10:11 pm
a very tense amid war and. it seems that tripoli under this attack has 2 different faces one in the front line one of the fighters in the holy month of fasting do not have many options to fight and try to take a break a break at the same time but in the city center of tripoli a different face we're young people try to get out of the war all of the tension and their own way. as we approach the front line in southern tripoli. there is silence and uncertainty people have left this area and the homes and shops all ruined by war. a bleak landscape covered by small crumb missiles fired by warlords really for have to the forces to forces loyal to the government in. ains our neighborhood. by

10:13 pm
that though we try to alleviate the tension by just laughing joking and telling personal stories that's how time goes by here at the same time we're maintaining our location well and are always anticipating a possible counter-attack. time for coffee on a wood fire but as fire light can be spotted by drones they try to hide it. from government fighters here on the edge of tripoli this is their last defense fighting could break out at any moment and it's even more dangerous at night when half the jets usually attack this area but not far from here in the center of tripoli the situation is very different. here in the main square yon believe b.n. has come to enjoy you watching the drifting in a country that does not have many entertainment activities drifting has become a way out. it's entertaining but the. juris. yeah i like
10:14 pm
drifting it's fun i hope all libyans can have fun and get rid of that negative energy caused by the war. and it's risky and needs to be organized this should be police here to maintain order. but these young libyans here seem to be fascinated by the sport this is one of the city's landmarks and if the war gets any closer it could become another battlefield. tripoli. a cruise ship in venice has collided with a tourist boating during at least 4 people witnesses say the ship was coming in to dump when it crashed into the wharf and then the smaller boat the accident happened on a busy thoroughfare that leads to st mark's square. time now for a check of the world weather with every 10 fox and more flooding in the u.s. a year i'm afraid so far is a bit of an ongoing thing this not think we could be talking about this for for
10:15 pm
weeks rather than days it's a little quieter at the moment and you can see from the satellite picture there's a fair amounts of clear weather and some sunshine we got this chain of showers to sit in the way for the southwards and eastwards present tending to thin membrane but you see here in missouri this is what we're up against in this where we're going to be talking about this set up for weeks rather than days lots and lots of standing water in place and that's not going anywhere too quickly so the mishearing the mississippi of course we talked about this for some time now to continue to do so length of showers there just about the appalachians pushing up into the northeastern corner into new england eastern parts of canada just one or 2 showers creeping their way back into texas into oklahoma and into walk and so you see this next system starts to show its hand as we go on through monday it's going to drift its way further eastwards around so i mean for example as we go on through the next couple days so that's going to cause further problems exacerbating those floods
10:16 pm
that we do have already in place some flooding concerns to ensue mexico into the gulf you can see this little cluster of storms a spin swirling away here 60 percent chance of this developing into a tropical storm or possibly even the 1st hurricane of the season lots of wet weather to come with a risk of flooding here everton thank you very much for that still ahead on the al-jazeera news our new school is in northern nigeria for children who have been made by a book around violence in sports with joe the bruins took control of the stanley cup. and also against the news this thing that. it's my privilege to name al-jazeera english the broadcaster of the year the country has a fighting each other and we've been told that we can still hear this is the largest demonstration that's been held by women and their refugees since over

you're watching al jazeera live from doha a reminder of our top stories on this news hour secretary of state michael bell says the u.s. is ready to hold talks with iran with no preconditions but compare insists washington won't back down against what he calls iranian aggression. algeria's transitional government says it's counseling july's presidential election it's a move protesters have been demanding for weeks after the removal of president of the seas would defeat the us government and israeli forces have entered the al aqsa mosque compound in occupied east jerusalem they use pepper spray and detained a number of palestinians who were attending pray is at the mosque. germany's social democratic party leader has resigned casting dollars over the future of the ruling coalition the s.p.d.
10:19 pm
was you to vote on andrea now mrs position on tuesday after she chose to stay in coalition with going to merkel's conservatives the move was criticized by the party's left both parties in germany's winning coalition suffered heavy losses at last week's european parliamentary elections let's bring in dominic cain our correspondent in berlin so dominic what does this resignation mean for the social democrats. they were fully in the short term it means they have to find a new party leader and leader in parliament but that's just the start of their difficulties because as you were saying there this party is reaching historic lows in the opinion polls but also election results one poll out in the last few hours puts the party on 12 percent that is the worst poll rating that party has ever had and it gives you a sense of the dissatisfaction that there is in society with the social democrats the point to make here is that electorally this party is really has really has got
10:20 pm
the skates under it because if you look at the last 5 elections have taken place since and they're not us took the leadership of the party well the last 4 out of 5 of those elections the point to make here is that when the party agreed to go back into coalition a grand coalition with angela merkel's christian democrats there was a bitter debate within party in the party membership about whether it was the right thing or not to do at the time 2 thirds of party members voted to go into coalition saying that it was better to put germany's national interests ahead of the social democrats party interest but there were voices at the time that said no this is going to cause real difficulty for us in elections and so it has proved the question that social democrats will have to are not just about who is their leader what sort of policies do we want that leader to choose and to try to implement is whether they want to stay in government with angela merkel or they have
10:21 pm
a real dilemma if they were to pull out of the coalition government that might precipitate an early election and if their opinion poll ratings barely 14 percent in some 12 in others as i said if they were to be replicated in a general election well then there's very little chance whatsoever of the social democrats would get back into any kind of government so right now this question about what happens next is a very fundamental philosophical question that cuts right to the very heart of social democracy here in germany dominic cane in berlin thank you. u.s. president donald trump says britain should walk away from the e.u. and be prepared to leave with a no deal brek said as his latest comment in a controversial lead up to a 3 day u.k. state visit to all of our them i wouldn't pay $50000000000.00 a big number would be $50000000000.00 as big i'm only saying this from a simple i would not it's a tremendous number it will get what they want to walk away yes. this is their
10:22 pm
decision which is this clearly. if you don't get the deal you want if you don't get a fair deal then you walk away. al-jazeera is need baka has more from london. another bombshell intervention in british politics from donald trump a day before here arrives here in the u.k. for a 3 day state visit you know appears to be advocating a no deal breaks it which is likely to go down very well amongst british politicians who share that point of view including the ex foreign secretary and hard line breaks a tear boris johnson who donald trump described earlier as having the potential to be an excellent prime minister donald trump's words may well also be interpreted as meaning that the u.s. is prepared to cut trading relations and deals with the u.k. post brecht's it but given the ongoing trade wars we've china and trade disputes with mexico there are some here that the word about whether or not the u.k.
10:23 pm
can really trust trump going forward what's not going to go down very well among some of the established political parties here is trump suggestion that nigel farage the leader of the newly formed brics it party be involved in any kind of ongoing negotiations with the e.u. going forward the brics of party don't a significant blow against the leading conservative party in recent european parliamentary elections should we be surprised by trump's intervention ahead of his arrival here to the u.k. possibly not when he was last here last summer ahead of his working visit he suggested that the u.k. should sue the european union raising some questions over how much donald trump we really understand about the workings of european politics china has taken a firm stance on u.s. trade naming washington for the setback in negotiations beijing accuses the united

10:30 pm
a defense and security analyst in manila says it's an important area that needs to be monitored. it will be a listening and a monitoring air post for the philippine military because that area of that island is in the middle of 2 channels channel and well in tongue channel which are all waterways that connect the east china sea to the south china sea or portions of the rest of the pins the us we would call it here and that is a major interdiction point ok so. i will be frank here by saying that chinese military vessels for example can be monitored in terms of their ingress and egress all of that of the south china sea or is trying to see leading towards the central pacific so. the possibility of that playing a very big role in in monitoring those activities is quite high and of course there
10:31 pm
is always the potential for base improvement knowledge base improvement by itself need actually not just be a unilateral affair by the philippines because we have to remember that the philippine in that diary is works very closely with the united states military so it is also possible that such a facility me be assisted by the us government in matters of installing sensitive listening and monitoring devices there and even perhaps upgrading the could be abilities of the philippine military to undertake its missions and its mandate in that particular part of the philippines. in mexico nearly 8 and a half 1000 people were mad in the 1st 3 months of this year present pace of adore has promised to tackle the problem with a new security force called the national guard john heilemann has the latest nasiri is now looking at the president's 1st 6 months in office and. record murder levels
