they risked a wrist but there was safety in numbers they shouted if the 1000000 cries of stand with hong kong and left their mark as they went but it was inevitable that this day would develop like so many others have been hong kong recently the violence started when some people stopped at the offices of the government which adjoins hong kong's parliament this is a building that they stormed back on the 1st of july so clearly once they came to this building the police were in no mood to muck around no move to allow them to stay here and throw things at the building so that to get started fairly quickly. the protesters have developed a relatively new and dangerous tactic of throwing petrol bombs along with bricks and other objects on the other side police fired tear gas and deployed water cannons this time laced with dye to try to mock those who had broken the law eventually those demonstrating moved on but the fight wasn't over. the protesters have retreated from the area around the legislative council conflicts but not very

far coming to a place close to the headquarters of the hong kong police of bollocks this road this intersection here and sit fire to the barricade taking things to a new level directions were designed to send a clear message to the police and the government far from being afraid they are intensifying their campaign and in doing so the city's crisis is worsening wane hey al jazeera hong kong. while the mass protests in hong kong are now into their 13th weekend in june the city saw some of the not just ever with 1000000 say king to the streets the marches were the result of concern about plans for a new law that would allow the extradition of suspects to mainland china the movement grew in numbers and in boldness and on july the 1st protesters smash their way into the legislative council as the government refused to respond to demands protesters widened their targets paralyzing the city's airport for to do. as of

this month the developments have cause alarm in beijing chinese state media have hinted that military intervention warning that soldiers stationed in the city will not sit on their hands. speak to. who's the president of humanitarian china rice advocacy organization he was also a student leader during the 1989 tenement square massacre he joins us live from in the u.s. state of maine thank you so much for being with us we have seen some pretty dramatic scenes in hong kong this saturday with police storming the metro station. the police violence seemingly escalating what do you make of what's been happening in these path or team weeks do dizzee unrest that we've seen have any similarities to the town and men stood movement that you were part of 30 years ago. yeah it is very similar to the ending in many ways and. also.

i think it's similar in the way you know it over why we make policy by the general public meeting people on the streets it's happened in beijing many times and i think the komal also has that matter that the government often declared the movement as riots you know very very early to julian hong kong and. china. beijing. in april and they refuse to change the definition that means everyone who participates could be arrested photographed that's a central issue and what state for an i think is a crime hong kong is very important financial and china in the coming in the time that they need on call he. has a financial interest even though the ones who keeps the political control so to be

. compete on the national community leverage over coming to town i don't think the ought to them is. crack stock we will have seen. you don't you think i know would do the same thing in hong kong that they did that all in cannes meant square beijing. no i don't think that's likely to happen now. but this seems to be. a hardline who within the protesters who seem to think that without violence and all these all these demonstrations are useless are they right to think and or does more need to be done to discourage them. i think so far you know the so-called the violence very limited if you compare these movements to any other movements in the country you know you create a freak. in south korea you know least

a very very good i think the ads just you think they forgot wait they're just trying to show. you know who fights all the more i think the hong kong i think. i think that's why you hiding very strong. wheezing and also call back or what about the hong kong government strategy here carrying the chief executive has said 1st we must have peace then we have dialogue with the protestors what is the strategy thing going forward. trying to pirate these protests. and i think they are using the increasing violence tactic sample as a dad beating people indiscriminately. probably. felt that. there were right. it isn't trying to i was there was

a crime you chaps and the police need to sadly think he's just taking away people most likely to a bystander and that's were not the point to use the right just hire their. own people that's that's not going to work that's why we're. going back again and again trying to find a way to escalate. it will be interesting to see how the situation develops and how it all and thank you so much for speaking to us jill fang show president of humanitarian china and also a student leader during the 198910 men square thank you so much waistline. much more still ahead on this sound news hour an anxious wait turns to devastation in india as up to $2000000.00 and they could be made stateless class the race to save animals from fires burning through the bolivian amazon and lewis hamilton's

all ages young boys to teenage men to older men to come to training that's why we we have seen video where at least there is clearly one injured child in the video but that it was the issue with the scent of the all age groups that it was believed to be this training center for this al qaeda connected group and it's an indication really of the concern not just that turkey hasn't of the russians have but also that the americans have that in this last rebel held part of syria the northwestern part of syria there are these hard core groups resisting conducting a last stand. the leader of lebanon space armed group hezbollah says they have plenty of precision guided missiles for any confrontation with israel and hassan nasrallah has also warned they've already decided their response to an alleged is really drawn strike on their beirut stronghold israel hasn't claimed responsibility

for that but has moved extra forces to its northern command as tensions with lebanon escalate. the issue is in the field it is in the hands of the. you know what they have and how. a sudanese judge has formally charged deposed president omar bashir with corruption and illegally possessing foreign money speaking from inside a cage bashir admitted receiving millions of dollars from saudi arabia but added that he didn't personally benefit from the cash he morgan has a report from cottle. into 3rd session of his corruption trial ousted president obama gave his 1st statement today judge. and admitted receiving $25000000.00 from saudi arabia's crown prince but said the money from him had been sold mine was a personal gift and that none was spent personally but given as donations for the

judge denied his lawyers request for release on bail. the judge also formally indicted bashir of illicit financial gains and illegal possession of foreign currency his team of more than $120.00 defense lawyers pleaded not guilty on his behalf. but they listen to the prosecutors and now it's the turn of the fans now we have a chance to present all the evidence so the oldest charges are baseless that we prove that the charges of illicit financial gains against the former president. bashir was ousted by military leaders in early april after months of anti-government protests there were sparks by rises in the price of bread and the poor state of the economy days after his overthrow millions of dollars were allegedly found in bashir is home in its worst of fates most of the laws that backed the charges against the former president were drafted during his 30 years in rule and they were passed by the former head of parliament they brought him up by

her who is now head of the defense team the most recent laws were included in a state of emergency bashir declared in february when he banned anyone from possessing more than the equivalent of $3000.00. she was the only serving president to be indicted by the international criminal court for work crimes and genocide in the western region of darfur some and. see while there are reasons as to why bashir would receive money from foreign leaders the corruption charges are just a distraction from what he should really be prosecuted for whoever is. putting up this way they are trying to deflect the attention of the public from serious issues that my. bring those who are already in power to try and i mean what we know that the genocide has not being committed by i want to bashir himself there are many other this included in this scene for now prosecutors are painting a picture of a former president illegally receiving millions from a foreign government while his people suffered an economic crisis and dozens were

killed demanding his removal from power people morgan al-jazeera heartsome having initially rejected the offer of bolivia's president evo morales now says he's open to accepting international aid to help fix damage caused by fires in the amazon they've been burning out of control for weeks now doubling in size since say one and a half 1000000 hectares of force have been destroyed and the fire is heading south towards power why a lot america at its alysia newman has more from san ignacio in eastern bolivia we're in the main plaza now i'm standing now still which is known for the jesuit missions that founded it back in the 1900 but right now this has become the operations center for this region where the number of fires has more than doubled in the last week alone there are one or 1500000 hectares of bolivian forests that are now on fire the authorities are doing their best to try to bring aid to the

local communities and to the travel because of the cattle area but it's not just that we've seen that in other parts of further to the south it is not just the crops and the cattle that are suffering but especially the wildlife that is unprotected in this forest. a team of believe in veterinarians traveled to the reserve forest fires have been raging for weeks but their mission is to try to rescue wild animals which may have been injured. this was the scene the previous night the fire destroyed everything in its path. but if you animals were saved like this 2 day old wild pig whose mother died in the fire. the nature is extraordinary the way the allows these creatures to adapt in the face of danger and stress and find. enormous dildo with burnt eyes a hawk recovering from smoke inhalation along with

a boa constrictor they're all receiving treatment at the shelter. today the rescue is hope to find more survivors riding in a direction. which indicates sometimes when there's a fire and we can tell because of the large number of butterflies that are flying away. this area has already burned to the ground and there's no sign of life. pokes around a serpent hole if it's deep enough he says the snakes may have survived. if you can see this is apocalyptic there's nothing left these are part of the world's longs now it's nature that's disappearing next it will be. this is no sign of firefighters here as you can see the wind here is absolutely fierce and it's fanning the flames again in this direction the plan is to bring a super tanker helicopter here in the next couple of days to leave water for the animals that have survived but that helicopter is also needed to put out the fires

to save human life. the fire remains out of control a thick layer of smoke and ash fills the air making the sun look red. it's too dangerous to stay in the veterinarian star upset that they couldn't save a single animal i mean. i feel impotent because people aren't seeing how the amazon is burning how burning alive and no one is doing anything. while much of the world focuses on the fires raging in the brazilian amazon the devastation here in neighboring bolivia is receiving far less attention. even though assistance is desperately needed not just to put out the fires but to regenerate this fragile and diverse eco system so that what has survived will still be able to live here. all day long we have seen truckloads of soldiers going out into the fire area also

with some volunteers most of them between the ages of 16 and 22 they're not properly trained firemen they don't have the proper equipment either to protect their feet or to protect their lungs from the smoke and from and from smoke inhalation but they're doing their very very best to put out these fires which are spreading faster and faster because of the climatic conditions the very very strong winds extremely high temperatures and of course a prolonged drought. and then you still ahead forecasters suggest a massive hurricane heading towards the u.s. may steer away from a direct hit past huge numbers turn out in british cities denouncing the prime minister's decision to suspend potter meant weeks before bracks 8 and 2 of england's most famous team star away leads in the premier league on saturday he will be here with that story in sports just stay with us.

could be bring some very heavy rain across much of the area from mexico it is going to be already down here into guatemala also seeing some of that rain but for panama heavy rain for you at a temperature of 29 degrees and then very quickly across parts of argentina we're going to see a fun about to make its way towards the north for readers you know you're on the north side in the temps are there 26 degrees for you. al-jazeera explores prominent figures of the 20th century and how liable reigns influenced the course of history was the cuban revolution columnist always feel castro is a feudal east another coming mr castro into this country change it international revolution became a point when the relationship came to an end the icons of revolution who changed the course of latin american politics. and fidel castro face to face on al-jazeera . this is a really fabulous news from one of the best i've ever worked in there is

the attack and by evening the government said at least 35 days were killed along with 3 civilians a spokesman for afghanistan's president says it's the latest signal of the taliban don't want peace. the taliban's attack contradicts what it's saying and the attack shows that the taliban still isn't ready for peace they continue to fight. the rector of the center for peace and development studies and a former advisor to afghanistan's high peace council he believes the taliban's trying to show strength to get more out of the peace negotiations. taliban would like to give 2 important signals to the united state. my analysis shows the cut the negotiation for the time being it's not going very well for example the taliban usual would like to cancel the strategic partnership between afghanistan and the united states maybe the united states includes are the envoy who will accept that but with maybe with different conditions it's not happening for the

time being sickened in the south of afghanistan i think there's some terrorism or very number of. soldier are just raising their heads. would like to give a signal to the united states and also to other international community that they have to be crippling other terrorism that's raising from day to day also internally the taliban leadership would like to emphasize on the. boy that they have to be getting a bigger share in the in the negotiation with the with the insight in india nearly 2000000 people have been excluded from a citizens' register in the center of assam putting them at the risk of being declared stateless they have to prove they're not foreigners or face detention priyanka gupta every for some largest city who are hockey. an anxious saturday in the south people lined up since early morning to find out if their

there is self preparing for the worse especially vulnerable people like the elderly and gallagher as ari. now a category 4 storm with sustained winds in excess of 230 kilometers per hour hurricane dorian is edging closer to the u.s. the southeast coast in florida a state of emergency has been declared in dozens of counties as people board up their homes fuel their cars and brace themselves in case a hurricane makes landfall after 12 residents of a nursing home died from heat exhaustion during hurricane irma in 2017 the state's and acted strict guidelines for florida's many assisted living facilities are again dorian is being seen as a vital test for the new laws were hopeful that this generator will be a oaks c.e.o. katherine kastner installed a state of the art generator and says the care industry is much better prepared i think today given the. devastating loss of so many lives that

everybody is very pool show for that at all costs resident martin caden has lived through hurricanes before and tells us he feels safe as dorian lingers of the east coast moving is very secure. you know we're very close to the very. very likely. we lived through a lot of. stories for you to have continues to change residents of the bahamas are under a serious threat as they brace for impact on sunday the storm may not make a direct hit on florida but the governor is warning against complacency if it bombs further east that obviously is positive if it dumps just a little west then you're looking at really really significant impacts and so don't make any assumptions remain vigilant and be prepared the key phrase now is

a cone of uncertainty which places florida georgia and the carolinas in the potential path of hurricane dorian forecasters and residents are watching closely this remains a powerful storm with an unpredictable path and people are preparing for the worst and hoping that dorian skirts the east coast sparing millions from what's being described as a monster storm the states in the potential path of dorian have been hit many times before all remain vigilant all are prepared now it's a case of watching a slowly moving storm that seems to be only getting stronger as it tracks through the warm waters of the atlantic gallacher all the 0 miami florida. have been protests in cities all over the u.k. against prime minister boris johnson's decision to suspend parliament just weeks before bracks said they gathered under the slogan stop the coup accusing john snuffs trying to silence parliament in order to leave the e.u. without a deal the government denies this and says the suspension is nothing unusual and

was at the protests in london. ways large a noisy demonstration outside downing street is one of dozens across the u.k. old saw today and many more big fund over the next week gives you an idea of the strength of feeling after boris johnson said that he would try to suspend parliament for several weeks now this is all he meant is that it's a no will procedure to get ready for a queen. speech before laying out his legislative program the people here say it's a clear power grab trying to stop all of them from doing his job just by eating his breakfast policies and avoiding or no deal price it now some of the organizers here are affiliated to the opposition labor party and senior labor figures who said it's clear what boris johnson is really base what is insured by the mechanism that is used and the dates that he's chosen is that it is almost impossible almost

impossible to get legislation which would bind the government into asking for an extension but you ask why i don't trust and the reason i don't trust this is because just recently he lied about whether he wanted to probe parliament he said he didn't believe in such procedures and he lied about the $350000000000.00 pounds that would be coming to the n.h.s. as a result of leaving the complete nonsense accepted now that it was just a lie and this is a man who is a serial liar and we cannot trust our democracy to know the action is not just on the streets there are a number of legal challenges going on it england and scotland under northern ireland that due to wrap up next week and in parliament itself and things who are really worried about a no deal price set are trying to figure out their best tactics in the 1st instance they've agreed to try legislation to force the government perhaps to seek an extension to article 50 beyond the end of october but it still might come to

a vote of no confidence in the government a number of conservative politicians side will vote against their own government but it's unclear whether they do at the moment have the numbers and that's why so many people here are extremely angry about what the government's doing right now greece is transferring refugees from a silence to the mainland then who will speed up the deportation process for asylum seekers whose applications are rejected there's been a surge in the numbers of people trying to reach crispier techie and his files pressure on already overcrowded i encountered such as this one in the last boss. people still want to stick security a my activists watch spork on the islands have told me that the lot of them are from afghanistan but they're also syrians coming it's so suppose they really really feel scared that they don't consider turkey to be a safe country for them as women.
