difficult or complicated but certainly it does seem like something is movement moving hamas is talking these ready cabinet will be meeting on sunday to discuss this specific issue we've been hearing also from leaders here that these protests nineteen weeks of them have borne fruit so we'll have to wait and see if anything comes out of these talks. watching the al-jazeera news hour live from london much more to come on the program including. from satirical video videos on social media to street rallies frustrations mounted in iran over the country's sputtering economy how spain's sheep are playing a frontline role in the battle against record temperatures and forest fires plus in sports we'll have all the action from the cult us with america including this.

were injured shelob ellis' more now from the afghan capital prison ghani has come out he issued a statement he very rarely does that after bombings and attacks but this time with it being a shia mosque he has come out condemning the attack saying afghanistan will not be divided sunni shia we stand together and we're unified against attacks of this nature taleban has said this is not they work is suspected they have targeted shia many times especially over the last year there were two attacks here in kabul in march thirty nine people killed both suicide attacks last year there were four quite significant attacks all in kabul suicide attacks and more than one hundred people died in those again i see took responsibility parliamentary and district elections are coming up on october the twentieth security is a big issue the presidential elections are announced for april next year and it is only everyone's mind not just day to day attacks we've had a couple of attacks on civilians and then. its operations there and as

you put a few attacks between the taliban and i saw this so this is attacks across the country and civilians really taking the hit and being in the crossfire on those attacks in recent months and of course prison gone it's mind he's he's really concerned about the suiting up to the elections to the point that he seemed in the national army to afghanistan's fifth biggest city jalalabad to take control from the police trying sure up security for civilians. in iran discontent is growing over the country's poor social services and worsening economy videos are being shared on social media of demonstrations being held in the small towns and more recently in the larger cities including the capital tehran it's from there the same bus driver he sent us this report. protesters in iran have been chanting against the religious and political elite but for these men and women what they say is the

government's mishandling of the economy is their main grievance. this some identified woman removed her headscarf and increasingly common way for iranian women to protest and began addressing others. let's build a country with our own hands people do not be afraid if we stand together and united neither internal or external powers can confront us we are a rainy and it is not our business what is happening in palestine syria iraq or lebanon why should all our resources go to them social media messages suggest she was arrested. not every. media is angry some are trying to keep their sense of humor about their financial circumstances posted a video to show how it feels when your money disappears right before your eyes. even the clerics seem to be showing some compassion for delivering this week's friday sermon preacher said the economy is affecting everything and fixing it is

the key to happiness for everyone he blamed government mismanagement and high level corruption for iran's economic troubles that i had to say mattie. that seriously when it comes to fighting violators there should be no exceptions regardless of their relatives or their contacts. that this. many iranians see the government of president hassan rouhani as being out of touch with them protests aren't expected to topple anyone anytime soon the demonstrations are regarded as being too small and the government as well as security forces too strong. but people say they're losing faith in their leaders and. in my opinion people should rise up because this government won't be fixed. if more efficient people take jobs in government it would work. everybody is after their own interests.

they're also people have the right to protest economic and social issues are all connected and people are really under pressure how much more can they tolerate it to rising in protests result in a government action and have a positive impact on people's life why not i would part speak like this are not something that we should not look at it from a business perspective. protesting doesn't like many are just pushing people to move forward that they themselves don't come out the latest protest come days before the next round of american sanctions are due to be imposed on iran the cleric addressing worshippers at friday prayers this week took the opportunity to take a swipe at the american president donald trump is not human he said he was a wolf described as you well trump may have alienated america's allies by pulling out of the twenty fifty nuclear deal if his goal was to hurt iran then from what people here are saying he's managed to hit his target. the

democratic republic of congo the ugandan border u.n. experts toward the city have been the in the remote northeastern province of north . scientists are worried fighting involving rebel groups on the government forces in both the d. r. c. and uganda may hinder their response to the new ebola outbreak. it was important for us to be here to come up with a good strategy against ebola and this will be the epicenter of our response we've taken measures to contain the outbreak and we appeal to the public not to panic we're deploying all necessary medication and resources to treat patients at home there's no need for the patients to be moved isolating the sick is vital to contain any outbreak ebola is carried long distances by bats and then can find its way into bush meat sold in markets people infected by bodily fluids die from hemorrhaging

diarrhea and fever the united nations organization stabilization mission in the d.r. c called monusco is now on the ground on fit. what s a travel. we've done it in past cases and we will together with the governments provide the help that is needed will also provide security as we seek to contain the bolus situation. another outbreak two thousand kilometers to the west and me bundaberg two months ago prompted doctors without borders to inoculate thousands of people with an experimental vaccine at least thirty three people died there before doctors were able to contain the strain of the virus called zoe year which is the former name of the d r c we cannot rule out that this is connected to the previous outbreak but we can say is that there is no evidence to suggest there is a concrete link we suspect that the strain he's here will know much more when we get the genetic sequencing results which should be as

early as next tuesday of next week an outbreak that peak three years ago in west africa killed more than eleven thousand people and infected nearly thirty thousand the new outbreak is the tenth one in the d.r. c since ebola first appeared in one thousand nine hundred six d.r.s. she has also had more than twice as many outbreaks as any other country culture dirge on al-jazeera i suspect the russians five reportedly work that the u.s. embassy in moscow for a decade before being fired last year the russian woman was discovered to be having a regular meetings with russia's main intelligence agency that's the f.s.b. it's reported that she had access to sensitive data including the shed jewels of the us president a security official accuse the u.s. secret service of trying to keep her firing quiet to avoid embarrassment well joining us live from washington d.c. is matthew cronie he's

a deputy director at the scowcroft center for strategy and security thank you so much for joining us here on al-jazeera so what was your reaction to the story when you found out. well to be honest i wasn't terribly surprised this kind of thing happens frequently washington d.c. is has more spies than any other city on earth foreign countries often send their people here looking to infiltrate the us system to pose as diplomats and vice versa embassies overseas are often areas where people posing as legitimate employees are actually working for intelligence services so this kind of thing actually happens fairly fairly frequently so may happen frequently but does that mean that it's not damaging or rather questionable how damaging could this be to the u.s. security intelligence agencies well it can be very damaging and we've had some high profile cases of successful spies in the past who were able to get out large

materials of classified information that's led to. you know people losing their lives in this case fortunately it doesn't seem like the woman in question accessed any really damaging information so she wasn't a success in that sense it seems like we wrapped it up before too much damage was done and do you think what do you think this does then to u.s. russia relations which of course a huge spotlight has been on for a variety of reasons not least the meeting that the two leaders had quite recently and any damage or any proper lasting damage. well it certainly doesn't help and as you know in the united states there's been a pretty hostile perception of russia especially among the democratic party because of russia's meddling in the election and so i think this will just add more fuel to

the fire you know the trump administration seems to have a mixed view on russia but i think that for many in washington this will just further amplify the hostile feelings toward russia so hostile feelings but you don't think it would have any it wouldn't be an element in the miller investigation for example i don't think so the moeller investigation has really focused more on the possibility of collusion with russia during the two thousand and sixteen election they want to know whether the trump administration cooperated with russia in its interference in the u.s. election so this will be a separate issue not to say it won't be an important issue it may be something that's brought up. probably not at the head of state level but at the cabinet level or intergovernmental meetings but i don't think it will be a major factor in the miller investigation i think koenig deputy director of the scowcroft scent of a strategy and security certainty so much for sharing your views with us thank you
