6:01 am
a new prime minister in hopes of fixing the country's struggling economy. our top story so far today sweden faces a period of lengthy political wrangling after an election which ended in a stalemate there with big gains for the far right the center left bloc led by the prime minister stephan loaf and came out with just over forty percent of the vote he has rejected calls for his resignation and says he'll hold talks with political opponents about forming a coalition government the center right alliance led by the moderates say it's they who have been given the mandate to lead the country they won virtually the same share as the leftist outgoing government bloc the far right anti immigration n.t.e.u. sweden democrats led by you me will close and gain support seeing their vote rise to seventeen percent talks to form
6:02 am
a new government begin on monday but all parties have so far refused to work with the sweden democrats because the obvious weaken. well defacto of course i'm disappointed that a party with nazi roots could gain psion once ground it's a party that in this election has had representatives that wanted journalists to die which is glorified hitler and humiliated victims of the holocaust this weekend democrats could never offer a change or improvements in society the only thing they could offer is widening the gap in society and growing hatred ok let's wrap up the latest for you on that storage and all now from stockholm. the center left social democrats have been the biggest party in every swedish election for a century true again this time but not by far and it's a relief it's be their worst result ever i think it's fine the problem now is how can we make it. how can you be government with this since it's really hard to see.
6:03 am
how to how to make a staple of government this is an election that seen support shift from the center to the extremes coalition building will be tough one big winner has been the empty immigrant sweden democrats are not as big as they'd hoped the story of the night is that while the far right has become a force in swedish politics they won't be taking over just yet what would seem harry is a political earthquake. really brought his political history and i think that they're the leaders of the two big parties social democrats and the moderate party need to listen to this single from the swedish people need to do saying is the policies that the sweetest people want to see the rise of the far right in sweden meant voters took to the election with customary enthusiasm even if many harbored deep concerns terrible i just want to cry when i think about it they see.
6:04 am
awful things i mean yeah of course we have a lot of refugees here but we need to take care of them who they come from a terrible place terrible course we can't just throw them out immigration and integration have been front and center in a divisive vote with this country's famous values of tolerance and openness at stake so sweet and isn't in danger of becoming a far right state and nor are the sweden democrats even likely to make it into government no party at this stage will even talk to them but they are likely to continue to exert and in direct influence on the way ahead having already succeeded to the horror of many. in putting nationalism and identity politics on the swedish agenda peter waller dusky is editor in chief of one of sweden's major daily newspapers the tone has already changed it has changed a lot and i think the major change came in two thousand and fifteen after the big refugee crisis a lot of refugees came in sweden in
6:05 am
a very short time span and the systems here didn't work properly and lot of people reacted to that and the sweden democrats sort of logical consequence of the well they searched in the polls as a result of that crisis and they've stayed on that kind of result since some swedes will tell you the rise of the far right is overblown that this country has never been happier or more prosperous but extrusion politics are in sweden to state now and many other swedes see trouble ahead jonah hill al jazeera stockholm eighty four people have been killed in renewed fighting in yemen's port city of the data comes after talks in geneva collapsed when the rebel delegation failed to show up claiming they were given an aircraft for the journey to switzerland hospital sources say the dead include dozens of hoofy rebel fighters and at least eleven government troops who data has seen heavy fighting between saudi backed government forces and rebels for several months now displacing tens of thousands of civilians

6:07 am
sleeping it just missed him by few inches now that a city has a seaport and an airport naturally there military targets if there is a checkpoint if if the lines are cut between her data and santa then that's a disaster not just militarily for the hooter's but in humanitarian terms it's absolute catastrophe no martin gryphus warned about this he said that people had to sort of concentrate on the economy he was really forceful in his words but had to admit that he had not got the talks together he had not been able to separate the passage of the hutu rebels to geneva that's all history now situation on the ground as ever with warfare negotiations are far out of the minds of anyone there is a fight going on a fight that's got much more serious. i saw says it was behind a suicide bomb attack in kabul that killed at least seven people the blast happened close to a procession in the afghan capital the group was commemorating the death of the
6:08 am
former anti salvi at resistance leader ahmed shah masood earlier on sunday another suspected suicide bomber was shot by the police before the device was triggered. the former cambodian opposition leader kim carr has been released from jail he'd been in prison for a year awaiting trial on charges of treason he's accused of plotting to overthrow the government soccer's daughter says he's been freed on bail and now placed under house arrest the supreme court dissolved his cum buddy a national rescue party last year at the request of the government at the time the party's supporters said the move was politically motivated ahead of elections when he has more now from bangkok. there had been speculation for some time that kemp could be released and that's exactly what happened in the early hours of monday morning he was released from the prison where he's been kept for the past year and placed under house arrest in his home in the cambodian capital phnom penh the timing of this is suspicious to say the least given that over the course of the
6:09 am
past year and his lawyers have repeatedly asked for bail repeatedly os that this case be thrown out only for the courts to reject those appeals and now that we've had an election at the end of july an election that was won by the ruling cambodian people's party of prime minister hun sen in fact they won all one hundred twenty five seats in the national assembly because the cambodian national rescue party of kim carr was unable to take part in that vote because it was dissolved last year now the new government has also being sworn in led by one sin who will rule for another five years so it is out of jail but of course he is not free he's still awaiting the trial to begin after he was arrested last year on treason charges. sudan's entire government has been sacked by the country's president on the bush has dissolved the government and cut the number of ministries from thirty one to
6:10 am
twenty one in a bid to tackle a growing economic crisis he's picked a new prime minister but no other report mazarin arms so far arguments. in east africa economic and political analyst she believes many people will welcome this move. it's certainly a welcome move a very difficult political move for marshall to take but suddenly one that many people who've been struggling and of course. crying out to the government to come to come up with an economic vision that helps the people of sudan to afford the basic commodities which has been very difficult in the last sort of decades of course you know about the sanctions and the mismanagement of the economy and the corruption issues in sudan they could only have been struggling and everybody expected there would peak it would pick up in october when the sanctions against iran were lifted by a prison trump but it didn't and of course there is an election in the coming months next year so i think there's a political plan and obviously one that hopefully will sustain
6:11 am
and give the country or the government an upper hand the government has from clearly felt and the need to be seen to be doing something to appease the public who are struggling as they too are for the busy commodity so suddenly upon those moves one but is not not you know side of the politicians have been dropped will obviously be going up again some of the show but it's interesting time for sudan i think one important thing which the country has been advised by the world bank in their bigger west is to diversify sudan's economy to move away from over depending on all the info chris on investing in and the health care which that they have completely failed and also spending so much of the country's revenue on military it's just more country seventy five percent of sudan's budget goes to military took to the military and security and failing to to invest in other sectors. the ugandan president has warned other countries not to interfere in the country's

6:17 am
a group calling itself the kurdish democratic party of iran several fighters were killed dozens more injured. this attack in particular was very well orchestrated very well timed it was an attack on. the kurdish opposition while the leadership was in meeting on one hand it also demonstrates full military prowess. misfiled that hit the targets were very precise they had the very room where the meeting was taken place and there was a drone still a surveillance to take picture of this so this is also sending a message that this iran of today is more powerful than the iran of couple of years ago when they try to attack some targets in syria and the missiles were subject for ridicule. the group is iran's oldest kurdish movement it's been fighting for more autonomy for kurds in iran iranian government says it carried out the attacks because of what it calls terrorist teams attacking revolutionary guards in towns
6:18 am
inside iran's own kurdish region iran says leaders of the group that attacked on saturday have been ignoring its warnings to dismantle their camps this is a rainy an attack comes just a couple of days after violence on the streets of the southern city of basra a jury in which the iranian consulate was one of several buildings that were attacked and burned now there's no evidence to suggest that that incident is in any way connected with this latest attack but iraqis are speculating here that this is iran's way of showing it can strike back and strike back powerfully iran's missile attack has been condemned by must the former kurdish president he says he's urging all sites not to use the kurdish region to settle their confrontations iraq's foreign ministry has also criticized what it's calling a violation of iraq's sovereignty but it didn't mention iran by name in its statement this is a sensitive time in iraq with protests over corruption and lack of jobs on the

streets as well as anger in a stalled parliament and iran has a lot of influence here rob matheson al jazeera back down russia has accused the united states of dropping phosphorus bombs of a deer as well province in eastern syria on saturday the pentagon denies it saying none of its units in the area are equipped with white phosphorus munitions rose jordan from washington. the united states and russia have been at loggerheads in recent weeks over what's happening in eastern syria that's a part of the country where the russians have almost never been since eisel first moved in back in two thousand and fourteen it's been the united states that has deployed special forces to help train and support rebel fighters as well as kurdish fighters trying to remove the group out of eastern syrian territory however recently russia has been suggesting that it needs to move into the area near
6:20 am
darrow's or in order to go after what it calls terrorists the united states repeatedly has warned russia to stay out of the region and in fact says that a thirty five mile deep confliction zone around its garrison. should not be breached by the syrians by the russians by anyone else for that matter now comes this weekend when it appears that the russians are helping syria try to launch an effort to retake it live province in the far north western part of the country but the russians at the same time are now alleging that the u.s. using fighter jets has been dropping false wrist bombs on targets in and around darragh zor late on sunday a pentagon spokesperson said that there have been no reports it has received about the use of phosphorus bombs indoors or and it also says that its forces at the
6:21 am
garrison and tough do not have the capability and don't even have any phosphorus bombs in their arsenal a war of words certainly as the united states is sending a warning to russia and to syria to not precipitate any sort of humanitarian crisis in it look province on the other side of the country nor should the countries use any chemical weapons and their effort to retake it live for control by the central government in damascus. six hundred thousand children that's more than one a minute are expected to die from extreme hunger in war zones this year that's according to a report from save the children says four and a half million children under the age of five will need treatment for severe malnutrition this year that's a twenty percent increase on twenty sixteen tens of thousands of children will likely die in yemen afghanistan and sudan however the biggest number of fatalities and that's expected in democratic republic of congo where three hundred thousand
6:22 am
could die save the children war and starvation is increasingly used as a weapon with warring parties blocking food and medicine leading to devastating consequences chalis madonna is a senior communications officer at the world food program she says the international community must commit to ending conflicts around the world. well i think that the world needs to make it very clear to the parties to this conflict that they won't accept this kind of callous brutal and vicious assaults on innocents conflicts disrupt people's ability to farm to keep their livestock jobs disappear it can lead to economic collapse that causes food prices to skyrocket so even people who are miles and miles and miles away from any active fighting will find that they are no longer able to afford the simplest of meals in south sudan for example it takes a day and a half of wages for an average person to be able to afford
6:23 am
a simple plate of beliefs of beans do so it's absolutely imperative that the world . makes a political commitment to ending these conflicts and to ending them quickly and in most countries we are still making very good progress in dealing with the chronic systemic problems that keep people chronically hungry the poverty and the un unemployment and the other sort of development challenges we're making progress against those things in almost every country on earth that's just a handful of places. save the children has outlines tons of them where things are so bad that they're actually reversing the progress they're outweighing the progress that's being made in all of the other countries on earth and that is deeply shocking and it has to stop now the head of the u.s. media giant c.b.s. les moonves is stepping down off the new allegations of sexual harassment and sexual assault came to light his resignation is effective immediately the new
