about it. to world news. one of the biggest problems facing our oceans and the loss of seagrass meadows one check rule for roughly fifteen percent of the ocean's total carbon storage perhaps
11:41 am
or they hoped why for so much carbon dioxide as rain forests and they're also question marine habitats for many endangered oceans these things. but here on al corn slew in central california the tide could be turning for seagrass thanks to some unexpected allies. trying to meet their. 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 ocean on what what impact does that have on the water quality well anywhere where you get coastal environments close to urban centers coastal environments close. you get problems like this.
11:42 am
it grows the tarp the rocks it eventually starts the composing over half of the world so. 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
11:43 am
smaller invertebrates like sea slugs to thrive and these creatures are crucial for the health of seagrass eating algal build up on the leaves they allow sunlight to reach the plants. because sea 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. so the farmer here worked really well. she was probably very close. what's the purpose of tropical 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 just so we can understand the distribution of orders in this area what are they eating how are they doing health wise there is one right there that's three four nine six so that beeping is an arm that peeping is from the radio
11:44 am
transmitter that's surgically implanted in her help system ok. why don't you take a look yeah you're 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 turns the tables against. groupings of facts of sea auditors meaning crowd especially the seen grass an advantage again so if we introduce top predators like sea otters to ecosystems around the world will it have a knock on effect 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
11:45 am
a system that we wiped out we have a great potential for restoring the health of that system. cape town's water running out. of flora she said people should use no more than fifty liters of top water per person per day. of pounds a third of the city's residents live in informal settlements like this one and you can see in about four percent of the water with the generations they've already been collecting it and communal taps all sources say the city will reach daisy on the ninth of july that's when they'll turn off the water in the homes to have it be the communal times will stay on. the city's taps of fed by reservoirs this is one of the largest. because als gala where four years ago they would have been on the

11:50 am
a hamas urban warfare training facility with a tunnel underneath there were also civilians nearby israel says they were warned in advance of the strike i mean just smaller rocket was fired first at the roof a knock it's called but the people there said they didn't understand this warning instead some rushed to help thinking someone had been injured. these two teenagers were among that group they were killed when israel second a much more powerful strike came in since friday evening israel's military has hit more than forty targets across garza. total to move some of it in consultations with the defense minister the military chief of staff and top security forces we decided on a powerful action against hamas terrorism the israeli army delivered its most painful strike against a mass since the twenty fourteen war it also released a video of what it says was the destruction of a tunnel near the border with egypt. israel has been frustrated for weeks now by
11:51 am
century burning balloons and burning kites that drift over the border during friday protests and set fire to israeli crops prime minister benjamin netanyahu has been under enormous domestic pressure particularly from border communities to do something to stop them and israel has threatened. to harm us if you do not stop these kites we will get back and this seems to be that retaliation. dozens of rockets have been fired by armed groups from gaza towards israel a few have been intercepted by israel's iron dome system and usually hamas has claimed sole responsibility for some of the rockets fired israel's air strikes follow friday's protests which are now in their fourth month a fifteen year old palestinian was shot dead when israel says he tried to climb the fence the mainly peaceful protests began as an attempt to persuade israel to lift its twelve year long blockade of gaza but israel has not made any concessions and that's led to enormous frustration amongst garza's almost two million people burn
11:52 am
it's made out of syria gaza. days of violent process in haiti have given way to political uncertainty the prime minister. surprised many when he decided to step down right in the middle of a parliamentary session crowds that turned against him even after he abandoned a plan to raise fuel prices from port au prince his gave elizondo. he arrived to parliament as a prime minister facing his political fate and calls to resign jacques de la phone tones unpopular fuel price hike which she abruptly suspended after riots a week ago that his government in deep crisis the chamber of deputies had planned to force the prime minister out with a no confidence vote on saturday. abruptly resigned instead of who you know before even coming here i sent my letter of resig. nation to the president.
11:53 am
the resignation had a week of political tension in haiti most people from the middle class to the poor say the prime minister who had only been in office seventeen months needed to go and the calls for him to do so grew louder by the day that the gas price hike and reversal were just seen as another sign of an ineffective government his eventual downfall came on a day of tension in the capital. the streets there were protests not nearly as large as the ones last week that turned violent but still anger at the government and coals for more resignations delay oh you know you have. this is also a message to the lawmakers a warning to everyone we're telling them to be very careful our problem is not only with the ex prime minister but to everyone in this corrupt system including the president. was going on in parliament it to have confusion members of the chamber of deputies yelling at each other as they debated the prime minister's
11:54 am
future before they knew he was going to step down but after calm was restored in the prime minister resigned they focused on what it all meant. now we need a new government one that inspires confidence with all sectors we need someone who understands the political dynamic that works across the board we need big changes that can have systemic. haiti currently now has no functioning government right now now that law on top has stepped down all of his ministers go with him so what happens next it will be the president as well as the two heads of the parliament that will decide who the next prime minister will be. left parliament quickly after stepping down without taking questions the country now hoping the political chaos of the last week also goes with him gabriel's sandow. port au prince the spanish coast guard has rescued three hundred forty refugees and migrants adrift in the straits of gibraltar they were found on board twelve dinghies among them one
11:55 am
hundred children since the start of this year around one thousand south and people have arrived in spain from north africa that's more than arrived in the country in the whole of twenty seventeen. thousands of people have been rallying against donald trump across the u.k. but he has made it clear he wants to stay on as president for a whole lot longer in an interview with the mail newspaper he said he plans to stand for the presidency again in twenty twenty he told the paper it seems like everybody wants me to he went on to talk about the lack of competition from the democrats saying i know them all and i don't see anybody. all this as big crowds turned out in scotland to protest against trump's presence at the golf course here and some demonstrators stood at the edge of the course in turnberry an airshow to heckle trumpets he played a round of golf thousands also marched against his visit in the scottish capital edinburgh trump has no more official getting engagements in the u.k. . and the risk of
11:56 am
a small pro trump rally in london far right groups showed their support for the u.s. president many wearing red hats with the slogan make britain great again they called on the u.k. to adopt trump's anti immigration policies and praise what they called a strong and decisive leadership well mr trump flies on to finland later on sunday for talks with the russian president that he may put in trump insists he will meet putin alone but that is worrying some diplomats more from our diplomatic editor james pays. helsinki a city that joining the cold war was used as one of the few places where western allies and the soviet union could talk some believe relations are almost at a cold war level again yet one leader keeps talking up the positive and i said putin may be the easiest of them all you never know the biggest blow to relations was russia's seizure of crimea from ukraine the first time
11:57 am
a part of one country had been stolen by another in europe since world war two at the time it was condemned by the us nato and the you. however in recent days at two news conferences in belgium and the u.k. president trump was asked if russia should give back crimea and each time he dodged the question what will happen with crimea from this point on that i can't tell you well we'll have to see what happens far from here the syrian war seems to be entering its final phases the assad regime would support from its allies iran and russia has the upper hand the u.s. and israel want to reduce iranian presence in the country and its influence in the region could there be a grand bargain in the works. only days ago israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu was in moscow putin could perhaps persuade a sad to ask iran to leave his country trump could lift objections to russia's
11:58 am
control of crimea far fetched perhaps but just listen to the way the ukrainian ambassador to the u.n. is clinging to previous statements by members of the u.s. administration on crimea i think that. that will come from several times by boat by many many other u.s. officials from. mr bolton to the the the the spokesman for the white house and many other. officials who confirmed that the principal ballers who yes wolf they've assumed that the illegally fish no crimea but i should never be recognized remarkably for part of this summit in finland's presidential palace trump is likely to meet putin alone just as he did in singapore with kim jong un in june the u.s. is closest allies are worried what this most unpredictable president might agree to behind these walls james pays al-jazeera helsinki security forces are on high alert

across cities in iraq's southern provinces as anger spreads over unemployment and corruption on saturday for test a storm the provincial government building in the holy city of karbala as barbara. broken burnt out. this is the damage after protesters stormed the airport and the ruling party's headquarters at natura just a day before there were scenes of chaos security forces have been put on alert across the country to prevent further disruption and there has a lot of damage was what happened yesterday is that a group of vandals into the airport or a group of infiltrators with the protesters into peer port and they smashed the computers and the x. ray scanners that are used for security inspections and they smashed the counters and a lot of the important technical equipment and. protesters say there's no reason
12:00 pm
why they should be living in poverty in an oil rich region. this is not a protest it's a revolution by the youth of not just the iraqi people have had enough nobody should tell you that this protest is linked to any political party or anyone controlling or giving instructions these are the people of not just youth and tribal men. critics of iraq's government say economic problems have accumulated over many years and the government has done little to make life of its people easier and to add to growing grievances regional proxy wars maybe playing a role in the deteriorating living conditions of many ordinary iraqis. iran is playing a major role in that because since it has been sanctioned by by the united states put.
