failure or we can hear the singing and the chanting and obviously see the crowds behind you at the stadium there but what is the mood at the stadium because robert mugabe was a very divisive figure. he wasn't even polarizing in date right now here in the stadium i can see a very jovial people who can't really be thinking. if i was right now you see the police have lined up the people when when the time comes we will be walking through the police up the way that kin to the coffin has been opened people can walk past the human body they could buy and go back and sit on the this place is very historical lots of memories for many many of the baldwin in 1800 the union jack was brought down this is why we flag was raised it was a smaller name that's prime minister and he promised a lot of things a bit like he's going to prove to improve for busy the bobbins but $29.00 t.v.

interesting to know that this is the 1st major attack the taliban has carried out near the capital since president from cancel those peace talks with the taliban 5 days ago he did that by tweet the taliban responded that the americans would suffer more than they would and we were expecting in kabul some kind of violent backlash to that decision but so far nothing apart from 2 days ago a a lone rocket fired indiscriminately into cardboard very close to the american embassy but it caused no casualties and little damage so this is being seen here is something of a positive sign people expected an attack by the taliban it hasn't happened perhaps now is giving you know food for thought that they are considering their next move and perhaps going to approach the negotiating process in a different frame of mind also we're hearing that there are lots of pressure being put on the americans to come back to the negotiating table but the attack comes

hours after president donald trump promised to hit the afghan taliban harder than ever it made that comment at a ceremony marking 18 years since the 911 attacks the council of peace talks with the group following the killing of a u.s. soldier a few days ago. we had peace talks scheduled a few days ago. i called them off when i learned that they had killed a great american soldier from puerto rico and 11 other innocent people they thought they would use this attack to show strength but actually what they showed is unrelenting week it's the last 4 days we have hit our enemy harder than they have ever been hit before and that will continue. top u.s. democratic party candidates hoping to replace donald trump in next year's election are facing each other later on thursday 10 candidates are going to share a stage 10 other hopefuls have been excluded robins reports from houston. it's

a major concern in polling the unifying theme is fight and be trump the candidate who can you know show competence in doing that i think it is likely to attract a lot of support so far that has benefited biden who's seen as best able to reach out to voters in rust belt states like michigan and wisconsin where trump narrowly won in 2016 but the choice of texas as the venue for this debate is also significant for decades democrats have dreamed of moving this state into the democratic column analysts believe this could be the election in which that happens texas is a dynamic and changing state we've got urban professional suburban professionals from around the country moving and we've also got a large. cultural population coming of age and beginning to vote those the combination of those factors is changing the state's politics and a massive and rapid way a lot of the president's rhetoric against immigrants the policies in these

affairs of the media. and this an official campaign video from likud the prime minister's party once again singling out journalists who've reported on leaks related to the corruption cases this video tells the audience they will not decide this is the 2nd election in 6 months and the big question is can benjamin netanyahu win again and if he does any form of government but it's really the day after that's going to determine what happens to israel's longest serving prime minister just a couple of weeks off to the vote he faces a hearing on corruption charges and the worst case scenario for benjamin netanyahu is just netanyahu is facing 3 criminal cases of corruption and fraud 2 of them are linked to allegations of giving the prime minister favorable coverage in the media and you know the media's both the strength of his success the secret to his success and the possible way that it's going to get a failure i like to say that for and it's and you know the media is like kryptonite

caicos islands see the development right there well the national hurricane center is actually just increase the probability that the next 2 days 75 percent chance of development in the next 5 days 80 percent chance of development and this is the area that they think that the storm once it develops is going to go it's going to go up here towards the northwest now to look at the path of the storm right over the bahamas and into florida you don't need this happening now they think this is going to turn into a tropical depression or tropical storm in the next day of course that's going to cause a lot of problems in terms of wins possibly some light storm surge in terms of rain though we don't want to be seeing quite a bit of rain on the storm most of it is going to make its way towards the east it's still too early to know that because we need that storm to develop 1st then to tell us where it's going to be going so going to watching this area very carefully but as you can see over freeport over the next few days it stays fairly wet across this region so this is going to make it more difficult for recovery and relief efforts in terms of rain though we could be seeing quite

this is a government clinic in malaysia where vaccinations are given free for 12 preventable major childhood diseases including measles diphtheria and polio immunization coverage has reached 95 percent but the program isn't mandatory and mohammad nor bin zakaria a father of 2 has chosen not to vaccinate his children i don't believe that although. i do believe the measles is not a deadly disease because if we look at the older generation how did they deal with it somehow we're treating all these diseases that have existed for a long time something that is so deadly and i believe that with good sanitation good hygiene good nutrition and existing information you can treat made at least from my child that's my personal stand but i don't go around telling parents not to vaccinate their kids. reasons cited by other parents for not vaccinating include concerns about possible adverse side effects and religious grounds this debate is taking place not only in malaysia but globally the world health organization has

blamed vaccine misinformation as a major threat to global health saying it could reverse progress made in tackling preventable diseases one example is measles provisional data from the w.h.o. indicates the have been more measles cases reported worldwide in the 1st half of this year than in any year since 2006 the rise in measles cases is driven by poverty in some places but in more developed countries is due to a growing wave of people who refuse immunization for their children in malaysia the health ministry says the number of anti vaccines as they're known is small but the government is considering a proposal to make certain vaccinations compulsory for children we all agree that our children must not be exposed to such unnecessary release especially when there is vaccination available and it's free for the children in. america are of me and his wife expecting their 1st child next month and they've decided that they'll follow the national immunization shed you know interest but not protect your child

need for vaccination of the w.h.o. says the truth is that the diseases could be brought in by travelers from other countries yet another common myth.
