around the world but the indonesian island of number one has been hit by its second badly quake in a week. it collapsed buildings and triggered mass power cuts sending people into the streets. and 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 long books west and north where many homes were poorly built i mean with the ground but. 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 bali the city hospital was affected waited for doctors set up a makeshift clinic in the sweet. song of the earthquake was extremely big i was on

a lot of rescue workers are now looking into the auto parts of this area of course to see where more victims are being buried under the rubble it's a it's a wide area of devastation and more and more rescue workers are coming in right now the students have been protesting for a ninth day in bangladesh despite government promises to me. look at their road safety concerns buses were running again around the capital but at east west university police and groups armed with wooden battens attack students activists say they are linked to the government riot police also used tear gas to disperse crowds in the capital a security law has been imposed so police can arrest people in a group of more than four protests began last week of the deaths of two students who were hit by a speeding bus will tanveer choudhry is live for us now in the capital dhaka so. what is happening there right now. well right now the straits

reasonably quiet but it's very tense the city now you have mentioned the east west university that is one hot spot with does a lot of clashes went on. students range there was another area called bush and i with this two major university and independent university and. not south university the students right bringing out a protest rally against attack against the other student in east west and they were heavily confronted by police at least forty students right a hard according to local media and our source says police to use rubber bullets as well as tear gas and a hospital source appel a hospital that at least forty students were admitted that were different kind of injuries this is true in sudan another incident happened in the dock a university campus later in the afternoon when students tried to bring out a rally and protest there were also met with police about in charge and they were dispersed quickly they were not allowed to protest this happened all today against

the backdrop of what happened in the last one week now with that journalist also brought out a silent rally in different parts of the city they were protesting the harassment they're facing within the last two days at least a dozen sub journalists were hired and we know a doctor showed the law and one of the prominent for talking a part of who was arrested has been produced in court after twenty one hours and he's been taken into police remand for seven days for spreading what they call propaganda in the facebook and electronic media he's charged under section fifty seven off information communication technology which is notorious because you cannot spread anything what the government perceive as propaganda is misinformation so both angle of the journalists not able to cover protests rallies because they feel intimidated and threatened because the police won't protect them most of the journalists we spoke to told us that we don't want to go to the sport of studies because we are not secure the police don't protect us and there are a lot of unduly unknown elements within that. rallies. who targets the journalist

specifically so this is overall situation it doesn't seem like things are dies down the united peers like this is going to continue for a while because the students are now more upset because they were attacked for no apparent reason and very brutally so so we'll have to see how in the next few days all this outcome is in a very politically terms country whether the election is the end of this year we'll have to see what happens with the next few days yet thanks for the update tanveer and hope you stay safe under some challenging conditions to attend the cherry life mission there. a saudi arabia has expelled canada's ambassador and frozen all new trade and investment the saudis are accusing the canadian government of interfering in their affairs for complaining about the arrest of human rights activists in a tweet jan reports. canada's a bastard saudi arabia is on his way home to saudi say dennis for act is no longer

welcome and they're accusing the canadian government of interfering in the kingdom's internal affairs as well as spreading misinformation at. the soda ministry of foreign affairs has expressed disbelief by this negative a phone dot com which was not based on any accurate or true information the diplomatic dispute was triggered by the canadian embassy in riyadh tweeting its concern about the arrest of civil society and women's rights activist including summer but the tweets urges saudi authorities to release them women's suffrage political activists some are but he was honored in two thousand and twelve by then u.s. secretary of state hillary clinton and first lady michelle obama but though he was jailed after suing the kingdom for the right to choose her own husband reasonable person. free her brother right but we was sentenced to ten years and one thousand lashes in two thousand and fourteen for insulting islam through

a blogging website for public debate others arrested by saudi police have pressed for the rights of women and the rights of shia muslim minority another woman was taken into custody because she's married to an islamic law scholar is absolutely ridiculous that the saudi authorities can and no one had come through with some some limited reforms like the left and the driving bad but on the other hand over rest of their e same women who helped to bring about this reform since may we've seen more than a dozen women's rights activists arrested in what is an unprecedented crackdown the kingdom has just. allowed women to drive for the first time and to attend sporting events and cinemas have opened after being banned saudi arabia is a major trading partner supplying ten percent of canadian crude oil imports canada listed saudi arabia as the second largest buyer of canadian after the us the two countries signed a twelve billion dollar arms deal four years ago china that was through the courts

and there are many and also the r.b.i. is the source of revenue for a number of universities thousands of. comments and universities for verification critics say canada's allies must help in taking a stand to pressure the kingdom to stop its crackdown on activists calling for change. on al-jazeera by amnesty international has a backed candidates position saying instead of pursuing human rights reform the government of saudi arabia has chosen to lash out with punitive measures in the face of criticism states with significant influence in saudi arabia such as the usa u.k. and france have now remained silent for too long it is now time for other governments to join canada in increasing the pressure on saudi arabia to release all prisoners

of conscience immediately a lot now beg them is a woman's rights research a for the middle east and north africa human rights watch. it's absolutely ridiculous that the saudi authorities can i'm the one hand come through with some sun limited reforms like the left and the driving bad but on the other hand arrest a very same women who helped to bring about this reform since may we've seen more than a dozen women's rights activists arrested in what is an unprecedented crackdown we have never seen women's rights activists arrested in this manner in which there's been a smear campaign against them and which has been unrelenting in that the campaign of for arrest has continued only last week we have seen the most prominent women's rights defender summer brother we've being arrested despite the fact that she is internationally renowned and also despite the fact that she herself has been fairly quiet in the last few months so it is not just about whether or not you have been considered to be active in the moment but your past women's rights activism is in itself something that the assad your thought is

a going after. plenty more ahead on this new community protected now needing constant care we talk to a policeman badly hurt in an isolated tack in northern iraq. war on the huge forest fire in portugal that's devastating villages and destroying lives and later in sport tennis is rising star hits form ahead of the u.s. open is here with that story. but first let's return to our top story the earthquake on the indonesian island of lombok thousands of people there homeless and rescue teams struggling to get to some areas tiffany low is asia pacific operations coordinator for the international federation of the red cross and less crescent societies she's just driven to the north. she joins us now on the phone from there thanks for being with us so tell us

what you saw there and at this point are you getting a clearer picture of the damage on the island i thank you for having me yes but we've traveled the country for a month we are right for the morning and we. get closer to the epicenter of the earthquake. increasing and didn't do it active duty damage rule. and as well as damaging destroyed a big building well. here's where it could be quiet because the people who was evacuated are you afraid to return. and what is the what is the most urgent need right now i mean we we're reporting there about to fact so many people are having to do to sleep wherever they can tonight what's what's the biggest challenge for your organization right now. definitely for

a. look at urgent need for the community our emergency shelter clean water. and access to emergency health care especially first aid for those who have been injured in the quake. indonesian red cross of course has years of experience in responding to defects of disasters and supporting communities not just during the response but also after as well as working in the disrepair they're very well placed in position within communities as well including nation read to the government to provide the assistance required by the community defected. and from what you've seen there how how well equipped and how well prepared is the government in dealing with this we were hearing from our correspondent earlier about the lack of heavy equipment and so on to clear so much of the day breathing

i think at this point in time it's still too early to say definitely clearing debris that is a huge priority but it's also not forgetting. the other types of assistance that also required in terms of health care and provision of water and this is where coordinating with other agencies that are that are present in country this is where where essentially the indonesian red cross has been working closely with them in sharing information on assessment data as well as trying to cull the gaps where identified so it's going to be a long process everything's not going to happen within twenty four hours but it doesn't stop them from from trying to do the best they can at this point in time to funny love thanks very much for being with us. now donald trump's economic squeeze on iran is about to be intensified the white house will

announce details of new sanctions and those being reimposed in a few hours u.s. secretary of state mike pompei o says they're part of the country's efforts against what he calls iran's malign activity it has now been one thousand days since the u.s. president formally withdrew from the iran nuclear deal the sanctions are likely to weaken the iranian reality and they will also block iran from getting american dollars the u.s. will cease imports from iran including food cards and carpets sanctions will also limit iran's ability to buy raw materials like steel and coal along with precious metals and then in another ninety days from now the starts of november more sanctions will kick in they'll include measures specifically targeting the sector as well as foreign banks to do business with iran the european union says it is sticking to the twenty fifteen nuclear deal with iran it said it deeply regrets the

reimposition of u.s. sanctions and iran's foreign minister says his country will overcome the economic measures and won't be changing its regional policies from tehran from the reports. on july fourteenth two thousand and fifteen america and iran made history with the help of germany france china and russia the decades long signed a joint comprehensive plan of action the agreement years in the making used economic sanctions in return for curbs on iran's development of nuclear technology . signed in vienna it was celebrated and. many iranians thought the lifting of sanctions which had crippled the economy for years was the beginning of the end of their struggle for their leaders it was the fulfillment of their election campaign promise. today is the day that marked a starting point for a new mood a new dynamism and exuberance the first day for a new hope a better future for our young people and

a starting point for the more rapid development and progress of our great nation of iran. but iran's relief from economic isolation was to be short lived any hopes iranians had of normal trade links with the outside world unfettered access to the global banking system and foreign investment to help develop their country were dashed by this man powerful. three years after it was signed the u.s. president fulfilled a campaign promise of his own to dismantle the nuclear deal america will not be held hostage to nuclear blackmail we will not allow american cities to be threatened with destruction and we will not allow a regime that chanced death to america to gain access to the most deadly weapons on earth. iran maintains it never intended to build a nuclear weapon only civilian nuclear power projects and the international atomic energy agency the un watchdog tasked to monitor iran's nuclear capabilities has

repeatedly confirmed iranian compliance many iranians say trump's desire to undo president barack obama's most significant foreign policy achievement is out of personal animosity and an effort by the troubled ministration to reaffirm america's traditional relationship with saudi arabia if the europeans present iran with the mccann isn't needed to ensure iran's continued merits on the way and they ensure that iran would have its free flow of crude still flies and the money will be sent back home. respective of the us sanctions then the nuclear deal will work and not see tensions escalate any specific level technically the deal is not dead other signatories are standing by it and iran continues to comply with u.s. threats of secondary sanctions against anyone who trades with iran and american influence over global banking has denied iran the ability to pursue meaningful

economic development many iranians blame the rouhani administration for failing to see this coming almost as much as they blame trump himself donald trump says he's america's man to negotiate a better deal with iran but iranian leaders say it is ridiculous to expect them to sit down with someone who's already broken one deal and proven he cannot be trusted . donald trump has appeared to change his story about a twenty sixteen meeting between his son and a russian lawyer connected to the kremlin the meeting forms part of the mother investigation into possible links between tribes campaign and moscow he now says the meeting was to collect information about his rival hillary clinton instead of about russian adoption he tweeted fake news reporting a complete fabrication that i am concerned about the meeting my wonderful son donald had in trump tower this was a meeting to get information on a potent on an opponent totally legal and done all the time in politics and it went

nowhere i did not know about it from washington mike hanna has more. well the tweet which came at eight thirty five sunday morning completely changed the dynamic of the ongoing milian to press to 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 little which it subsequently transpired was written by his father donald trump which gave the alternative 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 to the interview table but incidentally as well that 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. government leaders in northern iraq say ice will sleeper cells remain a threat but a recent attack there isn't a sign of the group's revival the iraqi government declared victory of isolate months ago by the attack on the kurdistan regional government h.q. two weeks ago killed three gunmen and a hostage as the tasha going in reports from m.b. of the government building on the region's governor have been targeted before ahmed saleman isn't used to his five children seeing him in such a helpless state the police officer was protector and sole provider for his family

until two weeks ago he was guarding the governor at building the headquarters of the kurdistan regional government well a number of them it was seven twenty two am there were kids wearing flip flops i didn't think they would do anything all i remember is bank three men armed with guns and grenades shot saleman and rushed inside they took three hostages and killed one before being shot dead after a four hour firefight with security forces unable to move his neck arm and leg so lame must be fed dressed and carried. only. it's up to god i have to do physical therapy i hope i can get a couple of. the security forces chief says i soul is responsible. their target was the governor of erbil and to

kill as many people as possible in the typically busy municipal building that i was no motive on us and i still is in the towns of care group and mahmoud these are the places for sleeper cells now and where they have regrouped the security council of the kurdistan region says this recent attack is not a sign of an ice all revival rather it's part of a pattern of intermittent attacks there have been five in the last eleven years now that had he became governor shortly after his predecessor was killed along with eleven others in what was described as a terrorist attack fourteen years ago he says despite multiple attempts on his life he doesn't think i still will gain momentum in kurdistan there isn't a good that you say and agreement among the community from doesn't just side from the enjoyment that we huff to inject this idea i know that celine is dedicated

to resuming his career he's been a policeman for almost half his life for now he knows he needs to concentrate on his recovery one finger and toe movement at a time natasha al-jazeera. all right time now for the weather here's richard with a look at some big storms brewing in the eastern pacific yes the simplicity you might think why it's not in the caribbean at this time of the expecting her a contractual fact the hurricane season is very slow to get going partly because there's a massive dust coming in across the atlantic and also because it's something we call the mountain julian oscillation which i haven't got time to get into now instead let's go to the eastern pacific where you can see these great clumps of cloud strong across the region and in fact we've got two storms which are going to become hurrican to ileana and john and also one behind me which has got a sixty percent chance of turning into a significant storm system so that complicated this one it looks as though it's

there which is the greatest threat at least in terms of rain john is going to stay offshore and both systems are likely to run parallel to the coast running up towards barhai california so certainly on the coast of mexico here we're going to see the risk of some pretty strong winds for time and also some flooding but it's more towards behind california where we're likely to get some heavy rain developing jur in the latter part of choose day and on into whedon's day meanwhile as we go further out into the pacific because you get your value for money today folks we've done the eastern pacific the western pacific now the central pacific we have got a major hurricane which is hector in the hector's a category four at the moment fortunately the waters here are actually not that warm and as things stand at the moment it looks as though it's going to go to the south of hawaii. thanks richard now still ahead on al-jazeera how mexico's new president is proposing to deal with the drug gangs. all on the coals to improve conditions for a range of muslims living in camps and in sport the nascar driver who didn't let

a ninth day in bangladesh over road safety concerns at the east west university in the capital dhaka police and groups armed with wooden battens attacked students who were demonstrating protests began last week after the deaths of two students who were hit by a speeding bus. donald trump's economic squeeze on iran is about to be intensified the white house will announce details of new sanctions and those being reimposed in the next few hours secretary of state who might pompei or says they're part of u.s. efforts against what he calls iran's malign activity. and assist the saudi led coalition the backed by the us started fighting in yemen in twenty fifteen it's claimed a number of victories in the country over the past three years an exclusive investigation by the associated press news agency says they managed to drive al qaeda from their strongholds without firing a shot and that's because the coalition made secret deals with al qaida the report also says some were paid to leave key cities and towns others left their weapons

and also large sums of seized money the a.p. report also says hundreds of al qaeda fighters were invited to join the coalition the bax government forces fighting the iran allied who in the report was written with help from a grant from the pulitzer center on crisis reporting based on reporting in yemen and interviews with security officers military commanders and four members of al qaida or bad. and is a yemeni political analyst and he joins us now from london thanks very much for being with us what do you make of this report and the fact. that these kind of groups. were suppressed without firing a shot. your. i think one of the issues is that the pieces oversimplify it is a little bit of a more complicated more complicated situation. for tribal communities and local

communities it is not a bad idea to reach local because that prevents their towns and cities from from being destroyed or you know a living in a living in and. still kill conflicts so whenever they're not possible they will try to encourage actually reaching these kind of these kind of but it's not. as simple as just there were. happening behind closed doors and they're happening all over the all over the country outside the cells have a limited attack against government officials and the military officials who are backed by the south in an audition so it's a little bit more complicated than just. that the associated press mentioned as you say a complicated picture in yemen and how do we have is what's happening with our qaida

and the ten attempts to reach our qaida in yemen. how is that connected at all with the ongoing war in yemen right now between the u.s. the saudi led coalition and these who are still in control of much of the country. well i mean the priority for the study let's put this in and the yemeni government . who sees out of all the. cities that they can that includes. that's the number one priority since they want to put it in was what the map now. parts of the cities are also fighting. so in some front lines they do their interests. like a merge merge together but it's not a simple essay now those are just having deals with each other it's a little bit more complicated because on the ground you have local actors you have

tribal actor in the front network and you have to actually manage all of that very carefully to actually ensure that the main goal of the yemeni government which is to really gain again those main cities including the capital from from from the who's who these are much bigger powers and. although it gets more attention on the media it is not as strong and i'm not just the person who just common thing away i have visited many of those areas and i know exactly how not operating inside inside yemen it is not a big sport but they do create a lot of problems they can't commit for example suicide attacks and they can cause a lot of damage to any coming coming over and are we talking here about just just kind of short term agreements alliances of convenience. if you well given the conditions on the ground particularly if the if the root causes of what's

what's happening in yemen are not being dealt with. well the main issue is that the higher will gain finding a fertile ground for the government institutions are not function and as long as government fusion and lawlessness if you would like to describe it continues that support i'll grant role canada because the given the fact that many people don't find the main source of income they don't want services and don't want actually a government that is accountable. at the local level now there is the i doubt there is an agreement with all types as an entity but you would find agreements on a on a on a person to person level or at the local level if you're trying to reach a deal for example to leave the town or to leave the. good to speak when you bash ben joining us there from london thanks for being with us now the philippines president has held a ceremonial signing for

a new law aimed at ending forty years of conflict with the country's largest muslim rebel group regurgitating is calling the bangsamoro organic law a foundation of lasting peace in mindanao island it was stablish a regional government armed groups in the region have been fighting for autonomy in a conflict that has killed more than one hundred thousand people the bangladeshi government is being urged to quickly improve conditions for a change of muslims in what's become the world's biggest refugee camp human rights watch is warning of disease violence flooding and landslides in massively overcrowded camps in cox's bazar around three quarters of a million range or are in temporary shelters there after escaping the anmar and last year's military offensive against them. but the bangladeshi government says it is struggling to handle the influx of refugees it's preparing to relocate one hundred thousand of them to an uninhabited island which only formed twenty years ago fortification and housing is being built on charter in the bay of bengal but

human rights watch says the on and regularly floods and would become a defacto detention center instead it is calling for the government to register people as refugees and move them to areas near the current camps researches highlight six areas in cox's bazar which is says a less vulnerable to landslides flooding and storms there people can get better access to shelter and education bill frelich is director of the refugee rights division of human rights watch he says pressure needs to continue to force me and ma to implement reforms and give rights to the ranger. here and now i mean there is a real risk of people dying in landslides there's a real risk of cyclonic and certain simply the monsoon rains and selves on this the topography that we're talking about these these steep inclines people that i've spoken to living in huts that that their neighbors have already washed away

and they're sitting there right on the precipice people do need to be evacuated they need to be brought even within the mega camp itself to safer locations and they certainly their work environment there's actually valiant efforts to try to shore up the conditions in the camp but the bangladesh authorities have insisted that the campus temporary and that the solution is repatriation to my own mar while we agree in principle on the refugees themselves also on the right of return the immediate concern is preventing people from suffering and preventing loss of life here and now let's worry about repatriation as time goes on putting pressure on my own mar to fundamentally reform to allow refugees to go home but in the meantime. there even though it may have the look of permanency to build proper schools and have proper education of the children shouldn't be left with no education and

essentially that's what's happening now and the flimsy dwellings that they're living in that that can be washed away if by high winds and storms need to be shored up as well they need hard sheltered areas that can protect them and cyclons as well. a new presidential plan is being proposed in mexico to try to stop the drug gang war president elect. door thinks young mexicans can be persuaded to avoid a life of crime i mean to help him as a former cocaine addict and gang member who's been elected to congress john heilemann went to me in. the new local congressman from san luis mexico to meet his constituents he's unlike any politician they've seen before a child will burn the street kids just like them make good for some petty nicknamed the me he's is a blueprint for the incoming government on how they can rescue young people drawn

to crime he's bullies a patchwork of tattoos a knife cuts product of a life of violence and drug addiction until he hit bottom and i know. my mother was sick with kidney failure they called me and i was drinking with my crew thinking tomorrow should be ok and she died and i didn't get to say goodbye and to kill the pain i jumped in front of cars i tried to hang myself from a tree in my garden i was taking cocaine all the time i was twenty four years old that was the turning point he saw a christian mentor who gave him his first job he in turn says he came to faith and a mission to help san luis is young and marginalized but when i realized there aren't public policies for the young and that there are lots of them like me who didn't get to choose where they live children with dreams stops just like me i wanted to be an actor so i started to campaign for space for them to try and reduce the fights between gangs. formed an association an organized football tournament

stances work programs hundreds of gang members turned up to broker peace deals 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 now his approach chimes with the incoming president and that is manuel lopez obrador they should wipe 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

but they have a warning. to the newseum a moment 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 i think that's a test for me he's and the rest of the incoming government who they bring the social change they promise will succumb to their newfound political power john home and. san luis potosi how the new winnie the pooh movie will not be released in china and many say it's because leader xi jinping is prickly back in paris since between him and the famous bad china censorship of the bear started last year with authorities blocking images on social media and blogs a.g.m. brown has more from beijing. well winnie the pooh of course means different things to different people to many children around the world he's the adorable pudgy bear with a partial for honey but it seems here in china he has become an enemy of the state

that's because a new film made by disney christopher robin in which winnie the pooh of course has a starring role will not now be shown in china no reason has been given china imports about forty foreign films a year and while that quota hasn't been reached yet no reason has been given as to why christopher robin will not now be shown in china now winnie the pooh's sort of got in the crosshairs of chinese censors more than a year ago that's when images started appearing online contrast ing winnie the pooh with president xi jinping there was apparently a physical resemblance the most popular meme photograph of all is one which pairs a picture of xi jinping and then president barack obama with another picture of winnie the pooh and his good mate tigger winnie the pooh has in many ways become

a symbol and unlikely symbol of dissent that's because loucheux bo who won the nobel peace prize and of course died in hospital more than a year ago was pictured holding a mug with an image of winnie the pooh on it shortly before he died it was a final defiant stance by a man who had been a thorn in the side of china's government for so long now while it's fair to say that censorship under president xi jinping has been getting worse during the past few years you know as a journalist you encounter it every day here in china there has never the less been some pushback during the past few weeks just last week there was a protest by parents. side the health ministry here in beijing they believe the government is covering up the true extent of a vaccine scandal vaccines substandard vaccines that emerged were given to children for things like tetanus typhoid and also hooping cough as well as
