a united effort to try to end the three year old civil war in yemen once and for all but given that this is not just a who're between two opposing sides but given that they are some each supported by powerful regional countries iran is supporting the who these the saudi government is supporting the central government in sanaa it's going to be complicated but there is a recognition that because of the dire humanitarian situation in that country that a political solution to the civil war needs to be found as quickly as possible rose it was also interesting to hear him say words that he thinks a solution is available an interesting turn of phrase there to use the word available and that they've actually done a huge amount of research talking to all sorts of different parties you know to come up with the right solution well one of the things that griffiths

has been stressing is that he has been able to maintain laws of communication with the government of president hadi with the who the leadership with other interested parties who have been playing a role in this civil war and he said that because these lines of communication have been open and because people have been willing to at least try to figure out a way for example to keep the data port open for humanitarian aid delivery that he feels that there is at least the political will on all sides to actually try to have this conversation is highly unlikely to expect that he would have made this announcement had martin griffiths not believed that people would actually show up in geneva early in september while still in jordan their life in the united nations as always for us thank you. watching al jazeera live from london still to come on the program sporadic protests in cities across iran amid a dramatic drop in the reaal and

for talks in geneva in september awesome griffiths told the un security council that quote a political solution to end the war is available. alas he addressed the cancelled the death toll from the saudi led air strikes in the city of one day that continued to rise twenty six people and i've confirmed dead after a fishing port and fish market are hit near the city's main spittal the rebel hooty one t.v. channel says strikes have killed fifty five. hundred so although rainy and angry at the state of the economy have protested at these five cities iran's official news agency says the demonstrations were illegal and have been broken up by police here waiting currency to record lows this week has lost around half of its value this year. well let's take a look we can see that there are people in place there live in harare this is where

the election results are going to be in and they said that it was going to happen in the coming hours we've been told there are correspondent that we might see the results come out region by region but what we do know is that police have sealed off the opposition party headquarters and they've also cleared the streets of the capital now this is comes after a violent day yesterday an incredibly tense atmosphere six people died after soldiers opened fire on opposition m.d.c. supporters we know that both of the candidates in this race claim to be the victor that's the national anthem playing there of the opposition certainly doesn't want to back down how we know that they think that they have won is something that hopefully we're going to find out let me bring in my guest lance guma managing editor and they home the radio that's a very warm welcome to the program for having me what do you expect that we're

going to see here this evening. i'm a bit disappointed that all this could have been avoided because these elections are home on ised and we expected the dissolves to also be harmonised by this i mean you had people voting for the consular people voting for the member of parliament and their presidential candidate so even results for m.p.'s were being alone zzz you know one wonders why are you not at that juncture able to give the results for the presidential election and this i think is what is fueling the fueling the suspicion amongst the opposition supporters that the presidential elections results were counted first but are being announced lost on that note let's have a little listen in months. thank you commissioner bill. good evening everyone might i take this opportunity to ask all the commissioner's office

above electoral commission will we have outstanding announcement to be god do you hear from bush and impatient to finalize their announcements before we go into other counts that i was convinced to conventional on my right that you that if you to continue that pending announcement this proceed to any other commission on my right. or you can. thank you. were. thank you guys on my rights commission and my live to those who have outstanding announcements the. good thing is and gentlemen the group consolidations of the night syrian group truth is no one doesn't see things a little about it you have to have two big team. people want you to have seen and put that cloak and in fifty one while you will find sealed as the

taint of nominated panties and produce for the program should be elected senate members of the national left seven more and members of the group. the following have sensitive and declared group be elected senator as for my dear they've been most important. yet to those men the m.d.c. and i have somehow founded a hip dates and to see his govt really and to see allies in my view to control what. that look here both for updates mozzies zambo pm do it and he's sign of pm. the following this and have been declared julie elected to his medical condition assemble for mike to live in north grove. odessa was to see you in

and to see him. or to my for good m.t.c. i lay low there for i really am do you see and i recall more mad then zanu p.f. matters who go it is that big sam with pm. damn family zandu pm. the following persons have been declared julie a to destroy you so as for my religion grow and. don't move caroline m.t.c. i lay in the actual my joys m.d.c. and learning don't we share one in d.c. i learned new very challenges and d.c. i live in moved even but if you have those empty lanes this is

my daughter and zion neutrally and my horse i am saying that new pm. yes one year later than the pm new very easy to move it up slow and steady sanity and show co-producing example here. and so when we are listening to this what is it exactly that we're hearing because what comes across to me there is that i'm hearing about the provincial side of things and i'm hearing the mix of names they are hearing right vs m.d.c. and i'm counting in my head how many is that what you're hearing there is no what people are interested in this is what we're saying this simply repeating some of the people we looked at as members of parliament of course they talk also announced in those would be injured electors the senators and you know members of the provincial council but people are not interested in this people want to know who

won the presidential election saw all this. assuring you know they're going to go through the whole night doing this and they're not going to get to what people are interested in and this is the point i'm trying to make it's a very simple point. people voted in home when i's the elections is the elected councillor an m.p. and their presidential candidate when announcing the results and follow the same route are known to the results at the same time in this constituency this member of parliament won the election the presidential candidates got such and such a number of votes in this constituency and then you move to the next constituency and then you don't have this situation because we have precedent and that is the problem in two thousand and eight the electoral commission withheld presidential election results for six weeks they're known as the parliamentary elections but they withheld presidential elections for six weeks so i would have thought the government knowing this president milling the levels of suspicion in the country

would have at least made an effort to be as transparent as possible and do this as simple as possible but they didn't do that while the eyes of the world watch on london we will keep talking to lance of course the evening and we will also keep an eye on that conference room in harare and bring you anything additional that we find out as we go. now israel has blocked feel and gas supplies from entering the gaza strip defense minister avigdor lieberman says the measure is in response to protest a sending incendiary cuyp symbolism across the border gaza suffers from a severe lack of electricity and relies on fuel power generators jury outages that often last hours hospitals in particular struggle with that lack of resources well the gaza strip has forty five kilometers of blue waters and some of the coast but not many people there are actually swimming that's where the lifeguards come in teaching the next generation but as stephanie decker reports even the beach is

directly affected by the blockade. he is arguably the best known lifeguard in gaza also known as the teacher or the swimmer fifty five year old aymen is a veteran on these beaches. the one having a problem when she. come to the beach you feel like they are releasing the depression they have inside because water is life when they enjoy the sound of water you feel like they need it it's like a mental really you know must be forgiven to think that this is a beach just like anywhere else in the world and even though it offers some sense of the state for the people of gaza israel cedes remains ever present just a few kilometers off the coast israeli navy patrols the waters imposing its years long naval blockade an israeli navy vessel lies in the background we noticed it using a water cannon just before we started filming a what we can only assume was a palestinian fishing boat perhaps getting too close to the israeli imposed invisible border penned in even at sea. the blockade is also limited mohamad

champion long distance swimmer he says he hasn't been able to fill his dream of competing abroad as he hasn't been allowed to leave a lifeguard fifteen years he says they badly need equipment. we originally meet equipment because right now we have to do everything by our hands we need boats life rafts the minimum is the rescue buoys we don't even have that so big number of people come on the weekend and it's really difficult to deal with so many people were told drowning is a problem many don't know how to swim. and for those who can afford it ayman starts them off in the pool as seen parents the world will recognize but everything is different here forty five kilometers of sun kissed beaches but the waters are contaminated with rule of sewage the majority of gaza's two million people have never been allowed to leave the economy's never been worse most don't have enough money due to both the blockade and palestinian infighting in summer

when every time they say there will be a solution things just get worse it's difficult to do a story on life in gaza these days without mentioning the crippling effect of the siege despite these seemingly carefree moments everyone without fail says life is the worst it's ever been stephanie decker. democratic republic of congo opposition leader. has launched his application to be a candidate in the presidential election the former rebel commander arrived home on wednesday after eleven years and exile ten years of that spent in prison catherine saw reports from the capital kinshasa. john here ben but what they believe god by police when he came here to the electoral commission to prevent. some of the supporters was there the police. right. there with singing and dancing and then they just here to support them are you know we did speak to some of the two

officials who say that he movement has been fulfilled he's not being allowed to interact with many supporters they say that he wanted in the period that he's here in kinshasa to stay in one of these residences in a. police car they'd know to that clear now he spent the night. one of the complex is an office complex that he finally owned again very heavily guarded by police we did speak to the commissioner of police often told us that this is all this is for his own protection faded back. by street to go anywhere but then they will not let him go to he's ready denting gone because gone be a presidential area and they do not want a repeat of what happened in two thousand and six let me remind you back in two thousand and six when he lost to president joseph kabila presidential runoff.

supporters did to the streets and there was a violent complex confrontation between both supporters and the police several people were killed so police aimed at trying to avoid doubt at all costs. tech giant apple has just become the first companies a hit a valuation of one trillion dollars on the u.s. stock markets that's a million million dollars or a one with twelve zeros came when apple's share price on wall street went over two hundred seven dollars as the second company worldwide to hit the trillion dollars that so china did it very briefly eleven years ago on the shanghai exchanges. results for the presidential election twenty missing into harare now these are the presidential election results in terms of all ten provinces it's the end of the announcements for our ten provinces we will then proceed. to announce the overall winner and to make the declaration of the will not as of now i would

three hundred fifty to two. let's bring in our guests now lance guma managing editor of me on the radio as i'm bob when online station here in the u.k. we have been sitting here talking lance have ways we've seen these results come in and lance was keen to stress that this will be an ongoing process throughout the evening just explain for our viewers what's actually happening here lance ok given the results province saw they'll be given your results for each of the twenty three something candidates given that is out province by province and i think bill it will be something like ten provinces and then they'll probably give you a total. from those ten provinces please we need to start with the total when the party interest in this started with the province that time is a once or i suppose probably trying to cool down tempers i guess and then i suppose what happens next as we go into the rule provinces where we expect to see that

result flipped as awareness. what do you suspect was behind that violence yesterday last because looking at it from an outside for space if this was such a goal from some bob way to show progress you know wasn't it in my mind when i go out has been talking peace for months i know i mean i think zimbabweans are sick and tired of being sick and tired and for the first time with a president who was preaching peace the president spent close to eight months. preaching peace saying that zimbabwe was open for business so we have no clue why they would decide to unleash soldiers who shot down six and armed civilians i mean all that work over eight months up in smoke. there is a suspicion and this is just a theory but i think even reuters once did a story on this last month that this seems to be

a power struggle between the vice president and the president who is the civilian face of this government the vice president is the. the former army general who led the coup last year so some are suggesting that probably the president didn't know anything about the deployment of soldiers and that this was done by the vice president was the former army general that led the coup. i might also need to remind your viewers that we had that attempted assassination on the president and you know to my recollection no one has been arrested for that so some suspect an inside job so all of these are theories that are you know circling around but it doesn't make sense to invest eight months of your time preaching peace and then have your troops gunned down six civilians it really doesn't make sense so if we see a picture developing potentially as you point out there and it's just a theory division somewhere at the top and then if we see results where perhaps in harare we know that nelson got over seven hundred thousand votes and then we

suspect that in the rural areas that result will be flipped. does that then suggest that we probably will see unrest from the opposition. i hate to say this but i think the violence that we saw yesterday was planned and that the deaths of those six people will virtually ensure nobody protests going forward. i think once they did that there were probably ready to announce the results and i think either today or tomorrow they will announce the results and i think people have seen what has happened on the streets and i i do not think i think people will simply contain their anger because the bubble is a divided society effectively you have people in the urban areas supporting the opposition and people in the rural areas you know i have to give a caveat that obviously days a lot of subtle intimidation the vote by saying the use of traditional things like

that but in terms of the voting patterns. here is essentially a rural backed party so there is that division and you know we've been seeing a lot of messages between you know urbanites insulting people in the royals for keeping zanu p.f. in power and so i think we are a divided nation we need cool heads there's a lot of talk about a possible coalition government i'm hearing that the people around the president. or poster that they don't want to hear anything about a coalition government with the opposition and they are instead suggesting that the president reaches out to none politically aligned but talented zimbabweans who can be drafted into the to the government but you know that's but i think i need also to say the opposition is not entirely without blame the way they conducted their own primary elections was very chaotic their field of double candidates in some of

their constituencies so yes is an appeal is notorious for rigging but they also need to look themselves in the mirror. some of the seats they lost particularly blow i thought which is an urban area they could have avoided that by the fielded too many double candidates in some constituencies and when you added up their votes for their two candidates it was enough to be done a few of so i think that is unacceptable and is something that needs to be saved ok lance we'll leave it there for now i will be keeping an eye on the goings on in harare thank you the thousands of young people have been blocking the streets of bangladesh's capital dhaka there protesting over the deaths of two students on the role of witnesses saying that a speeding bus hit and killed the two individuals was demonstrates his call for the arrest of the driver and best to safety measures the government's closed all educational institutes for security reasons tanveer charter has more now from the. the fifth day of protests by the students all across the country especially in the

capital city dhaka intersection like this right i'm standing it's totally shut off there is a great loss all across the city and in other parts of the country as road we have never seen this unprecedented number of students even their guardians industry supporting them they want some sort of major reform in the road accidents and implementation of road transport laws by the government their demand is also the resignation of the shipping minister mr khan who is really ticked off the students there's also a general degree of frustration among the students because the court on movement started by the university student was crushed by the government and the problem is was not met overall there is a general frustration among the public because there is no room space for demonstration or free expression the press is very much cartel there is not much room for freedom of expression in the country we are facing election down the road probably in december or november of this year so there is

a big political climate here and people are frustrated part of that expression is shown in the street and the students don't sense to be moving out of the street anytime soon unless most of their demands are met something mining company in south africa says it will slash thirteen thousand jobs as it battles to stay afloat and palla platinum which is seen violent protests in the past over pay will cost us workforce in lists and by lessen the number of mines operating there too just may because the government has criticised that decision calling the job cuts careless and reckless. the hot air from africa is bringing in a new heat wave prompting health warnings about sahara desert dust and high temperatures forecasters say the all time temperature record in europe could be broken this weekend in spain and portugal the current record is forty eight degrees celsius and that was set in athens in one nine hundred seventy seven farmers across the continent have been battling the effects of drought and wildfires karl penhall

has more now from one total in southwest spain and the extreme he warnings that have been put out by the splash and spanish national weather office are expected to last right through to the weekend so more hot weather to come in those coming days the significance of this time one toto's this is where the spanish record was set last year forty seven point three degrees and so today all eyes have been on the for the moment is to see if that record will be broken i don't think that is going to happen today from our measurements in the shade temperatures have been around forty two degrees standing out in the direct sun of course above and beyond fifty degrees very hot indeed but talking to some of the older generation in town they say the way to deal with these extreme temperatures is really to go back in time to the old methods the old methods of building houses with fixed stone walls using natural fibers and also they point to this spanish air conditioning here both men

and women use fans may not be good as good as normal air conditioning but it certainly will help you with your electricity bills talking to one of the oldest generation that i could find a ninety two year old olive farmer he said that he's been noticing year after year temperatures have been getting hotter and he said quite simply one of these days the world is just going to burst into flames and london rapper who was cleared of murder earlier this year has been stabbed to death known by his stage name incognito the twenty three year old as part of the drill rap scene a style of music known for its file and lyrics incognita recently agreed that the genre was responsible for a rise in gang violence london. well drill rap music originated on the streets of chicago size site is now quickly spreading around the world critics blame the rap for rising gang violence will social media spat someone's rap or as it were up

saying in some real life gun fights john hendren reports from the place where it all stasi. it's vivid and violent and proudly made in chicago. the drill rap took off in two thousand and twelve the year the f.b.i. named chinatown america's most dangerous city its founding fathers chief keef. question right. now from the windy city to london where you tube removed thirty videos at the request of metropolitan police who found the incited violence . this exploding musical genre is accused of sending violence spilling from the speakers to the street i've listened to enough. to buy a little sort of. regaining in terms of the narrative

a lot of this is unfolding in the streets and other than reflex the sort of wanton violence. it looks permanent solutions war two. and that solution will soften for many drill rapper's life imitates art little jo-jo when j. loud were gunned down in two thousand and twelve king louis in two thousand and fifteen in the list goes on. here in the birthplace of drill rap where thirty five hundred people were shot and six hundred fifty killed last year even some fans say the music few the fury on the street called this what. they saw all year we will employ people say live in the rap load up the block and drill and i get somebody who don't like me you know ran around would include m m go in the room kill him the boy lived. up to me

up here in chicago's south side where drill rap began people say the violence was here long before rappers started talking about it the reality is in chicago we have so many homeless every year and it's been this way for the last twenty or thirty years a lot of guys who roam the streets of chicago mainly to go that's their experience that's what happened here in chicago for critics of the city's latest export the key is letting the videos go viral and not the violence john hendren to congress. just private sector organization is accusing the ruling party of engineering all over the country and says the government's trying to pressure or punish suspected opponents up to four hundred fifty people have died in more than three months of and to get on the scene human reports from messiah just outside the capitol. squatters' settlements like this one are sprouting up over much of nicaragua.

arrived with his family just last week when he heard that this prime property on the outskirts of managua was pretty for the taking. but. we've been told a blow to the government of the commander. here at least one part of what he says is faults it's private property whose owners say that they were thrown out by the squatters when they showed up with their land title. with the then we have reported this to the police and the public prosecutor the mayor but nothing so far . camera one of the squatters told me they're being rewarded by the government for their loyalty to president. owner of the settlement has been named. also a way to pressure and punish those who are viewed as adversaries such as the cohen group one of nicaragua's largest at least three of their properties in northwest i have been invaded but not by poor land the squatters. is are heavily armed masked

ropes of thirty forty or fifty people who are organized with clearly just to go preparation. security rings on the outlying roads to control anyone who approaches . the police he says refused to intervene the invasions came after executive manager colin had publicly stated that nicaragua needed democratic reforms the largest business council accuses the government of organizing lang grabs to keep the private sector in line. some landowners a setting up flimsy qualls to try to keep invaders out signs like this one reading private property are turning up everywhere opposition leaders point out that no one has invaded the property so far of people known to be allies of the governments so far at least thirty major agricultural prop. occupied many owned by foreigners it

may help keep these homeless people happy but it's adding yet another layer of political and economic instability to a country that can ill afford it to see a new been i'll just sita my novel. well heading back to the main subject of our program this evening bills that presidential election results of from zimbabwe we have been watching the provincial results coming out that is what's happening in the room we see in front of us there they're reading out how many votes each candidate got the idea is that once we get to the end of those ten provincial areas we will know the told number and therefore who is the president of the country let's bring in malcolm webb he joins us live from the capital harare so malcolm they are going through each of the provinces that the moment. that's right and over the fourth the first war that they just finished reading the results for president the opposition candidate nelson chamisa had

a very small lead over those four provinces he had a total of just over a million votes and president emerson one god where the ruling zanu p.f. party's candidate over those four provinces had a total of just on the or million votes the difference is about fifty thousand it is very close and then as you say six more provinces to go at the beginning of this session the commission has said they ready to announce nine in total the tenth will follow later so we're expecting to hear results for. another five provinces now and another one later this evening when those it totaled up we'll know the overall result of the opposition who are very skeptical of this wrote the result they've been saying for a couple of days now that they think this election was rigged the electoral commission and the rulings only perhaps party of consistently denied that. in terms of the opposition as you point out they have maintained that this election was rigged but also the violence was shot down quite brutally yesterday what

kind of atmosphere has there been around this question of water on earth is going on in the in the back end if you like. well today the streets are very been very quiet a lot of a lot of people said that the soldiers had told them to to clear the streets told businesses to close although the police spoke personally spoke here a couple of hours ago denied that anyone had been ordered to close or leave the city but the situation has been largely calm but tense some soldiers patrolling around police as well but the opposition allege that there's been rigging going on over the last few days they say the results from. district tally centers have been tampered with before they're forwarded to provincial tally centers and the national tally center electoral commission denies it but they also complain of much more long term problems in influencing the election in particularly in rural areas where

they say whole constituencies are intimidated depending on food aid that's given out by ruling party officials and they say this is how the ruling zanu p.f. party builds up its rule support base there's only here by the ruling zone p.f. deny these charges they say that's where they genuinely have popular support in the rural areas but throughout all of the urban areas you normally tend to see. at least two thirds of people voting for the opposition in those urban areas the opposition do have very strong support and that includes the capital here in harare at malcolm in terms of the international community and those watching over the results being and at some point this evening this appears to have been a real missed opportunity for zimbabwe given the high hopes that there were for this how this election might run. well it depends who you speak to but certainly for a lot of the international community as well as foreign investors and for international

finance to resume from foreign investment to come flowing back in the election needed to have the appearance of being reasonably credible in many other countries in this continent the bar's not that high in terms of electoral credibility for foreign aid informed finance to come flowing in but violence on the streets is somewhat over the line by by many observers standards and yesterday when we saw the army coming to the capital and breaking up crowds of opposition supporters using live gunfire the police said six people were being killed at least fourteen of been injured so for a lot of observers that's exactly the kind of thing they didn't want to happen because that doesn't give the election the appearance of having the credibility and it is the peaceful and the fear that would have allowed business and other things to get back up and running by the ruling party on the electoral commission throughout this there have said everything's been done legitimately and according

to plan and they've blamed the opposition for starting the violence the police said that they've arrested twenty six people and about the last twenty four hours who are being charged with with crimes of relating to starting protests of the opposition's always adamant that their protests are peaceful and they're not responsible for having caused all started that violence welcome in terms of those arrests that you mentioned this kind of crackdown on opposition leaders tell us a bit more about what happened there and what the thought is behind why it happened . well opposition officials claim that they were just holding a celebration because they'd announce their results from their tally center which they said nelson chamisa their candidate was the legitimate winner so their supporters would peacefully celebrating outside their party headquarters but then some of. the close to there is the electoral commission building in and at some

point some of the people in the street started attacking the electoral commission building now opposition party officials say these were infiltrators no more than just have it on you they're not going to talk to you on this story later that's it for now for us will be back in us. china is keen to win friends and influence you need oil rich middle east business spark the long long time line of china to secure its resources for the future the i.m.f. said subsaharan region as a whole now is expected to grow we bring you the stories to the shaping the economic woes we live in counting the cost on ounces era.

the capital harare so malcolm in terms of the past certain in the results that we're seeing is that what would have been expected. we just have them there now done five provinces i mean just give you the latest figures and now according to those latest numbers president emerson when i graduate the rulings on the p.f. party candidate is in the lead but again by a small margin and still a few more results a few more provinces to be read out so this could still change but this is a result that the opposition have said is already rigged nelson chamisa their main candidate spoke to journalist a few hours ago he said he's won this election according to the opposition's own tally center he says the results going to they're expecting to come out of here is not going to be the right one that it is going to be rigged the electoral commission and the rulings on the p.f. party have consistently denied all these allegations of malpractise they said this

election has gone legally and to plan. in terms of the atmosphere over the past couple of days how would you describe it we know the opposition of course of a complaint of what they see as excessive force and that and those arrests. yesterday in harare the army was deployed to break up crowds of opposition supporters they use live gunfire police said six people were killed fourteen of been injured and that brought condemnation from opposition leaders also from the european union observer mission and various other rights groups are said fortunately of forced opposition of also complain that a number of their officials have been arrested by soldiers in my police in different parts of the city a few hours ago we were around side their party hage key that had been sealed off by police and there was a group of opposition supporters inside who had been stuck in there for about the

past twenty four hours they say they've been arbitrarily detained inside and if we by the army and later by the place we've heard that those people had our they were since taken to a police station they've all been charged with crimes to do with starting prison. nothing processed and the police also said a short while ago they rested a number twenty six people charged with similar crimes and these are arrests that opposition say politically targeted trying to cripple their movement with the police say people who are responsible for starting violence whether they're joining me live from harare malcolm thank you lance goma is the managing editor of mayhem the radio that's zimbabwe an online station here in the u.k. and he joins me now so lonesome right now we're seeing that money has a small lead just described to me what it is that we're we're seeing from the results and ok i mean obviously the quality in the figures province by province. i think research are misleading after something like five provinces and i

think it around eight provinces or saw underwear took the lead we spoke about this earlier and you know they'll start with some of those urban provinces and then later on we'll have the results from the you know more rural centric province is coming through and i think that is probably what will probably take over the finish line just to remind your viewers that for either of the kind it is to be declared president they need to get over fifty percent of the vote so. you know we wait to see how that unfolds as that results are announced last what's it like for you and millions of other zimbabwean dyess for all over the world to so watch this happening in your country you know but from the i was side. you know of been covered zimbabwe for close to twenty years now. and i've seen the same things

happen over and over again i would change the dates and the names but the narrative is always is always the same i remember eight months ago i set in this chair or an hour and i see zone appear it's like a snake shedding off its skin when they've got rid of zone appear if it simply said it's skin but remained a snake and i warned that that snake if you ever feel threatened would bite and we saw that snake yesterday six people were gunned down so it's said that sometimes you even able to predict these things because these are the things that have been playing over for the last twenty years as i've been covering zimbabwe and i need to remind your viewers that the president emerson and i were in the eighty's was the state security minister during a genocide that sort twenty thousand people who were killed in the southern

provinces he's also the person who was in charge of the joint operations command in two thousand and eight when we had over two hundred opposition supporters killed so it's amazing that is even a presidential candidate when really he should be facing charges for genocide but this is where we army colonel who directed those massacres is the agriculture minister so i mean if that doesn't say. you know. exactly how it is that they view. i mean i think we our standards are so law that people should be in jail are actually presidential candidates i think we have a lot to fix in our country i think we need as people to expect a lot from our politicians we were expecting we accepting a lot of mediocrity and i think it will take time for this to change and i was saying to you you have nearly three million zimbabweans who are outside the country and there's no desperate for that is allowed so you can imagine if those three

million zimbabweans were back in zimbabwe right now if the sort of figures that number of ways winning with can you imagine if all those people in the diaspora where voting more we are allowed to vote in zimbabwe so if those fundamentals don't change i'm afraid we'll have a son appears in power for a very long time lance we'll leave it there for now and home we'll keep watching those results and we'll keep you updated thanks lance. the united nations envoy for yemen says he plans to invite the warring sides in the conflict there for talks in geneva on september the sixth masinga office told the u.n. security council that a political solution to end the war is available an end to this war cannot come too soon for the people of yemen as our humanitarian colleagues are quick to remind us and i'm sure john will do so if we don't succeed together. to put an end to it there will be

a million millions more yemenis depending on the assistance of our humanitarian agencies and i'm very conscious as a need we all are that each day costs lives which might have been saved. well as he addressed the cancel the death toll from savvy led airstrikes in the city of data continue to rise twenty six people are now confirmed dead and thirty five injured after a session port and market when hit near the city's main hospital rebel hooty one television channel says the strikes killed sixty five people when mohamed atta who is following developments from djibouti rescue workers told journalist how the soul body parts room all over the fish market the pools the target all but else like the free market twenty m.b. to away from hold a hospital which is one of one hundred full of medical facilities not us feel a professional in the day and now residents of what they just say that these

strikes one largely unexpected because both the who through fighters on this who do you and you coalition of the moment but they were going to cease hostilities you around the portal but they you were to give you a piece of force a chance that the international red cross which supports a hospital safety sent because supplies thought would be enough to treat up to fifty patients who are in critical condition this place come at a time when aid agencies are warning all over the new weeks of diseases the country's war times and additional facilities have been largely destroyed by these strikes and the u.n. now face the country could be just one aspect away from an outbreak of a whole lot i once again let's get more on these developments now i was also in jordan at u.n. headquarters in new york so we saw the u.n. special envoy was for yemen talking to the u.n.

with his wrist report sum up for us what did he say. well essentially the point is this martin griffith that's to much energy has been put into operation such as trying to keep the whole date up port open so that humanitarian aid can be delivered to displaced yemeni citizens that is important but he also said because of that so much energy being put into that trying to deal with the attacks on shipping vessels in the red sea talking about efforts to try to keep the government of president. monsour ha the in power he said rather than doing all of this piecemeal both sides the government of president hadi and who the rebels need to sit down and start hammering out a way to end the civil war which has been going on for more than three years he

said that is really the only way to try to stop the widespread suffering of the yemeni population and to love trying to prevent this part of the arabian peninsula from really just descending into outright chaos and while some of the language that he sounded i think overwhelmingly positive he said a solution is available and he talks about how much research had been going on in the background talking to various groups but what the reality is nonetheless that this is a protective complex and it's a conflict and it's deeply complex well this is certainly a summary of a number of reports that he's had to give to the security council in the past three months but one common thread throughout all of his reports to the security council has been that griffiths feels that all of the parties have been engaging with him in good faith and so he.
