a series of public meetings to explain why they signed a polish sharing deal with the men the tree a new council will be set up ahead of elections in 3 years and thousands of algerians have returned to the streets once again corn freedom and democracy protesters are tired of corruption and want. to save the mass demonstrations are taking place on the anniversary independence from french. and it's also independence day in venezuela opposition leader on why bill has been battling his supporters calling for president. resignation protesters gathered outside the you went office and the capital caracas demanding an end. and to political repression also renewed his call to the army to turn against the president but so far though has the backing of the country's powerful military in the past hour he addressed the nation surrounded by his generals at a military parade celebrating the country's independence day let's go to our

correspondent trains abolishes joining us live from buenos ideas in argentina following all the events in caracas and the events today on the anniversary of independence tories are very much reflecting the political events of today. well that's correct we saw venezuela's independence day the 1st being very early in the morning with the celebration with that mass panthea and that's where venezuela's independence voters are varied and later on we've seen precedent for his side what he called a civilian military parade in a military academy in venezuela and that's where we saw in a way a show of strength we've seen tang send weapons security forces fighter jets among other things a president who has said that anyone that is thinking about attacking venezuela and trying to get him out of office will have a lot to deal with if that were to be the case he also spoke about the possibility

of some type of any go see ation with the opposition he says that he will never cease to try to find a perfect way out of the current crisis however we do know that currently those new will see asians are frozen that's something that opposition leader one way though has said in the past basically saying that the government has used them in the past in order to win time while this parade is happening at this point right now opposition leader one way those on the streets calling on for president for nicolas mandalas resignation he's saying that the united nations human rights report confirms what they've been saying for a long time that venezuela is. dictatorship where syria's human rights abuses have been taking place and that's why he's asking people to join him on this demonstrations today and to raise a how much has that u.n. report overshadowed the events of today.

well most certainly this human rights for it is everywhere it's in the government parade but it's also on the opposition it's been some people say i've been wallish reports because it talks about extra judicial killings in poor neighborhoods in anti-crime operations around $7000.00 people killed in the past 18 months according to the united nations also the erosion of venezuela's democracy is dismantling of the checks and balances in the country the persecution of a political opponents and the economic crisis that has force around 4000000 people out of the country so most definitely for the government this report is biased saying that this is another attack by imperialism let's not forget that initially the government hoped that this was going to be softer in a way mostly because of michelle is a former president of chile a center left president and they were hoping that she's going to be more to more stopped along this report well that did not happen and that's why also the

opposition has taken to the streets there saying that this is a demonstration not wholly against the government but also a demonstration to fight against human rights abuses and torture in the country turns to thank you very much for that for now that is tori isabeau with the very latest live and when aside in spank you. now at least 3 people have been killed in a car bomb attack in southern turkey the blast happened in the town of they hardly close to the syrian border it's understood those killed were inside the vehicle at the time of the explosion turkish president dredger 5 everyone says the bombing was likely to be linked to what he calls terrorism. of course in gibraltar has ordered the detention of an iranian oil tanker for 14 days authorities are questioning the crew and examining the cargo they had on has condemned what it describes as the illegal seizure of the tanker by brushing off the spanish coast the u.k. suspects the iranian ship was trying to deliver oil to syria in breach of use e.u. sanctions paul brennan has the latest. after the initial diplomatic flurry on

thursday the situation appears to settle a little bit but the process is ongoing and there are 2 strands to it 1st of all is the procedural process and that is the interviewing of those $28.00 crew members on board the gray swan this oil tanker which remains anchored within the shadow of the rock of gibraltar being interviewed as witnesses not as potential suspects by a contingent of around 50 royal gibraltar police who are on board that oil tanker conducting those interviews and the investigation and the police are undertaking is to try to establish exactly what the cargo is where it came from where it was going to what the exact destination was that we're looking at the ships logs and various other documents on board and speaking to the crew as well for that information a warning from the u.k. foreign office here in london is that the process of that investigation could take in their words several weeks so it looks like it could be

a pro loaned kind of situation there in the mouth of the mediterranean and that feeds into the diplomatic and political situation the iranians continue to be very angry that this ship has been stopped in this way a former leader of the iranian republican guard has been on social media suggesting that the iranians in retaliation should contemplate stopping and detaining a british ship in the gulf region no indication from the iranian government that they will actually take that course of action. and the other aspect to all of this is the gibraltarian government which is bristled at the idea that it was only acting on it at the behest of the americans we heard from the spanish acting foreign minister who said that the information that led to this operation came from the united states gibraltar denying that they were acting at the behest of any 3rd party nation saying that they were simply upholding europeans. sanctions law the

statement from the gibraltarian saying there has been no political request at any time from any government we acted independently based on suspected breaches of existing law and not at all based on extraneous political considerations to take that to face value. now iraq is caught in the middle of the escalating tension between the u.s. and iran and speaking to al jazeera iraq's national security adviser said a war would be disastrous for every country in the region he did though lee is a crisis that threatens international peace it threatens regional peace and stability in the middle east it escalates militarily it will be a catastrophe for this region i think if the whole region thinks deeply and wisely it will find that solving this crisis is in the interest of all a peaceful diplomatic solution. there's been another demonstration in hong kong this time by the mothers of student protesters that are gathered in a central park to demand the government to listen to their children and address

their demands it is the 2nd time they protested in the last month against the government's controversial extradition meanwhile the student protesters in the territory say they won't hold talks with the government unless they're in public leaders of the city's largest student unions who are responding to chief executive kerry lands offer to meet in private a small number of demonstrators ransacked and vandalized the legislative council building on monday. to malawi now where there's been no letup in the 6 week fined by opposition protesters against the reelection of their president thousands marched on parliament in the cabinet and a long way president that he could deny of allegations that the results of the election in may doctored farmer the miller has more from neighboring south africa the latest protests led by opposition parties and a coalition for human rights who are demanding that president peter muhtar rica step down they're also angry with the electoral commission which they say is

responsible for what they are calling a fraudulent election which took place in may and in that election which i recall was reelected by a very narrow margin for a 2nd term of thousands of people gathered in the capital long where the worst skirmishes between opposition supporters and supporters of ruling party about 3000 people marched to parliament and camps they overnight they are expected to continue these demonstrations throughout the day today and some shops looted and property was damaged during the protests that have already taken place the opposition's blame supporters of the government democrat democratic progressive party for that destruction and also for attacking opposition protesters and the demonstrators say they will continue their protests as long as it takes to get top electoral offices to step down now we haven't heard much from president mubarak of

besides calling for opposition parties one of them led by the former vice president solace to lima to accept the election results but these opposition parties have in fact gone to court to have it a null the election results as well as they also want fresh elections to be held now these protests have. continued since the election results were announced more than a month ago and these opposition parties say they'll continue them as long as is necessary. to the u.s. state of alaska now a record breaking heat wave has turned a pristine forest and to math a wildfire as dense smoke is covering large parts of the state people in some communities have been moved to safety while others are being want to prepare for the worst and agalloch a report from sterling. on the can i pin incident the swan

lake fire has been raging for a month officials say in recent years these kinds of fires have become more frequent and persistent but alaska is also in the midst of an unprecedented heat wave that shows no signs of abating local firefighters and emergency staff are being reinforced by so-called hot shot crews from across the u.s. conditions are monitored by the hour in order to tackle what is now a massive blaze this is a case of prioritizing where people and infrastructure is basically exactly also what's good for the environment and what's safe for firefighters that's always going to be our number one priority. on the ground staff are stretched thin and have been on the front lines of this blaze for weeks videos posted by crews fighting to control these wildfires showed just how difficult and dangerous the work is we came across the brook valley firefighters a crew made up of native alaskans from remote communities who are vital and highly trained part of this operation we all here is one. we're all here to

do our job to help help alaska and. help save people's homes there was a fire in 2015 in the lotto and there was a lot of firefighters there to save our community and when i get back we're just meters away from the main road into sterling but just look at this scene here behind me some of these areas over here are today. just for firefighters to go on foot so i look up to the scooping up the water to try and tackle the flames in this one like virus so far consumed almost 350 square kilometers and it's one of more than 80 fires across the state hotspots of blaring up all the time and experts say these fires may not be extinguished until the seasons change and that could be weeks away. equality across the southern part of alaska is now a big concern with plumes of smoke covering the mountains close to the state's largest city anchorage. forecasters say alaska's heat wave

a factor in making the fires worse may continue for weeks for the foreseeable future this is going to hold in place that week window that we work out in time for events like this that i'm capable of forecasting for it looks like it's going to hold for now so yeah pretty hot hot and dry to be continued for sure the role the climate change plays is something at the back of many people's minds here they call it just say alaska summers appear to be getting longer and hotter if that trend continues shared resources could be stretched to breaking point and gallacher al-jazeera stilling alaska. hello again on is a product of the headlines on al-jazeera the u.n. security council is calling for a cease fire in libya and it is condemning tuesday's attack on a detention center near tripoli at least 60 people were killed many of them

refugees and migrants probably has the latest from the u.n. . the 3rd of july the u.n. security council met in closed session for several hours more than 3 hours trying to come up with a response to the attack on the detention center in libya but they were unable to do so because the u.s. would not agree or could not green like the language in the resolution so now. on the 3rd day after the attack the security council has come out with a press statement condemning the attack which as the death toll now of course has risen from the initial estimate of 44 to 53 people beyond that the members of the security council stressed the need for all parties to commit to a cease fire opposition leaders and so don holding a series of public may sinks to explain why they signed a polish and day and what the military junta on thursday both sides agreed on

have another full news bulletin for you and just under 30 minutes coming up next as inside story thank you for watching. an iranian oil tanker is seized by british marines off gibraltar apparently on orders from the united states what's behind this dramatic move and how can you europe now the gate escalating tension between the u.s. and iran this is inside story.

hello and welcome to the program on iran cone an iranian old friend is that the center of a growing international dispute british marines boarded and detained the ship. as it was sailing in. a british territory on spain's south coast the u.k. believes it was violating european union sanctions by carrying iranian oil to syria spain says it was the united states that ordered the vessel be stopped iran condemned what it called an illegal interception and summoned the british ambassador to tehran the u.s. and iran have been engaged in a war of words for months as washington precious tehran to renegotiate the 2015 nuclear deal this action the rose from information giving the gibraltar government reasonable grounds to believe that the vessel the grace one was acting in breach of european union sanctions against syria in fact we have reason to believe that the

grace one was carrying its shipments of crude oil to the ban yes refinery in syria that refinery is the property of an entity that is subject to european union sanctions against syria the u.s. national security advisor john bolton called their detention excellent news a former commander of iran's revolutionary guard is threatening retaliation saying if britain doesn't release the iranian oil tanker it is the author or is his duty to seize a british oil tanker. i. let's bring in our panel joining us from teheran hassan medea an assistant professor of political science at the university of tehran in berlin ali for the nature of a visiting fellow at the brookings doha center and in washington d.c. jeff stacy a former u.s. state department official under president barack obama welcome to you all like to begin in teheran 1st the brits have made their move the u.s.

national security advisor john bolton seems to be positively giddy about the whole thing calling it excellent news what does tehran do next. of course tehran see it in line with the recent you know act trends that have been taken by the brits whether guards to run on the j.c.b. or a. for instance and for your answer the brits came out of it with out and in. suggesting that iran was behind it while the u.a.e. itself said there is no you know any think that links iran to the incident on other issues of the downing of the u.s. spy jet or a spy drone the brits also endorsed the. u.s. you know rhetoric and narrative a bit and i think basically in recent months london has been you know reflecting

whatever the white house had to say this incident i think is in line with that shift in. london's you know policy with regard to iran because up until now ever since the sanctions have been in place the e.u. sanctions on syria there there hasn't been any incident but now so the iranians basically the general mood here is that the brits are doing what the united states wants and it's in line with their policy of bandwagon with the united states against iran but you know you heard sending the journalism syria against e.u. sanctions you're not supposed to do that. that's of course that's easy use sanctions not iran sanctions they the e.u. is now or the britain the brits are doing what the united states the trump

administration has been doing that the administration has been imposing unilateral sanctions and penalize you know pressurizing others to abide by them the e.u. is imposing sanctions and you know. forcing other or trying to force others to abide by them which is it self the e.u. and clued in the brits have been criticizing the united states for let's bring in washington d.c. here and stacey jeff you worked on the original j c p o a deal you know a lot of the players involved this deal has now almost completely broken down is there any way back for the u.s. on this is any way back for iran on this do you see this as being a a moment where there's an opportunity or a view given up on this deal ever being same through again. we're not fully given up on the deal and the europeans aren't although this is certainly

a signal to the iranians that they probably are and so we've got all sorts of perception problems here and the likelihood is that the deal in terms of iran's adherence to it on and richmond levels and these sorts of things they'll probably push the end even more file a few more provisions but the real concern is what's going to happen right in the region with the different. capacities and pieces of military equipment that are in place we're probably going to see now another move by iran to lash out and target someone either directly or with its subsidiaries in the region such as the who teaser others and that's where the real danger is here that the red line that this administration has out there could be moved right across and then an exchange takes place and then a rapid escalation that's the real danger here where more and more boxed in so the

agreements that's not really the greatest concern here that can be gotten back in line with relatively quickly the real problem with the military assets in the region and how close to each other they are and the difficulty now in terms of any kind of military exchange targeting of another piece of either u.s. or allied military forces that is the real issue at this stage it is a very serious issue but you this administration they did put those military assets that the iranians were sticking to the deal according to your own sources the the white house itself under president obama they were very happy that with the way the iranians are sticking to the deal then this administration changes everything and suddenly we have those assets in the region this is warmongering classical monroe. sholay it is i mean the drug administration is guilty of starting this entire crisis so there's that fault and there's plenty of it lying around the difficulty

now is that the europeans do not want this deal violated and the iranians are pushing the ante here by essentially aligning the europeans with the americans because they're really out of moods everyone is boxed in here the us is boxed in iran is boxed in that's why the danger level is going up and the tensions are going up the sources of this quite rightly are entirely the fault of the us but now we're in a really dangerous situation right there in the gulf with these assets and that is the problem there red lines on both sides we need to get back to discussions and obviously sanctions lifted and moving to a new deal except rick cetera let's bring in the for the who's a visiting fellow at the brookings doha center he's actually and then right now do you see a way out of this of both sides is there something is there

a way of backing down. well and the interest situation is very difficult and so there is not. i mean the only way out would be that both tehran and washington become more flexible so that for example washington announces that to iran beyond you know the signal that they're actually willing to talk without preconditions as president trump recently said to signal to iran that they would be willing to stop some of the sanctions and this would send a positive signal to iran and maybe give them some courage to enter into negotiations because so the iranian perspective for the last few months was that they were in a position of weakness and there is no. there is no reason to engage in talks with the united states or the debate has much more multifaceted in toronto surely but

for now we don't have the green light from the supreme leader of iran which is an absolute necessity so we see at least rhetorically finale more willingness to talk from the american side than from the iranian side but bes as it may we might say a different dynamic if iran decides to go beyond to go to move towards 20 percent of low enriched uranium in the next few days and this my create a new dynamic inside of which the europeans will find it very difficult to continue the kind of political and diplomatic support to iran so all of this kind of. play of brinkmanship from the u.s. and iranian side of the last few weeks and months is now entering a critical stage let me bring in her son here in tehran you heard what our guest in berlin had to say is there a way for the iranians to come back to the negotiating table and turn this around

or is it simply too late. i think iranians have never left the negotiation table they have been there it's the united states that a got out of the know from the negotiating table and try to bring iran on its own terms to another negotiating tables so this is clear the united states violated the deal then imposed the sanctions that were lifted as part of the deal and then forced others to you know abide by those sanctions and now is in a ratcheting up the pressure the maximum pressure and i'm in the the point that your guest from washington brought up that everybody's boxed in i think that's correct but the party that is suffering is iran it's not the e.u. it's not the united states so iran sees. the way that the e.u.

is dealing with u.s. sanctions as. as a violation of it of its own commitment within the deal but it's basically it's not working against the e.u. it's basically doing what the e.u. and the united states is doing that they basically got back from their commitments they got back to the 1st square where the negotiations started and led to the j.c. a and iran basically is i think is heading back as well to the 1st square to be equal to deal with them on equal footing and i think that's that's a choice that has been made into iran iranians cannot basically the authorities here the ruling elites cannot you know afford to basically woo back and neil be behind before us maximum pressure they have to create a leverage as to go to and if they are to go to another round of discussions or

negotiations provided that there will be a willing mess on the. partly but i think what's important for iran now is the economics of the u.s. sanctions and they are not doing basically it's part of the deal. and it's right and rationally so iran is you know pressurizing the e.u. and the other parties to the deal to live up to their own commitments within the deal that's actually very interesting question let me bring in lethal and in berlin it's not actually illegal to transport iranian all around the world those a unilateral sanctions being placed on. by the u.s. on iran so it's actually quite legal to transport oil around the world it's much more difficult to sell it in iran does need money now because it's being squeezed so much do you feel that the iranians are now absolutely desperate to get hold of cash and that's why they took such a risky move allegedly by trying to get this all to syria or do you think this is

just been happening for a long time. well i mean 1st of all. the iranian oil shipment where it's syria i'm not sure if in return the iranians would get back cash from the assad regime so basically what was happening during the last few years is that basically iran was providing a lot of material and other help to the assad regime and not really under turn for money and for cash i mean so this is not the issue. i think the timing of this incident is very interesting because it comes after the european union has announced that a special purpose vehicle which is about a mechanism set up by the european union called instax is going to be operational and. this would of course not be substantive because as it is it stands now. through the instax actually not really massive and significant transactions can be made between europe in iran but at least symbolically this you move

is is a signal to washington that the u.s. actually circumventing u.s. sanctions. and so when so this is incident in juba tar it was. the be asked of the americans and preside at a time as well when the acting foreign minister of spain missed the boat ireland is poised to become the next e.u. foreign policy chief and this puts a mr burrell also in a very difficult situation talking about infringement possible infringement of sovereignty of spain by britain on it so if this is a calculated move by the united states to do this at this particular timing this is also a way to drive a wedge among the europeans in this critical juncture. but as such the incident is not that significant it is only significant because it comes within

a context of escalating tensions between the 2 sides let's bring in washington d.c. had the european union has played a negotiating role between the u.s. and iran in the past it has been part of the a talks that has the iranians have felt for a very long time that they did have friends within the european union that they could talk talk to and they could lean on in times of toughness that we in the last few months what we've seen though is the e.u. not really acting the way it said it would act when it came to the iranians and this deal how much of that is to do as our guest in tehran says is just pandering to washington. well there's a bit of that but the most important thing here is that the europeans can do something beyond just enforcing or not invoicing saying sions including related to this tinker's seizure what they should do in particular france in a menu mccrone is step in and mediate the japanese prime minister avi tried to do

this but it was at a time where there was no real off ramp for the iranians and so it wasn't really. appropriate in terms of the sequencing but there is now an opportunity right when everyone is boxed in with very few moves to make to save face as it were it's time for france to come in especially because they're not doing what they should be doing over in libya with the support of general haftar there's a grand opportunity here for france and the rest of the e.u. to come in and broker a new deal remember trump has really only opposing this bit because of domestic considerations because this had to do with president obama he'll sign something as he's done with a trade deal that looks relatively similar to the previous deal so iran can think about that take that i'm bored strategically with the push from the europeans as a real opportunity to get a some couple of small sanctions relieved get back to the table iran can think creatively about what else it could offer so this deal looks just somewhat

different and we can get back to adherents to it and moving forward into the next chapter of this war in the 3rd phase of this crisis we need to move to the 4th phase where the tensions actually start to come down and they're back at the negotiating table housen in teheran it's an interesting point isn't it surely one with talking about what president donald trump wants is not the j.c. pioli effect if you wants the t.c.p. oh if he wants the trump card brands and plan of action why don't you just give it to him. well i think. to begin with iran was not happy with the j.c. puree in the 1st place both parties came down from you know from there are demands ideal deal that they had in mind and got to say and now you have the united states reneging on the same deal that iran was not happy with ask and it to step it went back even further so. basically the question here in tehran is that

what should we are for now amend the entire nuclear file to the united states iran's in no leverage in the in the region that is basically and very effective the you know is used as a deterrent means or iran's ballistic missiles that the only basic you know defense means that iran has these are the questions what what can we offer to tromp and if it's not j.c. if you know it's g c p u it would be of course different from the j.c. and were not happy with the j.c. surely they want to be with another version of it that the trumpet ministration can sell within the united states so iran's choice is not and i think the other question is who can we trust in the united states and i mean that the administration while a bit of a deal that is

a part of international law if it has been endorsed by the u.n. security council that that administration could not be trusted that's the essence of many of the arguments that has been made here into her and i think there's a as much as there was a consensus to go with for a deal with that obama administration and the previous administration there is a consensus here nowadays it is felt. in the in the decision making and circles and elites that we shouldn't do that with the trump illustration at least not for now let me bring in ali in berlin here you've heard what both i guess about to say they stated their positions very clearly there doesn't seem to be any common ground right now will there be any common ground under a president like donald trump. well let me start by saying that it is true that

last year the crisis was kicked off after the trump administration unilaterally basically violated the nuclear deal although iran was sticking to its side of the commitments with the iranian strategy ever since this kind of strategic patience has not been successful it has been basically to bank upon the europeans to help them out to be to provide them with the economic benefits of the deal but giving the power consolation in the international order where the united states is still the predominant power in the international financial banking system the sanctions are imposed on iran have been much more forceful than a lot of observers have been. have been thinking that they might be and so the other part of the iranian strategy is by doing so they would be able to drive a wedge between the europeans and the americans but the reality remains that the europeans will not be able to provide iran with the economic benefits of the deal

as long as u.s. sanctions are still in place so at the end of the day so europe is basically out of the picture it's basically down to iran and the united states to sit down and talk despite. aspects of the legalities and illegality that my colleague from to iran mentioned this is how the situation is and. that the iranians have been quite successful during the past few weeks and months to show not only to the united states but also to. iran allies of the united states in the region that the costs of a military confrontation with iran would be very very high and on the other side also that trump himself you know seems not to be interested in a large scale military confrontation and then just a story already out of korea israel running out as i want to bring in jeff stacey in washington d.c.

where should the iranian simply wiped out president all of trump. no they shouldn't because the tensions are likely to lead to a military exchange well before the president leaves and of course everything could go relatively back to normal were someone like joe biden. to come into this and that would be a good thing but the europeans are not out of the picture there were quiet discussions still going on right up until the enrichment violation was announced and that quiet diplomacy now and needs to become of quiet behind the scenes and loud out in front of the scenes brokering getting the sides back to the table someone like mccrone could get president trump to listen and release a few of the sanctions in order to get back to the table and iran could think creatively about what else they could do in here because of course if you look at the hoodies for example in yemen they've got increased capabilities and they are

actually in the so the attacks especially most recently on one of the saudi airports you know killed some civilians so there are some things like that that could be added to the deal that would make the entire region more secure and more peaceful and what we want to get back to is an iran that is has normal relations with the world and everyone with it. economically viable again and moving away from pushing confrontation around the region and to a new era really and this ironically could even happen during the trump administration we just need to dress up the discussions and the provisions of the new deal slightly differently it's not as difficult as everyone seems to believe it is gentlemen we are out of time i want to thank you all has an idea an hour late for that measured and jeff stacy and thank you too for watching you can see the program again any time by visiting our website out is there at dot com and for

the united nations security council is calling for a cease fire in libya and it is condemning tuesday's attack on a detention center near tripoli at least 60 people were killed many of them refugees and migrants since warlord honey for half the launched his offensive to capture the capital in april the world health organization says almost a 1000 people have been killed the un recognized government which is resisting the offensive says it's lost contact meanwhile one of its warplanes that's as half those fighters have shown the wreckage of what they say is a jet they downed. well rob reynolds is live at the u.n. headquarters in new york so the u.n. security council calling for a cease fire rob and condemning tuesday's attack just days after they wasn't able to because the u.s. delegation to the u.n. refused to condemn it. well that's right elizabeth you

could put this in the category of better late than never it's not really clear exactly why the united states was not able to sign on to the statement after the u.n. security council met in a closed session for several hours on wednesday but in any event they were unable to go along with it now they have given it the green light so in addition to condemning the attack which most of the individual members states have already done the council is stressing the need for all parties to urgently deescalate the conflict and for an immediate cease fire now or at least to commit to a cease fire at some stage now the council said that peace and security in libya can only be achieved through a political solution and it expressed deep concern as well over the worsening

e.-man of terri in conditions in libya and also notably talked about its concerns over these migrant detention centers which are the responsibility of the government of libya that is the tripoli government that is recognized by the u.n. so there they're calling on them to improve conditions they're in then in a warning to other countries to keep out of the conflict and avoid exacerbating anything the security council called for full respect for the arms embargo by all member states and called on all member states not to intervene in the conflict or take measures to make it any worse and this comes after less than a week ago a raid on the general if there's headquarters out side of tripoli revealed as was shown on libyan government television the existence of

a number of. it's decayed weapons including javelin antitank weapons which were made in the united states but then according to the markings on the crates that these weapons were stored in had been sold to the united arab emirates in 2008 so this. addition to the statement warning member states to keep out of it and let the political process go to work under a hot sun sun solomon a special envoy to libya. could be in response to those developments elizabeth rob thank you very much for that for now that is rob rails with the very latest live at u.n. headquarters in new york and without that why haven't the latest from tripoli. a video that has been recently circulated online showing the moment when the detention center in a neighborhood in eastern tripoli was hit by an airstrike in now supervisors

of the detention center to confirm the video is accurate 100 percent as it was taken by the c.c.t.v. cameras all the elements we have seen in or around the detention center of the same we have been several times to that detention center since it was for this head on tuesday night by an airstrike and meanwhile the interior minister a government of national accord the government of national called that. if 16 fighter jet hit the detention center on tuesday night which killed $53.00 and refugees now also says that a team of experts from the united nations has proved that the detention center was hit by an airstrike but most also says that if libya fails to protect the migrants and refugees then they will decide to release all the migrants and

refugees and closed all detention centers in libya also calls on the united nations to corporate and to do its part in protecting the civilians in libya moving on now to our other big story of the day an opposition leaders and sudan are home in a series of public meetings to explain why they signed a power sharing deal with the military under the agreement a council will be set up for the leadership changing from the military to civilians after 21 months and while some protesters have welcomed the deal as a victory others see it as surrender priyanka gupta reports. do you spin down now opposition leaders in the capital can. a trying to convince everyone to support it the fact. that the agreement doesn't deal with all the issues but it deals with the levels of transitional power because the final text is now being legally

revised and will be published to the whole sudanese people. the coalition of opposition groups and the military have been at loggerheads for months the only return to the negotiating table this week after intensive mediation by theo pierre and the african union. going to develop that over the 2 sides agreed to establish a sovereign council to be shared between the military and civilians for 3 years or a little more but also agreed to create a civilian government that is nationalist competence and independent under the leadership of a prime minister that has the same qualities. the talks broke down in me over who would lead a transitional government. and the crisis deepened days later when security forces stormed a protest camp killing more than 100 people forces led by mohamed. known as timidity were accused of orchestrating the attacks on protesters. we would like to reassure

all the political forces and military movements as well as all the youth the men and women involved in this transition that this is a comprehensive agreement that doesn't exclude anyone and reflects the aspirations of the entire sudanese people. some say there will be no accountability while he make these involved there are always late he's way our relation. is not in the right it's not. it's not power sharing it's not that. he's and this is how this is you know. it's going to be hard. any sort of. anti-government demonstrations began last year with protesters calling for longtime leader or morrow the she to go the. military took over in a coup but protest is argue the ruling is a continuation of the she's demanding a transition to civilian government. 2 7 c c opposition the to see

they hope this deal will be the beginning for you and. the book that. well let's get more on this we're joined by eric raise his head on research and he's live for us from northampton massachusetts very good to have you with us on al-jazeera mr graves so is this a new beginning for saddam do you think we just don't know and we don't know in large measure because hunter continues to block internet access telephone access and most of the explaining that the agreement that's being done by the alliance for freedom and change is getting done in the greater kerttu and urban area let's remember how many places in sudan have been part of this uprising you know which is today described the green as resulting in a civilian but government well it's not at all clear to me or to many sudanese that it is generally civilian led and that comes down to the details of their sovereign

council and how it will one place we asked of waiting for those details but what we did hear from this press conference opposition members saying that they will be an independent transparent committee to look into the killings of dozens of protesters on june the 3rd how likely do you think that will be given that the man who is believed to have ordered what happened on that day is still part of the transitional military council. not only part of the transitional military council but i expect him to be part of the sovereign council grass even chair of the sovereign council in my own view there's no way with the military still defacto in control that the community thing approaching an independent investigation of the massacres of june 3rd and the violence preceding and following june. commander how messy and his records were horses are clearly the cause we have ample

amounts of still kluge video footage personal testimonies we know who's responsible and the fact that the alliance for freedom and change will say that they believe that it's possible to conduct an independent investigation is going to hurt their credibility i think as more and more details of this agreement spread throughout syria and mr reeves one of the things they said is that various neighboring countries the leaders are going to act as guarantors of any agreement do you think again from what we know so far that the other neighboring countries you know including ethiopia the prime minister who brokered the the deal have they put enough pressure on the transitional military council to cede more power i don't think their hands and mrs this is left the alliance are pretty much changed the very difficult position are they agreed to the.
