to some it doesn't matter they say they will keep showing up. but. i really have to care about the success rate to the protesting i never would have started to protest in the beginning it's about how demands have to hold the can't just keep silent let things happen. the movement started over a bill that would have allowed extraditions from hong kong to mainland china it was permanently show. but the movement grew and intensified mainly because of what protesters have said is the heavy handed treatment by police as a crackdown on the protests an unauthorized marches for the majority of this on authorized march through central hong kong here the protesters faced little resistance from the police the police were there but there really wasn't any confrontation it was when they got close to the government complex here their final destination where there have been kind of frontlines there's been confrontation and then a push back and then another front line is been established the police just on the other side and that's one of the front lines here on one side of the government complex. to show the protesters do not represent all of hong kong's people

a probation group held 2 events across the territory on sunday a few hours before the march began facing the chinese national anthem. and in taiwan viewed as a breakaway province by beijing a show of support for hong kong people came out in the pouring rain as part of what's being described as a global anti-authoritarianism day. it's in to support it that the hong kong anti-government protesters will again come out in force on tuesday it's china's national day marking 70 years since the founding of the people's republic of china the protesters say they will use the occasion to continue their fight against what they say is beijing's move to gain more and more control over their city scotter al jazeera hong kong. now polls have closed in austria snap parliamentary election the early vote was called after former chancellor sebastian curses center right coalition collapsed in the wake of a corruption scandal kurtz's people's party is facing off against its former

coalition partners the far right freedom r.t. and the center left social democrats. let's get more now from dominic came he's in vienna and i think the polls have just closed ride any indication where we're heading. yes i mean the polls closed in the last 10 minutes or so and the 1st exit polls have been published and they show a very clear results mr kurtz's people's party up on where they were in the last election a few years back at 37 percent of the vote interesting lee his previous coalition partners the freedom party that party that was engulfed in the scandal that emerged from that video footage was shown showing some of its leaders talking to people about how russia could increase its influence in this country's affairs or they have fallen very markedly down to 16 percent of the vote the social democrats the

center left party that had as it wore were voted with the freedom party to kick mr cortes out of the chancery as the building behind me they also just on 22 percent interestingly the green party who really weren't represented in the previous parliament or they're definitely going to be back into the to the part of that's just been elected 13 percent of the vote the question now is what does mr kurtz do next clearly emerging as the leader of the largest party no question about that 37 percent of the of the vote according to these exit polls how much of a shakeup is this election then delivering to the political landscape. well let's be clear about one thing the previous harlem entry elections going back some considerable way in this country there has been as it were a center right or right or far right tendency in this country with much

considerably more than 50 percent of those who turn out to vote voting for those parties and yet now that has gone away to a certain extent mr kurtz is certainly some mentoring his hold over the same. to write 37 percent of the vote but then look at the rest of it the freedom party dropping to 16 percent they will if that is correct if that turns out to be the result have to stress it's just exit polls but if that is correct then it means they will lose a great many seats in parliament it is a repudiation for them if of course as i say these exit polls prove correct and then you have the chance alliance in possibility that mr courts could say well maybe i should reach out to a different party the green party and there's an interesting thing here that some of his political allies on the other side of the austrian border with germany well they have been working to that's christian democrats have been working with the greens will mr cortes reach out to the greens certainly he might well say he has a mandate to do that if as i say this 37 percent exit poll showing proved to be the

final result. there are a double it came there from vienna. plenty more still ahead on the news hour including tens of thousands turned out on the streets of moscow to protest the killing of opposition activists why violence isn't the only thing voters to sit out afghanistan's election. in sports whiles in australia rugby world cup we're into action coming up with. britain's prime minister is fighting battles on several fronts as he joins members of his conservative party in manchester for the annual conference there's not only the braggs it pressure on boris johnson now there's also calls for him to resign over corruption allegations from his time as london's mayor lawrence lee joins us

from that conference in manchester so how's he holding up. well he's trying to stay on top of the agenda and bat some of this stuff away he went to a hospital today on the sunday because he says as part of the agenda that the concert was want to put forward in a forthcoming election money for the health service would be really important just like with the police and all these other really sort of monday in bits of bits of policy but as you say he's fighting several fires at the same time and the thing is really if if you discount all the things that keep happening soon losing every vote in parliaments the corruption claim that's now being investigated by the police against him in this relationship this american woman the fact she lost in the supreme court and the in the gradual erosion of his of his support base inside ball and discount all of those things and the only thing that still really matters is

how he proposes to solve this impossible dilemma where he's being told by parliaments under the law that he has to seek the an extension to the bricks it's from the european union he says he will abide by that law and yet at the same time says and the u.k. will leave the european union at the end of october and won't go for the extension you can't do both of those things of the same time and so consequently all these rumors and theories a swirling around manchester and london what will he do will it will he resign will will he say i'm going to do it and risk being being processed put him put in jail for contempt of parliament will invoke an emergency law suits it says the clarity of a national emergency in the country no one knows because the other one sort or can't say and so that's the entire backdrop to the party conference and consequently whatever he says he wants to talk about schools and hospitals people are listening but what you can to do about bricks it's and that's where he's finding it almost on a difficulty keeping on top of the agenda none of this no doubt lost in the on the

opposition there in the u.k. how is parliament shaping up. well remember last at the end of last week he lost yet another vote in parliament he wanted parliament to allow the conservative party to hold this conference and the parliament not to see it they said no you can't do that because they're so fed up with the ways been behaving inside parliaments so consequently have this bizarre situation with parliament sitting at the start of next week while a lot of consent of m.p.'s are going to be up here at conference instead and so all the opposition parties i think is going to use that sort of vacuum if you like inside west in sets of plots out what they're going to do but the only game in town is how they force his hands to make sure they have base lawrence seeks and agrees that extension from the european union and if not next week then certainly i think the week after probably when when when it looks that like the queen's speech is supposed to happen and they will organize a vote of no confidence in him i think which which he will undoubtedly lose the

question is who they put tried to put in instead as a sort of interim leader of a national unity government but he's trying to keep looking like he's in charge of events but he really has no no problem momentum at the moment that's his problem lawrence lee there from manchester or matthew goodwin is professor of politics at the university of kent pace says johnson's brains and strategies been reshaping the conservative party in the u.k. . he's lost a significant number of his own m.p.'s who are unhappy with his aggressive strategy and also his language in the house of commons but at the same time he is going to speak to a conservative party that is broadly united in wanting to deliver grex it as quickly as possible and his strategy or so which is now. reflected in the slogan get it done is going to be both coasts overwhelmingly this week on keeping those

concerns of members on side the vast majority of conservative voters and the overwhelming majority of conservative members are progress but of course what for us johnson is really doing by quite doubling down on this for exit strategy is he is reshaping the conservative party. not only shaping britain's relationship with europe it is also making the conservative party a little bit more pro bracks and what does that mean boris johnson is attracting more working class voters and he's attracting more voters in the north of england in traditionally labor areas and so he's losing some of the more middle class program main voters in the south and fundamentally i would argue he is changing the dynamic of the conservative party electorate. russian police say 20000 people have rallied in moscow calling for the release of jailed opposition activists many being detained unauthorized. mungo's have been detained this

23 year old actor. he was sentenced to 3 of the health years in prison for using violence against the police but. denies the charges his family and friends say he was just a bystander involved in the protests. from moscow. quite a massive poor of support here for people who have been detained during recent rally here in moscow some people even have been sentenced to 3 to 4 years just for attending unsanctioned to have been accused of using violence against the police a lot of people have been saying are trumped up charges most of the opposition figures who also were indeed tangshan because of local elections they were not allowed to run in these elections these protests most of the candidates were also retain they're here now and also asking for support pressuring the government to.

out of prison or people like a 23 year old. young actor who happened to be. in the same location as a rally didn't even have any intention to join the rally now been sentenced to 3 and a half years in prison a lot of people were angry about this and not only about his but also a 21 year old student who was facing many years in prison when the government called for extremist charges not only people from the opposition but also people within the government circles have been very upset and angry about these arrests priests even have come out open letters have been signed by scientists and people from all kinds of professions stressing the government to let the. people go. violence technical failures and disillusionment have had a dramatic impact on afghanistan's presidential election and election commission official says the estimated voter turnout for saturday's vote was just over

$2000000.00 people out of more than half 9 and a half 1000000 voters hundreds of polling stations didn't open or had communications cutoffs nearly 70 attacks across the country killed 5 people and injured hundreds of others bryant has more from kabul. it became obvious during the election day saturday that the turnout was going to be low but these initial figures seem to bear out just how low the turnout has been we have had the initial figures back from the election commission showing that across afghanistan some 4500 polling stations were opened that's 500 less than the country wanted those 500 couldn't open because of security concerns and well over half of those polling stations have now returned figures showing that more than a 1000000 people voted now if you consider that most of these polling stations that

have so far registered their numbers are in the cities where security is higher then we could see even lower returns coming from rural areas where the taliban is stronger so that 2000000 votes could be on the optimistic side even so that is out of a population of 9000000 people who are registered to vote in a country of $30000000.00 plus and this compares with the last election 5 years ago when $8000000.00 people went out to vote nonetheless the afghanistan government is claiming this to be a success that despite all of the predictions of chaos and violence it was able to open polling stations and maintain a certain level of security across the country but despite that many parties here will be wondering just how valid this result can be with so few people voting and the allegations of vote rigging of voter fraud have already started between the major candidates. let's look ahead to day 3 of the world that's less thinks

president donald trump has lashed out as an ongoing impeachment inquiry against him trump called the proceedings brought by house democrats the single greatest scam in american politics the president is alleged by whistleblowers who have pressured ukraine's army to lenski to investigate his political rival joe biden and the gallagher joins us now live from washington d.c. it's a sunday there which means told show day what sort of message is the administration putting out on the talk show circuits well both sides say the republicans and democrats a car are trying to control the narrative as closely as they possibly can so republicans are coming out in defense of donald trump saying this is hearsay and the president didn't do anything wrong one of president trump's close advisers even

saying this is deep state sabotage but for the democrats this is a far simpler and easier to understand issue this is about whether the president abused his office to get dirt on a political rival let's listen to what adam schiff who is the chairman of the house judiciary committee had to say just a short time ago. sometimes the coverup is the easier crime to prove but here yes the cover up is very serious but i don't want to lose sight of that fundamental breach of the president's oath of office the duty to defend our country our constitution and here the president is once again not just inviting but coercing a foreign nation to get involved to try to help him and yet another presidential election so to me that's the most serious set of offenses. when this crisis 1st broke out this seemed to be some confusion in the republican camp there was some notable silences from people like mitch mcconnell how is the republican

party position evolving now i mean it's evolving in the sense that they all basically getting behind the president there are very few dissenting voices mitt romney who is someone that said if this phone call is true it's deeply concerning but he's really only a lone voice that's not to be unexpected the republicans will rally behind their president but for the democrats it's a very different issue this is not like the mahler inquiry this is not a going to be a 2 year investigation and amorphous thing that the american public finds hard to understand this is a very simple issue this is where the president used his power to coerce a foreign leader to get dirt on a political rival even perhaps with holding funds that is something they're going to stay laser focused on even though there are questions now about other conversations the president may after that have been locked away in a super secret service which goes against protocol they want to stay on this one issue because it's easy for the american public to understand that moving at

meet one of the key conditions of that deal which is for this soldiers to lay down their weapons and join the me and my military the why are also fiercely protective of their income streams like jade mining and the illegal wildlife trade many products like tiger and beer teeth are sold openly in the state capital punk come the united states army is also thought to be one of the region's largest manufacturers of illegal drugs a business that says it's no longer in but there are many who believe those who run this area are still stuck in the past and until they open up life will not improve for you i'm in pretty bad here i want want to continue to develop i want to see more people move through here which will improve trade in business in the past 2 or 3 years it's been very bad i can make a so much. state serves as a reminder of how fragmented me and mar is while the syria may be at peace for now it's the people that continue to pay the price of civil war through isolation and

this is the hoofy defense minister in a command center planning to launch an attack inside saudi arabia and coordinating with his forces on the ground. according to the hoofy spokesman it happened on august 25th and lasted for 72 hours. but it specialized infantry units at the front line cordoned a large number of the aggressors personnel and as they managed to set up and. as per the planning forces opened a way to allow the aggressor personnel to step into the ambush booth he's claimed more than $500.00 people were killed and at least 2000 captured some of them were wearing uniforms like this with the saudi national guard logo but many of these prisoners of war are what the who are calling yemeni nationals who have been lured and disillusioned by saudi arabia to fight against the who thinks also on display these armored vehicles which the who sees say belonged to the saudi military.

specialized units cut off the resupply line of the enemy from the east and the west after that the cordon was sealed around this personnel from all sides the infantry units turned the ambush into an all out offensive. there who things have also made several other statements in this video none of which al-jazeera can independently verify meanwhile saudi officials have not responded to this video or the claims made by the who theories but for now this appears to be more evidence that this conflict is likely to pose further challenges for yemen and the region dorsetshire pari al jazeera. so dana is an assistant professor michigan state university and the yemeni activists she says there's a possibility the warring sides will return to the negotiating table. after the iraq war attacks on september 14th which these claimed came from them and the saudis claimed came from iran there's not been independent verification either way

but after those attacks the who these announced that they're willing to stop after their attacks into saudi arabia and if the saudis are willing to end the war and then in the coming days saudi attacked 2 different on you know on 2 separate airstrikes that killed several dozen people in yemen in a sense that millions in number and in a lot less if the who are these are now fighting back and if they're able to take this much you know weaponry and prisoner these many prisoners then perhaps they're able to negotiate with the saudis perhaps the saudis are starting to will start to see them as you know a threat and maybe that would change the outcome of the war. saudi state t.v. is reporting the personal bodyguard of king solomon has been shot dead in the city of jeddah major general abdel aziz and 5 army is reported to have been killed by a friend over a personal dispute the gunman was also shot and killed in

defied the police and marched through hong kong in the 17th week of protests has more. in what has become a weekend pattern here in hong kong protest leaders spread the word about an event through social media and out they come starting with small confrontations that escalate into battles with police pulling out their entire anti-riot arsenal including a water cannon with chemical laced blue dyed water but even though it's become a routine and even though the protesters will eventually get pushed out to some it doesn't matter they say they will keep showing up. you know i really have to care about the success rate of the protesting i never would have started to protest in the beginning is about our demands after all the can't just keep silent let things happen. i the movement started over a bill that would have allowed extraditions from hong kong to mainland china it was permanently show. but the movement grew and intensified mainly because of what

protesters have said is the heavy handed treatment by police as a crackdown on the protests an unauthorized marches for the majority of this on authorized march through central hong kong here the protesters faced little resistance from the police the police were there but there really wasn't any confrontation it was when they got close to the government complex here their final destination where there have been kind of frontlines there's been confrontation and then a push back and then another front line is been established the police just on the other side and that's one of the front lines here on one side of the government complex. to show the protesters do not represent all of hong kong's people a probation group held 2 events across the. retore on sunday a few hours before the march began racing the chinese national and i and in taiwan viewed as a breakaway province by beijing a show of support for hong kong people came out in the pouring rain as part of what's being described as a global anti-authoritarianism day. it's in to support it but the hong kong anti-government protesters will again come out in force on tuesday it's china's

national day marking 70 years since the founding of the people's republic of china the protesters say they were used the occasion to continue their fight against what they say is beijing's move to gain more and more control over their city it's got harder al-jazeera hong kong. now there have been protests in lebanon against the government accused of widespread corruption demonstrators marched through the capital beirut burning tires and blocking roads lebanon's local currency has dropped for the 1st time in more than 2 decades people say living conditions are becoming increasingly difficult. the u.s. president has lashed out as an ongoing impeachment inquiry against him called the proceedings brought by house democrats the single greatest sky in american politics the president is alleged by a whistleblower to have pressured ukraine's the. lens key to investigate is

political rival joe biden and gallacher joins us now live from washington d.c. so what is the message on the sunday talk show rounds. well it depends which party a from the republicans and the democrats are both trying to control the narrative here the republicans saying look this whistleblower report is nothing but his say the president was right to ask you crane to investigate joe biden's son hunter and his connections with an energy company in that country but the democrats say this is a far more simple message a message that the american public can understand and that is did president trump abuse his position of office abuse his power by asking another country to get dirt on a political rival they say it's a pretty clear cut case and these impeachment proceedings are going along at a fairly rapid rate a rate that the republicans and donald trump kong control let's listen to adam schiff he is the chairman of the house judiciary committee this is what he had to

say a short time ago sometimes the cover up is the easier crime to prove but here yes the cover up is very serious but i don't want to lose sight of that fundamental breach of the president's oath of office the duty to defend our country our constitution and here the president is once again not just inviting but coercing a foreign nation to get involved to try to help him and yet another presidential election so to me that's the most serious set of offenses. or i while that was going on is the position of the republican party coming together more they seem to be a little bit of disarray when this whole broke out of. they are now all they were then i should say but now they are rallying behind their embattled president lindsey graham was just on one of the networks here a short time ago saying look this whistleblower report this whistleblower wasn't in the room this is all hearsay despite the fact that the report was given credibility

by the acting director of national intelligence a trump appointee the democrats i think will really want to focus on this phone call between president trump and president selenski of ukraine because they don't want this to become like the miller inquiry to drag on to become this amorphous thing that people can't understand it's a pretty simple issue for the democrats a known political issue they say this is about protecting the very founding principles of this country they say it's a clear cut case that the american public can understand and adam schiff incidentally in the last few hours also said that that whistle blower whose identity we still do not know may be appearing behind closed doors in the next few days. and the gallic thanks so much. still ahead on al jazeera tens of thousands turned out on the streets of moscow as a protest the jailing of opposition activists for years and some in law say his father was signed into one of the secretive armed groups refusing to join the peace
