temperatures in the low forty's bit of cloud around most is fairly high so it just looks quite attractive as the sun sets me more on the eastern side of the peninsula we've got still enough of a breeze to in the course of thursday temperatures here in doha of forty degrees celsius but as we head into the weekend i think we're going to find the humidity creeping up as that wind drops somewhat lighter and meanwhile moscow those temperatures of twenty nine degrees and certainly quite a bit of cloud around moving into south africa we've got an area of what we call convergence and you see this area of rain developing across south africa with the chance of some really heavy rain into the south so with snow at the higher elevations and some of the full concert of friday that whole system moves towards the south but certainly looks as though across this region was going to be pretty disturbed. when mexico's leaders implemented drastic and controversial energy reforms the country's oil owned by the mexican people for seventy five years was to be sold to

shells rained down on gaza killing three as israel hits back at rocket attacks all of this just as diplomatic efforts were intensifying. obstacle robin you're watching al-jazeera along my headquarters here in doha also coming up argentina rejects a plan to rewrite abortion laws after a marathon debate and divisions in the streets. canada will always speak strongly clearly in private in public on questions of human rights they'll be no giving in from canada in the diplomatic dispute with saudi over tweet. and all it see a ship load of soybeans a sale. killing in the pacific as china and the u.s. trade tariffs.

welcome to the program we begin with the developing story in gaza israel has been continuing strikes and shelling as a new day begins that it's targeted more than one hundred forty sites including what it says are military compounds tunnels at a training camp but three palestinians a pregnant mother and her child are among those killed israel says the military action is in response to rockets fired from gaza starting on wednesday night the united nations is deeply alarmed by a flare up of the violence warning it could lead to war under simmons has more from gaza. deep into the night intense bombardments the flash of outgoing rockets from gaza. israel's iron dome air defense system knocked out several of the missiles but the majority got through and in response came the blasts and claims from israeli air strikes. this is how it started here

a rocket unlike most of them finding its targets the israeli town of detroit has people fleeing in all directions in the panic towns right across southern israel under attack. the response was fast. as strikes right across the gaza strip up to twenty mostly bases of the al qassam brigade the military wing of hamas it released a statement saying in retaliation against the israeli aggression the resistance is continuing to fire rockets at israeli towns. the casualties may not have been a higher number but they included a mother and baby in a house hit in daryl barracks. as emergency services on both sides of garza's walls responded to the incoming and outgoing fire egyptian mediators bring gauged in trying to pursue both sides to call a truce much rest now on the real intentions of israel and hamas to warn or both

really intend to break down the ceasefire talks and nicholai madden of the un special envoy has been here before not so serious but he mediated and succeeded in stopping the fighting a month ago his words our collective efforts have prevented an explosion until now we will work hard to ensure garza steps back from the brink. can not and of and egyptian mediators bring gaza back from the brink again gazan people are in fear tonight that he may not succeed andrew symonds al-jazeera gaza city or stuffing to his following events for us in west jerusalem and stuff all sort of reaction are you seeing now that the sun has risen because the dust really hasn't settled where you are. that's right nothing has been

resolved it remains a tense situation having said that in the last couple of hours there's been no rockets fired out of gaza there's been no army activity but certainly as you mentioned earlier those numbers an intensive night over one hundred forty how massed targets military groups inside gaza hit by the army having said that yes you mentioned that death toll but you're not still seeing israel targeting how massed operatives and that is a significant change of escalation if you will reading between the lines when because we see these escalations come and go constantly you've had one hundred fifty rockets fired out of the strip overnight as well eleven of those intercepted by the iron dome the iron dome only really intercepts rockets that are heading to populated areas and is and you mentioned in his report this is also why you see such a response because some of those rockets landed in populated areas there's a lot of rhetoric at the moment on both sides but as you as we mentioned here in report there's a lot of diplomatic efforts continuing later today at four pm local time there is

an israeli security cabinet meeting you will have the israeli prime minister the defense minister their chief of staff of the israeli army and other senior officials consulting they consulted late into the night they were being advised of how to move forward this is going to be the second time in a week that they will be meeting so after a wait and see what comes out of it the reality is a hail nobody really wants a massive escalation but there are really two options on the table that either this diplomatic tract works and we know how difficult that speeding regardless of the major efforts made by the u.n. and the egyptians or there will be an all out war and everyone we speak to will tell you that the war this time will be even worse than the ones we've seen before and that's certainly not going to benefit anyone just briefly stuff you alluded to the fact that negotiations were ongoing because this has been the sort of tentative cease fire the egyptians have been trying to broker this cease fire an ongoing cease fire between hamas and between the israelis where all we with thoughts of the

moment. well all sides are keeping rather quiet but if you look at the movement of the debate diplomatic movements you know that there is something that seems to be pretty much on the table the u.n. special envoy to the middle east nick name lad i was in doha on tuesday talking to the cottage cheese you have the palestinian president mahmoud abbas he's in qatar arrived late wednesday will be meeting today you have a senior how master allegation of their political leadership who had been in gaza very rare meeting back in cairo talking to the egyptians you have all this movement going on we know there's various tracks of these talks there are difficulties it has to do the palestinian reconciliation which is incredibly difficult it has to do with the long lasting cease fire the end game would be to ease the siege on gaza i think people will tell you this is that we're going to keep seeing this happen this is not a surprise if there is no real long term solution for gods and there is an acknowledgment in the israeli establishment and from the military and from the intelligence that

it needs to happen i think i think we're still going to have to wait and see how this develops over the course of the day but yes i think as always with this conflict it is incredibly ficelle it is volatile and anything can happen but we're still at a stage where there's not an all out full on conflict at the moment for the we'll leave it there stuff and follow events as you say through the day thank you. politicians in argentina per voted against legalizing elective abortion after months of national debate and american session in parliament but the vote just over an hour ago followed more than seventeen hours of discussion the vote was close but in thirty eight to thirty one against the bill that had first been passed by the lower house in june following another all debate the deeply catholic nation has been divided for months over the issue. and this has been the scene outside parliament in the capital buenos aires angry pro-choice protesters clashed with police who used tear gas and water cannon to disperse the crowd thousands of people

mostly women had been waiting on a cold and rainy night while the votes were being counted lucy anyone is our latin america editor joins me now from buenos aires let's just bring us up to speed is what that situation on the streets of buenos aires certainly is at the moment. so there are things are very quiet now or at least they're beginning to be the streets are absolutely full with tens of thousands of people both pro and anti this abortion legislation from very early in the morning they were out in the streets for almost twenty hours under the pouring rain the busier cold and the wind until finally the vote came yes there were some clashes outside of congress but by and large this was a peaceful day and i want to underscore that and there were certainly not clashes between the two opposing forces it was a very bitter debate both out on the streets and inside the senate building itself but at the end of the the more conservative senators from the northern provinces of

argentina carried the vote against this legislation although those who are in favor of it and why i've been arguing for a long time now that there will continue to be illegal abortions in argentina regardless of what the government says and that this will continue to kill people they say that they have lost this battle but not the war and that they and their supporters will propose a new. abortion law in about a year's time which is when they are legally allowed to do so so indeed a close vote joy in depending on who you ask and you just touched on a point about how long it will take to bring this legislation back into the debate an amended version of this legislation could have gone back to the lower house now it's been rejected or you're actually saying it's going to take at least a year for this all to be reposed out and then deliver it back to the lawmakers.

initially there was some debate exactly you're right that this could be reformulated and basically the senate could kick it back to the lower house so that they wouldn't have to deal with it but they they those who are against the legislation realized that they had the votes they needed then so they just decided to go with it what does that mean it means that now it won't be until next year at the earliest before a new version of this law can be submitted and that may not even happen that quickly because next year is an election year and the political parties may not want to deal with it until after that election we'll see what the fallout is certainly over the next twenty four hours been a very long night feel assia for the moment thank you i said taffeta went south sudan's president salva kiir has granted amnesty to rebel leader right and all those involved in the five year civil war that follows a power sharing agreement signed earlier this week and ending the conflict now the deal gives care and his former deputy michel eight months to form a transitional government tens of thousands were killed in the war that began after

south sudan gained its independence in twenty thirteen. canada's prime minister just intreating insists his country will always speak strongly on human rights he was responding to an escalating diplomatic row with saudi arabia riyadh has cut new trade investment educational agreements up to canada call for the release of jailed political activists kristen salumi reports often trying to. canadian prime minister justin trudeau had no apology for his government's call to release two human rights activists being detained in saudi arabia canadians have always expected our government to speak strongly firmly clearly and politely about the need to respect human rights at home and around the world we will continue to do this to doe promise to continue to engage with the saudis and their allies with the saudi foreign minister wasn't having any of it he accused canada of intervening in what he described as a national security issue claiming that the activists had attempted to get

sensitive government information if you do something is no need for mediation going to them either a big mistake and has to fix it understands what's required from it mediation is when there are two parties who have demands in this situation the mistake has been made by only one party it was kind of the whole interview and this mistake has to be corrected the value of the canadian dollar fell on news the saudis would divest from canadian stocks and bonds experts predict the overall impact on the economy from this and other measures will be small but the message is being heard far beyond canada's borders ultimately this really is not about canada her sake and the here is collateral damage if you will or it's incidental to this issue saudi arabia is is trying to send a very strong and clear message to western countries to europeans in particular do not criticize us on human rights or you will be penalized middle east expert best moment mani believes domestic saudi issues are at play i think this has more to do

with a very useful diversion it's an attempt to make a. and a case signal to the world that it's not going to accept international criticism particularly western criticism of its domestic policies and i think the chilling effect has worked because we have seen pretty much no western european country including the united states as well in terms of supporting canada so it really has had the chill effect on the international western world it's hard to gauge how saudi nationals here in canada feel about being forced to leave the country because many are reluctant to speak but we do know that hundreds of canadian muslims who are leaving this week to attend the hodgins saudi arabia are worried about how they're going to get home airline saudia.
