boris johnson plays a game of chicken with the e.u. saying it must compromise to stop and no deal breaks it. down truly military says it has suspended schools across the country until further notice the announcement comes after security forces fired live ammunition and tear gas at protesters during mass rallies against the killings of 5 students on monday the military leaders have condemned the killings and says it's not clear who's behind it a bit more going to ports or madison neighboring ethiopia. voicing anger thousands of demonstrators mostly high school and university students came out on tuesday in sudan's capital and other cities they're protesting to death of fellow protesters in north korea defense date on monday. when protesters came out decrying the lack

of threat and high fantastical titian prices security forces opened fire in response killing several and entering dozens others. had them with any blood for blood we will never accept anything but justice civilian we salute everyone and they're all bad city for standing for the sake of the nation it is an epic moment in our country's history as i was well mrs to the military council is that typed into all my goshi oceans and i must stop the killing our people the students in the streets this military council is nothing but ribbons of the old regime and they must stick to tell me how to use this protesters were also met with tear gas and live ammunition with doctors reporting several injuries as a result the protesters are also demanding justice and accountability following an announcement from an investigation committee that the ruling military is not to blame for killing protesters on june 3rd when

a month long pro-democracy tatin was attacked by the army the military council has been willing to dance in ousting longtime president already bashir in april they have been in talks with the opposition coalition known as the forces of freedom in change to form a transitional government and initial agreement was signed earlier this month but a final deal is yet to be reversed talks for that final deal have been repeatedly postponed over the past few days with uncertainty on when talks would resume some analysts say what happens next depends on the military council's you know the box right now of the gate or the transitional military council it is their responsibility for security forces therefore i think there is some trust and confidence on the part of the nation that in the event that these forces. are holding to their demands that they have the right to go out and. people do want some form of reckoning. in terms of some of the abuse of them have been perpetrated

by the former regime but at the same time i think you do need some kind of people. to give this transitional justice a trance but anger amongst the demonstrators is high as is the demand for justice and some demand to halt the negotiations and as protesters continue to be met with violence and certainty over sudan's future continues and if it can steer itself to a stable transitional period people morgan al-jazeera i did. well in an interview with sudanese state t.v. the head of the ruling military gender blamed the opposition for the tension in the country and says they don't know who opened fire. on a new kind of this protest has deviated from its course the group the called for the protests had exploited the students and other groups in the text the market one of the banks and looted some of its property some people say they were people on top of the building of khartoum bank who started shooting others say security

stationed in front of the bank are the ones who shot. well silliman baldo is a senior policy adviser at the enough project it's a nonprofit organization based in washington d.c. and working on conflict zones in africa he joins us live by skype from west orange county in new jersey good to get you on the program thank you for speaking to us so as we saw there the head of the military head of the transitional government says that they do not know who opened fire they don't know what's behind it is that likely is that possible. well a lot of us have seen our live feeds from. the truck of the american support forces. opening fire not even from of nashik of but from a piece of artillery mounted on. a half truck shooting at students

live a mission from home of jewellery piece this is what actually there throughout the world for mr mohan to see him there online forget me the love they don't know what shooting this is really. musically. jenny youngs on to our outrage of the killing of these. well yes our school of thought dignity and freedom right so given that there is so there was an investigation and to the previous shootings and to previous peaceful demonstrations and the transitional government had said our that investigation had found that they were rogue soldiers why would the security forces still be using live fire to quell protests particularly when it comes to children. because this is a limited establishment. to the killing of civilians so our future is to one of the last 3 decades which has excelled all only on winning or are going to sue millions

who are sudan we do 100-220-0530 extension 0000 people who were killed by doing missions from the sudanese on forces or cumberland by younger we believe. by the army operating under the line of command or don't consume millions willingly years and soothing upwards of 2000000 people who. may have been accustomed to lose use and do it a little surely we know what accountability they're continuing to do when they have excelled at doing all this time except that at this moment it's possible to catch an oldish on live feeds before they do toe world and it becomes increasingly if you go it's not impossible to organise personally i believe from the top of that it's. great to get your insight thank you very much for taking the time to talk to us

thank you for having me. ok in other news south korea says pyongyang has fired multiple unidentified projectiles off its east coast that's come 6 days after north korean leader kim jong un oversaw the testing of 2 new short range ballistic missiles at the south korean military joint chiefs of staff says they are monitoring the situation and case of additional launches we can now go live to so where are my pride is monitoring the situation for us there some rob what more can you tell us about this. we are still waiting to hear to get more details about the firing they are still being described as projectiles that were fired as you mentioned there of the coast this would have taken place just after 1st light here on the korean peninsula now that's a couple of hours ago so it is slightly strange that we haven't had by this stage more details from the military here in south korea about exactly what has taken

place so that could indicate that maybe they are still assessing all of the data about how many projectiles were involved more importantly perhaps what types of projectiles whether this increases the ante whether this is different from previous launches but as always with north korea all of these launches are carefully calculated so you have to look at why it is making this statement now and why it's having this test firing it could well be as we know they are unhappy about military exercises which are due to take place in the coming months between the united states and south korean forces because of the period of reconciliation we've had over the past year or so these exercises have very much been scaled back they are tend to be more like command and control classroom exercises rather than troops on the ground and planes in the air nonetheless north korea is unhappy about that also

it does coincide with the an important regional conference that's due to get under way in thailand now at this conference there will be the foreign ministers of japan south korea and also mike pompei of the u.s. secretary of state now it was thought at one point that north korea's foreign minister would attend that doesn't now seem to be the case so this could be north korea's way of making its presence felt at that conference did you read rob it's curious because they're not long ago donald trump made that historic visit to the demilitarized zone heralding a new era with relations with north korea despite the fact that his security advisers had said that north korea's tell could go rogue do you give us some context to what is happening here particularly with the fact that there is talks towards yet another summit that the u.s. . that's right we do seem to be back into this start stop process and at the moment we do seem to be in the stop phase of that we tend

to have received to be having another lol there has been all sorts of expectations that very unexpected meeting on the d.m.z. between donald trump and kim jong un as breathtaking as it was coming out of nowhere they promised to have working level talks after that now that took place almost a month ago now and still the those working level talks haven't taken place interestingly last week north korea launched 2 short range ballistic missiles that were said to be a new type of missile had a guidance system and so on and that was tended to be shrugged off by most people in particular the trumpet ministration they don't want anything to hamper the prospect of a nother summit of negotiations taking place it's be interesting to see exactly how serious this latest launch has been what type of projectiles they were and how they trumpet ministration will react to that it may well be that again they will try to

say this was not saying it's not an i.c.b.m. an intercontinental ballistic missile or anything larger than a short range missile and the talks are still on track but the reality is we're still waiting for those working level negotiations to to get going and then to try to deal with some of the nitty gritty that has to be dealt with if they are they are going to advance this dialogue beyond merely having photo opportunities to rub my pride there with the latest on pyongyang's latest provocation thank you very much. writes the u.n. humanitarian chief has pleaded to world leaders to end what he calls a bloody onslaught and syria as a province mark local crew warns that the continued violence may create the worst humanitarian disaster of the 21st century our diplomatic editor james bass has more details. the carraige this the 7th meeting of the security council since the intensification of the bombing of

a glib started in april and still division among council members and growing frustration at the continued failure of the un security council to end impunity for these crimes is a blight on the credibility of this body to carry out its core mandate the un sue military and coordinator. addressed council members directly you in the security council have ignored all the previous pleas you have heard. you know what is happening and you have done nothing for 90 days as the carnage continues in front of your eyes immediately after the meeting though 2 thirds of the security council said they believed it was mr lowe cox boss the u.n. secretary general antonio good terrorists who should take action 10 ambassadors stage what's known as a demarche a diplomatic petition delivered in person they said they believe the u.n.

chief had the power to set up an inquiry into who was bombing the hospitals in italy and you put the ball in the court of the security council but 10 members of that security council of now being to see the secretary general you were there at the meeting saying actually it's you that should take action you should set up an inquiry into these bombings are you now going to set up such an inquiry well yes members of the council have been to see the secretary general earlier today and raised issues with him in the sector generally thinking about the request that was made and he will in due course decide how best to address the request hannah and empty ordinary syrians are angry at what they see as passing the buck a doctor who ran a hospital in aleppo is now featured in a documentary about the war he's been in new york to express his outrage that the crimes he witnessed 3 years ago and now being repeated he has this message for the

international community i think it is the last chance for them to do the right thing to stand with the people like in this situation that it's not like the bad guys and the good guys and who do we stand with just like there are children mothers. people are dying. this is the satellite imagery of one syrian town and what's happened to it in recent months but it's far from clear whether there's a way to stop yet further destruction and loss of life james al-jazeera at the united nations well we have plenty more this news hour including to tell you how the u.s. administration defies a court order against separating migrant children from their parents. i'm natasha butler in normandy whether demolition of this dam has sparked a battle between 2 opposing environmental visions. and a caster semenya out will miss the world's intellect atlantics championships peter

will tell you more in sport. here a civil rights lawyer say that more than $900.00 migrant children have been separated from their families up order since last year the american civil liberties union found that nearly one out of every 5 children taken away from their parents is under the age of 5 and 2018 a judge ordered that the practice of splitting families must be halted rosalind joins us live from washington d.c. with more on this rosalind can you tell us more of that of what's come out of that report. well what the a.c.l.u. is alleging in federal court in california is that even though there is a court order basically banning the u.s. government from forcibly separating children and their parents when they come to

the us mexico border the a.c.l.u. is alleging that this practice is continuing and as you said by its calculations at least 911 children have been separated from their parents since this court order came out 13 months ago and the a.c.l.u. is alleging in its court filing that the separations are taking place not because of any real threat to the children's safety but for what the a.c.l.u. says are perhaps the most frivolous of reasons perhaps the person had an expired driver's license or perhaps the child didn't speak clearly enough english to say yes that's my mother or my father and so immigration officials used that as a reason to put the child in foster care or in a detention center and of some cases the a.c.l.u. says the children have been reunited with their parents but it's alleging that many more of the children are still separated from their parents and what they're asking

the judge to do in this case is to spell out in no uncertain terms under which circumstances the federal government can separate children from their parents when they arrive at the us mexico border the order that was handed down in june to 28000 does not have specific standards and the a.c.l.u. says that while it's trying to get this practice banned permanently there should at least be much clearer rules of the road to use the cliche in order to make certain that more children are not separated from their parents for what the a.c.l.u. says are frivolous reasons and then also sends as we said there a judge ordered for the separations to be curtailed so how is this happening and what is the political atmosphere the political conversation around this. well certainly what the a.c.l.u. is alleging is that even though this preliminary injunction and that's the

technical term was handed down by a federal judge in june 28th tain that a few months in after this order took effect that the federal government basically decided to ignore it or to try to argue that there were circumstances where the well being of children was in jeopardy and so it needed to have as broad discretion as possible in order to protect the welfare of these children the a.c.l.u. is arguing that this is a very specious argument that the federal government is coming up with frivolous reasons for separating children from their parents and they basically want the practice stopped they do point out however that they wouldn't have known about the return to separations of children from their parents if the federal government during mandated monthly consultations with the a.c.l.u. had started saying well yes we've actually started separating children from their parents again so whether or not the federal government is going to get points for

being open about what it is doing well that's really up for a judge to decide what the a.c.l.u. is hoping for is now a hearing where both sides have to argue their case before the judge russell and jordan and washington for us thank you. so the u.s. democratic presidential candidates will get their 2nd chance to show why they should be given the nomination to run against donald trump in the 2020 election 2nd televised debates are due to get under way in detroit in just under an hour now not all the candidates can appear on stage at once so much like the 1st debate this 2nd round will see the 20 candidates appear for tonight's. night one features big name contenders like bernie sanders elizabeth warren and betto o'rourke amongst others while wednesday will see joe biden come cory booker take to the stage along with

several lesser known participants after this round the threshold to qualify for the next debate who gets much harder they can then contenders will then need to prove that they have both the popular and a financial backing to progress all those culminates early next year when the party holds its presidential primaries and caucuses a series of electoral contests to select more than $3700.00 delegates to the democratic national convention and these delegates will decide on the final candidates to face off against donald trump. and call is the director of debates at the university of michigan and joins us live from detroit good to get you on the show thank you very much so tell us what is that stake as the 2nd round of debates here what will the viewers be watching out for. us as you mentioned in your direction there are very high stakes of the debates the next 2 nights because there won't be any next month in august and september the criteria really

exponentially increases in terms of polling and donations and so those lower tier candidates really have to make a major statement in these next 2 nights in order to remain in the race to get to the next 3 in houston texas so given the candidates we have there tonight what do you think are the key points that will be argued what will the focus be on. it's and i sets up a very interesting contrast you have elizabeth warren and bernie sanders kind of on the left you know more liberal side of democratic party than you have a lot of other more moderate candidates such as better or the british judge and others and so i think more than personality contrast you'll have real differing ideas for such things as medicare for all new deal and it will really show the ideological fight between the different side. it's of the democratic party heading into the 2020 election and is there and given given all the press we've seen about donald trump and his recent comments do you think about there will be much

arguments or much debate about him or any you know any any. any installed thrown at him would he be part of this process. i do think that the topic of donald trump is really going to be present and forward tonight there's no way to escape the tweets on the controversy from the last several days i think a lot of the candidates when answering questions will move it towards attacking trump in debates like this are set up to determine which candidate is best able equipped to defeat trump both on the debate stage but in the election i don't think we'll see any negative mudslinging amongst the candidates tonight many of them are colleagues in the senate but i do think as always trump will be front and center and he will be taking fire from all the candidates on the stage tonight and the interesting thing about these these debates are these candidates is that most of them seem to be pushing towards the more except for bernie sanders is that what they want to present is this what it's seems like that the us democratic supporters

want to see more from moderate candidates. it's a really bifurcated field you have a lot of the younger candidates are more liberal and want radical solutions getting rid of the filibuster in the senate you know medicare for all getting rid of kind of the current private health care system a radical new deal to try to improve the environment but then there is a lot of older and more moderate voters and it's really a split in the parties and historically more moderate and older voters come out in vote and that's why vice president biden is doing so well in the polls right now is because he was a vice president for 8 years and he has a tremendous amount of support and so it's kind of the ideological soul of the democratic party is on display during the debates and we'll see what the did the voters want or the candidate best equipped to challenge president trump thank you very much great to get your inside their. well you know as president

donald trump has brushed off accusations of racism as he doubles down on his criticism of prominent black and minority leaders blacks a politician's boycotts at an event the president attended over what they called his racist rhetoric 400 years of u.s. democracy and trump accuse those who stayed away of acting against their own people from spain involved in a series of online attacks against 4 non white progressive congress and then a black politician who represents baltimore and a prominent civil rights activist. i am the least great person there is anywhere in the world when gunmen who i know normally you know most people might be like this as you know with a bunch fortunately of your but i got along with about. these are ready. to race but when you go let me go let me play. what i've done for african american children. so president is able to work at the right.

the british prime minister says the e.u. must compromise in order to prevent and no deal breaks out on october 31st now johnson made those comments during a trip to wales where he pledged continued support for farmers in the event of a deal farmers. of mass slaughter of livestock for welfare reasons if the u.k. concert here a deal we're not aiming for in a deal bet in which we don't think that's where we'll end up this is very much like talking to partners across the channel they know that 3 times the house of commons is thrown out that backstop there's no way that we can get it through if they can't compromise if they really can't do it then clearly we have to get ready for when they do exit and i think will do i think that the people of this country are full of resolve and purpose and we will look to the forming sector meanwhile the british pound has fallen to its lowest levels against the us dollars in more than 2 years

it has also dropped a 7 month low against the euro the currency has been falling since boris johnson became prime minister last week economists warn it could weaken even further as the likelihood of a no deal breaks it increases so how has been following developments from london. to an extent i think the u.k. will have grown used to a fluctuating pound in the 3 years and a bit since the break that referendum in 2016 ebbing and flowing with the fortunes of brakes at the concern from a currency point of view now will be how far the pound may yet have to fall and how quickly with some analysts suggesting it could go to parity with the euro even conceivably parity with the dollar in the run up to this october 31st deadline and the hard breaks it no deal rhetoric of new prime minister boris johnson who has set the bar for a new deal with the e.u. so high he wants the northern ireland back stop removed altogether that the e.u.

is unlikely to concede and boris johnson says well if they don't change their minds it will be a no deal bragg's it in wales talking to welsh farmers he's been warned of civil unrest among welsh farmers who face large tariffs being slapped on their land exports in the event of no deal will so every which way boris johnson looks there are the potential negative consequences of no deal that hasn't done anything to change his very positive optimistic rhetoric on no deal or from ramming home the central message as he did in wales saying the ball is in the e.u. hughes court if they don't concede no deal will be britain's. and answer from the e.u. came from earlier varadkar the irish t. shock in a scratchy apparently phone call saying the e.u. is a unified in its position that they will be no renegotiation of to resume a's withdrawal agreement no removal of the backstop. and still ahead on auxerre

with a have so if you want to see that rain train right there down into the southeast so similar story across in atlanta and then los angeles not bad on wednesday 28 degrees celsius we've had some fog that should certainly by thursday quite cloudy as you can see out across the great plains and then really as we had through thursday it'll be another warm day in new york but it should be a dry day with sunshine a high there of 29 degrees celsius fairly widespread schild and thunderstorms across much of the caribbean in fact becoming quite widespread really spreading right the way across the hispaniola and also pushing on even tools western areas of cuba so $32.00 celsius in havana a wednesday and that will likely come as some showers and thunderstorms probably definitely will see those on thursday that rain is a working its way further westwards and then on both days quite a bit of rain into southern mexico but it should stay mostly dry in mexico city 23 degrees celsius is your high and 32 in kingston.

democratic presidential candidates get their 2nd chance to show what they should be why they should be given the nomination to run against donald trump in the 2020 lection 2nd televised debates are due to get under way in detroit in just under half an hour. the personalities of more than 100000000 people has been stolen and they have targets a u.s. financial services firm up to one the breach is believed to be one of the largest in banking history all of those affected are in north america the f.b.i. has arrested an engineer after she allegedly boasted about the hack online the company's share price dropped almost 6 percent on the news really how it has to details from washington d.c. . the information that was made available was personal in nature individuals who had applied for credit cards between the years of 2005 and 2019 with capital one

bank it was addresses it was birthdays social security numbers or other government identifiers all put out on a public forum a code hacking forum that allowed for these individuals to have their information exposed now there has been one individual who has been charged and has appeared in seattle court awaiting another court appearance on thursday charged with fraud and abuse but the concern is that from a consumer standpoint that the bank did not immediately detect its vulnerability now it has assured consumers that no fraud was committed with their information as a result of this exposure but given that it's only been a few weeks since this hacking was detected many consumers not feeling completely confident about that now this is an increasing problem in the united states not only has capitol one been affected but in previous years we've seen banks like j.p. morgan chase bank of america citibank the average cost for a bank to deal with

a situation like this more than 8 $1000000.00 so it certainly has a financial interest but also in consumer satisfaction to try and rectify what seems to be an ongoing problem for banks in the united states and around the world runs in acrylics is the chief executive of cyber security firm rendition. and he says the hacker exploited a configuration vulnerability in the company's infrastructure. this is a configuration such as a security policy or maybe a security control or a authentication mechanism that is mis configured on their side says that the security researcher disclosed this on july 17th and then through an internal investigation they discovered it on july 19th it's very common when a security researcher discloses some sort of miss for miss configuration or security vulnerability that then you start digging around and you open that can of worms and very often you discover that this has been exploited before

a lot of organizations especially the size of capital one they have a mature security program they have a lot of logging but maybe they don't have all the security tools or everything tuned properly to detect some of these things rendition info sec recommends threat hunting it's not good enough just to have that defense you have to really search around kind of you know dust off the cobwebs check under the bed to make sure that your environment is clean from attackers it depends on what the attacker does with that information if they release that to a forum if other people get their hands on that then obviously people will start noticing things are audit and reporting that up but you know it just because there's no known fraudulent activity ad to date right now doesn't mean that we shouldn't count that out we work with banking institutions all over the world international and domestic in the u.s. it all comes down to it's that toehold it's that weak crack you can be doing 100 percent of things correct so you think but it might be 99.9 and that that small

percentage can lead an attacker into your network it does happen we recommend being proactive having security being evolving process you're always updating you're always trying to get better you're always trying to get more stealthy of what you're detecting and really it's it's a battlefield out there and you know you need to be prepared no matter the size your company. why weighs revenues up 23 percent for the 1st 6 months of the year indicating that u.s. sanctions aren't slowing the chinese tech giant yet always chairman though admits that sales have suffered and warns that it will create difficulties in the 2nd half of the year the company is at the center of a trade war between the world's 2 largest economies talks to address that dispute had resumed in shanghai and that's where wayne has been following those meetings. the fact these 2 trade delegations are meeting again face to face is of course being seen as a positive but getting any accurate official information out of either side about

what exactly might be taking place in shanghai has been difficult we understand though that there will be perhaps informal discussions over a meal followed by more formal negotiations on wednesday expectation is the low of any significant outcome in shanghai during the course of these talks because the 2 sides remain far apart on some of the key issues one of those issues surrounds the chinese phone manufacturer way which was in may place on the u.s. blank list preventing us companies doing business with it out of concern that it could be a threat to u.s. national security will since then president donald trump has backtracked a bit saying that some united states companies will be allowed to start doing business with weiwei but so far it seems that that process has not started and in fact it's just been words from the united states president well as the u.s. delegation arrived in shanghai weiwei and they answered it financial results for

the 1st half of this year showing that revenues increased 23 percent despite that blacklisting from the united states the longer term outlook not so good for a while away it expects that its revenue will take a hit in the longer term and it's already announced that it is. it's cutting some $600.00 jobs in the united states so it seems certain that the issue of weiwei will be discussed while these 2 sides meet in shanghai. and byron mentalists in indonesia are accusing the state's energy company of negligence over an oil spill off west java they say the leaks affecting not only marine life and tourism but also people's health alexia bryan explains. is worried about her daughter. she's brought her to a clinic run by the state energy company for chico. she

started coughing and has responded to the problems because of the smell of this oil she has been coughing for 2 days now they village is right on the water and carolan on west java water that's now tank with oil seeping from an offshore drill site the black slabs now straight is more than icy kilometers up this coastline affecting 11 villages. we understand the impact to the environment that's why we're working to clean it up as much as possible we also care about the health of the people around it we have 5 teams working in 5 villages we've checked the health of 500 people today. environmentalists say this energy company passion maina isn't doing enough and that people living here are being kept in the dock about the spill's potential long term impacts especially the fisherman who rely on the ocean for their livelihoods. i can't go fishing even if i want to i wouldn't catch anything

i would only get about $1.00 to $2.00 kilos well usually i get $5.00 to $6.00 kilos for what not even the cost of enough gasoline for the part some fishermen have joined the cleanup effort soaking. and scraping up the oil. with whatever tools they can muster. in the oil is getting thicker cleaned today but there's going to be more tomorrow it doesn't and it's really disturbing our life is disturbed we can't go fishing in the sea. the spill began almost 3 weeks ago in person manus says it could be the end of september before the leak is plugged at least one environmental group is threatening to take the company to court accusing it of negligence allegations person may not denies for now the contaminated beaches are off limits people here say they'll be back tomorrow and the day after until the oil is gone and next year brian al-jazeera. the mother of an alleged is
