today lives has been inconvenienced but things are mostly good and as you said this is a big contrast to what al jazeera and other international media outlets have been reporting the issue of people being restricted people many streets empty as well and we saw on friday prayers last week as well as on eat people weren't allowed to pray at the main mosque to go to smaller neighborhood mosques as well but the government is saying also the same chief secretary that government offices have now opened today and there's some staffing they hope to get full staff by monday schools will open next week and internet and more restrictions will be in place in some areas but they may open up land lines in the kashmir valley again though they were not 100 percent they have said they will take a wait and see approach on this but throughout this press conference and throughout this entire thing they haven't said if restrictions will be lifted or rather the house arrest will be lifted on political leaders particularly the 2 former chief ministers of the region and a civil servant turned politician who was detained at delhi airport and sent back

to srinagar is currently under house arrest. thanks very much ok let's talk now to osama bin jawad he's in pakistani administered kashmir for us the protests we understand of some a still ongoing but i guess people they're focusing in on what may or may not come out of this discussion at the u.n. security council how is that feeding into the real dangerous situation on the ground. we seem to have lost communications there with the sama difficult to maintain they will try and go back to a sama if we can before the end of this news out for you last more ground still to come on the news including these stories north korea rules the peace talks as it finds 2 missiles into the sea of japan. and emotions running high in the pacific islands as national leaders debate climate change also ahead.

in the sports news the new season gets underway in spain but the world's best player will be missing for the opening match we'll have the details on that story in about half and. israel's interior minister says the u.s. democratic congresswoman rashid to leave will be allowed to visit her grandmother in the occupied west bank on humanitarian grounds as long as she doesn't promote a boycott of israel earlier her entry into israel was banned along with another congresswoman on obama following a low being efforts by president trump john hendren reports from washington. president donald trump's feud with congressional democrats just crossed international boundaries with 2 democratic house members planning a trip to israel in the occupied west bank trump urged israel to ban them from

entry they are very anti jewish and they're very anti israel i think it's disgraceful that they can save said that they've become the face of the democratic party i can't imagine why israel would let them in a thursday morning tweet to that effect from trump is apparently all it took for israel to reverse its earlier position barring ill hand omar and rashida to lead from entering the country israel's prime minister cited their support of a boycott of israel and we are not willing to admit into israel those who call for the boy. of the state of israel and act to be legitimized the state of the jews trump successful effort to pressure israel is the latest salvo in his battle with the squad for democratic women of color in congress. omar fired back saying it is an affront that israeli prime minister netanyahu under pressure from president trump would deny entry to representatives of the u.s. government trumps muslim band is what israel is implementing this time against 2 duly elected members of congress there's a long standing tradition in u.s.

politics that however contentious things are at home u.s. presidents do not enlist allies abroad to target political opponents but trump has never been bound by conventional politics. the president has said the 4 members of the squad should go back to their countries even though 3 of them were born here in the u.s. that hasn't stopped crowds at his rallies from chanting send her back. the unprecedented ban on to members of the u.s. congress was widely condemned by democrats and republicans in congress alike by the palestine liberation organization this is. unacceptable and said that. american people even the pro israel american israel public affairs committee joined in saying in a statement that while the group disagrees with the congresswoman every member of congress should be able to visit an experience our democratic ally israel 1st hand

with both trump and netanyahu facing upcoming elections the temptation to team up against a common adversary was apparently too great to pass up john hendren al-jazeera washington well earlier we spoke with bill schneider political analyst and a professor at george mason he believes israel's decision might have backfired on mr trump. i believe the president was expecting hoping perhaps to split democrats on the on the issue of israel and over the support of these 2 democratic representatives who tried to make their trip to israel he thought the democrats would split because they are controversial figures in the democratic party but instead what he has done is unite the democratic party against him against president trump and enlisted a few republicans as well most republicans are keeping silent about this some like senator marco rubio of florida have openly criticized the president that is not the reaction he expected to get ok let's go back to one of our top stories so far here

on the al-jazeera news very specifically the ongoing crisis in and around the disputed territory of kashmir right slap bang in the middle between india and pakistan let's talk again to osama bin should be if he's in a suffer about in pakistani administered kashmir for us protests continuing in pakistan administered kashmir because of people expecting from the u.n. meeting a little later today. you know expectations are really high and people have been gathering here in love provide any other part of the brain in. the calling on the united nations and the members of the u.n. security council asked them so that they listen to the plight of the community that if the demand here that people have been. they think that the united nations to hear the plight of the on the other people have been telling us that they have not been able to go to their family members and you get the one that wrote that is

happening behind us right now people have been asking that they need some sort of guarantee from the international community that they want to know if their relatives are ok whether they're alive on what do they have enough to eat are their medical requirements are being met and they have been telling us as we speak to them throughout this week that they fear that india is holding about 12000000 muslims hostage against their will and if india wants to improve their economic situation by it needs to evolve. and lift that you spoke to diplomats here in fact the united nations the 1st time in 54 years listening to the flight it really is a little just this session in the diplomatic back but they don't expect that the united nations to go to government. to come up with some concrete steps in india or

. the roll back what it has done here and can we assume between now and the u.n. security council meeting i guess that imran khan the prime minister will stick to his guns metaphorically speaking of course you know because his line is he will keep on telling anyone and everyone who wants to hear the real story of what's going on inside kashmir whenever he can and that was almost a reaction to what mr moody was saying about well actually this is good news for kashmir begging the obvious question how can it be good news for kashmir. so you've seen the pakistani reaction completely reject in what india has done with article 5070 ad hoc on insisting that this was a bilateral issue as had been agreed on previously and india cannot say that this is the name of india and it can do what it forms in this disputed terror. that it is a disputed carefree according to the united nations security council resolution and

that's what we've heard from prime minister who came to light a package manager mr bush trying to can people because they've been demanding that what is. telling people about it is not enough people have gone on the speech to the extent of saying then why isn't pakistan is using its pressure on the line of control by and by the sending more troops to the line of control sending a message that it is serious there are protesters here today who are saying that monument has not even started its face steps that it had taken previously the president of pakistan and is that because you told us that war is not an option and pakistan is going to. try and get the conscience of the international community into a way company the plight of which we are being held against their will some of thanks very much. iran says it will send its super tanker wherever it wants to the vessel was released by the bush territory supreme court on an alleged promise from tehran that its cargo would not head for syria the seized

oil tanker the grace one. of the waters after being renamed to the adrian reflying under iran to iran says the $25.00 member crew will start their journey after preparations including refueling as it was correspondent andrew simmons has more for us live from gibraltar andrew inferi this vessel should have set sail several hours ago so do we know if there's a specific reason for the delay. the theory is the difficult work out there but basically getting this absolutely clear as far as the gibraltar supreme court is concerned she is free to go as you rightly pointed out she doesn't have grace one as a name anymore and if we could just look a little closer at this the panamanian flag is still flying that will be replaced we are thinking with the iranian flag you can see there the black paint has been

used to blank out. registration. you can see not a lot of activity however there are a lot of crew coming out sporadically rather frightened of our cameras we point. supertanker and we understand that the crewing is the issue because we were talking . to the law. and as is the way with these things is live television news we've lost that link as well he was bobbing around on a boat with a satellite with his crew clearly the just off the coast of japan right in the middle the heart of the story in the mediterranean here's his look back at the last 12 hours or so. the grace warner and co off gibraltar its panamanian registration changed yet the iranian flag still not in place it's thursday the start of the 43rd

and final day of its detention but a major legal twist on shore in the gibraltar supreme court had a judge seeming somewhat baffled and the crew on board wondering if they'd ever get away the attorney general's legal team had a plan to release the supertanker but only hours before that was supposed to happen the u.s. department of justice also for the detention to be extended instead the case was adjourned for 5 hours a lawyer for 3 of the crew including the captain couldn't see any reason for the detention to continue we've taken advice from 2 q. season london specialists on sanctions and a criminal specialist for what we could tell them their advice was that was no breach the sanction. as confusion spread from the courtroom grace was reminded on cut just as she has been since july the full 28 crew members on both 4 of them the captain and 3 offices were released on bail that possible $100.00 baht ahead of the

u.s. approach to the calls. made to the court was in session again this time the judge threw out the approach from the u.s. department of justice and granted the attorney general's request for grace one to leave gibraltar's waters the government's chief ministers says iran had given a cost on guarantee the grace warned would not deliver its 2100000 barrels of like crude oil to syria he hails the actions of gibraltar as a triumph maybe one of the missing sessile sanctions busts in history not just in the context of the serious sanctions set by the european union because we've deprive the assad regime of $140000000.00 at today's value of crude oil and what would you say if all. or the oil did end up in syria after all well there's a commitment in writing to say that it won't and it won't look good on these republic of iran it said something in writing and then does the opposite. and so

what iran had described as piracy and gibraltar along with the u.k. calls a major breach of e.u. sanctions on syria appears to be ending now as grace one prepares to leave gibraltar is waters or eyes are on the u.s. now to see what if anything can do to stop this iranian voyage. ok we've got comms back with our correspondent andrew simmons there just off the coast of japan and to do you think if the ship sails when the ship sails does that kind of take the heat out of this tense relationship with iran and i guess as well over ships and ships that are flagged under different nationalities in different countries around the world. it won't take the heat off not at all and thoughts gibraltar's concern of the u.k. may be but once she's in international waters the u.s. seem determined to pursue this issue based on the fact that they regard the

iranian revolutionary guards as terrorists and anyone associated with them putting the 2100000 barrels of oil on board this ship they want to pursue this because they say this is illegal they will pursue it as far as they can it would seem it's a political judgment as to how much they put the heat up in terms of action but technically gibraltar is still sort of considering the approach but it has to go through the attorney general's office go back to the supremes court the iranians need to get out of here as quickly as possible the logistics a complicated you'll see the name behind me now is now a race war they're painting that out that's all procedural again in terms of the registration of the ship and as far as any future action goes it's an open question as to what should happen the has been a report unconfirmed from the foreign ministry in tehran saying that they shouldn't

be told whether they go to syria or any other place they don't recognize the sanctions on syria made by the european union but you heard in that report that as far as the chief minister here it is concerned he is adamant that an assurance has been made diplomatically and diplomats are used to these sort of challenges being made by the iranian foreign ministry addressed to an internal audience rather than an international one it does seem that this stage of this process is complete whether or not that crisis escalates is an open question but more likely than not and many thanks. ok in just a moment we'll have your world weather with kevin and we'll also cover these stories could the capital of indonesia be about to be on the moon as the president appeals for support to basically ditch jakarta. tango it's coming home with sirens welcomes the best dunces from around the world.

welcome back you're watching al-jazeera this is the news hour my name's pursuit will be these are your top stories this hour the police and zimbabwe have beaten up demonstrators protesting against the high cost of living running battle start of the capital city harare after judges of the high court dismissed an opposition attempt to overturn a government on demonstrations. india's government says it will lift the curfew in indian administered kashmir in quote a few days promises to restore internet phone services are also being made after the territory were. 2 weeks ago the u.n. security council is due to discuss the crisis in a few hours. iran says it will send. the grace one

if. the supreme court. order. after receiving iranian assurances that it wouldn't continue. in breach of e.u. sanctions. north korea today rejecting further unification talks with the south saying the suggestion is foolish a government spokesman in pyongyang made the announcement before the latest ballistic missile tests the firing of 2 short range weapons into the sea of japan on friday is the 6th in the past month north korea says it's angered by the south's military drills with the u.s. which resumed last week the north describes south korea's president as impudent and says korean talks are over let's talk to young should wrong a research fellow at the university institute for north korean studies he joins us from. welcome back to the news so as far as north korea is concerned the true fault

for what we're seeing just in the past 24 hours is all down to the south koreans what's your reading of that. well it's a result of south korean government having been effected mediator between north korea and the you know this is specially when there was escalation of tension on the korean peninsula in 2017 when the us president on the interim openly. complete destruction of north korea and north korea retaliated with a harsher rhetorics. of its irony of south korea being a booster or mediator between north korea and the united states for it's a success there south korea is no longer near by north korea and the united states are the mediator because these countries are now engaged directly with each other for part of their negotiations with the 3 something meeting between him and tran. so mr kim pyongyang is doing exactly what it wants despite the fact that you know

donald trump says they've got a good relationship and mr trump received that course beautiful letter from the north korean leader last week right right so north korean leadership is attempted to fully exploited the gap between south korea and they you know it is they are especially trying to take full of the bands of president trump who describes the joint military exercises. as our war games or he openly express his opposition to the you know military drills as to expensive and reckless so i know that i was to have a direct contact with us a person who is similar to share the same kind of understanding of the security situation on the korean peninsula us while alienating south korea ok president moon saying we are at the most critical juncture that we've seen for a long time does that mean that the u.s.

donald trump should rephrase how they see the relationship even if they don't want . well it's up to the trumpet to mr sharon the president trying himself right i mean he has been pushing for the america forest foreign policy which has not been without cost which undermines the credibility of your secret commitment to you know our u.s. allies in europe and asia so it's up to the president from the say whether he wants to reset his foreign policy or ready continues to focus on saving money u.s. dollars for the united states ok we seem to have this triangular 3 way relationship you've got donald trump in the white house you got mr kim in pyongyang you know president putin in seoul out of those 3 men seems to me mr moon uses what you might call normal diplomatic political language given that does this mean the diplomatic

door is closed or not quite oh no no no i thought people might door is still open the deployment next door of that is closed by you know the great years of diplomatic door between the 2 koreas because north korea only wants to walk into the door poor the you know these dates so other focus has been how it took or it president donald trump of the united states who sense to be an outlier compared to previous u.s. of administrations to get the maximum benefits you know thank you very much. indonesia's capital jakarta could be moving from java to kalimantan on borneo after the president asked the parliament to accept a plan to create a new seat of government your daughter hasn't decided where the exact site for the new city could be nor when it would be built the idea of creating a new capital has been debated for decades in indonesia sea levels rise in jakarta

as one of the fastest sinking cities on the planet and it could be submerged by the year 2050. 2 tree. director for development of and housing and settlement areas of the ministry of national development planning of indonesia she joins us on skype from bund dawn in indonesia a tree juhi g.m.t. is this actually going to happen. or. if and also from the senate those 2 more topics. we are planning to move from. but. of course this needs. well i think by the moment the senate. or

at least supported by. it will. probably go from different. sports if you don't get the support of the whole country it's a long way away relatively speaking 30 years from now and one understands of course the issue with rising sea levels but we're talking here about borneo we're talking about what 750000 square kilometers it is the world's 3rd biggest island the environmental impact of moving not just the parliament but the capital city because that would then be tens of thousands of government workers would have to go there as well so the impact would be huge. well yes of course we have the arguments why do you need to be done we have. inequality between jobs and. we have an equality economy in. the number of lead in.

indonesia and also it's there but not in the least and things that need to move. i think its arguments very strong. government can feed instead the whole. parliament and more silly people will support us because. it. comes up in my bank yes we are so silly there might be some ugly thing the banks we calculate the answer how we going to get banks especially the. reality that as you say that our bernie least part of the hype. all together for the global so we are trying to build. in concept of green smart and sustainable so we trying to put forward as part of this so we trying to rebuild the concept of the real plan.

area and of the conservation area. ok. we'll take. real try to minimize that whenever a country's capital city is it generally happens as a consequence of some massive event i'm thinking about when the german capital went from being blown to being berlin of course that was always going to happen because of german unification after the fall of the berlin wall equally when the capital of me in ma was constructed from 0 in the jungles of me in ma that was sending out a message. an aggressively militaristic message i guess the critics of the 1000000 mom military might say what's the message that your country is sending out to the world here if indeed this does happen. well i'm sure as we also have seen so we're trying to move the copy film that's true of. the

jungle that's middle of the jungle but it's still applause in proximity to the. day across the sea things so we as i said i will be really nice that they do for us in the building but it's. this is the global community that we are trying to walk our. new development into. a new approach to indonesia. so. western but we're trying to. equalize gog a development in all regions in indonesia and we are we are pursuing the more there and. it's ok it's the mates it's ok thank you for your time treat jewry for g.m.t. in indonesia good to talk. back to the states mr trump has been holding his 9th

campaign rally of the year this time in new hampshire he narrowly lost the stage to hillary clinton in the election in 2016 and on the back of 2 recent national teams in el paso and dayton ohio the president blame gun violence on mental illness. we are working very hard to make sure we keep guns out of the hands of insane people and those who are mentally sick and shouldn't have guns. but people have to remember however that there is a mental illness problem that has to be dealt with. it's not the gun that posed the trigger it's not the person holding the gun. well the gun control debate in the us often polarized these people in rural and urban areas alike in small towns gun ownership is common whereas in big cities there are concerns about crime and my shootings the us also has

a patchwork of gun laws that varies widely from state to state rob reynolds has been to need a small tongue on the california arizona border. needles california sizzles in the mojave desert where summer temperatures top $49.00 degrees celsius and the meandering colorado river provides a little relief it's a conservative gun toting trope supporting town at the edge of liberal trump loathing california where new more restrictive state gun laws have recently gone into effect that's rankled local so much that the city council took the unusual step of declaring needles a gun sanctuary city we kind of want to get their attention with the sanctuary city . this shooting range is just across the river in arizona where gun laws are much more lenient californians who want to purchase ammunition

here are subject to expensive restrictions under california law gun shop owners say the rules don't make sense because if there's a will there's a way if they want to get it they well across the u.s. states that have tightened up their gun laws in response to crime and mass shootings find their efforts effectively neutralized by neighboring states with lax gun rules the teenager who killed 3 people at the gilroy california garlic festival in july used in a k 47 style semiautomatic weapon purchased legally in nevada he wasn't old enough to buy one in california the research is pretty clear that states would restrict.
