on october twenty nine but the picture that spade thing here painted here by the investigators is giving quite a clear idea of what went wrong basically there was a lot of technical issues with that same plane for four days already one particular element of the angle of attack sensor which they call it it's near the cockpit where the airflow is being measured against the nose of the plane that was not functioning and basically what this plane this is a very new seven three seven max eight plane what that plane does it automatically pushes the nose down and that's what's been happening for days already during this the flight with this plane so. they are why sorry what. you are listening for i get the noise of the press conference on my ear right now so basically what happened is the pilots actually turn this off and they flew manually which meant that they could actually fly the plane despite this
1:01 pm
really serious problem for a couple of days already the last flight the fatal flight the pilots made a different decision and they didn't fly it manually with the very tragic result basically all right thank you for that update from jakarta. still had said on al-jazeera we'll have the latest on the projected results from the racially charged us senate race in mississippi. everything is that risk if we do not. and the stark warning from the u.n. not countries need to triple their efforts to slow down global warming. from the waves of the sounds. to the contours of the east. hello once again welcome to another look at the international forecasts are still

on the top stories on al-jazeera the white house says it's unlikely president donald trump will meet the saudi crown prince of the upcoming g. twenty summit in argentina meanwhile the head of the cia made a briefing on wednesday on u.s. relations with saudi arabia. into a complaint accusing saudis crown prince of human rights violations hundreds protested. visit. as part of his tour of arab nations. the us president donald trump says he may cancel a meeting with russian president vladimir putin at the g. twenty summit in argentina it's a response to russian maritime forces opening fire on ukrainian naval vessels earlier this week. the u.s. secretary of state will meet mexico's incoming foreign minister to discuss asylum
1:05 pm
seekers on their joint border the white house says the two will work out a deal later this week to keep migrants in mexico while their claims for u.s. asylum are considered tension mounted on sunday in the mexican border town of when us off already has fired tear gas on asylum seekers on the other side who are trying to cross over. from tijuana. i you could safely say that we're at the moment with the luckiest people the gold in the caravan of central americans trying to get to the united states rinty quanah right on the border people are not far from here about five thousand seven hundred sports center horridly converted into an open air camp sleeping rough in tents the lucky ones another's of them just under the stars it's getting pretty cold in the plunder at the nights right now but there's about one thousand five and five hundred other people from the caravan but local organizations and in this case the church have put up they put
1:06 pm
a roof over their heads and they're getting at least some meals we've got the kitchen here all the up stairs rooms of this church the lady just behind me who's making flout the hard tacos delicious here is saying that she basically trouble for a month in mexico sleeping rough the daughter got seriously ill and had to go into hospital and she's finally made it here to the border and discovered some sort of sanctuary there's a couple of other families here that say exactly the same it's actually a baby here one of the two that's been bored during the time that the caravans been moving through mexico so what's next for these people they still hopeful they still have the dream like root of being reunited perhaps with her children in the united states of us trying to get to the other side for opportunities with work to escape poverty or violent code president trump is determined that these people are going to get across is labeled most of the criminals also u.s.
1:07 pm
asylum law isn't on the side of those that are fleeing poverty it says that that's not a valid reason for the u.s. to give them sanctuary so it seems like a lot of people here are going to be disappointed even as they go for their interviews to check if they are eligible for asylum and stateside some people are starting to head back to their countries of origin. basically they've had enough of the very hot conditions in the other camp is. a sticking out just hoping really at this point per america that something's going to tell you when u.s. republican cindy hyde smith as they projected winner in the senate runoff election campaign highlighted the state's. people. would happily attend a public hanging if invited to see face the african-american. john hendren joining us from jackson mississippi so now that we have
1:08 pm
a projected winner what's the reaction. will hide smith said the reason that she won was that mississippians knew her heart and by that i think she meant that they knew when she made those comments that she that's not exactly what she meant what she contends is that she was speaking to a reporter and she was trying to say she would go anywhere with him even to a public hanging but obviously that came off entirely badly in a state where five thousand african-american men were lynched here after the civil war and those are wounds that still remain she also had taken a picture in a confederate battle cap that rubbed a lot of people the wrong way but in the end mississippians vote voted as mississippians often do for the republican candidate and put her ahead by what looks like eight or nine percentage points now either way history would have been made tonight she she is now elected is the first female senator from the state of
1:09 pm
mississippi mike espy would have been the first african-american senator since reconstruction that was back in the nineteenth century after the civil war so either way history would have been made to night and she was the one who made it and has there been any reaction from the aspect to this the fate. yes indeed he just gave a gracious concession speech in which he said that they had built a massive grassroots movement and in fact he did something here in mississippi that has not been done by a democrat in quite some time and that is he ran a credible campaign that no democrat has been elected to a statewide office in the state of mississippi since one thousand nine hundred eighty two the race looked close enough on the eve of the election that donald trump the president of united states came here and made chew stops in order to. speak for hyde smith and it may have been that that really helped him out this was
1:10 pm
a state that voted for trump by eighteen percentage points in two thousand and sixteen a very solidly republican state and it's it is amazing that s.b. really ran a campaign where he was even a contender but he certainly got a lot of help from hyde smith who made a number of gaffes among them she also talked about voter suppression making a joke saying perhaps it wasn't so bad to make it a little more difficult for liberals to vote that is another thing that has rubbed people the wrong way at a time when there is a lawsuit in many states by civil rights groups claiming that there has been voter suppression but in the end she said she won she thanked the president and she said she won because mississippians knew her heart knew what she really meant. and expose. hurts. because.
1:11 pm
it. the taliban claimed responsibility for the incident. some syrian refugees have been killed detained or forced into the military when they returned home that's according to lebanon's minister of state for refugee affairs he says of the nearly syrians forced into lebanon during the war twelve thousand have returned to serious and moscow in damascus have been encouraging refugees to repatriate but rights groups. enough possible persecution. what we are sure about is nearly twenty people have been killed and there are three cases that i've personally documented i spoke with their relatives and received their photos these people are scared there might be revenge or they won't be allowed to return to syria especially because they're refugees in lebanon this is in addition to cases of kidnapping detention of men who have been forced to join assad's army

risk if we do not buckle up and prevent. from the catastrophic risks that the world is facing today when our leather is one of the authors off that un report he says there is a large gap between what countries intended on doing to lower global emissions and what's actually happening. there's very sluggish progress in reducing global emissions in fact we had two thousand seventeen was a bad year. in their emissions have actually gone up so it's we precisely the opposite direction from where we would need to go to limit global warming so what we're headed to is indeed something of around three degrees until the end of the century if we don't really bend the curve but that's but actually there would be more warming in pipeline so we could really see further increasing there after that
1:18 pm
and that certainly would mean that we would see a fundamental deviation from the word as we know words with further increasing sea levels much more and more extreme events floods heat waves draws. in unprecedented scale so this is really a fundamental change from the state of the bird that civilizations have. gotten adapted to work. as first fully digitised restaurant has opened in nepal robots named ginger are now serving customers at this cafe in katmandu a local tech company developed the robots after researching the design in china and japan or you can read more about that story and the day's other top stories on our website the address for that is al-jazeera dot com.

1:22 pm
twitter and you tube for today's episode of the stream. for millions of afghans the grinding war is now sadly a part of the daily routine from indiscriminate bombings by the taliban and i still to deadly air raids by afghan and u.s. forces civilians and change how they go about their day just to survive although security forces eventually managed. to get tax remain common place in the afghan capital so we can go a suicide bomb blast killed dozens of people out of religious gathering to mark the birth anniversary of prophet muhammad. nobody ever heard of any attack on prophet muhammad saree in the past that's knocking on prophet muhammad ceremony is an inhuman act a human being never commit such an act and all those who are behind this clearly they are the enemy of the enemy of the qur'an the enemy of the prophets and the enemy of this nation. in recent weeks the taliban and i and so have stepped up
1:23 pm
attacks in the regions that had been comparatively peaceful thousands of living in the provinces of. fled their homes after deadly ambushes that surprised afghan security forces many has are as say they have been forgotten by the government so with the war bogged down in an apparent stalemate is there any hope for peace more on this i'm joined from geneva by sure enough kasi and al jazeera journalist she's covering a meeting with you an afghan leaders an international diplomats looking at ways to end the war bully a lot of money is the media and technology entrepreneur in the afghan capital kabul he launched reportedly gotten that it's a new site that aims to broaden coverage of issues affecting afghanistan also in kabul is that the award that she recently ran for office in afghanistan's parliamentary elections and is an architect and entrepreneur and completing our line up from kabul is. he's a freelance journalist who was extensively covered political and cultural developments in afghanistan welcome everyone to this stream no ali i will start
1:24 pm
with you though as a couple resident i know you're well aware of what i'm about to show but i want to give our audience a look into what life has been like in parts of afghanistan and this is just over the last few weeks so take a look at my screen here afghanistan life under attack in this is coming to us from our colleagues at al jazeera dot com a rolling tally of the attacks one hundred eighty four nearly two thousand people killed this is since january twenty sixth team in this calendar here shows just those and you know and to really highlight what that looks like this link leads. here these are those attacks in detailed format and scroll down to just over the last couple weeks november twentieth november twenty third and november twenty sixth convoy of police officers attacked on its way to a district in western province and then today before show time this news this from the new york times three u.s. soldiers killed by explosion in afghanistan and this was near in bosnia city how do
1:25 pm
you make sense of what we've seen recently. it's obviously a scare tactic so the idea is that these groups whether it be tall or ball and whether it be diet so for instance what the clip that showed the tack on the prophet muhammad's birthday it specifically shows what they're trying to do and what they're trying to do is to say that no one is safe not at any time not at any place and not for any event and as we've seen it's not only a tax rate so so we have attacks on major cities kabul jalalabad in the east but we've also seen districts and provinces nearly fall or fall to the taliban in the past few months. these are major major issues because essentially what they're doing is showing their might and showing people that now wherever you go you're not see that that whatever you're trying to do you can be targeted you can be attacked
1:26 pm
it's not one group of people or another group of people or one city or one province or one district it's spread out throughout the country all kinds of people and you know just last month i was in greece in the morea refugee camps and you know there i saw on refugees in abysmal conditions in greece on the island of lesbos you know who were fleeing this exact kind of violence and who. is in in geneva right now and one of the issues that they should be talking about is this idea of afghan refugees and then being deported from the e.u. and turkey being deported back to a war zone you know we've seen attacks on the entrance to the airport where these people will be coming in from. and it's awful thank you for sharing that snippet of a life for so many and afghanistan you're hearing what he said there in that the idea of these attacks is to show that no one is safe would you agree with that assessment. i think i think.
1:27 pm
entire communities are under attack. recently with the new. terrorists attacking those who are civilians they just go after everyone we just saw as you mentioned and you showed the pictures we back there was an attack on the holy prophet muhammad but. it was. a sunni. all in ma. gathering the same. couple in. where the other communities of afghans are getting so there's a feeling that everyone has been attacked in afghanistan. and i think the terrorists and insurgents are going after. a very late.
1:28 pm
strategy. which. was just part of i think their strategy to tell the world that they can target everyone and to tell down they are going after everyone and of course showing the government. but i think we are not at a point to say that you know we are defeated. or we have to lose hope that there is a future for afghanistan while there are a number of attacks at the same time there is life going on in there there is a vibrant community. in different parts of the country who are just. trying to do better life. across the. here's the reality and also the hope in what you're saying there and then and so i want to bring attention to our community who is weighing. and here this is a tweet we got from someone. asylum seekers and they write please cover the
1:29 pm
humanitarian crisis unfolding in afghanistan where the taliban have seized control of the safe this districts killing hundreds and forcing thousands of men women and children to flee these are the districts that had remained a safe haven for the past decade so i want to give this to you because we're seeing from people online who are saying that yes this is including this violence is including everyone including those who are in areas that are relatively thought as safe i want to share with you a video comment from someone whose family is in one of those areas and this is what she told the stream about the. often brutal massacre of her son was in school and we heard from families who friends that had been in the jury province they described the situation as it was trying to transfer their life in every direction . into the mountains and amongst those fleeing was also my grandmother. contacts because the two communication towers which is true for the type on after days of
1:30 pm
uncertainty about the safety of my grandmother who only discovered that she was safe to a new school. and who find that she was after being in her village but sure enough she mentions people running barefoot in the winter she showed a picture of the woman she mentioned her grandmother there in this with hash tag hoary under a tree attack and you can see the picture of her there to talk to us about what we are seeing in these areas that were relatively safe so now situation it up. it's not just the areas that you know. there are also. there are not or. there but now what we hear. the other one keep denying the fact that they have their attack in these areas quoting to them it's someone else attacking areas now it's
1:31 pm
a very complicated one we can not really gauge who is who even when it comes to our troops we cannot say whether these are the taliban or it's eisel fighters it's just a vague complicated very fluid situation we cannot really confirm who is attacking i mean it's an overall situation and it's on right now where some people say are the districts are in the taliban what others say i still fighting in those areas and then i sort of the other one of my other so it's like a complete but what's what's the sad reality. or something she showed a picture of her and i mean. looking at her age is very you know i don't know i think it's just a dire situation for everyone where there seems like all these bizarre hours are now being targeted so. the overall situation i think it just does not limit to. why they've been attacking a certain group or
1:32 pm
a certain community or certain say it's an overall situation in the country right now. is this this we should follow us up in that video coming in this tweet she says central has our districts under the attack of the taliban are an iron wall between democracy and extremism and they hold the fragile democracy in afghanistan more than buffer zones they have been the most fertile grounds for democracy that what do you make of shock with this comment there. well actually. they can say that the terrorism reached every place and. every corner of afghanistan has been effected by terrorism. this has aurally there is a pressure on who is a part project leader is or is a buck so we have a month measurable and different army of afghanistan so not only has our every tribe has been effected by terms. i see you nodding your head there
1:33 pm
i think this is something that people forget because. i think about a month or two ago i actually wrote a story for al-jazeera about a neighborhood in west kabul which is predominantly and she of being targeted. by forces claiming to be diet and at the same time we saw the city of jalalabad one of the biggest cities in the country in the east predominantly pashtoon area that was just as targeted you know and for weeks for attacks including on a midwife training center so i think what we have to understand is that this conflict in compas is the whole country everyone is being targeted everyone is falling victim to it and i think the world sort of needs to wake up because so much of the world is here whether it's through international aid organizations or whether their soldiers are here at one point so much of the world is here you know they're all meeting in geneva but the reality is no one is paying attention to this
1:34 pm
conflict and what's going on and the fact that literally thirty two million people are affected by. really a lot would you agree with on. no one is trying to know what is the watching what's going on i don't. want to leave of course the entire language and entire communities of. cities are under attack. by the fall of unbiased and other other groups but there's a slight difference. because i think the odds are. different like a minority both in terms of an ethnic minority and caring in minorities because they are the only. minority in afghanistan and that's why the sensitivity. or knowledge . and i think i think i think the afghan government has been sensitive about this. because. the protection of. like a very minority has been important to the afghan government and at the same time.
1:35 pm
fall upon even being so cautious about the law because of that's a very an issue sensitivity that exists but with simply i think that calculus and started to change from be thought of on site as well because i see the. statements after their first efforts acting job. the entire like other safe area under the control of the afghan government will be a target a military target so from that perspective i think it has been an issue that has been left and and i think the warning. by i i it's hard getting. the schools the. discourse and. gathering all the shiites and then claiming that shiites are entitled and they are
1:36 pm
targeting for the sake of islam has been a sensitive issue which has been of course under tension of the government and international. i hear you i know ali you want to jump in there for a moment well i mean i think that's the nature of the issue where ever they are unfortunately you. are a sectarian force but at the same time like if we're talking about the issue of tax then you have to you know admit that at the same time that she was under attack which was heavily under attack it was literally one of the safest neighborhoods in kabul no one ever thought that it would come to the level where sports clubs would be attacked where it would be attacked where the centers for the for the college entrance exam would be attacked at the same time we saw the city of jalalabad coming under repeated attack as well by forces also claiming to be dying so this is my point is that they're really trying to spread the war in into
1:37 pm
areas that people wouldn't have imagined before and so the question then is what to do about that how to stem that flow i want to go here to this this article written by shelia kasi your colleague kabul to seek support for afghan led peace plan in geneva talks and i'm over here to this tweet from the geneva conference on afghanistan come say hi the t.v. afghanistan twenty eighteen. talk to us about what you heard today in geneva. it was very interesting at the conference today when most talking about the war in afghanistan and how people were dying and all the attacks and the terrorist attacks and everything i had some kind of feeling over there that people are very sick and tired of talking about war and plumping people dying and women suffering lack of hospitals and many other issues people people want to move people in
1:38 pm
afghanistan now i feel you want to get ahead of the move on with other things other issues in afghanistan so there were talks about women empowerment and how they can tackle this issue and there were talks about. the major issue of drought two million people are affected and more half of half million of them are children. over two million million children are out of school and this what about that as well there is a severe acute malnutrition among children and that and it's highest well with about half million children affected by the drought so that we're talking about other things it wasn't really about terrorism the part of on the war and conflict and especially when i was talking to really educated very successful brave women of planets than at the points and and they were talking about resilience and moving forward and despite of all of that because definitely their lives are they
1:39 pm
different to anyone else's because they are living in the water there besides all the other problems that we face in the world they have double the problems because of the terrorism the war in the country so despite of that they wanted to move ahead and they wanted to still try and succeed in major sectors in afghanistan so the light today at the conference was more about how we can develop the country and how we can have reforms and just that's contributions it wasn't really a. terrorism issue because maybe because a conference was not a cloud it but. even talking one on one we're not. pleased to. hear you will get right back here is actually i saw you nodding your head there. i said just
1:40 pm
a bit that. people. are tired of war. that many people are losing their lives all the losses so people are. tired of the one death to be. the only we could be and. the peace in the peace negotiation or the peace process is. also to take initiations in this you shouldn't. talk about the peace process so yes i do. people. in security council. peace negotiations you mentioned there i want to bring up this tweet from up to korean who says the need for a viable political settlement of the long running conflict grows stronger and the prospects for stability and security in the war torn country appear elusive afghanistan is badly in need of good governance to reach political settlement so there are world powers who are interested in getting to that political settlement
1:41 pm
at least from a bird's eye view have a listen to representatives from two those world powers that are involved in separate peace talks efforts one is u.s. special envoy to afghanistan zalmay khalilzad he was speaking on november eighteenth and the other is russian foreign minister sergei lavrov speaking in moscow on november ninth during talks with the taliban i know that the government of afghanistan wants. the tal of on saying that they do not believe. that they can succeed militarily that they would like to see the problems. that remains resolved by peaceful means by political negotiations but we will reduce the problems in afghanistan can be solved soley by political means through the achievement of a national consensus with the participation of all conflicting parties. so ali do you see these as good faith efforts initiatives here what hope do you have for these talks which are separate of course. quickly going to
1:42 pm
the conference for just one second i've been really involved with the civil society delegation that was going there and they had discussions and focus groups in all of the thirty four provinces and everyone that they spoke to the first thing that they referred to was the war and the conflict and wanting a settlement to it so i think it is very much on people's mind maybe right now for political reasons or not talking about it but definitely people going there want to talk about it but in terms of this peace settlement there's a few issues with it one is that most of the sort of understanding here in kabul is that what my colleague saud wants and what president of any want seem to be two different plans and if that turns out to be true that could cause major problems for people in terms of the russian element of this i think it's kind of. maybe duplicitous that maybe that may be a strong word but we know that the russians we know that iran and we know that
1:43 pm
pakistan are supporting and helping the taliban so it just looks a little odd from here that russia seems to be taking such an interest and when russia today journalists interviewed one of their representatives the high peace council they kept talking about a u.s. withdrawal which is a very real issue that no one is talking about but the fact that the russia today journalists kept bringing this up it raised a lot of questions for people about what russia's real intent in this conference was you're not the only one who has a little bit of skepticism about some of these international player so i want to bring up this comment we got from interests out of kabul who talks about pakistan and their role how to listen to what he told the story. to the level of division of one piece the first is not on state level. was lost in some jihadi groups who sees do the interests in benefits in the or in the of course the ascription we have to get rid of that in the region the liver it's been the original countries the
