thanks very much indeed for coming in so this mission of the envoy martin griffiths why do you think it came he left empty handed. he went on saturday as reported he left today i think he. told the. to the or to the either. to the government or to the united nations i think specifically to the united nations management they frankly refused to and they announce today that he left with. empty hands today. he said that he normally makes a live press conference by both in the court of sanaa but today he left without even any press conference that's a sign a big sign that this diplomatic mission is you picking up on that he said you see your theory is that his suggestion was that the who she should accept a u.n. kind of taking control of her data rather than having. the coalition and and the

more they get over this was the plan they were and plan which we're which was made by the former boy with the sheer smile would share and he took this plan yesterday so he saw her own. they obviously refuse that. he mentioned today that he hopes to bring all parties to go to our around the negotiating table by next month and how likely is that given what we've seen given the fighting is can to intensify essentially around today to and this seems to be no sign of either side backing down i think we are we have in a long distance to the political solution peaceful solution because of what's going on now the government is in a good position in who they are weak in the if you can weaken her data and sometimes when the weakest party feels we it gives them some sort of no we don't want to do negotiation week so until we are like improving our position on

the ground so that we can have a very strong position in the initiation so how critical is it for the who feasts to keep the date i mean if they were to lose it what would it mean for them in terms of the war in yemen more generally because it means of thing they have a lot of. financial support from what is the main port in this in the country monti percent. the supply goes to the country through this important call. it supported. like. women's and open smuggling smuggling goes through this port. it is very important for them because it's the main port in yemen and and ninety percent of the trade trade goes to yemen and from outside them and it goes from this port. in addition to the fact that what they did is the last important position the last important city by the red sea called

in the hand of the host is so if they lose them then that means that where they will leave the whole course the whole more than three hundred kilometers on the course of that it's a hundred men thank you very much indeed for your income your information thank you very much. for u.s. president donald trump has been digging in amid mounting criticism over his administration's policy of separating migrant children from their parents at the border we want to solve this problem we want to solve family separation i don't want children taken away from parents and when you prosecute the parents for coming in illegally which should happen you have to take the children away now we don't have to prosecute them but then we're not prosecuting them for coming in illegally that's not. we want to and the border crisis by finally giving us the legal authority and the resources to detain and remove

illegal immigrant families altogether and bring them back to their country we have to bring him back to. pro publica an investigative journalism organization has managed to record disturbing children from inside detention centers where you can clearly hear their distress. there are some. people who are in some way. undercover for money and i think the. public generally on the. things that they call them. and we'll come back. to pro publica has also managed to record the mocking response of a border patrol agent.

whether they're for mental health care. and. let's go live to the who's in brownsville texas outside a former wal-mart store now being used to house migrant children. what happens inside there. yeah this is a former wal-mart supercenter as they call here behind me a massive massive structure that now is a place that is a shelter is what the government likes to call it critics like to use a different word and they say that it's not anything like a shelter it's almost like a prison in a way there are about fifteen hundred young migrant boys in this building behind me between the ages of roughly eight to ten years old all the way up to teenagers eighteen in one thousand years old out of the fifteen hundred that are inside this

building being detained there there are about one hundred ten that have been separated from their parents after crossing the border in the last couple weeks or so and this is where the real crisis is that now inside the building journalists have been allowed to go inside but not able to film or take any pictures it's basically big rooms with a beds and games for children to play in t.v.'s and what have you and so that's where the government says that the conditions are pretty good that's what they say but the fact remains is the children are away from their parents and not able to leave and that's where you get the real crisis that we're seeing right now here on the southern border of the u.s. this is just one of several facilities that are like this but two in here brownsville in another city macallan texas about an hour away that government says going no sign of backing down on this so-called zero tolerance policy and so now they're looking at potential other sites to open more facilities just like this to

hold more children that are being taken away from their parents and game but brownsville very much on the front lines of this story how are they reacting to the attention again that. yeah it really is we're just on the other side of the mexican border is just a few kilometers away from where i'm at now and i'll tell you we spoke to so many people in town just a few minutes ago quite cross section of people and clearly more than half of who we spoke to said they were heartbroken by what they were seeing here they were heartbroken that this negative attention has come to their town but really people just sad to see children taken away from their parents but there was some other people that while they were sad saying that laws need to be enforced and this is where everyone said it's a complicated issue much more complicated than a lot of people seem to indicate they say you know it's complicated and it's not as easy as just simple yes or no to these problems but everyone does agree that this is reached a crisis situation now and something needs to be done everything is on to thank you

very much indeed mexico's foreign minister has added his voice to those condemning the u.s. policy. you know. i would like to express in the name of the people and government of mexico our most categorical and energetic condemnation of what is a cruel and inhuman policy mexico fully recognizes the united states' sovereignty and its capacity to decide its own way of dealing with immigration the mexican government does not in any way promote illegal immigration however we cannot be indifferent to what clearly represents a violation of human rights and can put children including disabled children in situations of danger and vulnerability. one of two terminals set on fire during clashes in the libyan puerto ruster new has collapsed it's been the damage could

wide deal although i'll take action to reverse her open door policy on refugees. but your view of yes some of those migration is a common challenge and the reasons for migration have to be removed we need to work towards peace in countries that are involved in war like syria and even ukraine we also need to help with development aid for african countries we need to act in a coordinated fashion that is often very difficult our goal is for a common approach in europe we do not want europe to be divided international organization for migration as the number of people are the crossing the mediterranean to europe or dying on the way is sharply down over the last few months forty thousand people have made the journey so far this year compared to double that same period in twenty seventeen the numbers trying to cross to spain to shop the op called pan who has more from our area on the southeast coast. we're here in the control room of spain's marine rescue center in the port of ameria and

personnel here in front of screens in a radar are on high alert for the possible arrival of more refugees and migrants aboard these rickety fishing vessels they call pâté others now if you look out that way that's one hundred miles or one hundred sixty kilometers to the coast of morocco and that is from where in the last four days fifteen hundred refugees and migrants have headed towards both our maria and points further south personnel here say that they have seen nothing like it that level of arrivals in such a short period of time is really putting them under pressure already figures this year are twice as high as at the same period last year what generally happens in this control room is that they will get their first alert perhaps by telephone perhaps by radio from an ngo from another vessel or directly from the potato

itself and they will call and say they are in distress from here they make a call to helicopter a helicopter will be up into the air searching the area trying to locate the migrant vessel and then from there the characteristic orange search and rescue vessels will head out trying to locate and pick up those migrants and refugees and bring them back here to shore over the weekend personnel here say that there was a ship wreck they managed to pluck four survivors from the sea but they say that somewhere out there there is still at least forty bodies of migrants and refugees that simply didn't make it war violence and persecution have forced more people to become refugees than ever before the latest u.n. refugee agency report finds more than sixty eight and a half million people are displaced worldwide as of last year is marion haunt 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 un 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 hinge are flooding into bangladesh from neighboring me and mom most of them 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 wallets week to you next year as the new york director nanette kelly thanks for much needed for being with us some frightening figures there specially to do with with children what kind of measures do you want to see to try to reduce the need for people to have to move like this. well there is two obvious choices one is to resolve the conflicts that cause so many people to have to flee their homes in this is something that we've seen sadly lacking is the political wherewith all to bring those solutions to bear and failing that we need to look at supporting the countries that are the first responders to refugees over eighty five percent of all refugees and other forcibly displaced persons are in low and middle income countries and they need much more support in order to be able to provide not just lay stephen support to refugees but also to

provide for better opportunities for refugees in the communities in which refugees reside yes clearly as you say it's very often the poorer countries that have the having most of these refuse to deal with whereas the kind of larger richer come countries are making the most noise about having a problem out there but but but in terms of what they're doing all their particular countries where they are getting it right with how they deal with the influx of refugees is there any way that you can point to and say but that's that's how we ought to be doing it. you know there is wonderful examples all over the world in fact if you look at uganda which is the largest refugee hosting area country in all of africa they visit they've accepted more than a million refugees in a country that is one of the poorest countries in the world and yet they still find it within there are their policies to provide land to refugees to allow them to be

educated to to be employed in these are the kinds of examples which really we should be looking to not just looking to as examples but also supporting very tangibly in terms of development assistance and humanitarian assistance that countries like uganda so badly need and on that i mean you mention the fact that people can can work there and can be educated very often when people are refugees they're not allowed to work is that something that you're working to change we are and we in fact not just us but in two thousand and sixteen the general assembly adopted a new way of responding to refugees and large movements of refugees which is precisely an approach that tries to go beyond immediate assistance in provide investments in human capitals for education in self-reliance that allow refugees not just to contribute to the communities in which the have sought safety but also to help

rebuild lives so that they are able to return home when the time comes and rebuild their countries when conflict ends and it kelly from you and i thank you very much indeed for your force i'm sorry thank you thank you. reports from nicaragua gunfire in messiah as government forces try to retake control of the city from opposition supporters who say they are rebelling against the president daniel ortega and you're a reporter joins us live from the capital and i go where reports of clashes in nicaragua today what's what's been happening there. well the nicaraguan human rights association has confirmed at least three people have been killed just today in these clashes that are taking place in messiah more than thirty six others are reportedly wounded messiahs a town that's about forty five minutes away from the capital managua where we are now and it's become a sort of capital of this resistance against the government of president messiah is

where a majority of the much of this island's has been concentrated over the course of the last few weeks and we've been speaking to her medical professionals one volunteer doctor who tells us that these attacks and these clashes began sometime around seven am this morning when paramilitary forces began to arrive in the city and fire live ammunition against anti-government demonstrators as well as the civilian population at messiah is traditionally a tourist town it's a very quiet place it's more of a residential area over anything else but if you look at the town right now all of the roads leading to messiah are are barricaded they're closed off the streets are empty people are hiding in their homes a lot of the men in the town are outside hiding behind the barricades using homemade homemade weapons homemade mortars using rocks to keep those paramilitary forces at a distance messiah right now is completely on on on

a national on a national strike so there's no commerce the streets are empty access to the public hospitals is practically nonexistent at the moment but there are volunteer doctors who are treating the wounded they're treating both wounded demonstrators as well as wounded police officers but we've heard from residents of the city that they're running out of food they're running out of water and the the idea is that if there if there isn't some sort of peaceful outcome to this right now and the anticipation is that this situation as actually going to get worse this evening as they lose the daylight hours but without. an independent investigation without some sort of international observers coming in to make it i wanted to take a look at this ongoing political crisis or observation the general expectation is that this this crisis is still going to drag on for the long run. thank you very much indeed still to come on this news hour from london global stocks slide

. a few months. stock markets in asia and europe have taken a hit as fears escalate over a trade war between the u.s. and china on monday night the u.s. president threatened beijing with tariffs on an additional two hundred billion dollars worth of chinese goods donald trump says it's retaliation for china stopping terrorists on fifty billion dollars of imports from the u.s. beijing responded saying it would strike back hard at trying to correspond adrian brown has more from beijing. well both beijing and washington do appear to 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 start 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 due 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 leader kim jong un is in china just a week after his historic meeting with u.s. president donald trump came met chinese president xi jinping in beijing is third trip since march according to chinese state television kim briefed president xi on his meeting with trump and the pair agreed to push for peace on the korean peninsula china is north korea's largest and closest ally in the world human rights watch says more than a thousand villages in northeastern mozambique have been left homeless by

return home with al-jazeera. according to unicef more than a thousand children in south sudan were sexually assaulted during the first three years of the conflict there and around seventy two percent of women living in so-called protected sites in the capital juba say they've been raped mostly by police and soldiers even morgan spoke to one of the victims. selling firewood is a lifeline for. it's the only commodity to sustain herself and her five children the twenty seven year old is one of the forty thousand displaced persons in this united nations camp but collecting firewood outside the camp can be dangerous. we were a group of women and went to collect firewood outside the camp five soldiers found us and we ran i fell and they pointed their guns at me and then raped me and left me when i came back to the camp and was too ashamed to get treatment. is one of

thousands of women in the camp who have been raped during the five year war since president salva kiir accused his former vice president riek machar of attempting a groom thousands have been killed and four million displaced that's a third of the population. although thousands of women have reported rape and other sexual atrocities in south sudan's war rights organizations say the figure is likely much higher that's because many don't report out of fear many children have been sexually assaulted to nearly all wearing sides in south sudan's conflicts have been accused of committing sexual violence the african union and the u.n. say the attacks in some cases amount to crimes against humanity there's a massive program of violence. displaced people themselves as well as those who are subject to atrocious levels of sexual exploitation and abuse and killings are rampant. al-jazeera received no response when we asked army commanders for comment

despite the risks says she'll continue to venture out of the camp in search of firewood and along with the thousands of other victims of sexual violence she hopes that one day she will get justice for the crimes committed against her people morgan al-jazeera. a court in kenya has struck down an attempt by local doctors to block the government from recruiting one hundred medical professionals from cuba the kenyan doctors say the cuban medics are being paid more than them the government however says the new recruits a needed to keep state hospitals running reference or reports from the capital nairobi. these are kenya's new government doctors cuban medical specialists will be deployed to some of the country's most and a stuffed and ill equipped public hospitals. local doctors are angry one to get action saying the process was flawed and adding there are almost two hundred

specialists in kenya who are unemployed and even those in work and not being paid as much as the cubans kind as you're speaking they have there in this country the question the argue is that is about numbers that is why we may not but hundred doctors cannot help the whole process that is true but what we are seeing in the process of hiring these doctors at higher skill or salary it is because if two doctors. the decision to hire foreign doctors stems from the government's frustration over frequent doctors strikes including one last year that lasted four hundred days and cost major disruption to services in public hospitals. george muti so struggles to get the specialized care he needs he often has to travel from his rural home to this hospital on the outskirts of the capital he told us it has taken him four days to see a specialist the situation is worse in with he says hometown some rural hospitals

have not had a specialist in years the doctor patient ration the country is one to seven and a half thousand that's seven times more than the w. heechul recommendation of one to a thousand. or more are not a member. but. one. system you know where. the court has dismissed the case by the doctor to block the hiring of the passion is from the doctor things that he's going to feel some kenyans are happy with the new arrival they say that patients. who can only afford public health care they need all the help they can get but they also know that this doctors need adequate medical supplies and probably meant to be able to do their jobs well cathy zoi al jazeera nairobi. the world health organization has added addiction to video games to its latest list of diseases doctors now

recognize persistent and compulsive gaming behavior as a mental health disorder they say can result in plaza forgetting about other important parts of life such as eating and sleeping well try to jan has more. in this virtual universe made up of zeros and ones dense purple storm clouds shroud the planet ninety eight percent of the world's population has disappeared and zombies rise to attack remaining humans it's very fast paced to keep you engaged the whole. so much fun that the mass online phenomenon called fortnight is consuming hundreds of millions of players around the world while the goal of the game is to battle for the survival of humanity some people's fragile psyche may not survive these all consuming digital games. we have been reviewing evidence for the gaming behavior disorder for the last several years.

the world health organization's decision to label addiction to digital and video games as a mental health disorder puts it at odds with gaming industry organizations it's reference guide of recognized and diagnosable diseases describes the addiction as a pattern of persistent or recurrent gaming behavior that becomes so extensive it takes precedence over other life interests the question whose is going through or over the gaming and ignores other things in activities like like eating like. education or and and that harms the person and in spite of the harm that wasn't continues the. parents have been concerned about the endless hours their children have spent in front of the console's since the advent of atari and pong now they have signs as their weapon to limit the time their children spend gaming the w.h.o.

says only a small number of people who play digital and video games would develop a mental health disorder but early warning signs can help prevent it and while the makers of fortnight are expected to earn more than four billion dollars this year addiction to gaming the screen getting much gaming addiction treatment programs which may even be more lucrative for insurance companies and health care providers now that gaming addiction is considered a mental health disorder. paul george on al-jazeera. joining me via skype is marcos an associate professor in psychology at middlesex university who specializes in the impact of video games i say being with us how serious would you say that gaming addiction is as a problem. well prevalence rates are actually very tricky to tone it down in some of the estimates that we have worldwide vary tremendously from as low as one percent or less to maybe fifteen or even twenty percent or higher so it's really

kind of characteristic of the research as a whole in this area that is a lot of very early stage and we don't have a very really fledged understanding of what this phenomenal might be so what do you make of the w.h.s. decision to name it in this way as a disease if it to me i think is the reproachful i think as i said the evidence is still a little bit arms. crossed in five years' time we may have sufficient evidence that we're prepared to classify gaming disorder should be classified to gaming disorder as a separate disorder where he is too early i think there are also several other quite serious problems with her we're treating this as a separate disorder that make this we're all the sort of each session to tell me about the video games themselves and what the characteristics are that make them so well quote addictive. well thing is i mean i should be clear that anything that you do and enjoy is is something which can be abused which you can become addicted to no course one of the things about games is that designing to make us play that

designed for us to enjoy them for us to have run in a such service of psychological tricks the game designers use i think one of the interesting things is that one of the reasons why games are so popular is that they actually turn into some fundamental human motivations some of the reasons we enjoy life and one of my very serious concerns is that if we start treating people gaming disorder we quite possibly take them away from the gaming and bottom of what we will find is there some things that games were satisfying in their lives well they're missing amanda worse off than they were before so so what kind of traits i mean but the new aspect that they mustn't identify people for whom it really has become a problem that never they are not managing to cope with a one way life because they say locked into this other world what kind of traits would someone display who actually is addicted to these things. well i think one of the things that the. classification looks at is a very serious impediment to all sorts of different aspects of everyday living

there's nothing specific there's nothing absolutely specific that could be identified as sort of a magic bullet so there's no very clear diagnostic pattern of behavior at all and so they were reasonably clear this has to be something which is going to be for at least twelve months the the disorder such as is rather nebulous just how badly are extended time based before you can actually receive a diagnosis i think one of the concerns is that we're now sort of ticking really the i.c.j. we released four million a year or so it's time now i can imagine of data point an awful lot of people subsequently being darkness again to sort out what about there the in this and been a lot of anxiety about what effect these games or use of this kind of thing can have on children in particular would you say that you've seen kind of bad effects of these things doing it will evidence that they can be harmful now other things and i think whenever this is from our in legislative environment service the challenge in the courts has been defeated the link between the kinds of things that
