the 850000 people in sana city who have not received food rations from devry f.p. for the last 2 months w f p s also beginning to roll out a smart car driven beneficiary management system that will register 9000000 people in areas of yemen controlled by the sun abased authorities these vital measures provide for the protection and privacy of the people of peace service and the independence of humanitarian operations north korea has fired 2 unidentified projectiles in the south korean military says the devices were fired into the sea of the north eastern coast last week the north korean leader kim jong un inspected several missile test launches he says the tests were a warning to the united states and south korea over their joint military drills earlier the u.s. president said he was see what he called a beautiful letter from kim and that he wasn't bothered by the recent missile launches of gordon chang is the author of nuclear showdown north korea takes on the world he thinks the u.s. needs to do more to put pressure on north korea. well the north is up to

a 1000000 in the present the united states you know just hours after the president boasted about that letter from kim kim fires off these missiles and you know on one level you can say well the president's not perturbed he's letting the north koreans just play this out but we've got to remember that this is the 1st stage of it as going toward a cycle the north koreans will continue up that stage and when they do it will be much more difficult in the later parts of the cycle to stop it and certainly much more dangerous so i think president trump needs to sort of changes policies and impose some costs on north korea for violating these u.n. security council resolutions on missile launches this sort of harks back to his predecessor president obama's policies of shooting patients you just ignore what the north koreans do and don't appear to be bothered by it but the problem is that north korea is continuing to produce fissile material and it's continuing to

improve its missiles so this is not a good story for the united states you know the north koreans are not making any concessions we're making all the concessions this is not good. lots more still to come here in al-jazeera including a russian rocket engine explosion causes a spike in radiation levels and sends people into a panic. there are other things that an emotional canadian citizen is freed after 8 months in jail in syria more and stay with us. how it welcomes other look at the international forecast what a fair amount of warmth the usual summer storms rumbling away across many parts of north america fair bit of wet weather even down towards the southwest
