and still feel battered for even those who managed to escape their country haven't truly been able to escape the war. this is al jazeera. hello and welcome i'm peter dhabi you're watching the news our live from our headquarters here in doha coming up in the next sixty minutes. turkish investigators move their attention to the home of the saudi consul in istanbul this after the police say they found evidence that the journalist jamal khashoggi was killed inside saudi's diplomatic consulate building the u.s. secretary of state's arrives in riyadh for

a meeting with the saudi king after president donald trump speaks about rogue killers plus. how you vote rid of a deal by by wednesday prime minister are you expecting a huge need for a very. crucial u.k. government cabinet meeting as european leaders begin a discussion about the future of brics it also ahead. from beyond the grave the final thoughts of the world renowned fear reticle physicist stephen hawking. and his for the milwaukee brewers just see who wins away now from baseball's world series the l.a. dodgers for nothing to take seriously.

al jazeera has learned from the attorney general's office in turkey that forensic experts have found evidence of jamal. turkish investigators spent more than twelve hours searching for clues after finally being allowed into the saudi consulate in istanbul on monday investigators have also been given permission to search the saudi consuls home that's a separate building the u.s. secretary of state might pump. peo has now landed in saudi arabia to meet king selma u.s. media reports say the saudis are considering publicly admitting but ashaji was killed when an unofficial interrogation quote went wrong and in the last few minutes the un's human rights chief is calling for the lifting of diplomatic immunity for saudi consulate staff to allow a full investigation let's go live now to istanbul and our correspondent charles stratford who is outside the saudi consulate this talk all diplomatic immunity being lifted charles how significant is that.

i think it's fair to say it's hugely significant because one would think it would give greater access to a more independent investigation that would not necessarily involve the saudi side of this joint investigative team it would potentially keep greater access to for example the consul residence and to the consulate building this world give access to opening up documents and potentially a whole host of things that could be investigated and looked at in far greater depth and with more with more freedom so it is if if huge significance i will say that certainly in the last few minutes some interesting lines coming out of. the turkish president received to want to talking to journalists after his weekly speech to party members saying that the investigation was looking into

toxic material we don't have any more details on that and whether in fact this means that they have found evidence of toxic material or whether in fact there are suspicions of toxic material being used. so as you say this investigation continues we're expecting the team to be back here at the consulate later today we did expect them to go on to the consul. the cultural residence and then of course there are those vehicles that need to be inspected this announcement from the un human rights chief though as they say has huge ramifications and this is what a spokesman said. in view of the seriousness of the situation surrounding the disappearance of mystical shortly the high commissioner believes ian viol ability or immunity of the relevant premises and officials bestowed by treaties such as the one thousand nine hundred sixty three vienna convention on consular relations should be waived immediately. under international law

both of force disappearance and an extrajudicial killing are very serious crimes and immunity should not be used to impede investigations into what happened and who is responsible so charles given what was going on in the building behind you yesterday last night and a little earlier today what do you think the focus of the inquiry is as of this hour. it's very difficult to say at this stage peter we certainly know something what witnesses were saying last night people who were here on the ground as that investigation went forward in the consulate behind me we know that there are a least a couple of trucks that were filled with what was reported to be rubble and even soil suggesting some sort of excavation had gone on we know that dogs were used as well that we understand that a dog from the guard was taken away for analysis also we could

presume that the intensity of this investigation is only going to increase in the next hours and indeed the coming days and certainly if the united nations human rights chief has her way then we can expect a greater intensity of inspecting and investigating some of the even the personal belongings of diplomats solve people saudis that worked inside the consulate and had access to those vehicles as well as i think you reported we have been told that we understand that the results of this investigation are not expected for at least a couple more days and that will have to inevitably i guess chelles be overlaid by what the u.s. secretary of state mike pompei o brings with him when he travels to turkey from riyadh either last thing tonight today off first thing earlier early tomorrow morning. that's right i mean to be very interesting we

wait to see what the u.s. secretary of state is going to say after his meetings in ankara. but it's fascinating to watch what's happened in the last day also with what some analysts are saying seems to be a side lighting of the crown prince mohammed bin solomon pop a meeting the king will play a meeting of the king solomon today in riyadh and as you say there has been this these these reports in the u.s. media that the saudis may well be preparing themselves for releasing a statement saying that this interrogation went wrong of the stick associate and that it was not officially sanctioned certainly speaking to analysts in saudi watches here that they say that that seems totally conceivable that for example the fifteen main that the turkish government sources leaked to the media here is them saying we're part of this hit squad saudi watches are saying it's completely inconceivable that those men could not have been sanctioned if they indeed they

flew here on these two private jets so it's going to be very interesting to see if we're going to see if this sidelining and indeed even punishment all for the crown prince for what certainly international diplomats in saudi watches are describing as increasing reckless behavior to huge diplomatic crisis for the saudis and also is there another dynamic in that shell's which is this mr erdogan clearly wants a resolution to this he wants the saudis to formulate a response that he can live with that he can accept the response that he gets might be some way distant from that. yes very interesting there are people who are going to look at the press look at the fact that over a number of days we saw these leaks from government sources to pro-government media here that was interpreted as the turkish government trying to build as much of

a consensus as they could without before releasing more evidence there are people who are saying the mystery of one does not want a full on hate to hate confrontation with saudi arabia despite the severity of these allegations being made to let's not forget the saudi arabia is the largest of all the gulf states investors in this country has invested billions of dollars and of course to he is suffering. economically at the moment those investments are very important for turkish jobs here one thing's for sure is that mr other one seems to be in a very strong position but whether in fact we will see the kind of sanctions or indeed the punishments that many people have spoken about if indeed these allegations are one hundred percent proven true that that remains to be seen charles thank you very much. well more now on the latest on that investigation from jamal sheil also in istanbul. 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 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 cure attempt to tamper with its. 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 acquiring 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 snots know of the operation when it's apparently involved two of crown prince mohammed bin son months personal bodyguards and where is jamal body a full investigation would look at all of the cars that left the consulate from the time that shogi entered up until even not 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 an event occurred so i would look at that i would look actually at presumably the saudis have cleaned everything weird. 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 commode. 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 true all of this coupled with the fact that the interests of regional and super powers are stake could mean that we may never know all the answers. it's why people will be monitoring closely to see what evidence turkish authorities will reveal to the public once they complete their investigations. and you stumble. well as we've been saying today the u.s. president donald trump suggested jamal khashoggi was murdered by quote rogue killers he made those comments following his phone conversation with saudi arabia's king cell man but many politicians and former u.s. officials are rejecting that explanation mike hanna has more from washington.

president trump arrived in florida to view hurrican damage and at the same time reports began to filter out to bow to solve the admission but the journalist was killed by mistake in an unsanctioned abduction attempt that the president take knowledge hearing about the reports we were getting very close with saudi arabia with your age and they want you to get 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 will be back and very much by that will say i heard everything but nobody knows it's an official report so far just the rules of the reporting from you know really in the day president trump floated the theory of what may have happened at the saudi consulate it sounded to me like maybe that if it rose hillary oh no we're going to try getting to the bottom of this very this narrative also pushed by some saudi media was greeted with anger by members of congress the

democratic senator from maryland sent out this tweet president trump. in that case 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 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 to listen for erratic actions from mohamad been solomon 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 cancelled. mike hanna al-jazeera washington. ok let's step back for the next minute or so and take a look at how this story unfolded jamal went missing shortly after entering the saudi consulate in istanbul on october the second he went there to pick up some papers he was getting married his fiance was waiting outside now the next day the saudi authorities confirmed he had disappeared but they also said he had left the consulate turkish security sources later revealed they had information he was

tortured and killed inside the building allegations dismissed by the saudis as quote baseless lies a week after that disappearance international pressure mounted on saudi arabia the u.s. president donald trump warning as we've heard of severe punishment if saudi arabia was indeed to blame security video was released showing her showed she entering the consulate days after saudi officials that the cameras there were not working on that particular day king solomon then got involved speaking to the turkish president. in a phone call on sunday saying no one could undermine the strength of their relationship and as we've been hearing here on the news hour in the past few hours a joint investigation team entered the consulate let's bring in matthew bryza he's a senior fellow at the atlantic council's eurasia center and global energy center he's also former white house official he joins us from istanbul matthew bryza good to talk to you again getting rid of diplomatic immunity and asking for it to be

lifted to different things what do you think will happen with that one particular issue. well i would guess the saudis will resist fee for a fever surely the lifting of diplomatic immunity but were that to happen that is that is quite a dramatic step and i've never heard of anything like that in terms of getting access first of all to a diplomatic compound like has already happened in the investigation and once you lift diplomatic immunity you may have opened up a pandora's box that could potentially lead to criminal prosecution of the accomplishment of accomplices of the alleged criminals or of the fifteen member saudi hit team so that would be a huge development in this in this case. meeting king solomon walk me through what you think that conversation will have been or will be. well

first of all you know secretary pompei zero is a straight arrow i mean you know finished first in his class at the u.s. military academy plainspoken honest person is what he's known for i think he's going to press for an explanation and my guess is would he would say your highness this is a terrible situation either the crown prince ordered this killing which is unfathomably bad for saudi arabia in our relations or if it really was a rogue operation which seems impossible we have a huge factional problem within your government means that the crown prince has lost all control and where do we go from here how do we rebuild our relationship so once he knows what the what the truth is then they've got to figure out whether there is any way at all to manage the optics political optics which there may not be in which case then the conversation will have to shift to how do we maintain a semblance of normalcy in u.s. saudi relations how do we minimize the chances of destroying it if in the next

twenty four hours so the arabiya in effect admits we killed him we maybe didn't mean to kill him we maybe didn't set out to kill him but he ended up dead what happens at that point. someone has to be punished president trump said it killing someone by accident is well that's that's still a crime that's you know manslaughter. you've got to answer as well what the heck were fifteen people doing doing in the consulate simply for an interrogation you need one person or two if you're going to do good cop bad cop so the story just doesn't really necessarily hold together but if that's what happens if that's a story that comes out. then i think. they'll be an attempt to try to i think president will want to get beyond this but someone will have to be punished so it'll have to be the consul general here in istanbul and those fifteen people or

the crown prince himself and. who gets punished i think is going to be determined by the extent to which this international fervor is upheld and much of that is going to come from your coverage and other people's media coverage does that mean that donald trump the european union and of course the turkish leadership they have to face another uncomfortable truth. this the saudis lie to everyone about what happened when it happened where it happened they lied about the kill schooled that may yet be proven be showed be admitted to having been a kill squad they lied about him leaving the building even though there was badly really badly doc to videotape running on social media was somebody at the time could the wrong way around and they did some stupid stupid graphics designs with it to make it look as if he was leaving the building and he clearly was and that's that's a separate discussion but at the center of that they've got to admit and accept that riyadh lies. without question i mean that is the one thing that's

absolutely true is that the saudi regime was absolutely false throughout this and you know had had their story had a semblance of truth that mr castro left but disappeared. it's the duty of the consulate of saudi arabia to be all over that that that issue pressing the turkish government vigorously in private in public everywhere possible on al-jazeera may be that now that al-jazeera but an international media for an answer what happened to our citizen who has close connections to the royal family never was that instead it was full defensive mode even to the point of that strange how to be article a couple of days ago that threatened retaliation against the united states which was then pulled back so i think the king realizes what an utter disaster this is he's taking control now out of semi-retirement of this whole process and i think this live shows that this vision twenty thirty is in grave jeopardy because the

credibility of the government of saudi arabia is in such jeopardy as well this is a major historical inflection point for saudi arabia briefly briefly please matthew bryza the u.n. human high commission for human rights is saying a good starting point it would be if everyone went completely public with everything they know as fact what are the chances that will actually happen. and i think there's no chance of that i mean it's certainly the right thing to say from a human rights perspective put you know if nothing else i mean the way intelligence is gathered is something that all states want to keep hidden and so when you tell what you know in the case of turkey you're saying something about how you know things so i think there is no chance of that that morally that is a noble stance matthew bryza thank you very much. still to come here in the news for you including. never having had

before john all joins us live now from london jonah she's going to try and rally the political troops easier said than done i guess. yes well arguably easier done today than twenty four hours ago or over the weekend peter looked to get a sense of the fragility of reason may's cabinet consider that on monday night last night ahead of this critical meeting no fewer than a third of her senior cabinet ministers gathered together in the commons behind me over pieces of pizza discussing a concerted effort amongst themselves to force the reason made to change course in the direction of negotiations were taking they were particularly concerned about that over the weekend with several considering it was said resigning now on monday afternoon she addressed the house of commons and when some way towards allaying

their fears for now how did she do that well it gets pretty technical pretty wordy there was a thing called the backstop for the backstop that involves northern ireland the british territory of northern ireland being included in e.u. structures while trade negotiations go on over the course of the next few years to ensure that that border in the on the island of ireland between northern ireland the up republic of ireland remain open that's key to both sides she has said we're not accepting that it is an infringement of the integrity of the united kingdom would have none of that and then her own proposal for that backstop keeping the whole of the u.k. within the e.u. structures whilst trade negotiations go on that she promised would be time limited a concern for many of the progress it is in her cabinet who feel that it limits the ukase ability to do trade deals outside of the e.u. so she can manage somehow to allay their concerns on both of those points the cabinet meeting shortly over should end with some semblance of unity for her to

take off to brussels on wednesday but it is a fragile unity indeed confused well here's my report on events over the last couple of days which may or may know. make. a deal by by wednesday prime minister are you expecting a cabinet meeting or a. british prime minister to resign may you find yourself fighting for a brick deal on multiple fronts this was her message to parliament on monday so much of these negotiations are necessarily technical but the reason this all matters is because it affects the future of our country it affects jobs and livelihoods in every community it is about what kind of country we are and about our faith in our democracy of course it is frustrating that almost all of the remaining points of disagreement are focused on how we manage a scenario which both sides hope should never come to pass and which if it does will only be temporary we cannot let this disagreement derail the prospects of

a good deal and leave us with a no deal outcome that no one wants. on sunday talks with the e.u. had seemed close to agreement on the terms of britain's exit but largely over attempts to avoid a hard border on the island of ireland they collapsed mrs may's plan to keep the whole u.k. inside the e.u. customs union for the duration of talks on a future trade deal met opposition from pro briggs's ministers and factions in her own party who complain it would limit britain's ability to strike trade deals outside the e.u. . the e.u. meanwhile insists the u.k. honor its earlier commitment to keep the territory of northern ireland inside the single market as a backstop should trade talks fail. to resume a's unionist partners in northern ireland responded by threatening to withdraw their support for her minority government. it was always going to be a difficult week for tourism a in the british government but it's become much

harder hard to see how she could achieve any sort of unity within her own cabinet with senior ministers said to be considering their positions over the laces disposals hard to see how she can achieve much at all with e.u. leaders in brussels on wednesday night and hard to see frankly how any meaningful deal can emerge at all in present circumstances between the u.k. and the e.u. . and there's increasing talk of a no deal scenario britain crashing out of the e.u. with nothing but world trade organization rules to govern future relations time to panic you a little worried be patient your patient ok be patient not yet according to the e use chief breaks it negotiate or perhaps all is not lost. ok journalist so your report made things crystal clear for us ahead of the e.u. meeting tomorrow angle or merkel saying look don't crash at any price it doesn't

she's basically saying it doesn't have to come to that but other parts of the e.u. saying we're getting closer and closer to that's the. and of mixed messages coming out there. what i mean or as i read it there is a sense in it leave it within e.u. circles now that this is not a time to panic but whilst the prospect of a no deal scenario does now perhaps loom larger than it has done in this entire process they're careful to say these various officials and voices from different delegations that look there is still time in hand there is still time to reach a deal and they're determined to try and do that because neither side wants this no deal scenario to prevail it's going to be incredibly difficult what the u.k. is taking there to brussels on wednesday night now is a demand that eight u.k. wide option be time limited well that makes it a temporary insurance policy that's not much of insured but you should insurance policy at all and in addition to that that the drop its second rate demand for

northern ireland to remain as a backstop to that backstop again why would they do that whilst putting a time limit on the original backstop the talks have a long way to go yet i think the crucial point here is not whether she gets a fixed immediately on wednesday or thursday but simply whether the e.u. is willing to talk about these matters further down the line at this stage at this stage it looks like they will be journal we'll talk later i'm sure in the meantime thanks very much. now in a few moments we'll have the weather for you with everton folks but also still ahead here on the al-jazeera news out these two million children face death from malnutrition in the democratic republic of congo just one of the stories we'll bring you on this world food day plus all your imagination. your. predictions of a race of super human beings in the colonization of foreign planets stephen hawkings final thoughts released. fifty years on we'll hear from two of the athletes involved in one of sport's most iconic moments.

watching the al-jazeera news. these are your top stories so far al jazeera has learned from the attorney general's office in turkey that forensic experts have found evidence of the murder of jamal khashoggi turkish investigators spent more than twelve hours searching for clues after finally being allowed into the saudi consulates in istanbul moved their attention to the home of the saudi consul a separate building the u.s. secretary of state mike pompei o has landed in talks with king cell man and the saudi crown prince mr pompei it was sent by donald trump as he suggested rogue killers could have murdered mr who showed. us media reports the saudis are considering publicly admitting that he was killed on official interrogation went wrong. let's take a closer look now at. life and career his dorsetshire body. for more

than thirty years jamal khashoggi enjoyed a privileged position within the saudi royal circle in large part echoing the kingdom's views but also taking risks operating from within to push the boundaries when it came to reform that risk taking would eventually draw the anger of the kingdom's heir apparent. the one time insider crossing the red line hits so skillfully tried in the past daring to criticize the crown prince mohammed bin salma i still see him as a reformer but he is getting old poet within his hand and it would be much better for him to allow a bidding space for a critic for saudi intellectuals for the right to sort of the media to debate the most important needed transformation going in the country. past wasn't without controversy an advisor to saudi intelligence chief turki al-faisal helping saudi intelligence in afghanistan alongside the much i had seen on osama bin laden an

advocate of political islam through the muslim brotherhood but he also championed reforms even praised the crown prince for enacting them but last year he went into self-imposed exile in the united states for comments that angered the saudi leader . seen here with the missing journalist last year has known and worked with shoji for at least thirty years he was not necessarily a dissident i disagree with that description he was a loyal saudi citizen he had his own vision of what the country should be doing that type of freedom needs the type of reform it needs and maybe in the final analysis that's what got him in trouble because of it jamal khashoggi hasn't been seen for two weeks in that time the world's attention has turned to the activities of the kingdom and more broadly the arab world that has questioned all their governments virtually do anything they want with there their citizens. put them in

jail they deny them work sometimes they take away their citizenship of that process of widespread continuing deep autocracy and abuse of power across the arab world is not addressed then the death of her children will be doubly tragic because a saudi journalist with a platform a columnist for the washington post regular spots in u.s. and international t.v. channels almost two million followers on twitter that someone so high profile could vanish without a trace is shocking it will also have a chilling effect on those who wish to follow his example dorsett jabari al-jazeera . and just to pick up on the point that was mentioned at the top of the news our program for you we're getting more reports confirming what charles was talking about the turkish media the a.p. wire service quoting the turkish president richard as saying turkish police have

been searching for quote toxic materials at the consulate what you're looking at right now is the gateway into the home of the saudi consul general that's on the the back side of a crescent that goes anticlockwise from the front of the consulate building itself what does toxic materials mean we don't know the investigators telling us what toxic materials means we don't know either that dovetails together however with the broader investigation we've seen cleaners going in it was quite surreal that a cleaning team going in to make sure one assumes that the consulate building was clean presentable for some sort of joint investigative team who had yet to go in to the building there is this conversation going on over the next few hours between the u.s. secretary of state mike pompei o and here it is king cell man in riyadh from there the u.s. secretary of state might pompei o will fly to turkey he needs as far as mr erdogan

is concerned of course to tell mr precisely what he wants to hear because people have been searching for a diplomatic exit so they can take the temperature out of this diplomatic crisis because be under no illusion that is precisely what this is because also we were talking a little earlier to matthew bryza who is very well connected with this kind of area of diplomacy when diplomacy overlaps with politics and overlaps with big business and he was saying the reality is as far as the u.s. is concerned the u.s. will have to recalibrate what it thinks about the saudi get chewed towards the u.s. we've had donald trump in the past. eighteen hours talking about it might have been the work of rogue killers nobody is saying that that is even a probability let alone a possibility but as mr pompei o heads for turkey he has to interpret the conversation he has with king sell man to offset that against what mr erdogan is

saying that the police have been searching for quotes toxic materials in the consulate building more on that forensic aspect to this ongoing inquiry as soon as we can. the forthcoming u.s. midterm elections will feature a large number of women running for office for the first time this includes one candidate seeking to become the first female native american ever elected to the u.s. congress world reynolds' now from new mexico. debbie holland is running for congress and hoping to make history never having had a native american woman in congress congress has never heard a voice like mine campaigning at new mexico highlands university holland who is a member of the look guna pueblo native nation said her number one issue is protecting the environment should also always be money should be a great. love for the way and respect for people's souls here.

holland is part of a large influx of democrats women minorities and other marginalized groups seeking office many for the first time i think representation matters a tremendous amount and i think diversity really matters and so yes all those voices and the large number of women who are running for office i think we can change the trajectory of our country the new mexico district holland seeks to represent includes part of the city of albuquerque and tilts heavily democratic polls show her nine percentage points ahead of her republican opponent janice arnold jones who in an interview seemed to question holland's native heritage but she is a military brat just like i am and so you know i could get it evokes images that that she was raised on a reservation holland supporters say if she's elected she would bring a unique perspective to washington not only would she bring the contemporary

information and knowledge that she needs to make decisions to all of it also have this grounding of of time and grounding of making sure that this is that she makes are centered. for the future across the country native americans are demanding a stronger political voice according to the national congress of american indians more than one hundred native american candidates are running for federal or state office in the u.s. this year graduate student rename undergone listen to holland speech and came away impressed i'm in a minority hispanic minority well i'm not native american she speaks for me too it's up to us to stand together united and kind of push forward for what we believe because we are the majority a candidate like none before in an election season like no other robert oulds al-jazeera las vegas new mexico palestinian children living under israeli
