11:46 am
which has resulted in the deaths of four israelis as well in southern israeli cities so those are the pictures from a few days ago and this is the scene right now relative calm across gaza as it has been for the past few hours the latest coming up where it has and seek and the rest of the team in just a few moments here on al-jazeera. russia has jeopardized the united states security interests we know what you are doing and you will not succeed perceptions from the outside looking. into the picture from the inside. i think russia's foreign policy is too soft. russian goals to retreat. if you will russia coming soon on all jews you. but i made a decision every week a new cycle brings
11:47 am
a series of breaking stories and then of course there's donald trump told through the eyes of the world's jannah least that's right out of a hamas script that calls for the annihilation of israel but that is not what that phrase means at all he joined the listening post as we turned the cameras on the media and focused on how they were caught on the stories that matter the most him better use a free palestine a listening post on al-jazeera. examining the headlines a collapsed economy beats the many people are struggling to survive setting the discussions it but having to wait i don't think you can look away any longer sharing personal stories with a global audience explore an abundance of world class programming designed to inform the media's motivate and inspire. the world is watching on al-jazeera. becoming

11:50 am
southern israel during the violence of the past few days tesla name is in the israeli city of ashkelon. the renewed violence between hamas and israel came near the start of the a samik holy month of ramadan it also was near the time when this week israelis were slated to celebrate their independence day the following week tell of was hosting the euro vision music competition and expecting tourists from around the world as has been the case previously both sides seem to signal that they were not interested in seeing a further escalation yet this time things had progressed farther than they had since the gaza war in two thousand and fourteen in terms of the death toll hamas is said to be frustrated that israel had not allegedly honored its previous agreements to help ease the suffering of gazans the u.s.
11:51 am
president donald trump is backing israel in a tweet he said once again israel faces a barrier of deadly rocket attacks by terrorist groups house and islamic jihad we support israel one hundred percent in its defense of its citizens to the gazan people these terrorist acts against israel will bring you nothing but more misery end the violence and work towards peace it can happen. on the other developing story the u.s. sending an aircraft carrier group to the middle east to send what it calls a clear message to iran the u.s.s. abraham lincoln and support ships have been dispatched the carrier was due to dock in croatia on wednesday u.s. national security adviser john bolton says it is in response to troubling developments in the region the latest u.s. effort and increasing pressure on iran is live for us in washington so again this is part of a white house statement that was put out so that explains this further what did it
11:52 am
say. it's a very unexpected an unusual statement from the white house it came a little bit before nine pm local time here in washington on sunday night totally unexpected the statement was short but it did mention that and it's from john bolton the national security advisor that said as you mentioned they're going to be u.s. is going to be deploying the u.s.s. abraham lincoln strikeforce group puts a kid aircraft carrier plus some. of the ships around it plus some bombers to the middle east region and i want to read part of the statement that's key it says they're being sent to the region to quote unquote send a clear and unmistakable message to the iranian regime that any attack on the united states interests or on those of our allies will be met with unrelenting force statement just goes on to say in part the united states is not seeking war
11:53 am
with their reign in regime but we are fully prepared to respond to any attack now there's two key things that need to be brought up here number one is that this particular aircraft carrier the u.s.s. abraham lincoln had already been deployed from the united states in on april april first so it had already been on a deployment and as you mentioned it was supposed to be in croatia may eighth. through eleventh dock there for some normal procedures but it appears that now it's being diverted to the middle east region now it's not unusual for aircraft carriers and battle groups such as this to be deployed to the region the gulf region as a deterrent to iran but what is unusual is this this is a pretty significant deployment here with the bombers it's not just a normal aircraft carrier it's a really a battle group if you will and also what's unusual is that normally the white house
11:54 am
would not issue a statement with such bellicose language basically saying we're sending this these military assets to this region specifically looking at you iran which is essentially what john bolton said there i want to conclude briefly that just within the last half hour the wall street journal newspaper here in the united states is reporting that this decision to move this aircraft carrier to the region was just made within the last couple days after meetings throughout the weekend that according to the wall street journal least one source that they have in their article that just came out said that this is due to new intelligence that's been received by the united states new intelligence of iran possibly moving some military assets around that could could according to the wall street journal jeopardize u.s. assets or u.s. excuse me u.s. interests in the gulf region that according to the wall street journal beyond that
11:55 am
though no other information we did reach out to the department of defense all they did was would do is confirm to us this deployment of this aircraft carrier in the bombers but beyond that would not give us any more details. gable for the moment thanks for that said life force in washington. now president trump is stepping up pressure on china to reach a trade deal his announced tariff increases on chinese good chinese goods trump said tariffs on two hundred billion dollars worth of chinese products will rise to twenty five percent on friday stock markets have reacted nervously with losses in the u.s. hong kong and shanghai adrian brown is live for us now with more on this a.g.m. what is the thinking behind this and how is is china likely to react. well all we have at the moment are these so far one confirmed reports in
11:56 am
a number of u.s. media outlets saying that president trump is going to be essential raising tariffs on from ten to twenty five percent on some two hundred billion dollars worth of chinese products this was what president trump tweeted now it's being reported by these news organizations that china is going to pull out of what was supposed to be the final round of trade talks this week between china and the united states talks that have been going on remember now for more than ten months talks that was supposed to finally resolve the trade well now it all seems to be in doubt once more i think what the chinese side and now trying to do is to work out whether president trump was speaking in a private capacity about this warning or whether he was speaking on behalf of the u.s. government and his trade representatives now the chinese media is reporting that stock markets here in china have fallen quite significantly on monday the sions an
11:57 am
index by more than six percent shanghai by around about five percent but the media's not reporting the reasons why the stock markets are falling now we still don't know at the moment whether lou her who is china's vice president vice premier who's in charge of the chinese negotiating team will leave for washington as shuttle today or tomorrow because those talks are supposed to resume on wednesday if he doesn't go then i think it's fair to assume that these trade talks from now are over so this is a moment where you know once again stock markets in china have been rattled and really those stock markets are a picture of real fragility on monday. in many ways a surprise is this shouldn't come as a huge surprise given trump's affinity for for tariffs but. you kind of have to wonder how what's in their thinking given that china does have
11:58 am
a lot of leverage of its own here to respond in kind. yes and no i mean we have to remember that of course china exports far more to the united states than the other way around so the united states has more potential targets to go after now president trump has also warned by the way that he's also prepared now too. begin slapping tariffs on products chinese products that aren't subject to judy's at the moment some three hundred twenty five billion dollars worth of chinese goods now if that were to happen it would mean that the u.s. is now applying tariffs to everything that china exports to the united states but we have to remember this president trumper said that these new tariffs will come into effect on friday that is five days from now the key is will new her china's chief trade negotiator now go to washington or not if he doesn't go there
11:59 am
as i say these trade talks for now are over. a jim brown live for us there in beijing thanks. least forty one people have died in russia after a plane caught fire as it made an emergency landing at the aeroflot flight was forced to return to moscow's sharon yet of the air force shortly after taking off for him how much has the details. plane's burst from air flow to fight fourteen ninety two as it came in for an emergency landing at moscow's sheremetyevo airport and bounced off the runway. by the time the sukhoi superjet one hundred came to a halt it was engulfed in fire seventy eight passengers and crew onboard. only thirty seven made it off alive the flight a taken off from the same airport just thirty minutes earlier heading for the northern city of months. the airline said it was forced to turn around due to
12:00 pm
technical reasons flight radar tracking shows it circled twice over moscow before making the emergency landing russian investigators have launched a criminal inquiry now but to some i looked on there were seventy three passengers and five crew members twenty eight passengers are now at the airport terminal investigators and psychologists are working with them five people have been hospitalized thirty seven out of seventy eight people on board of the plane survived thirty three passengers and four crew members. the superjet one hundred came into service in russia and twenty eleven the first new passenger jet developed since the fall of the soviet union a year later a plane on a demonstration tore to indonesia crashed on mount solich killing all forty five people on board that accident was blamed on human error to the intensity of the fire it may consume a lot of physical evidence.
