i like them to help us out for not staying with us. hello there we've got yet another weather system that's making its way across turkey at the moment take a look at the satellite picture we can see the cloud is coming up from the northeastern parts of africa and then making its way a few showers across lebanon and then up towards parts of turkey where we're seeing the majority of those showers the whole system is working its way eastwards we'll see more showers over parts of georgia there as we head into wednesday we get more wet weather for us particularly northern parts of turkey as we head through the day for the south it is hot now in baghdad will see a temperature of around thirty three and as we head through towards terror on the temperatures there also on the rise here will be up to twenty eight period of course with a hotter than either of those places around thirty eight at the moment i think for tuesday we'll see the winds coming down from the northwest so that should be

a clearer direction not quite as much hazy weather around but clouds aren't too far away and it looks like that we back as we head through the day a wednesday quite a few areas of cloud over parts of saudi arabia in the northeast and also in bahrain as well so a lot of effort thirty two degrees should be our maximum temperature down towards the southern parts of africa and the majority of the showers here are in the southern parts of our map quite a bit of cloud here over the southern parts of south africa that's making things here a little bit cooler than they might be otherwise we'll see a top temperature in cape town of around eighteen degrees. in a two part series. observes the lives of two. twenty years. in science circumstances cloyd's.

fisheries in the world here in a photo island in norway is under threat unless things change you know this is a remarkable story people have been fishing for caudle scray as it's known have more than seven thousand years and today this fishery is worth tens of millions of dollars but all that it seems is now at risk this is what made norway rich long before oil told all scray in then millions filled drying racks across the lafave denial and wind off the wind to fishermen here have cashed in on the annual migration south from the barents sea it is a tradition that goes back thousands of the is called is cold it's got it and then it's held out to dry for several months and what you end up with is a dried fish that retains nearly one hundred percent of its nutrition apprise delicacy from its only to nigeria this is what supply the vikings on

a long voyages to far off lands and still now is a big part of the norwegian economy with millions of dollars to fish comes from the barents sea and its goals to look for to spawn. and that's because of the atlantic stream to the left extreme it stops by locals and brings food it brings that higher temperature even though it's not warm but it's high high enough to spawn and it's a very delicate ecosystem in that fragility is spelled out by a remove scientific research as a changing climate and warmer ocean temperatures upset the balance of the marine ecosystem meaning the scray may be forced out and then it's a question of where they go obviously it keeps things keep warming some of those true polar species might. not have a whole lot of places to go if they're being out competed by sort of these other species moving north and where you see might see some considerable changes there

this ca give nielson cold thirteen thousand kilos of cold it's been a pretty good season but he's worried about the future climate change could change everything. they're called suddenly stopped because they'd be warmer and going at all around the dollar north so then being the how bad a big program every arab spring comes they called league their return has always been a certainty and in the city not just for the fishermen if the seals seabirds and whales that feed on them now this extraordinary feat of nature is under threat the outcome as ever depends on the political will to act in a time of global crisis say from ancient man to the vikings to today the arctic cold has provided an invaluable food source and this species is a critical part of the biosphere but who knows what the future holds. pakistan's

thirty minutes earlier heading for the northern city. the airline said it was forced to turn around due to technical reasons flight radar tracking shows it circled twice over moscow before making the emergency landing russian investigators have launched a criminal inquiry. to some i looked on there were seventy three passengers and five crew members twenty eight passengers are now at the terminal investigators on 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 a super jet 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 a killing all forty five people on board that accident was blamed on human error

through the intensity of the fire it may consume a lot of physical evidence so we'll have to wait and see i didn't see any. rescue equipment any early pictures at the scene so that may be an issue as well where was the equipment and what kind of equipment they have available to put the fire out but the recorders will give us some indication and this type of action i think the the cockpit voice recorder may be most beneficial this i believe it's the third accident in total for this type of airplane and so it's it's been proven to be a pretty reliable platform. so it's going to be interesting to see what comes out of it so corey has struggled to convince international airlines to buy its jets proving the planes are safe will be crucial to the future of a project that had been a source of russian pride mohammed al jazeera. government schools across sri lanka have reopened two weeks after suicide attacks on easter sunday catholic schools

hello and welcome to the program i'm richelle carey and the past decade thousands of eritreans looking to improve their lives in europe have become stranded in libya detained during the early goal trance or rescued from drowning the mediterranean refugees are sent to detention centers but the battle for control of the capital tripoli has left them exposed to the dangers of war and going days without food the united nations high commissioner for refugees has intervened and relocated migrants . safer areas all sending some to other countries among them a group of one hundred fifty nine eritrean nationals were sent to ms sherrod before being relocated to a third country and that has not gone down well with eritrea's government the foreign ministry some of the u.n.h.c.r. her present have to protest against the action and the minister of information eman mesko issued a statement on twitter saying this doing it c.r.s. latest act has no rationale or basis and law and amplifies its harmful eligibility

guidelines which require require that is urgent rectification fifty eritreans have returned home voluntarily from libya in the past few weeks while another eighteen are scheduled to arrive before we get to our discussion let's take a look back at the country eritrea it was part of the larger federation of ethiopia until one nine hundred ninety three that here eritreans voted for independence and joined the united nations becoming africa's newest state at the time but by nineteen ninety eight relations with ethiopia soured tiring a dispute over shared borders that led to two years of conflict in which one hundred thousand people were killed here is the fighting in instability have hurt eritrea's agricultural economy making it one of africa's poorest nations the united nations estimates that hundreds of thousands have since left for europe searching for a better life. let's bring

our guests now into the conversation in london suliman hussein chairman of citizens for a democratic rights in eritrea in nairobi to say a tech play researcher for the horn of africa for amnesty international gentleman thank you very much for your time so on what grounds is eritrea making this demand that they say they want their citizens back. thank you. it is not entirely clear to me on what grounds the written government is making in this the months and it is not necessarily. a negative thing in itself but this is a question of this return is did not suddenly come to the surface really and israel is have been in libya for a number of years more than ten years and the region government has been always

silent about the suffering of the citizens in libya in scene i and elsewhere and the military man so this sudden interest in the lives of or conditions of little citizens is not entirely clear to me but i hope it's not just for the political consumption and to see your recollection have they ever done something like this before. to my recollection that interim government has totally ignored. the exodus of the written youngsters their time government knows perfectly why this and that is our credit where it's because of the high level of credible progression inside the country it's because of the indefinite national service or the military service it's because of the unlikely with the few million see the has been going on in eritrea it is because of

all these things that a lot of more than three hundred according to some serious of things there is left the country in the last ten years and this is the first time there isn't a government. actually expresses interest in the conditions of the returns even in libya. mimo the furthur on this like a couple of years ago. some were even a slaughtered by by isis we didn't hear any out of condemnation within see any attempt from the regional government to reign to repatriate its citizens when every other car if you can country was showing interest rate it is of citizeness motivator as were captured by the human traffickers there are a lot of stories of rape of. the free and the treatment of the hundreds of. dancers in libya is very on human traffickers this is the first time that in

government is showing this kind of interest is. one can only guess why but it's probably i believe probably the do the changes in the horn of africa etiquette editor and government probably is feeling like a southie right there except i want to pick up on that point in just a moment but first i want to put a similar question to say at the say what is what do you make of this interest that eritrea is now expressing and its citizens that have fled. but. still a month has already paid it's not clear pfizer government these days is showing that i see the fascination of a theory as to the contrary i just think a lot of time that's the right time in the sciences where. certified and a few g.'s and asylum seekers have been retarded before some time before i was over two or three i was rather retarded. yeah

from the media. but this is where he began to get out of my complaining guy again as united nations again. a fascinating part of. relocating the editor has to nigeria is something i'm president there may be so many speculations about that that's the government has unearthed a lot of speculation is that they don't government is trying to put itself on a lot of great sacrifice human rights organization human rights claim to be. their last prime limey and. as you may know if it has become a member of. the model rights council at the un and that from working themselves that's my friend. i'm expected to meet that. i'm going to want to.

i can see that bracelet you know to think of you have to imagine that. because of. the leaks. but i felt like pressure right to say to themselves. human rights rightly. so let me ask you this do so as we reported at the top of the show some eritreans are voluntarily returned home but does. eritrea having a legal right to this demand that people be returned to them i mean i realize are publicly pushing the issue but do they legally have a leg to stand on. that must not humanize stand up and if you don't stand a nearly impossible to convert you. should always be born and. it's not the consideration of the state of origin with my god it is not the concern

of the state of. ontario for the sins of my daughter it is. voluntary the content of the people will be returned. even if it is that i have complained right now that this should be defeated should be rethought meant. the commission should follow all sorts should follow always is the consent of the people. summa what will happen to these people that have returned what do you believe they face when they get back to eritrea. there is a history i think it would be. important to remind ourselves of some basic fact this. in two thousand and two. were deported forcibly and it's a migrant or asylum seekers promoter and the amnesty international has reported

that they have been kept incommunicado and suffered systematic torture on there also been instances where. some return refugees were deported from egypt at the same fate many of them are actually died some of the middle of the country again so the the history of repatriation of course the department to is. is not in favor of the recent government what i believe the written government should do rather now is to change the condition is that led to these people fleeing the country because we seem to forget that these are not some sort of economic migrants these are people who fled the country because of human rights violation because the open ended national service because of the repressive policies of the government unit there now is the situation back

on changes i believe many of them with the interim the go back to an affair without even the government demanded it but as to the. blame game between the units they are. there and government i'm not sure why it one of the speculation could be what this i just said because it's not a member of the. human rights council but we also know that in the early ninety's when there were three or when it's them independence we had more than half a million eritrean refugees and they were not repatriated to israel although they express an interest to about the. home areas but there were many of them are still reason shouldn't cause there was some sort of this agreement between the government of india and the. i want to bring. someone else into the conversation now below a chief executive officer of m b r networks it's

a media company we appreciate you coming into this conversation and the question that i want to put to you is there are reports that some of the new recruits to eritrea's national service have been told that in the future they were only be asked to serve eighteen months as opposed to this unlimited time when they've really been giving up their lives which is a reason a lot of them have been fleeing that's not official yet but do you think that that is a possibility that that is something that could change in the country. where you know the it sounds to be a better man. these are the current situation but every cheer is going through a very special time since it opened up a little bit by signing a peace agreement with. it so there is a feeling that. things should change faster and more authority and so sometimes some kind of reforms are not enough anymore people really

want to transform mission they want. really things to change totally so. i don't think we still see people fleeing and because the system had not change really and that what people expect. the there was a lot of hope that the peace agreement we fit g.o.p. a will contribute to interior internal change but so far. people are sitting on the fence and waiting why was that opportunity not see is that that. that moment of hope that glimmer of hope that people had why why did that not change and eritrea well if you won't change saul quickly so easily you know that was a very weird system every tria we know of dictatorial system all over africa we know of authoritarian system of system where the constitution is not running

where really but the kind of system where you have a draft people spending young people spending like twenty years in the national service people paying taxes on their salary when even while abroad if they want to maintain sort of a good relationship with the country you know the the can of things which happen there are just so. unprecedented you don't see that everywhere and where you have a head of state would never goes out practically you don't seem at the u.n. at the united at the african union summits you're really a very second country is is very special so they have built up a system which. will probably change because you know you never know when when you are sort of a frozen kountry and and something happens like

a little opening up you know you don't know how far i can go so we need and nothing is impossible as start as soon as you start change maybe there will be . created sort of a dynamic where it goes faster that what you want it but or it goes deeper that what you intended in the first place but now is only a few months into into the change i mean the has remained with the opiah. in the geopolitics you have change a lot of families a front for jobs of this book internally. more to determine if a sailor may bring you into this if if in fact this unlimited national service if there were a limit were going to be put on it perhaps this eighteen months that some recruits say they have been told would that be a fundamental shift a fundamental change in the way things work in eritrea could that be

a corner turned in some way. yes. and it's natural for national service in israel. a good place to start. a generation of. ninety nine nine hundred ninety years has been. because of this. national start of this proclamation a. reformist america. since two thousand and one. way. to go away.

is the president. called. them as they call the for reform they. are going to speak to be implemented but the response from the government. to get a reason some are saying are you talking about when things started to. yes people i've been in prison in two thousand and one. and. these religious leaders have been in prison for a long time and they have been. they have not been. to prison by any part of. life and now we don't know exactly. so given the situation.

national said recently. the government has to leave these people oh. it's a kind of fate they have to disclose what happened ok let me. get out of so many people who have been in prison for a long time not to those high profile people those people have to be in the stores ok and so that point it's difficult as you all know to actually get firm numbers on that but there are some international organizations that say that there may be as many as fourteen thousand people and military presence alone sumanda what does eritrea actually face any external pressure to change anything. i'm not sure of the external pressure but there is a lot of internal pressure building of risk because now. the indefinite national survey is the only just occasion given by the editor an authority if so far was the

no year no war no peace situation between the israel and egypt air and war. coming in at any time that if your pia which is the huge large country to the saudis is a separate the national security of your affair and the government was in this way it needed to keep those youngsters in indefinite manner now one is this. situation as come to an end. and. are no more a tour but rather the seem to be friends know and and that it is not suffering in the international section sanctions anymore the public including those who are in support of the government are putting a lot of pressure even from the ranks of the government itself that it needs. without any further delay to come to know them and see to implement concision to

implement busy rule of law and integrate into the international community once again and to to accept this the people of its citizens who have the rights and have the right to have a say in the running of the country is it to be the sit with the political situation in the area has to come to an end ok i. have the last word on this you said a moment ago that there that there was hope right what do you think the turning point could be for there to be change in eritrea as you mentioned there was hope that perhaps sort of normalizing relations with ethiopia could be the difference what do you think the difference can be. if you mention about the. external pressure i don't believe in it at all because we see how every chair has we could withstand fresh air for for details so that's not the point i think what the

external world could be could do is to a knowledge every positive step they are doing and really to make change attractive and i think there is a in relation from ethiopia which has been. improving relationship you know doing bold moves towards it they've retreated to to woods or position towards i mean internal peace and you see how the international community reacts to that i think that's the kind of interaction it could do with every trip like this thing with the draft being limited restricted to eighteen months like. even how the accepted to end war and and and a to make peace with with the european i think internally it would help them.

let's say release the. yes let's say the grip on the system you know this repression which has been now a second habit i think it's this positive look at a rich area and and encouraging their leaders to to change and say yes you are on the right path and if you do so we are we are willing to help and they are saying to boycott or sure that you are bad people but we we we we want to help and you are yourself you are making the fire you're saying they secularism china should come from you so you're. they are saying basically way for one ok ok thank you mr mayor below and thank you to all of our guests for joining us who say to say attack clay and marie. and thank you for watching as well

brokered by egypt on qatar after three days of rocket attacks on southern israel from gaza and israeli strikes on the palestinian territories well twenty five palestinians have been killed including a fourteen month old child and two pregnant women and rockets fired from gaza have killed four people in southern israel natasha going to reports from the israel gaza border. palestinian and israeli families continue to bury their dead as the cease fire took effect on monday morning. almost thirty people were killed during the worst cycle of violence between hamas and israel since the gaza war in two thousand and fourteen. of those killed include a four month old baby a man running for cover at a senior hamas commander in london. headed on the scene was a horrible dust was everywhere it was so dark you couldn't see your own hands i was

shocked to see a woman laying on the ground and her limbs were everywhere fighters in gaza launched more than six hundred rockets into israel for its part israel launched air strikes hitting three hundred fifty targets in heavily populated areas of gaza a targeted strike killed a hamas commander in his car. get hamas and israel seemed eager to deescalate the situation quickly. monday was the start of the a sonic fasting month of ramadan this week israeli celebrate their national day and next week people from around the world will travel to tel aviv to see the euro vision music competition some israelis living near the gaza fence and opposition leaders criticize prime minister benjamin netanyahu for agreeing to the cease fire to feel sufficiently good because the political i think that a cease fire at this moment is a terrible mistake i think that when we have the upper hand we need once and for

all finish the terror because this will repeat itself and will not stop. dozens returning to the rubble of their homes hit by israeli airstrikes were relieved there was a pause in the violence however temporary the laskar mission between hamas and israel was an april. newcomb had been killed on the. we hope the war ends because enough destruction enough people are losing their lives in these wars israelis don't distinguish between the civilians and not civilians in the last several years there has been a periodic cycle of violence followed by egyptian mediators negotiating a cease fire and then what's called a return to call how long this call will last will likely depend on israel's willingness to ease the humanitarian situation in gaza and whether hamas abides by its commitment to see these attacks natasha going to aim. along the israel gaza

border where you're a drum is a retired israeli air force colonel and was a spokesman for former prime minister's itzhak rabin and shimon peres in the one nine hundred ninety s. he says both israel and the palestinian groups want the ceasefire to hold. both sides have interests to keep it hamas doesn't want those demonstrations against. this to happen again and that the now it's time to form his government and to. assure is base that he's on top of things so i think it will hold the question is. will it lead to another cycle in the few months all can we move towards something else this should be ways in which to alleviate the living conditions of the people of gaza and indeed guess what was the first to suggest if not the i.d.f. itself so it's up to this really government to take some steps benefiting on

this cease fire and to see how we can get together with egypt's qatar maybe they can really do something for their welfare of the gaza the problem is that gaza is controlled by the from us and you know that qatar gives a lot of money to hamas and you don't know how much of it goes instead of the neat people who needed to building a talk tunnels into israel so we have a problem here but we should definitely take a positive approach and think about the welfare of the people of gaza as the main priority well most often barghouti is the secretary general of the palestinian national initiative he says frustration has been growing in gaza on how to end the israeli occupation. they have used peaceful protests against the israeli operation under siege and the result of that was the killing of two hundred twenty palestinians by the israeli army including that i was on the job who was

a first it's provider and three other health providers including many journalists and this was a violation of every best correct now when israel. strikes of course that has a good bit of good luck and we have this look as if the united states is the one they can understand i think is to provide come out with more sophisticated equipment so that they can directed more property but i do not think from the defense of what happened during this three day how mass was targeting the civilians it was in the end up getting the city so the israelis were killed two of them were soldiers went the if palestinians were killed more than twenty plus of them were stripped is the solution is to fix the removing the siege completely the siege is inhuman and acceptable and should be left to complete and the second thing is something to understand from the palestinian problem is in the fact that we are in those places

we are now subjected to a system. that has to end without finding a patient which has become going to just look at patients and mothers. turkey's electional authority has cancelled the results of istanbul's mayoral elections following weeks of pressure by the ruling party state media is reporting that election officials of the one of the vote which saw the opposition's c.h.b. candidate installed as the city's mayor at the end of march president other ones party had controlled the commercial capital for fifteen years so i'm costello is live for us now from istanbul what more can you tell us about this decision by the election commission and why is it happening. well the solution by the higher electoral board has been long awaited by mainly the government or it is because they have been arguing that there were irregular irregularities in devoted and the difference between the winner and main opposition candidate

a clever mole and al gore to candidate been earlier that imho is the former prime minister was at fourteen thousand and having this much difference. cannot be possible that's what the government said that's what prisons are down south so the heart of victoria board gathered today after after some discussions and. after the meeting was over a higher total board member from a party and now says that they have cancelled the election in istanbul and there will be a new election on june twenty third just. almost two months away and also we've just received the lines that we just received the news that director of vote also canceled the men date for mayor akram. who who was who won the election as a candidate from the opposition republican. the nation's alliance for no it's

a huge deal because as soon as this announcement was done by the higher the actor award member the turkish lira that has been suffering against the dollar for the last one year started to lose value from fire. if ninety nine it went down to a six point eleven markets markets are over there reacting against the decision and a criminal stumble mayor said that he's waiting for an official statement by the higher by the way the higher the door award hasn't given an official statement yet and he will be also the speeches for the for his looters. like in one of the house hours so everybody's waiting for acrimony molo and his reaction against the higher electoral board decision. party our views that there are irregularities and they argue that there are members. of the members who have been keeping an eye on the ballot boxes. were not public officers however did list the

name the name list have been an ounce by the local authorities and more than one month prior to election so parties. arguments claims are not welcomed by the c.h.p. and the main goal of named it as a dictatorship so them thank you. in istanbul he's a political analyst and managing editor of the daily newspaper how surprised are you by this ruling from the election board and what are they basing this decision on. well we were r.b.c. three scenarios one was that the top election body would reject the claims and the other one was that they would accept our party's claims and or partially order one of the other scenarios was that they could partially hold elections in some districts how surprising this election i mean we have to look at two sides if we

look at our party sides from day one they're very confident in their claims over irregularities across our system all particularly for the metropolitan misspell of the position so in that sense if we look at our party's side it is not unsurprising this it isn't however if we are of course for the opposition parties i guess this is surprising for them but at the end of the day this is a decision that must be ok saturday by all sides mehmet i mean critics will say that the at party didn't like the results of the male election back in march which saw the c.h.b. opposition wins and were determined to change the result at any cost to favor the act party well i think that's the first all that's under that criticism is undermining the top electoral bodies decision making mechanisms these are very.
