the world. order to shoot looters as survivors from friday's earthquake and tsunami desperately search for food aid is slowly arriving on the island of soloway zee where hundreds of thousands of people have gone hungry for days aid workers are calling for more body bags to be sent to the worst affected areas more than fourteen hundred people are now confirmed dead with rescuers expecting the death toll to rise well andrew thomas joins us live now from city it's been six days now since the earthquake what's the situation like now. it's still very very bad there and this is still a city completely wrecked by that ship that was pushed to shore by the tsunami hit . more because that is
5:02 am
a symbol of the city than anything else it's been left exactly as it was on friday afternoon there's a little bit of yellow tape you can probably hardly say it in a screen that's been put around that ship as if so mark the fact that something needs to be done where there's a some point but nothing has actually been done and that is true of that of roads of everything around city now we've got a death toll now of more than fourteen hundred many people think that's of course going to go up more than seventy thousand people officially despite still though we believe having seen dreams of traffic leaving this city that tens of thousands probably much higher number than that seventy thousand have evacuated from here and tens of thousands so you have been taken out by military flights a lot of people are leaving. the security situation that you may. not disastrous but it is bad way just to drive to hear the twenty minutes from where we're staying went through an area that was being under siege in terms of looting there was a big warehouse by the side of the road that he damaged in the earthquake all the
5:03 am
tsunami i'm not sure which and there were strings of people carrying boxes trolling out of that with nobody stopping them and so now we stopped. back from there to get a few shots of bill but also the hope one of the people that if we needed to we could get away fast because some media very severe thank you and they. said i don't consider themselves as looters robbers they would never do this sort of thing under normal circumstances but they're desperate and they need whatever they can get because i is not getting through to them and they didn't just have to do motor has to be said they were taking things like nappies and plastic containers and i said what i going to do with her if i sell them because money doesn't suddenly lose its value in a disaster like this i can sell those things to people who do have babies you do need the containers and then combined with that. foreign aid supposed to. indonesia has said it will take foreign aid from nineteen of twenty seven countries that have offered it president. spoke to president trump on
5:04 am
wednesday in the u.s. that it was offering support one of al-jazeera cruise llewyn with a team from france on wednesday australia says the medical doctors are on their way given just i'm afraid a half million u.s. dollars in aid to indonesia to deal with disaster but it does need dealing with and it's a long way from that yet very minor repairs are underway there is some electricity that has been restored right to the same. and. in some places quite good in parts of poly now that's significant and important for people to be out to communicate but this is still a pretty desperate situation and just briefly so what can we expect now in terms of rescue and recovery operations at this point. quite honestly down i think the rescue is over that hasn't been a living person found since sunday and they are recovering bodies all the time still that's what we're going to be saying a recovery operation of bodies that were expected to go up you'll see in my report
5:05 am
in a moment that when we that they are looking for bodies it's a big operation because they can only work extremely slowly we visited a housing estate that have been completely submerged when the ground underneath that housing estate turned into. here's my report now i'm at. the mosques in part to highlight the smell the white tulle pool in is because liquid is dripping through the orange ones from the both sides there's not much dignity in this but in pali right now the reason a lot of neat for the road. between fifty and seventy guests who were inside when. one of hollywood's biggest shopping centers has been destroyed. elsewhere building damage is less obvious but the reality is worse with individual buildings it's easy to see the destruction from ground level but this wasn't one building it was in
5:06 am
a state of seventeen hundred homes and to appreciate what happened here you really need to see it from the air during the earthquake the pressures on the ground grew to such an extent that the soil liquefied collapsing everything in on itself hundreds of people i thought to still be buried here. by wednesday afternoon a search team had dug into an area of just four hundred square meters and had already found twenty five bodies there a square kilometers to go among those buried almost certainly is ricardi suffer rutins mother he's found the house she was in it was among those carried hundreds of meters by the way you have not but she has vanished. gone missing in looking at all this i know really it's impossible that she's alive but i can't quite bring myself to give up hope. in the ages head of search and rescue operations visited the site on wednesday he saw for himself
5:07 am
a child on the sticking out of the debris but says there isn't yet the right equipment to bring her body out summer scout we are using all their resources but we are very spread out and we can't just focus here. repairs are being made and aid is coming in but is not yet a functioning city in places some people a digging through the debris in search of food fight now fuel is coming in far more a simply getting out. it doesn't take an expert to see where or rather smell where those bodies are there not everywhere in many parts of the city you don't get that function number right here you do until i was again talking to you daryn i was wearing a spice not really needed right along. coastal road so one can imagine that there are bodies buried under some of this rubble possibly under that the closer you get that boat the stronger the smell get out. of leaving the city evacuation really is the priority because the aid that's coming in while it is
5:08 am
sitting at the airport and slowly being distributed to the city there's nowhere near enough of it yet to reach everybody in need. all right to under thomas there in front of city in the under thank you. now the u.s. is pulling out of a sixteen year old treaty with iran after the un's top court ordered washington to ease sanctions tehran hailed a decision by the international court of justice as a victory but the u.s. says the tribunals has no jurisdiction in the matter zain bazarov the reports from the iranian capital. in the case of iran versus united states of america the fifteen member bench of the international court of justice ordered the american government to make sure that sanctions against iran do not impact humanitarian aid or civil aviation and the united states of america in accordance with its obligation is under the nine hundred fifty five treaty of amity economic relations and conceal a lot of right is shall removed by means of it choosing any impediment is
5:09 am
arising from the measure this announcement on eight may twenty eighth in to the free exportation to the territory of the islamic republic of iran of medicine is and medical devices food stuff is going to cultural commodities despair parties equipment and associated services including one t.v. maintenance repair services and inspection is necessary for the safety of aviation iran argued that sanctions reimposed after u.s. president donald trump pulled out of the twenty fifty nuclear deal in may violate a little known french agreement that predates the one nine hundred seventy nine islamic revolution the court agreed but didn't call for the complete lifting of sanctions falling short of the resulting decision that iran would have wanted judges did ask the us not to interfere with banking transactions related to food
5:10 am
medicine and air safety. but even as the judge read the ruling its practical application remains a question mark and any history made here by the i.c.j. judges is likely to be symbolic at best both. refrain from any action which might be a good heavy or extend the dispute before the court or make it more difficult to order saw with no policing mechanism to enforce its decision in practical terms the court's judgment is more recommendation than ruling iran has been arguing that the approach by americans to war to iran has been illegitimate as well as unlawful by taking the case to the core against the united states i think what you want wants to say that that is the americans who have left the negotiating table that is the americans who are not observing the international law that is the americans who
5:11 am
have been ignoring the arisen lucian by the united nations security council on monday iran and america will face each other in court again for public hearings over two billion dollars in iranian assets frozen in two thousand and sixteen the latest world court ruling may seem like a hollow victory to many in iran struggling under the punishing strain of american sanctions but it does help illustrate a point that leaders into iran are keen to make as often as possible given the chance they say america under donald trump does not respect international institutions zain. jordan has more on this from washington d.c. . after the international court of justice said that the united states should deliver humanitarian aid and material to the iranian people the united states is reaction is this it's going to walk away from a treaty that gave the iranians the authority they believed to go to the international court of justice in the first place with their complaint about
5:12 am
american sanctions this is john bolton the national security adviser for president donald trump iran is a rogue regime if it has been a threat throughout the middle east not only for its nuclear weapons and ballistic missile programs but it's acted for decades is the central banker of international terrorism and it's hostile and aggressive military behavior in the region today is a breach of international peace and security so i don't take what they say seriously at all the u.s. has decision to basically say that it's going to ignore the ruling from the i.c.j. is just part of its larger campaign to isolate iran it's already reimpose some sanctions that had been lifted after iran signed the nuclear deal with the previous administration the obama administration a couple of years ago the u.s. is now also trying to convince other countries to stop buying iranian oil and crease economic pressure on that government to come to the table and negotiate
5:13 am
a new nuclear weapons deal that's something which other countries have been loath to consider and in light of this latest ruling from the i.c.j. it's not clear that the u.s. is going to be able to make the case that their countries should stop buying iranian oil but it also doesn't mean that they're actually going to continue doing so either well former u.s. deputy assistant secretary of state joe ruben would come pushing the iran nuclear deal through congress he says the white house continues to isolate the u.s. from its international partners. this builds on the speech of the president gave at the u.n. general assembly speaking about sovereignty and he spoke about that very passionate passionately but the downside of that is that when we need our allies like in the case of u.s. policy towards iran where we need to have tough sanctions on iran for negotiations detention related to nuclear issues and to counter their terrorism support in the
5:14 am
region we're going to need allies and they may not be there for us as we need because we are withdrawing from these multilateral flora these are international institutions that the united states was present for the creation of in fact the united nations was founded in san francisco california in one nine hundred forty five we we take ownership of the ideas in many respects of these institutions or kit which have strengthen american security and the american economy and international human rights so when we withdraw we weaken these institutions that much of the world looks to for rules of the road and for how to engage in difficult issues and to look for some kind of fair arbiter for their disputes and we need to have that strength and we can't run the world unilaterally we need international organizations to support these types of difficult issues and withdrawing by the us does weaken those institutions. most of the come on the news hour including. i'm in
5:15 am
northeastern brazil the poorest part of this enormous country and coming up i'll explain why the hopes and needs of these people could determine the outcome of sunday's presidential elections. and increasing concerns over the safety of a prominent saudi arabian journalist who's a critic of the government. and in support trick for neymar as part of claim their first champions league win of the season that's all still to come. now malaysia's former first lady eros a man saw has been charged with seventeen counts including money laundering was arrested on wednesday after being questioned by the anti corruption commission husband former prime minister najib razak is due to face trial next year for money laundering and abuse of power more than a billion dollars is said to have gone missing from a state fund well let's get more on this now and talk to professor james ginn is the director of the asia institute at the university of tasmania and joins us live
5:16 am
from hobart professor chin how significant are these charges against russia and what does it tell us about the one m d b scandal well i think these charges are highly if this is the first time the wife. i mean the malaysia charge. so she's been charged with some of the charges relating to the one and the money my understanding is that you know. only let us dollars used to receive them back. and how will ordinary malaysians be viewing this case i mean she was very unpopular wasn't she perceived as greedy and power hungry yes i think she has a very. he aren't dumbs the relation up listen a lot of people do not like her because there were many reports of. lavishly
5:17 am
overseas and there were also reports that she was there with the hospital. there were many reports that you are in the face of the political. decisions of how. and politically is this a good thing for prime minister mahathir mohamad i mean he promised didn't he before the election that he would come down on corruption and jail najib yes this movie is actually a very low on the asian population it's also widely. it made it very clear before the elections that you were trying to not get any on that one and it's all really people who spend. any slack to go to jail are these i'm so who else is mahathir and the anti corruption agency likely to go after next then well the big story of course is that they're trying very hard hold that mass m i am one thing to be fair
5:18 am
and this is a character man and then you'll all last suggest they say i think in china so i guess you get hold of i think what are. you but in terms of the people surrounding not your server other was of benefit of one and one and you money from. the east that sun we thought it received some funny one in. just a final thought from a professor in terms of the broader picture is rosmah or not she would like to be charged the malays at without the involvement of international jurisdictions. well there are several countries around the. rest. so for example i know the americans of every. or east it's generally the war is wrong well but i think. that trust. are for the simple reason that so many times there are either legal or
5:19 am
professor james chin thank you very much for your time sir thank you very much now a british intelligence agency is accusing russia of launching cyber warfare to undermine western democracy the u.k.'s national cybersecurity center blamed hackers working for the g.r.u. intelligence agency of a major attacks including the world anti-doping agency hack in twenty seventeen and is the first time u.k. intelligence services claimed russia was behind the twenty sixth in breach of the us democratic national committee's computer systems allegedly to help them trump win the presidential election well the u.k. says g.r.u. operatives were acting directly under orders from the kremlin to sow discord and mistrust and governments around the world were jodi westies chief executive of global cyber risk and she says u.k. intelligence agencies would have collected strong evidence against russia before making the allegations. i think there's some new information it's it's really wonderful that the. british military or the british government would come out and
5:20 am
name the russian military intelligence as being behind some of these attacks we've suspected russia has always had a lot of cyber criminal activity in the country and the russian government would always go all we know nothing about it no no this has nothing to do with the government but now that there are direct linkage is being made by the intelligence community and certainly the u.s. and u.k. jointly came out and blamed russia for the not pet virus and in two thousand and seventeen which crippled ukraine and it really spread to a number of other countries around the world and caused a vast amount of private sector business interruption losses so now that we're actually getting a pinpoint down to saying this is a nation state activity i think that's very important they would determining that the russian military intelligence with the knowledge and consent of the kremlin was
5:21 am
involved with the world doping with some u.k. banks attacks with attacks on ukrainian infrastructure and the hacking of the democratic national committee so these were new blames that were relayed being laid at the at the feet of the russian government and if they i'm certain had quite credible information before they came out with this. the white house has fired a warning shot at republicans distancing themselves from the president embrace donald trump or go home a memo lays out trump's campaign strategy for the weeks before the november sixth midterms it says republicans should quote boldly align themselves with policies if they want victory or douglas alone joins us live now from washington d.c. he's a democratic strategist and senior principle consultant at national capital strategy group douglas what do you make of this memo from the white house edging house republicans. why they sent this out and is being seen as a threat perhaps well i don't know if you would consider this is
5:22 am
a threat president trump's approval ratings the disapproval ratings are at all time highs believe just earlier this week it was a fifty three percent approval rating versus a forty two percent disapproval rating and just two weeks goes as high as fifty six disapproval and thirty eight approval rating so the strategy for republican candidates to hitch their way games to this train doesn't seem to brood and then seems to fly in the face of reason so sounds to me like a great opportunity for the democrats of this is what the republicans are pushing yeah it's an interesting point you make douglas i mean how much of a political gamble is this for republicans ahead of the midterms and could this backfire on trump. it is a huge gamble it is really one could say maybe the only play they have left in
5:23 am
their deck. everybody's everyone's polls is showing through z. as i'm for democratic voters and on the part of independents and republicans you're seeing disapproval towards trump so to kind of turn the tables in ask republican candidates to embrace president with such high disapproval ratings is bold but also a bit foolhardy so it again it could be a boon for the democrats and it very well could and i it spec'd will backfire on trump as you say this on this may first of all you yeah i'm going to say as you say that's obviously a difficulty that many people have in embracing such a polarizing president but hard core republicans douglas will vote for trump anyway when they. well actually those are generally trump supporters there are people out there that are there are going to vote and support trump no
5:24 am
matter what the problem is those hardcore trump supporters been shown not to be supportive of other republican candidates. and there in lies the problem these people come out full throttle one hundred ten percent for trump but do not have that enthusiasm for other republican candidates and the history also shows us that the president the sitting president's party doing these midterm election often loses ground i think you have to go all the way back to f.d.r. where you have the example of i think in one thousand thirty four he won nine seats in the house and nine seats in the senate other than that you just have bill clinton who was able to have zero losses in the senate won five seats in the house and then of course george bush won believe in the house in two seats in the senate but that was right after nine eleven so that was an anomaly in that regard let me get a final thought from you as we start the countdown to the midterms what do you have
5:25 am
predictions i mean are the democrats to take the house and the senate and is this blue wave really going to happen that you talk about. i am fully confident that this blue wave will happen because we have the gift that keeps on giving we have donald trump in the white house and whether it's him choosing a very controversial supreme court nominee that is now making new zor the recent revelations about tax fraud doing the sixty's seventy's and eighty's on his part regarding the money that he got from his father or him making of the meat to move it and doctor for doing a recent campaign rally all of these continue to contribute to those high disapproval ratings which is of course a great thing for the democrats in the midterm elections in two thousand and eighteen douglas thank you very much indeed for talking to al jazeera yemen's who the rebels of freed two sons of former late president ali abdullah saleh this could
5:26 am
signal a desire to break the deadlock in the three year long war the brothers arrived in jordan off to oman and the u.n. envoy to yemen motm griffiths negotiated their release had been detained since december when the rebels killed their father the head of the united nations group of experts on yemen says his team has presented a list of human rights abuses to the united nations john dooby also told on physio that both saudi arabia and the u.a.e. tried to interfere in his work the panel accused all sides in the conflict of rights abuses in a report published in august. i did not expect such harsh reactions we've done a professional neutral and objective job all we did was report based on allegations and actions we collected. from testimonies and reports it's a normal process for any experts we can always discuss the results but this did not happen. here in al-jazeera when we come back rejected by australia refugees.

5:31 am
center a brain moscow for a major attacks including the twenty sixteen u.s. presidential election on the world anti-doping agency in twenty seventeen the concern is growing over the safety of the prominent saudi journalist jamal khashoggi who's missing in turkey has been a vocal critic of the kingdom's leadership seen it took us officials believe he's inside the saudi consulate in istanbul as a as more. on tuesday jamal khashoggi walked into this saudi consulate in istanbul to collect proof of his divorce so he could remarry he hasn't been seen since but if you know not in the hope he does in the one we are positive he is still inside and we are waiting with his fiance who is with us here we are staging a sit in here until he is released. once an advisor to the saudi royal family who showed he fell out of favor as he became increasingly vocal in his criticism of
5:32 am
crown prince mohammed bin selma i still see him as a reformer but he used gathering all power within his hand and it would be much beter for him to allow a bidding space for a critic for saudi intellectuals for all your active sort of the media to debate the most important needed transformation going in the country because jodi left saudi arabia last year as the government began its recent crackdown on dissent arresting clerics intellectuals activists and businessmen in the absence of any reliable information to show he's website now declares he's been arrested but saudi authorities insist he left their consulate but this is the most of all the contradiction in the saddam regime is claims that it is opening up that it is liberalizing we've seen a lot of talk a lot of statements from saudi officials heading in that direction but when you look at the actions of the government government we see something very different
5:33 am
the washington post says it's very concerned about the whereabouts of one of its prominent commentators in a statement the newspaper said it would be unfair and outrageous if he's been detained for his work and we hope that he's safe and we can hear from him soon jamal let me start with you talking to al-jazeera in march because shogi spoke of the changes in saudi arabia it is an important transformation that requires all of us to contribute to it to discuss it and no one should be jailed those waiting for him outside the saudi consulate in istanbul would agree. the u.s. senate will make its first procedural vote on president trump's supreme court nominee on friday but kevin his confirmation has been controversial due to allegations of sexual assault and misconduct charges he was alan fischer joins us live now from washington d.c. alan so what more can you tell us about the vote. ok let me tell you how this is all going to work it's a procedural motion that's been filed by mitch mcconnell who's the leader of the
5:34 am
republicans in the senate what does that mean well essentially what he's moved is a motion of cloture which says that the debate on brecht cavernous nomination will end and they will take a vote on that on friday and nothing happens on thursday but in friday they get a vote and it's a straight up and don't vote so with a majority of fifty one to forty nine the republicans can then move into what is the final stages of the kavanah nomination and then from that moment they'll have thirty hours to debate both republicans and democrats can put their cases forward and then thirty hours after that it doesn't have to be exactly thirty hours both sides can give up their time they will move to direct vote and so we could have a new supreme court justice by the end of the weekend do the republicans have the vote or what is going to be crucial of course is the f.b.i. report now we're told that that is going to be delivered on thursday morning and that point senators will of the chance to read it not for very long and not to
5:35 am
answer ask follow up questions but they'll get to see what the f.b.i. has this covered during its extended investigation into allegations that brett kavanaugh was guilty of sexual misconduct and then they move to a vote the republicans need five votes to be secure in the two democrats and three republicans and they haven't said which way they're going to vote you remember jeff flake one of the republicans who was a maybe is certainly upset about what's happened he was the one that pushed for the extended f.b.i. inquiry he was also one of the voices that criticized donald trump because you'll remember that at a rally in mississippi on wednesday he decided that no longer was he going to just sit on the sidelines in this and let the senate decide he was going to win with what many people considered very inflammatory language about the woman who is the allegations about a supreme court nominee. i was he's been respectful and disciplined when
5:36 am
talking about brett kavanaugh accuser christine blassie fort until he soaked in the atmosphere at a campaign rally in mississippi to the delight of the crowd president donald trump started talking about the woman who says she was sexually assaulted by the supreme court nominee how did you get home i don't remember how you get there i don't remember where is the place i don't remember how many years ago was and i don't know if i was but i had one beer that's the only thing i remember. the president needs republican senate votes to get his nominee over the line his comments seem to have made that job a little harder and there's there's no time and no place for remarks like that to discuss something with this sensitive at a political rally is just. just not right person by the president's comments for it she has really brought forth lawyers who sat by her side during her testimony last week described the president's comments as a vicious vile and so all this attack f.b.i.
5:37 am
agents are still pushing on with an investigation into allegations of sexual misconduct by brett kavanaugh the right wing appeal courts judge slated to fill the vacancy on the supreme court and an appointment which could swing the court's ideological makeup for decades to come. one of his biggest supporters republican lindsey graham was booed by the crowd when he offered his support to the judge and the president at an event in washington i don't like what the president said last night and the first person to say i want to hear from dr ford i thought she was handled respectfully i thought cam and i was treated like crap. yeah yourself and it's the first white house press briefing in almost a month the idea the president was marking a sexual assault victim was vigorously rejected he was stating facts that were given during dr ford's testimony and the senate has to make a decision based on those facts and whether or not they see judge kavanaugh to be qualified to hold the position on the supreme court the f.b.i.
5:38 am
report could be published at any time even though a number of potential witnesses say they've had no contact with agents the republican leadership see they will be pushing for a vote on brett kavanaugh by the end of the week alan fischer al-jazeera washington now u.s. judge has blocked an attempt by the trumpet ministration to end protection for three hundred thousand immigrants from four countries people from haiti so don nicaragua and el salvador have temporary protection status in the u.s. and that allows them to live and work there because their own countries are unsafe the california courts ruling says removing their protections would do irreparable harm and cause hardship the british prime minister has defended her brags that strategy and call for unity and upbeat to resume a told her audience at the conservative party's conference she's not afraid to leave the e.u. without a deal lawrence lee was there and sent us this report. all those people have spent their time queuing for the speech might have been forgiven for being
5:39 am
a little nervous this was a big moment for their party and their country and their prime minister often looks unsure a bit of a robot. so he was to everyone's surprise when sarees m a launched a cell phone to stage dancing queen the soundtrack all of it designed to offer her a charisma she's often accused of lacking plainly they loved it as well as being relieved last year she was paralyzed by a cough and the sec fell apart behind her doing all this at such an important time in the u.k. took some courage but in the last few years some sort some things changed for the worse i think she then embarks on a speech which painted her as a much softer figure trying to bring together a country at war with itself over leaving the european union but when push came to shove she indicated they would be no more concessions from in the endless negotiation with brussels britain isn't afraid to leave with no deal if we have to
5:40 am
thank the zing with thousands introducing terrorists and costly checks at the border would be a bad outcome for the u.k. and the e.u. it would be tough at first but the resilience and ingenuity of the british people would see us through the friends and her enemies in government will both of found something in all of what she said never mind that she made no mention of every financial warning that the u.k. economy could fold in the event of a hard rex's this was rhetoric from the trenches of world war one we stand at a pivotal moment in history it falls to our party to lead our country through it. when we come together there is no limit to what we can achieve. compared to the robot she is often painted as this was a confidence passionate and at times very personal speech which would have gone down
5:41 am
extremely well with the party faithful but i think of things like british ingenuity and black spirits will do nothing to persuade the european union that she has a new plan if anything what this speech did was to make a no deal rexy it's much more likely the other thing this will be seen to have done at least for now is to shore up her leadership as prime minister but both she and the european union sharpening their knives lawrence lee al jazeera burning him fairuz former president alberto fujimori has been taken to hospital just hours after a court canceled his pardon and ordered his arrest for three more he was pardoned by presidential decree last december due to poor health in serve less than half of the twenty five year jail term that in links to death squads and ordering two massacres of victims group appealed against his release refugees on the amount us island detention center had presented a petition to pop

a new guinea's top court they wanted to hand down a judgment from a twenty sixteen ruling that found the australian run center was unlawful the judgment could allow them to seek compensation and the chance to be resettled in other countries david manne is executive director of refugee legal he says justice is being denied the longer the refugees wait for judgment. one of the lawyers in the tyson company gave me a likely biased lawyer and has real concerns that the decision might already have been night and judgment not yet delivered it's very difficult to nominate kinds of proceedings precisely what is going on behind the scenes in terms of the the the making of the decision but i think what's very important here while we can speculate on whether this will be a successful what it does to underpin the very pointed and that is the days man some stages and refugees advance through such a terrible ordeal suffering and damage want justice and what they're calling for is
5:43 am
