a family in the occupied west bank about their ordeal. now a volcano off the coast of new zealand has a ruptured as tourists were visiting at least one person has died up to 50 people including tourists from a cruise ship were on white highland when the volcano sent a plume of smoke and ash thousands of metres into the air rescuers say it's currently too dangerous to go to the site you zealand's deputy police commissioner says 23 people made it off the island but many remain unaccounted for some of these people have been transported to shore however there's a number still remaining on the oil who are currently unaccounted for. i can confirm there's one fatality and based on information we have is likely to be more

now speaking at an emergency briefing new zealand's prime minister just under a durned confirmed to a group tour groups rather world on the island at the time of the eruption we know already that there were a number of tourists on or around the island at the time both new zealanders and visit is from overseas i know there will be a huge amount of consume and saudis for those who have loved ones on or around the island at the time and i can assure them police are doing in everything they can i speak now to shannon red soles and all clinch is a reporter with news new zealand good to have you with us let's start with the people of all the missing been accounted for by now i know some more than huff of the people but it's said to have been on the island at the time messing and you heard that deputy police commissioner say 23 people have been rescued off the

island which could leave up to 27 people that could still baby and now makes it it's too dangerous for search and rescue and place to heed to the elements and quite a few more. help they are doing so when they say it's too dangerous does that mean this eruption is still very much active right now. i think the biggest concern is the ash that is around and it really has all of the powered vision and terms of trying to get to the on the edge of local. volcanic and it writes if it's has it actually the chance of it being not that eruption is really low so that's not what they're concerned about at this stage but of course this would have been spewing hot fox don't think lava but lodge projectiles and so just why sink because of course wouldn't want to why they cost of those again not to lie the stench rescue is still no doubt very much still the priority above any form going towards

warnings early warnings will wear any given that an eruption was imminent. so no the eruption had been very suddenly and in fact it was next to no warning that had been a slight increase and the level of activity on the island in the previous weeks how a vulcan ologists have said that these folk these all kinds which have lava quite close to the service a surface one on them does and so this can happen just very quickly it hasn't happened in a long time a significant. eruption as this one however the odds for some us on and embrace die as this if they were up to 50 people be at the time many of them having come all of a sion of the ses that cruise ship which is important and total and so it can be obvious not to be dangerous but not to digress as nothing like this happened before or i thank you so much for giving us shannon the rights to let. gulf leaders are meeting in saudi arabia for the 40th session of the gulf cooperation council the 6 nation regional bloc

a struggle for unity since 2017 when saudi arabia the u.a.e. behind in egypt severed ties with qatar and imposed a blockade. reports on whether the summit i'd offer a new beginning. for the 1st time in years there are signs that a diplomatic dispute that has paralyzed the gulf region may be easing that's according to statements made by the qatari foreign minister ahmed abdullah fani during a conference in rome on friday we have moved from a stalemate to some progress where there are some talks. that took place between us and. specifically and saudi and we hope these talks will need. to our progress where we can see an end. to 4 of the core of the crisis and. this is the last time gulf leaders put on

a show of unity that was in riyadh in may 2017 a few weeks later saudi arabia u.a.e. behala and egypt cut diplomatic ties with qatar accusing it of funding extremism and building closer ties with iran qatar has repeatedly denied the charges and rejected a list of 13 demands by the blockade in countries which include closing a turkish military base downgrading ties with iran and shutting down the aisle to 0 media network. the us has called on its gulf allies to and their feud fearing the rift might undermine its 1st to contain what it sees as iran's growing influence in the region the signs are they are but at the same time despite these 2 are momentous steps that have been taken over the past weeks we know that a no one. diplomatic initiatives have so far over the past 2 and a half years taken place where our robust u.s.

diplomatic pressure in the background there have been signs of possible deescalation in recent weeks saudi arabia the u.a.e. and bahrain took part in a golf football tournament held in doha reversing an earlier decision to boycott the band many are now waiting to see if the same effort and corporation will be in place too and the crisis that began in june 2017. 1000 years parliament is set to debate a controversial citizenship amendment bill non muslim minorities allegedly persecuted in neighboring countries would be given citizenship under the proposed law however the more excludes muslims critics say it's the ruling hindu nationalist parties latest attempt at sidelining that. it's going live to 4 in new delhi so i'm child 1st of all where is pollen heading on this.

parliament is going to tip the bill is going to be dampened in the parliament today and he does expect it to be passed either today or tomorrow because after the bill is tabled a debate would ensue there is no doubt that it will pass because the ruling in the nationalist party does have a number in the no house so they will make sure that they can post a bit through now we are in the national capital and behind me there's a protest that's been organized many of these people actually belong to the minority community and they feel that they're being targeted for the moment although it looks like the conversation is about illegal migrants and how those who are hindus and missions and sikhs in jayne's would be accepted and muslims would not be but they feel that he would create us prices of statelessness and muslims indian muslims would also be targeted once the citizenship bill is aas now we were in our family our team and we spoke to many people who were wrongfully declared as

illegal migrants who would be wrongfully detained for years sami we met people who'd been detained for over 4 years they add all the documents in place and they said that for generations you know their families have been living in india and are in fact indians let's have a look at that point. monica john is relieved to be back home but remains haunted by the full reaction 4 months she spent in a detention center for us tribunals which has the job of identifying illegal migrants center there he says but monica insist she is an indian citizen and produces several documents to prove it she says she was born in india and a father and grandfather to get him a little i distinctly remember those they seem to detention camps how can i ever forget it was like i was inside a grave that's a space i had just that much. her neighbor are sure that b.b. says her husband died when she was in the detention center who breaks down as she recalls not being allowed to attend his funeral.

involves other people convicted of serious crimes are eligible for parole people sent to these detention centers are not i'm going to live a longer me they are. spend 3 years in a detention center because he says his name had been respected in a government document i don't want to do is hardly going to bring paul hill just a tiny gap between the beds so when we carried a bucket of water to go to the toilet and spilled even a drop of the convicts would be to us. the horrors this tribunals have declared over 100000 people as illegal foreigners and sent to nearly a 1000 to languish in detention centers until they are deported but activists say no country can be expected to accept them because a large majority if not all are indian citizens of. nearly 2000000 people in assam a missing from

a recently released list of indian citizens their fate will be decided by the tribunals judgements which are often criticised nearly everyone in these villages now has a well kept by all of documents to prove that they in fact are indian citizens but many here accuse the foreigners tribunals the 1st authority to determine their status of ordering wrongful detentions india's government is preparing to pass a citizenship amendment bill which would grant citizenship to hindu migrants but not muslims activists say the government intends to target the minority community they want to go toward india no man's land everybody can come everywhere we're going to go we are innocent and we are trying to become. transformed from these 4 course. to the hard lesson well they haven't yet. wife of the atlantic john and ashley there are terrified as are many other muslims they think that while bengalis who are hindu be saved by the hindu majority indian government muslims will be

a bit of emergency aid or the occupied west bank or rights group says it has evidence so dan's powerful paramilitary rapid support forces may be a growing threat to the country's fragile peace global witness says the leader of the r.s.s. is running a para military industrial complex $101.00 down the gallo also known as her majesty is said to be linked to 3 companies at the heart of our funding one is a grenade a gold trading company in 2017 the r.s.s. seize control of a dollar for gold mine global witness says 2 other companies are controlled by the maybe's family they used to funnel money to and from the are seth the report also says they are a surfboard a 1000 vehicles from dealers in the united arab emirates and the rights group says the r.s.s. has an account under its own name in a subsidiary of an emirates bank the rapid support force is supposed to be

controlled by sudan's military but according to global witness its funding is almost totally independent. i have a morgan joins us now from khartoum so that being labeled a threat to peace and democracy why what are they doing. well for starters protesters who have been leading sudan's revolution and since last year have been saying that they are also concerned about the role that the deputy head of the sovereign council he made to who is the head of the hours have is playing to end a transitional period there's thing that they're concerned he's trying to whitewash his image but global witness is think that they're concerned about the economy about his source of income and that he's using natural resources from the country to fund his militias which are according to the head of the sovereign council of them for top 100 who is the commander in chief says that the ourself and the sudanese military are one and that they have the same budget but that report says

that no what is happening is that the aristide has its own source of income from gold mines in the western region of darfur as well as the southern region of south kordofan so there are concerns that with the rapid support force as forces that have fought rebel groups in darfur and that have been accused of war crimes and crimes against humanity and atrocities that this transitional period would be very shaky if things don't go their way their commander him if he wanted to go we're also getting reports of a sudanese troop withdrawal for the troop withdrawal in yemen including the r.s.s. what we know about that. what one of the source of income of the rapaport forces them leasing out their troops to fight in the saudi let's call it in yemen so we heard yesterday from the sudanese prime minister abdullah him doak that at least 10000 have been withdrawn but that is not the 1st time we're hearing such a statement we heard the same from the head of the ira staff just a few weeks back saying that there will be no replacement for the 10000 which have

already been withdrawn and that they're trying to seek a political solution but that is something that people here in the country are not happy about they're saying that the worry in yemen has nothing to do with sudan and that sudan should be focusing on its internal issues in trying to focus to solve its political situation and to reach political stability and improve the economy rather than leasing out soldiers there boys and girls to go fight in a war that they have nothing to do with or leave it there thanks so much to morgan i mean miles there is headed to the un's highest court in the netherlands to defend the country against genocide charges the case filed by gambia on behalf of the organization of islamic cooperation comes up on tuesday it accuses me of committing genocide against muslims or $700.00 thousands fled to neighboring bangladesh in 2017 the bosnian government agreed to shut down an outdoor refugee camp

country's electricity is generated by hydro power now the government wants many more new plants both big and small to meet growing energy demands. the government has been criticized for lacking a robust energy strategy to justify all that construction i asked the economy minister if 119 projects which who made the figures that you are talking about mainly consist of the small full unmentioned hydro power plant where there are almost 0 environmental impact showing you say that almost 0 environmentally had any plant which is bigger than it's acquired to be studied very carefully and environmental and social impact assessment. green campaigners say that didn't happen for this 187 megawatt plant heavy water from 3 rivers was
