help to fight the flames as wildfires knew of the greek capital turned deadly. it's just amazing how many children are born through the phrase. also ahead forty years on the medical marvel who was the world's first baby. on order in favor of cats are in the case brought against the united arab emirates the international court of justice says measures taken by the u.a.e. as a result of its blockade of doha amount to racial discrimination it says cattery families split from relatives in the u.a.e. should be reunited the u.a.e. is one of four countries that impose an air land and sea blockade against castle more than a year ago neve barco reports from the hague. qatar's legal battle with the united

arab emirates has dealt a defining blow the international court of justice says the measures taken by the u.a.e. after the blockade of qatar amount to racial discrimination according to. the u.a.e. has failed to respect the obligation is the i.c.j. order of the u.a.e. immediately to allow qatari families expelled from the country to be reunited students to finish their studies and those qatari affected access to courts and tribunals the order said the i.c.j. president is compulsory the core of clear fairness that this all of that is on. is and that article forty one of these that. effect. and that's a international legal obligation is for any part to her the provisional measure is that it's last june the u.a.e. saudi arabia bahrain and egypt sever diplomatic ties with qatar and imposed

a land sea and air blockade accusing catarrh of funding extremism accusations it denies qatar says its citizens were either illegally expelled or denied access to the u.a.e. separating families and denying people access to health care education their properties in assets of course the u.a.e. is the only one of the four countries to have imposed a blockade on cattle but it's the only one out of the four to be brought here before the international court of justice why because it's the only country out of the four that signed up to the international convention on the elimination of all forms of racial discrimination but bahrain egypt and saudi arabia will be watching this case closely and drawing their own conclusions this is a statement that there is a likelihood of discrimination so one would think that the other states in the region would say that means something again likely that this is a violation in earlier hearings the u.a.e.

denied any policy of expulsion saying it's measures were designed to have the least possible impact on ordinary citizens it said his argument was with the qatari government not the qatari people but the u.a.e. must comply with the court or face further legal action qatar could go to the u.n. security council and demand an informant order this is one of a string of legal challenges mounted by qatar to try and end the blockade a ruling the country will welcome but whether it will help end the blockade now in its fourteenth month is less certain nieve back at al-jazeera the hague. ok joining us here on the news. saying is an expert on politics from the truman national security project that's a think tank that studies foreign policy issues she is also formerly an advisor to the u.s. president barack obama she joins us from washington hussein does this mean that people will actually be reunited with their families and their loved ones this

is a very significant ruling by the international court of justice there are fifteen judges that weighed in on this decision eleven of those fifteen judges ruled in qatar's favor on three main issues the first issue was the issue of reuniting families that have been separated as a result of this inhumane blockade the second is to allow students who have had their studies interrupted as a result of the blockade to either continue their studies or obtain their records and the third is to allow qatari citizens to own property in the emirates to be able to access judicial systems in order to pursue their rights within the united arab emirates and we've seen this disregard for the rights of the qatari people i think it was very illuminating that the statement by the united arab emirates government said that this was a blockade against the government of qatar not the people of the people of qatar

and yet we see how the people have been impacted day in and day out crucially those countries that the united arab emirates how do you think they will view this how are they looking in on this. i have no doubt that they find this to be a very alarming decision because we know that the qatari s. have acquired many talented attorneys and law firms in the united states and around the world to fight this blockade and all of the legal implications of it and i think that it's very commendable that the qatari government is essentially fighting back but they're not using violent means they're using legal means just to purely defend the rights of their citizens of their people and i think that the other parties to the blockade saudi arabia bahrain egypt should be concerned because i don't think that this bodes well for their legal future before the i.c.j.

before the i.c.c. at the hague if there's more legal action won't take. well there is definitely going to be more legal action and we know that there's already been challenges to. the question about whether or not the blockading countries have the right to deny the qatari overfly raids and we know that that is a matter of controversy the saudis and egyptians and the rest of the blockading countries claim that they have a provision within international law that is essentially a national security loophole but if their national security is threatened that they are able to deny these rights to qatar and so that's what they're trying to claim and that's why we hear time and time again from the saudis that qatar's the sponsor of the muslim brotherhood of al nusra and so on and so forth but it's very interesting because a lot of these claims there haven't been substantial evidence of that as we all

know there are you know many organizations that operate in all of those countries that are implementing the blockade and me for example bahrain itself has the muslim brotherhood in their parliament and so it's obviously an clearly a joke when these countries are claiming that qatar is somehow harboring misbehavior when there they've done it themselves and in fact the international community quite recently has commended qatar for its cooperation in the war against terror and it's such an important partner for the united states of america in fighting in syria. saying they're in washington thank you. the whole sterling which was in the u.s. and iran is getting louder iran's foreign minister has responded with the words be cautious to a tweet in capital letters from the u.s. president donald trump he was warning of consequences quotes few throughout history

have suffered the trading of threats comes less than two weeks before the u.s. we imposed sanctions on iran coverage starts with the same bus ravi from tehran. the united arab emirates has dealt a defining blow the international court of justice says the measures taken by the u.a.e. after the blockade of qatar amount to racial discrimination apologise for that we'll get back to that report a little later if we can from xen bus ravi let's talk now to she have joining us out of our bureau in washington so clearly donald trump is rattled he's reacting to what he sees as a desire for intimidation and anger on the part of the tehran leadership what's your sense as to where this might go she. well we should be clear though that john adds a reef tweet that you mentioned when he said be cautious in capital letters he was simply mimicking donald trump's conclusion to his tweet late late sunday night so

in some ways it was it was rather a wry mocking of donald trump suit actually much of a serious tweet was was was rather mocking in tone color us unimpressed he said an all in all caps like donald trump's tweet was that it says here the world heard even harsher bluster a few months ago and iranians have heard them all bit more civilized ones for forty years we've been around for millennia and seen full of empires including our own which lasted more than the life of some countries and then be cautious but clearly it was a warning but was also rather a. vaguely you know that sort of gallows humor in that in that particular tweet how serious is this where the white house press secretary was presenting donald trump's tweet certainly is purely in keeping with donald trump's policy to iran since day one she said that the only goal of donald trump is to keep nuclear weapons out of the hands of the iranians and the safety of the american people but we have to remember that the trumpet ministration has changed quite a bit just in the last few months john bolton is now

a national security advisor might compare secretary of state both hardliners on iran and john bolton certainly ever since we began interviewing him on al-jazeera ten years ago some ten years ago i think that there's never been an interview we've done with him where it hasn't ended with him advocating the bombing of iran so all they don't trouble we never know quite what his motivations are perhaps he really does think he can negotiate a better deal with the iranians we do know that those around him who are advising him have long held gender is to try and achieve regime change in iran almost by any means necessary so that's what's a worrying i think is there any chance that those sanctions won't be reimposed in two weeks time i guess that date is kind of focusing minds in the united states. and we've already seen some softening from the administration because it has been difficult it has given the sanctions have been greeted with universal hostility by the u.s. is normal. russia and china nervous so we're now seeing the u.s.

say oh well maybe we'll look at things in a case by case basis maybe a reduction in oil in iranian oil imports will be in essence will be sufficient to satisfy us from countries who still buy iranian oil so we see that softening but that doesn't mean that this won't bite because even if governments and we understand that the europeans and the russians are saying look we'll support companies that continue to do business with iran don't worry that isn't necessarily enough for the companies themselves who are making their own decisions to cut trading with iran so they will have an effect it's very unlikely that the sanctions will be called off or anything those will no doubt be going ahead but there there is a softening on the u.s. position at least to some extent but we're also hearing lots of noises in europe that there are lots of negotiations going on behind the scenes perhaps to try and ensure that however much the sanctions bite the iranians do remain in the nuclear

agreement whatever the u.s. goes and as far as donald trump's tweets concerned it's perhaps worth restating he sent it out just after eleven thirty pm local time but his critics might say hang on he's lashing out because he feels so cornered because of all the other stuff that's going on in the legal sphere to do with the mother investigation the questions after helsinki the questions about russian collusion and he does have a track record of kind of hitting off in one direction when he feels threatened from another direction. right and certainly in the immediate aftermath of that tweets that was a popular argument from pundits who have to come to me just decisions on what's going on and donald trump's brain partly just to fill air time i suppose and often those those immediate analyses out turned out to be pretty flawed. that doesn't seem to be the case in the in this particular instance because if he was trying to

distract from helsinki and from his legal troubles then he would probably not be tweeting as he has been all day about helsinki and his legal troubles so there doesn't seem to be some drawing up strategy here and as always with donald trump i have to should caution that a lot of the analysis we see of all trumps tweets is completely speculative nonsensical perhaps those who are closest to don't consider those who cover donald trump more closely than all of us who actually speak the dollar drum on background i mean their impression is always look don't try act as donald trump acts and how he's always acted you saw that was the simplest explanations or sometimes the most plausible when it comes to don't trust his motivations for tweeting something at some some late hour in the evening you don't necessarily have to start thinking conspiratorially or expect him to have some long term strategy behind any one of his tweets she has thanks a lot ok that's the picture from washington let's go back to what's going on in the iranian capital tehran here's a bus robbery

a late night tweet from the american commander in chief to the iranian president was a textbook example of donald trump's twitter diplomacy a warning in all caps the u.s. president is angry never threaten america again he said or else. now give me hussein is a senior iranian national security official and says trump is really angry at himself. americans have been trying for two to three years now to convince other countries to confront iran instead of cooperating with iran but they haven't succeeded even that commercial partners like the europeans and china they clearly announce they won't go with the sanctions naturally russia won't cooperate nor will other countries in our opinion america is angry because it is an isolated itself and it feels that it remains alone against iran. at the center of this latest escalation in the war of words is trump's vow to block the sale of

iranian oil the country's biggest money maker earlier this month rouhani threatened to respond by disrupting international shipping lanes in the strait of hormuz an important part of the region's oil supply chain in or. is it wise that while we have shores under our control we will not be able to export oil and other countries will this is not smart. in a speech on sunday u.s. secretary of state mike pompei o took aim at iran's leaders the level of corruption wealth among or a leader shows that iran is run by something that resembles the mafia more than a government it has to be said that many iranians would be just as critical of their own government the wealth gap is getting bigger and complaints of corruption are caught but for every anti-government protest by nature or by design there have been bigger pro-government routes some people specifically mention general qassam so the money a senior revolutionary guard commander who many here consider a national hero speak english he's been part of iran's campaign against

immortalized in this twenty seventeen animated film it depicts a military victory against u.s. naval forces with leading the charge. for many iranians this is the inevitable conclusion of american hostility towards their country and even peace makers here agree the closer these two sides come to open conflict. the harder it will be to walk down. the old a zero. plenty more still to come here on al-jazeera including syria's not happy it's condemning as criminal the evacuation of white helmet rescuers and the families. of the top french politicians on the scrutiny for his handling of the crisis over presidential bodyguard filmed a protest. and sports news the backlash from this photo op has prompted one of the world's top footballers to quit his national squad.

volunteers they say in a statement that the targeting of the white helmets by the syrian regime has been systematic and well documented since our formation two hundred fifty one volunteers have been killed they say in the line of duty the volunteers evacuated on sunday continued to serve their communities until the last possible minute however the occupation of the area by the syrian regime made this work impossible meanwhile the government in damascus and its ally russia have stepped up their offensive in i still controlled areas in the south west stephanie decker has more now from the israeli occupied golan heights. we've been witnessing an intense air campaign throughout the day also heavy shelling on this area behind us which is essentially the only opposition held area left in southwestern syria is controlled by a group affiliated with ice so there is no negotiations on the table for them certainly at the moment we've seen small groups of people trying to seek shelter close to

rocks close to the fence the fence that demarcates these really occupied golan heights with the syrian side the war is very close here and it really does look like the syrians together with the russians are really pushing this campaign forward now to try and retake the entire area of southwest syria the israeli army here more on more alert certain that we've seen in the past couple of weeks more soldiers monitoring the area taking pictures earlier on monday morning rockets sirens were heard here is that gives you an indication of just how close the fighting is now in iraq kurdish security forces have killed three suspected eisel fighters who are tight the governor's building in a bill the gunman fired at guards before entering the building and taking hostages place a security forces around the building were targeted by a suicide bomber a government employee was killed and two policemen were wounded as the seat of the

kurdish regional government. in a controversial move the u.k. government has decided not to object to the u.s. seeking the death penalty for two suspected british members of eisel alexander and . are accused of executing several captives including journalists while part of what i saw in syria human rights groups of criticized the move because britain abolished the death penalty more than fifty years ago let's go now to matthew you know he's a former prosecutor and author of the execution as told he joins us from pittsburgh in pennsylvania matthew good to talk to you again so on the one hand this is either a legal hypocrisy or it's a legal reality which is it well it looks as though it's legal hypocrisy i mean you're either in favor of the death penalty or you're not in favor of the death penalty you can't begin after fifty years of.

steadfastly being opposed to the death penalty to start to carve out exceptions to that even if it is for purposes of terrorism i still think it's a departure from a longstanding and often. looked upon among other european countries as a a strong steadfast position could it be that the u.k. just wants these two individuals gone because according to the leaked letter that popped up in the daily telegraph newspaper yesterday morning london time the home secretary missed a jab at his his logic his rationale seems to be that the prosecution of these two individuals will be easier and more efficient if it's done in the united states. well there is no question that that would be the case because the united states has a mechanism to pursue the death penalty in appropriate cases the federal government

has a death penalty statute it hasn't been used quite frankly much over the last twenty thirty years but the statute does exist that's if we if the united states was going to try these cases in a civil criminal courtroom there's other options as well these individuals could be transferred to guantanamo bay where they can be held without being charged and there have been obviously a number of individuals held for an extended period of time at guantanamo bay as a result of being an enemy combatant to the united states or being known terrorists this doesn't set a precedent the u.k. we understand has done similar things in the past all those difficult kind of name a number when it happened and what precisely happened but this principle morality softened a little bit if this happens because the chances are surely that this this this

proposition will not be rescinded well yeah i think it goes to the core of. principle you know the u.k. has has taken a principled position for more than a half a century. the death penalty a wanting assurances from other countries before extradition. and i think we lost the line to pittsburgh we've got the gremlins and on this news we'll move on. italy's foreign minister says migrants rescued from the mediterranean will be allowed to come ashore while the e.u. nations tackle the issue of migration it to these new government has taken a hard line on migration and is turned away ships belonging to aid agencies carrying migrants in over the next five weeks e.u. countries will discuss migrants rescued at sea can be distributed across the rest of europe forty migrants remain stranded on

a police radio he was supposed to be just an observer but mobile phone footage later showed him wearing a riot police helmet and visor tackling a demonstrator. suspended for just two routes he was back on the security detail when the french football team returned in triumph to paris with the world cup. french deputies of the national assembly on monday cross-examined interior minister gerard calame why did it take two and a half months before a prosecution was brought against the bodyguard he sounded like he was passing the buck. the office of the president under police protection i think only syria information to take action i considered as the facts that were flagged were being dead too easy appropriate clever so i did not get involved further in this issue when president was elected last year he promised to bring a new face to the say with accountability and transparency but opposition m.p.'s

saying he's proving the opposite. the hearing of the interior minister that lasted two and a half hours confirmed the worst suspicions we had namely that there is in fact a parallel structure in our country which would fall under the presidency of the republic. banal or had just been assigned a luxury flat on the banks of the senate reserved for employees at the least say as well as a chauffeur driven car before finding himself in police custody as for president mackerel ready accused of being elitist by his enemies and out of touch with ordinary people he's seen his popularity ratings drop to just thirty nine percent they may have further to fall david chaytor al jazeera terrorists. on the other so the break will have these stories for you hoping for peace and some much needed supplies in gaza but will and uneasy truce between hamas and israel hold long enough to allow that. more public sector workers join the strike in venezuela.

welcome back you're watching al-jazeera live from doha let's just have a quick trip through your top stories the u.n. spies court has ruled in favor of cattle in the case it was against the united arab emirates the international court of justice says the measures taken by the u.a.e. after the blockade against cata amount to racial discrimination iran's foreign minister is warning the u.s. president to be cautious after donald trump threatened iran with severe consequences on twitter tensions between the two countries have escalated since the u.s. withdrew from iran's nuclear deal in may and said it will reimpose economic sanctions . campaigning has ended in the pakistani election candidates now mom has called a day of silence as more than one hundred million people prepared to go to the polls on weapons day the campaign dogged by violence and claims of vote rigging.

differences and we hope that can be done but since the start of the crisis qatar has not only ramped up its business. capability is but has also expanded its security and political operation with key allies such as the us france and the u.k. and this is quite crucial for qatar at a time when it continues to face a blockade imposed on it by its neighbors the blockading countries have dismissed international mediation they say qatar must first stop funding extremism close a turkish military base downgrade its ties with iran and shut down the al-jazeera news network qatar has strongly denied the accusations and called the demands a violation of its sovereignty despite the crisis it has signed major arms deals including the purchase of twenty four typhoon combat aircraft from the u.k. as part of the deen pilots from the two countries will protect the skies above
