the full extent of the earthquake destruction on the indonesian island of lombok is beginning to emerge it was struck by a magnitude six point nine quake on sunday evening in second and a week latest death toll is put it ninety one people but the damage is widespread especially on the west of the island thousands of people are out on the streets after their homes were destroyed or badly damaged and even hospitals are having to treat the many injured people outside residents and tourists are also being evacuated from a smaller nearby island and is live in tonge on a city and the west of lombok so south give us an idea of what it's like where you are. yes the destruction here is unbelievable we've been on the road up to the north of the northwest and this whole road this whole coast road is mostly damaged houses damaged small restaurants and

it's very strikingly that there's not many people around it's completely deserted it's very eerie it's like a bit of ghost towns people are still in safer areas after the tsunami warning last night so they're still up there in the hills you can actually see they have built some little improvised stands on this thing there with their families but in the towns and in the villages there's hardly anyone there and let me give you a little look here about how devastating this earthquake has been because this happened just in a few seconds it was a very strong and very short earthquake and then in the few seconds this is the result of this earthquake it just completely destroyed this house and this is the picture that i've been seeing along this road up to the north a lot of shops like this one there's a shop as well a lot of houses people are homeless but they're not more concerned about their own safety because they're so worried that there could still be a tsunami you can actually see still people on their motorbikes fleeing to safer

areas right now so step just a moment ago i heard a siren but how often are you hearing sirens what are you seeing that is the help that is actually getting to people. well there are sirens nonstop ambulances coming in and out but it's very unclear how far this rescue operation is going so far i haven't seen many rescue workers to be honest i think they're still trying to cope with the extent of this damage because it's so widespread a lot of them also only came in later from other places in indonesia to help here and we found people like next to this kind of devastation telling us that there were still one or two people trapped under this rubble and they had no no want to help them to actually try to look for these people they were waiting for months and that still is nowhere to be seen as you can see in or story. it's tranquil beaches usually draw holiday makers from around the world but the indonesian island

has been hit by its second badly quake in a week. it collapsed buildings and triggered mass power cuts people on to the streets. i was watching t.v. when i felt a huge shake the land was shaking and people were shouting get out get out i ran out from the house in the dark because electricity was down much of the damage has hit west and north where many homes were poorly built i mean with the. help we need food water and medicine and right now there are many people injured and some of them died for whoever watches this video please share they may be able to help us here. at tsunami warning was issued and it's off tomorrow but it was lifted several hours later on the neighboring island of the city hospital was evacuated. doctors a makeshift clinic in the street. quake was extremely i was on

the third floor my mother who was being treated when it happened everyone was really shocked. paramedics. they've been evacuated. patients are now here on the ground many of the injured are three things here outside the hospital to severely damaged still happening patients with broken limbs and out of serious injuries from fall in the briefs are being brought in. still trying to assess the extent of the damage of this powerful earthquake. aftershocks have been as strong as magnitude five point four indonesia is prone to earthquakes due to its location on the pacific ring of fire those on the island are now hoping the worst is over. and reporting their buses are running again across bangladesh after eight days of student protests forced drivers to stop work but demonstrations are continuing despite the government promising to address road safety concerns protests began

campus area they're still under siege and there is ongoing clashes going on as we speak this is the latest so it's still quite volatile. i mean what happened last one week it's not just the protests it's there's also a pent up frustration among many students and general population also so there is an apprehension within the public sphere that what is next and that you've got to understand in bangladesh it's a very politically polarized country election is coming up this year so the political climate is also very tense and government is not of us about situation at that put up a direct british outlaw today which is known as section one four four and that means anybody more than four gathering in a place could be liable for any rest or detention that's a very old law and that's been imposed now to discourage any kind of protests in the strait for the media community they're very concerned today i spoke to many of

the journalist colleagues many of them are not actually covering specially the photojournalists this incident happening in the universities because they're concerned to go there alone and be a big time a gang like yesterday and day before they're going to happen a human chain today on four pm local time a silent protest to let the government know what happened is not acceptable. several journalists are still under treatment this is very unusual for journalists particularly targeted attack and the police didn't intervene and to say that it's a major concern for the media community to follow up with their professional job right now everything is reasonably calm but anything could happen things are very tense all right. thank you. saudi arabia has expelled canada's ambassador and froze an all new trade and investment the saudis accuse the canadian government of interference for complaining about the arrest of

repeatedly suggested a military invasion of venezuela last year but was talked out of it by senior officials. bolton speculated without providing evidence that madhur as government may itself be responsible for the apparent drone bombing now with respect to what happened last afternoon. could be a lot of things from a pretext set up by the majority itself to something else on sunday venezuela's interior minister showed pictures of the type of drone he claimed was used officials allege each carried a kilogram of the plastic explosive i want to see for ses. we have so far six terrorists and had been detained several vehicles seized several raids in hotels are being carried out in our nation's capital or very important evidence has been gathered caracas released pictures of defense minister vladimir put dream yo

visiting with seven soldiers said to be wounded in the incident and time a douro political leaders fear that the government will use the case to justify a harsh crackdown on the opposition the broad broad opposition coalition tweeted that the government would take advantage of the incident quote to criminalize those who legitimately and democratically oppose it and deepen the repression and systematic human rights violations robert oulds al-jazeera washington. has appeared to change a story about a two thousand and sixteen meeting between his son and a russian lawyer connected to the kremlin meaning forms part of a muller investigation into possible links between trump's campaign and moscow he now says the meeting was to collect information about his rival hillary clinton and step about russian adoption this is what he tweeted that is supporting a complete fabrication that i am concerned about the meeting my wonderful son donal

had in trump tower this is a meeting to get information on an opponent told him they go on to an all the time in politics and it went nowhere nowhere that i did not know about it in washington d.c. mike hanna has more. well the tweet which came at eight thirty five sunday morning completely changed the dynamic of the ongoing milian to test a geisha and into russian collusion essentially president trump has reversed the story concerning the meeting that took place in trump tower back in june twenty sixth with a russian banker known to have ties to the kremlin the official version of that story given by both president trump and his son donald trump jr was at the meeting was held to discuss the issue of russian adoptions however now president trump says what he has not admitted before that the meeting was in fact to obtain dirt from the russians on political opponents in particular hillary clinton president trump

essentially admitting that there was discussion by members of his staff with a known russian agent concerning involvement in the outcome of the u.s. election now it goes even further than this because donald trump jr has told congress that about the original version of the meeting he also purportedly wrote a letter which it subsequently transpired was written by his father donald trump which gave the or turned the reason for that meeting saying it was about russian adoption now we are hearing as well from trump's lawyers one of his many lawyers jay sekulow that discussion is ongoing about whether or not president trump will sit down for an interview with the special counsel robert miller an interview that the council is likely to press for even harder given the news of this latest tweet by president trump however jay sekulow also insisted that idea of a subpoena of

a sitting president was absolutely unheard of saying that should such a subpoena be served it would go all the way to the supreme court and would most likely fail to bring president trump to the interview table but incidentally as well that's. same lawyer jay sekulow admitted during that interview that he also lied last year when he said that that trump tower meeting involved russian adoption not russian collusion the sanctions on iran in the next twenty four hours then actual target will be can destroy including cars and carpets president donald trump pulled out of the iran nuclear deal in may despite no indication to iran has had violated the terms european allies are still backing the two thousand and fifteen agreement from washington alan fischer reports. donald trump has heated the iran nuclear deal for a long time he promised if elected president he would immediately withdraw the us from the internationally agreed deal if you could more than

a year for the finally did it in me this was a horrible one sided deal that should have never ever been made there are those who would suggest that donald trump hasn't even read the iran deal but he's against it because it doesn't cover issues such as iran's a ballistic missile program or its influence in the region those who sat down originally with theory means decided to concentrate solely on the nuclear issue to try and get a deal and they did. when the u.s. pulled out it violated the deal and upset international partners but it also set the clock ticking on snapping back sanctions against the government in tehran anyone doing business with iran a country or company could face u.s. sanctions europe india turkey could all be by. walking away from the naked idea of reimposing sanctions poses two huge problems for international players for other countries one is that they have to in a sense and go along with president trump shredding the international order that

they all signed up to and then they have to take a personal hit in terms of their finances either pulling out of iran are not investing in iraq donald trump believes putting economic pressure on iran will bring them back to the negotiating table there are others in this administration who believe it could even. change. is going to alter we have to look at stuff in the mirror iranian people especially jews are increasingly eager for economic political and social change but one expert says the u.s. sanctions policy might actually have the opposite effect both. in iran's economy will be under more pressure than it was or not enough to actually change its nuclear and you'll start to see the iranians restart the nuclear program all only tests i mean. donald trump has in recent days surprisingly off for direct talks with iran with no preconditions but a cold response from the iranians means that it's unlikely to happen before the

second wave of u.s. sanctions kicks in in november and that would leave the iran nuclear deal a shelf and struggling to survive alan fischer al-jazeera washington and already in place have to tame the deputy chief of the central bank arrive she was arrested for several others as part of a crackdown on financial fried famous probably has more from tehran. the detention of ahmed iraq iran central bank's top official in charge of foreign exchange comes just twenty four hours after he was fired and replaced now less than two weeks ago the head of the central bank was fired and replaced and all this comes on the eve of u.s. sanctions going back into effect against iran also foreign minister jobs reef is expected to address parliamentarians in the morning about the country's foreign policy matters specifically about u.s. sanctions and later that day president hassan rouhani is expected to make

a televised address to the nation this government no doubt wants to be seen to be doing something about the allegations the perception of corruption amongst top officials and especially in light of the fact that the result has fallen so drastically the iranian currency has lost more than half its value in less than a year just to give you a sense of the public mood in the country at the moment during the friday sermon this week the cleric delivering the sermon said that public officials who were involved in corrupt practices were traitors now all of this high political drama comes in the backdrop of a six night of protests demonstrations have been ongoing a sporadically throughout the country and police personnel as well as protesters are out on the streets in various cities across the country once more to demonstrate against. the country's failing economy so a most protesters as well as opposition politicians there is

a desire to see more than just personnel changes at the mid level what people are calling for is a change at the federal cabinet level which is something that we aren't seeing as yet. and this supreme court has to ferdie here and challenging andy administered kashmir special status that will now hear the matter on august twenty seventh anger over the planned hearing led separatists in kashmir to call for a two day strike article thirty five a gives the area ptolemy and prevents outsiders from settling their kashmiris fear into his governing party is trying to undermine that autonomy and allow mass migration from other parts of the country and hoping president to tear tasia can see here and live pictures he's about to sign a new law he has right now that will and decades of fighting with the country's largest muslim rebel group this is a ceremony at the presidential palace in manila right now he's calling the some more organic law a foundation for lasting peace in mindanao island that will establish a regional government armed groups in the region have inviting for autonomy for

between them. i see him as an example to follow that you can come from the barrio and still manage to become someone. now he's heading to the local congress not everyone's pleased many criticize his criminal past and doubt his reform he says he's received threats and was even briefly kidnapped but he says he can't let down those in the city's gangs know his approach chimes with the incoming president and those men will look. nationwide plans beilenson mexico's record levels and the incoming administration says the strategy has to change rather than just confronting those drawn to organized crime they say that young people need to be offered other options controversially that includes an amnesty for some low level gang members only he supports that and so far his base seems to follow him for they have a warning they're not going to miss the news yet moments just don't lose sight of

who you are remember it's better to be remembered as a good person than to have a street named after you and i think that's the test for me he's and the rest of the incoming government when they bring the social change they promise will succumb to their newfound political power john homan is it a sign luis potosi. and shall carry with the headlines here on al-jazeera there is widespread destruction on the engine nation island of lombok after a powerful earthquake on sunday and rescue are still have to reach some areas at least ninety one people have died but that number is expected to rise. in the few seconds this is the result of this earthquake it just completely destroyed this house and this is the picture that i've been seeing along this road. oh lots of shops like this one there's a shop as well

a lot of houses people are homeless but they're not more concerned about their own safety because they're so worried that there could still be a tsunami you can actually see still people on their motorbikes fleeing to safer areas right now inspirations continue in bangladesh the government promising to address road safety concerns riot police fire tear gas and students at a private university in the capital dhaka after they tried to march or test again after the deaths of two students who were hit by a speeding saudi arabia has expelled canada's ambassador and frozen all new trade investment that is accused the canadian government of interfering for complaining about the arrests of human rights activists building president are eager to territory has just signed a new law and then decades of fighting with the country's largest largest muslim rebel group he is calling me a more organic law a foundation for a lasting peace in mindanao island that will establish a regional government arm groups in the region how the fighting for autonomy for four decades. six people have been detained after what venezuelan president nicolas
