12:10 am
talks between south sudan's government and opposition have broken down following two days of closed door meetings in ethiopia new dates have been set for more talks but the differences between the warring sides suggest that a deal will be difficult to achieve even morgan as this. it was their first meeting in nearly two years when president salva kiir and opposition leader rick machar last met in south sudan's capital juba the talks ended in failure and renewed fighting between the sides this meeting a neutral ground offered hope of a breakthrough in the conflict but it broke up without any agreement after two days there is no. i or how. this tragic humanitarian crisis after or how many arguments. before. the journey that we have is delivering on the commitment to us and. in those
12:11 am
agreements the children who have been having is one of leadership and political will. the civil war in faster than began in twenty thirteen when president accused his then deputy my char of attempting to kill tens of thousands of people have been killed and a third of the country's twelve million population has been displaced a peace deal in ten to fifteen so much our return to his position but that lasted for barely three months before fighting resumed now machar as opposition leader is demanding a return to his post and with his own army south sudan's government says working with him is not an option we are no longer as a government for the two armies the opposition are for the two armies and this is not a supplement this is a red line to the government as the people of south sudan not the president alone but other people are saying enough is enough and if he wants to be the president he should wait for elections seven million people in south sudan are facing starvation
12:12 am
after five years of conflict they are desperate for peace but each new round of talks doesn't appear to be bringing back any closer. people morgan al-jazeera. from the back to daryn in the. thank you very much where protests are underway at the border front separating gaza and israel tensions have soared there since mass protests began on march the thirtieth house than ian's are trying to draw attention to the illegal occupation by israel and its blockade of the gaza strip there also protesting the move of the us embassy to jerusalem at least one hundred thirty three palestinians have been killed by live israeli fire during the weeks of demonstrations there been no israeli fate teletubbies out of there as harry fawcett joining us from gaza itself as a receiving there have been palestinian casualties and fatalities harry what is the scene today. yes one more friday of pretty
12:13 am
sizable protest here just east of gaza city and again we've seen tear gas we've seen life i used by the israeli side and receive a number of people being taken away and i'm going to says injured also in the last five or ten minutes or so we saw two small explosions seem to take place just inside israeli territory on the other side of the fence there are hundreds of people here we would told that after the afternoon pres of the mosques they would be bussed here again and they've come in the hundreds and just now you can see a new group arriving bearing colored balloons and chanting what we. are yes sorry go ahead sir. sorry and so yes the people just arrived as i say with colored balloons another what sounded like another round of live fire then and what we've been hearing from senior hamas officials is that
12:14 am
these friday process what they say is the new tactic of peaceful protest will continue until something achievable on something tangible is achieved by them i asked them what that would mean and one senior hamas advisor said it simply means the lifting of the siege and this of course all follows what took place overnight on tuesday earlier this week with another round of life either. on tuesday earlier this week when we saw what was a very extensive exchange between rockets and mortar fire being fired from gaza in territory and a response from israeli air force of some twenty five thousand five. hundred targets being struck this is probably the most extended volley of live fire that we've had for some time on this day's protest you can see that the tactics remain as they have throughout these many weeks now that the israelis are happy to use
12:15 am
live fire on protesters ok harriet we'll let you get out of the way we'll leave it there for now thank you for that update from gaza. well we're on facebook at facebook dot com slash al-jazeera we're also on twitter our handle is at a.j. inglis use the hash tag a.j. news great we're also on a whatsapp or telegram a plus nine seventy four five zero triple one one four nine so these are all the ways that you can get in touch with us here at the news grid keep your comments questions coming to us here now the world's largest oil producing countries have agreed to increase output by a million barrels a day a move that will likely push down the price of oil now saudi arabia and russia opec to relax tight control so they can produce more but iran and venezuela oppose the limits on production have nearly tripled the price of oil since two thousand and sixteen so how much opec members get for their oil doesn't matter venezuela and
12:16 am
iran for example are under enormous pressure economically they need as much as they can get whereas other nations like saudi arabia and some gulf ones appear to have weathered the storm six a closer look at how they're faring so oil is trading at around seventy four dollars a barrel at the moment at its peak ten years ago it costs more than one hundred forty seven dollars but that price then nosedive two years ago to twenty six dollars a barrel that was great news for a people filling up their cars or heating their homes but it hurt oil producing countries none of them were making enough to cover their costs venezuela for example needed one hundred eleven dollars a barrel to breakeven saudi arabia needed one thousand three dollars but as the price of oil slowly creeps back up saudi arabia and others in the gulf have been working to bring their break even price down through spending cuts and ditching
12:17 am
subsidies saudi arabia now needs just seventy dollars to breakeven and it now has the green light to increase production paul brennan joining us covering this story for us out of vienna so was this decision expected paul. well it was hoped for but coming into this meeting at opec which q. there was a threat of an iranian veto in the air the very real prospect of a deep rift forming between members of the opec bloc what they've managed to do though is find a rather elegant solution to answer both sides of it i mean saudi arabia and russia wanted an increase in oil production of as much as one point eight million barrels a day iran was out of and the opposed to that insisting that the existing cap on production the limits should stay in place until the end of the year as originally agreed what they've been able to do is square that circle and reconcile those two items the reason why is because of the uncertainty in the volatility in the oil
12:18 am
markets venezuela for example has seen its oil production hit very hard indeed iran has the prospect of u.s. sanctions coming into force very soon on the estimates of the last of the global market was around one point five million dollars sorry million barrels a day now so to maintain the status quo the existing cap on production meant actually opening the taps a little bit to balance the two sides and that's basically what they've done the difficulty is all to the devil is going to be in the details who benefits most which country is going to be allowed to increase its production which country is not in a position to and we heard from the president of the opec commission who was reluctant to give details and he gave a very candid admission as to why the senate in for those countries that. are struggling with their wood said can with ten to ten would keeping their their live in a production to go and allocate an increase to those countries if that would have
12:19 am
been something that is challenging and that's why we targeted as a group the top number not an individual and individual countries in kitty's. the opec plus group of nations meets tomorrow saturday here in vienna that's an expanded group more than the fifteen who are currently members of opec that congo just admits as a member on the in the expanded group you've got russia now obviously there's going to be some tough negotiations as to how big a bite of the pie russia can get as the expansion in oil production goes on alright paul brennan giving us the update from vienna frank you well paul is filing reports online like this one you'll see it right there in a moment political tensions loom over critical opec meeting will iran agree to saudi and russia's call to lift well production so paul is keeping us right across the elements you'll find his stories online on al-jazeera dot com well if you're
12:20 am
with us on facebook why coming up for you is the story of morocco's nomadic tribes for growing some traditions to offer their children formal education and coming up on the news great a grim warning from the u.n. but yemen's war is putting a hundred thousand children at risk details in just a moment. how the showers in georgia and turkey are becoming a lot lighter this to rhyme but that's the only relief from the heat now typically come to the south of that and it's just a breeze so we're high twenty's on the coast the mediterranean high thirty's inland in iraq and in most of iran of course is a federal breeze which is quite a dusty one running as far as iraq security and beyond on the gulf it's
12:21 am
a fairly strong doesn't change the temps you very much just brings the dust in through riyadh across two was bothering you think it would go all the way south if that's the southwest monsoon affects the amani coast and we just started to her before she was probably be in iraq move more in the night for the next two three months which means cloudy drizzly stuff particularly in salalah the lower temperature in southern africa should be drawing and fine and to be honest this is a satellite picture you're looking at spot the clouds there all that many so for cost wise you'd expect not much change and you'd be right by day he's breezy in the western cape cape town sixteen degrees temperatures typically in the low twenty's at best buy sunny day now there is a possibility of some writing rain returning to the western cape but you know it's it's a very small about if anything at all. on

12:25 am
capital thanks very much for speaking to us what are you hearing about the situation right now in her day the in terms of people's humanitarian needs a week after the assault the fighting has begun who dated even before the fighting started was one of the areas the most impacted in all of in terms of the humanitarian crisis twenty five percent the children in your data are malnourished now that the fighting has begun in the city we are deeply concerned about the increased impact on civilians and most particularly on children this is why we are or that if the finding continues if these enters the center of the city we could be looking in a prolonged or case at literally tens of thousands of children who could be hurt and in fact what can you tell us about its ongoing cease fire negotiations led by the united nations and with stuff today the port would be
12:26 am
handed over to full u.n. control. the united nations special envoy has been discussing of arrangements with all of the parts of the conflict throughout the entire period this is hugely important for humanitarians we've been warning that if the port of who data is closed or not operational even for a very limited period of time the impact on civilians would be immediate and it would be dramatic it's very clear that the cost of this war has been enormous for civilians and this is why humanitarians are doing our very best now to support the people that have been impacted by the fighting to support the people that have been impacted by the crisis all of us hope that there is a political solution and that hostilities cease and how challenging has a been then for united nations workers to meet people's needs in her data as
12:27 am
well as other parts of human. before the fighting started there was a massive humanitarian program gaita every day for example united nations and our partners were delivering fifty thousand liters of safe drinking water the programs that we've been implementing there have been crucial for saving lives when the assault on the city started we knew that we had to prepare and that's fight for weeks we've been prepositioning supplies in the first week of fighting w f p world food program charged vessels that offloading food one vessel has just finished loading fifty thousand metric tons of food from the port itself we've been establishing humanitarian service points and we already been providing assistance to families that have been displaced by the fighting this past week and what about the situation in the rest of the country because we know that the humanitarian it's been called rather the world's worst humanitarian disaster. you're
12:28 am
absolutely right seventy five percent of the entire population of yemen require some form of systems and protection there is no other country in the world where a higher percentage of the population needs help this is why the united nations calls human the worst humanitarian crisis in the world and this is why humanitarians across the country are saying to all of the parties to the conflict it's time to find a solution the cost of the war has been enormous what happens if you don't get the money that you're asking for what's at stake we estimated that for this year the united nations and the front line partners would require billions of dollars in order to help the people now we're looking right at the moment at whether or not we're going to need additional requirements donors have been very generous for game but with the fighting with increased displacement
12:29 am
we have to face the fact that the needs are going to increase and the cost of the operation is also going to increase we're doing those calculations as we speak right ground i will leave it there we thank you very much for speaking to us on al-jazeera. now staying in yemen there is been a significant pro who see protests in the city of for data against the saudi in the military offensive the truth these have controlled for data since twenty fourteen when they swept across much of yemen forcing the event president into exile and gaining control of several cities the sodium erotic coalition backing the government is now fighting to retake it aiming especially to get control of the data is strategically important seaports so as you can see the grounds gathered to oppose the offensive and backed the rebels and still in yemen recent allegations have surfaced about the u.a.e. running hidden prisons where inmates suffer from human rights abuses our program

12:42 am
brazil defeated costa rica to no in the early kick off today that was thanks to goals in added time by felipe could senior and neymar let's go to moscow now where any richardson is standing by birdsall really lifted later today andy what can we say about that. well the worst some agitated faces amongst brazil fans were here in the moscow fan fest sites they were very nervous before the game kicks off their opening one one draw against switzerland not really the sort of stars anyone had been expecting in the large portions of this game looks to be the same again a very experienced costa rican sea taking in a lot of pressure from brazil who's only in the seventy seventh minute and things got a bit interesting neymar. won a penalty but no world cup game these days would be complete without a nice v.a.r. incidence the referee had another look at it and then decided to overturn its own
12:43 am
decision costa rica held on and so injury time and then we had those goals from philip that senior and neymar and that has completely changed the atmosphere around this brazil team bear in mind that seven one semifinal defeat against germany four years ago really did score brazil as a footballing nation and it may in some way explain the somewhat timid start made made to this competition but now after that when you sense that the nerves will have gone a little bit and brazil will as expected become real contenders to win this title are slim in the jury currently on the field goal is in the match for the whole of time how do you see that one finishing given the context of the group and not forgetting that argentina are featuring there as well. yeah of course argentina will be paying close interest is just just a half side now it's no male. a factor is worth pointing out perhaps nigeria five
12:44 am
hundred seventy seven times. or there was any richardson in a moscow will tend to him again later no doubt they was plenty of activity on twitter with some very high profile opinions on argentina's performance that n.d. and i were trying to discuss they or perhaps some might say lack of performance against croatia former england footballer gary lineker got more than thirty three thousand likes when he congratulated croatia and inspirational captain luca modish but he also says in all the years of watching argentina i cannot remember them ever having such a poor side former italy and ac milan defensive store ward franco but wait he is a man who argentina probably could have used against croatia but if he tweeted respect for argentina disaster some paoli in reference to argentina's coach was under intense pressure right now and the match was a hot topic on social media i want to show you this right now it's our heat map and

consequences. cannot use that as an excuse to go over human rights people in power travels to south america to discover the defiance of the chief. we have a news gathering team here that is second time out there all over the world and they do a fantastic job when information is coming in very quickly all at once you've got to be able to react to all of the changes and al-jazeera we adapt to that. my job is is to break it all down and we held the view i understand and make sense of it. china is one she province has become famous for its large number of elderly many aged one hundred or older one to one east investigates in the region all the
12:48 am
secrets to a long and healthy life one east on al-jazeera. al-jazeera where ever you. are quote the mother mother is reunited with her son after suing the u.s. government it's not clear how or when other families will be reunited. this is the world struggles to make sense of melania trump choice of jacket for her trip to meet child migrants.
12:49 am
i mean this is live from london also coming up in the program. the u.n. says the rule of law is virtually absent in venezuela with security forces carrying out hundreds of unjustified killings. the e.u. hits back at donald trump bringing into force retaliatory tariffs on levis harley davidsons and other u.s. goods. and malaysian recycling say plastic waste does not have to be a problem as a cash in on china's plastic important back. so then some of the migrant children separated from their parents at the u.s. mexican border in recent weeks have been reunited with their families this is quite small and mother was back with her young son at baltimore's a port on friday after more than a month apart she filed a lawsuit against the u.s.
12:50 am
government to get him back. i'm very happy to found my son i'm very happy and thankful especially to college i started crying when i saw him because he is the only son that i have nobody will separate of again i don't regret coming here i'm proud to have made it to this country well joe was head of the office for civil rights in the u.s. homeland security department under president obama she says there will be many logistical problems reuniting parents with their children. the kids don't know where their parents are the parents don't know where their kids are the names are not enough to identify people you need what's called an a number the kids in the parents don't know each others a numbers and what the advocacy community has done is jury rigged to system where the kids who are looking for parents somebody calls all of the laws of all
12:51 am
detention facilities and says is anybody looking for a kid named and then gives their name and somebody a nonprofit boy or tries to connect them it is a haphazard system and we will see in the next week if it succeeds at all but boy does it ever need a just a much more clear set of systems where the government itself is committed to reuniting these kids and that's not what the trumpet ministration has done when i speak straight away it's one of fisher's following the story in washington what is the administration saying about the number of families that have been reunited. well there saying there's about five hundred families that have been reunited but there still leaves least fifteen hundred more that have still to be reunited and as you've just outlined the difficulties are there there's also it's unclear whether the executive orders actually stop families being separated for the time being certainly we know that some border agents are no longer splitting up families but
12:52 am
they then don't know what's to happen next and the trump white house is decided that it's going to go to court to try and extend what's known as the florida's ruling which was essentially one a judge said look you can't keep children in detention for more than twenty days and if you do keep them in detention you've got to keep them in facilities that are appropriate for their age while the executive order didn't address that or toll so they've got to go to court and see if they can extend that so that they can hold the families together for illegally entering the u.s. for an extended period it's not clear whether that will actually happen and of course in the last few hours we'll hear from donald trump on twitter and he essentially seems to have drawn the carpet from under any idea that he wants to see an emigration bill despite saying just two days ago that no is the time for that to go ahead in terms of facilities for housing these families these children are there
12:53 am
are sufficient facilities about. not at the moment and certainly what we've seen at the border auld warehouses old stores have been converted the big box stores that you get in the united states have been converted so that they can handle the influx of people but if you're going to start keeping families together that all has to change as well and so what you need to do is start looking at military bases and certainly we're hearing from the pentagon that they think they can probably accommodate someone the region of twenty thousand families but obviously it will take work it will take time to put in the facilities that are needed there to process the people that are coming through to make sure that they have the facilities that they need including feeding them keeping them warm keeping them cool when it's in texas in the summer making sure that they've got sheriff a zealot is making sure that they can still get access to clean clothes this is a huge logistical nightmare and certainly there are those in the trumpet ministration who continue to insist the intention never was to split families apart
12:54 am
who did that comment come from it came from the attorney general jeff sessions who of course just more than a week ago was saying that it was in the bible that people should follow the rules of the government and the government was saying if you cross the border illegally then you run the risk of losing your children who are out and we'll leave it there thanks very much indeed and fisher reporting from washington d.c. . people online is still trying to make sense of many on the trump strange choice of clothing for a visit to a child detention center the first lady was photographed on thursday wearing a jacket that read i really don't care do you which many consider it inappropriate this is led to a flood of online responses including drawings like this one of lady liberty wearing a jacket that says we should all care well so popular was this edited version of this month's time magazine cover on the rights with the image of donald trump replaced by melania and fashion label while fang released this parody jacket to

clamping down on migration in germany the chancellor angela merkel has welcomed your rivals but she now faces pressure from within her own coalition to agree to strict e.u. wide controls dominate cain now has more from berlin. the meetings of donald tusk with leaders of austria and hungary are an attempt by the european union institutions and their leadership to get a sense of the view from what some people might consider on the immigration crisis side anyway to be the e.u. leaders the e.u. countries awkward squad the ones who don't fit in with the plans that angela merkel of germany and emmanuel mccann of france have to resolve the immigration situation across as in a panic e.u. sort of way let's be clear here mr tusk is speaking to people who have in some way shape or form change their constitutions change their laws or elected policies which they believe are
12:57 am
a way to deal with the crisis but which which have in fact either criminalized helping illegal immigrants or are putting real quotas on the numbers of people who can who can move around in those countries from angela merkel's perspective she had hoped that the mini summit on sunday coming and then the full summit in brussels at the end of next week would arrive at some sort of solution but now her officials are having to row back from that and say no no no sunday's mini summit is a working group don't expect any conclusions to come and of course yesterday she had to reassure the italian prime minister that there was still room for negotiation that no final draft emerged of what will happen in brussels at the end of next week well meanwhile angler merkel is on a tour of the middle east which included a school in lebanon where many of the pupils are syrian refugees but a news conference with lebanon's prime minister designate she said it's still too soon for people to return to syria and live in his government want syrians to start returning immediately to areas where there's no longer any fighting there are

around a million syrians in lebanon about a quarter of the population. well syrian government helicopters reportedly dropped barrel bombs in their a province injuring several civilians opposition activists sources say six people have been killed in shelling by the syrian military a local official told more than twenty three thousand civilians who've been displaced by fighting in the east and there are countryside in the past three days has more now from the baca in southeast turkey syrian army and for the first time in a year used helicopters to drop barrel bombs in areas under rebel control in the south of the country particularly in the province of daraa according to reports at least twelve barrel bombs were dropped on was a lot how did an airhead jayden a letter or the army has used artillery to strike against was what heidi on wed and see for at least one civilian was killed and three were wounded in those towns some of the municipalities in that area announced their cities disaster zones because of
12:59 am
the impact of those strikes this comes after two weeks since the syrian regime announced a new campaign to take those areas that are and under rebel control in the south and that despite warnings from the united states that such a campaign is not acceptable and cannot be tolerated this area is very sensitive because it is very close to the golan heights and also to the border with jordan jordan jordan and the united states as well russia announced a truce in that area last year and it is considered one of the deescalation zones where the syrian army is not supposed to launch a campaign of the size that it is intending to launch now. the rule of law in venezuela is virtually absent according to
