point so there's a two headline top lines on what's going on in turkey the other big story of course nikki haley donald trump's u.s. ambassador to the united nations has attended her resignation it has been accepted . my colleague kemal with the news grit. thank you for that peter we live here in studio four to zero income all santa maria welcome to the news that breaking news the diplomatic shock at the united nations nikki haley u.s. ambassador to the u.n. has resigned she will leave her job at the end of the year president trump says she's done an incredible job why the departure that i would not speak to our correspondents in the u.s. shortly also on the grid the disappearance of jamal khashoggi turkey gets the go ahead to search the saudi consulate in istanbul which we now know definitively that thanks to these c.c.t.v. pictures that was a week ago now and in zimbabwe

a return to the bad old days all food shortages and queuing for fuel this time it's down to a new banking tax but zimbabweans have long memories when it comes to the hyperinflation would ruin the country a decade ago and google plus is shutting down off that social network explodes the past hundreds of thousands of users find out if that's the only reason and he wanted to show the hash tag. live on air and streaming online through you tube facebook live and at al-jazeera dot com what a busy day it's turned into that breaking news in the last hour nikki haley the u.s. ambassador to the u.n. has resigned and i believe donald trump we have a tight replay of what he said in the oval office for the first time there was a very small. drop of weather that looked like it was forming and now it's pretty

close to a category three if it's not already a category three so we're very well prepared femurs ready we're already. spoke with governor scott spoke to everybody that you have to speak to and i think that hopefully we'll get lucky but maybe that won't happen but we're prepared. i wanted to do this because niki halle ambassador to the united nations has been very special to me she's done an incredible job she's a fantastic person very importantly but she also is somebody that gets it she has been at the united nations from the beginning with us right from the beginning and worked with us on the campaign it's been really a long time very intense and she told me probably six months ago she said you know maybe at the end of the year the end of a two year period but the end of the year i want to take a little time off i would take a little break she's been a very successful you know governor of south carolina for eight years and then shia

she did this and this is possibly even more intense with what's going on in the world and very dangerous and a lot of things. but she's done a fantastic job and we've done a fantastic job together we've solved a lot of problems and we're in the process of solving a lot of problems at the beginning north korea was a massive problem and now we're moving along it's been a long really nicely i can speak for secretary of state mike pompei oh he thinks the world of nicky and so we're all we're all happy for you in one way both we hate to lose day you'll probably you'll be coming back at some point but you wanted just to invent maybe a different capacity you could have you picked but i just want to let you die so at the end of the year nicky will be leaving. and we'll be in constant touch i know that one of you have any ideas you could call me because you know all the players

and that was really the thing i think she did best at the united nations she got to know the players she got to know china russia india she knows everybody on a very first name basis and they like here. except for maybe a couple weeks and i think can't all like you but they they do they really like her and i think maybe more importantly they respect their. so look here just wanted to tell you that we will miss you will be speaking all the time but we will miss you nevertheless and you have got a fair test to judge but i want to thank you very. much. well i want to say first of all i want to thank the president for just allowing us to come out and talk to you this way it has been an honor of a lifetime i you know i said i am such a lucky girl to have been able to leave this state that raised me and to serve a country i love so very much has really been a blessing and i want to thank you for that but i'm most excited look at the two

years look at what has happened in two years with the united states on foreign policy now the united states is respected countries may not like what will we do what they were special what we do they know that if we say we're going to do something we follow through when the president proved that whether it was with the chemical weapons in syria whether it's with nato saying that other countries have to pay their share i mean whether it's the trade deals which have been amazing they get that the president means business and they fold through with that but then if you look at just these two years at the u.n. we've cut one point three billion in the un's budget we've made it stronger we've made it more efficient. south sudan we got an arms embargo which was a long time coming three north korea and sanctions packages which were the largest in a generation done in a way that we could really work towards denuclearizing north korea and iran deal bringing attention to the world that every country needs to understand you can't

overlook all of the bad things they're doing you have to see them for the threat that they are i think you look at the anti israel bias and the strength and courage that the president showed in moving the embassy and showing the rest of the world we will put our embassy where we want to put our and you know all of those things have made a huge difference in the u.s. . standing but i can tell you that. it's that the us is strong again and the us is strong in a way that should make all americans very proud and i do want to say that it's not just the president i want to thank. the family in general the first lady has been nothing but very very kind to me i can't say enough good things about gerrard jared is such a hidden genius that no one understands i mean to redo the nafta deal the way he did it what i've done working with him on the middle east peace plan it is so unbelievably well dime and of office been just a great friend and they do

a lot of things behind the scenes that i wish more people knew about because we're a better country because they're in this administration i also just have to say certainly thank you to my family michael is a saint and my two little ones i adore them and to team us un you know they sacrificed a lot they put a lot of time and energy into it but they have a lot of heart and really wanted to make america proud and so with that i'm not leaving until the end of the year my goal is that we make sure that everything is in good place and for the next ambassador to come in but it's a great day in the united states and i'm proud to have been part of the team and now i don't have anything set on where i'm going to go i think that the main thing was i was governor for six years and we dealt with a hurricane a thousand year flood a church shooting a school shooting there was a lot and then to come in and do two years of russia and iran and north korea it's

been eight years of intense time and i'm a believer in term limits i think you have to be selfless enough to know when you step aside and allow someone else to do the job so thank you mr president it's been an honor of a lifetime and i will say this for all of you that are going to ask about twenty twenty no i'm not running for twenty twenty i can tell you sure. i'll be doing is campaigning for this one so i look forward to supporting the president in the next election so there you go that was just out of the white house probably about thirty or forty minutes ago now wasn't carried live but we have the pictures now nikki haley and donald trump nicky how do you resigning as the u.s. ambassador to the united nations i'm going to go straight to kimberly how could in washington d.c. on this because we need to start talking about this can't believe they're basically portraying this is well business as usual nikki haley said to me maybe six months ago or maybe i don't want to do this past the end of the year it's all business as usual but still it's a shock. it's a shock and it's not clear this is something the president planned on doing today

certainly this was not on the public schedule that was released it appears that this was broken by a very tenacious reporter and perhaps because of a meeting that was may or may not have been on schedules this is now something that has been made publicly public rather because certainly given the pivotal elections that are about to take place with the congressional elections it doesn't seem that these things the appearance of chaos of another member of the trumpet ministration leaving is something that the white house would never necessary want to project but as we often see with nikki haley very controlled statement a commanding respect and also giving the wife perhaps about why she's leaving certainly she has projected some of this on her twitter account in recent months about a longing for her family longing for south carolina perhaps not loving living in new york city and taking on such a big portfolio saying there that she's had a busy eight years and as a result of it maybe as the cliche goes in politics time to spend more time it

might be the opportunity to spend more time with family but certainly she highlighted what she sees as some of her accomplishments there come out and you're right it's a pretty big portfolio she outlined it talking about the pressure too when it comes to nato for the united states demanding that countries pay more of their share holding syria accountable with respect to the use of chemical weapons saying that the united states now shows in projects that it means business that this president means business talking about some of the tough sanctions packages that have been put in place with the leadership of the united states with respect to north korea and also that the u.s. has been working actively to in her words see iran for the threats that they are essentially what we heard there from nikki haley is the belief that she has echoed for many many months as a foot soldier care. the policy of donald trump that the u.s.

is trying again ok kimberly i'm going to leave you there thank you for all of that and watching along with us kimberly how it gets in washington i'm going to new york now though mike hanna actually at the united nations when the highly well it was her home for the last two years that's where she has done her job and actually she was just the president of the security council wasn't she the united states held that rotating presidency going out on a high perhaps. indeed yes come along one must state as well and make very clear that seldom do you see president trump allow somebody sitting next to him take so much oxygen jaring a joint news discussion and that is just a very strong scion of the regard with which president trump held nikki haley their written relationship has been very strong throughout her years at the united nations here now there had been speculation in recent weeks about the changes that had happened in the administration the rise of mike pump a. secretary of state position john bolton being opposed appointed as national security advisor him self

a former ambassador to the united nations and many diplomats here had been talking about the impact that would have on nikki haley now winterson was secretary of state she operated to basically in direct relationship to the white house she had very little contact with tennyson himself that changed with pompei or she is on record as saying she's very close to my pump aoe she's worked with him a long time she gets on well with them and certainly that appeared to be the case but this certainly have been a lot more cooks in this particular kitchen in recent months whether or not that has anything to do with her decision we simply do not know what we heard from her she wants to go on and do other things importantly she says she is not going to be running in twenty twenty which had been the speculation of many people but it will be a real problem for the trumpet ministration as we've been pointing out just stubbled month before the midterm elections but that in a way has got to hit off president trump appears to have got it out of the way she

will be in position until the end of the year case closed but clearly he had to preempt this clearly this was a hasty rearranged meeting with nikki haley as can be reported a little bit earlier you know on earth interest me mike is that it's a means to be on the surface at the moment a member of the trumpet ministration leaving on good terms without a cloud hanging over them and it's as you pointed out a tough loss for donald trump he liked her he got on well with her she executed his plan exactly how he wanted. yes indeed and i must mention one other thing that nikki haley was a member of the national security council now this is actually virtually unprecedented for the best of the united nations to hold such a senior position in fact at one stage she was on the national security council the secretary of state rex tillerson was not just yet another indication of how important president trump saw her role president never claimed to have any

knowledge of international events nikki haley had very little knowledge of international events but the one accurate statement that we did hear from president trump there is that nikki haley learnt to know the players and certainly she did although there was much opposition to many of her positions within the united nations she did during her two years in this building get a very great deal of respect from a number of ambassadors as she was seen as a tough arbitrator as a tough negotiator but at the same time she was seen as a diplomat who was doing the best for her country and was doing the best for her particular president so there was never any personal animosity towards nikki haley in the united nations which given some of the positions she adopted on behalf of the administration is in itself a significant triumph on her particular part but the eyes now will be switching to who is going to be the replacement that is a bit of time before this happens she's in position until the end of the year but

significant too and i must just mention this quickly kemal is that in her comments alongside president from there she went out of her way to praise as well members of president trump's family his daughter and his son in law jared krishna who is responsible for the great middle east peace plan which president trump has been talking about haley confirming that she's been working with jericho on that particular plan but that is an indication there that something has been happening behind the scenes involving hailey certainly. regard to this middle east peace plan which has been basically blown out of the water by any palestinian negotiator who one consults on it but there is a little bit more going on here something that may emerge in the days and weeks ahead certainly the next ambassador to the united nations that president trump appoints is going to have a far more difficult task or a very difficult task to step in the shoes of nikki haley we are fifteen minutes

past the hour here on the newsgroup if you're just joining us breaking news about the resignation of nikki haley and that was mike hanna reporting from the united nations there thank you for that mike really did come as a surprise as we say about thirty or forty minutes ago was that there was a. news website access which broke the news initially reports that nikki haley was going to be sending her resignation to donald trump and before we knew it we saw in it he in the oval office with donald trump quite a lengthy news conference they held there and all incredibly amicable as well james bays of course is our u.n. diplomatic editor and i think you've got on the phone now hi james. well i mean shock of all shocks i said to kimberly before that the white house has tried to downplay it and say oh it's just business as usual this was sort of planned she said it might happen but wow came out of nowhere. well certainly the u.n.

we have sometimes seen speculation in private among the masses about the haiti's future and how long she'd stay in the job and certainly some were speculating that she might stand down after the mid-term elections in november and some diplomats were speculating that it would be very much a political calculation by whether to stay in the job or whether she's actually got what she wanted from the job which is foreign policy credentials she clearly is an important republican political figure from her time as the south carolina governor now she's the foreign policy experience into the mix suggesting i think that she is considering in the future running to be potentially the president of the united states and the first woman president of the united states worth noting also she

says she won't run against president trump of course she may be thinking there is a possibility even with everything going on what might happen in the mid-term elections in the mahler report as well that they won't be president trump to run in twenty twenty one of course that any deal that she's done not to run no longer applies certainly diplomats who i've been speaking to throughout her time as the ambassador in new york felt that this was someone who was doing her job very competently but was making every decision not just what was in the best interest of washington d.c. the u.s. and the trumpet ministration but also what was in the best interests of the political future ambitions of nikki haley herself look at some of the positions she's taken state match with the trumpet ministration but they could be useful in terms of electoral advantage going forward for example had tough position on iran

a strong supporter of israel. fascinating insight from james bays he has that diplomatic editor on the phone there thank you so much for that. so james the talking about possibly nikki haley's future in presidential runs actually matthews commented on facebook and said she's leaving to run for president in twenty twenty categorically she did say in a news conference that she's not doing that and that she's here to support this guy pointing to donald trump but you would say a political ambitions probably not ending with this post at the united nations well a little bit more background on nikki haley now a republican who has been in politics for most of her life back in two thousand and four she ran for a seat in south carolina's house of representatives served for three terms usually winning in runoff elections or because she was unopposed she was the first indian american to hold office in the state then in two thousand and eight she became governor of south carolina and served almost two complete terms but then in general

twenty seventeen she resigned as we know to serve as a u.s. ambassador to the united nations we now know that will be running out at the end of the here's robert pierson with us now former u.s. ambassador to turkey joining us from raleigh north carolina thanks for making the time for us today sir. just your initial reaction was that as for most of us shock . well it was a shock and i think it was a shock to the president but as these things go very well handle it. is abandoned frankly in terms of lee image or chaotic governance that arkham surrounds the but white house so in that sense both of them managed to do this by well when it burnishes her credentials for whatever political future she has and she clearly seems to have won so i would say also frankly that given the turmoil over justice kavanagh this will be a nice interlude for people to reply back on

a strong conservative woman who still supports the president and that may have some effect as well how much of a loss for the president is this i was pointing out to our correspondent a moment ago that she was a faithful lieutenant cheap she executed donald trump's vision as he wanted it and she's not leaving under any sort of controversial cloud that we can see. that's exactly right i think that's very very hard to match her and it will be interesting to see whose name comes forward but she had the knack to know people and she seems genuine when she speaks i've heard her speak out will women she said women's voices have to be heard but she really does have a fine sense of politics and policy and then when she takes a position she's not apologetic about so i think she'll be our ticket pock and who might follow her any thoughts. that is a very interesting question and i think that one of the possibilities for her

announcing her resignation today but effective at the end of the year is to make room for people who come out of the midterm elections might not have done as well as they hoped or cabinet shelves and so on and so forth so she makes this prize if you will the first of the cabinet positions that might be up for grabs and it will be a subject of great discussion after the midterm elections are over former ambassador robert pearson joining us from raleigh north carolina thank you so much for your time really do appreciate it thank you glad to be. hello i can't keep up with my twitter at the moment it's blown up really has as you can see from this map which is the nap that we use called trends map it we're getting tens of thousands of tweets coming out of the united states about nikki haley and her conversation about the resignation has also gone global newsrooms just like ours are currently in

breaking news mode giving us all the latest updates caitlin but from the posts in korea has also shared her photo of her newsroom. and for many now the resignation has come as of as some sort of surprise to many and opinions also divided adam says that i don't don't even think about praising her just because she was one of the nice incompetent members and amy as opposed to saying that she is one of the few in the right in the regime who actually stood up to tar and trump this is a pretty big deal she's referring of course to the opinion piece in the washington post last month and max says that it's sad to see one of the administration grownups leaving would be great if this is a prelude to a primary challenge and then nikki haley as i can see she has spoken but her last post on twitter was actually of her dog bentley which was posted yesterday we do want to get more updates on the story so we need to be updating you get in touch with us as well he's the hashtag aging is good and send in your thoughts too thanks

for your plenty of people getting in touch already there seems to be i would say generally amongst our viewers people please that she's going but perhaps not expecting anything to really change when the new u.s. ambassador to the u.n. is announced well will take office then it will be announced will take office at the stop twenty ninety right we're moving on to of course the other big news and that is jamal khashoggi it was exactly seven days ago the saudi journalist entered the saudi consulate in istanbul and of course he has not been seen since a week later the mystery surrounding his disappearance is mounting along with the condemnation now we do now have footage of crucial g.'s last moments in public washing. post release the c.c.t.v. footage that confirms enter the building on monday afternoon other developments turkey has now been granted permission to search the consulate authorities there think s.o.g. was murdered and are examining motorway cameras in the search for a black van de believe carried the body but as with so much in this case there is

no evidence yet we're going to live to the saudi consulate in istanbul in a moment first this report from stephanie. it's an ominous image. on security camera video entering the saudi considered last tuesday his fiance who accompanied him to the consulate is verified it is the last time he has been seen in public just a few days ago the saudi journalist spoke to b.b.c. radio recently a saudi columnist an economist who was close to the royal court got a listed and that's a good many people because here we are talking about somebody was close to the government right right i don't even want to use the term this is a dissent dissent dissidents then this isn't i mean the people who are this is not even being dissidents right they just have an independent mind until you know i don't call myself an opposition i always say i am just right that i want a free environment to write and speak my mind turkish sources say they believe he

was killed inside the consulate saudi arabia categorically denies that saudi authorities have now said they will allow turkish investigators inside the consulate to continue their investigation but this opposition member and human rights activist says he is skeptical anything will be found. it seems like a professional job it's already been seven days the saudis weren't sure about themselves they would not let the turkish authorities in. after almost a week of silence the u.s. president and a close saudi ally had this to say right now nobody knows anything about it but there's a pretty bad stories going around i do not like that the u.s. secretary of state is also king saudi arabia to support a thorough investigation into the disappearance the saudis did give a tour of the building to a group of journalists on saturday the consul opening a small cabinet and what appears to be a fuse box in an effort to show. was not there there are

a lot of allegations and much speculation about what happened to jamal khashoggi here inside the saudi consulate but turkey hasn't yet provided any evidence to back up their belief that he may have been martyred here and saudi hasn't provided any proof that he ever left the only thing we know for sure is that jamal khashoggi entered the saudi concert a week ago and no one has seen or heard from him since and stephanie is now live outside that saudi consulate in istanbul so i guess and you've been making this point really well in the last couple of days there is no evidence there is no facts at the moment now we have to wait to find out if and when the turks can get in there is there any information on that. no confirmation as to when it could happen tonight it could happen tomorrow i can tell you there's a bit of a media circus here outside the consulate all cameras pointing at the door and i think what everyone is waiting for is something concrete some facts and evidence because of course these allegations are shocking they are extremely serious a lot of sources giving different reports also leaks in the media about the turks

investigating fifteen saudi nationals that arrived in two different planes at two different times whether they checked into a hotel and were only booked for a couple of days in the early they're investigating different block cars that left the consulate behind me where they went which policies they took but again all these things are speculation we don't have anything at hand the only thing is you mentioned there is the still. entering this consulate last week he hasn't been seen or heard of since so i think this is something we do have to wait and see it is something that is hugely political it is hugely loaded and he's not only a journalist this is a man who's very well connected with the debate of the diplomatic circles in the united states in the united kingdom who is close to the rural course who is close to king abdullah of saudi arabia so all eyes really waiting for something concrete to know what has happened to him ok what we will and we'll talk to you when it happens don't stephanie. with us now let's go to anderson an international lawyer

as well as the david in rubenstein fellow in governance studies at the brookings institution he's in washington d.c. for us thank you for your time today the diplomacy is fascinating here isn't it because you've got such serious allegations you've got no facts you've got it happening technically if it did happen technically on saudi soil how do the turks progress from here with all these diplomatic things to negotiate. it is certainly a complicated situation but i think it's important that we do away with some of the myths the misconceptions that applied to embassies and consulates here the fact that this occurred on a consulate or if it occurred on the embassy doesn't actually make it saudi soil or under saudi jurisdiction it's still turkish soil and turkey is still able to investigate crimes and prosecute crimes that take place on that territory what it does mean though is that the saudi government is entitled to certain protections of those facilities that includes the inviolability of certain government facilities

meaning that the host government the turkish government shouldn't be entering those facilities without its permission and also certain immunities for personnel who work there or potentially for the security team that allegedly visited the fifteen individuals involved this black van depending on how they were notified and what sort of status the saudi government claimed for them they may also be entitled to certain legal immunity is it is worth noting that because it's a consular facility not an embassy the people associated with it actually entitled to a lower level of immunities for criminal prosecution that's generally limited to things like official acts meaning acts in their official duties not for you know private acts that may or may not apply to a connecting or killing in this case depending on the facts that come out but certainly it's not the case that turkey is is entirely without legal recourse here there's certainly options it can pursue to investigate this crime and there's a possibility although very unlikely that someone could be found liable for some

sort of prosecution scott anderson you've explained to let's bring in the first thank you i am going to leave you i'm afraid because i am a little bit concerned about us losing the satellite connection to you but thank you so much for clearing up what about about immunity and embassies really helpful . there is extensive coverage of the jamal khashoggi story at al jazeera dot com you might want to start with this one it's a profile of the man it's himself it includes links to video reports there's also an edition of inside story as well can i also recommend some opinion pieces there by people who know jamal personally is some great inside k h a o g g i can shoji search for that at al-jazeera dot com as i say extensive coverage there.

headlines comment what's trending as well the latest on nikki haley of course that news in the last hour hour and a half we have heard about nikki haley's resignation as u.s. ambassador to the united nations we'll be covering that more of course throughout the day on al-jazeera and more on the. united nations voice it's quite serious concern about what has happened to the saudi journalist that is well and actually just looking for the town number six trump white house has been fired and. well that'll be updated once it with nikki haley's departure at the end if you have a look back on that if you want as well that's what's trending this tuesday at al-jazeera doc tom. run through some of the other stories making news around

the world and zimbabwe's president says a new tax on bank transactions is a painful but necessary measure to revive the economy these are innocent first comments since he imposed the levy which has led to the resurgence of re-emergence i should say of fuel and food shortages some very painful memories for everyday zimbabweans has more from. it's perhaps another signs the economy may take a long time to recover some people have been lining up since saturday developed because the central bank governor says fuel shortages are because of the introduction of a two percent tax on back transactions that means products now cost more and suppliers are buying less it's little shortages and many disappointed customers it's up to a very very disappointing because everything is at a standstill gondolin a business the ground running thing was ripped. the worsening economic crisis is compounded by a critical shortage of cash the last time lines were this long was back in two

thousand and eight some people would sleep in their cars for days hoping to get fewer government officials are telling zimbabweans not to panic but some people say they are worried. in some places feel has started arriving but it's still not enough. others are stocking up on groceries these days bread is in short supply and usually doesn't last long on the shelves in some stores customers are limited to two items per person to prevent hoarding and panic buying. stock or next month even before a reversion even corner and produce. behavior persons a change of people uncertain of the future. certainties of. very big pressure inclusions prices a tripled in just a few days it's

a question of increasing capacities the question of my future as my featuring more fill of the shelves because it's just a sage in demand. is there some speculation that's causing some panic buying but again these things are under control they will be no shortage. but increasing production needs foreign currency us dollars the banks say they don't have enough of some importers buy dollars on the black market at a premium sums of worry the could be more frustration and hardship before things get better. al-jazeera had. looking at afghanistan and what we often feel is an under reported issue of child casualties there we know about suffering in places like yemen and syria but in afghanistan to millions don't have access to food or basic hygiene and even though countries and aid groups are sending inferred that's only half the battle tony berkeley reports from herat. is seven months old she weighed less than seven kilograms when she entered this camp almost half the weight

or what 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 hunt hygienic living conditions they have fled to camps like these in herat their families are too poor and helpless to survive without outside help a 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 armed group or another has to give agreement with the prize to get through is not always easy but 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. 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 medical teams to help needy civilians aid workers have been attacked and killed in the past and they too need protection from police and i select only a chance to get an economic plan and we can't go everywhere because areas are too prisca and then we can't help children it 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 parties to 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 and they're yearning for peace and they deserve that unless they sell induction into conflict and improvement in terms of library wants to some odd communities this intuition nothing to do to. become much less. happily not for up son or her wages increased by seven hundred grams in just a week soon she'll no longer be an acutely malnourished baby she doesn't know it yet but hers is a story of hope tony berkeley al-jazeera her at. their u.k. based investigative web site has revealed the real second suspect in the solsbury

poisoning case this is a website called belle and cat it says russian military dr alexander michigan traveled to souls were using a different name the russian. sorry lawrence they actually has a report from london here. if people are trying to murder you then perhaps you can take a little satisfaction from the facts that they are officially heroes of the russian federation much of the life of dr alexander michigan was put on display in westminster housing records car insurance documents even the swampy village in the arctic where he grew up all of it providing a body of evidence that he was involved in the assassination attempts on circus cripple this was a man who had claimed he'd abandon attempts to visit souls because the troll because of the snow and slush yet the village he came from is in permafrost most of the year still he rose through specialist medical school spent time on the cover in

ukraine and the breakaway republic of trans nesta before being honored it seems by helping to squirrel ousted president viktor yanukovych out of ukraine to exile in russia in two thousand and fourteen but this of course all hinges on the theory that the investigators who came out with it are right where absolutely sure i mean from the photographs we have alone i mean we have we have published all the photographs that would feel some vassal sense but we do have multiple photographs showing him he had two very distinct images on his face and his chin one on the bottom of his cheek his it also has a mark on it is visible in all the photographs russia digital at nasa's of fudge preston as well which is the same person is continues to be a bad time for the g.r.u. intelligence agency having also been found out for trying to hack the o.p.c. w. chemical weapons building in the netherlands it all looks amateurish the british government feels like it is in fight back mode it's not necessarily a huge problem convincing people in russia who want to believe that government any

right i think the rest of the world in the global audience i think the evidence of russian involvement is now overwhelming and we've had hundreds of g.r.u. officers named in the past few weeks anyway and if you're trying to run a secret organization if your secret agents are no longer secret then we have a problem of course you my song that it's a shame that colonel. totally chepe go and dr alexander if that's their real names try to present themselves as unhappy tourists called bushy rolf and petroff in salzburg for entirely benign reasons after all to the russian states both men are heroes and circus crippled was a traitor but they can hardly change their story now of course the people will be most pleased about all this the british governments who have always said that the russians did it and can now sit back and relax as everybody else suggests that russian intelligence is just a bit incompetent the russians themselves have always maintained that the british can't provide any evidence but if this isn't proof it's really difficult to know

what is lawrence lee al jazeera in london just want to take you through some of the breaking news we have had this hour we saw donald trump in the oval office speaking earlier obviously about mickey had his resignation but there were some other things first of all he said he knows nothing at this point about the disappearance of the saudi journalist jamal khashoggi but that he will be speaking on that he hasn't spoken to the saudi leadership at any point so far but that he will at some point so it's still kind of vague on the situation with jamal khashoggi we had been waiting for something hopefully more concrete from donald trump nothing just there is also talking about issues to do with china and another summit with north korea but it was the woman sitting beside him in the oval office that was the main news of the day u.s. ambassador to the united nations nikki haley who has resigned now. comes as a surprise it was broken on a news website probably about an hour and a half ago in the united states and then they scramble to get this news conference

together in the oval office donald trump a said well i kind of knew about this nikki haley had said up to six months ago that she may not want to go beyond two years she will be leaving the post at the end of the year and another thing donald trump apparently said is that he would be looking to name a replacement within three to four weeks so nikki haley not gone yet she's still got a couple of months left in the job but it will be as kimberly how it was saying earlier and joan's by the tough act to follow because she has been so loyal to donald trump and executed the plans that he's wanted in his vision on a world stage so now he haley the united nations ambassador to the united states ambassador to the united states resigning she was also quick to say in this news conference she is not running for the presidency in twenty ten twenty twenty and will still be supporting donald trump for his reelection. know something completely different actually google plus the social network you probably sort of kind of heard of you might have even dabbled with it for a little bit but ultimately you forgot about it well it's been shut down now

officially it's because google discovered a security flaw in the platform which exposed the private days are of up to half a million of its users but the fact is google plus has been struggling for years so maybe this is just hastened its demise google plus's for want of a better description. it's just reloading on my i pad here i'm having connectivity prince it's have a look a bit like facebook not as much of a communication tool more of a sharing and this is the al jazeera english google plus page and content is constantly being updated and posted there but even we would have to admit let me see their follow is who they didn't zoom in very well but anyway the photo was there two point six million nothing compared to the eleven and a half million that we have found is the writing was on facebook so where did it all go wrong is it all just about this bug this floor well there's a lot more to the story actually less in spain well go found the bug in the google

plus social network back in march and promptly fixed up the tech firm decided to keep things quiet for months google plus was shut down but the only consumer version and enterprise version will still exist according to a report by the wall street journal now everyone with a g. mail or google account automatically has a g. plus account but the company admits that it doesn't know which accounts were actually impacted and estimates that up to five hundred thousand google plus accounts were potentially affected and google says the link data only concerns profile fields like the name the e-mail address occupation gender and also age and the company is going to implement small controls of the g. mail and on how third party apps collect user data on android the decision to keep things quiet though. is because google thinks that it didn't appear that anyone had access to the user information in a blog post the company says there was no evidence that outside developers were

aware of the security flaw or indication that any user profiles what touched. claims it is shutting down now because of major challenges they're facing with maintaining their social network for example low usage but some have reacted to the announcement online this users posted a cartoon with the caption was it ever alive some say the real scandal is not the breach itself but google's response and this uses says google has kept quiet because of their worry about the criticism we do want to get your thoughts on the story so get in touch with us he's the hash tag genius could you kind of simply message me directly and that you're him home and thanks or he'll you know maybe you've got a question for an excuse month skilton who is a professor of practice and information systems management and innovation at the work business school nice to have you with this. poor old google plus feels like we hardly knew you because the simple fact is bug or not five hundred thousand users or not people didn't really use it that they. yes

it's not been a great it was introduced in two thousand and eleven so it's been going quite a wall is just never been something that's really part of google's culture of say their advertising said five percent of the revenues from the search engine and i think they sold this is just another kind of search obviously if you look at the investment the facebook put into their products as you pointed out earlier the that comparison of al-jazeera is eleven million versus the so the uptake of google plus is really being quite slow. it just surprises me this is what we discussed in amazing really the question oh sorry to interrupt you just it just surprised me because google doesn't i'm speaking very broadly but google doesn't usually get these things wrong you know g. mail has been very successful obviously its search thing its google drive all its products have been so good and this one just really really failed miserably by comparison why do you think is it just has facebook so strong well partly that but also i think there have been

a couple of other ventures that you probably will remember that was google sway was something that happened quite a long time ago where they were trying to build a front end you type of front and getting away from search into something new. so i think they haven't had a good record of this and i think case just being almost like an excuse to kill the product but this takes a breach is quite serious i think ken anything really compete with facebook on this level you know i'm thinking if there's no google plus there was puff which i never really took off either but it's going to be shutting down soon as well twitter and facebook are kind of different in exactly the same league but to avoid another google plus what would what would other social networks have to do. well i think the differentiation is that obviously google facebook has two point two four billion active users per day which is just incredible per month this is an incredible number but i think what's at stake which they will do the regulation and then the the american government talking about bias about personal data privacy in

my humble view is that i think what will disrupt facebook is when people start to have decentralized systems of the touch decisions where you have a personal data is your data not facebook sites all you'll see from all small kid states and i think that is yet to be there all number of solutions out there now that's starting to. get traction because people are realizing that i put all of my eggs in one basket and i have no control over it facebook account of doing it payment damage and that limitation exercise right now with the fifty million data breach that was reported a couple of weeks ago you may recall but there also had to came a journalistic the reason i think that google probably pulled the plug on this is not just the father elves they had an issue around the five hundred thousand records that may have been access we don't know because google themselves has said they don't know how to or would it what the developers may have used in this incident it was a design flaw and in two thousand and fifteen says benefits he is such as very

briefly the question is really the impact on their reputation and i think what will disrupt facebook for example will be new solutions which will come along which will mean that we'll have additional while it's in and our own personal fun skilton thank you very much for your time do appreciate it. how well i haven't actually had any comments on that and i'm having connectivity problems myself a little and google plus the internet is not working so well so i'd put to get your thoughts coming in as the day john hughes would all check in to find little bit once again that for the current facebook life but in a story now for you about a group of young schoolgirls in bihar in india they have had to bear the consequences of standing up against sexual harassment and then we've got sport on the reaction to this man making a major piece of n.f.l. history.

teammates on the field the office of why. i mean it just it played out even greater than i ever could have imagined when something like this happens and i think. you know there's so many people that that are responsible for that we can be a part of that it's a makes me happy you know it makes me proud it makes me extremely grateful brees is in his eighteenth and that fall season his standout year with the saints came in two thousand and nine when the team won the super bowl he has four hundred and ninety nine touchdown passes only manning brett farve or and tom brady are ahead of him his career yards total now stands at seventy two thousand one hundred and three he has at least eleven more games this season to add to that record breaking toda. well drew brees has been trending worldwide on twitter today his accomplishment getting some high praise from some pretty high profile people including former u.s.

president barack obama is always a class act that tweet being liked over one hundred and fifty thousand times and the superstar le bron james tweeted salute to drew brees congrats on the achievements well peyton manning the former record holder who's now retired put up this message for brees it's been viewed almost two million times have a listen paid him fly through grease just broke a record. which one of our best passing yourself so i still have the touchdown record right he thinks he's right what great. drew for a thousand days i've held the record for all time passing yards in the n.f.l. i got to tell you it's been the greatest a thousand days of my life and thanks to you that's over now and you've ruined that for me so thank you very much i have nothing left to look forward to except slicing my tomatoes making dinner for my

fought back and he won gold i think it's important that they enjoy this event it's a privilege that. you can be an olympic games you know i think it's a must be a big motivation for them to dream to be part of a big olympic games in the future and he's one of several athletes role models at the youth games imparting their experience their inspiration to the next generation or the youth games give many young athletes their first taste of major international competition they also provide the organizers with a chance to try out innovative ideas and to help them to gauge the importance of the olympics in why the society. among the topics being discussed on race and gender equality to a paki was here is a squash player from pakistan where she says she was as a woman aggressively discouraged from taking up sport but that didn't stop her and for women i think it can give them

a mark of power and self. understanding. they should be playing more and more sports and. be be in the leadership position to change it to bring change in the countries in their societies the. criticism of the olympic movement is not going away but the issues are being discussed inspired by the spirit enthusiasm of youth. captured here by guest of honor in one of cyrus the thai football team the wall cause this is their first trip abroad after their old delia this year when they emerged united stronger after eighteen grueling days trapped in the cave. one of cyrus ok that's it for me i'll hand it back to camilla for thank you so much that busy news grid has not been with the resignation of nikki haley more on that with the team in london shortly going to talk to us twitter facebook what's that not google plus for you back here in studio fourteen fifteen hundred hours g.m.t.
