al-jazeera. in a world where journalism as an industry is changing we have fortunate to be able to continue to expand to continue to have that passenger drive and present the stories in a way that is important to our viewers. everyone has a story worth hearing. to cover those that are often ignored we don't weigh our coverage towards one particular region or continent that's why i joined al-jazeera . to al-jazeera. you personally one of the main beneficiaries is that the case we listen for you want to be a swedish of it india that's not exactly my point we meet with global news makers and talk about the stories that matter. eternity. sacred us military occupation.
9:04 am
my prison my freedom my heartbeat my life my languages my occupation since a lot of incentive there's a little cultural. move. to roost in there a rock and a hard to please coming soon. came full knowing indeed an up close to him to feel each separate the village the two pots hundreds dead in mozambique zimbabwe i'm a long way off a cycling causes one of the worst ever weather disasters to hit the southern hemisphere.
9:05 am
this is a line from joe home also coming up the first funerals have been held for the victims of new zealand's mosque attacks international accuses us of killing civilians in somalia but the american military denies the allegations. and more scrutiny from boeing is the u.s. transportation department orders an investigation into how the seven three seven max plane was twenty five. so the u.n. is describing cyclamen each one of the worst weather disasters ever to hit the southern hemisphere millions of people have been affected in mozambique and zimbabwe and in malawi at least one thousand people may have been killed amazing because aid agencies are calling it the worst humanitarian crisis in the nation's history three days of. morning have been declared the storm then hit zimbabwe where tens of thousands of people have been cut off rescue teams are warning that time is
9:06 am
running out for those affected and in malawi nearly a million people still need humanitarian aid with conditions making have it causing havoc with transport infrastructure we have correspondents across the region in a moment we'll hear the latest from her room a chance are in zimbabwe but first this report from malcolm where in central mozambique the cyclamen brought ferocious winds and days of torrential rains just a few days ago this river was up above the level of what remains of this road and it swept away the entire bridge that was here you can see some of the few pieces that remain of it and that's left people stranded on both sides mobile communications are down so people can't speak to their relatives they don't know if they've survived or what's happened also means essential goods and humanitarian aid campaspe cincy. that ended to go to. that part of the so i don't know
9:07 am
a region that declares because there is no bridge the. bridges brogan all of the officials from the district headquarters have come to inspect the damage but realistically there's almost nothing they can do without help from at least the central government or possibly some outside of ms mozambique there's no way that they can fix a big piece of infrastructure like this and so every day people come down here to see if there's a way if they can pass to see if the water levels low enough to get a small boat or to walk or even get a vehicle across but until that happens they're still stuck well as we mentioned earlier as cycling back to jim bob way rescue teams there are warning that time is running out for people cut off or which has more. one by one they arrived bruised and battered by the violent flood surge caused by cycling a die these survivors spent days marooned in remote villages but damaged phone lines destroyed roads and bad weather delayed the help they needed some posing for

pictures. but they always just filled the bones because some we covered by my question or just did it part of the board and some of. the cards in. turkey and on frayed for some of the patients they were now sitting in fiction so. those are the injuries that we've been seeing this woman walk to this makes of medical center she was injured when a house fell on top of her during the floods two of her children were killed her surviving baby is the sole focus of a love. my husband and uncle said the waters in the house they were trying to pull out one of my children from under the rubble he wasn't breathing and then the kitchen collapsed that's where my other child was killed doctors say they saw at least twenty patients in one day they hope that number increases as reports
9:09 am
of more people needing help come in those people's rescue depends on the weather rescuing people when there is bad where they can be extremely difficult to move the helicopters can't take off and some of these people have been waiting for days to hear news about their loved ones they don't know whether they are alive but it. is a was storm to hit and second in the nearly twenty years ago some government officials have reacted faster and learned from past natural disasters we're very existing structure. that give us an indication that the people were prepared but the magnitude of what you've been now was unimaginable. in new. the priority for now is burying the dead finding the missing and cheating the injured many fear time may be running out for those still believed to be alive and trapped in a month parts of the country how to make. some money money zimbabwe the

first funeral so being held in christchurch new zealand for victims of friday's shooting at two months that killed fifty people thirty bodies have been released to the families for burials it's hope to return others to their loved ones for burial as soon as possible these ilands prime minister just announce that two minutes of silence will be observed on friday for victims of the attack islamic call to prayer will also be televised nationwide it's me now to talk about what it went hey who joins is in christ church wayne say the first few notes have now been taking place . yes a very sad day of course for those families who had people killed in those mosques and they have had a difficult time since then of course because partly all what appears to have been a relatively slow process of getting those bodies released from the hospital after the post-mortem and identification process is have been completed but that process
9:11 am
well underway now and the first of the funerals took place on wednesday morning and it was a father and son khaled's and homs mustafa who came to new zealand as refugees from syria just last year and they were killed inside the al nor mosque which is the was the first mosque to be attacked by the gunman on friday where most people were killed another couple of funeral started a short time ago among those the funeral for the thirty six year old christchurch businessman his name junaid a smile a father of three also killed inside the eleanor mosque the prime minister again in his speech in a media conference while visiting christchurch spoke again about these delays saying that she shares the frustrations of the families through this apparent slow process but she said it's not through a lack of resources not through a lack of hard work she's met with those people involved in this the coroner has. and she says they are working extremely hard to get this done as fast as possible
9:12 am
the police said a similar thing earlier on wednesday saying trying to build a murder case so it has to be as thorough as possible she's been pretty impressive overall had a lot of plaudits were around the world isn't she the prime minister what else did she have to say in the press conference. yes she certainly has showed strong leadership i think would be the overall theme throughout this really from the moment the attack happened when she made her first comments and that has been reflected in some of the reaction from new zealand's and from around the world she didn't. spent a lot of time talking in this media conference and she did though take a lot of questions from the very large media contingent here a lot of those questions were about things not directly coming out of friday's attack they were things like president donald trump's comments or aleck they're all about white extremism and his apparent lack of willingness to say that this was
9:13 am
a growing problem in the world something she disagrees with but on this occasion she said look i don't want to talk about issues like this those her focus is very much on what's going on here in christchurch showing as much support as she can for those who have been affected by this and the wider muslim community on a practical sense as you mentioned the two main things to come out of this were the friday anniversary the week anniversary of this attack happening the call to prayer which will be broadcast live on television and radio right around new zealand's thanks wayne when a reporter from christ church that series from the new zealand prime minister. has spoken about zero and she said the attack was an affront to all museums here was a. group of new zealanders. who had gathered for a place of peace for wu ship. and who should have been able to safely would
9:14 am
ship and who have them and their families lives have being devastated by the acts of this terrorist but it is the fact that it is so confronting to us this new zealanders that it happened in that place of peace the wish hope where you know the . muslim community would have been a place of deep contemplation when it was so clearly targeted at the him and talk i'm going to tack and theme while they were there i find deeply confronting and that is i think one of the things that will have are only compounded the anger and grief that new zealand is feel with the prime minister also addressed the issue of hates on social media and the need to change rules on gun ownership. there are too many holes in our gun laws the terrorist in this situation legally obtained guns in order to commit this act and then illegally modified them but with fact too much and so we've already seen there will
9:15 am
be gun law changes i'll be announcing some of those this week that was an immediate response but what will need to follow as i've see it is more work to ensure that we address the fact that there are plenty forms to share now hateful racist language and site to violence through social media that must be addressed but actually just the issue of extremism generally we are not free from their country almost is the strong we said from the muslim community here has been alongside new zealand we reject extremism and violence in all its forms and we will be absolutely united in that. the chief bricks in negotiating britain will only be allowed to delay its departure from the blog if prime minister to resume a current show that will increase the chances of getting the brits

a deal through parliament and may is expected to ask you for an extension of at least three months deal she struck with the you has already been rejected twice by british m.p.'s hoda abdel-hamid has more now from brussels you do sense a certain degree of frustration listen to the words of e.u. chief negotiator michel back in year he did see clearly that there was genuine uncertainty now hanging above everyone concerned he did say clearly that is not because a new deal was voted against in westminster that it was off the tables here in brussels and then when he talked about the extension he questioned what for if it's a short extension. what could possibly happen that will change and would make to reason me convinced the house of commons to ratify the current withdrawal agreement of withdrawal and if it's a long extension we're talking here about an extension for up to two years what
9:17 am
will happen during those two years will there be a change in the political process in the u.k. are we talking about a new agreement all together so far the e.u. has not received a formal request by to reason may for this extension i think that at this summit here in brussels later this week e.u. leaders will want to hear from her what exactly she's thinking and how exactly she's planning to proceed and it's only after that that they will decide on their position. still ahead here on al-jazeera. every day thousands of people come to this war to find some fish to eat i'm pretty familiar what the atlanta for that would have going on how people in this country hunting need to travel to survive. and a super bloom takes a very california's mountains as authorities try to manage the crowds coming to enjoy.

drone strikes in somalia pits be less targeted than elsewhere. so one thing that is critical regarding the counter-terrorism campaign in somalia is that it's become in many ways an air campaign in support of somali forces and in defense of a number of u.s. advisors on the ground that looks a lot different from what the counterterrorism strikes in pakistan that became many people's vision of drone strikes was there wasn't in the ongoing conflict in the same way it was more of a targeted killing campaign of high profile al qaeda and taliban leaders although also in that campaign there was sort of a move towards broader getting wrapped up in an existing conflict the united states should absolutely do more oversight particularly congress on what the u.s. is doing and the costs of it strikes it is worth noting that in comparison to other combatant commands or other campaigns such as
