and the bullets thank you so yes iran's president says his country's energy program will now operate without limits terence preparing to take its 3rd major step in scaling back its commitments to the nuclear deal that's after the united states impose new sanctions on tehran for the 3rd time in a week the u.s. is also offering a 15000000 dollar reward to anyone who gives washington credible information about the oil shipping network run by iran's revolutionary guards. as we didn't reach our desired result the atomic energy organization will now immediately start what he with the technical needs of the country in the field of nuclear research and development we will put aside all commitments made in the field of research and development all kinds of new center fuses and everything we need for enrichment. meanwhile al-jazeera has been granted rare access to the only nuclear research facility in iran where the controversial 20 percent enriched uranium is being used has this exclusive report from the teheran nuclear research

react. this is the reason iran says its nuclear program needs 20 percent enriched uranium to keep its 1st nuclear reactor working. the center of the 5 megawatt reactor does all the work its source is a number of chemical elements which scientists here call a fuel assembly before it came into use in 2009 iran had to import 20 percent enriched uranium from argentina interact with this reactor originally used 90 percent of fuel in the past produced by an american company that it was realized reactors likeness could work with 20 percent fuel as well so to change all reactors in a way to use 20 percent field including our reactor in 1903. but since iran began producing its own uranium rival powers have objected they're concerned that with that technology reaching those higher grades of enrich uranium above 90 percent would mean being able to produce

a nuclear weapon would be achievable during this tightly supervised visit officials repeatedly state iran's government is only interested in nuclear energy and not arms several nuclear scientists have been assassinated and employees here hide their identity for safety the higher quality chemical elements or isotopes iran says it needs are made here they've arrived through an underground tunnel from the main reactor by the radio isotopes are produced here in these cells when they're sent back from the reactor it is cut and sold number one and sent to the of the cells according to the type of radioisotopes and the process continues that in some cases we have to extract the main material from the original material the isotopes then come here for further purification they are all then packed in special containers and sent to medical facilities in iran and to other countries. these radioactive isotopes can be used to detect blood clots and to treat and kill cancer

cells and officials here say they're used to treat more than a 1000000 patients in iran each year the international atomic energy organization regularly visits the site and says iran has been complying with the 2015 nuclear deal agreed with 6 world powers until now it stopped after the united states withdrew from the group it last year and impose additional sanctions on iran officials here say the european signatories have yet to uphold their commitments and say that's why iran is scaling back on its obligations but there's another reason to this reactor was built in the late 1960 s. but the nuclear agreement that was signed in vienna 4 years ago means that its influence were put on hold now its future could very well determine whether iran stays in the 2015 agreements a future for this nuclear program of growth or neglect. and politics over the nuclear deal aside it's that that may determine what steps iran takes next door

such a pari al jazeera at the tehran nuclear research reactor ok here's what's coming up for you on this news hour can dorian threatening the u.s. east coast we're going have a live update from south carolina also a new cabinet for sudan the country has its 1st female foreign minister as well and in sport african countries have taken their 1st steps on the road to 2022 the details coming up a little later with far. let's get an update on hurricane dorian now which is expected to hit the u.s. states of north and south carolina it's now a category 2 storm 200000 homes and businesses are without power in those 2 states earlier. when dorian made landfall in the bahamas the speed of the winds was actually the highest on record so let's get an update here we go to charleston

south carolina. and he gallagher is there for us and just a couple of hours since i think i last spoke to you and just look back and picking up a bit. yeah i mean i think sounds almost to the point being able to breathe a collective sigh of relief of the storm is about 120 kilometers to our east just in the damage here hasn't been too bad there's been some flooding. where. it's by pushing the tide into the city so we didn't get those floods that have been predicted people are still being told to just ride this storm shelters for now but all eyes are really north. towards this is what south carolina north carolina kind of. like an archipelago and there is a potential for landfall there but the latest track the eye of hurricane dorian just staying off the coast of the outer banks in north carolina for now so it's

going to be a very close call. but many of those areas have already been under a mandatory evacuation order something like $8900000.00 people are now under a tropical storm watch because this storm is simply so huge that the warnings go up as far as massachusetts but as i said at the moment the next few hours are really vital north carolina the focus is awaiting for that right east and it will take the storm eventually away from the coast of north carolina but it is going to be a very close call and the strength of the storm right now i think i said it was category 2 now but i mean it keeps going up and down on the scale it was category 3 probably going. yeah because it keeps hovering at the lower end of a 3 and a high end of it too so it's just a few kilometers an hour between those 2 categories it just goes backwards and forwards but all the time when you watch the national hurricane center is saying

you could almost. believe that we may have dodged a bullet because this storm has been going on for 12 days everyone's pretty exhausted about how long this storm has been lasting but we could be entering the final stages here it's just what happens in north carolina and the next 12 to 24 hours that will be the thing to watch as i said those outer banks and i've been there many times covering hurricanes are often evacuated there are lots of. most people are out of the way but what we're really waiting for is that shocked into the east to finally get hurricane away from the east. that is that gallagher at charleston south carolina reporting on hurrican dorian and i think we've got communications now with manuel who is in treasure king in the bahamas of course the bahamas. well absolutely destroyed in many places by hurrican dorrian before it headed to the united states how bad is what you've seen.

can you hear me it's come on here. yet we haven't got communications on fortunately yet again later as you can see is using a satellite phone there so communication with the bahamas pretty difficult at the moment after hurricane dorian let's move on jason green glass who is the u.s. president's special envoy for the middle east has announced he plans to resign and step down in a few weeks after president trump unveils his long delayed peace plan which is expected sometime after the israeli election on september 17 more from our white house correspondent kelly how kit. according to president donald trump's twitter feed jason greenblatt is returning to the private sector it's unclear if he'll be returning to work with the trump organization where he had worked previously prior to joining the white house team we do know that he is considered one of the

architects of donald trump's middle east plan when the president's called the deal of the century a really given this departure raises questions about the prospects of this plan and any potential success in resolving the israeli palestinian conflict this is work that has been done in secret for months along with the president's son in law jared cushion or we do know one aspect of the plan has a large economic component raising some 50000000000 to help improve the lot of the palestinians but many people speculate the this plan is nothing short of dead on arrival given the fact that this is ministration from the beginning has taken a very adversarial stance with regard to the palestinian leaders and the palestinian leader for their part say that they will reject this plan as a result of the lack of consultation the fact that they were not involved now we do know that in terms of this plan the white house saying that it will be released

sometime after the israeli elections on september 17th we are on clear whether or not jason green will stay for that unveiling or if he will be gone if this plan is delayed yet again as it has been repeatedly already that does raise some questions about the fact that if the architect of the plan is not going to stick around how viable is it moving forward. southern africa has temporarily shut its embassy in nigeria after a series of reprisal attacks on south african businesses there protesters gathered to voice their anger at foreign businesses being attacked in johannesburg in pretoria south africa's president's arrival forces says at least 10 people have been killed since sunday he has labeled the violence xenophobia south africa have a large number of economic interests and business businesses in nigeria many of which are now under police protection well so that because presidents around the horses spoke about the unrest

a short time ago over the past few days our country has been deeply traumatized by acts of extruded violence perpetrated by men against women and children in our country these acts of violence have made us doubt the very foundation of our democratic society our commitment to human rights and human dignity to equality to peace and to justice. well our jury is recalling its top diplomat in south africa as well after days of violence in johannesburg and pretoria. as a report. most of these people are from zimbabwe they say they were attacked on monday at around 3 local time they saw dozens of men hitting towards them telling them to least of africa because they are foreigners what wasn't littered was destroyed all of us we are human beings so we have to if miss for each other.

the way that triggered this other it's not that. they have to have missed because all of us africans it's only the difference because of the borders but all of us and all blacks africans soaring inflation rising food prices and high unemployment in zimbabwe made it difficult to survive the that's why they came here to look for work but some locals feel foreigners from other parts of africa are competing with them for scarce jobs and government services more than 100 people have lost their belongings during the violence they're trying to start over and rebuild their homes but many say they still don't feel safe here afraid african foreigners could be targeted again. president still has condemned the attacks as in a phobic and acceptable many foreign owned businesses and african foreign nationals have been attacked threats of reprisals for south africa to temporarily shut its

embassy and consulate in nigeria we people have been protesting against attacks we also are proud of every count right. off what you have done. become hardened markets. have formed. they have also been demonstrations in zambia people they are threatening to boycott south african companies like shoprite supermarket you know certain african business . if you're out to murder me go to shoprite show because. after days of right is not a relatively quiet to tory and johanna spoke people are assessing what was lost and trying to pick up the pieces but it could take longer for south africa to repair the damage done and change the perception some have that foreign african nationals are not welcome here. now sudan has its 1st female foreign

minister after swearing in a new prime minister last month cabinet members of the sovereign council have now been chosen this is after of course months of political uncertainty and violence in sudan is the 1st cabinet since former president omar bashir was deposed in april and stopped to have a morgan about this in khartoum so much of the problems leading up to this has been about representation about who is going to be from which side of the argument here so how does the cabinet then look as representative of the country. that's something the prime minister spoke about just before he announced the name of the ministers who will be appointed who will be sworn in in the coming days he said that the reason why there was a delay in naming or and dealing this cabinet is because they wanted to make sure that there was equal representation and that their women got enough seats that's why the he said. as well as 3 other female ministers he also

mentioned beds there are 2 of the seeds ministerial seeds that have not been filled yet because they want to make sure that parts of the country like the southern state of blue nile and the eastern states get representation there for these seeds should be going there so it looks like the prime minister did take into account the fact that each and every part of the country as well as women representation is actually fulfilled in the executive cabinet but he also said that this cabinet has to be to protect necrotic cabinet qualified cabinet and he said that's why it took him some time along with the forces of freedom and change in the coalition that appointed him nominated him to be appointed as a prime minister that's why to give some time to come together to go to come to come up with these names that will form the executive cabinet. thank you for the update him or going to him. the youngest son of the former egyptian president mohamed morsi has died of a heart attack in cairo abella morsi was $25.00 he was detained briefly last year

for allegedly spreading false news and for belonging to the muslim brotherhood a banned group whose political wing was once led by his father in june mohamed morsi himself died after collapsing in court during a trial on espionage charges in the news ahead on al-jazeera. with one eye why these tens of thousands of iraqi graduates are out protesting. women are officially more susceptible to outsiders scientists say it's because their brains are different from men's. and sport rugby world cup hosts japan look to cause another big upset against south africa. how we got more hot sunshine across the middle east the levant so clear skies

a little bit of cloud over towards the far southeast of pakistan but even here i think jyoti the showers will remain across the northwest of india so corrupt she 34 celsius also sunshine some of the temperature to fall to ron want to see showers a possibility between the black sea and the caspian sea but across the levant it's fine by route getting up to 30 celsius over the next couple of days of $41.00 there for baghdad a little warmer than that into work q 8 city be some showers further north up towards georgia up towards our mania once again not too many showers in the forecast across the peninsula but a little more cloud into southern parts of saudi arabia southern areas of amman as well and over towards yemen you could just see wanted to showers around the southern end of the red sea temperatures here in doha pick up a touch as we go i wanted to say as day. so around $42.00 degrees lots of dry weather has made to dry recently across parts of south africa little area cloud here driving its way into the heart of the country that will continue to push

further east was we have got flood warnings in force across eastern parts of south africa at the moment possibly since no 2 over the track in the peaks but drier weather saturday. to strengthen the good you have to sure do good all the more with you can still fight against corruption. needs heroes heroes like no who are bad who refused a $50000000.00 bribe the achievement of euros like him to showcase by the international ace award it shines a light on these heroes because the best way to find a dark used to shine a light let's make the road to a better place nominate your anti corruption mirror now.

talk to al-jazeera we ask what guarantees will you give to the people who will be attending the minimal workshop we listen i'm supposed to explain apologize for someone who is also terrorizing we meet with global newsmakers and talk about the stories that matter on the soldiers 0. on the news on here at al-jazeera and these are our top stories the british prime minister is repeated his foul not to ask the e.u. for an extension on bragg's that in a world when 24 hours for boris johnson that's the face to face in parliament and the resignation of his own brother from the government justin green blasts the u.s.

president's special envoy for the middle east has announced he plans to resign he says he'll step down in a few weeks after donald trump unveils his long delayed peace plan and sudan's new prime ministers announced the 1st. since former president or one of the shia was deposed in april the government was formed as part of a power sharing deal between the military and civilian parties and protest groups. says a u.s. service member and a romanian soldier have been killed in a suicide car bombing in afghanistan's capital the taliban's claimed responsibility for the kabul attack which killed at least 10 people and wounded dozens more it happened in an area close to embassies and government buildings. protests have continued in hong kong despite a key concession from the government the city's chief executive finally agreed to fully withdraw the bill that would allow criminal suspects to be extradited to mainland china critics though is still saying it's all too little too late to reports from hong kong. a familiar scene just hours after hong kong's chief

executive and now it's the withdrawal of an extradition bill that sparked a violent protest but the concession failed to peace protesters. on thursday kerry faced the media to explain why it took so long to give in to the protesters demands and that she had beijing's full support that's true of the whole process the central people's stuff men took the position that they understood why we have to do it. they respect my view and they supported me all the way. since june violent confrontations between police and the mostly young protesters have become an almost daily event against much opposition the government tried to push through the bill that would have allowed suspects in hong kong to face trial in mainland china i think she needs to. possible charges all the other demands ok and just

a quick. action if she has done these you know list all of them do you know 3 months earlier none of this or have the other issues include voting rights since beijing appoints hong kong's leader to an election committee and more pressing for many in the city an investigation into police conduct during the months of protests as people go about their business here on where day the city's not convulsed with protest you could be forgiven for thinking that life in hong kong is going back to normal but there are constant reminders everywhere that this is a city on edge. hung kong operates under a one country 2 systems model. and joining freedoms on thinkable in other parts of china but in recent years there has been an unprecedented interference from the central party in the city's affairs system many of the protesters feel the government puts beijing's interests ahead of their needs and they warn the city's autonomy and their future is at stake we believe it is an attempt to say to us but

of course it will not work we have seen 3 carry ons lies we have seen through the lies of this government and we will not back down not even. a clear message that the end of the extradition bill this not mean an end to the city's unrest the bigger pollin are jazeera hong kong. chinese and american trade negotiations are to meet for talks in october as they try to put an end to the trade war between the world's 2 largest economies the latest round of tariffs between the 2 countries went into effect on sunday russian president vladimir putin says his country will resume production of intermediate range missiles the ones that were banned at least until last month with that and more news from europe we're back to certain in london. yes that i'm a person made the announcement after the economic forum in the far east in the city of light of all stock he also suggested that

a major prisoner exchange with ukraine could be taking place shortly so vasant has more now from moscow. speaking from the eastern economic forum and bloody well stocked president bush said again that russia would build new nuclear missiles now the i.n.f. treaty intermediate force this treaty collapsed a month ago but he also said that russia won't use them unless the united states thus we. have already said publicly that we will not deploy even after the americans tested such a missile we will not deploy it but we will produce missiles of the same kind. at the forum which is meant to improve relations with its asian neighbors and also to develop the far east of russia the guest of honor was indian prime minister modi when putting was asked if russia should join the g. 8 he said that a g 8 was most welcome here in russia but that he can't imagine an effective international leadership these days without the presence of china and india and

even turkey that after turkey already asked $400.00 anti-missile defense system from russia turkey has also become a relevant partner putin also announced at the forum that there's going to be an imminent prisoner swap between ukraine and russia which has been in the making for a while and which has been high on the agenda of ukrainian presidents alinsky when he came to office a few months ago it is believed that among those prisoners going home are 24 sailors from ukraine who have been detained last november in the courage trade and also a famous filmmaker from ukraine all accents of who has been jailed for 20 years here in russia the delay was apparently caused by a key witness in the team case the downer of the airliner in 2014 were killed which killed 298 people well this key witness has been released in ukraine today which

now seems to have paved the way for this important prisoner exchange of for tens of prisoners which is expected very soon now and which will be the 1st step in improving the relationship between russia and ukraine. italy has a new government prime minister does that become taste cabernets has been sworn in by the president. of the. country running in the new administration with a ceremonial ballot a coalition is an unlikely alliance between the 5 star movement and his former rival the leftist democratic party it ends a month long crisis triggered when far weight the right leader matches salvini pulled his party out of its ruling coalition with 5 star. and 2 villages in front have won a court case being seen as a victory for the thanks this traditional rule lifestyle a cautious thrown out an attempt to silence the cockerel maurice from his crowing

mom now a member of the family is always with the 96 year old the one time that cause us the greatest concern is when she walked out of the apartment at my in her nightgown . it was a rapid decline for a woman who had raised 2 children been active in her church and worked outside the home a factor now known to help stave off memory loss one new study shows the average memory performance for non-working women between 60 and 70 years old declined twice as fast as women who were working outside the home 2 thirds of people living with alzheimer's in the united states are women experts used to attribute that to the fact that women tend to live longer than men do but new evidence suggests that's not the entire story and in fact women's brains are different. the latest research on the subject presented by the alzheimer's association shows that women with the disease have higher levels of brain metabolism compared with men which may

account for their superior verbal memory performance what they found was that the tao protein is much more likely to accumulate in these areas in women and this is important because this area is really prone to spreading the disease though a protein related to the disease tends to spread more quickly contributing to what appears to be a faster decline in women but there is an impact on detection knowing that the disease can present differently and progressed to friendly in men and women in the medical community doctors need to recognize that in part maybe be more sensitive to the differences between how women present with early disease worse as men it's useful information for families too but it's reassuring to have that information because without that information you don't know what to do as those with a parent or sibling without timers oh say i got are themselves more likely to develop the disease christian salumi al-jazeera we've got keith foggo with us now

director of scientific programs an outrage out simas association in the united states he's on skype from chicago. i guess 1st of all i should ask you do you agree with all of this stay i mean kristen put it very succinctly in her report and said that the idea that women's brains i just different they they operate in a different way but it has this negative effect but he has it's a double edged sword i think it's important to point out 1st of all that your reporter was correct in that the traditional wisdom has been that women live longer and that that accounts for the fact that more women than men have also timers disease and that is still an important part actually of this equation but what we're seeing now from new research is that women and men do experience the disease if only because we do have some subtle differences in our brain structure no women and men are certainly more ally and they are different but sometimes the small

differences there do exist between the sexes are important and these may be one of the ways that those differences are or is this something in this report in this research that you feel that that gives us a good starting point something that would not only. not only help women but help men as well busy and help us understand a little reasons a bit more. yeah absolutely i think one of the most exciting things that i saw at the all timers association international conference this year which was where some of this research was presented was this idea about the networks and men's and women's brains being somewhat different and that again it's a double edged sword because the women seem to have stronger networks related to verbal memory so that actually during the majority of their lives is a benefit you know they have a very strong verbal memory as compared to men a game or any with a broad brush here and then when you get into later ages there's maybe some of the

same networks that are related to this reading of this abnormal talc routine which that's the other side of the sword there where that can actually make a person more vulnerable to developing all at the age and the more that we understand why women and men are having different lightly or different patterns of developing this disease the more that we're going to be able to create medications in therapeutics to target them appropriately and really deal with it was becoming a public health crisis in our case i just noticed the hash tag behind you there i think it says and all of it just makes me wonder about when if in the united states you can tell me about whether the disease gets enough. time out there you know there are a lot of them have all fallen out of diseases in the world which can affect anyone to people know enough is there enough knowledge about it. i think it's been increasing in recent years awareness of of all timers disease and part of that is

breaking down these walls they have to do a stigma and actually just being able to talk about all timers off hammers disease is the biggest leading cause of death is the leading cause of death for people who are over the age of 65 yet traditionally we haven't spoken enough about it i mean you can go back a few decades in the same thing was true for cancer and people spoke more and more about cancer more and more research dollars were put aside for cancer and now we have cures for many forms of cancer and the all hybrids association we see a similar path forward for all timers ready the more we can talk about all timers disease without fear without. the more people become aware of how important it is the more research dollars are set aside for all timers disease and soon we'll have cures for all timers use just like we do for cancer today good point well made case from the outside as a physician in the u.s. thank you so much for your time thank you.
