact on the verge of an all out trade war between the world's two largest economies now on tuesday the language coming from china's government was much stronger the commerce ministry accused washington of blackmail the foreign ministry said that the united states was harming the interests not just of china but also the rest of the world a spokesman saying that while china did not want a trade war it was quite prepared to fight what now at the moment china exports far more to the united states than the other way around that means that the u.s. has far more potential terrorist targets than china does but it's quite possible

that china could stop punishing washington in other ways by focusing on big u.s. companies based here in china now at the moment president trump appears to be saying to the chinese government i want you to change the way that you can talk business with the united states that means possibly president cheating thing having to roll back his made in china twenty twenty five strategy this is one of his pet projects to move china up the value chain by focusing much more on high tech but china has absolutely no intention of doing that so given we have just seventeen days before the first of these tariffs are jus to kick in it's fair to assume that the chances of a negotiated settlement now are very slim indeed because china has no intention of giving up on that china twenty twenty five strategy. the north korean leaders in china are just a week after his historic summit with the u.s.

twenty six year old to the long gee who was convicted and sentenced to death for a two thousand and twelve murder obviously rights groups are very concerned about this development and they're also worried about the wording in the statement issued by the corrections department following this execution it says that many countries in the world still have the death penalty it singles out thailand of course but as well china and the united states countries the corrections department says that prioritize the protection of the public rather than the rights and freedoms of the wrongdoer and the statement from the corrections department goes on to say that it hopes this execution serves as a lesson to anyone thinking of carrying out or committing a serious crime but what it does not answer is why now particularly when the government had been working towards abolishing the death penalty altogether. the malaysian prime minister says investigators are looking to file multiple corruption

even be more lucrative for insurance companies and health care providers now that gaming addiction is considered a mental health disorder. on al-jazeera. were haleigh i'll get you to pick up on this one because i'm still a bit busy thanks to you wouldn't mind. this is different there's more than this isn't picking up an i pad our a games console yeah there's a lot of you that's a story for let's explain a little bit more now as pool has also reported in his pace a gaming addiction is a problem so much so that the wall how tokenization now says that it requires tracking but how does it happen while my colleague and noni tried on saying that question by looking at some of the latest trends and also the perceptions that we have about gaming and most addictions begin with poor impulse control or simply just not knowing. how much is enough and that can get tricky nowadays most games come with an additional game of chance what's known as loot boxing and you can buy

these boxes using real money and they can present you with a chance to win an advantage over other players you can also lose by getting the same items over and over again and with others you can exchange prizes back for real money now if this all sounds like gambling well that is because it is research as in new zealand have found that majority of it books systems that the same psychological and structural criteria for gambling the lawmakers have raised concerns that in the past two years through boxes have been incorporated in more games than in the past decade and that's why countries like belgium have officially declared boxes as gambling and therefore making it illegal in the united states it's looking to introduce bills that restrict access for younger players but in the u.k. the gambling industry is still are unsure about how to address this issue now the gaming industry is known to make more revenue than the film and music industry

combined and this doesn't create things like gaming merchandise and also accessories and rather than aspiring to become rich and famous a lot of young people are turning to science like twitch where thousands of people can watch a game of play and even pay him or her for doing so. and while we tend to look at gaming addictions as a problem for young people it seems that parents are not safe back in twenty ten a korean couple was arrested for starving their child to death while they raised a virtual child child in the role playing game of prius online and then you also have another story in california where a couple was convicted of locking up two children five and ten years old and then unsanitary trailer for three years so they could play while the four croft or if you are a gamer or parents or even both let us know what you think of the story connect this use the hash tag eight and his great thanks for haleigh not to hate more bad

of course all the focus will be on mohammed salah and whether or not he is fit enough supply still recovering it seems from the shoulder injury he picked up playing for liverpool in the champions league final against real madrid he was on the bench for the opening defeat against your aquatic clearly wasn't fit enough to play an active role and it's really hard to overstate just how important he is to this team egypt have never won a game at a world cup silent would love to play a role in putting that bit of history right to talk more on that let's go to avoid terence who joins us now from the fan zone in moscow what's the mood like ahead of this game when i have to say russia is now a country that is daring to dream after it's in static when the first match of this well caught something saudi arabia five mil it's had a pretty poor run of performances up until the beginning of the world cup but that
