a quarter million people to flee while rebel groups splinter over whether to surrender. and french police launch a massive manhunt for a prisoner who pulled off a spectacular jailbreak using a helicopter. so we begin with the remarkable story of survival out of thailand twelve boys and their football coach have been found alive after spending nine days trapped inside a cave for going to these latest pitches of the boys inside the cave the group became trapped after heavy rains flooded the exit rescue teams from all over the world has been days trying to reach and some even spending the nights inside the cave to speed up the judge. they want to live around the mountain is not rising but now that the seal team has found them they have to take care of them inside the mountain first we want to take any risks but it's
10:02 pm
a sales call because it's their job to bring the mess what we have to do out here is to make sure that most of them does not rise up. and let's go straight to when he joins us live from the scene in chiang. wayne they've been found but not rescued yet what's happening now. well that's right nick the announcement came from the government all of chiang rai province here where the hay is located in the north of thailand a few hours ago announcing as you heard a moment ago that all thirteen have been found deep inside that cave system but you're right they have not been rescued yes in fact that could be a very long and difficult process because all the conditions inside there so what we know now is the priority is getting emergency supplies to those boys and their football coach and medical. well we're told that food and water will be taken to that area where they have been found by navy. divers that have been on
10:03 pm
hand for the best all the week was so interesting to note from that video footage that it seems to make contact with the boys and their coach inside the cave. the british divers as they went through that. find in a dry pot all the cave and after those emergency food rations and water have been delivered to them then the priority will be getting medical attention to them we don't know the condition of the boys all we can tell from the limited reports coming back from the divers is they appeared to be obviously very tired very hungry but other than that they appear to be ok but as far as extracting them there is still a lot of water and that the water levels have for them dramatically over the past few days but they will be nervously keeping an eye on the weather forecast because more heavy rain is apparently on its way the pumping operation it continues as well
10:04 pm
to try and get as much water out of there as they can before more rains arrive they're going to add some urgency to the situations and further agency look at those pitches you can see in the faint the boys and all present but you can see that some of the boys look pretty thin they can only imagine what they've been through. yeah i mean horrific situation obviously we don't know how much they had in terms of we know that some of the boys and the coach had been into this cave system before. we hope that they did take in with them some sort of supplies some torches which would have lasted perhaps a few days anyway and there were unconfirmed reports that they did take some food and water supplies in the. well by that advance team that has found them over the past few hours exactly how they survived in the limited feedback they got from the group was that they were able to drink some of the water that was dripping out from
10:05 pm
the walls dripping from the ceiling all that system obviously a lot of water around in there but there was some concern that drinking some of the water that was flowing through there may lead to other health problems from cave and things over the nine or ten days saying that the best thing would be to would be to drink the water that is coming from the roof or the walls and it seems that that is what they've done and they also said in that video that they've tried over the past nine days to their energy they simply been sitting in that one location we assume trying to sleep as much as they could and they also seem to indicate that they had no idea not surprisingly all how long they had been in there and they were told by the british divers to seem to have made. exactly how long it's been so an amazing ordeal and it will be an incredible sight to see them emerge from that cave behind me even though it could be some time away yet and we're looking now at live
10:06 pm
pictures of the scene where you are where the rescue effort has been spearheaded from. again only imagine what it's been like for the relatives in the parents of these boys on hearing this news and still to be rescued. yes certainly been a whole range of emotions. over the course of the ordeal really from the start when the reports emerged on that saturday afternoon that the boys had not returned from the practice football match after which they went into the cave system the alarm was raised by one of the parents of the boy and ever since then really majority of those parents and close friends and family have been camped out he had just outside the entrance to the cave waiting for any news from inside from the rescue personnel all from government officials and the thai prime minister for
10:07 pm
a visit and it's still a nervous situation for them as well obviously they have greeted the news that they are alive and well with great enthusiasm and happiness but. it may be a very difficult and long process to get them out of the cave and so far they haven't been given any details yet from the search and rescue people or from the government a government representative see exactly how that's going to happen or how long it might take some tense times still ahead for the time being thanks very much dude when i reported. now mexico's president elect is vying to stamp out corruption fight drug cartels reduce social inequality to his resoundingly win on sunday and has meant well lopez obrador will become mexico's first leftwing president in three decades the sixty four year old takes over a country struggling with
10:08 pm
a record high murder rate and the sluggish economy john holeman is live for us in mexico city and john what are the main policies now. that's one of the things that he's actually been criticized about that he has a lot of promises that he wants to deliver he wants to get from a to b. on key issues like corruption crime and poverty but he hasn't quite got the roadmap to do it i think his flagship policy promissory for example which is corruption and on the flagship promise he said that he will eradicate corruption that that will give the country twenty four dollars his government which he will then be able to spend on other public spending projects and programs and that you won't have to raise taxes to do that i actually asked him so how are you going to do this and he said by personally example i asked him it's not going to be enough to show a person example he said yes the rest is just a dormant so it's quite
10:09 pm
a skeleton way to reduce corruption in a country really where the political class is steeped in it the other one is crime makes car have the most violent year on record in two thousand and seventeen and now lopez obrador says what he's going to do today in fact is get together with the united nations with the church with civil society groups and try to come up with a plan to resolve that but he said that basically he thinks that the roots of that of poverty so if you can resolve the problems of poverty and corruption in the country then you can also. resolve the problem of crime in terms of poverty he's got a lot of subsidies that he wants to do a lot of grants for people studying young people studying he wants to double the pensions for older people so there is some policies coming to give us some big government spending projects that he wants to carry out but still a bit of detail lacking he has now got five months until he's swearing in as president to try and do that and john what's been the international reaction to
10:10 pm
this victory. i think by far the most important international reaction from mexico mexico side is probably the united states they've had a very troublesome relationship since president trump has been in power in the united states we now know that the two leaders lopez obrador and trump did have a phone call they said they spoke for about thirty minutes both the leaders confirmed slightly different accounts of what they talked about president trump said that they spoke about border security but they spoke about nafta the free trade agreement between canada mexico and the united states and that he's been thinking about pulling out of if he can update it to his liking and possibly starting a bilateral trade agreement that's from president from president elect lopez obrador said that what they spoke about was border security but from the point of view of developing a plan for jobs in mexico that would mean that less people have to migrate to the
10:11 pm
united states that's been enough of these cool policies we need to provide jobs in the mexican countryside so that if anyone does want to go in north the united states it's because they want to not because they have to do is what he says he's a little bit behind what the actual situation is at the moment in terms of the mexican migration to the united states is actually slowed to a trickle the majority of migrants that go into the united states coming from central american countries like honduras. the door through have to see it but through visions of strong quite individualistic leaders who both have a spouse. in their discourse that they want to put their country first how they get on together in the next period all right john thanks very much the that's a picture from mexico city john holmes reporting. the united nations says that more than a quarter million syrians have now been displaced by the government's offensive to
10:12 pm
retake darragh province in the country's south west jordan is set to hold talks with syria's ally russia this week in the hope of paving the way for a ceasefire this comes after talks with the opposition broke down when splits emerged between rebel groups as this report. syrians flee as frontlines continue to shift in that our province the united nations says two hundred seventy thousand people have already been uprooted during the syrian government's military offensive now in its third week there remain in towns under opposition control are being battered by air strikes and shelling and the fear is an escalated military campaign now that talks collapse was going on in there is a military escalation to pressure the rebel factions to accept the russian military is gone dishes to on the assault those conditions are he relay team for the opposition they just want them to give up everything after years of psych revises they can't accept that. the opposition delegation involved in talks with the
10:13 pm
russian military which were mediated by jordan formally pulled out of negotiations it's not clear if all rebel commanders support their decision but those who have made separate deals are being called traitors to. the representatives of a handful of towns have been signing so-called reconciliation deals with the government or what amounts to a surrender syrian state television is showing people celebrating the return of government rule more often than not there is little choice such deals stave off further military action and prevent more suffering but anyone wanted by the state such as rebel fighters and those involved in opposition activities or who worked in rebel run administrations leave. rebel areas are shrinking more than sixty percent of drought is now under the control of president bashar al assad's forces rebels still hold parts of the provincial capital that are city and the areas along the
10:14 pm
borders of the occupied golan heights and jordan including then a sea crossing the opposition is in a weak position it has been abandoned by its allies the united states told them not to expect to be back to militarily jordan close its borders to weapons shipments and refugees instead it says it wants to focus on mediating a ceasefire but a ceasefire is not what the process and government camp wants. it is pushing for a military victory a win in the southern corner of syria would follow significant gains close to the capital in recent months then like now it is the civilians who pay the heaviest price. valid move could she see let me we ask every person with a conscience to help stop the shot and why are they shelling areas where there are children helpless elderly and sick people the children are hungry and without food we only brought sugar with us please force this criminal to end the shelling. that
10:15 pm
is unlikely to happen that this isn't by some of the opposition not to sit at the negotiating table means a stepped up military campaign especially since the government stated goal is to recapture southern syria. beirut. you're watching live from london coming up on the program an investigation by amnesty international reveals how security forces in indonesia killed nearly one hundred people in the community . and are going to go hold last ditch talks with her interior minister all three threatens to quit the coalition if the migration. hello there we're seeing quite a few thunderstorms across the path of europe at the moment now particularly over france this cluster here is giving us

10:19 pm
c s u headquarters in the capital palin she often has offered to resign from his position as c.s.u. leader and as the interior minister in the medical government he's unhappy at merkel's new migration agreements with the european union but she feels still does not offer enough protection to germany's borden's let's bring in dominic a new joins us live now from berlin and dominic tell us more about these meetings what's been happening. well it seemed rather chaotic over the course of the last twenty four thirty six hours nick because at one point we understood that the interior minister had effectively tendered his resignation or offered his resignation at least because he really couldn't agree with angela merkel about the way ahead regarding immigration his party seemed to talk him down from that today there's been a series of meetings there was an unchangeable meeting the most as a whole for an angle america had the parliament behind me with the speaker of parliament the former finance ministers to show you a real elder statesman of conservatism in germany trying to bring them back into
10:20 pm
a sort of understanding with each other and of course for the last few hours now merkel and being in see you that's merkel's party headquarters with fourteen other colleagues trying to thrash out the details of some kind of compromise and all of this revolves around border control and manage migration management the c.s.u. very clearly wants to be able to turn people back at the borders or as angela merkel's approach is different she believes that she has a majority in parliament even without the c.s.u. to go in a different line and not enforcing border controls in the way that is they are for wants and what kind of negotiating position designed with merkel who does the job to have given that presumably she was as president as the chancellor and further threaten to resign. well they that this sort of rail politic as it were here is that if you look at the parliament the distribution of seats merkel's party
10:21 pm
the c.d.u. has two hundred seats other parties the social democrats that she's in in coalition with they have one hundred fifty three and the christian social union they have this party has forty six so together they have a majority if you take the c.s.u. out and merkel would be short of a majority by a couple of seats the tree just two seats the green party are standing by in the wings they really don't agree with the c.s. use migration policy and there's the suggestion that if the c.s.u. was to fall actually government to say no this is a red line for us we are not prepared to go back on what we said you have to do that's the america that is there is a suggestion that perhaps merkel could could cobble together some sort of stable majority with another party with the greens which is why many analysts look at the situation now and say what are the c.s.u. really doing because anything that they do which threatens their position in government is going to be effectively electorally suicidal because there's no other
10:22 pm
party they could really govern with well beach and see how it all transpires came stumbling thanks very much an investigation by amnesty international alleges that nearly one hundred people have been murdered by indonesian regional security forces in the past eight years police and military leaders in papua province deny they are to blame the allegations are made in the report called don't bother just let them die step bason reports now from the capital jakarta. the killing of four teenage boys in two thousand and fourteen shocked many and witnesses told amnesty international that security forces opened fire on villagers who are performing a traditional dance which is their way of showing anger against the military the seventeen and eighteen year olds died at the scene south indian people were admitted to hospital the case has yet to be brought to court it's one of sixty nine cases detailed in amnesty's report called don't bother just let him die instead of

him as the latest now from washington. here the state department put out a senior official to talk about the status of the u.s. pulling out of the iran nuclear agreement saying it's been about two months since the president made that announcement they said in that time they started sending out senior officials across the globe warning countries and companies that if they continue to do business with iran after the u.s. sanctions are put back in place they too could face u.s. sanctions now will there be any waivers the officials sort of hesitated when us that this is a campaign of imposing pressure and so we are not looking to grant licenses or waivers broadly on the reimposition of sanctions because we believe pressure is critical to it to achieve our national security objectives we are prepared to work with countries that are reducing their imports on a case by case basis so far the u.s. isn't getting a great reception across the globe as a tries to force other countries to follow suit the important date so watch out for
