more than one and a half million people have been affected by after it battered southern africa on the day mozambique was the first to get hit more than eighty people are confirmed dead and over two hundred a missing president felipe a new season is more than a thousand people may have been code at least ninety eight people are dead in neighboring zimbabwe with two hundred seventy missing destroyed roadways making it hard to deliver aid in malawi officials fear at least fifty six people have been killed with over five hundred others injured all three countries have declared national emergencies let's go now to our correspondent. joining us live from a better that's one of the hardest hit areas in central mozambique we can see just some of the damage behind you mel. what is the situation there.

you are right here an enormous tree came crashing into a building that fortunately this was a building on the construction so there was nobody inside when it came crashing down but that's not been the case in many other places it's still not unknown number of people have been killed across the country one of the reasons that the administration don't know what's going on is because all the communications are being cut off and lots of bridges and roads have been washed away as well here in the town of west on the barrier connected by two roads to the whole of the rest of the country and one of the bridges washed away on the other the road washed away so it's kind of on an island there at the moment makes it very difficult for the administration here to even get information from the neighboring areas to find out how much damage has been done and is as full of it and one of the areas that's expecting more heavy rain over the next few days malcolm. well initially when the cycling came in we were near here and it started with very

strong winds and then about four days of absolutely torrential rain then there's been a few short break since out and there but today it's been on an office been raining again and there is more rain expected in the coming days and of course that means more damage to clock crops and flooding and so on one of the hardest hit areas in the country at the moment is actually closer to the coast the coastal city of tehran is where the cyclamen came in that's where it's done a great deal of damage but it's the province just inland that there is now suffering from enormous amounts of flooding because not only because of the enormous amount of rainfall coming down but also the surge from the sea is filled rivers up from the bottom so in the boozy district right now there are people who are stranded on top of roofs of buildings clinging to trees waiting to be rescued by eric if anyone's able to come and do that so that's one of the areas that worst affected right now malcolm thank you very much for that for now that's now come web live from esperanza better with all the latest thank you and find the miller has

more from baghdad that's also one of the other hardest hit areas in mozambique. the situation here appears to be becoming increasingly difficult just behind us as you can see power lines are down in this particular street but that is the picture across the city there's also no communication we're using a satellite phone to communicate with people here we don't have that luxury and that's what adding to a some of the difficulties that people here are facing so far the government has said that sixty eight people were killed during that like on in the days after but it's expected that figure will rise because there is there's no communication people aren't able to call for help or determine we missing people will just also the extent of the devastation and aid agencies is that just one of the biggest challenges apart from accessing areas especially rural areas in low lying areas where floodwaters are continuing to rise apart from having difficulty in accessing

those areas they simply can't determine just how bad the devastation is aid agencies that have been able to fly overhead say that the flood waters a very high that entire villages have been slipped away now here in barrow away the central hospital is that services the city of half a million people the roof of that hospital was torn torn away during that cycle own and that hospital also is running out of medicine now the government is holding a meeting in a para at some point during the course of the day to to work out what to do with people who are also disappointed they were told to evacuate people to fly clone but the question for them was where do we go and they have a number of grievances with the government and just how it's dealing with this disaster so far and what happens next given the scale of devastation and as you mentioned earlier the sun has also bet and zimbabwe isolation cells and people more

as a burying the dead cells and more wait for relief supplies communities have the gun taking mass graves at least ninety eight people have died throughout the country and more than two hundred a still missing aid agencies say several wife are roadways have been destroyed making it hard to reach those who need help. we're going to move on to other news now new zealand's a prime minister has promised justice for the fifty victims of the christ church mosque attacks center ardan may develop in an emotional speech or in the first parliamentary session since the mass shooting when hay reports from christchurch after friday's attack in christchurch this sitting of parliament was not about politics in a rare move the floor of the debating chamber was given over to people from outside parliament they were religious leaders who came together to offer condolences and prayers for the victims. we

ask you to grant patience and hope to all the family members affected by this tragedy or lot we asked you to protect new zealand and the whole was from such calamities i mean in an emotional speech the prime minister urged new zealanders to support the muslim community and she spoke of the man alleged to have inflicted so much pain on that community but refused to speak his name he saw many things from his act of terror but one was no shariah. and that is why you will never hear me mention his name he is a terrorist he is a criminal he is an extremist but he will when i speak be nameless and to others i implore you speak the names of those who were lost rather than the

name of the man who took them he may have sought not sure i see but we in new zealand will give him nothing. the l nor mosque where the first attack took place is still cordoned off a forensic examination is coming to an end and the focus is turning to cleaning before worshipers are allowed back in there's been some frustration expressed by family members of those killed about delays in having bodies returned for burial but that process is now under way and for now the area behind the cordon remains a crime scene but it's believed that in the next few days both mosques will reopen that will be a difficult time for people like. who came to new zealand from south africa twelve years ago he used to pray at the el nor mosque but at the moment this is as close as he can get all of the people in the most state and prays this. welcome guest to new zealand and so there's a lot of places all. so it's. that's

an emotion that will be around for a long time yet is the people here struggle to come to terms with the terror that came to this city wayne hey al jazeera christchurch. police in the netherlands are investigating the motion of a gunman who shot three people dead on a tram auckland terrace is in custody after police launched a manhunt in the city of all tricked authorities say the thirty seven year old turkish born man had previous run ins with law enforcement dutch authorities say they're investigating a possible terrorism related might have bought other reasons haven't been out there has more from tracked. well dutch police say they are continuing to question a thirty seven year old man that they have identified as goldman thomas now he is a man they say born in turkey he grew up here in your tract in the netherlands they say that he's known already to the police for policy crimes such as alleged assault

now in terms of any possible motivation while the police say it's so far on clear it could be a family drama a dispute but they also say that they are not ruling out terrorism as a possible motivation now you trek to on tuesday morning is a very different place things are very much back to normal that wasn't the case on monday because off to the shooting schools and universities were shut down a high terror threat level was put into place as police hunted for the suspects in terms of the tram eyewitnesses described wild scenes of sheer panic as a godman opened fire they talked about windows being smashed people tried to crawl out of this tram and get away and of course utrecht is one of the main cities in the netherlands it's a place very popular with students to come and study it's famous for its canals it is not also a place where gun crime isn't the least bit common. but it's common to theresa may is holding crisis talks with her cabinet after her breaks

a federal grand jury issued a subpoena for evil's and other correspondence relating to the jet's development investigators have found some allowances between last week's question ethiopia and another and a new five months ago both involved seven three seven max eight planes mike hanna has more from washington d.c. . well the justice department investigation is virtually unprecedented in fact there's only been one occasion before in u.s. aviation history where this type of criminal proceeding has been launched in the wake of an accident now what at the justice department is looking at in particular is the certification process of these boeing seven three seven maxes and the role that the federal aviation authority if they did or didn't play in the certification process now it's significant that the subpoena was issued by the federal jury of the day after the crash in ethiopia however this was

a coincidence the investigation had been ongoing it's taken since that particular day for news of the investigation to emerge boeing's chief executive officer has issued a statement on these accidents saying only that boeing remains committed to safety it is carrying out its own investigations but he does not address the issue of a justice department investigation an investigation that will not only look at boeing's procedures but is also likely to look at the relationship between the federal aviation authority and boeing with regard to these safety procedures so let's get more on this now we're joined by robert wall he's the senior heiress face and aviation editor for the wall street journal and he's joining us live from london very good to have you with us on al-jazeera i know that your publication the wall street journal has been leading the reporting on the department of justice and the department of transport and quiescent can you tell us in more about exactly

what they're looking into here. i mean i think you've basically captured what it is they're looking for i think that what is important to realize is this could be a very sweeping investigation both the d.o.j. and the department of transport inspector general's office prosecutor or prosecute powers almost they can subpoena documents from the f.a.a. but also from others and they can obviously force witnesses to come to testify and they can even conduct searches to gather documents you know we're still at an early stage and we really don't know how far reaching this will be and will they also be looking into the relationship how closely will they be looking into the relationship rather between boeing and the f.a.a. f a a and looking at whether safety regulations followed you know non standing engineering design standards in approving that. stall prevention fête feature.

yeah absolutely i mean i think you know obviously they prosecuted the investigators keep it pretty closely held what specifically they are looking at we can assume that they will be looking at all the documentation or as much documentation as they can get their hands on between boeing and the f.a.a. to see if everything was complied with if there were any variances maybe even any short cuts taken so i think that is definitely going to be a key part of the probe and i think also important to realize is you haven't mentioned yet is of course the u.s. congress is getting involved and is going to start up its own investigation and they can also obviously require people to come testify before congress so this is a multifaceted. scrutiny that boeing and the seven three seven and the f.a.a. will be under in the coming weeks and most of all just how concerning is this given that boeing is the world's largest aerospace company.

yeah i mean this is certainly you know this is certainly a big crisis for boeing i think there's no other way to put it. out financially how big are the financial implications i mean certainly the costs of this can run high between litigation damages they may have to pay for airlines that have had to ground their planes. you know this is a costly undertaking. and of fairness you also have to realize boeing is a big company with many many businesses principally known for its commercial airplanes but it does many other things i mean this is not the kind of thing you would expect would threaten the future of the company but it is certainly in an uncomfortable position for them to be in that is the wall street journal's robert bork joining us live from london thank you very much for your expertise on this we appreciate it thank you. to algeria now where medical students and doctors have joined protests against the president's plan to stay in power beyond the end of his

term and the capital algiers they have been calling for a free democracy saying the military and the people of brothers at the lizzie's beautifully calm wants to stay in power beyond april twenty eighth when his fourth term is due to expire after weeks of protests but if legal postponed elections and promise reforms but hasn't given a timetable for the changes. algerian opposition leaders have urged the army not to interfere in the political crisis for the army's chief of staff says the military ship take responsibility for finding a quick solution which you do know but this privileged awareness that the homeland comes first and that security and stability are paramount i renew today the pledge i've made before god and before the people it's history will judge me that the people's national army will remain the fortified shield protecting the people and the homeland under all circumstances mohamad valve reports.

the revolt has spread to expire three years in former colonial power france they were out in force in paris for the third consecutive sunday on an armada of you david if you it tired of all people since nine hundred sixty two we've always been with old people leave the place to the young get out of the way the system is clear make way for the young the ailing eighty two year old president ob-la says beautifully relinquished his bid for a fifth term following weeks of under arrest but his decision to postpone the presidential election should yield for april eighteenth has provoked more widespread anger which of libya has appointed a new prime minister nouri in bed weak and a deputy in talks to form a cabinet mostly of technocrats but the prime minister is receiving little support from protesters who say they don't trust any politicians linked to it with a flicker of god. a few members of parliament including some from the ruling party

have resigned in support of the protests. we refused to participate in the upcoming cabinet because we believe that such cabinet should only result from a national conference in a transparent national popular dialogue that people have taken to the streets to bring about real change and make sure that none of the same people who have been ruling us continue in power even the staunchest supporters of change in algeria seem to realize the military from their influence on politics may be impossible instead protesters hope for younger leaders who will be less corrupt more democratic and more answerable to the rule of law even if supported by the generals got on top of stability one hundred one a desire. and ending interest of the family of a man arrested by police is calling for an investigation after being told he died in their custody the death has led to protests in sri lanka there's no confirmation of how the land died of his family say he was murdered by police officers initially
