through the struggle of those he seemed long for living. with ambulance on al jazeera. this is al jazeera. this is the news our live from doha i'm coming up in the next sixty minutes. to the drama the grips the world as the final five are rescued from the thai caves . the u.s. proposes mortada of some chinese imports as a trade war intensifies between the world's biggest economies. a bomb in pakistan kills fourteen people including

a prominent politician. and in sports france beat belgium giving them a shot at their second world cup title. twelve boys and their football coach of recovering in hospital after a dramatic rescue effort ended their seventeen day ordeal. it was the result the world was hoping for with elite divers a scorching the youths out in small groups that had to navigate the dangerous passages of the flooded cave complex some just over half a meter wide will step outside the hospital in shanghai how is the mood there after the successful completion of this rescue mission. mission impossible has been accomplished and the people here can finally go back to the. right now if they were. complete strangers hugging

each other so happy that the whole ordeal and it so well. also at the. group. came out parents were gathering in front of. these four people with the boys full whole week to take care of themselves. making sure they were comfortable and relaxed here at the hospital through all of this hospital the whole team. including the coach all in one team right now. and stay in the hospital for the whole week also the three navy seals. here at the hospital. all come to the hospital in a while they had been kept away from their boys for quite a long time but they have seen them through they haven't actually been able to help

them yet. we know about the condition of the boys that were rescued last night. yeah that's a very interesting thing we haven't heard any official word on their condition yet we know. that the first eight boys are doing the rescue operation as we know went through three stages three. first groups were doing while they had some infractions they were. very very hungry but the last group of five four boys we have yet to hear. but what we're hearing is that all surprisingly well. with the by being. so long it's surprising how well they are doing right now. thanks very much and. the u.s.

says it will target china with more tariffs on imports as the trade dispute between washington and beijing escalates the u.s. trade representative says new duties may be imposed on an additional two hundred billion dollars worth of chinese products the tariffs won't be imposed until after a two month period of public comment on the proposed list the republican chairman of the senate finance committee has called the move reckless well adrian brown is live for us in beijing how do we think that china's going to react to this adrian. well i think expect a sort of tit for tat response which is what we saw on friday of course when this trade wall really shifted into gear now we've gone up yet another gear so i would imagine we'll hear from the commerce ministry but perhaps today outlining the list of u.s. products then are going to target of tariffs of ten percent the united states has said that it's doing what it's doing because china it says doesn't play by the

rules of the world trade organization essentially the trumpet ministration has been accusing the chinese of behaving like criminals and what we have now i think is a situation where neither side appears ready to blink both sides have you know box them selves into a corner and it's difficult to see how they're going to get out of it i mean i don't think the cheating ping is the sort of leader who's going to back down in the face of these new threats from the united states and president donald trump knows that what he's doing at the moment is playing well with his core supporters in the united states i think the danger is going to be if the trade war escalates even further because trump is threatening to impose tariffs on up to five hundred billion worth of chinese goods now that figure represents the size of the u.s. trade deficit with china but it's not just the deficit that's at the core of this

dispute essentially the united states is accusing china of strong arming u.s. firms here in china into handing over their their know how their intellectual property and the fact that you know u.s. companies have to have a joint venture arrangement with a chinese company in order to do business in china and the united states says that is no longer going to happen and i think you know this actually i think that the the the trump strategy is a strategy that i think has been in the planning for a very long time this is this isn't something that was sort of dreamed up you know over night. adrian is this conflict going to be restricted just to trade or there are other issues that are likely to be affected by the spillover from this well rob as we've seen in the past when it comes to china and the united states everything is you know connected i mean just last week the u.s. sailed a couple of warships through the straits of taiwan last week after mike pompei of

the u.s. secretary of state went to pyongyang to meet the north korean leader no sooner had he left north korea the north korean media accused the united states of gangsterism saying that the united states was now going against the spirit of the singapore summit and trump quickly tweeted that it seemed that president xi jinping was using his influence over the north korean leader so as to gain leverage in the trade talks so yes it's possible that's the danger that this will spread beyond just trade to issues like north korea the south china sea dispute and of course the increased tensions over taiwan aaron brown live for us in beijing adrian thank you very much indeed. u.s. president donald trump says meeting vladimir putin may be the easiest part of his three nation european tour this week he's just arrived in brussels for what's likely to be a contentious nato summit with america's to dish will allies then he'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 is valid that european countries won't take advantage of the u.s. accusing them again of not spending enough and defense. fairly but i think we'll work something out. a little but it will work it out. the u.k. . so i have. had the u.k. we. thought maybe. we would think ahead of the summit the european council president said the u.s. ought to remember who its friends are the america up to shape your allies after all you don't have that many. it's year europe spend them all on your defense

because everyone expects an led light that this will prepare and that creeped money is important about genuine solidarity even more important are diplomatic editor james bays has more on what we can expect from the summit. president trump arriving in brussels in eighteen months in office he's not hidden his disdain for international organizations in his sights in recent days the u.s. is most important military alliance he's been tweeting about it and he made these comments at a rally last week. tell nato you get to see paying your bills the united states thank you thank you thank you most 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. we're protecting you and it means a lot more to you then protecting us because i don't know how much action we get by protecting you and the partnership 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 donald

trump on his assertions over defense spending she's very defensive over this issue she will point to the limited increases in german defense spending. as leaders arrive here in brussels the nato secretary general has been making the case for smiley yet diplomatically why the u.s. needs its twenty eight allies nato is a force multiplier for united states allies have stood with do not estates on battles for 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 gestates he is a former u.s. state department official who served as a foreign policy advisor on both the obama and hillary clinton presidential campaigns he says donald trump's attitude towards nato works to russia's benefit. what we have here are a bunch of leaders the oldest allies of the u.s. in history and they are not just insulted they are aligned they have been undermined and now their interests are being threatened if this particular summit fails by any of these measures these allies will start to define the us as not an ally of theirs but as a threat to them already they believe donald trump is harming their core national security interests russia is the chief beneficiary of all of these unprecedented threatening moves coming from this administration from this president

to this alliance and to our oldest allies i suspect they will have a toast they will have some caviar they will laugh and they will look at all the destruction and destabilization that they are meeting out on the rest of the world and this will have an effect in the u.s. elections that are coming up the midterm elections you better believe they will donald trump not only with his tariffs which are connected to all of this and part of his grievance with the alliance but this too on top of another stack of things are going to make it difficult for republicans at the mid-term elections police in pakistan say a prominent politician is one of fourteen people killed in a suicide bomb attack in the city of peshawar officials say the bomber targeted a political rally killing her two in a balloon the leader of pakistan's national party who was due to run in local elections later this month at least thirty five others were injured in that last

to amaze bragg's at planned continues. and in sports twenty three time grand slam champion city in the williams's through to the semifinals at wimbledon and closer to an all england title. tuesday was the court ordered deadline for the trumpet ministration to reunite parents and children under five who were separated at the mexican border by immigration authorities the white house has admitted only a fraction of the families will be placed back together in time and the federal judge who ordered the reunions isn't happy shihab rattansi reports from washington d.c. . at least one reunification of a father and his young child by tuesday's federally ordered deadline was captured on camera but the u.s. government admitted it would fail to reunite all migrant children under five with the parents it took away the government says of the some one hundred children in

its custody just over a third of that number would definitely be reunited with parents by the end of tuesday officials said some parents have been passed background checks to ensure the child's safety d.n.a. testing to confirm the relationship of parent and child wasn't complete in some cases and some parents have been released into the us or deported making it logistically difficult for families to be re-united but the federal judge who mandated the reunions was not impressed judge danish ordered that sixty three children be reunited by the end of tuesday he ordered that the process of matching parents and children be streamlined expedited d.n.a. testing used only if no supporting documentation could be provided by parents and for the eight children whose parents had been released into the us to be reunited immediately and an important consideration to keep in mind here is which of these screening procedures the government is undertaking are really necessary and legitimate here and which ones of these procedures are really delaying tactics the

judge said that if the trumpet ministration failed to meet his tuesday deadline it would have to specify reasons to the american civil liberties union by thursday the a.c.l.u. could then contest those reasons in court on friday with the possibility of a penalty being levied against the government if it was found to have acted in bad faith back in washington president trump seemed untroubled by the chaos his zero tolerance immigration policy has unleashed on legal asylum seekers and their children have a solution tell people not to come to our country illegally this was supposed to be the comparatively easy a deadline for the government to meet but it failed the next deadline is july twenty sixth all some three thousand migrant children over the age of four in u.s. custody to be reunited with their parents by then she had. the jungle ministration once the supporter for latin american countries as it tries to reunite the migrant

families u.s. homeland security secretary kirsten nielsen met the foreign ministers of guatemala mexico el salvador and honduras and guatemala city mexico's foreign minister has criticized the u.s. and said the separations are cruel and inhumane the five nations pledged to work together to reunite the families and fight people smuggling well eric olson his deputy director of the wilson center is latin american program is joining us now on skype from washington d.c. thank you very much indeed from for your time there is some merit would you say the u.s. is policy of trying to get america countries involved in this because clearly the migrants are leaving those countries for a reason. yes certainly i mean they issues that are driving migration are the issues in those countries especially under assault salvador and guatemala and so they need to work together

in trying to address those drivers of migration economic despair. severe provider wants and crime and issues of corruption in government that make them inefficient so working together sitting down with them to work together on those issues are a good step to trying to address this problem long term one of the things that appears to be a consistent issue in the terms of migration in the increased migration from like america countries has been the state of the nafta bill and the the the top administration's attitude towards that what pressure can latin america can american countries put on the top administration to try to renegotiate that bell and make it more attractive for people to stay at home. well nafta is not going to have much impact in central america they have a separate deal on and central america nafta is really mexico canada the united states so i think it's important to the economic well being of all three

countries can of the u.s. and mexico i think it's important that they reach a deal on it to solve that but it's probably not going to be a very effective tool for addressing the problems of migration from central america there you have to have very specific policies and programs supported internationally supported by local governments to address this severe. poverty inequality in those countries lack of opportunity lack of good schooling that are driving people to migrate to or mexico in the united states i was talking to an immigration lawyer in our previous program. he was saying that one of the parts of the problem is the fact the migrants don't completely understand the process that they have to go through to initially and to the country legally but not to get frustrated that the delays they face in terms of that that entry process do you

think that the countries that they're leaving have a responsibility to explain to potential migrants just how difficult that process could be i think there's always something that can be done to. you know let people know that they're about to embark on an incredibly dangerous for czerny the chances of women facing sexual violence the chances of women and men and children being extorted. facing all kinds of hardship a long ways very real and so there can always be an element better attempts to educate them on those risks but at the end of the day they're weighing those risks against what they're experiencing in their own communities in their own homes and in their own cities and often times the risks of the journey nor earth are small compared to the kinds of violence they face at home the kinds of

poverty and even starvation that people face at home fifteen percent of children under the age of five i excuse me eighty percent of children under the age of five in guatemala are severely undernourished so they're facing very difficult situations in their home countries and simply saying it's going to be bad on the road it's not always enough to dissuade them or wholesome thanks for joining us on autism you're very welcome glad to do it. actions have been cleaning deborah from the streets of the capital following days of violent protests over fuel price hikes businesses were looted and dozens of buildings were burned in unrest that saw at least four protesters killed and even though the price increase has been scrapped people still want president zawinul moyes to step down as owner reports from port

au prince. a buzz of activity at first glance it appears like just another regular day in haiti's capital city. but don't be fooled this is a country again dealing with a political and economic crisis port au prince has in recent days but the scene of large scale protests thousands took to the streets at one point officials temporarily close to the capital's international airport fearing the crowds the anger was directed at the government police used tear gas to disperse people apparently threatening to overrun the presidential palace several people were killed during the melee. the unrest was sparked by the government's decision to increase fuel prices by up to fifty percent the increases cover gasoline diesel and kerosene sales however it's kerosene which stands apart from the others being the cheap fuel of choice for the millions of poor haitians to power their stoves and generators people in this economically popper's country most of whom make less than

a couple dollars a day are furious at what they view as an inept and corrupt government the fuel hike was the last straw down the bit bucket we are taking to the streets because the president is keeping the people hostage everything is overpriced unemployment is high and people are hungry we need to free haiti from all of. that is if the president doesn't step down we'll continue protesting we've given lawmakers an ultimatum either they force him from office or we will burn the parliament down to the ground. i government says the gasoline rate increase was needed and it would have brought in tens of millions of dollars to fund much needed infrastructure projects throughout the country but faced with a backlash the government backed down and halted the rate increase at least for now but this is still a country in deep political crisis people here saying they'll go back on the streets to protest until there's a change in government george's lucien is

a historian and political analyst who says these protests are different from the ones in the past because now the anger is focused not only on the political leaders but also at the business leaders as well. these policies not only affect the poor but also the middle class until the government starts working to improve people's lives there's no guarantee the recent unrest won't return so far all the government policies are pushing people out of their lands they are building sweatshops in other industries for imports but ignoring local production. a proposed fuel price hike. is now the fuel inflating the end of the long suffering of people gave rosendo. port au prince going to be more resignations from prime minister teresa mayes ruling party over her strategy for pulling the u.k. out of the european union two senior conservatives stepping down just

a day after brags that negotiator david davis and former secretary. both quit for the same reason john holl reports. trooping into downing street a brand new minister in charge of breaks it dominic robb and the brand new foreign minister jeremy hunt at a meeting of her revamped cabinet this was a display of to reserve may's authority after an especially bill and few days. but with further conservative party resignations on tuesday afternoon it's clear she's not on safe ground yet and in the current state of british politics living to fight another day can mean little more than just that at a press conference later the prime minister wasn't in the mood for answering difficult questions about the state of her government speaking alongside german chancellor angela merkel she offered only general comments about a smooth and orderly brix it 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 face with the british people get us there on 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 words of cautious optimism there from chancellor merkel for tourism a and her new break plan that in visitors keeping close trade ties with the e.u. negotiations kick off again in earnest next week but with just months to go before the u.k. formally exits the block it may well be that negotiators are just pleased they're finally is a plan recent days have seen two senior ministers resign in protest at the plan the figures say limits the u.k.'s ability to strike trade deals outside the e.u. and binds the u.k. to e.u. rules without having any say in them in his resignation letter former foreign minister boris johnson said that would make the u.k.

i. mean the weather sponsored by. hello and welcome back now as we look at the weather first of all across eastern parts of china and taiwan this circulation we have here is our typhoon maria now it's going to produce huge seas and coastal inundation along the stretch of the coastal mainland china i think for taiwan is only just going to clip the northern edge is the south which is more vulnerable to flooding but sunny for eastern parts of china i think will be sent back you ation is taking place because this is a really quite system as well hong kong should be ok i think for shanghai windy but again ok heavy showers likely across the indo-china region now you see this move the forecast through the search day there's still the circulation there and that rain could go on for quite some time but the worst of the storm will be over stage but i say it's the coastal inundation which causes most concern into southeastern parts of asia so if a northern part of the philippines it could be quite wet miller can see a bit of

a soaking for the south not so bad once the end to borneo some heavy showers beginning to move in here and indeed further south where the conditions not looking too bad once again to jaffa as you would expect this time of year largely dry and fine generally up through the weather conditions looking fine but again once again to thailand with some very heavy showers highs of twenty nine in bangkok. the weather sponsored by cattle waste. a beleaguered paying the price for his political maneuvering the middle east now desperate for american recognition good thirty and observe your clique 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 turbulence during the struggle for a palestinian homeland p.l.o. history of a revolution on al-jazeera. thank you of opinion and wits that

take that view is no point to make an argument that i have no basis in fact or knowledge and esteem and chamber of two banks in every important thing an examination of the ideas the thinkers the theorists and philetus a lot of people see them as victories for me to and from they haven't seen victories for anybody search yourself unfairly or a new series of head to head coming soon on out which is zero. you're watching al-jazeera a reminder of our top stories this hour that are being celebrations in thailand where all twelve boys and their football coach have been rescued from

a flooded cave system the boys are now recovering in hospital but are expected to be quarantined for a week. a prominent politician has died along with thirteen others in a suicide bombing in the pakistani city of a shower official said the bomber targeted a political rally killing how do the leader of the national party. u.s. president donald trump has proposed more tariffs on chinese imports as the trade dispute between washington and beijing escalates the u.s. trade representative says new tariffs may be imposed on an additional two hundred billion dollars worth of chinese goods that are public and chairman of the senate finance committee has called the move reckless well let's get more now on those proposed u.s. tariffs and the reaction to them in china and a time when advises the chinese government on economic issues and he's joining us now from beijing in china thank you very much indeed for your time sir if i understand it correctly these tariffs that are being proposed are less than the

original tariffs that the trumpet ministration put forward and they're going to be brought in after a period of so-called public consultation is there a difference in the message from the first time that were announced and how is china going to interpret that. well i don't think there's much of a difference rob what is happening here is donald trump is doubling down on his attack on the u.s. on the chinese place in the global supply chain and this is going to have really difficult consequences china already has its list drawn up you can expect something within very very short period of time as soon as the list has come out china will respond in the same manner is there a point at which a trade war with the us becomes untenable for china. well i don't know if it becomes on tangible i think in the end china is has

a tremendous amount of resolve on this remember this is a country that did not have much you know just even thirty years ago they can go back to having less it'll be a little bit more difficult for their resolution here is either internal pressure and or external pressure in the form of a coordinated response by sympathetic countries sympathetic to china's plight and their own plight. donald trump as a managed to amass quite a group of friends neighbors and what he calls competitors who are very mad about the trade tariffs there are often mixed messages as we know between what president trump says and the government officials who actually have to carry out his policies is china clear on who it should be dealing with and what it is that the u.s. actually wants. well i think today you'll note that there were statements put out by light hauser and light hisor

indicating exactly the same line that they've said before i think people perceive that donald trump is under the sway of the merkin telis the same people who believe that this tariffs is the answer you go back to one nine hundred thirty in the smoot hawley act which was imposed in one thousand thirty and they reduced international trade in the period of four years by sixty six percent they think that this is going to work with china today even though the world is even more interconnected china views this as trump because this was his message on the campaign trail and the advisers that he has surrounding him in influencing him are the targets that the u.s. has brought in on china is starting to bite in terms of chinese trade but also in terms of the daily lives of people in china well it

hasn't really been very hard at this point but it will bite and people here are concerned but you know in the same thing way that the china dealt with south korea when they. lobby gave land to the government to set up that missiles i think you're going to see the same kind of reaction a massive consumer action reaction against american goods now remember this is going to hit not only the things that you know we talk about in terms of terrorists but also the tremendous number of american companies that are over here johnson and johnson you know. ford all of the auto companies lot of companies are now very very worried about their china business so we repressurize your time as always thank you very much indeed. the un has criticized israel for closing the only crossing point where goods can get into gaza access has been limited because palestinians have been flying kites carrying incendiary devices across the barrier

into israel only humanitarian aid medical supplies and food are being allowed through the crossing how the faucet reports. a day after the israeli government decision and the effect was clear a substantial reduction in the traffic coming into gaza from the cargo crossing with israel the lorries we saw were mainly carrying animal feed which along with medicine livestock fuel and food bishops' accost as humanitarian goods exempted from the closure but that means no raw materials for businesses like this textile firm in gaza city the closure also means no chance to export the finished product to the occupied west bank which accounts for forty percent of the business gaza's economic decline has already seen production hard here in the last year staff cut by a third of one of them a fine. 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 to 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 un 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 pressurise 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 rafa 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 marble of. 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 gaza saudi arabia says hope the rebels have tried to attack the city of design near its border with yemen state media is reporting that saudi forces intercepted a missile fired by the rebels who things have launched dozens of missiles at saudi arabia in recent months it's in response to the saudi and iraqi operation to defeat the rebels. the u.n. special envoy has met yemen's president to discuss the four year conflict including the fighting around her data saudia marathi coalition is backing a government offensive against who three rebels for control of the port city but there are fears the fighting could stop aid getting in most of yemen's food and humanitarian supplies pos through what it is seaport special envoy martin griffiths says talks with president aba months or hadi were constructive the president has established a committee under the prime minister to assist us in looking at the proposals for

a relaunch and a resumption of political negotiations to resolve the conflict my job now is to undertake consultations with the government of yemen and. to lead to a point where we can resume formal negotiations obviously we will do that as quickly as we can because of the the humanitarian situation in yemen prime minister shinzo avi's due to visit areas of japan devastated by the worst floods in decades at least one hundred fifty nine people have died and fifty seven are still missing in the aftermath of the disaster robert bright has more from crashing in on the prefecture. shinzo visit comes as emergency teams continue to search through debris and destroyed houses looking for some of the people who are still missing thousands of people remain displaced meanwhile thousands more are gradually

returning to their homes to assess the damage and figure out how to rebuild. government this is a chance to assess how it deals with extreme weather events such as this especially if as people here believe these have now become the norm rather than freak occurrences japan is already well advanced in preparing for natural disasters it has to be given the prevalence of tsunamis and earthquakes it seems you can now add to that list extreme storms such as this and this visit by a seems to be a recognition of the priority it's now giving to this. u.s. president donald trump has issued another round of pardons this time it's two men convicted of setting fire to public lands six years ago they later became the inspiration for protests by armed groups against the authority of the federal government and washington editor castro has more. it all started with fires white

in stephen hammond in mid setting on their own ranch land which they claimed accidentally crossed on to federal land but a jury convicted them of arson and the father and son were sentenced to five years when they went to prison little did anyone know that the cases of these two men who were opposed to the u.s. government controlling grazing land would become a rallying call for some the hammonds of turn themselves in it's time for you to leave our community in two thousand and sixteen the plight of the imprisoned father and son attracted the attention of a group with a political agenda armed men who saw themselves as defenders of rural landowners abused by federal government overreach broke into the offices of an oregon national wildlife refuge because we have allowed our federal government to step outside the bounds of the constitution. come down upon the people and are prosecuting them now directly the armed protesters faced off with police for nearly six weeks ending in

one protesters death meanwhile the father and son who inspired the standoff remain in prison until now on tuesday president trent granted the men full pardons a statement from the white house press secretary reads the hammonds are devoted family men respected contributors to their local community and have widespread support from their neighbors local law enforcement and farmers and ranchers across the west the presidential pardon though has sparked concern in may in boulder and more protesters to take up arms they're looking for another opportunity to take over public land or have a showdown with law enforcement agents and this will only embolden them i do fear that it's just a matter of time before we see another standoff. there's also the question of a pattern to trump's pardons most of the eight people who've received pardons are figures popular with trump's base. they include a conservative writer convicted of campaign finance fraud

a sheriff who racially profiled suspected illegal immigrants in a former vice presidential chief of staff convicted of obstruction of justice the father and son ranchers now join the fold with the right wing applauding another win delivered by trump. castro al-jazeera washington and various expected on a wedding stay in germany in the trial of the last survivor of a neo nazi group that went on a killing spree in the early two thousands the trials lasted five years there was a public outcry when it became clear the group was allowed to operate for years before law enforcement was able to connect the dots dominic came reports from munich. for five years be outta shape or has been on trial for her part in multiple murders that shocked germany acting in the name of an organization inspired by the nazis the national socialist underground or nic the case against she is that she

was a willing accomplice in a three person cell targeting members of the turkish community. the first victim was killed here on the outskirts of nuremberg in september of the year two thousand n vashem shack was a thirty eight year old businessman who ran a group of flower stalls at a nearby market at the time police struggled to find a motive for his killing. but we know now and the shim checks death was the start of a killing spree that would touch seven different german cities between two thousand and two thousand and seven claiming ten lives three people were killed in nuremberg two were murdered in the bavarian capital munich the other five in cities outside bavaria eight of the victims were from the turkish community in all cases the victims were shot in the head at close range but what this map doesn't show is that after the last killing it took the authorities almost four years to track down the

cell and then only after two of them over bernhardt and laws had carried out an armed robbery being cornered by the police and then shot themselves before they could be arrested it fueled accusations of incompetence by the authorities with some people suggesting some officers might have colluded with the n.s.u. families of the victims say their ordeal has been made worse by the time it took for the trial to happen. the murder why did the murderous choose my father i can't and won't simply believe that it was a coincidence four hundred thirty seven days of investigation and these questions weren't answered i have no closure because i have the feeling that not everything was done that could have been done because i'm sure that other accomplices are still walking around out. police in two thousand and eleven during the trial spoke in court except to deny

. where every year. when the news breaks. on the mailman city and the story builds to be forced to leave it would just be all when people need to be heard to women and girls are being bought and given away in refugee camps al-jazeera has teams on the ground to bring you the award winning documentaries and naive news on al-jazeera i got to commend you all i'm hearing is good journalism. and. in a world where journalism as an industry is changing we had fortunate to be able to continue to expand to continue to have that passen that drive and present the stories in a way that is important to worthless. everyone has a story worth hearing. and cover those that are often ignored we don't weigh our

coverage towards one particular region or continent that's why i joined al-jazeera . the reality as it is i don't know if they charge for a contract they call it modern slavery for indonesia every day. breaking news story very fascinating country but very difficult to understand from the outside because i've been living here for sixteen year olds go on and i go for the whole country and even to go. on gives the opportunity for a journalist to be a real journalist. well i'm. well you. know some of it i like. you. know.

one of the biggest problems facing our oceans is the loss of seagrass that i was watching real for roughly fifteen percent of the ocean's total carbon storage perhaps or they hoped wifeless much carbon dioxide as rain forest and they're also question marine habitats for many endangered ocean species. but here on

elkhorn slew in central california the tide could be turning for sea grass thanks to some unexpected allies. power here a free air. this nine hundred hectare as she wary is where rivers throughout this region meet the pacific ocean this is the agricultural powerhouse of the united states and fertilizer and pesticide runoff threaten the balance of this delicate ecosystem so having farmers so close to the old. what impact does that have on the water quality well i mean were coastal environments close to urban centers coast or were as close . as you get like. it grows with the rocks there mentioning starts decomposing over half of the world

sea grass meadows are in decline but here in al corn slew they're making a surprising comeback. oh wow. at one time there were thousands of sea otters in california but in the eighteen hundreds they were hunted to near extinction for their soft fur pelts. there are now more than one hundred in this as consuming a staggering one hundred thousand crabs per year. this federation's appetite has helped restore the balance of this ecosystem by triggering a chain reaction known as a trophic cascade. sea otters the crabs lower crop numbers allows smaller invertebrates like sea slugs to thrive and these creatures are crucial for the health of seagrass eating build up on the leaves they allow sunlight to reach

the plants. because the otters are so crucial to the ecosystem scientists are carefully monitoring their slow and steady come back. they capture them and tag them with radio devices. firing their work really well. it's a crime was probably very close. what's the purpose of proper we go out seven days a week is to go out and find individuals see where they are what they're doing. the other part of it is this just so we can understand the distribution of otters in this area what are they eating and how are they doing health wise there's one right there that's three four nine six so that beeping is an otter and that beeping is from the radio transmitter that's we surgically implanted in her so that helps us move kater why don't you take

a look right in there. along the west coast of north america researchers have noticed that the return of top level predators is having an impact on restoring all kinds of underwater life and the entire ocean system. what the sea otters do it's kind of it turns the tables against them through thousands of facts of sea otters living crowd essentially the same grass an advantage again so if we introduce top predators like sea otters to ecosystems around the world we'll have a knock on that potentially in the prediction is yes so if you re store food webs which means a lot of times bringing back a top predator to a system that we wiped out we have a great potential for restoring the health of that system.
