there are no reports of injuries how mass says that the attack was meant to stop the israeli escalation let's go live now to gaza al-jazeera pond bernard smith is there bernard what's the latest. well we've heard just in the last few minutes that a house was hit in one of those israeli air strikes in carney unison south of gaza strip and that belonged to a commander of the could sprigg aid what is important there are two injuries from that house being hit what is in important to look at from these air strikes the israeli strikes is that all of the targets upset perhaps from that house have been essentially open areas or training areas used by hamas or other armed groups nobody as far as we know is being killed and there have been a couple of injuries and from the from the side of the fighting groups here in gaza we understand from what israeli television is saying about seventy rockets have been fired into israel from the garza side of things now it seems that israel has

targeted mainly these open areas as a fact of really a warning israel's military has been vexed and frustrated over the last two weeks by these burning kites and balloons the protesters have been floating over gaza into israel that have been burning some of them landing on israeli crops and burning crops on border communities here israel's prime minister benjamin netanyahu has been under a lot of pressure because of the failure to stop these burning kites he's warned hamas and groups here in gaza and the kites are still coming over so this israel says it's because those kites are still coming over what israel hasn't done for the time being is targeted any of the hamas leadership and it knows where they are it could if they wanted to but it seems at the moment to be aiming at these symbolic places adrian for its part bernard hamas is quoted in israeli media as wanting to

seek a new to terence balance that does not allow israel to determine the rules of the game. resistance force is it says a ready for any israeli aggression will respond much faster than expected what are we to make of that. well what both sides want to do anything like this is but well first of all both sides say they do not want an all out war how much says that and israel says that both of them have repeated that and they've said it again today what hamas wants to be able to do what the groups here in it in gaza want to be able to do odd to be the ones that fire the last shots israel also wants to be the one that fires the last shot so that the challenge is to avoid an escalation as they keep firing those last shots and we do know that both egypt and the un special envoy for the medley middle east middle and middle i live in off both of them are in contact with the groups here in gaza and with the israelis to try and calm the situation down you affectively have red lines or both sides the israeli red line

you could say is that if any of those rockets injure or kill israelis then there's going to be a much harder crackdown and hamas on the groups who would say if israel kills any of its leadership any of its senior leadership in any of these groups then it too will escalate so the challenge is to stop this escalating we had a similar situation last month it was calm down last month the attempt is to do the same again in the coming hours later we'll have more on these israeli military assault on the gaza strip the biggest in four years later in the news for the moment but it's miss many thanks indeed. iraq has placed its security forces on high alert after anti-government protests spread to the capital baghdad the order was issued by prime minister who also serves as commander in chief of the armed forces process began in the southern city of high unemployment and a lack of basic services. reports. it's nearly fifty degrees celsius in

natural resources unemployment rates have skyrocketed and that's mainly due to most of the jobs in the oil industry being filled by foreign workers rising living costs contaminated water supplies and lack of basic services in the city aggravated frustrations with the government. there are presented of grand ayatollah ali al sistani expressed his support for the demands of the shia majority city. all we can do is show our solidarity with these people in their righteous cause we feel their suffering we are concerned about their difficult living conditions and it's all due to the incompetence of former and current officials the prime minister has vowed to revive the economy which has been ravaged by years of conflict i bet he is keen to calm frustrations as iraq struggles to build a new government two months after parliamentary elections that have been marred by controversy. al jazeera. history is being made the words of eritrea's

president on his first visit to neighboring ethiopia and more than two decades it's the latest step towards reconciliation peace between the longtime rivals last weekend the leaders signed a pact to restore diplomatic and trade ties ending a twenty year military standoff let's go live now to at al-jazeera as mohammed is that after the deal was signed last week people rushed to phone their friends and family that they had been unable to speak to in what twenty years there were tweets describing it as a kin to the fall of the berlin wall the joy felt after that what's the mood there in addis ababa today mounted. well the mood is normal jubilation people are really hard all they cannot fully comprehend the speed with which things have gone just only a month ago when prime minister the new prime minister. but announced that he was

ready to accept the outcome of the algiers agreement of two thousand we've given some of the disputed land of the border between this week a border between that of three and if you have to say and say he was ready to give back with his land and was ready for a resumption of a good relations between the two countries he visited last weekend now it is visiting and they say of course did not disappoint they gave him a very warm welcome tens of thousands lined up the roads and streets between the airport on the national palace holding the flags of the two countries and many people here are really huffy that finally at a trail of homa province of ethiopia which multiple suppression in one thousand nine hundred three is back in from the corner under the tree brother national relations once again all right so the deal has been done that was a remarkable braids step not the most difficult part of this process the hard work

remains to be done what are the challenges ahead. well of course both countries have more to pain from the resumption of relations of course if you're peter morgan at a. long look at. the two points of us who are with ethiopia is really keen to start using once again over and above the use of the fourth of. the very soon they're going to start talking about the nitty gritty of what happened. those disputed lands which one had a trail which ones that we mainly you feel what's going to happen to the people who live in either end up here in ethiopia and eritrea and so many other things a little bit but i could be on the books for the fall of the policies of almost in

the war that between one thousand nine hundred and two thousand so a lot but they covered some good ground already what's on the agenda then for the rest of this this visit for eritrea as president. well the highlight of all. would be on sunday when he is going to be open the. embassy here which will look only at. the union. we know that the embassy have been cool for more than twenty years. never been here for those who do not never have been formal to come and attend a canadian summit he's also going to address thousands of people of the millennium hall here in a. speech that will be televised on the country and then there will be i think with

the prime minister dignitaries from the different countries that are created the embassies that are credited to the african union here and i mean some of them are serious mohammed atta reporting live there from them have many things to do. two people have been killed by two car car bombs near the presidential palace in somalia's capital police say that one of them went off after a gunfight at a checkpoint in mogadishu the second device was detonated in the same area a short time afterwards it was the news hour from now to syria still to come on the program the future of the iran nuclear deal we ask whether it can survive without the u.s. a force. fearing for their lives students course in the violence and the correct walk as the president's supporters rally in force. and in sports after putting controversy behind them croatia aiming for history as they head for the world cup final.

donald trump will leave scotland for finland on sunday had a plan of his planned talks with russia's vladimir putin his trip to helsinki comes as twelve russian hackers have been indicted as part of the investigation into alleged interference in the twenty sixteen u.s. presidential election al-jazeera shihab rattansi reports from washington the deputy attorney general said the twelve alleged russian intelligence officers hacked into the clinton presidential campaign and disseminated stolen information the goal of the conspirators was never in fact an election in addition to the public addresses alleges state election boards were hacked and the details of five hundred thousand voters stolen among those subsequently in touch with what the d.o.j. says was an online persona created by the russians to help spread the information

was someone in touch with the trump campaign that person according to the indictment didn't seem very impressed with the information provided and there's no evidence that the person knew they were speaking to alleged russian spies there's not a geisha in this indictment that any american citizen committed a crime there's no allegation that the conspiracy changed the phone can or affect in any election result. that was seized upon by the trumpet ministration would release a statement that said today's charges include no allegations of knowing involvement by anyone on the campaign and new allegations that the alleged hacking affected the election result this is consistent with what we have been saying all along earlier in the day donald trump it said he would ask about the allegations and i don't think you'll have any gee i did it i did it you got me there will be a perry mason here i don't think but you never know what happens right but i will absolutely firmly ask the question and the allegations are allegations possibly

never to be proven the accused russians are highly unlikely to appear before a u.s. grand jury to defend themselves over some democrats say the summit should possibly be called off there should be no one on one meeting between this president and mr putin there needs to be other americans in the room secondly the president and his team are not willing to make the facts of this indictment a top priority of the meeting in helsinki and the summit should be cancelled but deputy attorney general suggested these indictments were to come as a surprise to all from as he took team with the queen roadracing stein said briefed the president earlier this week before his trip to europe you have a chance the al-jazeera washington protests have resumed for a second day in the u.k. against u.s. president all trumps physics in scotland where trump is right now protesters are marching through the streets of edinburgh demonstrations happening in london as well where tens of thousands of protesters turned out on friday the rallies haven't apparently bothered donald trump so he has no official engagements on saturday so

he's spending the weekend playing golf at his own resort sonnier gago joins us now live from a pro trump rally in london. so how does that crowd compare in size and passion to the anti trump rally we saw in london yesterday. while. there does certainly seem to be a few allies or certainly people friends or maybe fans of donald trump here but it's certainly so far nothing in comparison to the size that we saw on friday we did see really the make up of about two different groups there's a pro trump demonstration happening that who thought that yesterday's demonstrations were an absolute disgrace and then there is another large demonstration which is really more about supporting. the rights that lead to in fact the founder of the i was so cool tony robinson who has become

a sort of poster boy of the old right here in this country and also the fans of the ultra right as well and they just so happen to also think that president trump is doing a great job talking to some of these people here this more today than they were saying how much they actually appreciated this visit and that he just says it how it is and the actual fact he was to given the real truth of breaks that when he gave that interview to a newspaper and of course a lot of them no surprise feel very betrayed by the prime minister even though she managed to finally get president trump on her side by the end of the visit people here certainly they are causing a lot remove behind the american president than they are the british prime minister here adrian so he really thinks did so he gave her life in london let's go for an empty for approach rally rather through an empty trump protests taking place right

now in scotland's capital. but right next to the scottish parliament here in the in the scottish cup it's always a first speech just getting underway by a politician but it's not just the politicians here it's rights groups right across the board really environmental groups women's rights groups and and the racist groups all gathered here as they did in gaza go in smaller numbers on friday evening to say that donald trump and his policies are not welcome we're expecting it to be fairly sizeable it is very peaceful and with that we marching through the city center past the u.s. consulate towards a park called the meadows for what they're calling a carnival of resistance it's mainly scottish protesters but also some u.s. protesters as well saturday marks the third anniversary of the iran nuclear deal the us a sense pulled out of the agreement warning that it will reinstate full sanctions in november but european leaders are trying to work with iran to say if the landmark agreement i'll just heroes kathy lopez reports. because

it was a moment many doubted would ever happen the signing of a nuclear deal with the rand. three years later its survival is very much in question european powers are doing what they can to keep the deal live but the challenges may be too difficult to overcome the iran deal is defective at its core president donald trump denounced the u.s. withdrawal in may describing the deal as one sided under the agreement iran limited its uranium stockpile and nuclear program sanctions were lifted allowing took ron to resume trading oil and gas on the international market. in germany britain france along with russia and china want to make the deal work without the u.s. but talks in vienna have led to a little progress and they may all face american sanctions if they can find a new to do business with iran but it ran on the other hand wants guarantees majnun

a case for you both what we want from the country. to sign the agreement is a clear commitment that preserves the rights of iranian its this includes all economic factors because the agreement is a nuclear political and economic deal at a nato meeting in brussels trump seemed best confident as never that iran would in the future return to the negotiating table and now they're having a lot of problems and their economy is collapsing but i will tell you this at a certain point they're going to call me and they're going to say let's make a deal and we'll make a deal but they are they're feeling a lot of pain right now. trumps administration accuses to herat of what it calls destabilizing behavior in the middle east which is one reason why iran and more specifically its role in syria is expected to feature prominently during trump's upcoming summit with russian president vladimir putin iran has said the u.s. can't be trusted to keep its commitments for now to han is focusing on maintaining

the core of the agreement and trying to limit the impact of looming think chance. of the young al-jazeera that's going to view on this now from action shall he was a senior lecturer in middle east politics at the university of bradford he's with us now live from from leeds actually good to have you with us one of the chances of european power as actually being able to save the steel to keep it alive after three years. if you do talk to rein in officials at the moment they would tell you that the europeans are certainly talking the talk but they don't walk the walk and actually when you talk to the european sides you also may appreciate that there is a limit to what they do after all major european firms and companies and businesses are primarily accountable

to their shareholders rather than their governments and in this be a very difficult and hostile climate these major european firms are much more interested to keep their options open with the largest economy in the world and that is the united states rather than con of maintaining that investment and operations within the iranian market so what happens if european nations can't keep this deal alive does it really matter i mean countries like russia china they'll continue to to to buy iranian oil. yes it doesn't matter because if the united states can't of resumes can of. of sanctions against the iranian banking sector and more importantly the energy sector is going to have a detroit mental effect on iranian economy the iranian economy is already

facing i would say an existential crisis and should the new regime of sanctions imposed by the united states economy is thought is going to make the situation extremely difficult for the iranians and quite frankly they're not going to have any incentives anymore to kind of maintain their end of the bargain the supreme leader already a short while ago a state that stated that they are actually prepared to resume your own e m enrichment and that means basically this could effectively bring an end to this historic deal which basically took the international community at least about ten years to reach although the iranians seem to be committed along the european counterparts to preserve the deal as much as they can but quite frankly i'm not sure how far they can kind of maintain their commitment because the situation

continues to be extremely difficult for for iranians and president rouhani in particular is on there a lot of pressure at the moment and some people even doubt basically if he can actually last by. if he can maintain his position by by the end of the year or so we'll have to see what happens within the next few weeks go to work you would of what the political road ramifications would be if the deal collapsed within iran would i mean is president trump bright with the sanctions bite enough to force iran back to the go seating table so that a new deal could be could be put into place. i mean over the last few months we kept hearing that from trump and trump trump administration negotiating table negotiating table negotiation or what exactly because when it

comes to iranian nuclear program irena ns have already given up their reach meant program so when it comes to that specific framework i don't know what else they need to negotiate when we do look at basically the other set of demands that the americans are making at the moment actually they no longer about kind of the nuclear related issues they are about fundamental principles of iranian foreign policy they are about iranian position in countries like syria iraq eleven on yemen and effectively it is about to reign in sovereignty and defense and city when it comes to the rainy and ballistic missiles program i very much doubt that at least in the current climate if the iranians would be willing to come to a negotiation table only yesterday a high ranking official from the islamic republic made it very clear as long as

they all those tools demands are on the table they are not interested to negotiate anything with the united states these demands are very much similar to the kind of demands that saudi arabia had with qatar about a year and a half ago they are just impossible to maintain impossible to comedy and if iran contra reaches the position of economy the doors to world demand in my opinion that would be the end of the islamic republic at least in the way that we know it today and we kind of recognize it to be because that would mean a drastic transformation a drastic transition not only in iranian foreign policy what drastic transition in major ideological issues which has justified and provided read on death for debate the existence of the islamic republic over the last forty years and should really go to receive any sex deduction show he the in leaves. time to turn up the

heat sweltering a little hot under the collar his meteorologist richard angwin with more on global temperature records which continue to fall rich is absolute game blasted all over the place at the moment adrian but while ago we're talking about the warmest summer on record down in new zealand we mentioned the highest april temperature ever recorded globally not just in pakistan but globally the highest minimum temperature ever recorded anywhere in the world forty two point six from there we went to the caucuses and all these places reporting national record temperatures from tbilisi back. all either records for the month of july or all time records full stop we don't stop there we go into north africa in algeria we had not only the highest temperature ever recorded in algeria but the highest temperature of reliably reported in africa moving across to taiwan we've also had an all time record

temperature been reported there for the last example then move across into the arabian peninsula once again and just a little time ago we had a temperature of fifty one point four reported in dubai which makes it the highest temperature ever recorded in to borrow a grateful to chris of a sea bird on the weather company first supplying a lot of that information but i think this is the sort of for cash going to see in years to come as global temperatures continue to rise. phew thanks richard you're with the news hour still to come on the program hung out to dry how the occupied west bank wants lucrative tobacco industry is no longer a money spent on the palestinians. find out why that attempt to save endangered rhinos in kenya ended in disaster. and in sports we'll tell you about the longest ever single semifinal match played to.

it's like the wild west they can do anything and the really hard for them to get the all powerful internet is both a tool for democracy and a threat somebody who controls ten thousand dollars that's unfolding a hundred thousand voices and they distort the debate in the echo chamber world of fake news in cyberspace the rules of the game have changed their presidents people and out investigates disinclination and democracy part two on al-jazeera. and monday put it on. u.s. and british companies have announced the biggest discovery of natural gas in west africa but what to do with these untapped natural resources is already a source of heated debate nothing much has changed they still spend most of their days looking forward to for the dry riverbed like this one five years on the syrians still feel battered or even those who managed to escape their country have

been truly unable to escape the war. it is good to have you with us hello adrian for the. and here in doha with the news out from of his iraq top stories israel says that it's conducting the largest daylight attack on us since the gaza war in twenty four team the military says that it struck sixty how last targets a home belonging to a commander of the palestinian puts brigade has been hit meanwhile hamas has fired more than seventy mortar bombs and rockets into southern israel some of the rockets were intercepted by israel's iron dome system there's been no reports of injuries.

iraq has placed its security forces on high alert after anti-government protests spread to the capital baghdad demonstrations began in the southern city of basra of the high unemployment the lack of basic services. back now to a story we were focusing on a little time ago donald trump's controversial controversial visit to the u.k. and the protests both for and against his visit scott lucas is a professor of international politics at the university of birmingham he joins us now live scott one could perhaps imagine britons trying to privatise that's the reason they breathing something of a sigh of relief today know the dust has begun to settle after president trump's whirlwind visit what do you make of it how much diplomatic damage has he left in his wake. well there will be no side really for tourism a because she's going to have to try to clean up the wreckage and i'm not sure she can specifically on trees i'm a what donald trump did was effectively teller you either have to choose some relationship

with the european union or you have to choose our us and that actively has rat maze compromised plan the brains of land which would maintain some trading goods with the european union to try to get a trade agreement with america that's now gone but the damage is beyond that treason is almost like collateral damage in what is apparently now a trump campaign with some good buys years to undermine nato to undermine the european union. to split alliances in other words we now see it trying to ministration at least in terms of donald trump and his close advisors not the pentagon not the intelligence services which opposite his advisors are varied not separated that far from another leader lott a mere putin in terms of the disruption they're seeking to cause in europe i want to talk to you about about president trump's meeting with vladimir putin in just a moment but first first just one more question on to reason they had ten us hold

on all the leadership of posse and therefore the premiership in britain has trumps visit hell for him to. oh we were it was started it from the outset it was meant to end or of the story behind the stories that when donald trump gave that interview to the sun tabloid he not only sighed look you have to choose between us and the e.u. he said he was a much better negotiator than juries in my undermining her authority he endorsed a rival of hers the former foreign secretary boris johnson as the next prime minister and he did that not on his own because his former chief strategist but still a trump ally steve bannon was in london working with the right wing politicians including a politician named nigel fraught the former leader of the u.k. independence party become a link they are all hard great to tears then and wants to see the breakup of the new project wants to get back into politics boris johnson must be prime minister in other words it wasn't just trump speaking off the top of his. truck predicted

yesterday that his meeting with vladimir putin would be easier than the meetings that he's had with his his allies in brussels and in the u.k. this week he says that putin is not his friend but his competitor well can we expect. you can expect a photo opportunity donald trump admires a lot of donald trump would like to be vladimir putin in the sense of being the authoritarian strongman who can command obedience you know from those troublesome people say in the media you know activists students that trump therefore will find more the finity with putin in terms of talking with them the problem is that a lot of republican and the russians know this they have game this out and they will try to exploit trump they'll try to exploit trump to suck the russian and its ocean of crimea they'll try to it's it's what trying to ease u.s. sanctions on moscow and of course they'll try to exploit trump to distance himself

even farther from europe as russia pursues a fairly aggressive foreign policy around the world professor always good still t.v. thanks dates go through because they're from the university of the. that was meant to be three days a peaceful process and the correct was turned into a bloody scene with pro-government paramilitaries surrounding student activists in the capital some of the students remain trapped in a university church where they've been live streaming that ordeal brianna sanchez reports from an hour or so much i don't know how much students behind barricades at me get i was national university. unarmed and terrified. this student lisa recorded message from her mother. you could call me on this day of national strike they would know how to defend the country but if i want to wear it i mean i know they think they're going to die and. just a few hours before government supporters followed the love they got in

most people would stop growing tobacco they should make jobs for the young generation the university graduates who helped to back up the twenty to thirty dollars a day they studied science and finance and they have to do this tobacco needs very little water to thrive palestinians have grown as in this area for generations but not on this scale they say israel's control of water inland resources means they have little choice but to grow it wherever they can the palestinian authority says unemployment in the occupied west bank has almost doubled to around nine hundred percent in the last twenty years feels like this one used to be used to grow crops like wheat and barley but not anymore before israel started building the separation wall in two thousand and two many people in this area used to work in israel but now there are villages in this area where virtually every family is in some way involved in the business. this is one of many small tobacco processing plants

in the area. farmers sell their dried leaves to traders for just over ten dollars a kilo. we were afraid the p.a. could confiscate use tobacco says this worker but others say the p.a. usually ignores them because it knows so many people depend only on regulated industry for their livelihood demand for tobacco is high. born cigarettes of five times more expensive than those locally produced but it's estimated the p.a. is missing out on tens of millions of dollars in tax revenue a year from the local tobacco industry. if we're to calculate how much of the deficit the tobacco industry would cover i'd say somewhere between twenty to thirty percent if we control the smuggled and locally produced tobacco. says he and thousands of other people have no choice but to keep growing tobacco

the final to start it's going to be one of the great smallman seen our modern history luka motivate his talent show on despite him being made a refugee during the eucharist of war in the one nine hundred ninety s. and despite the fact that investment has never been a priority in preparation for. you would think that for a country with so many world class players croatia would have world class facilities but it doesn't even have a national stadium in fact this one built during the communist era and home to dinner. is the next best thing and it hasn't had an upgrade in nearly twenty years riding a wave of public euphoria croatia's government has decided it will now build a national stadium. but within demick corruption in croatian football including a scandal over transfer fees involving luka moderates and other players diehard

fans believe a new stadium won't solve the problem the rulers of creation for the federation and the politicians. have made it extremely hard for creation to compete and the creation didn't make the world cup final because of them but in spite of them croatians may be willing to put those worries aside hoping that whatever the outcome on sunday the result will inspire the next generation and change croatian football for the better robin firstly walker al-jazeera zagreb. it's been twenty years since france's so world cup triumph and they lost in the final in two thousand and six nonetheless expectations are high this time around they can take home football's biggest prize the tasha butler reports from paris. you're never too young to be a football fan and it doesn't get better than your team making it to the world cup

than two hundred outdoor screens and for all security will be high ninety thousand fans are expected to watch the game in a fine zone at the foot of the eiffel tower if france win the world cup final thousands of pounds will come to brazil that is a and this break will be replaced with a party when france last won the world cup in one thousand nine hundred ninety eight paris his most famous interview was transformed into a street party that seemed to last for days the winning team became a symbol of multiculturalism. today's players were only children at the time star striker killem bapi wasn't even born but for the team the spirit of ninety eight lives on. yes afford to go to france is a country of many colors and origins we all feel french we're happy to weigh this jersey i'm very happy to have grown up in france to have french culture even if i left to play abroad early in that way france is beautiful it's how we love it and how we will always love it. whether or not france bring home the trophy many fans

are already proud that the team has made it this far there's no doubt though that if it tree remains the ultimate goal is to al-jazeera power. let's head over to moscow where our correspondent andy richardson is standing by and that file not taking place and and tell sunday but is there already a big build up french and creation fans and moscow. they're starting to make themselves seen and heard at the top of her nicole scar street in the middle of moscow which is coming on an unofficial meeting point for fans from all over the world i think a feature of this world cup has been the number of south american fans that have made it over here most of them have now gone home not all of them even though their teams of ivan are going out of the tournament not as many european fans were starting to see a lot of creation fans at least just gathering here in central moscow for the french fans but it seems they're going to a familiar feeling now this is the third world cup final they've been through in

the last six editions as for courage of our own what a story. they got to the world cup semifinals in that first year is an independent nation back in one nine hundred ninety eight and now here they are with this new generation of players some of whom just coming towards the end of peak years the new come on church even rocket to this their one chance really of winning this world title and i think the buildup for them is really about how well they've recovered from their three knockout games all of which should go into extra time so they've affectively played an extra ninety minutes in extra match when compared to france which animals on a day less to recover they also go into this final. knowing they've never beaten france in their history ok so gianni and thinks you know that such a president thinks this is the best world cup ever if you write. i mean future presidents do you have a habit. you know i wasn't born but by all accounts the one nine hundred seventy

world cup is is way ahead of of all of the additions in terms of terms of quality and drama we've had some great stories here haven't we germany going out of the group stages caught everyone by surprise some fantastic games belgium three japan to four three game between argentina and france and of course the story of russia as well a team that was a little expected of them and they made it through to the quarterfinals and knocked out spain along the way i think what we're waiting for now is a classic final the last couple of finals haven't been great decided by a single goal in extra time so hopefully creation france can can finish off this tournament in some style one of the talking points around these finals ongoing is whether or not the next world cup will be a forty eight team addition or thirty two team competition as we've seen here in russia south american countries are pushing for an expansion in france you know himself says he remains open to the idea i've been talking to qatar twenty twenty two years and i'm assistant secretary general his take on the issue. before the

side of that it's a good idea to include forty eight teams in the world cup study from twenty twenty six so they believe that there's a merit in it come a ball has put the proposal forward for one reason or the other they must feel that it's beneficial for the south american football confederation so i'm not frustrated as much as i feel that we need to basically be careful and look at the feasibility of understand what the implications are before any decision is taken and we you know we were glad that the first taken the decision to wait until the fuse of both the studies done but right now you're preparing for a thirty two team world cup all our preparations since they would have been for thirty to two. world cup and they continued to be for thirty two team world cup talking to the locals here they said the police have had a kind of an unusually liberal approach to sort of looking after the world cup found perhaps sort of let people drink on the streets congregate on the streets in a way that normally wouldn't happen at a similar policy taking place and cats aren't for us but i think when

a country is hosting a huge event it's an unusual circumstance and you can't compare it to the usual day to day life in any given country well as long as the laws are. not broken as long as people are abiding to acceptable norms i think we won't have any issues i think a lot of people change their perceptions about russia jihad perhaps preconceptions people have about cats or in the middle east will change when it comes to world cup well if there are people out there who have misconceptions i'm sure that when they visit qatar for the first time they'll change their their minds and. there's a lot of people that have visited the middle east so know what the middle east is about for us it's important is that it's very intimate that football is celebrated cultural cultures are celebrated our similarities and differences are celebrated and that people just have a really good time and people learn something. well that's still

a long way off four years almost exactly now what is just a few minutes away is the game that probably not the team really wants to be taking part in the ice playoff between england and belgium is taking place and simply just being pretty harshly by the team is pretty strong making just two changes from the start it was beaten by francois how he came to be starting to handle and maybe looking to cement his position at the top the goal scoring chance. richardson reporting high from moscow while i talk to you later. we're into the deciding sad to rafa nadal and know what jock which is semifinal showdown at wimbledon this much current be finished on friday because the other semi ran so long the winner faces kevin anderson in sunday's final. and that it's all your support for now i'll be back with more later but for now it's back to you adrian from anything that will do it for at this particular but i'll be back to
