taleban. turkey's state major have released the late last known footage of missing saudi journalist and critic jamal khashoggi and it seen entering the saudi consulate in istanbul on the day he vanished they've also footage of the men believed to be involved in his disappearance the new york times reported that he was killed at his country's consulate on the highest orders of the saudi government the newspaper cites a senior turkish official well correspondent stephanie decker is following all the lines from outside saudi consulate in bull and stephanie was saying get more leaks this time it's footage released to the turkish media. that's correct and it's quite sinister watching it because it shows the movements really of the man of the fifteen saudi nationals that as you mentioned anonymous

sources nothing is official on camera at the moment are saying were behind the killing say or the killing. in that consulate behind me eight days ago what they say is that they flew on two planes and this you see t.v. footage shows the planes on the tarmac it shows the man going through airport. security impossible to control it shows them outside here then leaving the called into that so what it maps together appalls of the what they believe happened on that day there's also been further leaks laura which is that emerged this morning overnight a the turkish media having pictures of these men and their names some of them saying that some of them a part of saudi intelligence the days are going as far as saying that one of them was an autopsy expert the new york times gruesome detail again quoting an anonymous turkish senior official saying that jamal khashoggi was killed two hours ofter he entered that exact door eight days ago because those men were waiting inside saying

that his body was dismembered with a body soul a bone saw that the men carried this is gruesome horrific detail we have no evidence at the moment but certainly there's a step up in information that's being leaked and you know coming from turkey you would expect this to be have sanctioned by the senior levels of government is of course a very difficult political story as well but this is the picture also that american intelligence as you mentioned it intercepted conversations between senior saudi officials talking about the possible capture of the saudi journalist it is a horrific story it is a shocking story again no evidence at the moment but all these leaks pointing to something very very sinister and serious having happened behind me in that building and certainly as a shocking story. remind us why assad is wise and wanted to target. well he left the kingdom around a year ago moving to washington d.c.

he wrote for a major publication the washington post op ed editorials where he criticised the policies of the current crown prince mohammed bin sad man and he's been quoted recently saying that he was growing increasingly concerned not just for his own safety but other you know sort of voices that had been arrested voices that were close to the royal court that weren't called dissidents so to speak but were just just had a different form of opinion to those of the crown prince and his policy so you know people will tell you that this has happened before saudi arabia has gone off to voice of dissent before but certainly not in what the picture that's being painted at the moment which is a man going back into that consulate he was pulled back to finalize divorce papers because he wanted to get married to his fiance she waited outside he went in there to do that and according to all these reports he was murdered by a hit squad and of course we still don't know where his body is again all of this is unconfirmed but it is an incredibly worrying and serious situation indeed. for

the moment thanks very much brings the latest there from istanbul. shanahan is research fellow at the lowry institute for international policy and he says the incident puts the turkish government in a difficult position. you know isn't this probably one of those issues that national leaders have to face today and rather not face you know accusations that saudi arabia who encouraged like to invest in the economy which is not doing particularly well at the same time prison is on the opposite side of the dispute with cattle so this is a very loaded issue for our present iran especially scott two issues yes a deal with one. a very. exhaustive investigation into exactly what a third so as far as it is possible to know the events surrounding the disappearance

of the edge of our show me and then exactly what he does with that in order to advance to his interests. to hopefully shine a light on sally activities but not to do it in such a way that the relationship with their riyadh would be terminated as say had to change angus's made a public plea to the u.s. rising in the washington post she said at this time i implore president trampin first lady malani are trying to help shed light on jamal's disappearance i also urge saudi arabia especially can sell man a crown prince mohammed bin someone to say the same level of sensitivity and release c.c.t.v. footage from the consulate jamal is a valuable person an exemplary thinker and a courageous man who has been fighting for his principles i don't know how i can keep living if he was abducted or killed in tech came. the u.s. government has demanded a full investigation into casualties disappearance and there are growing calls in

washington for stronger action against saudi arabia allan vesa has more. one week on since the disappearance of american resident jamal khashoggi in istanbul and the u.s. is still chasing answers i know nothing right and i know what everybody else knows now the u.s. state department insists it is pressuring the saudis were not going to make any judgments about what had happened to him the united states is certainly concerned about his whereabouts a senior officials at the state department have spoken with saudi officials through diplomatic channels about the matter we call on the government of saudi arabia to conduct a thorough trant and transparent investigation at a washington conference discussing come to events in saudi arabia concerned for the journalist disappearance bubbled under the surface one human rights activist says the u.s. must take much stronger action than just expressing concern i'd like to see the u.s. demand that the saudis produce him and if they can't produce him produce the detailed explanation including documentation c.c.t.v. footage whatever is necessary to demonstrate what did happen to him. donald trump

has forged close links with saudi arabia his first foreign trip was to the kingdom when he entertained crown prince mohammed bin salman at the white house he boasted of significant arms deals he wants the saudis to help bring in iran's regional ambitions and to sell any white house middle east peace plan to the palestinians but politicians on both sides are more shinton see if what the turks are seeing is true and could should you was murdered in the consulate in istanbul than there has to be a significant change to us so the relations as elected leader we stand with you in the media in solidarity to making sure that this does not go unnoticed if this is true if the saudi regime murdered murdered journalist cricket in their own consulate there must be a culpability and there must be an unequivocal condemnation by the united states

one middle east expert says any change has to be well thought out but i do think it needs a retail operation or you. i think a very strong unequivocal message needs to be sent to riyadh that there are consequences for these kind of actions and that american support is not unconditional there's growing pressure on the saudis to come up with answers about what actually happened in istanbul and if they do and there's a growing number of politicians in the united states they say that must significantly change the relationship between the two countries alan fischer al-jazeera washington. is a cia officer and served as deputy national intelligence officer a transnational threats at the u.s. national intelligence council he says so is leaking information on both sides says just how complex this case says as an intelligence officer what first astonishes me is that such. an intercept would be made public if in fact it occurred

because that then makes clear it would make clear to the saudis and everyone else that the americans were intercepting saudi transmissions that would be assumed by should be by every country anyway but i'm very surprised that one would confirm this by letting the information know now the fact what has been intercepted is also notable because if true and there are now seem to be in creasing disparate bits of information that corroborates or substantiate the other pieces of information it would be shocking acts and tests clearly glaring one which there are or were an intelligence operation would be really in cock up and to lure someone into your own consulate and then murder the person and and while you know that your entrances and exits are all being videoed is astounding really. and leader of bangladesh's main opposition party has been sentenced to life

a person in connection with the european arrest warrant that was applied for and procured by paul guerin the authorities looking into investigating the rape and murder of the thirty year old journalist victoria mad enough to be confirmed facts as i say of those unconfirmed sources so far at least both here in germany and involved area shedding a little bit more light on what's this this individual and what and his movements involve garia the suggestion has been that he fled the country on sunday of last week and came to germany and there is speculation involved parents because one of his parents lives in this country there's also speculation that when the authorities went to an address of his they found the mobile telephone of murder journalist because he amount enough to the next step given that this is a european arrest warrant process will be extradition but clearly the individual concerned has rights and will be able to contest it if he wishes. still ahead here

system pushing across the tasman sea another system though is making its way over here towards the west towards perth that's going to bring some clouds as we make our way towards the end of the weekend winds are going to be coming out of the north first so that means some warmer conditions there but then as we go towards friday we do expect to see that system start to make its way a little bit more cross the by sea those brain showers maybe up towards adelaide as well but the time to really drops of perth and twenty four degrees all the way down towards eighty adelaide you'll be seeing about twenty two degrees and cloudy across much of the east with brás been a cool and rainy day if you at bank t. and here across parts of tasmania as well as over here towards new zealand we are going to be seeing some windy conditions and for auckland we're looking at winds and the temperature at eighteen degrees. from cutting edge medical technology toxic could be. the development of march state

believed to be involved in his disappearance. u.s. state department in the un are calling for a full and transparent investigation into the case. of the whereabouts of the list. although police in germany have arrested a man in connection with the murder of a. victorian my neighbor was raped and killed in the northern town of blues should be investigating suspected fraud with the new funds involving businessman and politician. resident scholar at the middle east institute and also served as u.s. ambassador to turkey he says the case could change the relationship between the u.s. and saudi arabia. well i think this is really pressure to put the saudis on notice that they must give a transparent explanation very quickly i think otherwise the tide will really turn

against them and it's now been nearly a week and nothing has been shown to be proven about his safety so i just remind our listeners that recently forty seven senators voted to cut off the saudi arms sales now that's four short of a majority but this is exactly the kind of incident that wouldn't just be a senator holding up arms sales as one of your correspondent said but actually legislation in the u.s. senate to stop saudi arms sales so it is beginning to reach a genuine crisis point now which can be solved very quickly but the saudis are really on the spot i seriously doubt the senate's going to vote to cut off saudi arms sales this week they'll try to get the saudis to give an explanation the administration will try to be as cautious as they can be given the realities of the circumstance after all research to show he is also

a journalist for an american newspaper and but but eventually and that may be quickly if the saudis don't come up with something the arms sales bill the the the lack of interest and pleasure in the yemen war that saudi is prosecuting those are the kinds of things that can turn very quickly into a political statement that will damage saudi relations with the united states and damage saudi's reputation worldwide. well the mystery surrounding the disappearance of jamal khashoggi has once again brought attention to the plight of journalists around the wild. is no exception that the profession has become more dangerous in recent months is there a man europe since there was money or a pillow reports from. assaults harassment and death threats have come to characterize the working conditions for many independent journalists and. maybe

not have been there yet but what we have a video journalist and recalls the moment he was shot in the arm while covering an anti-government demonstration only one batter. i tried to stand and couldn't contract couldn't feel it i mediately thought the worst. moments after being shot other journalists rushed to winston's aid and drove him to a private hospital winstone says most of his colleagues have also been the targets of attacks. is winston's boss and the founder of one hundred percent news he says that since the unrest began threats against his staff haven't stopped said but only thing being a journalist today is a matter of life and death. we've been harassed shot at angry mobs sent by the government to intimidate us at one point we were under siege unable to leave the building for several days. last april in the

city of laon a radio station known for being critical of the government who set on fire with journalist still inside the us the flames are so big they burst through the front door and ignited the clothes on the attackers as well as a security guard. walking through the charred remains of his office fransisco tortoise an independent radio reporter showed us where men armed with machine guns explosives and petrol canisters stormed the building this is what is left of the offices of radio deal the fire destroyed the roof and practically everything else this radio station was one of the first media outlets to be attacked when the political crisis began but acts of intimidation and violence against the nicaraguan press continue. attacks against the press have left at least one journalist dead so far government representatives however have ignored our request for a statement on the matter as the political conflict drags on organizations like the

interim merican press association are calling on the nicaraguan government to investigate and prosecute those responsible for attacks against journalists and their families went up until and zita when i was donald trump says he's considering five candidates for the role of u.s. ambassador to the united nations often he haley's sudden resignation mike hanna reports from the. many in the security council disagreed with the policies that the us representative championed again but during eighteen months at the un nikki haley engendered a great deal of respect forming warm personal relationships with those she supported as well as those she so forcibly opposed the secretary general had a truly very good working relationship with her he worked. to get through some of the toughest moments i think between the u.s. and the u.n. some diplomat said privately spoken about haleigh's loss of influence within the

trumpet ministration in particular following the appointment of mike pump aoa secretary of state and former u.n. ambassador john bolton as national security adviser but president trump says discussion with haley about her possible resignation had started as long as six months ago and unlike other members who left his administration he keeps open the possibility of her rejoining it we're all happy for you in one way but we hate to lose you know hopefully you'll be coming back at some point but if you want to just be a different capacity you can have your pick if are all in here that are going to ask about twenty twenty no i'm not running for twenty twenty i can promise you when i'll be doing is campaigning for this one so i look forward to supporting the president in the next elections the question now who's going to be the next ambassador to head up the u.s. mission just over the road president trump says he'll announce a successor in the next two to three weeks possibly even sooner signaling that he

wants to make the announcement before those crucial midterm elections in just under a month well dana certainly a person i would consider as she is under consideration and the president's daughter ivanka i think of our view would be rather bold that doesn't mean that you you know what i think or because you fear cues have no business. even though i'm not sure there's anybody more confident in the world but that's ok but. but we are lucky that numerous people the discussion put on hold as the president has yet another campaign rally to attend my kind of al-jazeera united nations. iraq's new prime minister. as expected to deal with the economic crises that's led to a lot of protests in the country some oil which prevents a. it's home to iraq's force and oil fields that produce seventy five percent of the nation's oil ramadan day reports from baghdad. the bustling portal basra province is. a crucial lifeline to the country's economy every day tens

of thousands of tons of imported goods are offloaded at these dogs more than three million barrels of oil field tankers distin for the global market while busting up pumps millions into government coffers every day but a little of that reaches its residents we've been totally neglected we have no clean water no electricity no jobs we keep wondering how we sunk to this level. where is the government fifteen years we've been kept hearing these promises without action we're still not seeing any efforts to save us from this misery in the impoverished suburbs of iraq's second largest city a simmering soup of garbage and roll see which is a common sight. grievances boiled over in early july when thousands took to the streets to protest what they say is government neglect but the protests what you get after thousands of people got sick drinking contaminated water after five

months of political crisis and finally has a new leadership moments of the but i'm sorry a cut from the from iraq was elected president by parliament he topped the lobdell mahdi a shia former minister to form the next government as prime minister the job is huge and the future. is central to their success. i believe that the current shift and politics in iraq however tiny is driven by recent events in basra it's important for the new leadership to understand that failing in basra is not an option and would mean total failure for them. rising tension in boston the outgoing administration announced two months ago a multi billion dollar emergency plan to restore facilities and vital services in the region this time the people of basra refusing to settle for what they call token improvements many say that unless there is many change in the political

system under the new administration funds for development may once again end up in the pockets of corrupt officials. the death toll from an earthquake and tsunami has climbed past two thousand. and the search for bodies rescue workers continue to distribute aid press will be held on thursday to mark the end of the search for the dead in the city of palu most of the bodies have been found and sixty five thousand homes and buildings were destroyed and as many as seventy thousand people displaced afghanistan's government says try new ways to help young men who fought with the taliban some of them are as young as twelve and have been sentence for offenses such as attempted suicide and possessing explosive devices prison authorities using education and games to reverse what they say has been taliban brainwashing tony betty reports. this

is a former women's prison at bottom bagging kabul it's been turned into a juvenile rehabilitation center housing children the government says fought with the taliban we can't identify the children all starve because they fear reprisals but the boys have either been charged or convicted of a range of activities including planting roadside explosive devices and attempted suicide bombing offenses they all deny mohammed is sixteen and he's serving a five year sentence for possessing a roadside bomb he says he was framed by family and his and claims he has no connection with the taliban. i have nothing to do with the taliban bad people pay the police to frame me but i did nothing. this type of facility is the first of its kind in the country it houses thirty four detainees age from twelve to seventeen and they are part of a new strategy by the afghan government to move from previous harsh detention

conditions to a new more compassionate approach aimed at winning hearts and minds. we try and reverse the taliban brainwashing we are also using some of the same techniques but they only explain to the kids one side and we explain through education both sides and try to tell them that everything that they've been told is not true. once these were cells and now their classrooms boys are taught to read and write here and given an education they otherwise wouldn't get is designed to show what life is like away from taliban control in many ways they are more fortunate than children detained in other parts of the country. i am studying and i'm going to know all about good things now when i am released i will continue with my life. to marchmont aware that some of the juvenile centers have reasonable living conditions but we get reports of abuse in some of them and because of a lack of education there is not violence and sexual abuse comparable and officials

say these methods are proving successful in eighty percent of cases but some would argue that the inmates have no choice but to comply but there are no guarantees that once they leave here they won't succumb to the pressures and circumstances that lead them here in the first place. lack of food in prospects can be a driving force behind a young boy's thinking and with a die conditions in many parts of rural afghanistan it will not be difficult for the taliban to find willing recruits there are concerns of these new government methods don't work these teenagers could pose a threat in the future not only in afghanistan but also other countries to help create. suicide attacks or global threat not just to ghana stan and if we don't stop them here than they can happen in other countries as we have seen. it's hard to imagine watching them play volleyball that these boys' lives have been so marred by violence like many others they've lost more than their freedom they have also lost their youth tony berkeley al-jazeera kabul. hurricane michael is continuing to
