province and suffering in silence the less obvious cause for palestinians trying to fight against israeli occupation. thank you for joining us donald trump has for the first time voiced concern about the fate of saudi journalist. the washington post has obtained what it says is the last known photo of the u.s. resident entering the saudi consulate in istanbul a week ago he has verified it to investigators believe a journalist was murdered in the consulate the saudis deny any link to his disappearance. hinted his concerns before he vanished she was interviewed by the b.b.c. in london three days before he went to the saudi consulate. when i hear of an of a list of a friend who did. nothing worth to be

a twisted make me feel i should of gone i'm talking that friend of mine who were who was arrested all of even talking maybe he was talking. critically over something and that in that in a dinner party right that's what we want to be what we are becoming in saudi arabia right when i used to that recently a saudi color minister an economist who was close to the royal court got that listed and that's good many people because here we are talking about somebody was going off of the government right right i don't even want to use the term this is a decision at this int he said and here we are then this isn't i mean the people who are out of this and even being dissidents right they just have an independent mind right and you know i don't call myself an opposition right i always say i am just write that i want a free environment to write and speak my mind. the u.s. secretary of state is asking saudi arabia to support a thorough investigation into the outspoken journalists if the parents cable ends

on the reports from washington submitted because i don't want saudi journalist jamal khashoggi has been missing for a week and for the first time u.s. president donald trump has addressed it and he's not happy i am concerned about it i don't like hearing about it and hopefully that will sort itself out right now nobody knows anything about it but there's a pretty bad stories going around i do not like that the u.s. government has mostly remained silent on reports saudi arabia might have murdered. saudi arabia denies any involvement late monday vice president mike pence tweeted deeply troubled to hear reports about saudi arabian journalist jamal khashoggi if true this is a tragic day by incidents journalists across the globe is a threat to freedom of the press and human rights the free world deserves answers the outspoken journalist was a u.s. resident and well known in the halls of power here in washington from his big

platform as a columnist at the washington post where his writing was often very critical of saudi arabia's government particularly crown prince mohammed bin solomon to show his disappearance now as many people in this city demanding answers i think it's very disturbing. it's very unnerving we just need to get clear facts from both governments senator lindsey graham tweeted we agree if there was any truth to the allegations of wrongdoing by the saudi government it would be devastating to the u.s. saudi relationship and there will be a heavy price to pay economically and otherwise it means that there's going to be reexamined ation of the relationship of aid by the military by the united states on military sales to the saudi government and there's going to be once again a distance between the united states and that government it's now clear washington has joined. the chorus of calls to saudi arabia for answers on the growing

international scandal his disappearance gave rosendo washington and the un's human rights office has just released a statement saying it has serious concerns about the apparent enforces appearance. in a stumble at the united nations are also raising concern for other journalists who are coming under attack we're very concerned about a number of recent cases of reports cases and reports of violence against journalists. including the murder of victoria marie nova in bulgaria the disrepute of disappearance of jamal is so both publicly and privately the secretary general has often raised this issue with member states the secretary general's position is clear a free press is essential for peace justice and human rights for all he reiterated his call at all governments to strengthen press freedom including ensuring that

there is justice in me countability for crimes committed against journalists let's get the latest from jamaat a child who is live for us any stumble jamal let's start with the latest developments in this last image that the washington post says was of. a crush entering the saudi consulate in istanbul last tuesday why has it taken so long to see this photo. well the initial response from the turkish government became apparent that jamal khashoggi was missing forcibly missing go forcibly disappeared was to try and use diplomatic avenues to try and either secure his safety and release or at least information as to his whereabouts now that they have exhausted all of that it seems that the turks have decided to essentially force the hand of the saudis by releasing initially this still image of official g. entering the consulate building its entry what it does is show is the onus is now

firmly on the saudis to prove we as turkey as the governments have shown that years and said you must now show that he has existed and this came just a couple hours after president obama had spoken at a conference a press conference in hungary where he's currently on a state visit there and he said. this similar things that it was up to the saudis to prove what's happened to the children not the targets because ultimately the last time he was seen was answering a saudi territory i.e. the consulate building in istanbul. the u.n. human rights office has just issued a statement says it has serious concerns be apparent in four states and parents we've heard concern from the administration as well concern from other western governments reacting finally after a week after tomorrow how shoji first went missing inside the saudi consulate any stamboul how might this reaction and the pressure from the international community

impact the investigation what difference could it make. well i mean the pressure definitely is ramping up on the saudis because after many days of almost deafening silence from the international community suddenly i had within the space of twenty four hours very significant and strong statements being made from the united states to germany to the united kingdom as well as other countries as well as obviously that statement from the united nations well that's expected to do at least two maybe for the pressure on the saudis to find a way out of this the problem is when it's cases of espionage fall in this has been the case whenever there's been things like this anywhere around the world it's very difficult to get to the whole truth and nothing but the truth because obviously a lot of it is also politicized but what i do understand what we're hearing now actually recently in the in the in the past few hours is that the targets are becoming

a bit more forthcoming in trying to give some of the information that they had so. there was there was talk of if you remember the first information we had a few days ago was these fifteen saudis who landed in. istanbul went to the consulate and then left we understand now that the charges of this closed that they had booked a certain hotels they devastate at those hotels for the time period they've been tracking some of the consulates vehicles where those vehicles have gone and. using the traffic cameras obviously all of that still doesn't give you the conclusive evidence that he was killed as is the understanding in the conclusion reached by the police here however it is slowly put it painting a picture of at the very least a very clear pre-determined premeditated. act of espionage targeting an independent writer in a foreign land and not on its own is enough to create some sort of diplomatic rift between saudi and turkey is what the saudi and international community thank you

very much for that you might as shy lifeforce any sample with the latest there again the u.n. human. i saw office voicing serious concern at the apparent enforced disappearance of saudi journalist. who vanished after he went into the saudi consulate in istanbul a week ago exactly the u.n. human rights office calling on turkey and saudi arabia to carry out a prompt investigation into the disappearance and possible murder of jamal. moving on to other news in an investigative website has revealed more details about the second suspects behind the poisoning of russian double agents in the u.k. belling cads says russian military dr alexander miche can travel to solves very using a different name it says michigan is employed by russia's intelligence agency the u.k. accuses him and a man identified by the website as a natalee chip leader of trying to kill script and his daughter with a nerve agent in march.

brazil's presidential candidate says he won't be toning down his rhetoric ahead of the second round of voting he could become the next leader of latin america's largest nation after easily winning the first round of voting on sunday to reassemble has more from sao paulo. there's lots of mixed feelings in brazil after sunday's elections on one hand there is those who are afraid about what could happen in this country if a person. makes it to power they're afraid that human rights abuses by security forces will increase towards one out of us said in the past that a good criminal is a dead criminal or is so afraid about the possibility of persecution of minorities of political persecution but then there are those and there are many of those who believe that. they will do anything in order to prevent the workers' party makes it to power again and they say that they will vote for boys for not oh you know way

too many of those you talk to they're saying that they are voting for the worst the least worst candidate but it was has responded positively has been this country's economy the stock exchange has been on the rise the brazilian area is has been soaring a ball tonight who has said that if he's makes it to the presidency he will prioritize state owned companies reduce the presence of the state in the economy and it seems that markets seem to like that from now on is going to be the campaign ahead the strategy for now is not the law that says that he's visited a former president in the other field by in prison told him to take to the streets to talk to people to tell them what's at stake in this country he says that it's brazilian democracy that's at stake and he wants to create an anti-fascist bloc with other center left candidate on the other hand if you eat also now who said that he's not going to change his campaign strategy that he will continue to attack

the workers. party because he blames them for the economic crisis that has happened in this country and for the worst corruption scandals that have happened in this country's history to the head on al jazeera mind your language how decades of separation between the careers has affected their shared alphabet. hello there there's quite a few showers over the southeastern parts of asia at the moment but in the eastern parts of i'm up there's actually a good deal of dry weather to be found to say for the philippines just one or two showers raining in plenty of sunshine around it's wet it's awards the west for some of us in the west impose a borneo and stretching its way towards kuala lumpur and singapore we've seen plenty of rain and then we will still to come as we head through wednesday and into thursday those areas of rain will be pushing

they need to be joined that is for. nigeria is. legit is your development my major cities this is my nigeria. in my mind on al-jazeera. a recap of our top stories on the u.n. human rights office has expressed concern over the disappearance of saudi journey jamal khashoggi this is the washington post has obtained what it says is the last

known photo of the journalist entering the saudi consummated me stumble one week ago the u.n. has called on turkey and sanji arabia to investigate and make the findings speak meanwhile u.s. president donald trump for the first time voiced concern about the fate of. who is also a u.s. president his secretary of state mike on bail is calling on supporting thorough investigation into the journalist's disappearance and brazil's far right candidate is promising to overhaul latin america's largest nation opted meeting in the first round of the presidential election. to combat corruption and privatized a company's if he wins the top office in the second round later this month. now a deal between russia and turkey to prevent a syrian government offensive in the last rebel held province is moving forward armed groups have pulled out heavy weapons from the front line in need creating a twenty kilometer de-militarized zone this was a condition to avoid an assault on the province which is home to three million

people as in a harder reports. the turkish army has reinforced its observation posts all around province which borders turkey and send additional troops to patrol a planned demilitarized zone to separate government forces from opposition fighters the demilitarized zone is being established after a deal between russia and turkey it's aimed at preventing a possible syrian government offensive against adlib the last remaining rebel controlled province in syria turkey's task is to free the zone from heavy weapons and so-called radical groups the state news agency says the syrian opposition and other anti-government groups have completed the first phase of the withdrawal. i. was. there is so sure. and the day was. probably

a. very. turkey's president. says turkish intelligence agents an adlib are playing a major role rebel factions allied to turkey hold a third of the twenty kilometer deep buffer zone but the rest is controlled by what the international community labels radical terrorist organizations because of their links to al qaida among those groups is how a sham it controls the majority of the province and the planned zone and it has not officially declared whether it will withdraw its weapons and fighters by october the fifteenth regardless russia seems satisfied president vladimir putin said turkey is treating the agreement seriously and fulfilling its commitments but moscow is accusing the so-called radical groups of trying to create provocations to torpedo the deal. october ten and fifteen are deadlines for the deals implementation russia's president vladimir putin is already calling the zone

effective ruling out the military action near future. doesn't want an armed confrontation with turkey that's why it's afraid to publish the reject the deal it's still trying to reach a peaceful solution turkey wants to prevent armed conflict but it's challenge is to implement the deal but tension is growing between higher to hit a sham and turkey backed rebels there could be more incidents of armed confrontations if the so-called radical groups refused to cooperate turkey has signaled readiness to use force against those who don't comply seven hundred. and al qaeda commander accused of planning attacks in egypt is under arrest in neighboring libya he. faces a possible death sentence if convicted it was seized by choice the oil toward honey for have to are during a raid in the city of derna in libya after ourselves declared libyan national army is banned by egypt's now the number of severely malnourished children in

afghanistan is on the rise aid groups warn it could reach two million countries are sending intrude but that's just half the battle won often on groups like the taliban prevented from being delivered to those who need it tony berkley has this report from herat in afghanistan. up son is seven months old she weighed less than seven kilograms when she entered this camp almost half the weight would a child her age should be. she is one of a growing number of severely malnourished children who are suffering from lack of food and one hygienic living conditions they have fled to camps like these in herat their families are too poor and helpless to survive without outside help. her family traveled three hundred fifty kilometers to herat to escape hunger and conflict it's an all too familiar story in afghanistan more than forty percent of children under the age of five have stunted growth through lack of food and poor nutrition and ten percent are wasting away to skin and bones it leaves them prone

to illness and disease and sometimes an early death by the end of this year it is estimated that around two million children could suffer from severe malnutrition. the u.s. is the largest food donor here this year it has donated nearly seventy million dollars to support food and nutrition programs but the food lifeline can easily be cut afghanistan always needs more food but the question is how to get it through to the people who really need it the volatile security situation means that one group or another has to give agreement with those supplies to get through is not always easy the terrain is difficult often crisscrossing territory controlled by armed factions food and medical convoys are dependent on the permission from these groups no security means no food deliveries more and. we had to leave our area because there was no food coming stopped it i don't know why instances of convoys being

stopped have reduced in the last few years but they still happen that access is essential for mobile or medical teams to help needy civilians aid workers have been attacked and killed in the past and they too need protection from police down yet it has taken an economic and we can't go everywhere because areas are too brisk and then we can't help children. is uncertain if stopping aid is a deliberate policy of armed groups or it's an inevitable consequence of this long running conflict. my call to all the policies of the conflict is give people a break they've really had enough this has been going on for nearly forty years for different reasons but you know there are a lot of people here who know nothing but war. for peace and they deserve that unless bizarrely duction in the conflict and improvement in terms of livelihoods to all communities. affected too.

have been learning that while north korea has been holding on to more traditional words the south has been adopting more loanwords from other languages for example this in the south is called though not. but in the north it's. quite literally finger ring road and when you take a shower in the morning you use what translates as pair water served over in the south will simply stand. with people from the north on the south already not understanding up to a third of every day words the others are using academics have been working on a common dictionary as a possible solution to language difficulties were glued to see at the recent reunions of families separated by the war and trying to communicate again after decades apart consider the prospect of reunification and you can take that problem
