quell the violence by cutting internet services to cripple social media and censoring both bangladeshi and international media on the toppling out of them of the pro-government students attacked us we broke the locks of a building around fifty boys and girls took shelter there and now the journalists how to us to leave the place the police fired tear gas and used the tongs pro-government students also attacked and roughed up those i pro-government students are seen in this footage beating up an associated press journalist government leaders say they're going to implement the stew's demands for improved road safety but more protests are feared as both the ruling in opposition party's campaign for elections due in december paul chatterjee on al-jazeera. is taking a closer look at the number of rape deaths and accidents in bangladesh well than twenty five thousand people have died over the last three and a half he is because of reckless driving and excessive speeding that amounts to more than twenty people killed per day with most of the victims children or use his

earnings or lifeline for their families and the sixty two thousand have been injured on the rates. founded chadri in the capital dhaka has more on the nation's finance there were clashes in different parts of the city several students were injured major concerns been brought up by the journalist community at least five members of the journalist community were beaten up a.p. photo journalist was marketed between in front of the police by the ruling party member of a lot of what a generalist but also between and this just happened today yesterday also at least five other journalists were beaten including a female journalist who was given not only but she was also molested she worked for a major leading english daily i don't know what the government's strategy of why the police are stand by when the journalists have been in iraq and this will be a major concern for covering an event in coming days home minister gave a stern warning against anyone who they made the patience of the government the

prime minister's made today. some people are trying to catch. cloudy water he was even critical of like many of the media for their coverage this is quite unprecedented why i should criticize the media or most of the media covering the events on the ground. was mentioned that mr has issued a stern warning to anyone considered to have crossed the line he said no and forces showing patience it does not mean that they will keep crossing the limits and we will sit idle and watch the fatah faction if the images crossed. what is being attacked fifty also being arrested among them is. a bangladeshi photographer and social activist before his arrest he spent about a vent for it really is.

being let loose this particular incident. sanders it is really the. allowed to go through under pressure the prime minister's office reforms but then renee don't says this and that's also part of the reason so this time when the student did go on protests. it went to a situation where they cannot control it and the prime minister has promised that she will heed to the demand that people no longer believe she has no credibility she's made promises before it's not been accepted so now they don't do it but i think what we need to look at is what's happening in the streets today the police. typically ask for help from these goons to from but students demanding state roads i mean how ridiculous is that today i was in the streets there are people with michelle in in their hands chasing. and the

police standing by watching it happen in some cases they're actually helping it out i mean i've been on that warning that was here gassing and i saw the police going gang up trying to catch these are non-citizens where's the goons going will they finish at a walking past. and they're just standing but. a magnitude seven earthquake has hit the popular tourist indonesian island of long book video from the island shows people running from damaged buildings at least nineteen people are reported to have died a tsunami warning was put in place but has since been lifted a strong quake in the same area killed more than a dozen people last week said bastien has more from the capital jakarta. only one week after a powerful earthquake struck the island of lombok another earthquake happened on long but an all too a strongly felt on the neighboring island of bali both the tourist destinations also both in the peak season lot of tourist on both islands damage has been

reported both on bali and lombok but the exact extent of the damage will only be known in the morning at the moment of thought these were very busy trying to evacuate people from the beaches and sure because there was a tsunami warning in place that warning has now been lifted and only a very small tsunami a small wave has hit the beaches of not more than fifty centimeters high but it was a huge banega specially in the areas where also last week's earthquake struck a lot of people were still sleeping on the street didn't dare to go back to their houses of course you can imagine the panic and trauma in that area but this earthquake had a wider range and it was also strongly felt in the capital of lombok that with more than three hundred thousand people a lot of panic there as well and also the airport a lot of travelers were stuck for a while stranded they had to wait at the tom mark to make sure that the authorities would give a clear again so now flights are flying in and out of lombok again and it's very as

interior minister says six people have been detained after what president nicolas maduro says was an assassination attempt on him the president accuses colombia and a group of u.s. finances of trying to kill him but it is opposition of his it could pave the way for a dominant crackdown mike hanna reports. this is a live broadcast of the ceremony on national television the camera begins to shake and president maduro looks into the air as explosions sound before the feed is cut soldiers who had been on parade are seeing the in panic number reported to be injured in the blasts north of iraq only investigation as evidence that shows those that didn't in the constitution the figo are doing his will in the public. a group calling itself the last day for and their last claimed responsibility in a series of tweets this one with the phrase time is running out

a few hours after the attack president maduro addressed the nation saying right wing groups within the country were responsible but also accusing the colombian president one manual son cause of involvement in looking for a mark and i have to inform you that some of those who carried out the attack against me today have already been apprehended and they are now being processed in our tingled although they tried to assassinate me and i have no doubt that everything points to the right the venezuelan ultra right in alliance with the colombian ultra right and that the name of one man well santos is behind this attempt of president maduro praying to victory in the elections earlier this year but his political opponents insisted the process was rigged many venezuelans hold him accountable for a major economic collapse that could see the inflation rate hit one million percent by the end of the year mike hanna zero. five fighters at the scene of disputed the government's version of events saying the explosion was actually from

a gas cylinder in a nearby apartment and national security adviser john bolton says there was no u.s. involvement in what happened in venezuela he was dismissive of my do is accuse ations. with respect to what happened last afternoon look it could be a lot of things from a pretext set up by the itself to something else he's made accusations accusing the outgoing president of columbia responsibility of what he calls the extreme right wing in venezuela that means the vast opposition to his authoritarian rule and he's blamed financer is in the united states these are things he's said before and you have to take them for what they're worth to discuss this further we're joined from bogota about gideon long he's the andean correspondent for the financial times and covers both colombia and venezuela thanks for being with us so so madrid has specifically named to the colombian president as being in some way responsible for this apparent assassination attempt to describe it why would he do that and what's

the reaction been there from colombia. well there was a strong reaction from the colombian government the public the foreign minister if put out a statement saying it and in fact sickly rejects it all of the accusations that mr the door had made and it's described him as absurd there was a certain world weariness about this statement he said look we always make accusations of this nature about colombia and all in all sorts of different situations and they should be taken too seriously in a government source here and what that meant one of my most santos the colombian president actually spent yesterday at the christening of his granddaughter and said about that that he was with toppling foreign governments as well said so the general feeling here the general reaction was very dismissive and i'm well that's the official reaction i think what that would be the reaction of most colombians here is one and in terms of the other the people having to fit in the u.s. was indirectly fingered and we've had bolton saying that they're not involved he

also suggested that it would that might be a pretext what's your take on what might happen to him tonight as well as a result of this attempt. well i think the fear is a sentiment about as well an opposition that there could be a further crackdown and we've seen this in the past when there have been incidents . incidents of rebellion against the venezuelan government that has been followed by a crackdown on on opponents of the of the that as well in government and a big another thing to bear in mind is that we have a change of government here in colombia on tuesday on awareness and what santos is stepping down after is an event to cake the right wing it will be taking out so that doesn't bode well for future relations between the two countries well what of those also there's some people suggesting that the sight of the soldiers running away from them from the scene of the attack rather than holding their ground might sort of suggest weakness at the at the venezuelan government is it would that be

a fair assessment or do you want to not particularly that way. it's very difficult to say really until we get a full full assessment of exactly what happened yesterday as you said so say suppress these as it was closing some firefights is that were the same you said that this could have been caused by a gas canister of those drone attack a parent or some journalists who were there who had been arrested and had their. cameras on this case had unconfirmable it's so it's still a very confused situation i think until we get further clarity from the get venezuelan government is the who these people they've arrested on it's very difficult to say what will what will happen next mr madeira is very very very very apt right in saying that this was linked to colombia in some way and maybe they do have some evidence we don't know who these six people are they've arrested but this is a loss a lot of skepticism on this side is all of the border being any involvement any colombia developments at and just to go back to the u.s.

reaction we had from don bolton sanity u.s. wasn't involved but there was at the suggestion from trump earlier on in his administration he might be keen on the idea of some kind of a minute change volman ten in venezuela how how much do people kind of pay attention to what he said in the past and whether that might be linked to anything that's going on moment. well this is something that comes and goes and it has that over the last couple of years really every now and then somebody in the united states whether it be from within the government or outside suggests that it's time for regime change in venezuela or that there could be a coup. by the venezuelan military cuts but as we know the only thing that's come of that so it's a lot of it is speculation it's worth some people and a little bit there could be some sort of conflict between the two countries and has been bad blood between venezuela and we have for some time going back to the days when we were chavez was in there in venezuela and out. here in colombia so some sense in many ways it's nothing new but i think this latest incident will. cause

some compensation about colombia among colombians particularly those living on the border with that as well gideon long thank you very much indeed for your asses thank you. coming up on the news hour from london. eye. on it breaks out in ethiopia's somali region is the government deploys troops after a parent rift with a local farmer cheese. israel's prime minister defends the controversial nation state law which has spot angry protests from the country's dreams minority. and it's fought the moto g.p. season resumes with us trade waste in the czech republic and we hear that story. rival leaders in south sudan have signed a new power sharing agreement in neighboring sudan it's aimed at ending the civil

to restore order in its eastern somali region violence broke out after the government deployed its troops there it into fighting with paramilitary soldiers loyal to the regional government mobs then looted shops and burnt down buildings including two churches in the capital g. jigga at least four towns were also been affected by violence and there are reports a number of people have been killed. eastern somali province has been plagued by violence for the last three decades at the heart of the conflict is tension between ethiopian somalis who make up six percent of the population and the majority aroma of people in neighboring or a mere province as well as territorial battles over grazing land there's also the issue of oil wealth not being evenly distributed since coming to power if he appears new prime minister ahmed who's a rumor himself as preached a line of unity while trying to assert more federal control of a somali province paramilitary soldiers loyal to the local government there have been accused of taking part in ethnic violence against the euro which has claimed

hundreds of lives and displaced tens of thousands of people since twenty seventeen . the central government has also accused the region's officials of human rights abuses just last month senior prison staff were fired after details emerged of torture at a prison that moment ago has more from neighboring djibouti. there's a tense handle in the city of tick tick up a couple of the somali region of ethiopia federal troops continue to arrive some of them by claims and on friday were that into the city was surprised to see federal troops walling into this city with hun. at this point the local or special police exchanged fire with the federal troops and these created some confusion which. began something that's so high a market of you go to churches and up to fifty people losing

their lives the government in addis ababa justifies why it sends the troops saying that there was not a rift between the regional administration and the federal government and that there was a plot by that it was russian to announce the suppression of secession from the rest of ethiopia something that was outrightly denied by the regional president . during his eyes jordan anderson who's an analyst of the africa country risk team that i am chess market thanks for coming in so what was your interpretation of events on the ground and what triggered all this so there's three key events that have triggered the deployment of federal forces in the euro in the somali region firstly are the reported plans by. governor or the president of the somali region plans to trigger article thirty nine of the european constitution which allows for self-determination secession secondly the violent destruction of the meeting by of

dillies opponents that was taking place in a different ethiopian regional states and this comes of the allegation that the people who disrupted this meeting were forces or supporters loyal to a hoot illegally crossed the border into that other ethiopian region thirdly he was someone to us about to discuss these issues with the if you can prime minister he refused and instead he ordered his own regional forces out onto the street. streets of the capital of the somali region and that's when we saw federal forces being deployed so i mean the government has said it's going to take all necessary measures to restore order what do they mean by that well so far we've seen that the point of the theo peon army and federal forces into the city a logical next step you may see coming out of the ethiopian government is the declaration of a state of emergency in this part of ethiopia now what this would do is this would legitimize the deployment of federal forces also give the under the constitution the authority for the federal government to take direct control of the regional forces which currently are still should still be answering to obviously in the in the somali regional government. what's your assessment of how much support there is

locally for that secession movement i mean is it more that there's going to one guy who's trying to maneuver for that or is it that actually there's a popular movement that would want to secede from ethiopia probably the larger popular movement in the somali region is actually against himself his regional government isn't popular in the region and for the past decade has been much more about suppressing pushes for autonomy and self-determination in the somali region as opposed to fostering them really this is something he's latching on to right now as a more popular cause to try to preserve himself and in fact in terms of the kind of the impact on ethiopia it was him that there were these signs that sort of. were looking and things were getting better how did how much difficulty will this pose for the government this is a key political issue for the government as the new prime minister very much came on with a mandate of addressing the issues that were causing anger in the region and really the violence that we've seen over the past year and a half between ethnic and somalis is the last of these outstanding issues the new prime minister came in to address so this is something the prime minister needs to

take very vigorous action on in order to keep his own political constituency inside ethiopia in a romeo i suppose the only that there's a worry for the people living there is if it's a state of emergency that can be quite draconian come to an ethiopian is not it's not something that people necessarily welcome the powers that are allowed for the government are very wide ranging under the state of emergency and it would certainly be a very controversial. move for the government to bring in even the anti government insurgency force in the somali region the o.l.f. which normally opposes of delay has already released statements saying that it also opposes the deployment of federal forces inside the somali region so would absolutely be seen as draconian a controversial for the government to do but it would be a logical step once they've ordered the deployed forces join and thank you very much indeed feel inside thank you thank for having me. israel's prime minister is defending a new law which has outraged the country's druze minority during a cabinet meeting benjamin netanyahu said the law is meant to protect israel's status as a jewish state and will help prevent palestinians and illegal migrants from c.
