coming up just days after donald trump crossed into north korea young attic use the u.s. being hell bent on hostility. saddam's military genter an opposition are back on the negotiating table under african union and he appealed to me. and will be joining this grandmother in what she calls a toxic tour of hell as she pushes the u.s. energy producers to clean up their industry. the u.n. security council has failed to agree on a course of action in libya following emergency talks on the bombing of the migrants and the that killed 44 people now earlier the un's mission in libya said the attack would constitute a war crime while the un chief through a spokesman demanded a full independent investigation he condemns this horrendous incident in the
8:50 am
strongest terms and he expresses his deepest condolences to the families of the victims and wishes are equipped recovery to those injured the secretary general calls for an independent investigation of the circumstances of this incident to ensure that the perpetrators are brought to justice it is important to note that the united nations had provided exact coordinates of the detention center to the parties the un recognized government says forces loyal to war. are responsible for the lady to the ministry of interior for the government of national court denounces the horrible crime that's been committed against the detention center for illegal migrants into georgia that took place last night carried out by hell if a huff does criminal aircraft this is a definite crime in every respect which has led to a humanitarian tragedy the interior ministry affirms that it will take all legal measures to pursue and catch the war criminals both domestically and internationally. well half the rejects that allegation has spokesman says they were
8:51 am
targeting a weapons depot controlled by an armed group allied to the tripoli government. we were surprised to see the false claims that the migrant camp was targeted the syria houses no migrants and no libyan civilians lost our will market of the weapons supply coming from misrata came through this point therefore we destroyed a legitimate target of our enemy. but if the claims are true they brought those illegal migrants to that area on purpose therefore we are innocent it was a legitimate target and 17 minutes later the migration center was destroyed 17 minutes later. we'll hear more about what took place at the u.n. shortly but 1st mahmoud a head went to a hospital in tripoli where the survivors are being treated these are my gran's who were injured yesterday by the airstrike in the migrant detention center in
8:52 am
a neighborhood in eastern tripoli from nigeria and also there are from some of them are from roll call the situation is very bleak here and they say that they have lost friends and they say if it's their choice they want to be sent back to their countries. but. we've been promised to be sent back to our countries for more than a month but they kept us in that detention center into jura they promised to let us go this week but we were hit by the airstrike. some of them said that they wanted to or they were planning to cross the mediterranean towards europe others said that they were just regular wages workers here in tripoli like construction workers and they were detained with a security forces just because they don't have proper. residency documents in all cases these wanted migrants are among. dozens of
8:53 am
wanted migrants who were transferred to other medical centers in the capital tripoli some wanted migrants were released those who have only minor injuries but these migrants will most probably have to stay longer or minister than most of the holy determiners for those who finish medical treatment there will be sent to the illegal migration authorities as for the dead the interior ministry and the general prosecutor can decide whether to bury them here or send their corpses to there and the seas ended all worried that they could be transferred to other of detention centers and there are brand else takes us through the un security council's emergency meeting the security council met for more than 3 hours on wednesday discussing the airstrike on the detention center on the outskirts of
8:54 am
tripoli but they were unable to reach any conclusion on whether to take action and in fact unable even to issue a joint statement here is the president of the of the security council the prove you know ambassador to starve mates quadro. i think that these guys from sweating in what seemed really good terms the combination of all these he knows. that the key. and the. compound were there were few do you think many migrants and we all condemn that we have agree or now and then are meant for the pins maybe we'll have to stay made by 2 we are still discussing it earlier secretary-general mtoni of good generous decried the events in tripoli in strong terms saying it was a horrific act and saying that he himself was outraged by it he called for an independent
8:55 am
investigation could tear is also noted that the un had some time ago advised all of the belligerents in libya of the exact coordinates of the detention center housing those refugees and migrants in an effort to make sure that this type of event did not take place by accident he wants to have an independent investigation now that will be in the hands of the government in libya that is recognized by the united nations it's worth noting that embassador maser quadro said there could be some statement coming out later at an unspecified time also the u.n. in the security council is expected to take up the issue of libya again but not until july 29th. north korea is accusing the u.s.
8:56 am
of being hell bent on hostility towards it and being obsessed with sanctions and responding to allegations that it breached a cap on petroleum imports north korea's mission to the u.n. issued this statement the united states is practically more and more hell bent on hostile acts against the d.p. r. k. that acronym refers to the country's official name it goes on to say it's quite ridiculous for the us to continue its pressure campaign considering sanctions as a penny for all problems it's a sharp turn of events from these scenes just use ago when donald trump became the 1st sitting u.s. president to visit north korea there he met kim jong il an ad the demilitarized zone between the north and south korea and they agreed to resume denuclearization talks. more from washington d.c. . some experts have called trump's impromptu meeting with kim jong un and his steps into north korea as the 1st sitting u.s. president to do so a gift to north korea because the u.s.
8:57 am
scott really nothing in return while north korea was bestowed with a certain legitimacy well this statement from north korea's u.n. mission is essentially saying it's not going to say thank you for this shift its statement is accusing the u.s. essentially of talking out of both sides of its mouth while president trump was initiating these peace talks with the north north korean leader members of his administration at the urging of the u.s. state department was leading an effort at the u.n. to try to get member countries to send north korean foreign workers home and this was in response to u.s. allegations that north korea is violating sanctions against oil imports and in this statement from north korea notes that the u.s. sent a letter to member countries along with the u.k. france and germany that was delivered on june 29th urging for this
8:58 am
retaliation against breaking the same sions and that on that same day trump had tweeted his impromptu invitation to meet kim jong un at the d.m.z. so certainly the fact that this statement from north korea's u.n. mission comes out today is an indication that it's saying things are not hunky dory between the 2 nations after this photo op and that tensions are still high. to sit on our talks have resumed between all of the opposition and the ruling military gent on transferring power to civilian government negotiations between the 2 sides collapsed a month ago after security forces raided a sit in protest killing dozens of demonstrators the talks in the capital khartoum are being mediated by the african union and ethiopian officials the opposition had said it would only resume talks once certain conditions are met and that includes an investigation into the killings of protesters calvin darkens the president of cd
8:59 am
global strategies group and an international affairs analyst he says the military will be under increasing pressure to make a deal with the protest leaders. well i think that they're coming to terms with what we're all seeing now there's a master decide what we're all seeing because you know the internet is still out so we're not getting all of the real time. kind of reaction of what's going on on the ground but they see that even without the internet that the sudanese people are continuing to protest they are not relenting and they realize this is not something that the sudanese people or the people outside of the country support them are going to easily give up so i think they're basically going to try to manage transitioning to that civilian led transitional body with. maintaining as much power as they possibly can well i think that if it was up to those neighbors and those countries are support them that are more in favor of military rule because it supports their and then the sudanese people who are protesting wouldn't really have
9:00 am
a chance but i think that they do i think that people have been you know focusing on what's been going on sudan more. than they hadn't they had before and that i think it's a pretty easy argument that folks are making around the world that there should be civilian. transitional government especially after the sheer study years in power so i do think that it's going to be a hard call i'm for the protesters but i don't think that the military has any choice because as they see the protests of only increased even after they tried to clamp down there is interim president insists that elections are the best way to end the country's political crisis as months of anti-government protests show no sign of letting up there called for a national dialogue over how to hold presidential elections but he did not set a date for the vote and he says the military will not be involved in those discussions.
