5:07 am
a responsibility in this electoral fraud. mariano it's when asked about the impact this might have on the country given that we've already seen tensions we've seen on wrist and we're seeing police and troops being deployed to be able to deal with this with these on wrist give us a sense of what's happening inside the country right now. well i think the impact is going very hard. in the streets there or silence ongoing here in the city of latakia series police going back and forth the army chief has said that they will comply the military will help the police to do joint operations and there this is something completely new look because they 9 have said all along that they will be on the sidelines as they would not participate in the framing protesters but things are getting out of hand there's
5:08 am
a lot of attacks not only. not only to. even in the city but is how did it occur to physically leaderless opposition leaders. have been heard whose houses are burned and there are hundreds if not thousands of people that we see in a indeed your sense from the city of a while the way the airport is a people marching with. * * the same calling for civil war and so on things that the people in the moments when they are so frustrated because the leader that has been. there 30 days before they were ready for nearly 14 years is leading the country and many people know that they are some way but others feel that this is is unfair that she's been ousted and so people are enraged and there is a lot of tension in the. 1000000 sanchez joining us. live pas by

fallen will briscoe is program director of latin america and caribbean at the international crisis group he says what happens next in bolivia is uncertain. and there are too many uncertainties at the moment to know whether the legislative assembly will make and here's a temporary acting president tomorrow we don't know whether the deputies who follow the party of ever more hours the man with a tan they have said we need security guarantees to be able to take part in a session and it's at the certain moment where they can be provided after that we need to know when will the election be held bearing in mind that all the election is. what would dissolve. on sunday as a result of the records detecting fraud in the electoral process and they're there to electoral officials have been arrested so there's a question of setting up the electoral system is
5:10 am
a question of its 1000000000 to grandstand and is that the role of a deeper question how are the relations going to be between the opposition which is strong campaign against ever moralism and the and the delmar ellis' supports he still has a very significant support securely in the indigenous communities of this country and it's very likely that this base of support will be most unhappy with what we've seen over the last few days. now turning to chile where protests of once again broken out riot police firing tear gas and water cannon at demonstrators in santiago it comes despite president sebastian pinera plans to rewrite the constitution that's a central demand of the protesters of the current shot of dates back to july pinochet era which many say excludes protections for social rights then years move into the pleasing demonstrators who have been protesting against income inequality for more than 3 weeks in america editor lucy reports from santiago.
5:11 am
the unmistakable sight and sound of the quick chinese national dance. in the same plaza where some travelers largest protests are taking place these people came to remind chileans that there are things that unite them all they feel like this is a decisive time it's making us reflect on what we are and what we want to become we need to feel empowered and also take responsibility for the solutions to our demand the. one of them is a new constitution in nearly 4 weeks of unrelenting protests it's widely being seen as indispensable to pave the way for structural changes to chile's free market system. the current constitution was imposed in 1980 under the pinochet dictatorship. the model of the 1980 constitution hands education health social security and labor relations over to the
5:12 am
private sector the state plays a minimal role so people are feeling abused by a constitution that instead of benefiting the collective needs tends to concentrate resources in a few hands without providing the necessary services. but other experts argue that the current constitution is not to blame rather the laws and public policies that have failed to meet people's needs. i'm not saying this is a new constitution council. but i fear that will be a huge question between people's expectations and the reality of what the constitution came and. after nearly 4 weeks of unrelenting protests it's widely being seen as a necessary step to pave the way for structural changes to chile's free market system. but for many that's no longer enough former presidential candidate. says that must call for early general elections before chile can tackle
5:13 am
a new national charter. but we need to legitimize social changes by turning to our citizens they inevitably and unnecessarily must be consulted actively and that starts by letting them choose who will represent them. the undemocratic origin of chilies current to magna carta is indisputable like a new one will not rectify all the countries wrongs but it may be a good way to start over to boost the tarnish legitimacy of the country's democracy you see in human al-jazeera santiago. hong kong's leader terry lamb has labelled protesters as extremely selfish and so they're trying to paralyze the city the territory's chief executive has addressed media after describing demonstrators as quote the enemy of the people on monday it comes after the city was rocked by one of its most violent days since rallies began 5 months ago
5:14 am
a pro beijing supporter who said he lived as an activist was shot by police with a view to apologize us now from hong kong given what else did kerry lamb have to say. that's right she also criticized the protesters her for trying to disrupt the daily workings of hong kong destructing traffic she also said that arrangements were being made to circumvent the blockades that have been set up including fixing traffic lights and fixing other public public. things that have been damaged by the protesters it was all very much a localized speech speaking to the hong kong people when i asked protesters earlier today whether they would be listening to her they just laughed and the speech also comes off the back of her speech yesterday after one of the most violent days we've seen in the hope all gone protest particularly during the week day where she says it's wishful thinking for the protestors that they think that any kind of violent
5:15 am
action will force the government to listen to them or give in to their demands people who are watching us right now saying that scene behind you just explain to us what you're seeing there and clearly this is being one of the sites for the demonstrations about what we might expect throughout the rest of the day. that's right this is in front of city university that's one of the main universities here in hong kong and earlier today this road was blockaded riot police came in here for tear gas cleared it up got traffic flowing again and once again once they left all the students have come here and set up again at this intersection if you can see as you can say behind me there they are setting up blockade to whatever they can get their hands on that also strewn bricks across the road here to pull them off the sidewalks that were also. broken or attacked i would say the traffic lights they're seeing that so that they could just stop the
5:16 am
traffic as you can see all public transportation also on this road which is quite quite an important intersection here has been stopped now they're carrying on with their barricades they say that they're going to continue their action they're doing this because of what they say is police brutality and also yesterday's incidents where a student who was shot so they say they're doing this in support of the students of hong kong it's worth noting that about 10 universities in hong kong have stopped crosses for the day of their protests and several other universities universities seem to be the focal point of the protests and of the movement of many students very angry at the police actions and very angry at the government's reaction saying that they're not no one's listening to them. also universities have been told to try and discourage their students from taking part in the protests and violence but that doesn't seem to be making a difference people here say today that they are going to continue with the disruptions not only here but across the city do you thank you so much for that.
5:17 am
well there's plenty more ahead on the news hour including crews in australia appearing for what is expected to be a catastrophic. democratic republic of congo are trying to eliminate. the year. the underdog was up against his rival in the. final. at least 7 people have died and 70 more injured after 3 blasts hit a kurdish town in northeastern syria the 2 explosions in the town of chemistry which borders turkey were caused by bombs in a shopping street media says the 3rd exploded near a hotel in history has been the scene of multiple explosions since the start of
5:18 am
turkey's offensive into northern syria one of the figures credited with setting up the white helmets rescue group in syria has been found dead james the most was the founder of mayday rescue that's a group which helped train the volunteers in what was officially called the syrian civil defense and investigation is being launched after his body was found he's home in central istanbul the white helmets have been credited with saving thousands of people in rebel held areas during years of bombing now he's being remembered by karen pierce u.k. ambassador to the united nations. humanitarian the causes of death at the moment. we will be looking very closely to see how the investigation goes. we'll be able to investigate family and i'm sure will will want to give them any assistance they might require i do just want to take the opportunity to say. that the russian challenges against him that came out at the foreign ministry that he
5:19 am
was. turkey's interior ministry says the country has begun a program to repatriate captured eisel fighters an american and a german were deported on monday with a danish national expected to follow fighters from ireland france and the netherlands are said jawad to be deported in the coming days officials say just over $1200.00 us will fight as it currently being held in turkish prisons a dutch court has ordered the netherlands to repack create more than 50 children of women who joined arsenal in syria 23 women had asked the court to allow their families to return home from the our whole camp in northern syria but as lawrence lee reports from the hague the judge ruled the mothers need not be sent back figuring out what to do with women and children associated with the enemy isn't a new problem for a country but when you bring i still into the equation it becomes hugely controversial. at issue in the netherlands what to do about $23.00 dutch women and
5:20 am
their $56.00 children under the age of 12 many born in the vast desperate el whole camp in northern syria their families have demanded they be brought home the government had said no thanks excel than i was even a kindler and for ordering in his ruling the judge demanded that the dutch state had achieved see to show it was trying to repatriate the children and their mothers to if the kurdish come command has said so and all within 14 days so if the kurdish resort authorities say we're only willing to give back the children if the dutch authorities also take back the women then that's the way it has to be and that has been the kurdish position until now they won't give any children unless the mothers are also brought back among the women there is child who was a little girl was as innocent looking as anyone but the family say she suffered mental health issues growing up was targeted by eisel supporters in the netherlands and persuaded to go to syria to be a bride so
5:21 am
a fighter and this is chatty and now she lost a foot in the explosion but she doesn't have children and so she's stuck her family a devastated we had her passport when we saw that she was running for 2nd travel to syria for the possible to wait for yes of course every family did the dutch government don't get their responsibility again they said yes there are dare it's not our problems and it's very hard to to hear that so what might the dutch government do now putting the onus on the dutch authorities to go into northern syria to get these women and children out is one thing whether the dutch are actually prepared to do it themselves is something else again because they've always said it's too dangerous but the americans have in some a sense of that they're prepared to go into al hole to perform the task for them very likely then that the dutch will be trying to outsource their own problem. the big problem in any number of european countries is public opinion which overwhelmingly insists anyone who went to syria within the last 5 years exactly
5:22 am
what they were doing and should lose their rights assuming they are brought home the next question will be what to do with them closely al-jazeera the hague the un's atomic watchdog has confirmed iran is increasing its enrichment of uranium breaking its commitments to the 2015 nuclear agreement the international atomic energy agency confirmed enrichment is taking place at iran's underground further plant one of the most significant breaches of the deal to days the e.u. says it is extremely concerned about the violation with us president donald trump pulled out of the iran nuclear deal in 2018 and then restarted imposing sanctions against iran in by iranian president hassan rouhani told his country's atomic energy organization to start rolling back its commitments under the deal in july of tehran said it planned to cross in richmond limits and confirmed it was stockpiling more low enriched uranium than was allowed under the agreement last week iran
5:23 am
declared that it was enriching uranium to 5 percent now that's a level that means it can be used for nuclear power and he's in excess of the limit outlined in the 2015 deal hillary mann leverett is a former u.s. state department official she says this is a calculated move by terra. i think it's intended by iran to raise the stakes intended to force the united states to force the european union to force even china and russia to take iran situation much more seriously keep in mind that no other country not even iraq under saddam hussein in the 1990 s. after it had made it quaid not even iraq was under such crippling sanctions that iran is under even iraq then was able to sell its oil for food iran can't even do that so what iran is doing is an attempt to force the international community not just the european union but the united states and even china and russia to take iran situation more seriously and in some ways it has we have seen the french move
5:24 am
to increase its negotiating position we've seen the japanese we've seen even the united states and the united arab emirates move more toward a negotiated settlement with iran it's still very far off and it's a high cost high risk game but i think it's one iran thinks it must do to break the same sounds 1st warnings being issued in eastern australia as wildfires a breach of containment laws and spreading quicker than officials expected being fanned closer to sydney's outskirts by high winds and rising temperatures the sydney region has been designated catastrophic danger both new south wales and queensland have disclosed states of emergency fire crews say the winds are already sparking new blazes up to 600 schools have been closed across the area well andrew thomas joins us now from sydney and drew catastrophic conditions is the description what are you saying. well catastrophic is the highest level that
5:25 am
authorities have to describe the conditions that a 6 point scale catastrophic is as bad as it gets and what it means is that fires happen they're going to get out of control very very quickly and there's really very little of thirty's can do to stop them now that level is based largely on weather and it's going to get extremely hot high thirty's right across large parts of new south wales particularly on tuesday it's already above 30 temperatures rising all the time the wind as you can see as well is really picking up already across much of this state it's gusting it's 8090 kilometers an hour and then there is just the issue of drought that there has been going on here for such a long time which means there's lots and lots of what they call fuel load on the ground dry trees dry bushes that haven't had any more sure in them for a very very long time so all that fuel is just ready to burn in the high winds there's very little throats can do to stop spiers once they start now there were already 50 fires burning right across new south wales when chews they began largely
5:26 am
fires that began last week in similar conditions that were under control but already on tuesday 5 of those fires have got out of control and there are now emergency warnings that have been issued for people living anywhere near them authorities have told them it's too late to leave their homes they shouldn't travel they should hunker down and wait for the fire to pass already north of here there's a very serious situation but equally there's the issue of new fires starting in these windy conditions power lines can fall for example that can start a new fire and then there is the very real risk that those fires spread much quicker than authorities can put them out and that's the concern in populated areas particularly the suburbs of sydney where i am already just in the last hour here there are 3 small fires at the moment burning in the suburbs of western sydney and the concern as i say is that the wind picks up on those fires spread to the embers of those fires further and starts more than the authorities can control is the chief of the rural fire service explaining how this works. under these sorts of
5:27 am
conditions there is a significant amount of unpredictability instability and aggressive far behavior and fast bred you we know that under $100.00 days of catastrophic if our starts and takes hold if we are not there so quickly that we can bring it under control if it takes hold we are not going to stop it we are not going to control fires and a catastrophic conditions might have the ability to develop and grow extremely quickly and develop into very large fires and you mentioned the weather and how windy it is and of course the potential for new fires as well so what's the forecast moving forward. well over the course of today it's all going to get hotter and only get windy and late on tuesday there's likely to be a change in the wind direction although that might sound like something that might put out the fires push them back on themselves in fact what that can do is it can widen our fire front so there's a very real danger that overnight tuesday into wednesday the fires will get that
5:28 am
much worse and in coming days and indeed weeks there's no forecast whatsoever for rain which is what's really really needed and in fact the temperatures going towards the end of this week and into next week will be almost as high as on tuesday so there's a real issue going into summer we're not even in summer yet in australia it's still spring there's a real issue that these fires could get worse as time goes on now you heard there the fire chief really telling people what they should be doing what they can't do because it's too late to do it part of their message is that on the one hand they're trying to fight fires or at least contain them but on the other a big part of their job is to warn people to tell people what they should and shouldn't do because largely speaking this country is so huge your thirty's can't possibly be everywhere at once or help everybody impacted by parts of they're saying to people you've been warned you need to look after yourselves and that means act as early as possible and in part that's what all these warnings are about now and who told us live from sydney thank you. still ahead on al-jazeera
