i assume that yes bolden could be the right word perhaps keen to get on with the fighting and try to finish it would be another description but yes the failure of getting any dialogue going in geneva was seen as a green lights the coalition's stated publicly in the yemeni government stated publicly that they were getting back to business as you might call it but others would seem that it was chosen would but the us there is really a push on right now and it would seem from reading going through the reports that the coalition does have the advantage and then of course we look at the whole chorus of protests from the international community mainly through n.g.o.s and also the un that this will put the whole conflict into a much more dangerous phase where it isn't so much the fighting that's the problem it's supplies getting through to susannah and to other areas in yemen you know

eight point four four million people on the edge of bombing is the is the yet to be updated figures from the world food program furthermore a lot of agencies are saying that the situation with mao nutrition which is really critical right now is getting worse and i will take a quantum leap backwards effectively if supply lines are indeed cut as doesn't seem to be the case so we have a build up here of humanitarian crises over which will perhaps lead to more pressure full dialogue but this is this is wall this is the expect the mediæval the mediæval times the tactics being used that is to effectively besiege today to the point where supplies come in and to cut the supply lines of the fighters but of course that leads to cutting the supply lines of the humanitarian agencies and those in great need. now whether or not the coalition come up with can come up with

plans to get humanitarian aid in different in a different way remains to be seen we haven't heard of any plans along those lines but right now the focus is on the latest happenings and that attack i referred to that claimed to have killed fifteen civilians and twenty injured was on thursday evening and of course that would appear to be in direct. breach of the assurances given by the coalition to the united states congress to the state department that the civilians would not be in the firing line however later on we may well hear that this was really a situation where these civilians happened to be near some sort of rebel installation this is war as i say will remain we will keep saying unfortunately sadly tragically for civilians they are in the firing line there's no getting away from that. but true thanks so much andrew symonds there. four hundred laser guided

bombs are on their way from spain to saudi arabia after the spanish government reverse its decision to cancel the order the cancellation last week led to concerns about spanish jobs and the future of a two billion dollars contract for saudi warships the u.-turn is angering arms control activists they say the bombs will kill civilians in the saudi immorality led war on the yemen kate gould is from friends committee on national league legislation she says a stronger message needs to be sent to other nations which are still supplying arms to saudi arabia. it's truly a shameful decision we're seeing with this reversal that spain instead of sending a red light to and mass slaughter in yemen that spain is changing that to a green light to green lighting the continued indiscriminate killing of civilians and targeting of civilian areas like hospitals and schools and most recently

a school bus full of yemeni children so it's truly a shameful decision and spain should rethink this and also other countries should step up to the plate and stop sending more weapons of mass starvation and mass destruction to saudi arabia. we need to see more concerted action going forward we do have we know that the trumpet ministration is planning to move forward billions of dollars worth of arms sales to saudi arabia and the united arab emirates we have seen a lot more action from congress a lot of interest in trying to stop those sales and that every bit of pressure does help it sends a strong signal to saudi arabia that support for this war is not unconditional and unfortunately those spain sent the opposite message with this reversal. the city of struggling to recover two years after the iraqi army defeated i saw fighters battle

rebuild the reconstruction of fallujah is part of a bigger building program in iraq which is being managed from here in baghdad at the ministry of construction and housing budgets are tight and it's up to the individual cities to manage the money to get. new projects are needed to improve things after i sold and also to fix the huge damage that affected the city as a whole this would require much support from the central government. but getting the proper compensation would help more people who pollute live from day to day rather matheson. still out on the news hour including we speak to families still affected by believin brothers crash a decade on from the financial meltdown which shook the world. and we look at the impact argentina's financial crisis is having on the country's indigenous communities spalled the los angeles dodgers edge closer to a spot in the major league baseball playoff. game.

have presidents a controlling monetary policy that's when economy is really going through its nelson and so while the economic situation is difficult and certainly this is a good signal to international markets that central bank is taking seriously the fiscal house getting that in order and demonstrating that the management of the economy isn't as strong as that the people leaving the finance ministry as well and those advisors around the president they really need to demonstrate that they have a plan to rescue our service economy from this period if they don't that will decrease international cautions the world's richest man amazon chief jeff bezos is giving two billion dollars to start a charity fund the money will be used to operate a network of preschools as well as fund nonprofit organizations that help homeless families with a personal fortune of around one hundred sixty billion dollars bezos has previously been criticized for not doing enough a charity. well in

moment just category one but this is the right in the very thing the rain is intensifying by satellite the shape is about the same but i've been recording how much rain has fallen it's been focusing on the northern side of the hurrican six hundred fifty four millimeters in the last twenty one i was also now that rain has been coming in from the sea because the whole story is moving slowly towards north carolina towards this coastal encounter so the rain is also been getting heavier heavier and we see more more down that coast last part one the winds one hundred fifty kilometers do not seem overly strong but they're strong enough to take off roofs to short out power lines and we've seen that happening already in wilmington those kind of just more or less where this thing will go right over the top now that's got the rest of the day to wander around this part of north carolina that will probably go to south carolina still raining heavily the winds becoming slightly lighter i'm probably probably i say by the end the weekend it will be crossing over the border even could even reach parts of kentucky but we've got two

already moved from their homes. prisoners in southern yemen have been targeted in the continuing bombardment of the central prison in a densely populated part of the city and there are some neighborhoods were also bombed. to talk more about what's happening in yemen i'm joined on sat by him very hard he's the associate professor of conflict resolution and humanitarian studies. institute good to have you with us thank you so what's the situation now with her day that is the lifeline between it and the rest of the country and particularly sanna now cut off not totally though it is significant for the coalition to be in control of the main road that links to this. new development that is i think this is a major development that's significant and it affects the situation in two ways one

is that the logistical support from the head the court to the author of the day there will be affected and second which is more important than my view is that international assistance humanitarian assistance. it's coming from the rest of the world it's all coming from a day done. with his have been in charge of distributing taking these here anything assistance to sign on to the rest of us this is now the aid operations are really going to grind to a halt and that is that's correct sami and this is actually sending this is very a lot of it like because all because there is something children on the brink of starvation according to save the children that is correct actually according to this grand you on humanitarian assistance quote of the she said this morning that the twenty five percent of the children in sana'a in sorry they're experiencing malnutrition and for this now destruction in the roads between.

sun and. this will actually it's very alarming that will impact the humanitarian assistance distributed to those the human actually there are talks about if there is no plan in place this might cause might cause some sort of a starvation and in yemen if they don't come up the coalition doesn't come up with a plan is to how to. handle this and to do that but also let's keep in mind not over this because i think though the main road. is now not connected between sun r. and they that there are still my not roads that with his might still also receive some logistical support from that had the port in son are so out of danger isn't about to fall. and well definitely not and some are because we're not talking about but it's going to affect their situation and i think it well with the with the whole day that is going to fall in the hands of the coalition i think it's too

little talk about this because the coalition so far has does not have a solid plan of how other than just import imposing a blockade the maximum and as we nor kids never. solves the situations because we have the city of ties that has been under forty three years and has not been has not surrendered so was a blockade is not going to solve the problem because the whole thing. enjoying some support ok there is different from tai's though what is the what is the situation in a day the cutting off road the main highway what does it mean not just for data but for sun and some of the more northern areas yes the mean impact will be it is humanitarian because. if you if this is not the horses are not able to deliver the assistance that they receive from no aid will be delivered to tucson and this is extremely a lot of aid in terms of humanitarian assistance because yemen is now most of human

living on humanitarian assistance receiving from overseas and if the situation there continued the bombardment chaos happening in the data this week this is alarming to the extent that we could be talking about some sort of a starvation that's not as. good as always to talk to you thanks for coming in thank you phil. a renewed appeal is being made for hundreds of millions of people who live on less than two dollars a day the overseas development institute a london based think tank is warning world leaders to change the way they distribute aid to the world's poorest countries the world bank defines extreme poverty is living on less than one dollar ninety cents per person a day hundred million people survive on that now the target is four hundred million by twenty thirty with a think tank says extreme poverty will persist without increased investment in

health education and social protection it calls for immediate changes in how international aid is distributed to the most vulnerable. fourteen million south africans know about extreme poverty and it's predicted south africa will be one of sixty countries which will fail to meet the twenty thirty reduction targets for me the miller has more from johannesburg. the sprawling township of soweto is rich in contrast while there is a growing middle class in a vibrant economy many here live in poverty one of those people is rosy. she's unemployed and looks after four grandchildren with the government pension of one hundred dollars a month. it's too little money to feed for growing boy the money runs out before the month is over we struggle to survive she brings the children to this community center with they have what is often their only meal of the day government statistics show that poverty levels have increased since twenty eleven with

fourteen million south africans now living in extreme poverty surviving on less than a dollar a day thirty million south africans live in poverty that's just over half the population most of those affected are children while the government launched a national development plan to eradicate poverty by twenty thirty levels are still rising the poorest of the poor. live on just thirty five dollars a month spending a third of that on food reported by the overseas development institute says that up to sixty countries are unlikely to eliminate extreme poverty by twenty thirty almost a third of sub africans are unemployed often relying on the government social grants to survive but with low economic growth economists say this is not sustainable progress direction and the moment our population growth is higher then are we could normally growth or population growth rate is more than one and

a half percent and there are economic growth records we all know they get there if we are in a recession and are sort of. the prices so for africans. who are according to the o.d.i. the world has managed to more than half the number of people living in extreme poverty still hundreds of millions like rosie continued to be at the burden of hardship for me to al-jazeera johannesburg france's unveiled a multi-billion dollar plan to tackle poverty the announcement by a man you're my crimes to eliminate poverty within a decade or so ago has more. in a village in southern france this grocery store is a lifeline for people who struggle financially run by a charity it offers produce and fresh vegetables at low prices the service means the shoppers kind of forward regular meals and i want as much as i noted of the advantage of this sharpies that it stops me really hitting rock bottom when you're going through a rough patch to stop you falling too low when you don't have

a clue. i live on seven hundred fifty dollars a month after the bills electricity water rent and insurance i have three hundred dollars left on that's why i come here every tuesday. one in seven adults and a fifth the children of france lives below the poverty line that's less than thirteen hundred dollars a month activists say the situation is urgent it's why the french president has launched what he calls a new battle against the scandal of poverty so. this is not a charity because it's not a question of helping people to live a bit better it's all about pulling them out of poverty nine billion dollars will be invested over four years the focus will be on creating long term opportunities and jobs for people lifting them out of poverty through work and off welfare focus on more child care and support for deprived school children and also training and apprenticeship schemes the young adults. over two years also about having enough

money so that you can look after yourself feed yourself and have a roof over your head as far as this is concerned the president does not want to increase the minimum funding for survival michael says he wants to eliminate poverty in france within a generation a goal aimed at ending need and silencing critics who call him the president of the rich sunny day you go al-jazeera. in washington the congressional black caucus is holding its annual conference it's made up of african-american members of congress trying to ensure marginalized communities can achieve the american dream but critics of long accuse the group wanting to be part of the establishment stead of challenging it chabris hansie reports. massachusetts made history last week iowa presently beat a ten term congressman by almost twenty points despite being outspent she will now almost certainly be the state's first african-american member of the house of

representatives but as with so many successful progressive candidates she built a coalition of younger white voters and minorities on a platform of the right to health care education and economic and social justice policies that have become so ingrained in our daily lives this will bomb us convinced our so if there wasn't anything we could do about. but as we now know. when. one group was notable for withholding its support in fact it supported white opponents the congressional black caucus for president supporters that wasn't really a shock we're clear about what cyber we're on the side of grassroots from the side of working people and we're on the side of an insurgent left back that's talking about the issues that folks have been have been frankly in the black community because our issues that that we've been in front of as black voters unfortunately

there's been a centrist political class that's been sort of stymieing that debate and now it's coming to the fore here at the c.b.c.'s annual conference delegates can see the blast left. a multi-racial electorate across the country and winning with candidates who argue the goal isn't just to fit in to the u.s. a social and economic system but to transform it even to overthrow it but the c.b.c. has long been criticized receiving to argue that all black america ones is to fit in corporate america post tens of millions of dollars into the c.b.c. and questions have long been raised as to how the bouncer affected the policy positions of c.b.c. members from weakening financial regulations on the banks accused of predatory lending to black communities to voting for the militarization of the police or the expansion of the u.s. is wars abroad the congressional black caucus said it was unable to provide us with a representative to interview.
