but i told them but i'm really in jail. so who are you here at 6 in the morning. do you. but the. global t.v. also rare since 5 in the morning when they came with their subpoena. that's what i wanted to tell you. i was boring city. so i left there with 7 years old to come to style powell i was brought up by a mother and her father. who are born in their father in this land and i said always 1979. political allusion that i had. last. week 4 of the workers. and there were lucian

of the working class and the workers over a sale. the only fear that i had. is that fair to lie to their working people who believed so much amy. who led me to her percentage of this country everything that life that i owe to my mother. who was born and died in the slums in there for bella. to bury you knew. i was there director of a school. with 1902 than. i was i'm not illiterate also so that had mastered of a school. and in this iranian. my politics are

formation and. political sciences. working at the union. and the 1st time they announced my name only. and they were going to give me the microphone i began shaking. in 1975. when i started and they asked me to. be taken with me to hold steady their piece of paper i was shaking. fear saying things that were not. right. when i left. this place i had amnesia. i was caught in a solitary cell. for 418 days i prepared myself spiritually.

ready not to have farishta vengeance. i prefer not to hate. to give you proof of others because i wanted to show that after. they put me in jail i went to sleep with a clear conscience. to. phone you know that this stuff. you. know he saw there was a narrowing of speech yesterday. they made a confession. so. fast . i knew.

if you did. that he said that if. you did you'd posted. something of a lie against phenomenon that either. there is some of the same thing nearby. to be here which you completely. and. if you can. if there is a program running with a microphone and i don't know how it went to the list. let us be patient. because if i was in jail for 502

days and i had no one to talk to. and now i want to. cry for joining us on this song is there. newshour with been watching brazil's former president lula da silva addressing members of his workers' party his supporters in his hometown of sound we're not allowed to come pour a day after he was freed after spending more than 18 months in prison the left wing former leader was greeted of course by his supporters today he walked out of jail on friday he was held in a prison in a sit in a prison in 2 in the city of cruelty back on corruption charges speaking to his supporters for the 1st time at the workers' party members of the workers' party a day after he was released let's bring in some cohen now is a journalist covering brazil and he is via skype from sao paolo thank you very much for being with us talking about his time in prison there and about the corruption charges against him his release comes at

a highly polarized time in brazilian politics how do you see this event this release even if might be a temporary one affecting the current political scene in brazil. well this is an event that will be celebrated by lulu's the orses and overall 'd left in brazil and it is an event which will be highly criticized. by his political opponents and the rights in brazil we already see so it's basically a moment which is set to further poller polarize zillion politics in brazil right now that's not what lula wants to travel the country preaching a message a conciliatory message to try and reduce this great polarization that brazil has seen pretty much since 20132014 growing polarization here

but this is definitely though a moment that will at least in the sure cause 'd greater polarization lou lice there will be very much loved by his supporters 'd that a man that changed the face of the country as a man that changed the face of brazil is credited with lift the millions of people out of poverty by his detractors and news corp only and also accusing him of festering a cultural political corruption. just listening to him now speak out in his hometown his feeling vindicated his supporters and him a feeling vindicated after his supreme court ruling and as you say he's going to go on in and try to campaign but can he really shake off this image of corruption that's dollops the workers' party and now can he be invigorated presence leftist opposition. well that's the great challenge right now for linda so. at the end of the day quite frankly lula's real our core 'd supporters will always

love it like i said this is a man that changed the face of brazil is a man that whose policies are credited with lifting millions of the full hours for policy and catapulting brazil on to the world stage and no members of the workers' party and looters by will will never forget that will never turn their backs on him that said his legacy has been tarnished somewhat in recent years when he left the presidency he had a new yet 90 percent approval rating today he is a more polarizing figure in brazil he's rejected by you know more than 50 percent of the population but he still very much loved by at least a 3rd of the population so whether he can go on to. you know the bigger great brazilian leftist politics that's a challenge that remains to be seen and it's for so many boards it's enormous we

don't know how long exactly that he will be out of jail yes a lot of cases against him and the governing coalition is. looking to change legislation basically that would see here his conviction standing again that would have him sent back to jail it's important to note he hasn't been pardoned for the case that sent him to jail even though it was an extremely controversial case you know who lost a lot sort of rush proceedings. a very very controversial case indeed that he was since jail for however he hasn't been pardoned and the a supreme court normal was simply reversed and now the governing coalition are looking to have the norm that was previously established made into part of the constitution. so we don't know how long it will remain a free will by now but at least today and at least in the coming weeks this will be

a real. moment all. leftist parties especially the workers all. soon with the stream me if you are remains extremely solid president thank you very much for speaking to us. addresses his members members of his workers party in his hometown of palo. we're not at a camp i should say south of san paolo let's bring in our teresa ball is not far from where. we saw huge crowds behind you are there as it is addresses his addressing members of the workers' party what is his message a day after he was released from prison. well it's a very emotional day for many people here we have to pull away i'm not sure if you can see there's an ambulance but after that there are huge huge crowds of people that have come here to see all of the few about this is not only his hometown this

is the place where before he was arrested he came here to say goodbye to his people people did not want him to be taken to prison and now he's back he's been speaking about why he was enough is he said that he prepared himself spiritually in order to do that when he come out is not filled with hate comparing himself with joy you also not all who he says has a hate speech he's also been talking about how he's back and he said that he's back that he's ready to fight and this is precisely the question of what will lower the silver do from now on he 74 years old and the people we have been talking to here say that they want him to be the leader of the opposition once again they want him to be a candidate in the presidential elections in 2022 because they believe that he's the one that can unite the left but he's the one. that and challenge the government of the lasix trimly popular especially among these people they see the mass of

people to man they see him as a man that lifted millions out of poverty they believe that the corruption scandal that has involved him has been a lie has been a conspiracy by a georgia very famous judge here in brazil said is your mortal who's whose impartiality during this trial has been questions after a recording came out exposing his relationship with a pure security involved in the last case just as we're seeing all versed people here we also know that all of the other parts of brazil there are many who are not happy with what is happening today they're afraid that the supreme court's ruling that allowed to come out of prison will also allow other members of the workers' party and other parties in brazil to. come out of prison they're afraid about impunity and that's also we're hearing there's going to be another protest later today in sao paolo against corruption and against the supreme court's ruling thank you very much for that. for us in sabra not

a company just south of san pablo thank you in other world news at least 4 people have died during clashes in baghdad this comes amid reports iraqi security forces are moving in to protest sites in the city just hours ago prime minister abdul mahdi said the country must be allowed to return to normal tens of thousands of people have been protesting for weeks now angry about a lack of basic service is a rising unemployment and corruption natasha good name has more from baghdad. with the work week slated to begin on sunday morning it's clear security forces are intent on confining the protests to talk we are square that has been the epicenter of the protests in baghdad but they're trying to avoid is a repeat of what happened this week on one particular day 40 major roads were closed creating havoc across the capital's pools were closed the courts were closed many government offices were closed people couldn't get to work what we've been

precondition set by russia to revive peace talks that have been stalled for over 3 years but reservations remain on both sides of the road. in 2016 when the decision was taken with did withdraw here but then everybody was moving forward to the positions we lived so the ukrainian side reacted adequately and took its previous positions so if the enemy does not fulfill their obligations we'll return to our positions which we have just lived. over the years fighting continued despite several cease fire agreements ukraine has accused russia of inciting violence and backing the separatists with military and financial support that russia has always denied is on friday the international court of justice in the hague decided to investigate these claims made by ukraine since president followed amusin lenski took office in kenya p. has reached out to russia to end the war he has spoken on the phone with president vladimir putin and there was

a high profile prisoner exchange in september but the ukrainian president has faced protests at home and accusations that he is handing over the east to russia the peace process involves elections and a special status for us troops are now the. 3 days to complete their withdrawal then the area will be cleared of mind the ball is now in moscow's court and while zelinsky has been trying to revive the so-called normandy talks between ukraine russia france and germany moscow has been reluctant to commit but while there are differences about the advantages of a peace deal on both sides some say the chances of success are better than they have been for a long time step class and al-jazeera moscow. amount germany is marking 30 years since the fall of the berlin wall a pivotal moment in history which are shit in the end of communism in eastern europe german chancellor angela merkel use the anniversary to urge european leaders

to defend democracy and freedom and stand up for human rights was separated communist rolled east berlin from the capitalist west and a year after it came down germany was reunified the anniversary celebrations culminated in a concert at the brandenburg gate to feel him and wouldn't of too many people became a victim of the east german ruling party dictatorship we will not forget them i remember the people who were killed here at the wall because they were looking for freedom i also remember the 75000 people who were imprisoned because they tried to flee the country i remember the people who suffered from her profession because the relatives flued i remember the people who were spied on and denounced. let's go live now to dominate caine his in berlin and so 13 years after the fall of the berlin wall dominic what is the feeling amongst many germans as they mock this very dramatic emotional and historical point in time. there's

a fateful moment 30 years ago. when that wave of people power swept across the berlin wall because they'd been told by they all 4 of these that the borders would be open because it was the people in power go allowed it to happen well out of the wall to be toppled the ceremony behind me as a festival music speeches from leading politicians that sort of thing the theme being celebration of that moment and also a commemoration of all those who died trying to flee the east trying to get over the wall interesting lee hearing that speech by. use the to remember that i'm going to merkel herself is east german and she like so many people on that night the november 9th of november 30 years ago joined that wave of people walking into west berlin so for her clearly a very poignant moment as she in charge of this country as she has been this

reunited country as she has been now for almost 15 years. celebration and euphoria at the time and we're seeing that in the commemorations now bots dominate 30 years on how are those days being remembered now. well when you put that question to many east germans there is a degree of ambiguity in their response they say yes of course it was great that the wall came down it was great that the countries could reunite that reunification could happen but at what cost so certainly if you look at the economic factors as well right now it is no question about it the g.d.p. of the east is 8182 percent of what it is in the west salaries are considerably lower in the east than they are in the west indeed they are now lower further apart from their western counterparts than that than they have been a toll in this century the best part of 20 years and that explains why many people

in east germany a sizeable number millions of people have been voting for parties of the far left and the far right certainly in the last 4 years we've seen the rise of the far right party the alternatif is it for germany which has a particular stronghold in parts of the east because they say this this vend as the germans call it the the change when communism fell hasn't delivered on the promises that the west german politicians made back in 1990 so certainly east germans are happy that their country could reunite but they are asking searching questions about whether east germany has actually received the benefits that it was promised it would receive way back just after the wall fell. thank you very much dominate came with all the latest from balin as those commemorations continue. after the fall of the wall. we're going to bring you much more from london

carlo we've got some rain in the forecast for the middle east over the next couple days but some pieces of cloud just around the caspian sea sliding a little further southwards over towards the high ground so afghanistan another area clapp think this is going to be the most active area cloud just around iran this sinking is way further southwards we could see some flooding in one or 2 spots and i was was the levant since last 5 and tries decent spells of sunshine still in place here at 28 celsius and by rights over the next couple of days a similar temperature for baghdad and for kuwait city snow just a little further east over towards afghanistan more than possible. clouds there's some possibility of want to see showers just rolling through here but as i said charles has some rather large showers just around the gulf spilling out solve iran

and even here in qatar we may will see some showers along dispose of rain as we go through sunday see a few spots of friday they will punch their way right the way across into central areas of saudi arabia we could see some localized flooding is certainly something to watch out for the u.a.e. yeah there's some shells in the forecast for you as well to be just getting up to around 28 or 29 celsius then over the next couple of days money does look a little clearer for the most part but still a fair amount of cloud for northern parts of saudi arabia. dreams john and entertainments a way for people to rise above the violence around so it's my role to give these girls a different idea that they can leave the ruins of this community 3 short films show how moments creates a home and family and gives hope and opportunity. a.j.

selects on al-jazeera. one of the really special things about working for al-jazeera is that even as a camera woman i get to have so much employed in contribution to a story as feel we cover this region better than anyone else would be foolish is you know it's very challenging living in particular because you have a lot of people that are deployed on political issues. with the people who believe to tell the real story i'll just mended used to do the work indeed journalism we don't feel inferior to the audiences across the globe.

and watching the news on al-jazeera a reminder of our top stories this hour brazil's former president lula da silva has been holding a rally in his hometown of sovereign out of the company talking to members of his workers party just one day after being released from prison a judge ordered to sell this release after a high court ruling he spent 19 months in jail corruption. in iraq at least 4 people have died in clashes in baghdad this comes amid reports iraqi security forces have moved in to protest sites in the city just hours ago prime minister not involved to announce electoral reforms in the coming days and india's supreme court has ruled that a disputed religious site at ayodhya will be handed to a government appointed board of trustees to build a hindu temple the court said al tentative land will be set aside for a mosque. now u.n. experts say it is highly probable an air strike on a migration detention center in libya was carried out by

a country routinely supplying weapons to warlord honey for half talk the attack in july. near the capital tripoli killed more than 50 people and injured more than 130 others the details emerge in a draft report seen by al jazeera it also names the united arab emirates jordan and sudan as violating a u.n. arms embargo on libya by supplying have task forces mahmud abdel wahab has more from tripoli it says that a foreign power supporting the warlord who for have to do most of probably involved in. attacking this detention center remember that around 53 migrants were killed in that airstrike back in july and have to his forces at that time admitted that they targeted that detention center in that neighborhood but the fact that the government of national called is accusing her forces of committing war crimes and also blames the united nations security council for mart condemning clearly have to

us forces and also for not taking action against the contras involving in via involved in violating the arms embargo on libya as you know that the united arab emirates is one of the 1st contras supporting have to in fact it has an established about 40 years ago in the eastern city of emerge east of the city of one of the and it has supported have to do with the advance of dirt fighter jets and drawings that have been taken part in all the battles led by have to in the east and the south and also in tripoli starting from april now as speaks more about this to marty who's the founder and director of the sadeq institute that's the 1st public policy think tank in libya he's on skype from london thank you so much and ask for being with us on the news hour have you seen or heard anything new in this report that we didn't know or didn't suspect already. well that we didn't see from all of

your posts look up list since 2015 the seems to be one hell of a how to respond to the 2nd civil war and here is again it will spark in the 3rd civil war and i think that's the danger here is that there's nothing new under the sun what this report reveals in terms of foreign assistance and i mean if you have got the other reports about what a leader countries like the making of egypt that in addition to france's role diplomatically that has been blocking that criticism blocking that penalty and blocking the sanction for violence in the arms embargo because they will serve the people in the hostility since they will when the forces were revealed that would support a company is launching. that off the table but want to so dangerous about this is also the use of our messages now that have been certainly separatists and georgia we defense reporting in the centrals that we have all jumped up well in the last 2

months russian mercenaries from the back. to the fighting over the last month going to goes further because people want every principle new like will to be voted to me as an integrating foreign drones from the place that your reporter mahmoud mentioned earlier on from the effect of this the last 4 years now the danger here is not that these revelations are anything new or even old but what will the u.n. security council be hundreds of elections right that's that they. will get to then just a moment i want to ask you about the point on the foreign mercenaries interesting the i mean when they talk about you know 4 foreign countries violating the arms embargo interesting me the report says a impacts all foreign armed coast to the outcome of the conflict in libya is limited would you agree with that. well in terms of the humanitarian footprint and the dangers that it has fallen for those living in tripoli what we do said it's limited it's only enough to protect the conflict that's the danger here is that conflicts that protected the more dangerous now decisive conflicts because

attracted long wars of attrition leave behind thousands and this place that we look at the city about us you know witness the war that if i have to move in 2014 and promise that it's a weeks it's actual you know it was an almost a quarter of at least 100000 people were displaced from that city in a 2nd kind of body in a close voice if you have not enough accruals or of the population of a city where you that that in general it's nice that's the danger of protect the conflict about whether those are going to be decisive it's about the humanitarian side of the conflict goes to the citizens of those cities so realistically that and ask what can this free forsooth. well there are little i think the danger here is that we're not seeing the massive massive elephant in the room which is that libya could be the example of really where the international community and the system that governs those countries together the multilateral system of the u.n. that was supposed to preserve global peace has actually failed and be broken by the

libyan intervention has been broken by the libya concept that we go back to it will let's remember that helicopter sparked this war in the presence of the head of the u.n. an attorney of the 10 of us on his 1st trip to libya and he left it in 24 hours without mentioning helicopters name the danger here is that we realize that there was so much support being given to an outlaw to run against someone that has been charged by the military courts and the 70 people certainly for the last 4 years and his name cannot really cannot be mentioned by the head of the u.n. and i think the danger here is the kind of doctor knows this and that is that he's writing this and if we look at other investigations that have been done what's been revealed in the report is only the tip of the iceberg you know really factors and the national the national arm has been sharing the documentation of these war crimes but the last 4 years for sure it's for locks you know and that's on the back well also to intimidate his opponents and send the same signal he did when he launched that offensive and from about that incident which is that no one can stop

me not even the u.n. to intimidate the local opponents libya and the libyan citizens that he's the one that makes angles at the u.n. thank you so much for a insight and joining us from london. that cats and separatists have been holding a rally in boston known ahead of spain's general election on sunday from on this let's go back to my ma in ireland the new center. $37000000.00 spanish voters are going to be heading to the polls now for the 2nd time this year after promise a pederast sanchez who won the most votes in the election in april failed to form a government after those negotiations collapsed while following the story how the abdulhamid joins us live now from barcelona and it looks like a very crowded scene behind you there what is the atmosphere like ahead of this vote and how heavily is the catalan independence challenge going to feature in this election. but make no mistake the.

issue really has been the dominant topic not only in this election but in the previous one earlier this year that happened in april now the what's happening today is that officially this is a reflection according to the spanish electoral political leaders allow that what's happening behind me is not a political act more like a festival. states there's been a lot of music there's been sort of a lot of intertainment all around but still a very clear message to people who do support independence who want to make their voices heard and on this last few hours really before elections they're standing here on to see that to say it's very peaceful that we haven't seen actually any police presence whatsoever in this area where there are thousands and thousands of people i cannot give you any official figure at this stage but this is the

country's full selection in 4 years i mean how likely is it that the country can emerge from this current deadlock because it looks as though the unrest in catalonia will just continue to cause a shadow of a country. asked that question many times today every time through was the. say the day after the election will be exactly like the day before the election nothing will have changed the stalemate that has been paralyzing this coach one could argue since 2017 ever since his independence movement has got very huge impetus is still there the problem is that the caretaker prime minister researches could very well become a game the prime minister after this election sites that leave the city and the difficulties in forming a governing coalition are still very much there so everyone i spoke to today said

they had no hope or they didn't believe that actually this election will bring anything different and certainly will not sort of. break this deadlock 4 that the country has been facing and thanks very much for joining us there from barcelona where that rally of castle and supper says is taking place at a general election on sunday well i'll have more on that story for you and everything else in about 20 minutes time we'll see with much more from london now back to funny thank you very much we'll see you a bit later group of chains has openly defied president sebastian pinera straight of a crackdown on violent protests masked demonstrators set fire to a university in newton a church in the capital santiago but he sighed tear gas and water cannon a protester who responded by flowing rocks the demonstrations began over a hike in metro fares but have spiraled into anger against the government's economic policies more than 20 people have been killed in nearly 2000 injured over
