because we couldn't to verify that it in the identities of the journalists or on the others but so we can confirm according to the who the spokesperson that the. fighters were captured from. fighting alongside the saudi arabia united arab emirates but so far this incident have been condemned by all yemenis even though the. those 2 are going to the east have also even condemned such a. enemies and also. prisoners of 4 should be protected by all parties and this war so we're seeing criticism basically mohamed for both the saudis and these because they have been criticized for high missing prisoners in areas like this but also it's been

repeatedly asked for shelling and bombing not to happen in residential areas and yet here we are again. yes. many human rights activists also the united nations one calls on all parties to to avoid targeting areas where densely populated areas. will cater to but so far from one sign to another of your goodness but the civilians continue to bear the brunt of this will continue to also have a fact daily life did alone here the strikes that continue to claim this as many hope that the international community particularly the united nations would do serious something serious about ending these airstrikes. civilian casualties but so far with this. with this attack this seems that something with

a clear repeated $1.00 and $1.00 or one time and again. we will see that these. violence around the globe should could be ended very soon in yemen mohammed all of them joining me there mohamed sankey. still ahead here on al-jazeera the far right with sergeant so happy latest election results from germany china hits back at the u.s. with billions of top dollars in terrorist any sharp escalation of their trade for. hello again and welcome back we're here across the levant we're going to be seeing some rain coming in from the east a lot of heavy rain showers have been a problem over here towards india and now the coming over towards pakistan as well so for crotchety we do expect to see rain here on monday with $32.00 degrees but

you are watching al-jazeera remind of our top stories this hour the red cross says more than 100 people have been killed by his side led coalition air strike again at the strike hit a prison in the city of. this really army says the exchange of fire with hezbollah is over for now after both sides fired missiles on the israel lebanon border and israel has confirmed hezbollah hits an army base with antitank missiles as buses its fighters destroyed and is trading. in while prime minister benjamin netanyahu has said that israel has not yet decided on what action to take next he says the israeli army felt fired a 100 shells some haven't. a far right party in germany has surged in support in 2 state elections in the country's east that's according to exit polls he also has had for germany or if he has won 27.5 percent of the vote in saxony that's just the time to answer i'm glad oracles christian democrats party in brandenburg the anti immigrant e.s.d.

124.5 percent of the vote so mccain joins us now from brandenburg in germany hi there dominic just what is at stake in these significant elections. to the point to make here there are 2 things to take from the results as we have them so far must be said of course that their exit polls we've had so far rather than actual results but generally speaking the exit polls in german elections tend to be proven right more often than they prove they're proven wrong what we can take from it 2 things one as you said in the introduction there the surge in support for the alternative for germany let's be clear in 2 heartland states for the 2 mainstream parties brandenburg has always had a social democratic government since the fall of the berlin wall saxony has always had a christian democratic government since the fall of the berlin wall and yet in both states the a.f.d. has run them very close they're the surging in support beyond one in 4 voters who

turned out on sunday voting for the f.t. with them with a manifesto a message which was very tough on immigration and also where they said look the this is the 30th anniversary of what the germans called the vendor of the change where the berlin wall fell when communism was kicked out as it were by democracy came in where capital ism came in the air to saying that's not it's not finished you need we need more things to happen and i want to be is that one in 4 voters have voted for the f.t. and then they corroborated out there the flip side as it were to that point is the fall in support for the. mainstream parties it's be clear the christian democrats in saxony lost 80000 more than 8000 voters who went directly to the f d also here in brandenburg governed by the s.p.d. the social democrats for so long they only just beat the f.t.

this is a state that has had a left wing government for 10 years the social democrats and the former communist left party have governed this state for 10 years and yet the far right movement which emphasizes the need to cut down on immigration to take a very hard line on asylum seekers and refugees well that party now being supported by around one in 4 of all voters don't think they're joining us from banda by dominic. protesters in hong kong have again targeted the city's airport disrupting travelers the demonstrations came a day after some of the worst violence the city has seen as protests started there nearly 3 months ago wayne hale has the story. this isn't the welcome people expect when arriving to check in at hong kong airport i for the 2nd time in 3 weeks and he government protesters tried to block access to one of the busiest terminals in the world in some areas they succeeded confusing and worrying travelers and you cannot

go back to the place where you wanted to go. and people are afraid because of what's happening here i called orders in place designed to prevent protesters coming anywhere near here that clearly didn't i that legal action was taken after their last raid on the airport which saw people camp inside the terminal for several days. or they. thought is very important to the economy we chose here to try to paralyze it a make a point instead of randomly picking a street talk e.p.i. it's most better to come here with all or i this time the sight of the police moving in was enough to force a retreat for most of. those not quick enough were arrested it was in the end the protest to stay at the airport was a relatively brief one but again they proved they can strike at what they say is

a soft target before the police moved in to retake the air. still it would be a long time before transport began to return to normal meaning long walks for many travelers the demonstrators may have moved on but they weren't done seemingly frustrated by the closure of a nearby train station they vented their anger leaving it in disarray. as night falls the protest is fanned out to different locations and the police don't seem to be able to match the agility of those duck trying to chase. and when it's time for a police retreat loitering protesters in many people living in areas with some of the violence has taken place find their voices again as the officers leave they're not cheered as keepers of the peace instead jeered as the enemy and symbols of a system many here are trying to change when hey al jazeera hong kong. another round of u.s. tariffs on chinese goods went into effect just

a few hours ago china has in turn raised import taxes on $75000000000.00 worth of american goods that interview has more now from beijing. shoppers come to beijing sun un lee market to buy all kinds of imported food including american grown cherries but it's fast becoming a casualty of china's trade with the u.s. tariffs have already gone up twice pushing the price of a killer to around $25.00 and from to temper the 1st tariffs on us cherries will be raised from 50 to 60 percent vendors are looking for cheaper alternatives to what the chinese fruits are very good the price is much cheaper than american products the quality is also very good so more and more people are choosing local fruits higher prices are the only reason shoppers are considering buying less from the us . for me being pretty out it is something more important for me to consider than the price we are trainees and we are all affected that by the time the us treats

war cherries may be the most popular american product at this market but it's not the only for it that will receive higher tariffs new judges will also apply to things like american palms graves and apples $75000000000.00 worth of u.s. goods with the tariffs of between 5 and 10 percent china also reinstate import taxes of 25 percent in u.s. cars in december. the hikes are the chinese government's response to the trumpet ministrations voters trade website over 10 percent tariffs on $300000000000.00 worth of chinese goods also coming into effect in september and december analysts say the u.s. president has been a confusing and unreliable negotiating partner i don't think the president trumps remarks serious recording his stories change here are some very the stick figure they're not out to push through let's talk there you must give you. a much bigger stick china's comus ministry says it doesn't want to escalate tensions and is open

to talks with the u.s. but it's word against underestimating china's willingness to dig its heels in for the long fight if you fight back if your talk good let's talk but we have principles we will never yield our principles by weakening its currency and developing new trade partnerships china is taking steps to ensure its economy is less vulnerable to any new moves by truck in the trade war and as demand for things like us cherries slower china's finding cheaper alternatives from countries such as pakistan and chile are ripe for the picking katrina you al-jazeera beijing hurricane dorian is developing into one of the strongest storms ever to hit the bahamas a category 5 hurricane is expected to batter the islands 2 days of torrential rain and damaging winds the u.s. state of florida some of the most vulnerable people are bracing for the worst and the gallagher has more now from miami. now

you. hello everyone i'm hasn't seek a welcome to the program imagine living in a country or your life and then being told you're not a citizen that that's what nearly 2000000 people are suddenly facing today in india they've been excluded from a list of citizens in the northeastern state of last am in a process the government says will weed out the illegal immigrants critics say it is an attempt to deport millions of muslims who make up a 3rd of the state's population those excluded now have 4 months to prove they're not foreigners or face detention the national register of citizens was 1st created in 1951 to determine who came to the state before neighboring bangladesh declared independence from pakistan we'll be speaking to our guests in a moment but 1st priyanka gupta reports from assam's largest city guwahati.

an anxious saturday in a south people lined up since early morning to find out if their names are on the state's final list of citizens 47 year old me general rahm on a farm would probably village is on the list but his wife and 3 children are. very worried i feel bad in my heart i am very sad. this elderly couple that go hearty also trying to understand what went wrong 71 year old son was born in assam and has lived here all his life his entire family is on the list except him and his 2 daughters i wanted you to know the 3 who are on the list submitted the same document my daughter and i submitted that as well so how can we be excluded those excluded from assam's final register of citizens will have to appeal and foreigners tribunals like these with 120 days wide scopes including

amnesty international are calling for transparency as i have been several reports suggesting that some proceedings have been biased and discriminatory as we were the group that spearheaded the protest movement against foreigners the all the sub students' union says the list should belong to business where it is not new to be already declared triggered by the government to be going to us and we expected more . that's our feeling so we're not happy. so you feel that there may be some in or in the process. and the answer is not complete so for remedial misery we liberals to be honorable to be good again. and the hindu nationalist b.g.p. the ruling party in both uteri and some states says it's alarmed it says it will appeal to india's high scored to revivify the documents of indians living in muslim dominated puerto districts the b.g.p. try to pass a law earlier this year to douse citizenship rights to persecuted minority is from

neighboring countries muslims were left out the proposal provoked protests by coops that illegal immigrants to the media. as the arguments that would now because of religion grow a protracted legal battle faces nearly 2000000 people a defeat as indians cook the out 0 quality. or let's bring in our panel now joining us from asked sam via skype. pressure on the deputy editor of the wire from new delhi desh nigam a member of the rushed area so i am 70 sang the ideological parent body of the ruling b j p and from london ron and lee visiting scholar at queen mary university of london's international state crime initiative welcome all of you to the program . if i could start with you there and just give us

a sense of the challenges the people there are dealing with because i know you've you've spoken to many of them and what sort of recourse do they have to address this issue that they're facing of not being on the list. ok i need today i was like in a village earlier not very far from the capital of assam go ahead of us about 50 kilometers have been some villages and i met so many people who are out of this this and there are most of them are poor people and not much educated or not you know financially all right and also there is not available information as to what next you know what awaits them so there is certainly a feel there is lot of confusion among peoples in people's mind and.

you know many of them see you normally they just one thing is that some members of their family are in the list some are not so this is actually creating a lot of confusion among people and i feel mostly the women you know but equally among the muslim community the most of the women are the worst sufferers because the have not been able to establish any link with their parents so that is actually causing a lot of trouble on the ground a lot of confusion and they have they were told to give some 13 people as of the local bodies but mean many cases the peoples have not been accepted but in some cases they are so there's so much confusion about you know there's no uniformity to the sea on the ground so what i would see at this point is that the structural problems are actually a lot and that is causing a lot of harassment a lot of confusion among people. the state government for their part are saying

that the this whole process is being very meticulously carried out in a transparent manner they say and every opportunity is going to be given to people who are not currently on the list. to to prove that they are there they belong there and that there will be a due process at every stage how does that square with what you're saying oh yes i understand i've seen all of that but that has come quite late because the already these issues are there in the media you know reports and we see that so just come march a towards the end you know but already some nice wee sites of happened still you know this is very much there staring at your face but the other thing is also you know now what so many of them will have to pull through the finance tribunals for the entire mechanics and that is then put in place and they will have to show the

same papers that they have so they're all wondering what what what more will they be able to provide and so that is one pig and the other thing is also that the supreme court's recent. the odds are that after 3 years they'll be taken out of the detention camps so they're wondering where if you feel the test and the tribunals will you be put in the detention camps then after 3 years you come out is that a mic and isn't that has been put in place the government does not spelled it out clearly about that and the other thing is that once you come out are you a citizen or non-citizen or how on what basis will you be kept so do all those things are very much there and ice can see that on the ground royally what in your view is is the purpose of this register since the purpose of the. well well the purpose it serves is effectively to create statelessness it's

important i think to understand the context that this registration process occurs in it occurs in a context where the recent indian general election was fought and won by the nationalist prime minister modi on a watchman security based nationalist platform in recent times this been the annexation of kashmir and now in assam we're seeing a group of residents primarily muslims being targeted by by this registration process i mean this this appears on many levels to be designed to create statelessness to change the demographics of assam and to unfairly exclude non hindu religious and ethnic religious minorities and what do you say we run into those in india who argue that this is

a perfectly normal process that goes on in many countries throughout the world that you have to be able to prove that your a citizen and people are being given ample opportunity to do that well again context is important if if there was a genuine attempt to confirm who is who is a citizen of india and who is not then perhaps the place that you would begin that process wouldn't be a psalm and you'd begin the process by outlining to the people who have been required to participate in it that it's not targeting the muslim population that muslims will be treated fairly and you would reaffirm india's secular founding principles as a country that's multi religious and multi-ethnic that has in the what's occurred associated with the registration process in. assam has been a lot of noise from hindu nationalists have already expressed the view the finance

minister understand today of a samas already expressed the view that he is unhappy with the outcome that there are not enough people who have been excluded from the muslim population and he expects that those hindus that have been listed on the the list as not not legitimate citizens of india that they will be given some solace through government processes soon i don't think there's anyone that would believe sincerely that this is not a process that is designed to change demographics and to target the muslim population in assam. what's what's your take on this what do you you've heard the criticism that's been made of this and how do you tell someone who was born and raised in india lived their whole life and in many cases their parents their grandparents came from india to suddenly be told that they're not indian at all. see you have to see case by case basis to every country has

a right to maintain their record of their own citizens and they also know that there's a huge amount of illegal immigration that was taking place from bangladesh both in those and muslims so as rightly pointed out by the london guess is they're both hindus and muslims have been left out so it negates the fact that it was directed against one particular community we also know that from a past experiences that huge amount of illegal immigrants out there and assam is one dejan and this being all is another from where they moved to other areas of the country so it is absolutely legitimate for india to have its own record of citizens and they have started from a semenya to be an all in b. exercise in future the last one was done in 1951 so it is high time that the must know who are who are citizens of this country and who are the illegal immigrants yes we have a robust system that the entire exercise is very transparent it is being monitored by the chief justice of india and there is a due process for. some of the grievance so you can go to the far less tribunals

then you have the high court then you the supreme court and therefore nobody can complain that they do not have the grievance mccann ism any country democratic democratic country should have to address a mechanism which is also in place in india so i don't know why this kind of a criticism of biased criticism which is being done. against us over in democratic country who has its own rights busy busy going to bill and of the constitution of india what do you say yes to those who argue that the burden of proof on the this and r.c. is so so strange and so. partisan an arbitrary in many cases that the entire exercise seems to them geared to exclude people rather than any any genuine effort to sort of create a roster of indian citizens and there are many examples of this weapon. a father was branded a foreigner in the draft and r.c.

but his son was declared in india and in another case a 6 year old girl passed the citizen ship test but her twin brother was found to be a foreigner there's numerous other cases of spelling errors. typo in your grandfather's documents could mean you lose lose your citizenship none of this seems fair does it. so let us be very clear in the 1st draft mr come out the 4000000 people were left out not the final list only 1900000 people have been left out and and the cut off date history and the 5th of march of the 1971 so anybody who's come before is allowed and anybody who comes after that busy is not allowed and therefore they have been very carefully to stance better to yes there could be mistakes here and there but do you have address a mechanism in place like in any other country you can question india's motives anybody who's questioning india's motives here has a lot of explaining to do because the it is that right india has

a right to maintain its own register of citizens how can you criticize india's right to maintain its own register of citizens when and the world has this even the us is trying to limit the illegal immigration and we have you know scarce natural cygnus sources and we have a huge population of 1370000000 people so one has to balance and india has always been a very calming host country but not that that you know generosity was being misused by the people from across the border and they were coming in holds and that has changed the way you know demo clear feeling good stick social and cultural identity of many districts in the region where the indigenous culture district and now all of you also know that there are problems that many many people who are who are not supposed to be year have been including their $4030.00 thickish and then the identification and thing will be a continuous process it is not an end all of busy a situation so law is dynamic here it is continuous

a tomato somebody if it is found that somebody has used flawed human documents forged documents to get the citizenship here then that person will be taken to task and the legal process will start against a person so i do to give both describe a motive to this exercise i think it's too far a stretch to. sankey to your response to that people should not be questioning the motives behind this. see the it's a very old problem you know from the british colonial dime and then a lot of smaller communities which reside not just in assam but in the rest of the northeast also of the smaller benito in some communities they'll be only a 1000 people so 50 people you know this see coming to it's an issue so those things are very much there on the ground and the other issue what i see when i roam around the ground the people from all communities have been affected by this but considerably i see the muslim community getting affected a lot more but yesterday you know since yesterday they've been getting so many

calls messages that saying that people from all communities including the s m e's and the indigenous communities also so that sort of that again takes us to the question of the structural problems which you also spoke about so that this is something that needs to be taken seriously and the other thing is also. about you know given that confidence to people you know i believe that this is not the end of the door not not finding one's name in the list itself doesn't meet one status you have to go to the entire process but but still you know you are thinking about you have to think about a small oh poor people we really get so much money to fight these cases there's been so many litigations now and even if to go to a tribe mentally need at least 25000 indian rupees and these are very very poor people even to go you know last month from one part of the state to another party

not for revenge if occasion of their documents many of them had to sell their cattle they have to put their land on morgridge too so that they could hire a bigger vehicle and dick and that family there so this is the situation we are talking about so it does a lot of human duchesse required at this moment yeah let's put some of that back to the desk then the criticism there that much of this discriminates against poor dears they don't have the means to you know to go to the various offices to pay for transport to get all the to get all of the documents and so on what do you say to that. see the fact remains it just started yesterday so it's just too early to comment on the process because this process is slowly slowly take off the ground the farm mistry bills are being increased the state government has also promised legal aid to the people whose name has been left out and they will help them in due process of time and one can understand but but it is the duty of the nation to

prepare their record busy of citizens and their for it is an exercise which had to be taken although it is taken late but it should have been done by the previous governments long time back but the fact remains state governments are doing busy providing legally other things also in the process and that is a due process available to them and service centers you know what we called c walk ins are being open to help them so i don't think it is just yesterday it started and nobody you know. should be you know it does not that 10 days at boston nothing is happening so slowly slowly people will approach the service centers they will go to legal aid centers there are really facilities these wait at patients running lee up to now we mostly been talking about how this. process is taking place in the state of asom but the government has made it clear that they want to expand this nationally if that want to happen what what are your fears about this. well my

fears is that my fear is that we will see a replication of what's happened in other parts of the region just nearby in me and not. an oppressed muslim minority the key element that began their oppression in myanmar was an aggressive citizenship verification process during the $970.00 s. and from that time on their rights were increasingly restricted and then some decades later they were forcibly deported from from me and ma and there's now some 1000000. resident in refugee camps in bangladesh but there's also risk in camps within me and not and then not allowed to leave concerning lee prime minister modi visited me and at the time that the forced migration was taking place during 2017 and he was supportive of the government of me and mas approach so in

that context it must be chilly when people in the somme who found themselves not on the citizenship register noice that there have been detention camps built in assam and that the government intends to build 10 more detention camps within some those people not on the n.r.c. today must be deeply concerned that the future they face could well be some something very similar to the to the face of the wrecking. you mention there how you know everything every country has has the right and the need to to get a register of all of its citizens to update this and so on. but i want to ask you about the context in which this is happening a little bit more in and the timing this is being carried out by a government and a ruling party that has its roots in hindu nationalism and there has this been this climate of of hindu nationalism in india over the last few years.

what mess if you believe that india is a state. that belongs to all to people of all faiths what message does this send to non hindus in india. so india belongs to people of all faiths and that is given in our constitution and therefore we have a vote it in boston muslims in india but illegal immigrants are illegal in immigrants in respect of the religion so illegal immigrants have to be concerned about it and that they should be concerned about it because we have very miscast natural resources i think you need to have a very uniform policy of the universe and policy that where you know the entire countries of the world take the burden busy of the illegal immigrants or the refugees that come not india we have huge number off in estimated to separate from 1951 we have at about a 120000000 you know people coming into india so it becomes the universal issue and

a problem in every country must you know share the legal immigrant saw that if you do that a coming having said that this issue started during the congress time there was an accord between the. students union and the government of india that government of india and then the it was decided that there will be there will be a register of citizens so let's not be gypsies are the present governments edge into it just continuing from the past and this promise to the people of us was being deferred our very day and that created a huge problem if you had been done and we're going to talk about it then we would have a bill to you know contain the problem then and there we've got about a minute left i'm going to give what's probably going to last what now 2. well i'm just evil from what i see on the ground as i said there's a lot of fear out there is lot of confusion and i expect at the you know incoming

times that the government will also come to the aid of dispy people and that is monday and the other thing i want to it is. you know there's a little difference between what the s.o.b.'s the majority community which i also come from. thinking of the moment and what the government is thinking which is the b.g.p. led government in the state and the sentence would be should be government if there is certainly and a communal overtone you know is into this but what i see among the community and my conversations with a lot of intellectuals and the student leaders the other of course the us who is a little worried about you know it or not a not too happy with the number that they got yesterday so that's also because you know at various points of time the parliament in the parliament various ministers have given out some numbers though does not scientific basis to those numbers are they are saying this but that but what i see is that the the people here are the people are looking at it as a migration issue they're not looking at as

a human the muslim issue yet we're going to look but in coming days we don't know what which turned it was to we've got to leave it there thank you to all 3 of your psyche to borrow appreciate auti desha rotten nigam and ronan lee thanks very much for being on inside story and thank you as always for watching remember you can see this program any time by visiting our website and is it a dot com and for further discussion you can go to our facebook page that's facebook dot com forward slash a.j. inside story you can also join the conversation on twitter handle where it's at a.j. inside story for me hasn't taken a whole theme here by fidel. to

to the program we begin in yemen where the red cross says dozens of people have been killed in an air strike the side led military coalition says it targeted the rebels in the city of the rebels say the facility was a prison inmates loyal to the u.n. recognized government laura birdman they reports. residents in damascus explosions shook the city aid workers be pulling the dead and injured out of the rubble who who thinks blame with saudia marotta coalition fighting in yemen saying they targeted to previous university who is being used as attention center prisoners of war the who they say people under lock and key would try at the bombs fell. but the saudi coalition says the fight. story drones and missiles. even negatives are now national i swear to god i don't know what happened we were sleeping at midnight and then there was about 3 or 4 airstrikes maybe 6 it was

targeting the jail i really don't know how many times it got hurt but it was targeting a detention center in the city of demand we were $100.00 people on the ground level and around $150.00 at the upper level and in the red cross came the coalition has come under intense criticism by human rights groups for targeting civilians in previous ass strikes it says it took measures to protect civilian casualties. there is a crime committed by these taining political activists and journalists. and political dissidents whom they used to in places that they constantly have been advised by human rights and you know as not to not to put them in dangerous areas also most of those people who have died today have basically haven't even seen in courts the saudi coalition continuous bombing of residential residential areas even

if they consider that you know cation or that specific place is they believe may be and may have some. form of the military a military target these are residential areas this is why it was used as a reason. the coalition has been fighting in yemen since 2015 supporting the internationally recognized yemeni government against the rebels. the war has killed tens of thousands and had a devastating impact on millions of yemenis nor about unmanly al jazeera. israeli army says the exchange of fire with the lebanese armed group hezbollah is over for now after both sides shelled each other has been lost as it's find his targeted military vehicle israeli forces retaliated by shelling a border village in southern lebanon no casualties were reported on either side prime minister benjamin netanyahu says his forces are are on

a high state of alert well tensions between lebanon and israel have heightened over the past few weeks has block used israel of carrying out drone attacks on its media office in the lebanese capital a week ago that happened hours after israel launched attacks in neighboring syria one killed the 2 as blast soldiers the iranian backed group has warned israel it will face repercussions for the attack in beirut israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu says israel will continue to target in radio and back groups including its balaam well we have correspondents on both sides of the border in a moment we'll goal to say the harder in lebanon but let's 1st course to harry fawcett in northern israel hairy an intense day could this be seen as not just a strategic move from israel but a political one too. well certainly the politics plays into it benjamin netanyahu is in the midst of an election campaign

and a very big part of the message that he's been giving to israelis as he usually does during elections is his handle on israeli security but he's also been making a clear communication to not just israeli voters but also to allies and opponents around the world that iran's threat is growing is changing and that israel and others should tackle it and that one of those places where it is most pressing is inside lebanon on. these really military these are the government put out intelligence suggesting or arguing that precision guided weapons he was being manufactured inside lebanon in coordination between hezbollah and iran and that has been seen as a justification for israel's actions last week against hezbollah fighters in syria and the drone attack which was attributed to israel but not admitted by israel in

one of hezbollah's southern strongholds and so then we've been waiting for a response promised by hezbollah and it came at 415 local time this afternoon these anti-tank missile strikes against an israeli military installation very close to where we are here just outside the community of avivim and that was responded to by israel with artillery but it was all over according to the israeli military less than 2 hours after it began and as you say without any casualties apparently on either side so both sides appearing to calibrate this very carefully here's what benjamin netanyahu had to say a short while after the military declared that it seemed to be over and. we were attacked by several anti-tank missiles we're tallied with about 100 shells from the air and by other means you were holding consultation concerning the future i ordered them to be prepared as you know for any possibility we have no casualties

not even a scratch you want. now the analysis the messages coming from both sides in the week that we've been waiting for this has been response as all seem to point towards one thing that neither side has an appetite for a total breakdown into all out military conflict certainly for benjamin netanyahu. appearing strong in the lead up to election and forceful militarily is one thing seeing forces potentially losing lives in a descent into all out war would be something very different it does seem from their actions this afternoon sunday afternoon that both sides have proved that analysis right they have limited their military responses they've calibrated them very carefully and for now at least a full triggering of why the conflict has been avoided how he feels that they are joining the air from israel have anything he. well it's get more now from saying

a whole day is in the southern lebanon the border with israel hi there is in a what's been the reaction in lebanon how significant was what happened today. well there is no doubt people are relieved that this was short lived so near a 2 hours and that the situation was contained because many were worried about the possibility of all out war back in 2006 israel has fought a devastating war many really blame hezbollah for starting the war by a cross-court a raid that killed and kidnapped israeli soldiers so people were really bracing for the worst this country is facing a dire economic crisis is so people are quite relieved but at the same time many didn't really expect has a lot to act irresponsibly they expected a proportionate response to what has happened to avoid an all out war and that

seems to have half it has said that it will retaliate because israeli airstrikes in neighboring syria killed 2 of its operatives and it did that but the question is this incident may now be over but israel scuse me hezbollah saying that it intends to defend lebanon skies and prevent israel from using or flying its drones in and lebanese airspace it hasn't said how it intends to do that so the possibility of yet another confrontation is there and we have to also remember that what is what has happened is really linked to regional tensions between the u.s. and iran and between israel and iran israel considers hezbollah an ally of iran and it has been trying to weaken iran across the region targeting targeting positions in syria as of late that is being accused of targeting positions of the iranian back to iraqi groups in iraq and of course those. drone drone episode in the

southern suburbs of beirut last week so israel making clear that its scope of attacks has now been expanded and that it's going to continue this campaign so what if it carries out more strikes in syria kills even more hezbollah fighters or members of the group so the situation is still terms but definitely people are relieved that this incident is now over it's in harder there in southern lebanon say nothing. protesters in hong kong have again targeted the city's airport disrupting travelers said the demonstrations came a day after some of the worst violence the city has seen since protests started nearly 3 months ago when he reports. this isn't the welcome people expect when arriving to check in at hong kong airport was for the 2nd time in 3 weeks and he government protesters tried to block access to one of the busiest terminals in the world in some areas they succeeded confusing and worrying travelers and you cannot

go back to the diverse place where you wanted to go. and that people are afraid because of what's happening here i place designed to prevent protesters coming anywhere near here it clearly didn't was that legal action was taken after their last raid on the airport which saw people camp inside the terminal for several days. all they do is all hong kong airport is very important to the economy we chose here to try to paralyze it a make a point instead of randomly picking street talk e.p.i. it's much better to come here. i this time the site of the police moving in was enough to force a retreat for most was those not quick enough were arrested was in the end the protest to stay at the airport was a relatively brief one but again they proved they can strike at what they say is

a soft target before the police moved in to retake the air. still it would be a long time before transport began to return to normal meaning long.
