well we attended a protest friday protest and honestly so there seem to be as many journalists as protesters there but the atmosphere is still quite tense i think it's more concentrated in pockets throughout ramallah schools and universities were closed about sixty five palestinians were wounded during the demolition in the clashes with israeli soldiers this morning we have to look at the bigger picture though so this comes after five palestinians have died this week and three israelis have died this week including a baby boy who was delivered prematurely and two israeli soldiers and there is a manhunt underway for the person or people responsible for the death of those soldiers so the demolition the raids the administrative detention of hamas members the increased military presence at checkpoints and roads coming into ramallah these are all measures israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu has vowed to take in retaliation for these three deaths on the palestinian side of course there's

a lot of anger president mahmoud abbas sort of being diplomatic saying he condemns violence but also saying that there is been an atmosphere created here a lack of hope over the peace process settlers calling for his assassination that have sort of made it right for these kinds of conditions now in order to try to tamp down this situation both the west bank and israel do have mutual interests they have a vested interest in ensuring the call is kept here tomorrow president abbas is headed to jordan to meet with king hussein to discuss the situation on thursday egypt sent a delegation of its intelligence services to also discuss how to restore calm to the area as quickly as possible well will join us with the situation develops natasha thanks for joining us. australia has formally recognize west jerusalem as the capital of israel prime minister scott morrison said australia will not move

its embassy from tel aviv for no but will open a trade and defense office in jerusalem with slim majority countries including indonesia and malaysia have threatened to cancel a free trade to deal in protest the us recognized all of jerusalem as israel's capital last year a move by the un to be null and void a strategy that now recognizes western roussillon being the seat of the miss and many of the institution is government is the capital of israel which jerusalem is the capital of israel and we look forward to moving our embassy to west jerusalem when practical in support of and after final status determination was wrong because disputed prime minister in the rajapaksa has quit he was appointed seven weeks ago setting off a political crisis that without a functioning government and facing the prospect of being unable to pass next

year's budget a confusing situation which we have been l. fernandez can unpick for us live from colombo while we wonder perhaps who's in charge of the country over or behind the rajapaksa has been speaking that's right i mean for the last two weeks this country has been functioning without a government minder rajapakse and forty eight of his ministers were prevented from the court to go forward as functioning in those capacities as prime minister and cabinet so the first time we're hearing from him the rajapaksa since we heard his decision to resign as prime minister he basically has said that there was an understanding that the country would go to an election we need to quiver let's take a listen to what he had to say. i'm going to do. since i have no intention of remaining as prime minister without a general election being held and in order not to hamper the president in any way i

will resign from the position of prime minister and make way for the president's home a new covenant but you want to move already how this is affecting sort of the daily lives of those across the country because it has to be unsettling on several levels . absolutely mean as much as we've had all of this sort of legal wrangling and also you know the to ing and fro ing in parliament for the average man on the street it's a case of not knowing who he's leaders are we've had president my polish citizen as exhibit president that hasn't changed but on a day to day basis we've had two different men claiming to be prime minister we've had one of them who's been the legally sworn in prime minister been told by the courts that he can function so for people on a day to day basis the decisions of the workings of government pretty much at a standstill there was basically a vote in parliament that stopped the prime minister and his ministers from using

any budgetary allocations in their offices of their respective ministries this meant any big sort of decisions all were frozen nothing could go ahead in terms of sort of the day to day functions of department ministries all in a state of limbo while the people themselves are kind of at sixes and sevens wondering you know what happens to the country so you do have those who think that yes an election is the way to go to resolve this whole sort of this conflict that we've seen in the last couple of weeks others who say who are critical of the way that the president mind the rajapaksa have tried to sort of use the powers of the ledger to vet institutions and force an election so that's where things stand so hill for the moment we'll leave it there of course and follow any developments with you as the day progresses thank you. well plenty more ahead here on the al-jazeera news hour including a scramble to get aid into yemen through its main port city of data but more

fighting is threatening a truce also taking the brakes it battle home after crunch talks with the european union just what has the british prime minister achieved in brussels we'll have the details and in sport the toronto raptors brought back down to earth in portland paul have the details. there's been fighting on the outskirts of the city of the data less than forty eight hours after government time hootie representatives agree to a cease fire in the area video. network appears to show strikes by the saudi u.a.e. coalition which is supporting government forces witnesses say at least one woman was killed and another two severely injured. this is blood aggression a violation of the cease fire these are. the ones in critical condition hang in

there. he said about three women the airstrike targeted the residence right here look at the blood look at the shop not. trying to promote marriage see. the war he's out the front lines civilians areas. strike london just as the u.n. special envoy to yemen was briefing the security council on the recent agreement talks in sweden has described the deal as a significant step forward he has thank those who supported the talks including the saudi crown prince. was the person in charge of saudi arabia's military when it began its air strikes in yemen. diplomatic headed to james bays has more. the day our veteran interim peace stealing yemen the u.n. negotiator at the talks warned the security council there was still a long and difficult road ahead mr president i also come before you today with the

call of course our collective achievements this week were indeed i hope you will agree a significant step forward but what's in front of us the king to ask and those over . in the context of such negotiations or realizes at the end of negotiations that the hard work is only about beginning. the u.n. senior humanitarian official warned against complacency he said a quarter of a million people were on the edge of a phase five food emergency the technical term for that stage is catastrophe so i can confirm again what humanitarian agencies have known for a long time a terrible tragedy is unfolding in yemen and it's getting worse the special envoy revealed that general patrick camera of the netherlands a veteran of the u.n. who's commanded peacekeepers headed inquiries and written reports for the united nations will set up a team of monitors who will deploy to yemen as soon as possible it's believed

general camera team will be unarmed and we tossed would provide incredible monitoring of the cease fire in the port and city of her data the monitoring mission will have to be endorsed in the u.n. security council resolution that is likely to be difficult to negotiate with passed resolutions saudi arabia has put pressure on members of the security council including the current arab member kuwait to try and shape the words of the resolution to their interest james bays al-jazeera at the united nations while bashar is out is there a senior political analyst explain the political tightrope the u.n. is walking when dealing with saudi arabia. in a u n security council resolution making it basically into defacto into law whereby the saudis and they are this going to have to abide by it so it's very important for the un security council to rush towards the trying the agreements in sweden

into those illusion this way it would be respected by the all parties all the parties especially those who were planning an attack. on iran had they the notably the iraqis and the saudis but again even that would still be the first death the worse the longer route the worse recovery and the worse was addition i think that's why i think that's why the secretary general and the special envoy would go out of their way to thank someone everyone knows including that both of them that is responsible for the tragedy of yemen to the which is come of this of mine because unlike him they're not going to hold yemen hostage to a political calculus now they're say let's resolve the image then crisis even if it means gesturing towards the saudi crown prince because this is a first step among many whereby in battle the international community we've seen the american congress but hopes others will take bagot measures against the very

particular case of mohammed but said a man or say for the killing of the four other crises that he's created that the manufacturer but in a fight as yemen is concerned it is paramount that the yemenis after three years of war to be able to recover from what is a famine and thought the disaster in the country. well anger against saudi arabia has been growing in the u.s. with the senate passing a resolution to condemn its long standing ally in the war in yemen said it is also blame the saudi crown prince for the murder of journalist jamal khashoggi and the washington post has run a full page tribute to regularly for the paper the post says it will continue to push for meaningful action against riyadh over its role in the killing friday that is part of a larger campaign planned for twenty nineteen this is a senator from donald trump's republican party says the current u.s.

relationship with saudi arabia isn't working they're going to sell all or they will starve they're going to do what's best for the saudi economy which is all based. weapons i'm worried that this guy is crazy enough to kill a journalist in a consulate in turkey why would you give that guy weapons that he may give to the russians or the chinese as long as m.b.a.'s is around i'm not going to deal with saudi arabia as a normal relationship because there's nothing normal about the us they need a thousand times more than we need them. turkey's foreign minister has been called on saudi arabia to be more transparent and assist with the investigation into murder president there were made it very clear that on our side you know it's been a very transparent and very credible investigation we haven't received any or any. new information or come of the investigation from so this i saw it has to be also very credible and transparent one and thirty will not give up on this issue we will

deal there. bruno works for the french newspaper le figaro specializing in middle east reporting joins me now from doha form good to have you with us on the program sir while on the surface it seems that warring sides on the supporters have all made concessions how tenuous in your opinion is that tentative peace that we've so far or has been achieved so far despite these reports of clashes data. yes it's a very fragile agreement it's not at all a peace agreement but it seems that each side reads the conclusion that there's no or there option that a roll of four u.n. spatially in plays like a duck it has been an idea which floated in here with instant jordan who with you were ready to to give of the port to the u.n. the other part was not was not ready to do is that apparently there were from

pressures and now there's no other option given the fact that the the yemen has been so divided so fragmented for four years that the u.n. there will be the would have a role but it would be a very tough very tough role because and harm the u.n. observers and it could be a trap but. it's absolutely necessary i mean how important was martin previous his statement when he told the security council on friday that a speedy presence in the field is an essential part of sort of confidence building need to accompany the implementation of thursday's agreement i mean is it a u.n. force if that's what he's alluding to the answer to maintaining the peace all will that be possibly seen as a sort of protect protracted long term presence of the u.n. as a final settlement drags on the u.n. forces can be seen as a helper and a hindrance at the same time depending on your point of view. yes yes it's always

very difficult and very one sided can be can be tempted to the use of the un forces to instrument the lies of the un forces but as i said there's no confidence between the two sides and in places like our data our bribes also in you need to have a separated the forces which are behind between the two sides. if we want to tool to mentee in this very fragile cease fire do you find it a little odd all strange that so many officials already have found it in their hearts to thank saudi arabia for moving towards a peace deal knowing they were actually the ones that began the war began the conflict continued the blockade of food supplies to people on the ground the civilians in yemen and we are now seeing that disastrous health crisis

unfold today which is why the international community has put pressure on saudi arabia to come to the negotiating table. yeah the saudis and the iraqis were for the one we didn't want to do to stop the by learned seen spatially you know data saw as you said there were pressures specially after the catch of the assassination the us you know stopped due to the saudi aircraft so. now that they realize finally saudis and iraqis that there's no military solution to this terrible conflict down the and they have to have to recognize that and the fact that the they accepted or data to the un proposal it's the proof that they have to backtrack mainly because of the in the aftermath of the nation so much but we'll leave it from love figure thanks very much for

joining us from the doha forum thank you. well in a few minutes we'll have the weather with rob but still ahead here on al-jazeera. i told them you serve the devil and i serve god let's see who is stronger and who's going to win. holy reffed why all the dots churchgoers in ukraine are facing a choice on splitting with russia. and five years after the world's youngest nation descended into civil war we ask south sudanese refugees if they think they'll ever see their homes again. and mexico's superstar box the canelo says he's looking to make history when he steps into the ring for his big fight in new york city those details coming up in sport. from the clear blue sky of the doha moony. to the french autumn breeze in the

city of hillah. it has been a stormy start to summer in virtually all of austria certain the most populated areas you still see this being world of down here over new south wales if you're anywhere from adelaide to camber and science which has seen some pretty big storms and flooding rain melbourne has been the focus and this is the picture in melbourne on the streets yesterday as you can see it's not particularly damaging floods it's just sort of it restricts your movement if you like it's axle deep or a bit deeper and it's not from a huge amount of rain that this is the result but actual fact seventy four millimeters all fell in three days it's not even tropical production proportions so don't totally see the rate at which it fell twenty one millimeters in ten minutes that amount of maybe in ten minutes all focused in one area hence the flooding now as a matter of comparison the average for the whole of december for melbourne is sixty four so we've seeded that already now there's still some storm warnings are in the

flood warnings out for most of this part of australia including as you can see our . at least tasmania but we have been looking actually further north over the last few days tropical cyclone here it is the massive clouds go across tropical queens and now it's no longer a tropical cyclone is just a storm but it will do some pretty heavy rain in tropical queens and and further south. the weather sponsored by cats are enemies. xenophobia violent and beating the drum for an ethnic civil war in the heart of europe. al-jazeera infiltrates one of the continent's past describing far right organizations and exposes links to members of the european parliament and marine appends national party generation the hate. part one of

out on the streets of paris it's been more than about since the protest movement began the demonstrations have occurred across the country and spot political crossings. also palestinian president mahmoud abbas has ordered the reconstruction of a home demolished by the israeli military just hours ago soldiers destroyed residents in the occupied west bank after accusing the owner's son of killing an israeli soldier. and there has been fighting there humans who dated less than a day after a ceasefire was agreed to the t.v. network showed what appeared to be an airstrike by the saudi coalition which is fighting the rebels. now the u.k. prime minister to resign may is back in london after crunch talks with european leaders she went to brussels looking for concessions on her brakes agreement after it faced huge opposition in the british parliament but european leaders showed no sign of budging joan hall reporter from brussels. that report later the pregnancy

was straight over to paul brennan who's live for us in london and of course paul the scenario is that the british prime minister was trying to put a really a positive spin on those discussions with e.u. leaders that she had in in in brussels on friday how is that actually going down in london now that politicians and the public really have had a chance to digest what she did or did not achieve. kind of strange atmosphere here in london so while at the weekends of course members of parliament scatter around the country to their constituencies and mull over local issues you know housing benefits joblessness that kind of things but no doubt bracks it is dominating the headlines and the thoughts all rattled through a couple of the headlines from the newspapers here in the u.k. here's the times rich leads with may's deal is dead it says the cabinet has agreed that may's deal is dead but they can't agree what kind of alternative proposal

should take its place in the guardian it says angry and bruised may returns empty handed the guardian saying she's been left to brutally exposed by the failure to find some kind of compromise from the european union and the very bracks it approach daily express says why the hell do we bother that is why the hell do we bother trying to find an accommodation with the european union the express would prefer just to go for our bracks it's the article it's getting probably the most mileage here is an article by rudd she is the work in pensions secretary a former home secretary and she has asked how can we break the bricks if deadlock and what she's advocating is a kind of government of national unity she's not the first to advocate such a proposal nikki morgan the former education minister proposed it on monday during the press of debate but i'm rudd is certainly the most senior and the current cabinet minister and so it's adding extra weight to the fact that there doesn't

seem to be an agreement a majority for anything because they can't agree on the parties a separate parties perhaps it's time to come together as a kind of government of national unity what was the what happens for the moment paul thanks very much for. the delegates at the twenty four global climate change conference in poland will be staying on for at least another day because no final agreement has yet been reached the end of end to spilling over into saturday as representatives from almost two hundred nations discuss how to implement the paris agreement that clark joins me now live from the summit in quetta reacher in poland i mean the conference really should have wrapped up shouldn't it nic of all on friday so what do the delegates hope to achieve with this extra day. well hopefully they'll reach some sort of conclusion today may yet even go into tomorrow who knows and so it goes on should just emphasize the complexity of what's

happening here you've got one hundred ninety six nations all being asked to realign their economies to go zero carbon in a matter of years it's incredibly difficult when you throw in the current climate of nationalist politics where perhaps multilateralism takes more of a back seat it makes things very difficult and then you put on the pressure of the one point five degrees report which says you've that we really have to move fast on this then you have a scenario where it's all very difficult to make any progress the situation now as we had the first text yesterday morning that was worked on all day yesterday the u.s. actually generals was shuffling around trying to bring the parties together to to bring this process forward the second texas jew out at four o'clock in the morning that was pushed forward to ten o'clock in the morning then to twelve o'clock in the morning after twelve o'clock noon i should say and then and now you have this ongoing process where little elements of the text of being released and some are still being worked on and negotiated over let's try to make some sense of it we can speak to how to do from christian aid who's been following the process as

a veteran of these events what do you make of the state of affairs right now it's been extremely slow a good chunk of the text there with the parties agreement book has come ault but we yet to see very important parts of the text including the support for developing countries but also what is going to happen with a lot of damage so they're essential elements that are critical to the final rule book that haven't been a great so where is the stalemate coming from a particular nation we have a number of like it's including the four of nationals including the united states so do you. and russia will of actually block to the rest of the world for welcoming and to report they commissioned in twenty fifteen the latest i.p.c.c. report that was that the. sciences said they were heading for three degrees more exactly and this is a science that is meant to. respond to. a

change in the very basis for. the scientific warnings which the world had. in south korea. stopped the world and effectively responding to the climate challenge i understand is a big issue over carbon credits as well which is a complex arcane area trying to explain that for we have. to help the rich develop wild actually exploit the existing mitigation potential in the developing countries where they can buy credits in the developing countries can contribute to the efforts of the rich world and we have actually a lot of hot air from the kyoto protocol days and a lot of. that needed to be addressed and that is. what is called the carbon markets because they failed to agree here the. next year and that

is actually quite important during that. of the agreement this is one example where normal's is actually better than. and what's your sense of how this is going to go. if you push into sunday it's going to be. possibly moving into. good parts of the. critical parts of the text when those are produced. and it's only. five if you. and so. we don't know when the hands of very incapable president poland we've actually turned this into a call to it for when you say he hasn't done well where has he gone wrong this is

supposed to be a multilateral negotiation where parties actually negotiate and face each other in an open setting what the police have done is basically decided over presidential consultations so the group of parties world negotiated via the president rather than negotiating with their partners in an open plan of the city and so because that is happening of course we can do even more who's actually blocking and so we're getting a lot of the information to the developing party delegates the progressive ones who want to actually push this process to be able to arrive at their. course and their younger ones mohammed appreciate your perspective very much thank you very much indeed so the wrangling goes on we'll be back with more as soon as we know more. thanks. in poland at least seven people have been killed after a gun battle in indian administered kashmir security forces launched a search operation on saturday morning four suspected rebels in the region fighting

broke out of protests followed in the confrontations several people were killed by gunshot wounds not for others have been taken to hospital in a serious condition. seven year old guatemalan girl has died of dehydration while in the custody of u.s. border police jacqueline and me rosemary kenya was picked up by her father and another asylum seeker earlier this month in a remote area along the border with the u.s. her father has told officials that she didn't get any medical treatment for ninety minutes despite vomiting of running a very high fever the death was raised or has raised new questions about the treatment of central americans who are trying to reach the u.s. mike hammer has more from washington d.c. . many questions are being asked about the death of the seven year old from guatemala she was traveling with her father in a group of some one hundred sixty would be immigrants when they were arrested by border protection officers on the remote northwestern u.s.

border she was then transported in a bus journey of some one and a half hours to eight customs and border detention center she felt ill during that journey she was then transported by helicopter to a hospital at el paso where she was pronounced dead of brain liver failure it's a horrific situation there's no there's no two ways about it and it's. it's a sad time but it's also senseless it's a needless death and it's one hundred percent preventable if we could just come together and pass some commonsense laws to disincentive eyes people from coming up from the border and encourage them to do it the right way the legal way but critics contend that the trumpet ministration policy is the direct cause of the seven year old's death saying that they are making it so difficult for people to cross the border that they are traveling to more remote and therefore more dangerous areas in

the to get into the united states the customs and border protection commissioner kevin mccullough in an address the senate judiciary committee on tuesday and he confirmed the fact that the war and more people were attempting to cross that remote southwestern border this a major issue he contends that at the same time he did not mention the death of the seven year old despite the fact that she had died five days before he spoke to the dish or recommitting it is law that such a death be reported to a congressional body within twenty four hours so questions about the commissioner questions about the trumpet ministration broad border policy though and so the storm became an independent nation more than seven years ago there were high hopes for the oil rich state but the country has been at war for much of the time hundreds of thousands of people been killed and millions more forced from their
