1:08 pm
members of the paramilitary group known as the rapid support forces were amongst them they're accused of spearheading the crackdown that killed more than $100.00 people earlier in the month and the u.s. is sending its top diplomat for africa to meet leaders of the joint and the opposition. is expected to ask the 2 sides to return to negotiations the should give them explains. yes or armand says when he was released from detention on monday he didn't realize that he and 2 of his fellow opposition leaders were being forced into exile he says they were put onto a military helicopter and flown to juba the capital of south sudan against their will. when you write quickly and then when we cross report
1:09 pm
a bit of south sudan report that they're going to do so and we say the military council is not serious about saving the revolution and implementing its goals we are calling upon all international organizations to support us in resisting the deportations. monday was the 2nd day of a general strike in sudan intended to paralyze the country and force the transitional military council's hand you know i mean martyrs have died a lot of things have happened with the civil uprising and a lot of people have been affected for those who say the civil disobedience isn't successful and i saw it with my own eyes these are lies. talks between the opposition and the military ground to a halt after a crackdown on a sit in a week ago the central committee of sudan doctors says almost 120 people died health ministry says the death toll is half that an investigation is under way if.
1:10 pm
you were a clan was dispersed the area clean it up without getting closer to the main sit in area but mistakes were made when the plan was carried out not to let the situation let's just take into consideration that our forces never go deep into the city area . ethiopian prime minister that met with opposition members on friday he left a delegation behind in the hopes they can help negotiate an end to the crisis but the gulf between the protesters and the military remains why with no sign power will be handed to the people of sudan natasha going to aim. at a thomas is a researcher at the school of oriental and african studies in london joins me now via skype from glasgow good to have you with us mr thomas on al-jazeera can we just start with the fun that. is coming into the country i mean what can he do that the ethiopian prime minister couldn't i mean no one called to certainly from the
1:11 pm
military side wants to all seems to want to listen to these dignitaries and diplomats. well i think the crackdown which took place last week took place. immediately after a trip by different leader to different neighboring country over which america has quite an important influence so i think that the arrival of the u.s. secretary of state may be a bit different from from the arrival of other dignitaries and i think the government will be watching the sudanese government will be watching very very carefully to any sign that america might be putting pressure on the on the saudi and. aligned to moderate the situation moderate the by a lot happening in khartoum at the moment and of course with today 3 now of a civil disobedience observation by civil society and opposition groups what do you
1:12 pm
make of the way the this is being handled by civil society and the opposition groups considering that much of the way they communicate with each other through the internet through social media is actually being cut. well that's a big challenge for the civil society activists to political act and another challenge is of course the intense violence of the arts few days is likely to lead to differences of approach which might ultimately lead to a divergence between different elements of that ship so far the opposition has been quite successful in holding together quite disparate groups peripheral rebel old political leaders cartoon professionals and of course the the young people rich and poor ready hungry and well fed who have been swarming over the capital central central street demanding justice and. freedom how does that
1:13 pm
equation change then when 3 senior leaders 3 senior opposition leaders are deported out of the country and find out that they're in south juba that sort of changes the ground reality certainly for those that have heard that these individuals have been removed from sudan yes well of course you're bearing to the sudan people's liberation movement nor the like the sort of man who. just arrived. i think that maybe part that may also be related to regional dynamics south sudan as being relatively flat for 2 of the dyed in the current situation and the s.p.l. i'm nor leaders who just wanted to close links but there may be by the element about there but what do you make of the dynamics at the moment between the
1:14 pm
transitional military council and the r.s.s. the security force that is accused of attacking the civil society on june the 3rd on that eventful sunday. in the way that they are trying to deal with not just the public at large but also the growing condemnation that khartoum is receiving internationally. well that's the $1000000.00 question with the i.r.s. that on the direction of the the you know working and working as a group. or did they are is they are it's trying to trying to change the situation by going it alone a bit of the talking and killing maybe it seems over 100 protesters making all sorts of other outrageous. cartoons. and according to reports which are very difficult to verify. a moment committing other outrages and for.
1:15 pm
the big question for the future don the case that the transitional military council is act in a unified way. means that they may be trying to rearrange the terms of any future negotiation with the opposition make sure that the opposition realizes that they would they are still ready to resort to violence but they still want and they go to them if however the transitional midrashic out. but there are elements which want a thorough should a response to the protesters and others are more inclined to negotiation about the very dangerous situation that saddam to the different power in the region different views on not probably go towers are more indifferent to the possibility of a major conflict in the dock and perhaps the secretary the deputy secretary of state that's visiting at the moment might be able to convince. these government of
1:16 pm
the terrible come. complete breakdown within the traditional military in the country at large and we should see what happens and what the outcome of the meeting is for the moment at the thomas glasgow thanks so much for joining us thank you. well staying in the continent $1000.00 people are being killed in the attack in the kenya it happened in the northern town of out of india the identity of the attackers is still unknown armed groups have killed thousands in recent months forcing 150000 people to flee their homes. well still ahead here on the al-jazeera news on the implications of an eye bailout we'll be live in pakistan where the government is set to unveil its budget. and a look at yemen 6 months after the stockholm ceasefire agreement why a new report says little has changed. in the press for

1:25 pm
a renewal of its fortunes but the problem here is as with so many other places in italy's poorest south is that there is a dying population and there are few incentives to attract people to come here you can project was routinely criticized by italy's league party leader and deputy prime minister met they are still beenie immigration policies have divided the country those who remain in riyadh share are fearing the worst. wish to enter only what can are created here should not be destroyed he created an economic system which works here and can work throughout the country the small towns here suffer from the population there are no young people here as they've all left. the promises of the new mayor will be a challenge in this remote area if yet she is to come back from the brink it faces many here believe it will require a complete overhaul if it is to avoid the fate of dying out altogether so new

1:31 pm
kilometers away from the yemeni border. a new report by the norwegian refugee council has found that more than 2250000 yemeni nominees have been displaced since the stockholm ceasefire agreement was signed 6 months ago now the report says the violence between who the rebels and the saudi coalition the banks the government continues to escalate more than 26000 of those displaced came from the port city of data are a major battleground an entry point for aid delivery and 1750 civilian casualties are reported across the amman since the agreement was signed in december sultana beggar is an advocacy manager at the norwegian refugee council joins me via skype from sanaa in yemen good to have you with us on the program those statistics make for grim reading and one wonders whether the agreement that was supposed to help see aid arriving into the country unhindered has actually been successful or not
1:32 pm
what's your impression. well firstly i'd like to start with something positive and i'd like to say that the stock hermit remained offered the rights of glimmer of hope to millions of yemenis her on the verge of starvation it was really the 1st real breakthrough to peace efforts. stalled a potentially devastating attack on the city and how they the port which is the lifeline the $20000000.00 yemenis because a lot of the countries feel medicines comes through that ports and the if we went was also compelled by the starts humanitarian conditions in the country and really the aim was to ease the humanitarian situation. so there have been some benefits to having this agreement but it's calling quote short of expectations. you've mentioned some of the statistics in our new report but behind the statistics are individual stories of suffering so much one of the stories that we heard with magic
1:33 pm
from her day he lost 4 of his daughters and then that tack. on his house now magid described his daughters to us as his like his rosales and he doesn't understand why they were taken away from him or what they did to deserve that fate so really what we're saying is we really condemn the ongoing violence that's going on in yemen and its finances and calling it a day that in. many parts of the country of the conflict it's aging it did in the human tragedy is that for all to see as it has been for years now but again the focus has to be for the international community about how to actually stop the fighting trying to find a peace deal of there's any possibility of that but more importantly trying to get aid into the country so in terms of the stockholm agreement the struck him agreement that was focused on the bigger data port and trying to get aid into the country how easy or difficult has that been of getting the aid into her data and then getting it distributed out. yeah i mean i think the 1st thing to say it's the
1:34 pm
day to cease fire has only had limited impact and the enabling safe and sustained access to people who are in conflict affected areas in the governor and of head they serve for example they don't wait in refugee council who i worked for we used to work in a number of areas and what they did governor but we had to stop working there firstly because of the ongoing fighting but there were also restrictions and red tape on the movement of aid workers and supplies going into those areas so these difficulties haven't really been improved in any kind of large scale how they the port which is as i mentioned is that like line for 20000000 yemenis it has limited capacity because it was attacked and damaged previously in the conflict there are still restrictions and terms of the goods that come in and out of the wall which means that sometimes there's a shortage of fuel sometimes there's
1:35 pm
a shortage of food and that means that the prices go up across the country as well so we what what what the stock come back doesn't able it's basically sharing of that revenue supports that you went to support the management of the port and to make sure that you know the country civil servants and health workers get paid and we'd really like to see that implemented or see what does happen the moment slowed down the big advance joining us from some thank you notes for flooding in southwestern libya has killed at least 2 people and 4 stones in the homes the government has declared the terminal disaster area homes and farms have been destroyed and road stomach or even closed. still on the african continent in nigeria gunmen have raided villages in northwestern the sokoto state killing at least 43 people police say they've arrested a number of suspects several communities that have taken the bombs to defend themselves against capital 1st looting and kidnapping and with their sons more from
