repeat of what happened after the earthquake in one thousand eight hundred five but the cost complexity of hundreds of people living in camps is a major task and one that many people here think the government. source tells turkish investigators have evidence that missing journalist. was killed inside the saudi consulate the saudis are to consider issuing a statement that she was killed during an interrogation gone wrong that's according to u.s. media. coming up a commercial lifeline for syria's government two border crossings opened and a third with iraq has to be approved. and the microsoft co-founder.

welcome to the program a source from the turkish attorney general's office told our jazeera that they found evidence the missing saudi journalist jamal khashoggi was murdered inside the saudi consulate in istanbul where turkish investigators finally got to spend hours in the building thirteen days after her disappearance well earlier a saudi team entered the compound in what's being billed as a joint investigation al-jazeera has learned that the results of the investigation will be announced in two to three days time u.s. media reports say saudi arabia is weighing up whether to release a statement that he was killed as a result of an interrogation that went wrong the saudis reportedly planned to say the operation was carried out without official clearance sounded me to. he says the

kingdom will intervene those who are mentioned in turkish media as suspects in the case all this comes as u.s. secretary of state mike pompei o is on his way to riyadh to discuss khashoggi disappearance with the saudi king more now from al jazeera is jamal trial. it took turkish investigators thirteen days to finally be given permission by saudi authorities to enter their consulate in istanbul but just a few hours for them to uncover more evidence they say proves that journalist jamal khashoggi was killed after entering get. the turkish attorney general's office exclusively telling al-jazeera that its team of investigators were able to not only recover evidence from the crime scene but also that there had been a clear attempt to tamper with it. earlier on monday a team of cleaners arrived at the diplomatic mission a bizarre occurrence considering the circumstances they were then followed by saudi investigators who are part of what's been billed as a joint task force with questions being raised as to how the main suspects in

a crime can have a lead role in the investigation itself. there are still so many questions that need on cers why did saudi arabia essendon autopsy experts if as some of its media outlets have been claiming the plan was only to question. how did the saudi government's nuts know of the operation when it's apparently involved two of crown prince mohammed bin son man's personal bodyguards and where is jamal khashoggi is body a full investigation would look at all of the cars that left the consulate from the time that shogi entered up until even now and presumably it's the personnel on the consulate and you want to look at their homes and their cars often one can find d.n.a. evidence of incredibly minute amounts but telling in vehicles well after intervent occurred so i would look at that i would look actually at presumably the

saudis have cleaned everything weirds. chlorine or who knows what but i would i would look at the the drainpipes and i look at all of the belongings of the members of the staff who have come in and come out the case has forced multinational corporations like ford virgin and j.p. morgan to withdraw from an upcoming investment conference in saudi arabia the kingdom stock exchange suffered big losses on sunday truth all of this coupled with the fact that the interests of regional and super powers are stake could mean that we may never know the answers. it's why people will be monitoring closely to see what's evidence turkish authorities will reveal to the public once they complete their investigations tuesday marks two weeks since democracy is believed to have been murdered those who killed him appear to have wanted to silence him instead however their crime has triggered criticism and outrage from around the world much

of it's directed towards the saudi government's. istanbul well in the last hour khashoggi his family has issued this statement as we await definitive answers and facts from multiple ongoing investigations we believe it's imperative to launch an independent impartial and internationally recognized investigation in order to provide us and the men who love them with much needed clarity and resolution under their senior political analyst mark bashara says saudi officials must take accountability and can't plead ignorance of the matter and let's order mind ourselves that. the man is also in charge of the saudi intelligence so here you have the person who's in charge of oil economy intelligence religious establishment as well as the military. not knowing what happens in his own consulate after sending two teams there and the next day denying all knowing what

happened to share my huggy or that he he says he did not leave the consulate of course none of that is believable but what's what's the worst part about it is that as it and revels this is like life imitating fiction except it's a bad fiction this is a bad novel a bad thriller a bad mystery because the actor does not comparable does not lie well does not hide his crime well all the lies are transparent and the stories keep changing and things from a bully to a victim back to a bully again so really it's a quite a messy story that continues to unravel and indeed fascinate the world we just moved today in particular from a tragedy to a tragic comedy no one believes anything that's coming out of riyadh well mike hanna joins us live now from washington d.c. and mike what's your assessment then of these comments coming from president trump that possibly rogue elements carried out the killing i mean that's coming under

heavy criticism and even anger from congress. it is indeed many members of congress are absolutely infuriated that president trump made that statement their belief is that he's channeling what much of the saudi media has been doing basically one senator even went so far as to tweet that president trump is acting as a p.r. agent for the saudis so certainly very strong feelings being stirred among members of congress strong feelings not only about president trump and what he said but also about the one who was once the darling of the washington social circuit the crown prince of saudi arabia. president trump arrived in florida to view hurrican damage and at the same time reports began to pull to route to power to solve the admission but the journalist was killed by mistake in an unsanctioned abduction attempt. the president tech knowledge hearing about the reports we were

getting very close with saudi arabia and with germany and they would be again to figure out what happened and they want to know what happened also so a lot of people are working on it with a lot of people and we'll be back and very much by that will say i heard everything but nobody knows it's an official report so far just the rule of the rule reporting from you had earlier in the day president trump floated the theory of what may have happened at the saudi consulate which sounded to me like maybe but if it were killers. we're going to try getting to the bottom of a very this narrative also pushed by some saudi media was greeted with anger by members of congress the democratic senator from maryland sent topless tweet president trump suggestion that elaborately planned to murder in the saudi's own consulate was orchestrated by road killers defies reality says chris van hollen orders must have come from the top the u.s.

must not be complicit in an effort to cover up this heinous crime his skepticism also expressed by a former u.s. ambassador to the u.n. samantha power she says the notion that mohammed bin solomon one of the most controlling leaders in the middle east didn't know his government was sending fifteen goons to turkey to abduct a saudi critic is absurd. and there's increasing criticism of the saudi crown prince by senior members of congress democrat senator chris murphy who serves on the foreign relations committee had this to say in a washington post opinion piece as the new crown prince in gauges in increasingly reckless behavior more and more of us are wondering whether our allies actions are in our own best interests the lists of erratic actions from muhammad bin solman is long the jailing of royal family members the detention of the lebanese prime minister a nonsensical feud with cutter the growing internal repression of political speech

and the disastrous war in yemen and a tangible response to the growing climate of criticism the elaborate national day celebrations at the saudi embassy this week have been canceled. while the saudi government has been a said you were saying courting the trump administration and certainly trying to get approval in public opinion last year alone saudi paid some twenty seven billion dollars to lobbying firms here in washington d.c. well in the last three days three of those firms have been announced that they've severed all relationship with saudi arabia or to mike hanna there in washington d.c. mike thank you both phyllis bennis is from the institute for policy studies she says the saudi explanation surrounding khashoggi is disappearance lacks basic logic. the notion that this could happen without the direct approval of mohammed bin sandman m.b.a.'s who is very tightly controlling the administration of the of the saudi

government simply boggles the mind this is this is made up it also we should note even if that were true if that ridiculous story happened to be true it would still be an incredible violation of international law the notion of a brutal violent interrogation that wasn't supposed to end in death but ended with somebody who happened to have a bone saw with him to dismember the body it there is just nothing about it that makes any sense we should know this is not the first time that a u.s. ally has has committed massive crimes a war crime it's not the first time the saudis have and president trump is not the first us president to allow that to happen without any real consequence there's no red lines for allies in most cases the difference here is that this was so blatant and that it's had this extraordinary reaction from the public from the press for a whole host of reasons that that jamal khashoggi was not just a saudi dip

a saudi critic but he was a legal resident of the united states he writes for the washington post one of the most influential papers here he speaks fluent english has lots of ties within the within the establishment here in washington congress is now very very angry about this and there is the possibility that congress may move it may turn out that jamal khashoggi is a murderer assuming that that is what in fact happened will result in the possibility of a bringing much closer an end to the war in yemen perhaps it will not have been completely in vain it's not a situation where where he had never acknowledged that trump in question or might be complicit in this although him so. well did call for a cease fire in yemen did blame the yemen as a humanitarian crisis on the prince he didn't say that trumping were complicit but

indeed they are also to come here and al-jazeera including. this is the try to curb karma heads to prevail britain's prime minister tries to reassure her nation on breaks that despite a breakdown in talks with the e.u. and australia's prime minister says he's open to relocating the embassy in israel to jerusalem why critics say it's a ploy to influence voters in a crucial byelection on that so that's. been nice pink scar yes by the time. or is the sun sets in the city of angels. the seasons changing showers have been generated to the iranian mountains and they're pretty obvious they want to cloud their house a cluster of thunderstorms giving a reported sixty ultimately this is a rain in twenty four hours that probably came out in three or four hours it will of course some flooding on the chance i will see some more showers again the heat

is there on the iraqi plane the uplift is there in iran and there's been an injection of moisture from the north from the caspian sea and probably from further west as well so more showers seem likely and they could be vicious and they could also be around the southern caspian sea coast you just missed it with our multis down to two degrees now and has been stirring for a couple of days and will be for a couple more this just south into reagan peninsula where the weather is generally quiet at this time of the year and it is except for the remains a slight clone loop done is already caused wet and windy weather in short which means all have been so flash floods in eastern yemen certainly around armaan and you'll see the forecast present right up into the empty quarter isn't going to bother many people but because we've got the moisture injected i think you could see some significant thunderstorms maybe in the mountains around oman possibly further north through u.a.e. or even qatar in the next two or three days. there with sponsored by.

the sun. i'm the first to me. this. if you go to. my night. we make a strong we. on al-jazeera. welcome back to other top stories here this hour

a source from the turkish attorney general's office has told al jazeera they found evidence missing saudi journalist jamal khashoggi was murdered inside the saudi consulate on monday turkish investigators were finally allowed into the building thirteen days after the journalists disappearance and u.s. media reporting saudi arabia is weighing up whether to release a statement that was killed as a result of an interrogation that went wrong the saudis reported it to say this was done without official clearance and u.s. president donald trump says rogue elements from inside saudi arabia could have been a sponsor for his disappearance has now sent surface state to saudi arabia to discuss the issue with impales also expected to visit. so let's take a step back now and look at how this story on the fold in jamal khashoggi went missing shortly after entering the saudi consulate in istanbul on october the second he went there to pick up papers to get married as his fiance waited outside well the next day. saudi authorities confirmed he disappeared but also said that he

had left the consulate the turkish security sources later revealed they had information he was tortured and killed inside the consulate allegations dismissed by the saudis as baseless lies when a week after his disappearance international pressure mounted on saudi arabia u.s. president donald trump warned of severe punishment if the kingdom was to blame security video was released showing entering the consulate days after saudi officials said the camera's there working soundman got involved speaking to turkish president erdogan and a phone call on sunday saying no one could undermine the strength of their relationship and in the past few hours a joint investigation team entered the consulate where best money is a professor at the university of waterloo she says turkey and let us have a vested interest in moving on from this story while preserving their relations with saudi arabia. many people want to take the story particular at the government level from the turks to the americans to the saudis and just frankly have the news

cycle move on in many ways having the saudis admit to some sort of culpability and this is a way to sort of hopefully divert attention away from the story because at the end of the day this is not doing well is not helping either the saudis or the americans or even the turks for that matter i think all three parties have a vested interest and basically coming and closing this chapter it's been almost two weeks and i think everybody you know sort of watching this is quite surprised at how long this is last particularly at a time under trump where frankly you know yesterday's news is seems like it's eons ago so i think there's a lot of vested interest in moving this forward and that's why we see the story come to the fore trunk and be able to tell many of the senators who've been very vocal about you know doing some saying that we got to the bottom of it the saudis admitted it there was no connection to any sort of higher echelons of power it was a rogue element there will be one or two fall guys that will take the fall and the

rest will sort of be exonerated and i think we're not going to get to the truth because none of the parties particularly the americans and i think the turks and the saudis none none none of really want to get to the truth because unfortunately that's going to complicate their relationship and that's far more important for them all. yemen's president rubber months so hard he has sacked the prime minister ahmed bin dargo will face an investigation over the country's economic crisis the yemeni currency has plummeted in recent months sending thousands of people out protesting in the streets through the fuel prices have skyrocketed due to the ongoing conflict. a border crossing between syria and jordan has opened for the first time in three years territory near the naseem crossing it was recaptured from rebels by syrian government forces in july naseem used to be a busy route for goods and people before it was closed during a major battle of the civil war and the foreign ministers of syria and iraq of held a joint press conference in damascus declaring that the al book come out crossing between their countries will open soon iraq recently redeployed its forces on the

borders the jordanians are very eager to have this trade going that jordan economy as we know is been has been sagging under the weight of all these wars and there's been a big demonstration so the jordanian government is very eager to get jobs back to ordinary jordanians there's been a little cascade many cascade of countries embracing syria and that embrace was shown only a week ago with the foreign minister of botany a small country but an important one and they met with lots of cameras rolling this was a staged event in which will lead what i love the foreign minister of syria gave a big bear hug to the foreign minister about rain he gave a very warm interview with a kuwaiti newspaper in which he thanked the quaid he's very generously for standing by syria throughout the war so increasingly. the gulf countries have been embracing
