9:02 pm
a 2nd consecutive day without the hemi this joining us from inside the airports but what's the scene like now. well now the airport is actually nearly completely empty scene of hundreds and hundreds of protesters. now completely the opposite you have tens of them roaming around. some of them really big some of these leaflets on the floor trying to clear up some of the mess that happened during those clashes. in the evening you also have some of the workers to return counters truest here stranded at this point because there's no flight departing from here only the flies that were already in the air where allowed to land in the whole home or so we're talking about hundreds of flights that were canceled and it's still not clear when the
9:03 pm
airport will reopen again it will be back to normalcy but there were also hearing reports that a court has issued an injunction to remove the protesters from that airports is it clear when this might take place or how it might be enforced. what we know so far is that actually airport authorities had for that injunction had been granted now. don't have details about how that will happen as they said that at the moment right now. very few protesters left in the airport where they come back tomorrow or not it's still unclear we're seeing some chatter on social media of a conversation going on to come back to the airport and also to apologize to all these people who had been stranded here some for one or 2 or more days trying to catch a flight back home i spoke earlier to 2 french tourists where transiting through
9:04 pm
year and they were told that the earliest they could leave phone call would be on thursday now it's not clear whether the pro. testers will come back with that we've seen those large numbers because after say i landed here at 8 in the evening and whether it was this program which is the party departure holborn. arrival home was a carpet people all dressed in black sitting peacefully crying police brutality distributing leaflets to anyone who was trying to explain their point of view why they were here and why they were holding these protests at the airport they still haven't announced whether they were going to come back to more or not nor do we understand whether this injunction would mean that if the protesters tried to come back in those large numbers then we would see differences maybe the police trying to block them before they even reach a terminal this is something that we'll have to see just as it unfolds ok we will
9:05 pm
wait and see what are the hamid thank you for that update now the u.n. human rights office has urged the hong kong government to investigate whether police use weapons in ways that are bound by international law yes very concerned because the balance appears to be increasing. and. certainly segments of the population appear to be getting angry and this is one of the reasons why we call for prompt impartial independent investigations the office the hong kong authorities to act with restraint to ensure that the rights of those who are expressing their views peacefully are respected and protected. well china's mission to the un has rejected that statement saying the spokesperson for the un high commissioner for human rights made a wrongful statement on hong kong that contradicts the facts interferes in what is happening in hong kong which is china's domestic affairs and send the wrong signal
9:06 pm
to the violent criminal offenders the statement goes on to say this is not tolerable for any responsible government and will only be met with a firm hand in accordance with the law sauce while long as secretary-general of the demo sisto that the pro-democracy organization in hong kong he says the city's government isn't doing anything to address protesters demands other than expressing support for the police but its brutality does not get way out the can people might not be fully staffed or agree on what or the behavior years of protest or thought how home government officials just baby high off those riot police and do nothing and keep silent is the most difficult situation that we are facing we just hope people around the world to understand that i will cause still for you the action we have to give back to our own government is the type to stop police brutality when one of our young lady join the police has reached out in permanent blindness that's
9:07 pm
why this right might continue and we notice clash this happening bob how police concords fooled themselves and transform this international city to a police state it's really terrible is that of us give what will protested to make way to hong kong riot police moved just life threatening rexin just like she again all bullets fired on home activists has shot them as the things that we strongly were we ought to specially when police in a pot are loose just hold the guns and point to achieve whole point was the head of people what kind of an insurgency and cases might be generated by riot b police it strongly afraid and were always. the u.s. president donald trump has tweeted that he has received intelligence china is moving troops toward the border with hong kong he added everyone should be calm and safe and earlier we spoke to scott. just across the border from hong kong and mainland china here's what he said. sure engine here is the gateway from mainland
9:08 pm
china into hong kong territory behind me there's a railway station there's a bus station there's a way for pedestrians to make their way into hong kong territory now also what's been happening here into engine over the last couple days is quite interesting you know there was a state run media that put out video and stills of armored personnel carriers and paramilitary forces gathering here in the city actually the athletic field just outside central in now obviously this sends a message to those who are protesting in hong kong there's this big military force just across the border the central government says they are here for a large exercise it's going to be happening over the next couple days this is coupled with the strengthening of rhetoric also coming out of beijing calling what's happening in some of those protests terrorism and saying that they will crack down with an iron fist but when you talk to people here in mainland china about what's going on in hong kong they have a much different view than those in hong kong they say they're frustrated they're angry and they're also scared we actually talked to some people who are going on
9:09 pm
their way into hong kong from mainland china here one family was going to hong kong disneyland and they said they're frustrated because they're worried about the safety of their children so obviously a much different view of what's happening in hong kong here in mainland china that seems to victoria why she's a political science professor at the university or not who's also testified in congress regarding the 2014 umbrella movement she's joining us via skype from washington thanks very much for speaking to us on the al-jazeera news hour and as we're saying that the u.s. president has tweeted citing u.s. intelligence that china's government was moving troops now to the border it's not yet clear if these are new troops or movements that have already been reported by the media some time ago but why do you think china is doing this is a patience wearing thin. beijing actually has been sending messages you know really intensifying. strength in the rhetoric over the last few weeks 1st.
9:10 pm
protest rinds and then cover versions now also elements are terrorism definitely really trying to strengthen protestors and also paving the way for intervention that i've been saying and that the protesters in how come don't you think that the p.r. game would actually eventually roll that tanks into congress as well have been the intend them and that's not because they don't want to you know that they don't want to crackdown hong kong or jesus with strength but rather they have actually turned the companies into basically action might stick to mainland security forces just over the past something. rather than that big there were police officers stresses protesters they wanted to. try to you know start to rise in their rest of the people who need them. so what you're saying is that china china will not be trying to appease the protesters in any way trying to will be doing anything to calm the situation down it is actually very nice and calm the situation you can escalate
9:11 pm
over there frank you asked that the chief the 1st 2 are very easy the 1st one is that the feelings aren't suspended if the bill is already there and what carrier and the chief executive said then why not just for withdrawing and the other thing is with massive police abuses there is this massive call for an independent investigation into. the government's would agree to these 2 then actually the home protests were not even have escalated since the end of june and we're still waiting to see whether the protesters will in fact return to the airport again in the next 24 hours or so but what do you expect to happen. well now do we her parents the league of men's is seeking forth in terms of sort of justice to not go back the reason that protesters are in protest seems to be gathering at the last few days is the 1st the question becomes so it even people of many who want to say actually
9:12 pm
people have bone fractures they have brain injury brain breathing and the protests of think that's the police will get much more restraint at the airport at the same time protesters also want to send a message to the world so that's a way to get to the well but this is unfortunately so when you know whenever the police show up then you have more balance and how significant is it that the u.n. human rights commission commissioner also said that the u.n. is concerned about this legends police brutality this is very important because over the last few hours or so media really just one thing with all these messages that you went on strike people by several months already seem see g. 20 summit the end of june have been the killing to international support and no one ever heard and no wonder the the attention to them so the u.s. news and commission. report is very important so does and in terms of just me maybe
9:13 pm
compelling the police to expect it to be hard to treat all right we thank you very much for speaking to us on the al jazeera news hour from the u.s. president has decided to postpone tariffs on some chinese imports donald trump is delaying a 10 percent tariff icon products like laptops cell phones on video console's he says he reached the decision out of concern for the upcoming christmas shopping season let's go over to white house correspondent kelly halakhah joining us from washington to tell us more about what trump said about his decision. yeah the president talking to reporters he's also been tweeting about the ongoing trade war with the united states and china now as you point out big news here in the united states the fact that there has been a delay on some tariffs of chinese goods into the united states the reason being that busy december holiday shopping season and as you point out it's things like
9:14 pm
toys computers clothing and footwear things americans like to give as gifts and the fear is that with those escalation in tariffs that the cost would have been passed on to american consumers not a politically good move for the u.s. president so there's been a delay on that the president is still in spite of that expressing optimism about resolving this trade dispute with china he was speaking to reporters saying that he believes china still wants to make a deal in fact the u.s. and chinese trade representatives and officials have been talking and the president views the call so far has been very positive.
9:15 pm
now financial markets have reacted positively to the news of the delay in tariffs on certain goods but in the midst of all of this well the president was virtually expressing optimism on twitter he expressed some frustrations and you heard him talking there a little bit about it agricultural products china saying that it would buy agricultural products after putting a hold on some of the things that americans count on making money selling to china pork soybeans already we've seen 2 aid packages for u.s. farmers as a result of this trade war but tension a a 3rd in the works in the what we're dealing with now is where this goes from here the united states still has concerns about intellectual property theft backdoor espionage and some of the products made in china that come to the united states and that seems to be the sticking point so the talks still continue we know
9:16 pm
in september here in washington but there's also this feeling that the united states may have given some grounded in essence blinked if you will in this ongoing trade tit for tat given the fact that they've now dial back on these tariffs and the president openly expressing frustration certainly seems to have shifted the power giving china a bit of an upper hand so it can really thank you. scientists say there are a step closer to finding the 1st effective treatment for the ebola virus a successful clinical trial is giving hope to patients in the democratic republic of congo where the latest outbreak has already killed 200 people so. the 2nd largest abode outbreak in the world has killed nearly 2000 people in the democratic republic of congo in just a year now 2 out of 4 new abode vaccinations being tested are proving so effective they're being given to all patients in d.r.
9:17 pm
c on tuesday 2 people were given the all clear and released from a treatment center in goma officials with the world health organization which has been coordinating the trials hopes this will stem the spread of the disease but the timing of the treatment is vital those who received treatment early so within the 1st 3 days. the mortality rate with general on. may be was around 10 percent comparison to those patients who got treatment late mortality rate for those due to drugs are 60 or respectively 66 percent so should the friends whether you receive treatment in the 1st 3 days or late the vaccinations work by attacking the bone a virus with antibodies and neutralizing its impact on human cells they were developed using cells harvested from ebola survivors ebola has killed at least 13000 people since 2013 the scientists say they're getting close to turning it into

9:19 pm
few days military sources have told al-jazeera u.a.e. reinforcements were seen supporting southern separatists fighting the saudi led coalition in the port city of aden separatist fighters have taken control of the city after launching a major offensive at the weekend mohammad lots more from sanaa. according to the reports that the saudis have already invited military senior military officers. who are supporting the international governments to perform. polygamous and saudi arabia also even though the. soldiers are officers on the ground have a day given the saudi arabia called in as for forward the militants who are loyal to the transitional council who are called or described as separatists but the saudi arabia hasn't worked accordingly and haven't targeted such code in it's also
9:20 pm
the officers on the ground who have described there. you have blamed the saudi arabia for the failure and also for what he described as a close against the internationally recognized government. they also have mentioned that the the there were also only advancements that have taken place before the start of the co that the over $400.00 military vehicles have been deployed. a surprise way so the situation as you have described as it was preplanned russia says it's winning a nuclear arms race despite a mysterious rocket test accident in the north of the country which caused a spike in radiation levels on this let's cross live to lawrence taylor european new center. thanks arrhenius the kremlin has pledged to keep developing new weapons regardless of nuclear incident last week russian doctors who treated people
9:21 pm
affected have since been taken to moscow for medical examination the blast happened on thursday at an offshore naval testing base in northeast to st petersburg and these 5 people died no official explanation has been given as to why the explosion caused a radiation spike of up to 16 times the normal level the facility is a test site for ballistic missiles used by nuclear submarines steadfast and has more from moscow. only 5 days after this mysterious explosion in the north of russia in the area of a congleton we now know that the weather agency has measured radiation levels up to 16 times higher than normal in the city of suffered since where exactly this testing nearby took place the highest measurement was actually at a kindergarten so of course there's a lot of suspicion and also conspiracy theories going on here in russia about what exactly has happened the government has been very tight lipped the only thing that
9:22 pm
we heard from the vice presidential spokesman was that people should just trust the information that's been conveyed to them by the russian authorities and also about these radiation levels he said that all the state agencies are working to make sure that the people are safe but of course a lot of people still remember what happened in chernobyl in 1986 that was of course a different scale of radiation there but also then there was an information blackout and that's exactly where people are really worried about the suspicion of course increased because the stories by the government has changed in the last 5 days initially the ministry of defense said there was no radiation then suddenly the local authorities admitted there was a short but quite high spike of radiation and then the the levels went back to normal initially there were 2 victims certainly there were $75.00 scientists died at the site and then only on sunday the authorities sort of confirmed that there was a small nuclear powered engine that exploded there's also
9:23 pm
a lot of speculation about what exactly was being tested there and the american observers have said that this is the this guy fold a new missile that the lighting up put in the boasted about last year saying that this could reach every corner of the planet because it is nuclear powered. u.s. president donald trump has weighed in on the russians didn't they sting of american superiority in the field and the show has more from washington d.c. no official reaction from the state department or the defense department here in washington what we do have is a tweet from donald trump of course it's $21000.00 in the united states that's the only statement we've got from the u.s. government he put out the united states is lending much from the field missile explosion in russia we have similar the more advanced technology the russians skyfall explosion has people what he did but the air around the facility and far beyond not good no there are those who are critical of what the president put out
9:24 pm
saying that this gives the russians a heads up on what the united states is working on if indeed that is the case there's always some don't when it comes to donald trump's tweets but if they are working on that then i'm sure it wouldn't be much of a surprise to the russians experts who've looked at the explosion say what they believe the russians were working on was a missile that could be fired anywhere in the world because it is powered by a small nuclear reactor and we know that the problem when it comes to dealing with nuclear reactors is miniaturise nation making them small enough to do the job that is required the americans actually looked at this technology in the fifty's and sixty's and had a number of failures and so it tended to forget all about at that point though what is interesting is the timing of this it comes just a week or so after the united states pulled out of a nuclear treaty with russia and that led many to say there's a real possibility of a new nuclear arms race but this weapon wouldn't be covered by that reagan era
9:25 pm
treaty that's because this is according to the experts a conventional weapon the difference of course is that it's being powered by a nuclear reactor a very small nuclear reactor and that they believe is what caused the explosion. what are ok melissa executive director of the arms control association he joins us live from washington d.c. thanks for being with us so it's taken several details several days for details to emerge and even then the accounts are being contradictory what's your interpretation of what's actually happened well it looks as though we have a serious accident involving a nuclear propulsion system for this missile that vladimir putin has boasted about a nuclear powered nuclear armed cruise missile so this is a very reckless and dangerous program mainly because this is a nuclear propulsion system unshielded spewing radiation into the atmosphere and as we've just seen the possibility of severe accidents that can kill the technicians
9:26 pm
and can. expose nearby populations to well levels of radiation so there's an irresponsible approach by russia and yes it is a sign that the u.s. and russia or on the cost of a full blown arms race with the breakdown of some key nuclear arms control agreements so i mean on that point i mean we we saw then the report trumps tweets and he went he went on to say that they have similar though more advanced technology and the fact that the kremlin said that in fact they are out in front with that with new weapons i mean is it a war of words at this stage or do you think it genuinely is an arms race. well nobody wins or is ahead in a nuclear arms race the united states and russia have some 1500 nuclear warheads that can be delivered in some 20 minutes by either presidents on their launch order
9:27 pm
these weapons can reach anywhere in the world so russia developing a nuclear powered cruise missile is dangerous it's redundant it's excessive and no matter what donald trump may think even the united states his administration is not stupid enough to be blunt to try to develop a nuclear powered propulsion system for our nuclear armed missiles when you say just taking this bit of misinformation from what it is interpretation of what this actually is and the latest we we had was from a u.s. senior administration official saying that it was as the u.s. believes it was associated with russian hypersonic cruise missile program it would that be more accurate. well that would be news to me but i think all of the signs so far are that this is related to a nuclear propulsion system we know that vladimir putin has announced that russia is trying to develop such a system this would be for the delivery of
9:28 pm
a nuclear warhead it would not be a hypersonic weapon system but more information may come out in the in the coming days about the exact nature of the experiments that russia is involved in thank you very much indeed to fit in the time to. time thank you. let me tell you the senate is set to debate a motion of no confidence in its government next tuesday a far right leave party a deputy prime minister said to me and asked last week it would file the motion in a bid to trigger early elections which he expects to win last week pulled the plug on his ring coalition alliance for the 5 star movement. on 500 migrants remain stranded in the mediterranean sea after being rescued by 2 aid boats the ocean viking ship run by doctors without borders picked up more than 300 migrants on sunday and monday and the spanish open arms vessel has been at sea for 12 days
