u.s. president heads to what's shaping up to be a difficult nato summit may jewry as army release is one hundred eighty three children some as young as seven after clearing them of ties to buckle had. free after eighteen years of house arrest in china the widow of nobel peace prize winning this. arrives in europe. i'm touching on a franchise in doha with the supporters france a tiny playing belgium in the fast of the wild cup semifinals plus twenty three time grand slam champion three no williams is three to the semifinals at wimbledon and closer to an eighth title. it was the moment the world had been waiting for after seventeen days trapped deep inside the flooded cave system all twelve tied boys and their football coach have

been rescued in just three days an elite team of diagrams has succeeded in navigation dangerous passages of flooded caves to bring them out to safety the last four boys and their twenty five year old coach rescued earlier in the third and. final phase of the operation they're all now recovering in hospital where they are expected to be quarantined the four week everyone out of the tiny one so we're glad we're so happy that old thirteen from the soccer team had left the caves today we are giving away apples giving away everything food water if anything i would like to thank everyone who helped me i will feel like all thais will feel now after going through their rollercoaster of emotions all the way after two weeks plus everybody will feel relieved to know. i was so fast and is more now from the rescue site and challenge. this is as far as we can get to the case where this incredible rescue operation has now been completed of course it's the best news that we've

heard since a long time that now the twelve boys and a coach all safe and sound outside of the cave including the tide navy seals were with the good doctor with been staying with them for a whole week and it's been a very very tricky and dangerous rescue operation taking place over three days the first two days every day four boys were taken out today five people have been taken out of the floor voice and it caused an uproar so well a lot of dangerous and it was a very difficult call to make for the authority to give the go ahead to this rescue operation because they knew it was very risky and very dangerous but they had to do it because at one stage of course the weather was giving them not much more time to delay it it was a lot of predictions of perhaps product coming in the next few days and also this morning it was already a very bad writer and there was

a very high risk that the water levels in the cave would go up again and make it a lot more dangerous for the boys to come out so they had to make this call and they did it and the boys who had no experience with diving let alone cave diving some of them couldn't even swim they had to go through this very narrow very narrow gateway which at some point was only like forty centimeters you can not imagine how scary that must have been it was completely dark very murky water and they had to go move themselves through that and the boys and their coach have been proven extremely resilient you can't imagine to have been in the cave for ten days without even knowing they would ever be rescued then they had to wait for a whole week if they could actually be rescued through this very dangerous gateway and then they had to cave dive something they've never done before and of course the whole world and also high. especially as now a big sigh of relief here everyone is very relieved that this has and so well. and

amazing rescue operation will joins us live now from outside the hospital where the rescued boys are being treated the boys are now safe of course but how are they doing. well what we know really are the conditions of those who were rescued on sunday and monday we were told this morning that they are in a stable condition two of those children have contracted lung infections but majority of them had laboratory tests done and those results are expected to come in a few days we were told as well that they will have to stay for about a week under supervision in the hospital just to make sure that they are in good condition and psychosocial assistance have been given to them barbara what we know right now is that it's that they haven't been physically reunited with their families what we know is that a few parents were able to see their children through glass windows because really

the area is still rich stricture from everybody because they're still under quarantine. what has the reaction been on the ground to this rescue operation which you know did seem unlikely in some parts but actually has been an incredible success and a real example of cooperation. well definitely i mean it all started with fear and then there was doubt and there's cautious optimism since sunday and now this celebration basically of life in general i mean every single mom or sibling not just in thailand will be able to connect to this story not to mention that it's also world cup season you know the idea of teammates working together on the really difficult conditions that's exactly how it was like in that cave where are these children who were held up with the coach guiding them this spite very difficult conditions it is something that connected everybody and of course like as you mentioned this international solidarity that has been created

truly a test case about how humanitarian assistance between two countries or several countries can be done through your good news story jimmy fallon dogan live from outside that hospital in china right to really thank you. well the first the semifinal of the football world cup has just kicked off france and belgium are battling it out for a place in sunday's final we have correspondence with fans in the both paris and the belgian city of antwerp let's go first live to is with the french fans in the capital paris several are looking quite attentive and calm behind you there and that tasha tell us a little bit about what the atmosphere has been like. for me to finance

a renowned side of the city ruled in the center hours and i can tell you the last couple of hours fans been streaming into it shown singing and singing waving flags but as soon as the whistle began and the game actually kicked off was become a lot more sudden to parse that out of the way you might be able to see that france was watching very intensely at the screen in front of the years because of course they've been waiting for this moment for the past few days there's been quite a build up today everybody was talking about it we saw people walking in the streets wearing blue for old shirts and here twenty thousand people as i said it really is a sea of red white and blue one of the things that's been really nice is that many fans were so say that it's great that we'll jump into problems with this guy because they are two countries which of course share so much the shareholders they share the language some people of things be great to belgium and as well and for them to know what's one find they said look it's a bit like playing both your enemy and a brother at the same time. that with the latest that from paris the passion for

the moment thank you. well let's go over to paul brennan now in the belgian city of adam twirp and paul belcher very much pushing for the. first world cup final they've never won never been in a final end so i guess a lot at stake kid there for the team and the fans. you know massive expectations here for the belgium crowd you can have a high me that cheering every touch of the goal by the team and rides on and on to add and has a lot is been probing very effectively down the left hand side for the belgians and getting some good crosses in but at the moment it's still in the old mill as i say but the expectation massive previous best that belgium of ever done was a seventy final which they lost against argentina back in one thousand eighty six and then they went on to lose the third place play off match against france of all

teams so the hope is that they can go seventy at least one better by getting through this game and they found say i would hope that they win the final as well as look pretty good i mean to matson as he was the coach of belgium it was so fought under beats and i was the cause the coaches got nineteen wins and five draws out of the competitive games that they played i'm the other thing is that it that seventy three times that the two nations have met each other in competitive football it is the belgium super bowl games thirty compared to the twenty four times that france has won but it's all down to the next well what's left seventy five minutes i'm to say who goes through to the world cup final on these fans here certainly hope it is that saying that they call the red devils. cold rain with a step for man close call for the moment thank you. now u.s. president donald trump says meeting friday near putin may be the easiest part of his three nation european tour this week he's currently on his way to brussels for what looks set to be

a contentious nato summit with america's traditional allies then it's on to the u.k. for his first official visit there and finally to finland for a face to face meeting with the russian leader trump has vowed that european countries will not take advantage of the u.s. accusing them again of not spending enough on the fence. their way but i think we'll work something out very far too much. far too little but we will work it out. countries will be happy the u.k. that situation. so i have. had the u.k. which is somewhat turmoil and i have very. frankly maybe double would say. well ahead of the summit the european council president donald tusk said the u.s. will to remember who its friends are the america up to shit your allies

of the old you don't have the money. and europe spend more on the old firms because everyone who spoke the truth will prepare it creeped money's important about genuine solidarity is even more important well it's certainly not going to be a boring some less hard diplomatic editor james bay says more on what we can expect . president trumps setting off for brussels in eighteen months in office he's not hidden his disdain for international organizations in his sights in recent days the us is most important military alliance he's been tweeting about it and he made these comments at a rally last week. to tell you get is paying your bills the united states. with thanks last year on his first trip to nato trump was far from diplomatic

here he pushes past montenegro's prime minister he denounced allies who did not but the nato target to spend at least two percent of the gross domestic product on defense twenty one out of the twenty nine nato members are still not over this threshold last week trump wrote blunt letters to some of his counterparts at this year's meeting watch carefully his interactions with canada's prime minister justin trudeau who he called very honest and week after last month's g. seven summit but his meeting with another leader could be even more difficult just listen to him again at last week's rally and i said you know. what we're protecting. a lot more to. them protecting us because i don't know how much protection we get by protecting the polish between angela merkel and president

trump is certainly at a very low ebb at this time it remains to be seen exactly what happens at the summit but i would suspect that chancellor merkel is going to challenge our donald trump on his assertions over defense spending she's very defensive over this issue she will point to a limited increases in german defense spending. as leaders arrive here in brussels the nato secretary general has been making the case forcibly yet diplomatically why the u.s. needs its twenty eight allies nato is a force multiplier for united states allies have stood with united states on battles for in battlefields from korea to afghanistan the pentagon has reportedly been reviewing u.s. troop numbers in germany in recent weeks the white house has since denied there will be reductions but some u.s. allies are worried it's almost seventy years since the alliance was formed the

treaty was signed in washington never has there been a u.s. president who sent such mixed messages about his commitment to it james spays al-jazeera brussels. and coming up on the al-jazeera news hour the cleanup begins after a catastrophic flooding in japan officials say at least one hundred fifty six people have died all calm now haiti's government backtracks on a fuel price rise but is it enough to keep the president in power and it's france versus belgium in the world cup semifinals we'll be live in paris as the france so their teams can reach the final. but first the u.n. has criticized israel's closure of the only crossing point to get goods into gaza in response to palestinians launching incendiary kites across the border only

humanitarian aid medical supplies and food is being allowed in how mass leaders say shutting the crossing is a crime against the palestinian people hairy force it is at the crossing. a day after the israeli government decision and the effect was clear the substantial reduction in the traffic coming into gaza from the cargo crossing with israel lorries we saw were mainly carrying animal feed which along with medicine livestock fuel and food to shops it cost as humanitarian goods exempted from the closure but that means new rule materials for businesses like this textile firm in gaza city the closure also means no chance to explore the finished product to the occupied west bank which accounts for forty percent of the business. economic decline has already seen production of here in the last year staff cut by a third. this decision means it's more likely that i'll have to close my

factory fifty to sixty workers will lose their jobs i won't be able to fulfill my orders from the west bank or produce for the local market so the decision for us for the whole of the gaza strip is catastrophic. israel's prime minister announced the action as a response to the continuing use of kites and balloons carrying incendiary material which for months now have been flown from gaza into israeli territory thousands of hectares of israeli farmland and forests have been burned the u.n. special coordinator on the middle east peace process on tuesday urged hamas to end the practice and called on israel to reverse the border closure saying humanitarian goods were no substitute for commerce and trade gaza's official unemployment rate already stands at well above forty percent its economy already suffering from salary cuts imposed by the palestinian authority as it too tries to pressurize hamas as long as the restrictions remain in place on goods coming through the

israeli route the focus will shift to what's just over there the rougher crossing from egypt currently thirty or forty trucks mainly carrying construction goods come through that route each day the question is can egypt become an alternative supply route on a large scale. egypt has unusually kept the crossing open since mid may but experts say relying on egypt to replace what's being lost through the israeli crossing is unrealistic. that the then the rafa crossing can't be a substitute for. because there are lots of goods that we import from the west bank we want to see integration between gaza and the west bank we would want rafa to be an additional crossing not a substitute but for that we need a fully integrated political agreement. earlier on tuesday a boat carrying injured people attended to sail from gaza as with a similar attempt in may they were intercepted by the israeli navy at the same time as it imposed the new restrictions on the land crossing israel also ended its

extension for garza's fishing waters reduced back from fourteen kilometers to ten after twelve years of blockade the squeeze on gaza's two million people is intensifying very force at al-jazeera. the palestinians living in the village of qana or have been fighting is really the militia orders for the past eighty years now they face being moved to the side that was once a rubbish dump on the outskirts of occupied east jerusalem. are was built in one thousand nine hundred fifty three near what became the legal settlement of kfar demean the bedouins living there have been attacked by israeli settlers it's one of forty six palestinian villages where israel is trying to force palestinians to leave getting rid of the communities as part of israel's so-called one plan to alex land it's expected to split the occupied west bank into two meaning illegal israeli settlements will completely encircled occupied east jerusalem israeli troops

control so-called area c. marked in red in the map the area makes up around sixty percent of the occupied west bank israel often refuses to connect villages to water and electricity infrastructure the international criminal court says this policy of settling israelis on occupied land and forcing out palestinians amounts to war crimes since one thousand nine hundred sixty seven israeli bulldozers have the mullahs to more than fifty thousand palestinian homes and force the entire communities to leave burnet smith has more now from han alomar. as the people who live here and are run out of legal avenues to prevent the israelis demolishing the school and so their community the palestinian bedouins hear about a hundred eighty of them hoping popular protests like this will keep up the pressure on israel the problem for the palestinian bedouins here is they live right in prime territory in the house of the occupied west bank israel wants this

territory to expand settlement construction ultimately and circle east jerusalem by doing that they also knocked off the northern part of the west bank all the rest of the west bank making the already remote possibility of a contiguous palestinian militant territory even remotely israel says it is the bedouin some other land in another place that's where we're going to have to be moved to the bed when the palestinian bedouins who live here say well this is their home they've been here since the one nine hundred fifty s. and the land that they're being offered isn't suitable anyway for grazing their animals the wife of the chinese dissident a nobel peace prize winner usually bull who died last year has arrived in germany had to being freed from eighty years of house arrest you shall flew from beijing to berlin via the finnish capital house should receive medical treatment while in germany her husband died while serving an eleven year jail sentence for inciting

subversion adrian brown has more now from beijing. lucia said she was prepared to die under house arrest her family feared that was a real possibility as her depression and heart problems worse of the artist was never charged with any crime but spent the last eight years of virtual prisoner in her beijing home emerging only occasionally to talk to journalists and her lawyers . she was married to lose shall book who in two thousand and ten became the first chinese person to win the nobel peace prize his award placed symbolically on an empty chair his acceptance speech written just before his arrest i firmly believe that china's political progress will not stop and i filled with optimism look forward to the advent of a future free china. died of liver cancer almost a year ago he'd been allowed to leave prison for emergency treatment but was banned

from leaving china for medical care china's most famous dissident was serving an eleven year sentence for subversion. for now lucia will live in exile in germany which is where china's premier league chung was on monday so fair to assume lose release was finalized during his talks with germany's chancellor but on tuesday a chinese foreign ministry spokeswoman denied this saying lou had traveled to germany in accordance with her we'll see whether it is related to the high level diplomatic meetings going on at the moment i don't see any connection lou shells release comes at a time when china is seeking to strengthen alliances with countries which like china oppose the trading policies of the united states next week a summit of chinese and leaders of the european union will be held here in beijing

so it's possible that the decision to free lu is a goodwill gesture. china's president xi jinping has presided over a three year long campaign against most forms of dissent what was permissible a decade ago canal land you in jail which is where many human rights lawyers political activists and journalists now languish adrian brown al-jazeera. with the british prime minister a terrorism a has the friend that her plans for breaks out in the face of more resignations within our party in protest to vice chair is of her conservative party have now stepped down following on from the foreign secretary boris johnson and the minister for breaks it to david davis but maine says the negotiating position agreed with her cabinet last week will lead the u.k. leave the e.u. in a smooth and orderly way. on the issue of where we are in terms of the checkers agreement and the proposal that will be coming out in more detail later this week with the

white paper that absolutely keeps faith with the voters british people we will bring an end to free movement an end to the jurisdiction of the european court of justice in the united kingdom an end to sending vast sums of money every year to the european union will come out of the common fisheries policy will come out of the common agricultural policy but we will do this in a way which will be a smooth and orderly breck's it a brics it that protects jobs protects livelihoods and also meets our commitment for no hard border in northern up to northern ireland and on and. well speaking alongside me in london the german chancellor angela merkel welcomed the fact that britain has now come up with a set of proposals. the home does define what matters now is that the negotiating process moves forward and the fact that the u.k. will present a white paper represents a big step now we the remaining twenty seven countries under the leadership of

michel barnier will reach a view and react collectively to the proposals but what i can say already is that it's a good thing there are proposals on the table. let's me to join the hall of those outside the u.k. parliament for us so to reason they didn't actually deal with any substantive issues or did she. well she certainly wasn't in the mood for answering difficult questions put by journalists press conference about the state of vermont about the resignation of forrest johnson instead coming up with these rather general sort of comments about a smooth and orderly breaks of any deep chancellor merkel as well coming up with sort of fairly general words of cautious optimism and support both leaders probably all too aware that this is just the latest sort of movement in a long and complex dance the end of which neither of them can yet see and spare a thought here for the six west balkan leaders who are also at that press conference this is a summit of the west balkans chaired by the u.k. this year extolling the virtues of e.u. membership extraordinarily as they watch this country tying itself up in knots

trying to get away from the e.u. and all the while of course just days now away from the visit of donald trump the president of the united states his first visit as president he said he expects to find a country in turmoil he said his meeting with vladimir putin next week could well be the easiest of his trip to europe downing street. side is a joke but given the political consequences here perhaps not altogether too far from the truth. donald trump has been reacting to all of this. that we have any official statements from. basically what's going on in. france for an answer. where you get the sense from chancellor merkel. and from michel barnier the chief negotiator who was speaking in new york that was really pleased about is that they're finally seems to be a plan that they could start talking about in earnest next week on trade relations

between the u.k. and the e.u. some pretty important perhaps words from michel barnier in new york he says he thinks a deal is already pretty much eighty percent complete he expects the final twenty percent to be completed between now and october or. just. over. the former world number one.

welcome back a look at weather conditions across the levant and western parts of asia it's looking largely fine here at the moment tashkent is looking very hot at the moment and really temperatures upper thirty's low forty's for most baghdad nearly forty five degrees but i think for ghana it looks or could be another day of temperatures up to fifty degrees you've got the sea breezes of course around the mediterranean coastline so twenty nine degrees in beirut is quite pleasant some sort temperatures today head on through into thursday so let's move down in theater a b. and potentially on the western side not a great deal of change temperatures are into the mid forty's on the eastern side we've had a wind pick up the showers come through and just taken a lot really humid air away with it but the winds will start to ease off again so we're going to see a humidity creeping ever our ports over the next few days so forty four degrees and

high humidity expected here in doha as we head down into southern portions of africa the weather is looking mostly fine we've got some clouds along the coast of mozambique which may just give the odd shower but otherwise fine conditions here how this big sunny and seventeen degrees and not a great of a change heading through into thursday up into central parts of africa some pretty heavy showers here of course but it was the gulf of guinea and lagos nigeria could see the old downpour. beleaguered paying the price for his political maneuvering. now desperate for american recognition and absolutely denounce. goodies how did the p.l.o. find strength and support from their own life for oppressed palestinians living in the occupied territories chronicling the turban story the struggle for a palestinian homeland p.l.o.

history of a revolution on al-jazeera. i had a briefing today from a man named steele who has been out there working with the security forces a veteran of el salvador's diety warfare sent to iraq you seem to be without portfolio doing whatever it is that he wanted to take interest or annex about in counterinsurgency while this interview was going on with jim steele there were these terrible screams about pain and terror but what was his mission and what legacy did he leave searching for steel amount is iraq. welcome back here's

a reminder of the top stories on the. old twelve boys and their football coach trapped inside of. them in thailand for seventeen days of being rescued they're now recovering in hospital and are expected to. be u.s. president. to brussels for what's shaping up to be a difficult nato summit trump then heads to the u.k. and then to finland for a meeting with the russian president vladimir putin and the u.n. has. to close the crossing the last commercial entry point. israel says it will only allow humanitarian aid medical supplies and. donald trump's government says it's complying with a court deadline to reunite migrant told with their families u.s. officials say that seventy five of one hundred two children under five who were separated from their parents are eligible for reunions and that of those thirty

eight are likely to be back with their mother and father or father by the end of the day a judge had imposed that that line of tuesday for the government to ensure that all the children had been placed back with their relatives was speaking to reporters at the white house earlier the president pushed back against court rulings opposing his administration's migrant the tension policies. i haven't so you will be bold not to come to our country illegally that really don't come to our drugs are illegal come like other people do come illegally. haitians are cleaning up the streets of the capital following days of violent protests over fuel price hikes businesses were looted and dozens of buildings burned in unrest that saw at least four protesters killed it followed the announcement by the government on friday that the fuel price would increase by up to fifty percent that has now been canceled people are now demanding the immediate

resignation of the president to live not to get his own though in the haitian capital port au prince so what is the situation like on the streets of the capital now. well that's pretty cold for the most part business as usual here but do not let that fool you this is a country that is very much in political crisis and a population here that is quite frankly very mad mad at what they say are very unfair and unjust rate hikes on fuel and the rate hikes it came very abruptly in that were announced by the prime minister and the president thirty eight percent increase in gasoline forty seven percent increase in diesel fuel and the one percent increase in kerosene to kerosene particularly hits the poor people hardest because kerosene is what many people here the poorest of people have to use for electricity and in their kitchens to power their stove so that is what led to these

protests that was some of the most intense that we've seen here in the capital port au prince for many years quite frankly the government by surprise but it also the people were sending a message that it wasn't only about the fuel hikes that they are upset about a lot of things about this government that's only been in power for about seventeen months and now people are calling for not only the president actually but also the prime minister to step down so far there's no indication that they plan to do that i mean the government did cancel the increase of fifty percent. i mean what other reaction is any i have they actually put forward to this. yeah they were the government really had to cancel it because the protests were so intense here it was actually closing down the airport i mean the situ up to this to security situation was very precarious here so the government help they had no

other option now the government says that they are doing these are we're going to do these. fuel hikes because it would have helped the government get much needed money to fund more than three thousand kilometers of highway that road that they're trying to put in the country as well as a government initiative to bring twenty four hour electricity to the country as well something that is not here so the government says listen we need this money fuel prices have been by the government standards low here for many years although many people say they are not low and they said we just have to raise the fuel prices to get money to make better improvements in other parts of the economy and that's why they said they were going through it this of course as you mentioned they backed away they said for now it's a temporary halt temporary halt on the fuel hikes but people here still a very upset that the government might reverse course and again announce more fuel hikes in the future we'll have to see. for us in the haitian capital port au prince

gabrielle thank you now rescuers in southwestern japan are searching for survivors after its worst flooding for many decades fifty six people are still missing and at least one hundred sixty people are now confirmed dead with thousands evacuated from their flooded homes problem cried reports now from chris. soldiers and emergency crews go from house to house to make sure no one has been missed in the flood scale. how low they cool out is there anyone. with dozens of people still unaccounted for the rescue is appeals all being repeated and effective communities throughout this part of japan. a couple of streets away hiroshi issues that he and his extended family have returned to see what they can salvage from what used to be their home like most of his neighbors they go about the task with

a quiet stoicism. and like many japanese here they believe the storms have been getting worse taking on a whole lot amend or recently around here there's been more rain and the river bank is just over there so i've been worried the river defenses in this city are formidable but even they couldn't hold back the torrent of water all japanese cities have in place elaborate plans for dealing with natural disasters but these rains were so unprecedented it led to a surge of water that it seems took the local governments as well as people here completely by surprise once this cleanup is over city leaders will be asking how better to prepare for the next time. hiroshi issues jackie isn't sure he wants to face in next time we can watch taking us through monday my feeling is i won't live here because something like this might happen again. preparing for the future is

never certain made all the harder by apparently worsening weather problems bright al-jazeera the city japan. the nigerian army has released one hundred eighty three children after they were cleared of any ties to the armed group boko haram the u.n. children's agency says the minors aged between seven and they teen were released the my dog the capital of northeastern state borno unicef says around a thousand miners have been abducted by the group since two thousand and thirteen well it's unclear how the release children will be received by their communities for more on that process abraham si se is a senior child protection specialist at unicef and he joins us on skype from my the goodie thank you so much for being with us here on al-jazeera first of all tell us a little bit from your experience the kinds of things that these children will have been through being with boko haram or the kinds of things that they would face and

what difficulties they face now. first of all i take this opportunity took on the leadership of being in nigeria not me so facilitate in the release of this one hundred i need to bring children encountered during military operations the event took place on monday july ninth two rightly pointed out the total number was one hundred on it's three it's all of them are guns and one hundred are seventy five of them boys. we are currently providing in the necessary care and support to these children impact my sheep with eight states is the to shunt the ministry or who ends up here as on social development by providing them weed. made it comes to screening and help facilities. we also looked it vividly into the psychosocial well being but they process is still going on with

regards to the screening of those children i cannot really give you at this particular point in time on what this children of them through except with we've concluded. exercise of a screening on documentation but we do understand that and what's the best imprint . allegedly made associated with elements also some of them have been encountered in the military hostilities of which they may not be directly associated but you've been through what if it events i'm trying my brain because of the process is a bit proud today of release a what would you say i mean when it comes to reintegrating these children which i presume many of them have been away from their families for for a long time i mean the ages seven to eighteen obvious that that's you know it's children of all ages what do you say the would you say the priorities are for these children know it's hard to generalize but in the experience that unicef has had been dealing with similar cases what you say the most important things are right

now. but most important thing for us. in court initially with the happiness or we work in this for us so why don't have the children settle down and find the sort of space which will allow us to do a lot of documentation on in finding the opulence and loved ones and that is one of the key elements with regards to the program and ensuring that we have an effective from an interest in our unification program and in the event we are by we going to find out immediately we look out options so that will options of getting children it with from institutional care and moving them so people who are not we know or family is relatives that we know will be able to provide the necessary care and support to this children the second important issue mustn't done and so on then we have the immense under way we require medical attention and care

including psychosocial distress how can we relate to come to nubs how do we really provide the necessary environment we are in that is try to really gain strength and say look so big it's a very different speed rather than being under the yoke of a number of admissions of the tension we have out here with you know and we completely and then we can also be as children as we used to be and so this week that forgive me for interrupting you what we've seen boko haram target children of course for a long time to use them as fighters they sometimes use them as suicide bombers as of course the story of the chibok girls that were taken has gone around the world at why do you think boko haram targets children and do you see it diminishing in any way. we've got to look in times of fed to feed our structure

that's really lead to recruitment and his of children one of them being the biggies are to be children god made can be manipulated by adults fights in other adult was in a situation like back we have in nigeria. so in this environment that i feared it was my situations that you know come into play you look at number one the family environment is it really conducive to really provide the necessary support so this particular children. make issues with their gusts of poverty the issues with their. sense of fair basic such as obvious as we've been those environments so let up on push factors but the most important element here is baby baby and the prevention of it the recruitment of children which is really paramount and that is one team unicef the bank and so on to see about that we've got the potential

i. france and belgium mccarley out on the failed in the first of the while the cup semi final in some paint is bad it is halftime at the moment the score there is nell nell let's go straight to our sports correspondent andy richardson who's a live in from paid for us andy hill now of course the half time with everything to play for how much will the fact that france have won the world cup before help them here. it is it's halftime here in in st petersburg i mean you have to say this first half has been dominated by belgian in particular really their star man adenauer saudis getting a lot of joy on the left hand side attacking the the french right by consummate wagner school school that amazing goal against argentina in the last sixteen but looking defensively a little bit fragile today even as it's had a couple of really good chances pulled off

a great say for me is that sort of all the various as well france have an offer for the whole lot in the first off but it is still nil nil and i think that's what i'd be worried about if i was a belgian final belgium player that they've dominated this first half but haven't quite been able to get that crucial breakthrough i think as far as their coach goes are both so martinez this again is shown him to be something of an innovator at this world cup he was on the back force a little bit coming into this tournament a fair amount of criticism about his background and whether or not he was really the coach that could get a good formations together for these players coming into this this world cup no doubt that there are a world class players in belgium but whether or not he was the right coach in the past he's. middling to a fair. results with with we get an average soon in the english premier league but he was in the last sixteen against japan when his team with sunil downer was able to switch things around ball of nasa chadli in mind for laney and they got a famous three to come by win and then he really can confuse the brazilians in the

quarter finals when he played a four three three formation played kevin de bruyne is a false nine about seems completely out maneuver the brazilians and here is again switching things up he's played a part for with he got young that song going to left back sort of looking after killing him back pay and it's been it's been a formation his word for his players so far they're buying into his tactics and they've had the better of the first half and the miller with belgium potentially another forty five minutes or third away from their birth of a final how will that be playing in their mind. yeah of course to me history weighs heavily on the old sayings doesn't it we think back to the belgium seems of the early eighty's in one thousand nine hundred got to the sort of final of the european championships the same crop of players reached the semi's of the world cup in one thousand nine hundred eighty six there was a dropoff in belgium football after that and they've really reinvigorated the academy system in that country and here they are now with a with

a team that's competing on a global stage i think for finance who. are looking to emulate what the team did in one nine hundred ninety eight when they when they won the world title that counts and then was thirty eight they show me as the coach now they need to switch things around a lot they show was criticizing the fun of euro twenty sixteen when he went a little bit soo conservative in the final against portugal didn't seem to have a plan b. to try and turn the game around and i'm the same thing seems to be happening now is not killing him back but he's made such a huge impact on this tournament playing down the right sound side but up to now he's struggling to quite come into his own in this game he just towards the end of a hard fought a couple of breaks where you he was getting the better of young that song but he's not the quickest go to cross over to alleviate your you who well the fell to his knees rather than rather than of finding the finish so you think in the second half of france or to prosper but they just need to play a bit more of a central role and de sean needs to make sure his came and gets the ball more ok

thank you and he will see how dope plays out now natasha butler is watching the game with the fans in the french capital paris let's go then now natasha had still a level a hard time with everything to play for how are the fans feeling that way you are. not. looking any describe the atmosphere here as a tense it's become very quiet indeed because of course the fans we've got a great week with through the first off and then as i mean by france even though there were ample opportunity for the crowds here really everyone is biting their nails i mean there is a second hop to go so it goes out of my overtakes but what i'm just told me is this medal much more comfortable at their team a lot of you know it's a stark contrast to the atmosphere here a few hours ago before this fan zone to the city hall right in the heart of paris that was chanting and singing for hours everybody was extremely revved up but now everyone is very nervous they want to get into the bible prophecy been in the final
