q thank you. now moving on to other news and there are even clashes in lebanon between hezbollah supporters and anti-government protesters in beirut the scuffles prompted riot police to intervene to try to defuse the situation well some of the scuffles broke out on thursday night at the same side in the city center hundreds of thousands of people have been demonstrating for the past 9 days let's go to our correspondent stephanie decker who is monitoring all these developments for us from beirut beirut and interesting development one that we have seen a little bit off in the last few days stephanie where we do have supporters of hezbollah interrupting sometimes clashing with the wide anti-government protests and their movement. that's right well you can probably hear the voices being played it was the loud speakers here to listen to what he has to say. than half an hour. or to. the square in front of the government is just

a couple of 100 meters away around the corner from the mosque. clashes they started throwing stones sticks and people were terrified there were injuries the riot police managed to get in between the situation. but certainly it is it fear that people have it's still early days in the often new numbers usually he's. saying secure general of hezbollah is a totally rejects what happened in this is where he says action be taken against the. orders but certainly a lot of anger here because what the protesters are saying is that they are saying they're you know quite when it comes at this is an economic issue why are you standing against us so a lot of politics at play this is something that people not being very afraid of here these protests. that there's always been if they are that whatever party and they're very the players but of course the phenomenal political and military forces but there are others. it would send their people their men to the streets to cale's

so we've seen a touch of the certainly at the moment it's common to see the reaction to the speech is distancing himself but. he does look real with the protesters in the sense that the government should go. with its allies the most powerful force in this country at the moment so again these are unpredictable toyotas and there's a lot of fear among the protesters that these kinds of incidents can continue and as good. as stephanie echoing what president michel aoun said yesterday which is that you know the regime the government cannot be toppled from the streets of heard from the prime minister we've heard from the president the protests are continuing so what is the government's plan now doesn't even have one. well there are these economic reforms this market that the prime minister laid out that included what exactly is my little. girl minister. none of them taxing the people

but the message from the people in. the army is around here is the message to the people is that this is not enough why because these are the man that have got the country to this place is the basis that have been around for decades and they want that to change we're at a stalemate between the government and the people they got one predictable we're going to have to wait and see how things play out stephanie thank you for that for now that stephanie deca keeping a very close eye on the developments for us and beirut thank you. now a car bomb in the northeast in syria has killed at least one person and left dozens injured its 3rd attack inside in that region and 3 days it comes as the u.s. is sending its troops to help protect syrian oilfields from foreign back into the hands of isis fighters president trump called for american forces to be withdrawn 2

weeks ago when i spoke to our correspondent osama bin job and he's joining us live from shonen or for me at the turkish syrian border another day and another car bomb there assad what can you tell us. well as the situation remains fluid on the ground there has been fighting in the last 24 hours on the outskirts of this so-called peace own established by turkey the safe zone and to the peacekeeping operation spans about 30 kilometers deep inside syrian territory and as you mentioned there have been attacks inside this area 3 days in a row this bombing coming on the outskirts of tel aviv again nobody's claimed responsibility but turkish military sources in the previous attacks have been blaming these attacks on. the kurdish fighters who turkey brands as terrorists on the outskirts there's also been fighting between these forces backed by turkey as well as the syrian democratic forces the kurdish fighters who are now also

according to reports being backed by the bashar al assad government so it is a tense situation on the ground although we are in the 150 hour window which was agreed upon by turkey and russia to allow kurdish fighters to leave these areas according to moscow some kurdish fighters have left their positions but sources on the ground are telling us there that many of them are staying put and they haven't left these positions turkey has reiterated its stance that it is going to come in by force if these fighters do not leave and so what's happening on the diplomatic front to avoid further clashes. what we've been hearing from the turkish president in the last 24 hours reiterating his his appeal to his own people to words of warnings towards the kurds and also towards his western allies and that's something that's been echoed by the foreign minister the softer noon as well who said that the european parliament should bear in mind that turkey bears the largest burden of refugees and it's easy to make

statements but difficult when you've got these refugees on your shores also there have been another development regarding the the leader of the kurdish fighters general. who turkey calls the who he's a turkey says is a wanted terrorist according to the turkish government saying that the defense ministry has written to the u.s. government very interesting lee we've been hearing multiple calls from u.s. senators and people in the u.s. government trying to both. of the 2 words the united states and expedite is visa process turkey saying that he's a wanted terrorist who against him a red notice by interpol has been issued and he should be arrested as he does the united states so it is a very rapidly changing situation both on the battle front on the diplomatic front with turkey is trying to get maximum leverage as it can in this 150 hour window which expires on tuesday

a summer thank you for that osama bin job with all the latest live and shanower thank you. now algeria as anger towards the ruling government isn't showing any sign of subsiding with thousands back on the streets for the 36th friday demonstrators continue to demand the government remove anyone linked to former president out there is the lizzie's with a flicker who resigned in april army leaders say the december election is now the only way to come the protests but activists say a fair vote won't be able to take place while beautifully his allies are in power. to zimbabwe now where schools offices and colleges the shut for one day to protest against international sanctions the ruling zanu p.f. party is holding a rally it's blaming u.s. and e.u. sanctions for choking zimbabwe's economy well several companies and politicians have been under international embargo since 2002 so let's take

a closer look at those sanctions that were 1st imposed almost 2 decades ago when robert mugabe was president the u.s. and e.u. sanctions were spurred by the takeover of land owned by white farmers along with human rights violations a crackdown on elect. monitors and political opponents with sanctions imposed on businesses and individuals including arms and financial embargo freezing of foreign assets and travel bans they continue to have an impact on zimbabwe the government blames the sanctions for creating an economic crisis this lasted for years in march the us ignored course to lift the sanctions instead extending them for another year . well let's get more on this we're joined by derek matty zagg a governance consultant and he's joining us live from the capital harare very good to have you with us on on al-jazeera so the government whether it's president man and god or his predecessor president mugabe have blamed these international sanctions for zimbabwe's economic problems now that's not what the u.s.

the e.u. say in the opposition the opposition say that the government is using these sanctions to actually deflect from its own management of the country so how much do you think the sanctions are to blame for zimbabwe's economic problems. the sanctions are very the economic impact on zimbabwe has is very very limited although the government continually says that the sanctions are imposed on zimbabwe as a country and although they are theoretically targeted that the poor are affected the most it's very clear that the sanctions are actually targeted against listed individuals in the case of the united states then on a specially designated nationals there's about 83 people individuals on that list there are about 20 farm enterprises and about 34 entities on the united states list the government rather carefully avoids mentioning that the e.u.

basically lifted sanctions against all the listed individuals bar one or 2. in about 2016 so there's only travel bans on acid free to the moment against grace from a god be and enterprise called zimbabwe defense industries so to say that there's some sort of trade embargo against them bob we are very much needing of course the sanctions were imposed more or less the same time as the land invasion and the so-called land redistribution program took place in zimbabwe that collapsed large scale commercial agriculture so the the sanctions regime coincided with. those land invasions which is basically at the heart of the economic collapse but of course that was then used as an excuse by the government to say that the sanctions had in fact. cause and is causing the economic

problems in zimbabwe because of the synchronicity between the land invasion and the the sanctions regime there was but some of the estimates that what does the government in a need to do to get its economy back on track what would you advise them to do and this new government up to the task. well it's very difficult to see a way out of the economic problems in zimbabwe at the moment because of the the depth of the economic hole that was left by robert mugabe when president. came into power it's a deep hole that someone on guard where has to climb out of so the problems that one guard and zimbabwe are facing at the moment is really jew 2 difficulties that were put in place by the mcgarvie regime unfortunately the difficulties have

been exacerbated by the 1st year drought devastating drought in the last rainy season and by in demick corruption amongst the political elites in zimbabwe where you have the economic chaos the politically connected the elite was able to make money from that chaos and that of course were some the situation but somebody who finds itself and that's not his act thank you very much for your time on this we do appreciate it that's derek mass effect live and a zimbabwe in capital well let's stay with the story because i correspond and how to metastasize also joining us live from had already it isn't government that rally when the government has certainly made it as easy as possible for people to take part today. well they didn't want to ride the bus didn't many people as the political need to pay political polls to use some of the cars people typing to get paid in the paper these are the government's way of

trying to get people to come to the stadium. to put the public building codes which has just been some political event that the government department of work local told it is a popular holiday but try and dictate it because what will be provided but i might say the stadium was hot here not people came but people saying. we knew the. kind of free music monday by the government. that he wanted to make there that sanctions are harmful they sold the body and leave the light not meet you popcorn struggling it became take mine. take mine did it blindly hate it probably punk even though it would be a way of showing the region not an act. that. a lot of the bobby don't believe that matter the only revenge was the bobby frightening event how does thank you for that live in her body. now fos
