they will be going to watching these rallies very very closely the main opposition to denounce a genocide is that another thing you told that thing is packed to capacity but this one here we are. here and president obama is going to come to speak at the moment is looking very very very good people are trickling in very very slowly again something i have never seen in all the years i've covered zanu p.f. rallies so it's a wait and see when he arrives how many people that's a show have to be addressed by him and what is he going to say will be enough to convince enough zimbabweans to vote for him come monday when the elections take place all right thanks so much that. now is still not officially the winner but imran khan has begun talks on forming a new government for pakistan several of the rival parties and accepting the results though that of the former cricketer as the clear front runner we've got together to demand new elections this is where things stand the election commission

has declared results for two hundred sixty seven of the two hundred and seventy seats in monahan's pakistan to think insaf is leading with one hundred and sixteen of them therefore he is all but certain to become the next prime minister but that short of a majority in order to be sure of forming a government he needs coalition partners to get the magic number of one hundred thirty seven of his closest rival is still the ruling pakistan muslim league of jailed former leader shareef which now has sixty four seats the pakistan people's party of assassinated former prime minister benazir bhutto has forty three of the smaller parties have a combined total of forty four come on high there is live for us in the capital islamabad let's start with the opposition they are divided where are they heading on this street protests and boycotts.

what is happening right now is that the opposition is there why did the pakistan muslim league. parties made it quite clear that they would be ready to sit on the opposition benches so we have to wait and see where the. opposition party the. street protest and trying to bring their government to a grinding halt are a bit too much that kind of support what we have seen in this election is that it is a young people don and a women who have unprecedented and that is something which is very different good for some of the older or legal tender traditional politicians. that's about the opposition let's talk about his coalition building efforts how those talks going. we've already seen some of the independent and independent candidates already who

won the elections they've ordered he announced their support for the p.d.i. some of them are already on route to islamabad normally the trend in pakistan and that no matter which party comes out on top the independents normally get advocate towards them so he's quite confident they really have a big chunk of those. independent candidates who won the election that really put him in a strong position he's got. allies apart which have bagged a few key ten dead and if you poured that can lead to a good date and have a comfortable position right now where doherty they're mulling a while who will be the foreign minister we're told. by have the candidate who won from this. need to be the new finance minister and obviously why all this is going on the accountability chord mr. if

skype from good in the netherlands good to have you with us first of all take us through the evidence that this extreme weather patterns we're seeing are part of global warming well the easiest reasoning suit you know the earth is warming so most places or it's a warm except there are very few exceptions places and or very extremes the hot extremes are warming achieve more and the urge so you'd expect more each way it's all around just from this very simple argument there doesn't seem now from what i understand from the process the arctic ice is melting and that's kind of fueling it it's becoming a cycle does this mean we're going to see more of this in the future well it's a british people raising their hands yes it will seem more. the world's future for sure as long as we don't occur emissions of c o two. it's very worrying

to hear you say that because now we're talking about what we're reporting today is things like crop failures drought i mean how much of a threat to economic activities or life is the weather pattern going to increasingly become. just l'estrange for contemporary for temperature the argument is really very simple and we have in there been this this simplistic argument now for europe for each player which is finished here helens yesterday and we found that the chance of that something like this happening have increased very effective to two or more in two and yes if we keep the warming to about two degrees in holland at least this will be a communal normal summer months an extraordinary scene when one it gets florida and that's that and the summer so this will be quite mccool summer. drought is much more complicated it depends very strongly on a region we've done a couple of studies that we find.

apologize there we lost connection with with there will triumph scepter back story later. relief workers in southern nigeria are struggling to cope with a new wave of refugees fleeing cameroon fighting broke out back in october after several days declared an independent state they call and there's only and since then thousands of refugees of the crossing the border to escape the violence our correspondent address is in i just saw by the nigerian cameroon border what are conditions like there we can see people around you what are they facing. well basically sammy trying to get out of the shop now you can see a process of distribution going on right now in i just saw the plan for the u.n. refugee agency was to call up on forty eight families who are not properly catered for a few days ago when they were in town now they came to follow up on those forty five

families and one witnessing is that more and more refugees have come into the community over the past few days or so here you can see. the papers and it is a list of twenty people so far the registration has registered eight new comers to this village which is close to the larger cameroon border and sami this is the situation in more than forty five communities around the nigeria come these refugees are scattered in these communities and it's presenting a huge logistical nightmare for the u.n. refugee agency and there are fewer agencies by the way to deal with the problem as it is right now on the ground so it's a huge challenge for the relief workers and it's also very well to give consideration for the people who are coming in from across the border now the process now is. going to continue with the process of registration is going to

continue and the rehabilitation exercise we're talking about more than thirty thousand people already registered and more are expected in the coming few weeks or so ahead of the declaration of the anniversary of the declaration of the so-called amazonia republic so in all the centers we visited we do see a lot of registration new registration taking place. only in korea and her baby among hundreds of new arrivals crossing over from cameroon so five kilometers from this refugee registration center after wandering from village to village she eventually crossed the border into nigeria three days ago. so is lousy up with afghani i wanted to come since last year but now i've bought at the dead including my aunt as hiding inside cameroon because there's a war there we were dodging the troops she's already lost three of our relatives and fears for the lives of several others an estimated thirty thousand people

fleeing the violence in cameroon are currently living in nigeria survivors speak of abuses by community and forces including torture and summary executions the united nations high commissioner for refugees is developing two new settlements to move the refugees away from more than forty border villages we are striving around the clock to provide assistance protection in lifesaving assistance with huge number of refugees as they're arriving there night and the resources remain a victim as far as. relief workers left the village i book him just a few days ago but when they returned one hundred fifty refugees had arrived for some the only possessions they had while the clothes the world. they save the army crackdown in the english speaking south of cameroon continues. right across the water is the republic of cameroon this is one of the several routes refuges state

try void getting into contact with cameroon and forces separatists are due to mark the anniversary of the self declared independence of the republic of korea in two month's time now clashes are expected now a lot of people i expected to come through this route because of the fighting between the government forces and the rebels for months fred or some has been living in exile in nigeria he remembers clearly the day he was forced to leave. they just came to their cost and everybody was running. they lasted for over forty five minutes there was constant shooting everywhere he and other young men are still wanted by the army i cruised of membership of the supporters some but only a movement where says independence is a legitimate demand even the pigs that you have to cure all of us then you need to sort of what that this struggle is going to. we wind up while he

and thirty thousand other refugees are digging in for a long steady leave of you she was bracing for yet more to join the. al-jazeera on the nigeria border. the moment we'll have all the weather with rob but still ahead here now to syria. we look at the challenge of ensuring a free and fair election in mali. and install the event this boss explains what kind of impact there will have on italian football. from dusky sunsets over disproving savannah. to sunrise atop an asian metropolis. how has been of a bad year in myanmar from the point of view of moms and it's always because i was going to be one country hit badly by climate change and so it's no great surprise

now we're in the states count state is pictured here and this is east of yangon so it's southeast and part of me in ma and this is an annual event but it's getting worse and worse i think something like ten thousand people in this small area displaced already of course of rain hasn't stopped the season is at its height of the nereus finish even for the next twenty four hours you just see the science west wind blowing and of course that generates more and more running which is the green stuff from here so there was more to come this jump out and go across to thai food just about making landfall now in japan merits it's weakening its strength which is to be expected it's winds are now one hundred twenty kilometers per hour which takes it right at the bottom of the level want to five it's a level one on the sco it will drop it soon but it's still got lots of rain with it and it's not increasing the waves it's brought with it to twelve beaches there battering the shores of the small islands even home shoot its course tags across

the middle of honshu itself for the next day or so it's a bit further north than the course that i gave you yesterday so it's not entirely certain so far one hundred fifty movies the rainfall and of course plenty more to come. the weather. always. in the deprived villages of northern argentina there's one man with a solution to every problem. for engineer a self-proclaimed inventor ferdinando and he's crossed a ninety four to seven ford truck no job and just too small or village too far in his latest mission he construct a much needed refrigerator the drums and fire board viewfinder latin america driving change or not just see it or. when people need to be head. but it's been for a few jomo soul is life it's not a normal life sure and the story needs to be told. at all suspect

i testify. to the bad guys in fact al-jazeera has teams on the ground to bring new documentaries and live news on air and online. you're watching our time to recap our headlines now major developments in attempts to end syria's seven year old civil war representatives from kurdish held areas say they've agreed to form committees with the government of bashar al assad the syrian democratic council is linked to the u.s.

capital known penh. in cambodia there is only one show in town these days the ruling cambodian people's party led by prime minister who in sin is expected to win sunday's election comfortably the main opposition the cambodian national risky party which almost won five years ago is banned and urges voters to stay away. voting isn't compulsory but that didn't stop the prime minister threatening anyone who doesn't take. whoever doesn't participate in this election destroys democracy following the illegal propaganda movement. that illegal movement is the cambodian national risky party which was dissolved her allegedly plotting to overthrow the government with foreign help its leader kim so carr has been in jail since september awaiting trial for treason while most other leading members left cambodia fearing a wrist they say the election is illegitimate and the ruling out supporting protests if cambodians call for them if there is an uprising we hope that

the. uprising. that is why we want to find solutions today the international community is also slowly taking action some foreign election observers are here but not from japan the long time supporter of the cambodian government refused while the united states and european union withdrew funding for the election. is over so natural or just the demise of his only real political opposition there have also been attacks on dependent media organizations and n.g.o.s and with many staff harassed and arrested forced to leave the country more reasons why many people are dismissing this election as a sham among nineteen opposition parties only a couple can really be called truly independent and they can't compete with the large campaign budget of the prime minister's party. believe staying in the fight is better than sitting on the sidelines he was a member of the band c.n.r.

people before setting up his own party we here in cambodia we need to do something we just cannot sleep at home be quiet otherwise be also read to and we'll continue to grab on to our people we'll continue to be separate from. from a land grab being an issue that group looks certain to continue well beyond the election in says he wants to stay in power for another ten years wayne hay al jazeera phnom penh. more now on those elections in pakistan imran khan is reported to be in talks with minor parties on a coalition deal but his rivals they're calling for a new vote i'm joined now by political commentator mashad of zaidi he's live for us from islamabad so first of all how much of a historic transition of power has just taken place before our eyes in pakistan.

well we're still we're still in the process but when this is done it will be unprecedented for pakistan to have seen a civilian government that took power from another civilian government and hands it to a third civilian government this is never happened before the democratic project in pakistan continues to grow of course all young beings and bodies have growing pains and this democracy is experiencing those pains especially those that have lost the election that's the that those are the sounds that you hear in terms of the opposition it's allegations of wide scale rigging its demands for new new votes now that's not to suggest that there hasn't been electoral irregularities in many places but those irregularities do not render the the vote or the election irrelevant they simply mean that pakistan's electoral commission needs to do

a much better job of communicating exactly what went wrong in the areas where things are legit to have gone wrong but it's very clear that the p.d.i. is the single largest party in the country by far and therefore probably deserves a fair chance at setting up its first ever federal government here in pakistan and you mentioned it is a process that is ongoing willimon hano internally be able to put together a coalition government do you think i think he's in a very good position to do that he has you know he has probably better than two thirds of the of the seats that he needs within his own party but how do you think it was i not only if i was going to him now but the you know most of the labor party's say that they don't want to join. well i think there's still a fair bit of electoral shenanigans that are taking place i certainly think the

p.p.p. would welcome and and grab with both hands an opportunity to form a coalition government i'm not sure that the b.t.i. would be able to burnish its credentials as a reform party if it did that but that would be the most stable and obvious choice for a coalition partner beyond that there's a number of independents almost three dozen that that might be available two dozen if they make between two and three dozen i haven't seen the latest tally but the independents and some of the smaller parties combined should be able to get a non-con over the over the magic number how much of a threat public demonstrations and those opposition parties which are of vowing to launch a kind of protest movement i think there's a significant threat of some of the smaller religious groups that feel like they've been cheated out of. electoral victories for their leaders they may indeed

pose a small threat the larger two parties don't have an interest in causing the country to break down to slow down they don't have anything to gain from wide scale and long term political instability because they both have been given substantial shares of power by the respective peoples of this province of sindh in the case of the p.p.p. the party of the slain former prime minister benazir bhutto and the p.l.o. and the party of the jailed former prime minister nawaz sharif both those parties have a significant mandate regionally and they have an interest in continuing to go along with the democratic project despite all the warts and irregularities in this election and indeed in the run up to the election all right good to get your analysis on that thanks so much mashallah for the navy. for my catalan leader carlos pushed him or has returned to belgium vowing to defend what he called the

just cause of the catalan people he's back in brussels after a failed bid by spain to extradite him on rebellion charges from germany but he met the current president of catalonia kim torah who travel to meet his predecessor pushed him on fled spain last year after catalonia as a referendum on independence. is a political scientist and contributor to vocal european joins us by skype from barcelona good to have you with us so what direction do you expect the catalonian independent movement to take now we've got a new catalonian leader and we've got a relatively new spanish leader to have a way yes indeed we have brand new man in the new in europe three man who can goes to everywhere except for catalonia to explain the situation. repression we have here against democracy against human

rights and that's where it has been so much worse than there was a loosen up that there were no in germany because now he can come back to brussels where he was before and he can now really will there the political activities and there is no better city where do we want that in brussels or stone of the european union and so-called democracy and human rights of the western world. right but getting back to my question though i mean from the perspective of the authorities in madrid of course they wouldn't see the catalonian leaders as speaking for democracy and human rights in their opinion they would say these are leaders of a rebellion. by organizing in their opinion the legal referendum that didn't follow the constitution we know the new prime minister of spain has taken a rather tough stance on that issue so again what sort of direction do you expect

this independence movement take now. well for now this has been us like a stalemate and it has been a humiliating climbdown for despondence to do sorry because it's making an abuse of there you're going to rest weren't. there politicians in madrid think what has happened what does europe saying it's sending a message of democracy of human human rights repression there was no sets of issues or rebellion on the first or october the young so now the catalans. will direct it it's talk to the european alternatives now can do it on the new president has been talking to their consulates in barcelona explaining what direction they are going to take he has been started then talking

to the prime minister and then also. a minister came in barcelona let's wait so now we got our leaders should we meet with its international activities and make a strong commitment for the continent coast international level we don't expect. bigger change in spain although there has been a change now the socialist government is there you have to remember that see you. he was elected. as a prime minister mr sanction he just proposed to change. the course of that i could jump it where do you see no chance of any sort of political compromise some at least leaders spring released from jail perhaps something towards reorganizing a vote again. i hope that but at the moment i cannot see.

the spanish government doing that should because he has now to argue. yes the power to explain to them. to tell their judges to free political leaders because everyone in europe now can see that there are political prisoners all right thanks so much for your thoughts on that. thank you very much. three palestinians have been killed by israeli strike in the latest friday protest at the gaza israel border fence health workers say at least another two hundred forty five people were injured in the eighteenth week of demonstrations urging an end to the israeli blockade dozens of dog.
