the future holds for the. u.s. president bush is saudi arabia. disappearance and turkey calls for the kingdom to cooperate with their investigation. this is. also coming up back to school in iraq children and mosul are returning to the city and lives. in the area head to the polls an election that could change the country's political landscape. grant

is keeping fields like this one the count is having to be trucked in from a thousand kilometers away huge expense. it's hoping for the cost. to occasion officials still haven't been allowed to enter the saudi consulates in istanbul to investigate the disappearance of jealous jamal khashoggi a saudi team arrived in the country on thursday for what's supposed to be a joint inquiry it's been almost two weeks since she was last seen them donald trump is now warning of severe punishment if saudi is found to be responsible. for just standing outside. such as what's happening that takes it does feel that we're a little bit in a holding pattern. that's right

as opposed to recent days where we've seen certainly the turkish government dripping leaks of what they say is evidence all from. inside the consulate to local media we certainly haven't seen that today we understand that these negotiations are certainly efforts by the turks to try and get access to the consul to the consulate and indeed the consul's hove ongoing as you say this is dedication arrive from saudi arabia on thursday there is increasing pressure on the saudis to allow that access but of course the big sticking point is the coding to the vienna convention. a country with an embassy in a guest country has every right to deny access to the host nation on earth or it is and it looks like saudi arabia is very much using that as its broad which if but of course the accusations mounting the longer this goes on them all the questions get louder as to put as to exactly what the saudis are hiding and there is mounting

international pressure on the saudis to open up and cooperate now colleague john hendren has this report from washington. president donald trump is delivering his most serious threat yet to saudi arabia we're going to get to the bottom of it and there will be severe punishment the president strengthens stance follows turkish intelligence reports that washington post journalist jamal khashoggi was murdered by a saudi arabian hit squad inside the saudi consulate in istanbul leaks to pro-government turkish media suggest the killing was recorded on his apple watch but technology experts have cast doubt that the devices bluetooth technology was capable of recording to a phone his fiancee held outside the consulate i wouldn't say unbelievable there's a few technical challenges a few potential issues with this narrative it's not immediately consistent with the

story and what we know of the details so questions remain about just how the turkish authorities obtained the evidence they say they have to prove was murdered when it comes to getting tough on saudi arabia president trump is talking the talk but it's not quite clear what he'll do to follow up he's already all but ruled out what is perhaps his most effective weapon arms sales to saudi arabia. troops first trip outside the united states was to see king solomon in saudi arabia where they agreed to weapons contracts well there are many other things we could do but when we take away one hundred ten billion dollars of purchases from our country that hurts our workers that hurts our fact that it hurts all of our companies here you're talking about five hundred thousand jobs so we do that we're really hurting our country a lot for there were hurting saudi arabia but members of trump's own republican party have joined democratic politicians in calling for stronger action well he's

under a lot of pressure now from the congress to actually impose sanctions on saudi government officials who might have been implicated in this problem in an opinion piece in the new york times to show g.'s fiance or. wrote jamal spoke up against oppression but he paid for the saudi people's demand for freedom with his own life if he is dead and i hope that is not the case thousands of jamal's will be born today on his birthday his voice and his ideas will reverberate from turkey to saudi arabia and across the world oppression never lasts forever tyrants eventually pay for their sins in istanbul in riyadh and in washington what happens next likely depends on what the investigations find and whether turkey releases the evidence it says it has john hendren al-jazeera washington. it's perhaps telling too to remember what's neat the former ambassador u.s.

ambassador to saudi arabia said yesterday he said that this crisis is the worst crisis in relations between the u.s. and saudi arabia since nine eleven and i think it's fair to say that a lot of analysts on now looking at what many describe as a capsule old all the reckless behavior or incidents of reckless behavior by the crown prince in saudi arabia since. coming to power i lists are looking at things like the yemen war which the international community is deeply concerned about the u.n. latest statistics saying around twenty percent of the around seventeen thousand civilian casualties have been children in that war they also cite the saudi late blockade on cuts of their concerns there was a lot of opposition to that policy to that siege that celibacy as i say was being led by saudi arabia and then they look at the instant last year where we sold the

lebanese prime minister saad hariri on a visit to saudi arabia seemingly detained and forced to resign and we understand the reason for that was the saudi leaderships wants to try and kohls a crisis in lebanese politics and weaken the power of hezbollah the iranian supported group in lebanon now it wasn't until international pressure was put on the saudi leadership that in fact saad hariri withdrew his resignation and indeed we look at the elections that happened in lebanon hezbollah got even stronger they did even better than expected in those elections what i'm trying to say is that this latest crisis. for saudi arabia is according to many in the international community a real wake up call as to whether frankly that backing the right man. in a country that is so important in the middle east in the wider region a lot of questions being asked charles for the moment thanks for joining us there

from istanbul best month more money is from the university of warsaw in canada and she explains why it may be limited in its ability to investigate the case there is no body and without body without some sort of physical evidence it becomes very difficult to lay blame and to really carry out a proper investigation add to that the geo political elements of this and indeed i think we're seeing a lot of posturing and a lot of difficulty in moving investigation forward unfortunately there may be a lot of back room negotiations going on to smooth things over and that may come at the compromise of finding out the truth turkey is in one of the worst economic situation since the early two thousand and one can't i think ignore the fact that the currency depreciation certainly the inflation situation and of norma's debt at the end of the day i should say turkey owes a great deal of money to a lot of private banks it will eventually need to restructure and saudi arabia is

going to be an important source we know of course qatar already committed about twelve to fifteen billion dollars but that's you know peanuts in the sense of what turkey needs close to nearly one hundred billion so there's a lot of need for regional actors investment from the gulf including saudi arabia but i think this is going to be. a part of the backroom negotiations perhaps in terms of the narrative we're going to see i think many of us will be watching very closely what this joint task force comes up with. let's move on some other news now on children the iraqi city of mosul a settling back and says more than a year often since he was rick lamed from eisel the armed group shut down and destroyed most of the schools when they seized mosul in two thousand and fourteen. a report says hopes getting an education will help the children heal from the effects of war. it's the first they'll school in bubble elementary school in mosul regular classes up received for the first time in three years. i still use this

school as a military base firing rocket propelled grenades and mortars at nearby air out their forces by the time the complaint to the captain most will solve most of the city was reduced to rubble their own going school or construction work was initiated by volunteers and patents came to see their children back in class can it be this was made possible with the help of contributions from the well wishers within and outside iraq it is the result of the tireless efforts of iraqi women to portray to the world that agony and devastation and most of. the classrooms are crowded and the children must share both books and sits most top forgotten what it is like to be in school up to three years where it can be a struggle say the teachers to get them to listen and participate but it's the trauma and psychological impact the violent cause had that's been the most diverse state. six year old solid that has has him survived an ass like that hit his home

and almost wiped out his entire family he now lives in the partly destroyed house with his father and grandfather the only other survivors of their strike solace father prepares his son for the first day in school he is hopeful making new friends will help ease that a covering. of said humble solace is slowly recovering he nearly died and remembers everything vividly we need more help in caring for him though salah said most the ses every wants. trying their best to help. the psychological impact on children has been here which we have to free the children's minds from all these bad thoughts we're free therapy sessions that are being clearly funded by the government unexploded bombs and other weapons continue to pose a danger to the children in the schools not once as i said the basis of mohammed joins us now live from the unicef school in iraq's capital baghdad same who saw children there in mosul heading back to school children there in the capital also

going back there at a makeshift school lunches how necessary and aid to rebuilding iraq's education sector. quite necessary a lot of the ease of a rush to kickstart iraq's ailing educational sector which has suffered conflicts and all kinds of problems including verty this is a model school which is to be replicated in other parts of the country one point two million children are out of school most of them in areas where the conflict hoskin out it's was in fallujah and ramadi and many other parts of the province now the government has promised many times to rebuild schools in many parts of the country. saying that one in every tool schools in the country needs to be reconstructed some of them have been used as places by

i still fight as during the course of the time there's been a holding some of these towns and villages in various parts of the country so the challenge is a huge investment and needed to be put in it because. and the government facing a lot of criticism slow pace of school week instruction despite more than a million children not in education what challenges they're facing. well that is a huge problem when one vote is called a big debate here in the cup which will buckle down the government has promised to rebuild. but. now they. have spoken to officials who say they said with all kinds of calls and really overwhelmed by the needs of the society that emerging from the broken down

infrastructure the need for health care provision and all other kinds of stuff the government but many on the list will tell you that corruption and block of political. holding back the government from cutting out. the books. with at least we can see boys getting on with that school day it's good to say thanks very much for joining us from baghdad still ahead on al-jazeera an american evangelical pastor freed from jail and he gives his blessing to donald trump but will his release have any domestic political impact. there were a whole mass of thunderstorms over the southeast in parts of asia at the moment but

control borders better they say that's the only way to govern this state whereas the parties of the center left on the left will they reject that thesis they say that migration has worked well has been managed well and that this issue is a cloud for other agenda they want to concentrate instead on bread and butter issues on housing and employment schooling that sort of thing the reason that this election matters local election in munich in bavaria matters well it's because the the reverberations from the result here will definitely reach berlin the federal coalition made up of christian social union varian conservatives angela merkel's conservatives and the social democrats will be looking to see what happens here because it might shake the make up and the fabric of that federal coalition. worship person of the orthodox church in ukraine have celebrated mass to celebrate their split from the russian orthodox church ukraine secured approval to establish an independent church on thursday as being described the biggest split in

trucked in for a thousand kilometers away with transport it costs about two hundred fifty dollars a barrel. one hay bale will feed sixty cows for a day dunford has three hundred eighty so feeding them is costing him more than ten thousand dollars a week the grind of a drought gets to you know like you get a fifty k. or wayne blaring if i sold i was really drastic you still referred to stock and. what we need as but it gets everyone a bit cranky for some rosen and it tend to get out but it's just the fact that you're out there every die and. things go backwards not forwards. dunford is mixing some hay with wheat grain and compact grass silos to keep costs down but making that mix is harder work even if it is slightly cheaper across the east in australia the drought me the farmer the putting in a lot more effort and paying out

a lot more money now the government part to help with the what but it can and leaves helping with the money australia's national and state governments are subsidizing transport costs offering low interest loans and giving cash payments to farmers worth nine thousand dollars only having assets of more than three point seven five million dollars disqualifies farming families from the handouts it's the sort of help people in no other industry get this is a way of life and that is important to australia's future and as a result of that i think that means there's a special responsibility here but some economists think farms need to deal with drought as any business deals with risk in good he is economically viable farmers make lots of money which should carry them through the tough ones few australians though see it that way most live in cities but they have a deep cultural affinity with rural communities it dates back to stories of colonial settlers timing
