surely increase as his countrymen watch the images of the food and medicine so many desperately need go up in smoke. see in human san antonio that should have been his way so let's take a closer look at how the madeira government has been blocking aid from entering venezuela for crossings along the border with colombia have been closed down the main entry point is the same on international bridge it connects the city of kuta with san antonio in venezuela do as also shut the border with brazil there was violence on saturday at the gateway and packard i'm on the brazilian side as trucks carrying aid try to cross into venezuela momma john jr has more from that that was on brazil's border with venezuela desperation turned to reach and the fuse was finally lit as rocks were hurled so were accusations. some alleged venezuelan migrants started it all by setting this vehicle ablaze while others

claimed venezuelan security forces were really to blame. the thought that if you let their throwing tear gas grenades into brazilian territory said this man who appeared both angry and panicked by eventually the injured were carried away and brazil's army stepped in that notable result of others are ordering these men. first to put down their rocks then to move away. brazil's army has cleared its border with venezuela all the people that were up there are now here in the center of the town of pocket i'm a for now the mood has returned to calm the question is will it stay that way many were still on edge a little bit down the report i saw that i think there was one infiltrator who threw iraq first so that the venezuelan security forces would be obliged to react against us they threw rocks and other objects at us in brazil then we started throwing things toward them in venezuela. hours earlier though it was

a very different atmosphere on this border cheers greeted trucks with venezuelan license plates as they carried aid supplies a few feet into the venezuelan side. of this humanitarian volunteer told me driving the vehicle had filled him with pride and concern that you know you are here we don't have guns we just have medicine for our children and loads of goods for pregnant women and this is a shipment of peace in order to bring peace. to the trucks unable to cross further into going as way ala stayed put but many migrants despite the difficulties reaching brazil continued their journey i mean i'm a declared little as we walked for three year four hours from venezuela because there are no buses or cars to transport us there burning buzz's things are very terrible on a day when more questions emerged about how when and if aid will actually get into

this whale and it's clear these been his wayland's will continue to seek it right here in brazil. and just see it in pocket i'm up on brazil's border. phil a quick reminder of who in the international community is supporting president maduro and who is against him russia says any moves to remove him from power are illegal or turkey has called him a brother china's also standing behind him mexico says it recognizes the authorities elected in accordance with the venezuelan constitution while allies bolivia and cuba say they remain committed to. the united states and canada recognize the opposition leader one guy door and in latin america the recent rise of the right has eroded support from durham brazil argentina chile and colombia among others several european nations including the u.k. spain germany and france are also battling. for the morey's desires as a former un special rapporteur he says madeira is justified in calling the u.s. aid a publicity stunt. what is important is that mother little does accept humanitarian

aid that nine hundred thirty three tons of humanitarian aid medical medical supplies and medicines came in last week and that came from china from india from turkey and also couple of days ago three hundred tons of medicine and medical supplies came in from russia now all these are being distributed with the help of the united nations even the european union has recently agreed to make humanitarian aid available which will be distributed through the united nations either you have a trojan horse situation the u.s. aid program was used already against nicaragua one that i think it is to bring in contraband to bring in weapons and you cannot be the tormentor and then

mutate into a good samaritan it can get very very soon very much better the moment that the sanctions are lifted the moment that the country is allowed to buy and sell like any other country the moment that the financial blockade is lifted it is the united states that is causing the crisis that's why mother will accept help from the european union accept help from. china from russia etc but will not accept it from the country that is causing the crisis. lots more so to come on the news hour including after years of violence we visit iraq's ancient sites with need of restoration. what's got religious groups up in arms the head of a. new constitution. in sport. rescues and reaches another. in the process.

voting is underway in senegal to choose the country's next leader president is banking on a booming economy to stay in office for another term opposition candidates dispute that they say poverty and unemployment are just pushing people to leave the country reports in the capital dhaka. i would like to salute citizens for the mobilizing seems dismounting all over the country and abroad to exercise their choice in peace and serenity so i praise god and i hope that by de end of this day the people will be dion and that the chosen president to be will also be the president of all the senegalese i hope this president will be myself and i pray for that now joins us live now from the senegalese capital

bring us up to date with what's been happening there today. well this morning we saw a lot of people coming in to this voting station now we're in medina we're just a stone's throw away from the presidential palace and this area is a stronghold of the popular mayor of deckard he tried to to run in this election but was not allowed to because he's been sentenced to corruption charges and he his supporters as thrown his support towards a candidate. for other candidates are challenging incumbent president mikey sol who's wants to run for a second term in office and of course people here these candidates are trying to attract young voters why well because most people in senegal are born after two thousand and they're millennialists they've only experienced two presidents former

president of the aged ninety two and mikey age fifty seven and so for many young people he's president are not relevant joining me now is i mean that giant who is twenty four you're a first time voter and you're undecided why is that. i decided to vote against my side which is to me is the most important thing in this election voting against my you so it's more it's important thing for you for this election why what is it that you do not like about mikey sell because in his campaign he's read been really promoting his his. his what he's done it is mandate that he's helped junge women especially in the job market he has betrayed everything he promised us when he came in two thousand and twelve especially given english justice you named it like when you were doing the president like he arrested political opponents in the name of justice in the name of fighting against corruption and things we've never had in our country like banning freedom of speech banning protesters from marching i being

a happening and i think that's very dangerous for democracy and so there are four of the candidates that are running in the race do you think those four other candidates are dress. issues that matter to you. they're dressing issues that matter for senate though i think specially one of them. he has been his voice has around like with young people because his young himself is saying that it's time to change the system and also like other candidates like there is a second is a cell in my thinking i have also addressed it in the own way a different part of the programs but i've seen lacking in this campaign issues around me when around like environment specially none of that really address it for my opinion in a serious way something that's come come in again come again and again during this campaign is the lack of job opportunities for young people and many of them crossing the mediterranean trying to go to europe leaving this country do you think that these candidates are offering opportunities that young people want. i soon so

i think they will try atlas and i think in the campaign they have been addressed in different ways to foster economy and to create like you have employment for people but i think they also showing and now it's senegalese young people are understanding that they have to take the destiny in their own hands to enter predicament of the kind of business and really try to create themselves a better future for president called for a boycott of this election saying it's not free and fair because two of the opposition candidates are not taking part of it despite this you're going out to vote of course and so as a matter of sending all these people because you have you have a history of voting in peace and in two thousand and twelve a lot of political opinions like microsoft was saying that they believe like. the political maturity of the country so they've been saying the senegalese people are always going to vote for the president and they're going to do it in and i hope that's what's going to happen today and till now it's happening i mean that's i

thank you very much now there's still a few hours to go before the polling station closes and it's worth remembering that in two thousand and twelve people came out. to vote against. in favor of markey cell after seven years in power he wants to run for a second mandate and then just hours to come we'll find out what the senate the least people want. all right nicholas nicholas thank you. now as seen in the go shares are appointed by donald trump is on his way to the middle east to promote a future peace plan that israel and palestine president from sun and or jared krishna was expect to accompany jason green blinds in a weeklong tour of gulf states the u.s. delegation will outline the economic elements of a proposal in the ending a decades old conflict with al-jazeera a senior political analyst marwan bashar joins me in the studio now we haven't heard much about this trip by cushion or so what was the purpose of the visit tell us look not to believe it's to build on the so-called momentum that the united

states created in warsaw just a few days ago where vice pres the nz mike pence and secretary of state might propel you brought israelis and arabs together without the palestinians in order to advance the notion of some arab israeli alliance against iran now it's important for any american initiative in israel palestine to be supported by the arab world i guess what there isn't much left in the arab world most of it is either in conflict or a twenty four to of it jordan and egypt already have peace agreements with israel and three or four of them will never have agreements with israel at this point in time.
