twelve boys in their football coach go missing deep in a cave in northern timer with rising floodwaters rescuers are running out of time and want to be inside story of time and extraordinary came on al-jazeera. zero. zero i maryam namazie this is the news hour live from london coming up in the next sixty minutes opponents of the former cricketer imran khan rejects the election results in pakistan value and protest and demanding a new vote to palestinians including a fourteen year old boy are killed in the latest protest along the gaza israel border. and blood moon rising all eyes to the sky for the longest eclipse of this century. i'm going to get

a sports including thomas closed in on his first tour de france win with just two days left of the rice. a group of opposition political parties have rejected the results of pakistan's general election following allegations of vote rigging and on the meddling of a ruling party conceded defeat paving the way for cricket turned politician imran khan to become the next prime minister but the opposition alliance say they'll take to the streets until a new vote is held well this is how the results stand at the moment khan's pakistan . party is leading with one hundred sixteen seats his closest rival the ruling pm the jailed former prime minister nawaz sharif has managed to get sixty three seats the party of the assassinated former prime minister benazir bhutto now headed by has son has got forty three and the smaller parties combined are forty five

will to form a government khan needs coalition partners to get that majority of one hundred thirty seven seats out there is a has the latest now from the capital islamabad. although imran khan is gone for a day and that he would inform the neg. the operation is now to launch nationwide protests once the declared election considered an island war and one third relation and pockets on dead threatening to wage protest on the streets saying that david bordeaux all the political parties support however there is no consensus within the opposition one of the major political parties the buggers down people's party to. go that son of a one time prime minister of don boehner did go that he would try to convince the opposition that they must follow the parliamentary procedure and that of course

means divisions within the opposition if the opposition and they were good brings. pressure on the government it would mean more political instability but there is no turning back on emraan khan's rake and ridge ball when they're trying now it's strong and it's here like need to dig within the next few weeks. so what do we know about imran khan and his policies the tasha good name has more now on the man poised to leave pakistan. imran khan has lived many lives he's been a world cup cricketer a philanthropist and a long time opposition leader for two decades he's tried to disrupt pakistan's entrenched political system often plagued by corruption scandals now as the leader of the largest political party he's poised to become prime minister pakistanis may soon find out if khan has the ability to deliver on promises of transforming their

country. i promise that i will control the corruption and i will prove that we can have such a government here to where our ministers would be scared of engaging in. option as our national accountability bureau will prosecute anyone including prime minister the ministers as it happens in the west. in addition to fighting corruption khan has promised to tackle poverty and improve access to health care and education but some have criticized khan for supporting the death penalty for blasphemy and legislation they say would persecute a minority muslim movement khan has been critical about the u.s. war in afghanistan and the use of drones within pakistan's border. problem with. the united states is. the sort of core war we. want to start with believe that it is that isn't coming there is a focus on what i was in

a recent campaign appearance contoured supporters he understands critiquing government from the sidelines is much easier than implementing lasting change. easy solutions. an easy solution to the problems that pakistanis faced with does not exist nobody should take it that the money fester we have introduced could be easily implemented we need to change the system of governance completely. if khan assumes office allegations of election fraud and military interference will trail him but for now it appears his vow that it will no longer be politics as usual in pakistan seems to have resonated with voters natasha al-jazeera. khan is a visiting research fellow at the cato institute's defense and foreign policy department she joins me now from washington thank you very much for speaking to us so the result so fossa jess that iran khan's p.t.i.

policy has gained the most seats in the national assembly but not enough to avoid going into a coalition how quickly or efficiently will he be able to form a government. well thank you for having me i think this is sort of absolutely main priority he has to form a coalition fast and he has to do that though he has to do that as the first thing so he's already appointed john who's a very savvy politician who's joined in two thousand and thirteen he sort of appointed him to talk to various parties that have one small number of seats to sort of get them to join their seats with backs that they can sell off so for now there's been some reports of the with either men or m.q.m. from karachi that has won six seats that they would actually give their succeeds to p.t.i. so there's been some talk of other parties perhaps aligning with. iran

but this is something that he has to move on fast and we've had strong claims and allegations from iran khan's political rivals today they are demanding a fresh election will this kind of grouping of opposition parties be able to maintain a united position how might they challenge the result. well i think it's been really interesting that they're asking for a reelection in a way it's very disheartening as well i mean of course there have been allegations of election being elections being rigged there was a great deal of military interference in the elections as well but at the same time it seems that p.t.i. has won as many seats or a lot of seats to form a form of government so i think the opposition is sort of just doing this to show that they can and does show that they're against rigging but i think in a matter of a couple of weeks they will all sort of come around the dust will settle and they'll all sort of come together to form

a parliament i don't think reelections are going to happen never happened before and i think that iraq is going to eventually hopefully convince them to form a government because a hung parliament would be something that isn't that that is in no one's interest pakistan is on the verge of an economic crisis how urgently does the next government need to address this. i think after forming a coalition the next thing that i'm absolutely has to do is to address the economy and you're absolutely right pakistan is on the verge of financial crisis and they have a huge balance of payment problem and just about two weeks ago the national highway authority was and able to pay the china pakistan economic order door contractors of five billion dollars that they were all would sign is already behind in their payments on electricity to chinese powers to chinese power plants so this is a is a huge problem and some of it is because of the loans that that china has given by

this than some of it is because of pakistan sort of i would say anomic mismanagement but if this is not addressed soon this is going to be a huge issue mainly because of the people of pakistan back sun is experiencing a youth bulge and there are at least sixty four percent of the population is under the age of twenty nine and they need jobs so if the country goes in a financial crisis it's going to jeopardize a lot of people's economic mobility are we appreciate your analysis on this story so hard on joining us there from washington well now two palestinians including a fourteen year old boy have been killed in the latest friday protest at the gaza israel border both were shot in the head by israeli soldiers gaza health ministry officials say at least another two hundred forty five people were injured stephanie decker reports from gaza they keep coming eighteen weeks into these protests and even though the numbers may be decreasing their demands remain the

same lift the siege let us live like everyone else. we are suffering there is no electricity no water people are going hungry it's painful to keep standing we will come here to show the whole world we want our rights. there is. again just as a civilian people did in gaza strip we are to be. god says yes this is. the key to this is god's is. yes and this is a dream of ours this is military this is going to try to deal with all of this sets for you are going to this is an annuity from from the road from you can you get the drugs right through. israel's been using these drones to drop tear gas further back into the crowd closer to the fence israeli snipers keep watch and sporadically open fire on the hospitals now used to a steady influx every friday there is

a well established pattern now similar scenes playing out every friday what is different now however is the escalating tensions between israel and hamas and there been intensive diplomatic efforts underway by egypt and the united nations to try to find a solution for everyone we speak to says the same thing the only solution is to improve life for the people here israel's demanded that hamas put an end to the burning quite some balloons that were born out of these protests they've burned thousands of acres of land on the other side of the fence a mass says they are a legitimate form of resistance against a suffocating seach there's been less however over the past few weeks now as these fridays come and go a political solution that benefits the people of gaza remains elusive stephanie decker al-jazeera gaza meanwhile the gates of the compound in occupied east jerusalem have been reopened they were closed for three hours following clashes with palestinian wash. stun grenades and tear gas were used to

disperse crowds had gathered for friday prayers or entry into the mosque which is one of islam's holiest sites was prevented under simmons' us this update from outside the al aqsa mosque and occupied east jerusalem. this is one of the main approaches to the al aqsa mosque compound and it was closed along with four others a five hour standoff with the security forces in which they actually surrounded this entire area with barricades and when they were lifted this was the scene right here so many protesters who've been praying outside the mosque here to protest also and try to get past the cauldron is being managed by the israeli please it was a negotiated end to what had been a very tense atmosphere inside the compound there had been an attack because it was described by the custodians of this mosque complex that's wax on behalf of the

jordanians they said it had been an invasion by the israeli security forces however it's a go to forces were accusing some people of throwing rocks and throwing fireworks and that was the reason why backup was called and so many security forces opened fire or with sound grenades and also some tear gas at one point and people were told to evacuate evacuate the building evacuate the whole complex but many refuse not lead to a situation whereby for gates while not stopping people from getting in or getting out and there were twenty arrests of youths inside the complex it was a symbolic situation that upset so many palestinians because of the israelis asserting what they see as their all thoughts on this situation however the

situation now appears to be a very tense atmosphere but nevertheless the rights to pray back. the number of dead from monday's down collapse in laos has risen to twenty seven with more than one hundred missing as water levels recede villages of questioning why they were not moved to safety florence louis sent us this report from still trying province in neighboring cambodia. as water levels begin to recede people start to return to their homes to clean up to repair to salvage what they can monday's collapse of a newly built hydroelectric dam in province in southern laos flooded villages and farmland in both laos and neighboring cambodia the scale of the disaster remains unclear information from state media in this remote part of laos has been sketchy and sometimes inconsistent many survivors tell a consistent story however water levels rose so fast they never experienced

anything like it. a little i felt so desperate when i saw the sight of the water i thought i might die the water was rising and rising and everything in the house was all washed away the search for the missing continues the lao army and teams of international experts are helping to look for survivors when young i'm looking for my brothers i'm worried about them and five thousand people in neighboring cambodia have been evacuated from their homes the water level in the sacred river remains high but it appears to have peaked here in still trying province it's about twelve point four meters roughly the same as twenty four hours earlier the cambodian ministry of water resources and meteorology expects water levels to fall on saturday as water levels recede in places villages are questioning why they weren't moved to safety sooner and there are conflicting reports on when cracks in the dam were first spotted florence al jazeera trying providence cambodia. here at the news

hour live from london much more still ahead a syrian families finally not learning seven years old what happened to their missing. relatives after one hundred days of violet's nicaragua rights groups point the finger at the government relatives mourn their dead. and in sport christiane are now though avoids jail in spain but he has to pay out for tax evasion will have the details coming up with. saudi u.a.e. coalition aircraft have launched as strikes on the yemeni city of data the data jose strategically important seaport which is the main entry point for most of the country's food aid well those coalition strikes follow a claim by who's the rebels so they targeted i would. say andres craig is an assistant professor at the defense studies department at king's college london he said it's difficult to establish what might have happened. if you look through

social media if you look through the evidence that's out there so whatever the who these provide have provided as evidence cannot is fake basically these are photoshop images which you know have nothing to do with the reality. and in an equally the the usa you haven't done enough to provide evidence that it did not happen or provide an explanation that someone logically incredibly explains the disruption of flights yesterday and the thing is here that the country that were known for falls information and a country that really is very secretive about what's going on in their country and they have quite a good control over social media domestically so leaks are very very difficult to to come by so both sides have a long track record of not telling the truth so very difficult to ascertain who's right. but there is no causal link between a disruption and i would be and the claim of the who these particular when we look at the technological ability of the who these at the moment when it comes to the

drone capability the distance between you know a potential control center of the who these in yemen to the airport is around thirteen to fifteen hundred kilometers depending on where you measure the sum of three if you look at it is quite an extensive drone this is not a small toy there's not a quatro caught there as we might know it so having such a huge vehicle penetrating the airspace quite deeply and then thinking that the air defense system wouldn't issue a warning and pick it up before it actually reaches a critical infrastructure such as i would be able it seems to be very very unlikely . syrian government forces have been celebrating in the southern city of connector after we taking control from i sell and other opposition fighters government troops have been deployed along the border fence near the israeli occupied golan heights for the first time in four years it follows weeks of intense fighting in the province as president as president assad's forces look to tighten control of the strategically important territory bordering israel and jordan. well after years of

silence and uncertainty thousands of syrian families are now being given official death certificates for their missing relatives but the government hasn't released the bodies or any proof of the cause of death many of them have been detained or forcibly disappeared. for years he knew nothing about her husband opposition activist basso hard to be until recently when the syrian government declared that he died in two thousand and fifteen he was among the more than eighty thousand people believed by rights groups to have been detained or forcibly disappeared since the uprising began in two thousand and eleven in recent weeks and after years of silence more and more families are being told their relatives are dead risen. to the fate of their beloved ones. the cause of. this is for a heart attack. and this is. very hard because

they someway the bush family has to sign on to agree that he was not killed. as he says so far there are four thousand names of detainees or those who disappeared now officially registered as deceased the dates go back years among them. a well known nonviolent opposition activist from. his family was recently informed that he got here and his brother mohamad had died in two thousand and thirteen while in detention relatives find out from civil registry offices or the military police families are being told what they long suspected they now want to know where the bodies are buried and the true cause of death. and yet. how their rights to what happened to their international human rights. groups have accused the syrian government of large

scale torture and extrajudicial killing in its prisons the exact number of detainee deaths while in detention is not known some rights groups say thirty thousand died of torture and dire conditions since the conflict began seven years ago other rights groups say the number is as high as sixty thousand and seventy or prison alone amnesty international estimated that thirteen thousand were killed in mass hanging's between two thousand and eleven and two thousand and fifteen. families of the detained who live in rebel areas are able to raise their voices but those in government territory have to remain silent the fear now is the government may be trying to cover up likely crimes against humanity and prevent families from seeking justice. they are the winners now. because of. the families say the case of the

detainees and the disappeared needs to be dealt with in any post conflict settlement it seems the syrian government wants to avoid that by bury the file and along with it the troops. the main leader of lebanon has criticized the syrian government for failing to stop an isolator back on its community in the syrian city of psuedo. says proracing forces should have noticed fighters gathering for the assault which involved suicide bombings and similar taney as raids at least two hundred forty people were killed many of them were druze a community which spreads across syria lebanon israel has the largest political party in lebanon is also a strong critic of the syrian president bashar assad. well elsewhere iraq's top shiite cleric has demanded the government be formed to soon as possible to deal with corruption and pull services grand ayatollah ali al sistani is call echoes the demand of protesters across the country demonstrations started in the oil rich city

of basra in the south thousands of protesters there say the government is neglecting the region while exploiting its resources imran khan has more from baghdad. protests in iraq of failed to materialize in the kinds of numbers that we've seen in recent weeks in basra and here in baghdad also that despite a campaign a very active campaign on social media trying to encourage people to come out in the streets now why is that it's likely to be because the protesters demands have been listened to by the government the government has struck deals with its neighbor kuwait to supply electricity generators in kerosene to fuel those generators saying that will supply electricity for at least seventeen hours a day in the south and you'll remember these protests were sparked when iran says it wasn't paid a billion and a half dollars in electricity bills by iraq and cut off the supply to the south and now the protests didn't blame iran for that they said this was government

incompetence government corruption and simply that the government wasn't functioning now also on friday we had the hope by the sermon given by the spokesman of the high shia religious authorities now he's throwing his weight behind the protest movement he says that the government must be expedited the his words and it must be formed immediately and it needs to take into consideration all of the protesters demands now the reason for that is that the shia clerics hey are very worried that the protest movement if it spreads not just in the south but across the country as well that they'll come in for criticism for not backing the protest movement so this will avoid the protest movement as well however it looks it feels like right now that the protest movement is simply waiting and giving the government a chance to meet their demands. well than four hundred people have been killed in antigovernment protests over the past three months according to nicaragua's association of human rights is accuses security forces of detaining opponents of president daniel ortega in secret torture sanchez last america and its holy see in

fanaticism. human rights leaders tell us that in these one hundred days in the rubble has become a part of the. state at sea given the country everywhere you can see it on the road for example that's normally at this hour but it's home to traffic but instead if you come to see there are buses to get up before it gets dark. a small group of students nevertheless came out to mark the anniversary of the civil uprising after you look at it and we say to the government that we aren't afraid they say they want peace but they are killing us the president daniel ortega blames the killings on alleged terrorists who want him out his wife and vice president. went further in a radio broadcast this one a little read. there are drug addicts and alcoholics linked to all sorts of delinquency the nicaraguan people that some have taken their own lives so they can

blame the government. rights organizations refute the claims and accuse the government of setting up clandestine detention and torture centers. we're seeing monstrous repression with all the perverse methods that the state can resort to jeer in wartime even though the country isn't at war and it's using them against its own people president insists that the country is getting back to normal but the rising number of deaths and disappearances of opponents tell a different story. you see in human al-jazeera. still ahead for you on the program could more have been done to stop this quick town being ravaged by fire and to save the lives of those killed. it's the ultimate comeback how two thirty to forty thousand year old nematode worms were brought back to life. is full with joe only one championship leader is among those struggling to stay on track during
