well it's the end of the line for this community laura the school will be demolished the bedouin who live there. will be demolished they may be able to stay here longer but they risk continually seeing that buildings demolished i'm joined by mahajan one of the lawyers who's been working this case now for going on for ten years or so the end of the legal line for them yeah i think i agree i think it's a story regarding. regarding the issue of the militia in the construction in the village if you read the decision twenty four pages. judges make it very clear that they won't accept further challenge or legal challenge. over the demolition of the construction and i just think that from the pictures because as you mention the people still can be here after the demolition is being conducted why was this case gathering so much attention why particularly this this is not the only bedouin

community has been moved by the israeli military why this was such a major case i think it was the two reasons mainly reasons for stories on the regarding the size of the community and the history of the community we are talking about the refugee community they came from. inside israel now and the second the size of the community we are talking about two hundred people living here since the early fifty's and second reason is the strategic location of this village we are talking about a location which is very important significant for the palestinian because it's connect the cells and the north and it's considered to be the gate to jerusalem and of all of the israelis they see and it's very strategical as well as will they want to join the settlement we are talking about. surrounding settlements. i mean with father we sure do mean in order to create that creates. right wing

government lastly what is the community going to do now certainly in the coming days they've got seven days before anything happens after that what do they plan to do actually we hear the head of council here mr reed and he mentioned. that the choice of living here all just really a look a to another place is not possible is not exist for them they want just to continue being there even if they just to sleep in the floor without construction on even without tents so i support villagers in their struggle to stand here and to stay in their lands and they think this is what they're going to do and here they want. solidarity with the international community and. circle of committees thank you very much most so there's a seven day period in which nothing will happen here because the the israeli authorities are not allowed to do anything if the next seven days but after that

this school will be demolished that's for certain schools not just this community but other bedouin community nearby one hundred eighty students and that's the biggest concern really is that once the school shuts down where will these children go for that education or. thanks very much for joining us from that village better than village and and israel and the west bank. now protesters have been out of. yemen for third consecutive day there demonstrating against the worsening economic situation including rising prices and the collapse of the currency under simmons' reports from djibouti. three days of demonstrations in yemen came as a full one of the latest developments on the geneva peace talks the people here are calling for some help because of another enemy in this conflict yemen's crippled economy the norwegian refugee council says food prices in the collapse of yemen's currency that slumped to its lowest ever voted against the dollar on tuesday

threatening to kill more people than bombs and guns but it was the deaths of children in the saudi emirates the coalition led bombing last month that killed forty children twenty nine of them on a school bus that prompted the coalition's main ally the united states to respond we can't ever see innocent. people killed under the auspices of trying to settle a dispute since then we certainly gave our concerns to saudi arabia i will tell you that we appreciated the transparency of them saying they were going to do an investigation we were concerned but they surprised us all because they did the investigation very quickly came out and admitted fault and said they would you can't totally make it right with families but said that they would do something to try and do that and then followed up by saying they're going to try and figure out what went wrong and how they can make it right no mention there of the u.n.

calls for the u.s. to stop supplying arms to saudi arabia in yemen the people have to try to move on but it's impossible when even civil servants who haven't been paid for two years are reduced to begging for food but shabby and you know i mean people are suffering from the prices heart inside the cities people cannot find enough to eat this is why they are protesting they want to send a clear message to the lid. dimmick government. in aden political powers have been calling for civil disobedience shops banks in exchange offices closed down as part of the protests the temporary governing council which has the backing of the united arab emirates called on citizens to demonstrate against peace talks that don't include its members another twist that doesn't bite well for the un led efforts at getting peace talks going the council issued a statement reiterating its opposition to the talks due to be held in geneva on thursday aimed at trying to reach some sort of settlement in this crisis and so the

demonstrations haven't just been about humanitarian suffering but also political issues and drew simmons al jazeera djibouti. plenty more still ahead here on the news hour including. just days after slashing aid to pakistan the u.s. secretary of state arrives in islam about. face of the former president's coalition tries to unseat the current leader. and we'll hear from tiger woods as he's picked to represent his country and biggest team competition. warplanes have been bombing the syrian province of idlib where government troops are massing for what's expected to be an all out offensive now this is a pivotal moment in the seven year conflict and one that's likely to have grave

humanitarian consequences now the province is an opposition stronghold one of four deescalation zones along with eastern ghouta parts of homs and areas of daraa and. now the zones were created to stop violence and protect civilians but the syrian regime has violated that agreement capturing three of them since january and that's left it live as the last significant enclave of armed opposition to president bashar al assad's regime capturing what it would put almost seventy five percent of the country back under government control but to do that the government faces rebel factions with an estimated seventy thousand fighters now it is also strategically important it shares a border with the government stronghold of latakia now that's home to the biggest russian airbase in the country also the m five highway which connects turkey syria and jordan runs through the province and did live shares a border with turkey and crow warns that any offensive there will be considered

a red line turkey has encircled the province with twelve observation posts all of this is catastrophic for population more than half of them are internally displaced and the province now includes the largest cluster of displacement camps in the world exactly deca has more from antakya in turkey. all eyes are now on friday september the seventh a crucial meeting will be taking place in teheran the iranian capital between the iranians between the russians and between turkey we've just had the russian ambassador to turkey say that that meeting will be crucial important in resolving the syrian crisis of the conflict and that that cannot be done without resolving the issue of the province of idlib of course all eyes on what is going to happen there and when it will happen i think it's clear that the syrian government has made it very clear that it will be taking back the province from the opposition however turkey is incredibly keen to try and manage how that major operation is

going to happen because it's worst case scenario is seeing tens of thousands of syrians coming towards its border and wanting to be let in those borders remain closed turkey already hosts over three million syrian refugees so this is why you're seeing turkey trying to talk to the groups inside trying to convince some of them particularly. that's the group forming known as the mr front associated with al qaida they believe to disband itself these are proving difficult discussions so i think we're going to have to wait and see what is being discussed behind closed doors at the negotiating table and what can be agreed to contain what many will tell you could be the final battle main battle major battle when it comes to removing the opposition from territory inside syria. pakistan to three hundred million dollars in military aid was cancelled and his first official meeting with the newly elected prime minister kong is expected to focus on counterterrorism relations have worsened over the past year has this update from

islamabad. the u.s. delegation down in islamabad for daily expected to be crucial. just before the u.s. secretary of state. dies. after a few years difference. predator and. policy which gave india a more dominant role of one is don don of course objecting to that policy also on the card will be crucial on the fate of the conflict america's longest war. there's already faired there did. and that bug is gone also warned speech and of one is gone now the united states is trying to get on that it has to do more. their demands of the united states.

a backlash from the pakistani taliban who are across the border but more importantly pakistan has also lost a lot of clout with them so that it can't it can push them onto the negotiating table search want to be left out but mainly not only that we differ on these issues we differ on the order of national security interests namely we could defend nuclear option be enough to. liberate it. we don't want india to dominate to understand because otherwise we would have a fence have from both sides of a large market and the east and the heart border in the west we can't afford to have that we'd love to have these three hundred million dollars spared you feed north this dude in the corner water after the soviet invasion of afghanistan and of course ran nine one one happened we some of had national security interests that we incited moved in the same direction today it's not true and if the americans expect

that we would take on their front taleban not a thought of your feet think if they think that we can push them across hard to negotiate do our best but i think the club is not there but yes three hundred million dollars more do a lot of work to us. antigovernment protests enshrine current gathering for a major demonstration in the capital security has increased around palm and in colombia the protests organized by the opposition coalition led by former prime is amanda rajapaksa he says the government's no longer has a mandate after losses in recent local government elections when haye is with the protesters in colombo people have been walking along some of the main arterials leading to the syria to come into this proteas sidewall of they've been waiting for the former president that you mention my name to rajapaksa who's been very much behind the push to get these people out onto the streets and he at the moment is out there in that crowd walking around breaching the supporters who have come out

my children because they don't eat well they get sick the magnolia is in charge of the place and says there is a waiting list with hundreds of people waiting to be able to eat here a little to him but some of the situation is difficult because we are getting help from the government but it's not enough if we don't get any more food we can't take it anymore people it's difficult because people are hungry and they need us. the peso has devaluated one hundred percent in the past year and that has had huge consequences in the poor neighborhoods of when a sight of the impact of a devaluation of her faith on food prices it's something that a war is those who are trying to help those in need it this year the prices of food have already increased around thirty percent something that makes it difficult for people living here to buy some basic food a family like bread half and me. a few days ago there was an attempt to loot a supermarket in the neighborhood similar situations happened in another part of

argentina. we were working and heard screaming these young kids between fifteen and twenty they tried to enter the market and loot it's an example of how sensitive the situation is and it seems that the crisis on t.v. every day is adding to the difficulties we already face we are all suffering but some groups feel they have the right to go out and lieut. the government of modi is struggling to prevent an economic collapse and has announced a steri to measures to reduce the fiscal deficit makea had acknowledged poverty rates are on the rice and announced he will give extra cash handouts for the poor usefulness in young but one of the incest says much more needs to be done by that impetus isn't for us for stopping inflation is crucial right now but that's not going to solve everything there has to be an increase in local production to generate jobs or that we need to see a creation of state polls these are government have the clarity and humility to call on all sectors to cooperate with. the possibility of further rices in

household basics have many in argentina fearing for the future in the meantime there are those who are suffering the consequences of the crisis right now. and to see when a site is. a new book by watergate journalist bob woodward says donald trump wanted to have syria's president assassinated last year yes defense actually ignored his request the book is titled fair trump in the white house and quotes the president's aides questioning his chaotic ability to lead what would help uncover the watergate scandal which led to the resignation of president richard nixon in one nine hundred seventy four washington post has published audio of a telephone conversation between trump and bob woodward and which they discuss the book. because. it is free in. the right to our ears are very much it's going to be a negative book but you know i'm some sort of fifty percent used to that i've heard

some a good and very very good. as you call him has more from washington. really explosive reporting coming from bob woodward the preeminent and prickly one of the more credible journalists in the entire country his book comes out and he says that the president don't trust happy aides had some very disparaging things to say about their boss he says that chief of staff john kelly has called the president an idiot saying he has come often gone off the rails and saying this is crazy town he reports that secretary of defense jim mattis basically compared the president's ability to understand to a fifth or sixth grade level and that he reports to gary cole once the president's chief economic adviser once took paperwork trade paperwork off the president's desk saying that he wouldn't remember and he was trying to protect the country he also reports that the president has had very nasty things to say about his top aides including attorney general jeff sessions according to woodward trump said that he was mentally retarded and he referred to him as this dumb southerner. the white

house is pushing back on this releasing a statement saying that this is basically fake news and the president's come out and said that bob woodward has a credibility issue he really hasn't ever had a credibility issue and he has said today he stands by his story still the president's taking to twitter we've seen kelly matt is the transformer lawyers come out and flatly deny all of these allegations again the president saying that this is fake news bob woodward saying that he stands by his reporting. as patty mentioned chums been tweeting in his response quoting some of his cabinet members a statement from secretary of defense say james mattis said the contemptuous words about the president actually said to me in woodward's book were never uttered by me or in one presence was i generally enjoy reading fiction this is a uniquely washington brand of literature and his anonymous sources do not lend credibility and another from chief of staff john kelly's saying the idea i ever

called the president an idiot is not true as i stated back in may and still firmly stand behind i spend more time with the president than anyone else and we have an incredibly candid and strong relationship let's return to our top story the u.k. government's announcement that its charged two men it says are russian agents in the poisoning last year of a retired russian spy and his daughter this week to russia specialist matthew wyman he's a fellow at kill university and joins us from there now thanks very much for being with us how much of a bombshell was it to hear to resume a pointing the fingers russia's military intelligence services are you and then into by turned to the state. well i think this really does move the story forward quite a lot because the prime minister's statement really gave us a lot of detail about the evidence that we now have about the involvement of the

g.r.u. it gave us details of the movements of the agents that they're they're accusing so they stay in london they go on a reconnaissance mission to songs pre they they return to london they're taken then they go back to salt spray their films on sea on close circuit television in the vicinity of the screen palace house so the level of. evidence the amount of evidence really makes it very difficult for the for those who were skeptical about russia's involvement also that the british government had accused the russians too were they had overreacted to or makes it very difficult for them to sustain that position really i mean yes we've still got continual denials from the kremlin do we ever expect the russians to change their response.

i think i would probably refer you to your previous article on fake news the russian but i think the primary audience for the statements being made by the kremlin by the by the russian foreign ministry and so on isn't really the west it's the russian domestic audience and the theme that the the kremlin wants to get across to its own domestic audience is russia or is being victimized we are being victimized and therefore you need a strong leader like right amir putin i mean why would russia ever risk so much to target a former spy on foreign soil. yes it's a good question not i think very very three reasons. the first really in relation to what i just said is the connection with russian

domestic politics so the targeting was immediately before the russian presidential elections and clearly in those elections the kremlin wasn't worried about whether putin would win but it was worried about a low turnout in a kind of an enthusiastic yes for putin and so really it was important for the kremlin to manufacture a story which they would be able to present as further bullying of russia by hostile countries. i think the secondary reason was a message that the kremlin wants to continue to send to its intelligence community i think which is best summed up by putin's phrase that there is no such thing as an ex by so any any agents who who. become double double

agents will be eliminated i think i think the third message is really is really putin wanting to continue to send the message that the west is weak so that the notion is the notion before the before the poisoning was we can we can act with impunity the west won't be able to to. to respond to events like this and i think in that context the kremlin has actually been quite surprised by the by the strength and the unanimity of responses from western governments matthew wyman indeed to get your view that funk kill university in the u.k. thanks for joining us. as the us where the senate intelligence committee is getting ready to question social media executives about foreign influence in the presidential elections it follows facebook's revelation of a new decision from ation campaign aimed at the midterm elections last month the

company said it would shut down six hundred fifty fake accounts. joins us now from washington d c hi good to talk us through what's happening there what do we expect to hear from these to have sex. laura so we have two top executives appearing before the senate intelligence committee we have the c facebook's sheryl sandberg as well as the chief executive of twitter jab dorsey and they are expected to strike a conciliatory tone toward the committee members explaining and apologizing for the failures of big tech to adequately know about and address the election meddling that happened in two thousand and sixteen also are expecting these pair of executives to highlight the efforts of their respective companies in trying to prevent this from happening again facebook as you mentioned last month took down more than six hundred pages that it said was associated with influence campaigns

that originated from russia and from me ran all so notably there's new policies on facebook that say anyone who buys a political campaign has to fully disclose who the buyer is as far as what we're expecting from the senators themselves already this hearing kicking off some very pointed questions the big question looming over all of this is exactly how is this for meddling happening on social media platforms intended to disrupt the upcoming november midterm elections how are they intended to attack the integrity of the u.s. electoral system this is all coming amid some a chilling essay written by facebook's former security executive who resigned last month alex thomas saying that the u.s. has already failed to protect the twenty eighteen elections coming up and now the fact that he's looking into the future how to protect the twenty twenty elections facebook's former executive of security saying that more has to be done by big tech

as well as by the government itself pointing the finger back towards the obama administration or failing to disclose to the public and to the big tech industry that russian meddling was happening in early two thousand and sixteen and also laying the blame before the trump administration for failing to wholeheartedly except that this meddling continues to occur laura ok thanks for the update will have a close eye on the senate hearing as it develops. now to another event in washington d.c. the second day of confirmation hearings for brett kavanaugh is under way and is present on his nominee to fill a vacancy on the supreme court on tuesday but governors herring was highlighted by several interruptions by protesters and there was another interruption just a short time ago only moments after today's session began the anger comes after republicans got more than forty two thousand pages of documents stemming from

his previous work in the white house under george w. bush the senate will vote on cavanagh's approval to the supreme court later this month for us to become one of the most contentious and racially attended murder trials begins in the united states is about to begin as the jury is selected the shooting of a black teenager by a white policeman four years ago chicago sparked massive protests and a change in police policies john hendren has more in the most violent major city in the u.s. the trial of a generation threatens to set a match to a racial tinderbox we had a young african-american male executed executed jason vandyke the case hinges on this video when sixteen shots it captures the racial tension of the most segregated city in the u.s. propels the black lines matter movement and threatens to draw a bright new red line over which police.
