and dutch envoys and accused their governments of harboring members of separatist groups iran accuses of attacks inside the country and tweets by a political scientist based in the united arab emirates exposed iran's fraught relationship with. said it was not a terrorist attack because the parade was a legitimate military target even though civilians were among the casualties iran's foreign ministry spokesman said iran warned the shore's duff air of the united arab emirates that open support of terrorist operations from people affiliated with the officials is the responsibility of the government and being indifferent about this is unacceptable senior iranian military officers are blaming saudi arabia while president hassan rouhani says the united states is intent on supporting ethnic arab separatists to create instability inside his country and they can confront us all they want the problem is they don't like the fact that we've called them out we've called them out for ballistic missile testing we call them out for their support of

terrorism we call them out for their arms sales and they don't like it and not only that the worst of all we stop the hundreds of billions of dollars that were going to them and allowing them to do these and so their economy is plummeting their deals that they had are falling apart and they're getting desperate while rouhani is expected to use his time at. the united nations to raise what he describes as america's numerous violations of international law the attack in a vase will no doubt influence iran's message. not to have. the supreme leader is upset at the activities of countries in the persian gulf especially saudi arabia and the u.a.e. who are playing the role of bad cop in the region even groups inside iran that carried out attacks or were arrested before an attack they confessions of very clear they themselves confessed that they had trained in saudi arabia all the u.a.e. . a day of mourning has been declared across the country and grieving families are

preparing funerals iran's foreign ministry said government sponsors of separatist groups cannot hide their role and military leaders warn they reserve the right to respond against attackers and their backers an indication of how angry or iranian leaders are came by way of a statement from the chief of iran's armed forces major general mohammad bathory said his country is determined now more than ever to hunt down terrorists anywhere in the world and wipe them out zain bus ravi old zero to her own. well as you had the iran attack is likely to raise tensions at this week's u.n. general assembly diplomatic editor james bases life for us now in ited nations and as you were hearing that james iran has accused certain countries of indifference and hypocrisy in the aftermath of the vase attack what can we expect at the u.n. general assembly. well iran was always i think going to be the key issue this time around remember

a few months ago president trump did what he'd been saying he was going to do for months which is pulled out of the iran nuclear deal he very much has iran in his sights say year ago it was all condemnation of north korea but of course that has changed and he believes that his government is now on the right path with north korea president rouhani will also be here in new york addressing the general assembly will watch both of those speeches to world leaders but also we need to watch a meeting of the u.n. security council which is taking place on wednesday here in new york the u.s. happens to have the monthly presidency of the security council and they've decided to have a meeting at leader levels around the security council table where you normally see ambassadors instead you're going to see presidents prime ministers and foreign ministers a meeting that is going to be chaired by president trump technically it's on nonproliferation and international peace and security but the president has already

made it clear on twitter that he wants to talk about iran iran will be cool as you say what other issues are going to be tackled at the u.n. general assembly. well all the problems of the world really as ever at this general assembly because leaders of all u.n. member states arrive here some already here president trump we understandably are arriving in the next few minutes in new york is coming from his golf course in new jersey and will be staying at we believe in trump tower but a lot of other issues which some diplomats tell me they are somewhat concerned that the fact that president trump somewhat sucks the oxygen out of this week because of his unpredictable behavior and the fact that he dominates all the headlines because they will be trying to deal with other pressing issues like syria like yemen like conflicts in africa mali central african republic south sudan democratic republic

of the congo issues about climate change migration it is an opportunity when all these leaders are in town to try and deal with many of the world's problems in meetings that will be held in the open but also many meetings that take place behind closed doors just between two leaders discussing various issues for example what we've just seen in the mall deaves we didn't think we were going to have to watch closely the speech by the person who's representing the moldy we do now. trump does have a habit of eclipsing those around him doesn't it should be an interesting week thank you very much our diplomatic editor james bass now in other developments the last british airways flight has taken off from teheran as the carrier suspends flights to iran air france caroline is also stopping flights to iran saying the service is currently not commercially viable but the decision does for any us pulling out of the nuclear deal in may and re-imposing heavy sanctions german

airline left dancer and a number of non european airlines will keep flying to attack iran. meanwhile opac an oil producer russia have concluded a meeting in algiers by pledging to continue producing less oil to boost prices the move defies a call by u.s. president trump for the oil bloc to end their reduced output the price of brant crude oil reached eighty dollars a barrel this month the rallies in part due to the sanctions the u.s. has imposed on iran which has cut its oil production much more still ahead for you on this news hour from london last week she was waiting for treatment now three year olds i.e. five has lost her battle against hunger in yemen where three quarters of the population is in need of aid. india's prime minister launches now. modi cap to get free health insurance the country's poorest. champions are off to their worst start in the league to twenty years we'll have the details in sport.

russia's defense ministry is again blamed israel for the downing of a russian jet off the coast of syria on monday saying israeli air traffic controllers deliberately misled its pilots fifteen crew were killed when the reconnaissance plane was shot down by syrian air defenses russia says israel gave incorrect information about as strikes it was conducting in the area that meant syria's anti aircraft fire was directed at the russian plane and not israel's jets to. give information we have presented. to pilots led to the deaths of fifteen russian military personnel. lack of professionalism or at least a criminal negligence therefore we consider that the responsibility for the disaster of the russian aircraft is entirely only a force and those who have decided to carry out these activities. to developments

in yemen now where a resurgence of fighting around the port city of data is was singing the country's humanitarian crisis the u.n. estimates that twenty two million yemenis need humanitarian assistance that's three quarters of the population will and eight million are severely food insecure they don't know where the next meal is coming from and rely on food aid to survive and the u.n. says of the ten million also food and secure but are not being reached by aid operations recent collapse in the yemeni ryall has made food imports more expensive making the situation even worse and war and hunger have left two million yemenis internally displaced and almost two hundred thousand have left for neighboring countries al-jazeera is under simmons's an old book refugee camp across the red sea in djibouti when two thousand yemenis a struggling to survive. they're hungry like millions of fellow yemenis they've left behind these men have just arrived in old book huddled together in some shade

having being smuggled out of yemen for two hundred dollars each. it was a life and it's a war we don't want to be part of says this man explaining that he and the others fear they'd be conscripted to join who three rebel forces. this is where they'll end up with families who may have refuge but little else this man has fresh drinking water but can't afford to buy food so his family has to get by soley on emergency aid learn and get lots all are less but there was a lot that we don't receive anything but enough to survive from the u.n. we don't have the instruction needed for our children the elderly even us it's a grim existence here in the sweltering heat of such a dry arid an infertile place the natural focus though of aid agencies is across the water in yemen where by the day the situation for the people is getting

more and more critical. in remote yemeni village they continue to pick leaves from trees is their only means of survival these two brothers know that cooking and eating the leaves will lead to sickness but it provides more mail a day for their extended family and it's a choice between malnutrition or eating leaves. you alone are not enough of the children are suffering from constant diarrhea translates and fever we don't know how and where we can treat them we get no help no one there is no relief organization in our area when we go asking for help we get nothing. some of the children and babies from the village of as lyman had to province have ended up here in this medical clinic. you can see what aid agencies warn is a crisis for the young weak and hungry that's growing bigger. yeah

the war in the famine has caused a spike in the number of those who eat the vine leaves which is leading to an increase of malnutrition cases the vine leaves a highly acidic substance that reduces absorption in the intestines and the stomach this is a very dangerous condition. less than a week ago when i was a reporter on the clinics work this little girl. was waiting for treatment she has since died. the medical staff fighting against one of the consequences of. the losses are higher now than ever before we're hearing that in recent months the number of deaths of children in her job province alone amounts to twenty and so the position for aid agencies is getting incredibly difficult accessing these remote villages where people are literally starving and also accessing areas that are blocked off because of the fighting it is an impossible situation. and they admit

that they are not winning the battle against hunger how different it could be if people could reach camps like this across the water from yemen in small boats is just an hour's ride but that's controlled by smugglers so the situation isn't just desperate for those in yemen as a whole it's also desperate here because some of these people want to go home they don't want to be here in the first place they want to go home the chances of that are pretty remote spain's maritime rescue service says it's rescued more than four hundred people from more than a dozen small soffit southern coast in while the registration of the aquarius to get any private rescue ship operating in the central mediterranean has been revoked by panama and follows a complaint by eating at the ship's captain and to find instructions to return rescued migrants to libya. with dozens of migrants on board including children and pregnant women. here the possibility of another u.k. referendum breck's it is rising off to the leader of the opposition labor party

said he would back on if it's what his party members want jeremy corbyn has come under intense pressure to support a new national vote o'brien reports now from the labor party conference in liverpool. brix it has been allocated a time slot of just two and a half hours of labour's annual conference but it's dominating all the other issues here in interviews labor leader jeremy corbyn continues to stress his preference for a good deal with europe not necessarily with the u.k. still inside the e.u. but if his general election were in office we would go straight to the negotiating table because we want to protect jobs and industries in this country we want to ensure there is a good effective trade relationship with europe in the future. i i will than five thousand pro e.u. demonstrators marched through liverpool on sunday calling for a people's vote in other words a second bricks and referendum on whatever deal emerges from the ongoing u.k.p.

unico see asians and they want the option of stopping breck's it altogether once we know what the deal is a box on offer i think people are entitled to have a say as to whether they have accepted it and i think that entitled to have on the ballot paper the option of remaining in need you we need to have a say on. it actually i mean because there is no deal and the deal is it's just a complete asshole it's so bad for this country. fresh from love a breakfast referendum a so-called people's vote is clearly growing but the dilemma for the labor party conference here in liverpool is to decide whether the wishes of its membership tally with the wider wishes of labor supporters across the country and indeed whether the country as a whole would regard another one who run them as a great betrayal of. those concerned seemed evident by the random sample of people we spoke to away from the march who showed little affection for the view and no

enthusiasm a toll for a new vote they had their vote. why spend your money on a set to be almost i don't think it votes we've got it at a democrat party but what we did it should surely show. don't say it's. not the one. same thing just going to get you had sound making agreements you just don't. promising to abide by the wishes of his party members is to call been stopped significantly short of personally supporting the second referendum he wants to keep his options open prison on this possible brennan al-jazeera little pool. well to political developments in the u.s. now a lawyer for the woman who's accused supreme court nominee brett kavanaugh of sexual assault says and agreement's been reached to testify in an open hearing on thursday they say christine bloody for want senators to head directly from her about the attack which she alleges took place at a high school party in the one nine hundred eighty s.
