arrest warrants against eighteen people involved in those protests on that happened earlier this week also and the constituent assembly the president of the constituent assembly a very powerful man here in venezuela. who has already said that that assembly that is right now in a way replacing the national assembly in this country that's controlled by the opposition the government is saying that bad national assembly congress here is in contempt and that's why they have created another body while that body is going to be voting to get it to strip off immunity the lawmakers involved in the op rising earlier this week among those lawmakers is obviously one why the opposition one why though and many say that to the government could try to arrest him later later this week and that's been a threat to own risk for a long time his position is quite difficult right now what are your positions.

lannes going forward. well that's correct it's an extremely difficult situation the one he is in right now i mean he has been threatened in the past or briefly arrested in the past let's not forget what has happened to opposition members in this country they have either been arrested detained some have been killed and others have been forced to leave the country so it is an extremely sensitive situation what we've seen for now after what even from what you know at the knowledge was a failure is that he's been continued to call to for people to go to take to the streets on saturday we saw some people heading in talking to military forces to security forces and trying to convince them to switch sides they're also calling to this vigil that is happening right now but in an interview given to the washington post where you go did not discard the possibility of requesting a military intervention and that's a very a sensitive issue here in venezuela because it would require the it would mean the

military intervention by the united states why there said that if the time comes he would request the national assembly to vote on that so at this point it's not clear what steps one way though is going to follow what he's going to do next what we don't do know is that he's fighting in a way against people's exhaustion most of the people we have spoken to here are tired they're sad they're frustrated because not real change is it is happening in venezuela and that's something that was one way they all had promised it was going to happen fast and that didn't happen thank you very much with the latest from caracas to rise above. the polls have just closed in panama when millions of people have been electing a new president the winner will succeed juan carlos viola who cannot seek a second time on the panama's constitution social democrat lauren cortizone is ahead in pre-election polls. he's led a campaign on improving social services and ending corruption country is struggling

for the crime of israel no i think israel is being the prize and the will understand very clearly that if the target people people will target if you do it inside israel recent escalation is have been contained thanks in part to un a gyptian mediation and the prevailing sense that neither side really wanted a full descent into war this round though is already more dangerous with israeli civilian casualties on one side and targeted killings of hamas commanders on the other both sides have reasons to fight on as well as step back a force that al-jazeera on the israel gaza border. eric cannon is an israeli computer expert who lives and such odds he said that the escalation in violence has made dating life a struggle that i live about three kilometers from the gaza border and since. early yesterday morning we've been going through a very rough time i'm going rockets coming into gaza and we hear also the

blasts in gaza from israel you know what we call the red alert so it's it's a loud speaker saying the words red alert. and soon as we hear that since we are very close to the gaza border we have up to fifteen seconds to go into hiding if there is a safe room or a shelter nearby then we run into that shelter if there isn't a shelter that we just need to lie flat on the ground and that's what happens if you're out in the street or in the supermarket or and you were not near us shelter well and. is a political find test who lives in gaza with his wife and children he said that some of the astronauts have just meters from his home well the past forty eight hours i have been and i can be up in the gaza strip is where they have bought it many civilian buildings many civilian infrastructure which is not very far away

were on board thirty seven survived i spoke to an aerospace engineer and head of aviation at university of west london he says the so-called one hundred airliner that caught fire is very modern with up to date safety standards. when the aircraft was certified a couple of years back as part the certification process the manufacturer has to prove that the aircraft can be evacuated and with this particular aircraft it demonstrated that it could be evacuated within seventy three seconds with mexican capacity which is about ninety five passengers so with slightly less passengers it's perfectly possible through the passengers to evacuate within a minute or two from the aircraft. the challenge here is that with an aircraft on fire usually isn't the fire that is the issue is the smoke that fills up within the cabin very very quickly. the the the reality is that the flight data recorders will

be taken from the aircraft they will be analyzed hopefully that the fire that has taken place is not damaged the flight data recorders that it will be able to figure out the course very very quickly. it's unlikely that human error would of course something like this it's more likely that it might have been mechanical failure. but it's difficult to assess at this stage what would be the cause but it does appear that the pilots were aware of the incident and that they they did their best to get the aircraft back onto the ground and to the airport which is what they did . and of course you know to evacuate the aircraft would have been their priority as soon as the aircraft landed. at least one thousand people including three children have been killed in rebel held northwest syria which continues to be bombed by government forces and russian warplanes a volunteer with the white helmets rescue is also died this weekend in an airstrike on a village in ed lead which has now been under attack for six days and an underground
