it's a nationwide strike now and it's a nationwide civil disobedience announced officially today by the needs of the protest and you know that has been instigated by the action of the military today so 2 things happened i told about told you about 11 of those the other thing is that until now we had only as that problem inside the city itself but with the action taken this morning the military has actually dispersed the city and across other cities so instead of one place in front of the army headquarters easily controlled or easy money told by the military now they have forced this fred force them to spread it across the streets and that we have seen today it'll be interesting to see how it unfolds and of course we're hoping that they'll be less bloodshed certainly not as intense as it was earlier today now really out so we spoke to a maid who is an eyewitness at the royal hospital which is close to the main protest site in khartoum and he described to us the situation at the hospital.
10:01 pm
to ration is really messy bloody this is one of the bloodiest days of. any history we have more like more than $100.00 and. injuries serious injuries. we have more than. 50. died today this. actions seriously it's a lengthy very bloody day it's live ammunition injuries or sure. shots in the head. in different body voice. mails females different. it's messy and still you can hear some from time to time some some
10:02 pm
some noises. live ammunition on the place with out on the holes with them. supplies are not allowed to come and. those are the. people. we're going to be so many calls for people to send us more supplies. really we're running out of supplies we need more volunteers all of the capacity. but it is almost. well there's been a lot of international reaction to the events in sudan diplomats in sudan have been reacting to the actions of the military joined by the u.s. embassy in khartoum says the attack on protesters and civilians is wrong and must stop it says the responsibility for stopping the attack lies with the military council while the british ambassador to sudan says there is no excuse for any such attack will keep a close eye on all the developments out of sudan for you and bring you all the

latest here on al-jazeera and this plenty more ahead on this news hour including how a social program in mexico and supporting young farmers out of poverty and crack down on pry cross we speak to young former vigilantes in nigeria who took up arms against iran and the golden state warriors fight back against the toronto raptors to square the n.b.a. final series one of the best of the action coming up meet a with. other world news donald trump has arrived in britain for a 3 day state visit in his 1st official engagement the u.s. president and his wife melania attended a ceremony whole said by queen elizabeth the 2nd and other members of the royal family at buckingham palace a tram served up controversy even before he arrived in the u.k. commenting on breck's it on and on who should replace prime minister to resign me
10:04 pm
let's go to laurin sydney who is live outside buckingham palace for is so controversy even before the visit began how has it gone so far lawrence any form. yes well i mean clearly all the pomp and ceremony that buckingham palace can lay on was afforded to president trump exactly what he wants the optics of course of all is for an american audience which is very fond of the rule family exactly what she wants to see but clearly he's very irritated by a lot of things about brit. politics he hadn't even landed in his plane before he was tweeting rude things about the mayor of london who's a longtime critic and it is very strange that at exactly the point in time when the british establishment is trying as hard as it can to roll the red carpet out of a president there is so much protest and it's going to carry on and probably get bigger next 48 hours there the phrase special relationship which is used to describe the relationship between the u.s. and the u.k.
10:05 pm
was coined by winston churchill after the 2nd world war and really i think it's an arguable that since then there has been no point in time when relations between 2 such supposedly close allies have been mired in such controversy. no doubt this is the picture president trump has been waiting for the rebellious american leader seems also to crave acceptance an audience with her majesty is a great prize even for him but his visit is still enormously difficult for the u.k. to manage state visits are supposed to be delicately choreographed things where diplomatic language trumps all else but it is business as usual in either the u.s. nor u.k. nowadays and this president created arguments even before he landed he's embroiled in an ongoing round with meghan markle the duchess of sussex her husband prince harry will meet the president but she is staying at home there's
10:06 pm
a potential for an argument with prince charles over the environments the leaders of opposition political parties and the speaker of the house of commons have all boycotted the state banquet of buckingham palace and even as his plane was landing trump described the mayor of london a longtime critic as a stone cold loser. kind of history because the previous he was saying things about it when trump was usually. there is the famous story of the baby in the diapers it's going to be floating around. so. reviving the feud. and all that is before the politics are supposed to begin when the show jewel this they could not have known that this would be the last week of stories amazed prime minister whatever they talk about will be dealing with a different prime minister by july. for the presidency it's an open question whether he's more interested in the optics
10:07 pm
back home of talking about trade or sitting with the queen he keeps talking about his scottish roots and forms for britain what britain thinks of him is less certain . and so to top it all off you have bricks it's as well to contend with and completely extraordinary situation where there's a leadership race inside the conservative party to take over as prime minister from some reason may and comes after candid almost falling over each other not doing themselves to say that they would support hard bracks it's the end of october when the extension from the european union runs out in the interests of getting some sort of trade deal primarily with the united states and so they're desperate to try to talk to donald trump about that here and yet at the same time because there is so much public antagonism towards trump so much concern about things like low quality american food flooding british markets attempts by american pharmaceutical companies to take over parts of the prize national health service that those same
10:08 pm
british politicians who want to harm and want to support donald trump are actually having to distance old distance themselves to some extent from some of his views you couldn't make any of it up thank you for that. in london let's speak some more about the. u.s. president's visit to britain now with gina rinehart tyll is an associate professor and senior lecturer at the university of essex she joins us live from london thank . very much for being with us on al-jazeera this is supposed to be in said the oldest and most crucial relationship in the world between the u.s. and the u.k. but it's been march marked by so much disagreement majorly how important do you think is this particular visit by donald trump and will it we affirm the so-called special relationship i think this visit is very important for a few reasons for one thing we are getting into the stages where anything donald
10:09 pm
trump says or does is colored with the upcoming election next year and so to him it's really critical to be seen as very special to be seen as it's able to relate to the queen with the queen to him this is something that a lot of people don't get to do and so that's really important and for the u.k. it's also pretty important because as has been mentioned he the u.k. is faced with a very complicated situation trying to exit the european union and trump has not made any secret of his opinions on that matter and so it's a really delicate line to walk but you know a lot of people wonder what's the point of talks with theresa may want to in just a week or maybe a few weeks donald trump will be dealing with another prime minister do you think they they can reach the spoke deal on breck's it. i don't
10:10 pm
think that's going to happen i think that. there will be quite a bit of sort of behind the scenes or off camera dialogue and that donald trump is going to probably send out some rather brash or scandalous tweets afterwards he's been saying nice things about 3 semi just recently but in general has not been that kind to her in the things that he's said and really he's made it clear that he thinks that boris johnson should be the next prime minister and being that nobody can guarantee for him that that will be the case then i don't think he's going to actually say there's any sort of deal until there is a new prime minister and there's also gina a different opinion about china and in particular what type of relationship to maintain with the chinese telecom giant way do you think they can find common
10:11 pm
ground on that always you know just not going to happen as well. i think at this point no that's not going to happen and one of the reasons is that theresa may really is sort of a lame duck prime minister right now there's very little that she can commit and yet at the same time there aren't a lot of people with whom can negotiate other than theresa may and because of that there are unlikely to be any terms that will come out that will actually come to fruition i think at this point more than anything trump is trying to assert his opinions and take a stance on where he believes the united kingdom should fall in terms of bragg's it but otherwise he's really just trying to shore up his base in the united states and and get a lot of good accolades i think is what he's hoping from his visit wink wink you so much for sharing your views with us gina rinehart is associate professor at the university of texas x. x. x. x. live there from london. the emergency talks are about to begin between top u.s.
10:12 pm
and mexican officials to try and stop a threat on all mexican goods mexico's economy minister is will meet with the u.s. counterpart to discuss a 5 percent tax on june the 10th and could rise to 25 percent over the coming months unless mexico president said stop the flow of migrants over the border in mexico relations minister is also coming to washington on wednesday for similar talks let's go to my kana in washington d.c. mike the mexican foreign minister has been speaking earlier i understand sounding optimistic what can we expect from talks with u.s. officials and is there a chance that the u.s. administration will back down from these threats were imposed on all mexican imports. yes indeed well it was a very high powered mexican delegation that held a news conference in the early hours of the morning there's the secretary for
10:13 pm
agriculture the treasury the foreign secretary all here to hold talks with the u.s. counterparts over the next few days now it was made very clear at that news conference by the foreign secretary in particular that he believes that there is a solution in the offing he believes that it is possible to get to some agreement in these talks in coming days however i must point out that it's not necessarily agreement with the individuals the commerce secretary or the agriculture secretary this critical here it's agreement with the administration headed by president trump these tariffs were announced by president trump unilaterally not by any of the departments at all so eventually the final decision is going to have to once again be taken by president trump but the other aspect of what was said in the news conference in the course of the morning is the destruction that the terrorists would do to both the u.s. economy and the mexican one and in particular the point was made very clear that
10:14 pm
the introduction of such tariffs would impact on mexico's ability to continue to deal with the immigration problem a problem that it says it is addressing suspects assess fully it has done so for the past year however the lack of resources coming from a 5 percent tariff increase would impact immensely on mexico's attempts to deal with that immigration issue mike thank you very much for that my kana live for us in washington d.c. returning now to our main story this news hour and the violent crackdown on protesters in sudan with at least 13 people killed let's get more reaction now joining us on the line from anything is who is the african union spokeswoman thank you so much for being with us on al-jazeera certainly a worrying change of events in sudan what is the african union's reaction and what is your message to the military. ultimately the check is not the

10:18 pm
couple of days it is going to be mexico really that east coast of mexico all the way up towards monterrey now we could be seeing anywhere between $100.00 to possibly even $125.00 millimeters on the coastal areas but the bigger concern is as it makes way towards the north here in the united states we have been seeing a lot of flooding particularly the plains anywhere from texas all the way to the north what's going to be happening is that storm is going to be feeding moisture up here towards the north into those flooded areas so we're going to be watching this again this is going to be another area another situation that's going to add more to many areas that are flooded here we're talking farmlands and rivers so as you can see the flow is coming up from the north we're going to start to see a lot of uplifting and a lot of rain falling as we go from wednesday as well as into thursday so the flooding threat is not over yet across parts of states kevin thank you very much for that still ahead on the news hour we'll be in a remote part of pakistan to explore what's believed to be the world's and largest

a minister accused. and a european judge tasked with imposing nor a new order and a trial testing the nose of a newsroom to nation. witness. highway on neera. you're watching the news on al-jazeera a reminder our main stories this hour at least 13 people including an 8 year old have been killed after a heavily armed troops opened fire on demonstrators seems to don the violence began when troops tried to break up a protest camp outside the military gintas headquarters in the capital khartoum while those forces surrounded 2 hospitals in khartoum and stormed one of them and
10:21 pm
they're said to be not letting people in or out the sudan doctors committee says troops fired live ammunition inside one of the back to us and donald trump has arrived in britain for a 3 day state visit the u.s. president's already sparked controversy with his recommendations on blacks it and who should replace theresa may ask prime minister. now after more than 2 years of inquiries the canadian government has just received a report on missing and murdered indigenous women the reports already been leaked and it calls the disappearance and murder of possibly thousands of women a canadian genocide and speak to shepparton seen live for us in gatineau in quebec so the report is officially out she is it being received. well it's interesting in many ways we have the same sense that pervaded this inquiry since it began yes there's there's
10:22 pm
a sense of relief that finally there's some documentation of the thousands of missing and murdered indigenous women in canada after decades of indifference but there's also a sense of what they will now it's going to happen as the leak suggested the report is very strongly worded the the chief commissioner says these violations amount to nothing less than the deliberate often covert campaign of genocide against indigenous women girls and 2 s l g b t q q people that's q. plus i guess in the rest of the world this is not what canada is supposed to be about it's not what it purports to stand for very strong leader worded but now was and even those who took part in this process they aren't as well of course as those who didn't are very very skeptical. mikey's i wouldn't sister sonia was murdered in 1904 yet she had so little faith in the national inquiry into missing and murdered indigenous women and girls she chose not to testify families want to be. police
10:23 pm
killings that had taken place investigated they wanted their missing brought home so those kinds of things are never able to be more not able to have been answered with this inquiry and it's not that they haven't been calls for a specific investigation into the disproportionate violence directed at indigenous women in canada just 4 percent of the population but 16 percent of reported nationwide homicides justin trudeau followed through on his campaign pledge announcing inquiry and 2015 and the inquiries go was not simply a long awaited official recognition of decades of brutality the work that we're going to be doing research and care systemic causes for at the murderess and just the parent says after 2 and a half years and $68000000.00 it appears that the inquiry will basically state the obvious the problem lies in the economic and social marginalization of indigenous communities institutional racism violence and indifference to the all out quite

overt cultural war waged against the indigenous by the canadian state hilda allison pitts assistant dormice found dead in 2011 her body badly bruised but authorities blamed exposure due to intoxication like many she's critical of how rushed the inquiry seemed as it parish it into communities without building trust and asked for painful testimony in an institutional setting reminiscent of the judicial system that attacks the indigenous nonetheless she found testifying to the inquiry worthwhile for many they never shared their story with anybody prior to the national inquiry coming forward and they felt they could take their story and leave it there and move forward in their healing process hilda is skeptical but feels it's a disservice to all those who like her shadow. truth to dismiss the possibility that the inquiry will lead to meaningful change just getting this message out is an achievement i think it's really important. to recognize many indigenous
10:25 pm
women and girls who live in 1st nations 1st nation communities are living in 3rd world conditions but while few will dispute the reported findings of the inquiry some wonder what good any recommendations will be if the federal and provincial governments are the ones expected to be in charge of implementation. colonial government executing 2 o'clock am governments and that is the reason why we have missing and murdered it's genocide canada is not the only country built on colluding you'll violence genocide as the inquiry has reportedly found but the government does have yet another opportunity to address that legacy on monday and the official ceremony is underway right now prime minister trudeau is due to speak in about half an hour as maggie so i went there was suggesting i think at least in the very short term a real sense of confidence building would be given if he was to say all right we have the recommendations i will allow grassroots indigenous oversight for the implementation of those recommendations at least say that it will be very symbolic
10:26 pm
even if people the up entirely convinced what will come of all of this thank you for that. reporting there live from quebec in canada. mexico's president has all but tories struggling to care about a wave of violence or says he wants to use social programs to lift people out of poverty and prevent young people and on and unemployed adults from turning to organized crime has an aide to sanaa series on open doors for 6 months in office. in the mountains of beer cruz mexico 29 year old make it the minute i meet is is tending to a cornfield she was able to get her own agricultural project off the ground with the help of a government subsidy part of a series of new social programs created by the federal government this specific program is aimed at lifting rural farmers out of poverty but also aims to pay young people to learn a new trade. in the hope it's true that young people want everything fast they want
10:27 pm
easy money they think everything in life is easy in this life nothing is easy you have to work so if the government wants to give us a hand then let's get to work with. the state of it or crews were miguelina lives has a high level of violence there were $682.00 homicides reported in the state in just the 1st few months of the year nationwide violence is on the rise and spreading to otherwise peaceful parts of the country president and this man to elope is what other hopes his social programs for young people will work as a deterrent against crime in mexico city we spoke to 3 teenagers who are enrolled in a government scholarship program they've experienced the violence firsthand and believe the newly formed social programs will have a positive impact on deterring future criminals and me when they get that big and believe me robbers are common where i live murders are common gunshots at night are common and if the government can reduce the number of people becoming involved in crime slowly everything else will fix itself in the. financial assistance to young
10:28 pm
people as a strategy for crime prevention is certainly a novel idea for the country but mexico is already on track to surpass last year's record setting homicide rate and not everyone seems convinced the social programs are working on is also longer you know when we're talking about public funds in a country that cities that have series and security issues where records of violence continue to be broken it's not about how much money you give a young person. in the case of impoverished farmers and very crews there does appear to be a high expectation from the president's initiative even if the results aren't immediately visible this is one of the 1st fields that was planted by farmers with assistance from the government it'll still be several months before the corn can be harvested perhaps the same could be said about seeing the benefits of a program that goes beyond a government handout but gives rural farmers it renewed incentive and desire to
