from southern france. rescue efforts are ongoing in the philippines where more than fifty people have been killed by typhoon one courts most of them died in landslides triggered by heavy rain in the area it took on dozens are still missing villagers and search teams there looking for survivors many families took refuge in a chapel which collapsed during a landslide for more let's cross live now to jim miller who's in the province of being gay jamila what's the situation where you are. well we're trying you can make our way through them the devastation that you know we've seen from sunday in fucking. the other areas where the thai simplicity blindfold and the big chinese japanese trying to get you to gone to the devastation area outside what we're seeing from the road seems to be our bones you supporting

by picking apart the tried to clear so many of the roads we've seen you saw do you a civilian of those who perished in the landslide instance if it is pieces you know me thinking that everything will be any the same as the dam so to speak and you think because it's going to make it even the local government cannot confirm you are missing count the dead as because this desk has these on the body they will be actually recovered bodies here that the number of those diet is actually a long while then to estimate what is now simply because a lot of area because it is me now here on paxil hostages you see basically. the efforts that we keep on efforts. down today by forming to the site has lead to this very difficult as you won't it has to be since the landslide because i think the chances of actually finding survivors is saying that it was

a stain on the system to be just fine because government officials but i have no choice because basically we misunderstanding the do the excavation is not possible because this is basically iraqi we're looking as you talk to assume in a live pictures from it's gone in the philippines there's no heavy lifting equipment that we're seeing we are seeing the rescue teams standing around but the search and rescue operation if it is still a rescue operation is being done very carefully quite slowly by hand it's literally people working with spades and shovels. by christmas. ok ok jamila i'm going to stop you there because the line is breaking up communications obviously a bit of an issue between where we are and where you are we'll come back to you if we can before the end of this half hour in the meantime thanks very much. well

typhoon has now we can but not before making landfall in southern china forecasters still warning that strong winds and heavy rain will last until tuesday at least four people were killed by falling trees and construction materials across the province of guangdong cleanup efforts are underway in hong kong a massive operation of cleaning up there is also well underway after one could cause widespread damage and flooding there to hundreds of roads across the city have been blocked by a fall and trees and debris flights have slowly resume but many public transport services remain suspended causing huge traffic jams man caught is one of the most powerful storms to hit that region in two decades. we move on denuclearization will dominate talks at the summit on tuesday between the leaders of north and south korea will travel to pyongyang to meet kim jong un for the third time this year mr moon is trying to revive stalled talks between north korea and the u.s. is expected to push mr kim to make some quotes bold moves towards denuclearization

order you ginger includes mediating and promoting the u.s. north korea talks for d.d. we will try hard to build a new peaceful relationship between the u.s. north korea and regimes and see the talks immediately so that north korea can move forward with denuclearization and corresponding measures from the u.s. can be used right mcbride is our correspondent as ever tracking what's going on on the korean peninsula for us rob this is happening in pyongyang north of the border is that being seen as good news in the region. i think so peter these events do not take place normally that is the first visit by a south korean president to pyongyang since two thousand and seven so it is something of a landmark there is growing anticipation both here in south korea and in north korea we know it is going to be a very packed itinerary the most important element of that of course will be the

series of face to face meetings between moon j.n. of south korea and kim jong un they'll also be far more detailed discussions between members of their very large delegations they'll be talking about ways of improving into korean relations building on what they have already achieved about tackling the risk levels are on the korean peninsula trying to remove the threat of military conflict but as you mentioned there the real prize would be finding a way somehow to restart the stalled talks between north korea and the united states on ways of getting rid of north korea's nuclear arsenal. south korean president moon j.n. travels to pyongyang determined to breathe new life into an initiative he'd largely started and which now seems to be stalled. he knows the price of failure could be a return to the dangerous brinkmanship of missile testing and. if it becomes

their. talks it is not about nuclear disarmament are stark and they asked back indeed are there hard line us in washington and seoul especially in washington they have an upper hand and probably will start demanding a speedy turn to their hard line maximum pressure points in holding this summit moon is following in the footsteps of a previous us or president roh moo hyun a like minded reformer who held talks in pyongyang in two thousand and seven. this will be moon's third summit with the north korean leader kim jong il and. their first landmark meeting was in april at the panmunjom truce village on the demilitarized zone separating the two koreas they met there again in may when the prospect of talks between north korea and the u.s. seemed to be in jeopardy. it helped pave the way for the historic meeting between

kim and u.s. president donald trump in singapore the following month. the floor in relations has seen tangible results. reunions of families separated by the korean war have restarted for the first time since twenty fifteen. eighty five year old banks and young was among hundreds of south koreans who made the journey to the mount common gang resort in north korea last month. her dream is that this summit could one day lead to a new era of friendship just about you let out that family members could be allowed to go back and forth and visit each other's homes nothing would be patient then max there have been other notable signs of progress the return by north korea of the remains of u.s. soldiers killed in the war but the ultimate prize as moon has known from the start is for the north to give up its nuclear weapons. this is

a precious start for the complete genie clear as ation of the korean peninsula. south korean officials remain convinced about what they see as the sincerity of north korea on giving up its nuclear weapons they believe that kim jong un accepts the fact that it has to be done sooner rather than later indeed during president trump's first term in office which would mean within the next couple of years but we have still seen a little sign of that happening as these summit gets underway north korea see it still seems to be holding out for some declaration a formal declaration of an end to the korean war and or some relief from sanctions the united states meanwhile seems to still be expecting that there has to be a move towards denuclearization that we haven't seen and moon j.n. as he heads north knows that patience is wearing thin peter rob thank you. the

united states has ordered the palestinian mission in washington to close staff bank accounts and clear their offices the trumpet ministration had announced the closure of the palestine liberation organization office in the u.s. capital last week palestinian leaders are calling it a quote declaration of war on peace efforts when rabbani is a senior fellow at the institute for palestine studies he says the trumpet ministration has shown it cannot bring about a peace deal and. i think the trumpet ministration is dealing with the palestinians as if their talents and one of their slowing will do what we say or or will look the raps will that and that seems to be what we're seeing here i mean these people genuinely seemed to believe that by exercising sure of their treasure and undertaking more heavy measures against the palestinians and the american presence a family members and so on that one day they're going to wake up and the

palestinians will have capitulated fully to the israelis on every item or substance i think it just shows through a lot of experience with these people and how they're only out of their depth trumps local p.c. . laws more news still to come for you here on al-jazeera including the worst is yet to come residents in the u.s. state of north carolina well they're being warned about the flooding threat posed by tropical storm florence plus. helping migrants instead of buying yourself a new car how one to repeat business plan looks after venezuelans escaping economic chaos at home. how the actions by the kick up in the northwest the europe at the moment the action
