showers i reports of turkey recently there was a still with us but actually pushing their way further northwards now so for some of us in azerbaijan and through into armenia we've also seen those showers maybe pushing up towards the south western parts of russia more showers are expected here as we head through friday and into saturday some of which will be very heavy with the old rumble of thunder we're also expecting more showers just around the south of the caspian sea here they're almost should stay dry with a top temperature of 35 degrees it is hot to forcing kuwait city now are temperature right there way up at 46 and it's hard to doha too with the temperature matching that thing the winds won't be a strong there as we head through friday and into saturday so at least that's a relief not too far away for us is all tropical so i tell you not so ready injected a lot of moisture in the air so for some of us in iron man there will be a fair amount of cloud at times and there is the chance of seeing one or 2 showers a from that cloud for the towards the south of most of the showers here in the eastern parts of our map through parts of mozambique and also through the eastern

parts of madagascar as well away from there it's largely fine and dry there's a good deal of sunshine around not necessarily all the time getting to around 16 at the maximum temperature but been told we should be a bit higher at 22. when sponsored by the time ways. this is a dialogue reading about it for us and staying at it on international media and on t.v. why should we stop this conversation with skepticism because there's a lot of it on my everyone has a voice we are being taken advantage of just because we are small community without a leader to work just to to help join the global conversation on out is iraq all they want to do is start to feel the same kind of debate that we have here in st.

welcome back a quick reminder the top stories here on al-jazeera the u.s. military has released a video shows members of the iranian revolutionary guard removing an unexploded mine from one of the tank that's hit by explosions in the gulf of oman you have said to state has accused iran of being behind the attacks tehran has dismissed the allegations. yemen's who the rebels say they have carried out another attack on board in southwestern saudi arabia is the 2nd this week saudi arabia says it's added senses intercepted 5 drones targeting the airport in the town of promise machine. downs ruling military council or the dispersal of a city in protest outside headquarters new pictures of the violence in khartoum on june the 3rd have just been released after an internet blackout. that the situation

in the gulf in the trade war between the u.s. and china are likely to dominate day 2 of the shanghai cooperation organization meeting where leaders are gathering in the central asian nation of kurdistan summit is meant to discuss regional security and robin forest to walk and joins us live now from robin so what can we expect from the bilateral specifically u.s. china trade will iran and india pakistan perhaps. right also having some problems there with robin forrester walk in bishkek robin can you hear us at all. robin can you hear a little and i can hear you good fantastic i'm just asking what can we expect them from the i can hear you good. i think that by laterals are probably the most important thing that's going to be happening today a lot of me have putin will meet with president he being late and also i think

very important is going to be that meeting between between putin and president rouhani of iran because of course of those tensions now ratcheting up in the middle east with the u.s. accusing the iranians of of being behind the attacks on those 2 oil tankers and the way it's looked at here is that iran i think has an opportunity to find friends and supports in an east would tilt looking for new regional alliances given the problems that it's been having with the u.s. over the iran sanctions and the deal that's now been broken by the united states i think that many people see iran now looking for opportunities to forge alliances in the shanghai cooperation organization which it's wanted to be a member of for some time. he met last night i should add with mode with prime minister narendra modi of india they talked about the problems of course

with the trade tariffs being placed on china i think india also sees concern that that's something that could be trouble for them they want to confirm their own commitment to. being united against what they describe as trade protectionism coming from the united states yeah robin just talk us through the main meetings and what they'll be focusing on. well they'll be a couple today they'll be the main ones with the member states and then those observer members which is afghanistan. iran and mongolia they'll also be attending those and i think this shanghai cooperation organization was established originally between russia china and the central asian rip republics india and pakistan have come on board quite recently it's about cooperation on counterterrorism and regional security it's also about an

opportunity to forge closer economic ties and deals we might hear about some of those late it's a what's crucial about the c.e.o. is that they all agree not to criticize each other on the internal affairs of the of their own governments and so with the biggest human rights issue right now for central asia is what's happening in synch yang with the chinese accused of internally of arrest of detaining and holding that's more than a 1000000 of it's was the minorities those include not just weakest but central asian sethna kazakhs and kick is a new specs that will not be discussed there will be no pushback from any of these countries criticizing china because that's what the was about it's about. regional alliances in you know opposition that say to the western powers are right to run for a walk in the in bishkek robin thank you. no public gatherings have been banned in a district of uganda where 2 people have died of the bone

briggs that deal reports. jeremy hunt 43. sajid javid 23. or it's johnson $114.00. so it's already seems to be boris johnson's race to lose he received nearly 3 times as many votes as his nearest rival in this 1st round and momentum is now very much with. his team is studiously avoided letting johnson do any of this sort of thing for the obvious reason that it hardly looks like the prime minister in waiting. but for all of his ducking of difficult questions about his private life and personality it remains a fact that polling has him as popular with his party but unpopular with very many voters they are unlikely m.p.'s seem to want to know how exactly he will renegotiate a deal with the european union when there is effectively no time left to do it i

think the onus is on the candidates to show that she breaks it because it's all very well saying no deal may not get through parliament. so you really go. when a moment get through the year so at the moment the kind of not being adequately precise to convince even their own colleagues let alone the membership of the public at large thompson's appeal is partly based on the terror many conservative m.p.'s have that nigel farage is the bracks of policy is so undermining them that if it isn't delivered as soon as possible then the tory party faces destruction. but does johnson do his rivals jeremy hunt the current foreign secretary or michael gove the eloquence environment secretary actually know how to deliver bracks it's any better than to resume a did they've been wrong for 3 years about what the. why would they be right all of

a sudden now so they don't stand up to scrutiny i think it's not necessarily intended to stand up to scrutiny i think it's maybe intended to influence the candidates in the leadership debate moving general. direction and competing with each other to be more. yes that consideration seems less important to rank and file conservatives than their belief that only johnson can stop their party from being wiped out boris johnson may not be a details man but he's certainly not short of rhetorical flourish courage seems to be his by word of course the u.k. can do this one way or the other well if he really thinks he is the man to take the u.k. out of the european union without any sort of trade deal he may find himself hostage to his own fortune. apart from anything else the growing likelihood of johnson as prime minister who put enormous pressure on the labor party leader jeremy corbyn to

do something to stop the u.k. being walked out of the european union without any trade deal and time is not on his side either lawrence leigh al-jazeera london. aid groups are warning of a growing humanitarian crisis in bosnia herzegovina as it struggles to cope with an influx of refugees the bosnian red cross says thousands of migrants are sleeping rough in several northern cities they're stranded after being turned back of the croatian border many migrants the middle east and north africa have been trying to reach western europe through bosnia after other european countries closed their borders. so a new exhibition has opened in london helping refugee artists tell their stories sink without trace features work made the perilous journey to europe reports a pair of jeans a child shoe a life jacket fragments of lives lost at sea this is sinking without trace an exhibition bringing together artists response to the migrant struggle some of these

stream stager done so much better. we understand the differences. and the similarities of cultures across the world so no matter how you take it al-jazeera will bring you the news and current affairs that matter to you al-jazeera. iof of the ok imo we could be here in the stream today we explore the impact of anti abortion policies around the world including 100 us this total ban on the procedure and a prohibition rights campaign and northern ireland a 1st look at the trump of ministrations enforcement of a global gag of war otherwise known as the mexico city policy and a report by a women's health organization that says it is potentially a leaf threat have a look at this video explaining the policy and tweet us your thoughts. fact the

u.s. hasn't funded abortions 973 because of a law called the homes of men the global god goes much further it prevents the federal government from funding organizations that provide access to all information about abortions it doesn't matter if the money were actually spent on abortion services republican presidents since ronald reagan have imposed that of the gun but president trumps is the most extreme instead of only targeting family planning the ban applies to any organization regardless of what services they provide in other words if a facility that provides cervical cancer screening even mentions it may be forced to scale back or shut down for lack of us on then. a recent report by the international women's health coalition says that the trump administration's reinstatement of the mexico city policy is ultimately killing women joining the stream via skype in new york to help us on pack report out so as president of the

international women's health coalition was the biggest headline from this report is what would you say really should be catching our attention around the world. the report documents the impact of the global gag rule in kenya south africa nigeria and nepal 4 countries that received they receive a lot of global health assistance from the united states governments and what we see are health services being reduced women losing access to sexual and reproductive health information and services including contraception. treatment for hiv. tuberculosis and other services so it's not only about limiting access to abortion to safe abortion it's actually damaging the provision of health services for women and as a result women are already dying as

a result of the global gag rule dramatic findings there francoise but i want to show you this tweet we got jamie she says i would encourage the official name of the policy protecting life and global health assistance calling this the global gag rule busy is a talking point of international planned parenthood and marie stopes and is not unbiased reporting she's talking to us at the strain there and she goes on to say other countries don't want the u.s. forces abortion policy is on them talk to us about that view that giving money from the united states to fund organizations that deal with women's health and women's health care and some of that might be abortion is in her view forcing us abortion policy on them it's rather the opposite i think what we're what the u.s. is doing with the global gag rule is contradicting the national policy of these governments for example south africa which liberalise its abortion on in the 1990 s.

up to debray sion of the country in fact has one of the most liberal abortion laws worldwide and the global gag rule is preventing health providers in that country. from actually mentioning abortion providing abortion referring for services abortion services and even engaging in national debates on abortion policy and abortion law and so that is contradicting the policies of south africa the same is true in nepal which liberalise its abortion law in 2002 and to a certain extent also in kenya where the constitution to 2010 constitution provides for a right to abortion when the help of the woman is in danger has a policy on a political conversation but also a story about. real women. tell us one story covered by the reporter you want to share of our international audience so for example as

a result of the global gag rule organizations have had to make the very difficult choice to either accept us funding and stop providing abortion care and information in referrals or. to accept us funding and then turn women away when they show up at the clinic with an unwanted pregnancy and that has meant that organizations have been put in a very difficult position of turning away clients so in kenya for example a group that is working very closely with young sex workers on hiv prevention explicit to sign on to the global gag rule because they didn't want to lose their hiv funding but as a result have turned away young sex workers with unwanted pregnancies and they already documented a number of cases of deaths from unsafe abortion including a young woman who had tried to insert knitting needles in her cervix to try to terminate her pregnancy so it's already killing women and we can we can document.

stories like difficulty here with thank you for sharing that that's why we got this video coming from carmen but also she's the interim executive director i'm global doctors for choice and she talks about the rest. well the gag rule is confortable because it drives women to unsafe services or abortion because they don't have access to safe services were abortion. why we think women. and women's health should be jack good because they're both ready correct i think so carmen for that comment will pause our discussion of the global gag war busy there and move to a campaign by pro-abortion rights activists in northern ireland where both women and medical professionals can be prosecuted under anti-abortion legislation crafted in 861 here's what doctor and i think operate out had to say.

article motioned. for the these last 3 men. and sentences the old clinicians who might be capable and willing to help these men . just it doesn't make any sense for the rest of the united kingdom to have one set of rules and for the women of northern ireland to suffer on the people who was the leader of that island and the leaders of the united kingdom have to look at this from a whole new kind of perspective and from a perspective of human strength choice and you have. last year's referendum in the neighboring republic of ireland which legalized abortion has given pro-abortion rights campaigners in northern ireland hope that change is possible so how are activists pushing to bring the region in line with the rest of the u.k. and with us now from belfast northern ireland kelly o'dowd is the co-chairwoman alliance for choice an organisation advocating for the bodily autonomy of women

transgender men and non-binary people and elizabeth nelson is a writer and activist for the belfast minister network welcome to both of you want to start with this you got from a member of our community joe on twitter says i think the issue is finally being recognised in the rest of the u.k. because of things like ireland's referendum and sadly because of the backward steps in some us states i'd predict most people would support the law being changed from westminster while there is no northern ireland executive so help break this down for us a lizabeth the issue being recognised what does he mean by that. well what he means is that true a long time abortion in northern ireland has been and i suppose still continues to be a very controversial issue but we've seen a massive shift in public opinion over the last decade i would say. to a point where most people in northern ireland according to several opinion polls that have been conducted would support abortion and northern ireland

a very some people would only supported in cases of rape and fetal abnormalities where some people would support our campaign for decriminalization for abortion but regardless it's absolutely true to say that public opinion has shifted and it now seems that people are that rather that the politicians are out of step with the public and are the one who want to see the human rights for women actually delivered kerry why is no finance to operating a law that's over 150 years old. and i get it yes it's quite bizarre that we are but and 1967 and the rest of the u.k. and had an abortion act and i'm not at was never extended to northern ireland so we find ourselves in a very precarious situation that we are perceived as you can see the decisions we've had a c.m. you can't taxes but we're only able to access the stamp reproductive health care of the rest of his business and we also and today the department of health actually released figures of women who travel from northern ireland so today we find out

that 1053 women traveled in 2018 from their home in northern ireland to england and we lost access to legal abortions there and those figures have gone up but i think nearly 19890 since 2017 so that's a situation that we find ourselves and we are exploiting women and to travel to access and reproductive health care which they should be able to access and northern ireland and so that's why we're asked people online are upset about that at least some of them helena says i feel that politicians in the u.k. are handling this issue atrociously parties against the abortion laws in northern ireland are not making this enough of a priority this is a human rights violation on our doorstep and yet we hear so little about it can you understand that view but to see taking their elizabeth out yet there's absolutely a lot of anger and kelly out of this kelly i hear you said as well so it's elizabeth you go to prison cal you come in after. there's a lot of anger i think particularly because of the way that politics are set up at

the minute in westminster after the general election in 2017 the democratic unionist party which is the northern ireland party has actually been involved in propping up the conservative government and that has without a doubt led to their priorities for northern ireland being implemented or rather things that they don't want to see happen in northern ireland being blocked so they would be very much an anti-abortion party very conservative and the equal marriage all sorts of things like that because they are so interested to the survival of the conservative government it means were. facing an even harder uphill battle because they have been able to block the government from interceding and delivering human rights as is their responsibility human rights are not a double it is absolutely the responsibility of the westminster government whether human rights of which abortion is one and they are the ones who are advocating their responsibility just to stay in power cannot just to add to. that we have we have the specter that is breakfast so we have had and to be upset and a lot of the u.k.

is moving towards decriminalization so $967.00 abortion act is not decriminalization but there is a need westminster to say the 67 act is no longer fit for purpose and decriminalization is where we should be out and i think people are now more cognizant that northern ireland should not be left behind but because of bragg's that because of the tory chaos and you know leadership you know leadership competitions going on at the minute northern ireland and again our women are fundamentally left behind and again we've had no storm and assembly for 2 years but as already said this is a human rights a shoot and seato has stepped up the violation of our human rights and should be dealt with in westminster again elizabeth and kelly just like in an hour earlier conversation is almost impossible to separate abortion policy from politics people are noticing and i'm going to shave his head i'm reading from the guardian newspaper abortion nor in northern ireland kasha than in alabama alabama the state of alabama now has the strictest abortion policy in the united states can you see

how that compares to what you're dealing with in northern ireland kelly. i mean absolutely i once or twice actually wrote an open letter to alabama to say we share your opinion we share your solidarity and to come up with a few ideas in terms of what you need today to fight back i mean to say listen stigma that has surrounded abortion in northern ireland for the past 50 or 60 years remember if we've asked for just one place in women this year that's around an average of 50000 women who have left northern ireland to access of course and you know for a civil legal abortions and the u.k. so we wrote an open letter to alabama and it was entrenched and the people were able to comment on alabama people probably from these areas we didn't realize but at the last in northern ireland are more strict and they actually are and. there's more to talk about we will do that in just a moment but i also want to bring in another story from honduras where the group human rights watch has documented the stories of women and girls who have

experience difficulties when trying to terminate a pregnancy has one of those stories. then you must be able to. get in on but as for. this to if you're the school make him head on the same look i don't remember it or . not the. daughters the other do not want nor do you. do you. think about that you seem to do this and took it up into alaska but as sometime into medical leave that i'm 3 months and i'm going to put a lot of them but that's your mother. and i want to approach really working with. under noise posies prison sentences of up to 6 years on women girls and medical

professionals who enjoy the support that's according to human rights watch the government also bans of urgency contraception and since nearly one in 4 women in honduras of victims of physical or sexual abuse by upon the media forced to terminate pregnancies in secret and i'm discussing joins us now from human rights watch she is the acting co director of the women's rights division. do you want to make that connection between what is happening and one joyce regarding abortion and abortion policy and human rights absolutely what we know is when you ban abortion you don't actually in divorce and you drive it underground when you drive it underground women and girls are criminalized for trying to seek basic health care and they take greater and greater risks to try to actually terminate the pregnancy and doctors can't actually perform their duty their duty of care for fear of criminalizing themselves as well so we've got this tweet from computer that's their

handle they say all abortion ban does for women in 100 us put them in danger danger from the potential side effects of seeking unsafe abortions danger from pregnancy itself and danger of violence against themselves and their families and they go on to say all of this can be summed up as an abortion ban keeps women in tuned in a society which does not recognize them as people it covers up serious systemic problems by focusing on a symptom and forcing the victims to bear the burden of the problem can you talk to us about some of the difficulties that women are facing because of this law you have specific examples so we have 11 woman in particular that we highlighted and our report her name we called her letter m. and that's not her actual name she didn't even know she was pregnant and she was experiencing a lot of pain and bleeding and she went into the hospital and where when she was in the hospital they actually suspected that she had tried to induce an abortion and she. he was suffering from a miscarriage she received the care she needed but she left the hospital in

handcuffs she was referred to the police system and she's currently awaiting trial under house arrest that's one example but what we know is that women are alone and afraid and often trying to induce abortion themselves using pills and are then afraid to seek care precisely because of what happened to lead and others they are coming lives when they do what i call when an activist within honduras able to do to change policy and the law in honduras right now it's a really difficult political environment and us to talk about abortion we talked to one woman who had tried to really bring the evangelical and catholic church and other leaders within the religious movements together to talk about and think about decriminalization of abortion and she's received death threats just for trying to speak out we also see women stepping up to try to provide access to information

there's actually a hotline that is staffed by volunteers to give women information on how they can pardon me how they can safely terminate abortions we got this tweet from liz in spanish twitter is already translated for us in 100 us abortion is still taboo whether it is legal legalized or done in secret because it is not considered a public health issue or women's rights rather it's seen from the religious aspect this is why there is no sex education of course i'll add to that is also not. abstinence is preached because there aren't contraceptives that are allowed so how does this law compared to other latin american countries so the law there are other latin american countries where there stream bans against abortion as well i'll solve it or as a great example of the dominican republic but what we see different in honduras is just the extreme stigma and taboo. about talking talking about these issues so if

you look at argentina that also has it's not as extreme it has abortion bans women are able to march in the streets and really talk about why abortion needs to be decriminalized and have conversations with politicians and there be real debate about the issue honduras just isn't there yet it is such a stigmatized issue and so that means that women are really suffering in silence and in secret i mean i want to bring back a guest because we talking about abortion policy and different parts of the wall so france was and also and also elizabeth. in northern ireland was talking about the mexico policy of the global gag rule which impacts much of the developing world ladies when you back together because i'm wondering what you'll saying on this show about different possible is it resonating with each of them on to you stock yes absolutely this is a there's 2 global trends that we're seen one is that there are women that are braver and braver in speaking out and really advocating for change they're doctors

that are stepping forward and saying this is a public health issue they're human rights activist i mean for him this is a human rights issue and there are some governments that are taking the steps to address it like ireland like chile and then there's a 2nd trend one that is against women's choices against women's rights and i guess women's health and you see that the mexico city policy of the global gag rule is a great example of so françoise is not in cali is nothing false once you go 1st. yes absolutely and what we're seeing is. movement women's rights basically because i think we shouldn't confuse. being about abortion what we see is that there really are women. and they're usually part of a much broader. access to contraceptives. and generally how do you view of women being. 1st and foremost. it's

important to understand that context and not this issue when i played it you know what i meant. i want to play a video comment from barbara and it to me from decolonized contraception and abortion rights and she's talking about ireland but i think that this can be extrapolated to other places to have a listen to what she said abortion is about reproductive health care joe sentences for medical staff who help individuals procure abortion seeks to destroy and erode the patient and doctor relationship further legitimise in the idea that individuals can make that choice for themselves and what is a safe medical procedure so elizabeth that means you jumping in for you of course she's talking about northern ireland here but this is something we're also seeing or potentially could see in the u.s. because all of these bills and these laws make it difficult for doctors when to step outside of those boundaries. absolutely and it's rather cynical and ironic in

a way that so much of the of the rhetoric that anti-abortion activists employs around morality when really what they're doing is immoral when they're divorcing doctors from their parents from their patients from the duty of care that they have when they're forcing doctors to not give women the care that they need and putting them in situations where their lives and their health is at risk and that in itself is immoral but i also want to just comment quickly on what francois said about the the fact that abortion is just one small part of what's being happened of what is happening to women and it absolutely is is about control it's about taking freedom away because that's what abortion is for women who need its freedom its freedom to continue living their lives it's reading to access education to go to work to do what with their lives what they choose to do and that's why we start to talk about something that is reproductive justice instead of human rights which is a very powerful tool talking about abortion but when we put it into a reproductive justice framework we're able to understand that it's not just about abortion it's about access to contraception it's about the right to parent

a child that you already have in a safe and healthy community it's a holistic look at women's lives that at the lives of anyone who can become pregnant and it's there's no accident that this is happening on a global scale it's very much deliberate ok i don't need to tell you because you're sitting there in nova not end with with the the impact of the catholic church the impact of societal to norms it's a very tricky thing this is a very sensitive topic to even bring up and to campaign about when people talk to you about what about children's lives what about babies' lives how do you discuss that with them because you have to come together in order for policy to be made that's good policy for every woman. absolutely i mean northern ireland is a very morally conservative society so human rights arguments bodily autonomy arguments that are just arguments don't necessarily said very well with the general public so what we find is that talking about women's lived experiences talking

about where they need to access of course and why they are find themselves with crisis pregnancy and and why they need to be able to access this reproductive health care so when we put the woman at the center of the debates and discussions everybody did not agree with abortion but it's not about everybody agree and it's about it may not be a choice for me but i absolutely not stand in the way of anyone who needs to access an abortion and also we would not criminalize or i mean what we're seeing is women's bodies again are political grounds and the price of a quality is constant vigilance and this is what we're seeing as well just because we have abortion rights in some countries just not necessarily mean that we hold on to them so the price of any quality is constant vigilance. elizabeth nelson amanda classing francois should are really making joining those dots between politics and abortion policy in many places around the world miikka well in france 2 comments from you tube live here lydia says abortion bans are not about controlling women how self-centered you have to be to think that and injuries on the other side says

central command released not just the video but also some stills and a timeline of events from the u.s. perspective in the hours after the attacks this video they say was taken some 10 hours after the initial distress calls came in from those 2 tankers and some 5 hours after a u.s. naval ship had picked up the $21.00 the sailors who fled that japanese tanker at that time the u.s. says that the military observed and recorded an iranian revolutionary guard ship approaching the whole of the tanker and removing this mine from the tanker to be clear it does not show what happened before the attacks occurred in iran has categorically denied the u.s. allegations that they are behind these attacks the u.s. for its part calls this a threat to international peace and security they say they do not want in the

statement from central command they say they do not want to start a new conflict in the middle east however they will defend their interests and that includes the the right to international commerce and international navigation and there is a 2nd u.s. naval destroyer on route to the region when any of the incident was discussed at a meeting of the u.n. security council like how has the details from new york. proceedings at the u.n. security council were dominated by the news of explosions on board 2 tankers in the gulf with them on the station wish to discuss cooperation between the league of arab states and the u.n. but most speakers reacted to events in the gulf including the u.n. secretary general facts must be established and the responsibilities. and they for that is something the world cannot afford is a major confrontation in the gulf region. a thinly veiled accusation of

responsibility was made by the arab league secretary general. of a moderate some parties in the region are trying to instigate fires in our region and we have to be aware about the russian ambassador insistent that this is a conscious strategy to undermine diplomatic moves aimed at reducing tension in the gulf and you could you know what the it's a live the studio loosely would it when there is a need to come together to achieve one of the most important tools before us today you know launching regional dialogue into the stablish in a security architecture in the persian gulf we're currently according to our view the tensions are artificially fueled and inflamed around the ram. if you rejected at the u.s. state department where iran was directly accused of responsibility for the attacks this is the estimate is based on intelligence the weapons used the level of expertise needed to execute the operation recent similar raining attacks on shipping and the fact that no proxy group operating in the area has the resources

and proficiency to act with such a high degree of sophistication working the acting u.s. ambassador to the united nations was osce by the secretary of state to call for an meeting of the security council and law enforcement. it's not just the latest attacks that were in discussion behind closed doors the overarching question is whether all parties to the longstanding dispute with iran are sincere in their publicly stated preference for a peaceful diplomatic resolution. iran rejects the u.s. ecu station that attacks on shipping lanes are part of its widest strategy in a regional power struggle if so then the question remains who is responsible. sierra united nations yemen's who the rebels say they have carried out a 2nd attack on an airport in southwestern saudi arabia in as many days who the say they'd use drones to target the port saudi arabia says its air defenses intercepted 5 drones targeting the airport near the town of hummus macheda it's about 100

kilometers from the yemeni border where the latest drone strike comes just days after a missile hit the same airport injuring 26 civilians several saudi airports have been targeted in the past year including the king holiday international airport in the capital riyadh when lawrence a professor at the george washington university's elliott school of international affairs he says as peace talks fail the fighting increases. the yemen war and the yemen saudi conflict have their own dynamics yemen had grabbed some territory in saudi arabia of course these drone attacks are escalating and increasingly targeting civilians and successfully so and increasingly we're seeing that with the failure of the un led negotiation process that both sides are are feeling less constrained let's say by international pressures and escalating towards you know whatever this is going to lead towards and i don't

think that they ran eons are controlling entirely what the who these are doing what they're targeting i think of course there are aiding in terms of technology and other aspects but seeing what's going on in the straits of hormuz and what's going on with the drone attacks seem to as the same thing as it can be a bit misleading and a bit confusing saddam's ruling military council admits that the dispersal of a city in protest outside the headquarters new video of the violence and concentrate on june the 3rd has just been released an internet blackout is in place the operation to clear the protest has resulted in dozens of deaths and hundreds were wounded saddam's military has again blamed protest groups for the breakdown in talks and a transition to civilian rule. there's a link up. what is delaying the negotiations is the false understanding for civilian led government that this is something that even you in the media have been wrong in identifying we are not classified as civilians because we were military

close they're all screaming civilian civilian in my view civilian is the thirty's is the ruling is the task which we agreed on after we agreed that government ministers and the legislative council would be civilian led they are still screaming civilian civilian they said the military will only work in the sovereign council the declaration for freedom and change said they agreed to 95 percent and there was a disagreement over 5 percent or 5 percent all those blessed souls were lost that 5 percent was how many civilians and how many military would be in the sovereign council and who would lead we believe the majority should be military and the leadership should be military and they believed otherwise we insist that the military is the sole guarantor for peace and stability in the transitional phase so let's take a look at where things stand in so there has been a halt in violence after protest groups called off their civil disobedience campaign which led to more clashes earlier this week the return to relative calm is largely because of mediation efforts by ethiopia's prime minister and days after

visit a top u.s. diplomat for africa met the head of the transitional military council on thursday he has called on the military to withdraw from khartoum and stop attacking civilians and also for an independent investigation into the crackdown on protesters justice is a former u.s. state department official he says diplomacy becomes more difficult as more foreign players get involved. for penn the the general to actually blame the protesters is just an extraordinary thing and it makes it even harder for the leaders of the opposition to agree to terms and to come back to the table if they're being blamed directly after they suffered this massacre so we need not just investigations we need heavy heavy pressure from the u.n. security council from the secretary general a visit would be quite necessary and timely we need heavy heavy pressure put on the t.m.c. now because behind the scenes they've just gotten

a giant payoff from their friends around the region over in the gulf and that is really what broke this and that makes it all the more difficult for these envoys to have any success at all including. with this u.s. state department diplomat there who knows president trump made tomorrow. declare them his friends as they didn't so that that could already have happened in fact and we don't even know it makes it much more difficult to do diplomacy given what's happened right there in khartoum and what's happening in capitals around the world public gatherings have been banned in the district of uganda where 2 people have died from the bone a virus both victims recently across the border in the democratic republic of congo where the latest outbreak there has killed infected thousands well health organization is holding an emergency meeting on friday to discuss developments. where a hospital in which is where the 5 year old boy in his grandmother died both had
