afterthought for because in the hours after the attack a spokesman for the coalition had to say that it was a legitimate military operation and they had targeted the point to where ballistic missiles was sent from into so these provinces now the whole thing about investigations came later. but what we know is a very investigation the coalition launched into their own exile nobody took them off any blame the u.s. seems to be a pains to lend them some credibility to the defense secretary has said he has sent a three star general to help them with investigations but there's not much confidence in what the outcome will be ok giving us the update from djibouti thank you well let's not speak to fessenden bahati he's a yemeni journalist based in san and that is where he is speaking to us from on the

issue off the saudi investigation the saudis saying that they will be launching this investigation are you confident and are the people in yemen confident that it will yield any sort of result that is acceptable to the yemenis. i didn't think it would be accepted that the side that committed this crime. is allowed to investigate it because we know that a sold out idea the saudi that coalition has investigated many. crimes like the great funeral a whole lot of strikes they did and that is no to come from this investigation with the saudis saying is like hitler saying i will investigate the holocaust nobody will believe him because he is the one who committed but the an international team and the bend international team us to be sent to yemen houthi movement has welcomed this move out of the one who should investigate this crime on as well many other

crime that has been done in yemen. you know that the un has recently called for a transparent and independent investigation into that attack and saw the province but in terms of how that would work and even the logistics of it how easy is it will it be for the u.n. to carry out such an investigation on the ground i think it will be very difficult but that the u.n. security council unlike nation has called for many investigation the human rights council has called for an investigation in yemen. the dutch government. into the home and right council to form an international investigation team but this was blocked twice by the united kingdom and the united states so i believe if the united states and u.k. want an investigation to have been into yemen and then they're out of the one who can allow it out of the one who complain about it on the show you tell me one

points because we saw that in the united states as well as in the united kingdom right after this attack there has been growing criticism about the saudi led coalition and their attacks so could this be a turning point at all. to be honest we don't we don't really believe that this will be a turning point because that fifty one that would have killed fifty thousand yemeni civilians has been killed before by direct. strike so if they have kept a blind eye to the fifty thousand to his being killed during the last three years i didn't think they would open their eyes into this this guy that has been done we could go on we're going to see if the united nation and the u.s. and the u.k. are really concerned and if they are really criticize this already we will not do anything with it it is though the one who is responsible for this must be held
6:57 pm
responsible the investigation they must be for must be sent into yemen and then we're going to see will the united states actually work with the result of this investigation or not ok for senate because we thank you very much for speaking to us from. turkey's interior ministry is planning to take legal action against for three hundred forty six social media accounts it says posted negatively about the plunging national currency but turkey's economic troubles began well before last week the lira has fallen more than forty five percent against the u.s. dollar that's the seer and turkey's central bank says it's ready to take all necessary measures to ensure financial stability after the collapse of the lira its promise to provide all the liquidity the banks needs while president rest of tayyip erdogan is blaming freefall on a plot to attack turkey's economy which he insists is not in crisis simplest of all who has more from istanbul. turkish central bank's decision to increase the

liquidity in the markets has been welcomed by the turkish business world however when it comes to central bank decisions especially to increasing interest rates there are two different schools of thoughts one which is a presented by president don sais that there is a specification in the international markets that puts pressure on turkey to increase the rate so that they can vent if it from turkish markets to the end and he says he is totally against it this wouldn't work and he will not be done on the other hand another school of thought say is that for no especially since the failed coup in two thousand and sixteen turkey central bank must have increased the interest rates which could have ease the pressure on the dramatic decline of the turkish lira but the finance minister is actually saying that there is an action plan that they are working go on but we don't know the details of this action plan he will probably be announcing soon also another thing is that turkish economic

management is working on a medium term development plan that is going to be announced in mid september however the turkish lira as the client must have must be stopped then they can on the management in turkey must act in much earlier than that but how the central bank is going to take position will it be able to decide independently from the politics and from the government is now a question but the markets are demanding for interest rates in turkey which present i've done a story to legan's. he's a senior analyst at i.h.s. market that's an economic political risk consultancy he's joining us from london thanks for speaking to us on al-jazeera what does the do the turkish authorities need to do as a matter of urgency to stop the free fall of the lira. well what needs to be done is obvious they need to reassure the markets that they will abide

by basic economic principles one of which is of course central bank in the pendants which in turkey's case has been eroded incrementally in the past couple of years another important step would be to. abandon their obsession with low interest rates and. acknowledge that the central bank also needs to deal with inflation and that in the absence of that type of action the turkish lira will lose value in the manner that it has done in the past couple of months while speaking of the central bank we know that one of the measures announced will be to add about ten billion liras that's about when and how a billion dollars. and as well as three billion dollars equivalence of gold liquidity to that financial system so is that all going to help at all. definitely there will be short term benefits but the key matter which is the structural.
