bought by nature and guard that military even questioning about the legality of this court which was formed to attribute it members back in great detail again by now why should he now gets to go back to the debate right now why should he prime minister back in the late 1990 s. he didn't make much progress as army chief although he was going over to another country he said at length he didn't try to come back to progress on his day not that allowed to land in progress on all the more so than out of view and from good military tradition stage a coup so a lot of people would be saying that dunn said he had support across the country or the people of maine or degree read whatever he's done by david white the white board it progress on for more shutouts and dave hall they made more direct in the military but also i started the civilian population is concerned and because the

date should be coming into the light once again i'm just this this is who at the foods high. a light perhaps tensions between the different institutions plea in pakistan of course the military has a special rule if you like i mean they have been involved in the governance of pakistan on and off for quite some time the judiciary is also making its presence felt with this ruling is very harsh sentence some might argue what does this episode reveal about tensions between the institutions there. where did no doubt that day i had been kenshin recently even on the extension of the serving military chiva was given extension that they'd left in gender card merge outweighed by the prime minister i had taken that if they're going to give them an extension then edwards chatted in the call saying that day was no

mention of the extension under the constitution that there should be debate on the floor of parliament and that they would need the support of the majority in order to be able to pause nejad nation ridgway to get bin laden the idea of the millipede chief deputy of cause had been very active even end up was great and. important didn't see to it back in 2007 he had a heart started your dishy against him and he always said that he would not go to no one and that decision of god to defend said to me no arguing that much i don't have to be instead of going to die although if the movies made a symbolic move given the fact that much i have been critical condition and watch president joe biden 1000000 feel it's worth saying that he was not given a hey dude right to defend him said that sentence the next century it's something

which has not gone down red with the military and of course a lot of eyebrows have been raised to cross bloggers on i do how you can send dan one man dead while either knowledge predated release or not because there are concerns about there's. no kick about why just i live in islamabad thank you very much. now there's been more violence in parts of india's capital over a controversial new citizenship law the police fired tear gas and hit protesters with the tones out of vehicles and shops were damaged during the demonstrations that is one spread anger against the law which offers minorities from neighboring countries indian citizenship but excludes muslims sale raman is a new delhi where the still tension after sunday night's violence is how it started off as being a pretty quiet day in terms of demonstrations yes lots of loud demonstrations across the country and in delhi looting and jamming university that it see that violence between civil society students and the police on sunday however by mid

afternoon we were getting reports from a district called salim courts in the northeast of delhi where members of the community there seemed to clash with police the other police fired off several rounds of tear gas and it's believed that several members of the public have been injured and that's as much as we know at the moment now that situation has been brought under control but it only goes to show what a sort of tinder pot this whole issue is of the citizenship amendment act and how it's actually not just affecting people but making people now realise how it could affect them if they're not really members of the majority hindu community. and there's been a surge in fighting in libya between government forces and those loyal to the warlord hell if i have to the u.n. backs governments launched artillery attacks against her terrorist troops we've been attempting to take the capital tripoli well have his forces have been

conducting lethal airstrikes after he'd earlier called for a final offensive to take the city of this follows the united spent over a mass mobilization in a number of cities opposed to how after and at the same time italy's foreign minister luigi demaio is in tripoli to meet the leader of libya's un by its government its only has criticized both the governments of national accords and turkey for what it describes is their mistaken approach to the on going conflict is complex story this one that's even get the latest from mahmoud's. tripoli mahmoud let's just start with that visit by the italian foreign minister to libya this follows the control over see over the libyan turkish maritime agreements just how significant is this meeting. well it is of course significance of 1st of all it's the 1st visit for the mayo

italian foreign minister to libya since he took office. back in september and italy apparently is trying to maintain balance between rivals in libya remember that italy italy is is trying to maintain good relations also with the eastern a camp led by the warlord khalifa haftar meanwhile italy had a field hospital. treating government. fighters in the city of misrata and meanwhile italy has been receiving gear injured fighters from have to camp in the east of libya so this visit after. this visit. and the meeting between nadin male and you and baghdad prime minister

face arrived. some sources say that demi is also expected to travel to the east. one. to meet with the warlord really for half of but after the controversy over their libyan agreement to go to being demoted time activities remember that italy has already agreements with the a euro and back the government of national accord regarding the same issue activities in the mediterranean including the. combating of the illegal immigration and smuggling in the mediterranean and meanwhile of course fuckwit all these steffen actors who are piling into this situation there is still a battle on the graves and several cities have to clear. to join the battle for tripoli what does this mean in terms of fighting on the ground

how does this change things. we'll it means a 1st of all that those cities are insisting on continuing the fight to defend tripoli against what they call have to his forces aggression and it also means a kind of propaganda counter propaganda because remember have to forces have been using the media using propaganda to test and intimidate the adversary the latest was have a declaration last thursday of the 0 hour for his forces to enter tripoli so those cities are vowing now to send more troops to munition the to the front lines in southern tripoli but in all cases those cities have been already contributing to the defending of tripoli since the beginning of the fighting back

in april what is important here is that. some cities are declaring the declaring their general mobilization to defend the capital tripoli to show the world that they are still clinging on the case because to defend to tripoli but for the city of misrata this is different because this is the 2nd time since 2011 the city of misrata declared declaring their general mobilization a member back into an 11 it declared this general mobilization to defend the city against gadhafi forces now this is the 2nd time which is very symbolic what came up without the right who are joining us there from tripoli thank you. so sudan's president salva kiir says he and the main opposition leader react machine or have agreed to form a unity government that c.n.n. met so over the past 3 days in the capital juba to resolve outstanding disputes that prevents is the formation of a coalition government spy

a previous of ember 12 that line well 2013 care accused of attempting a coup sparking a conflict that left hundreds of thousands dead well joke writer joke is a co-founder of the sit institute in syracuse new york that's in the united states it's an independent think tank focusing on sightsee done well he says one of the reasons the unity government wasn't formed sooner is because the country was divided into 32 states by president salva kiir. the south sudanese people are not really holding their breath that this will work out this time around. but there is still hope and people are tired of the war and the consequence of the war including the collapse of the 'd economy the displacement of nearly half of the population and. they interact abolishes that prevented these 2 men from forming

a transitional government of national unity including the division of the country by president keel into $32.00 states and the opposition is saying that this is state unconstitutional and must be that order must be rescinded i think finally now . they may have agreed to look past that issue and say we will sort it out once the government has been moved and the government has flagged the possibility of holding referendum on this issue the opposition is not decided on this up to this point the other issue was the security arrangements including the defense forces for the parameter to be in juba and it seems there is now an understanding that that that that provision of security for the. would be 1st vice president will be will be availed by the state so i think there

are hopes and there 'd is optimism in the air. but i think people are saying we have been here before and it has not we have not gone past that stage hopefully this will be not be the case again this time around says come on al-jazeera. no end in sight more frustration for travelers as a mass strength in france continues. this is campus so we'll look at whether v.m. vicious transition from benefits to people. got a fair bit of cloud to central parts of china at the moment at a fed meeting right in this while see this thickening band of cloud here pushing

over toward shanghai that will sink its well little further south which as we go through the next couple of days northerly winds on that cold wind we could see some snow just on the northern flank of the system there but a fair bit of wet weather just to the south of that come down into with some pos china here this fine and dry 25 celsius in hong kong tad cool as we go on into thursday but not bad that what a weather will sink through temperatures in shanghai fall back to around 8 degrees celsius as the rain policies for the southwest may well be got some very heavy rain continuing across parts of sri lanka you can see the shower clouds here rumbling away pushing in the big down post a much of india it is staying dry we are seeing temperatures getting up to around 29 celsius into the southern pos but on the 18 it need that if that bit of cloud around here that's going to continue to push its way further east which is we go on through thursday they tried to clear the air a little at least showers continue for sri lanka as you can see more heavy

downpours him a mom across the peninsula while she dry but watch out for some right furcata over the next couple of days. when is the last time you out on the streets protesting whether online you feel the weight of the system going to walk through each and every. or layer further and further into the jail or if you join us on saying the entry has to start from day one whether again you and attention or you incarcerate this is a dialogue everyone has a voice ok there are studies that support a lost cause will be varying accounts but i want to give people the reason for joining the global conversation on out is iraq.

this is al jazeera a quick reminder of the headlines this hour pakistan's army has expressed anguish after former president pervez musharraf was sentenced to death in a treason case he was the chief of army staff before he seized power in a coup in 1999 and ruled till 2008 there's been more violence in india's capital over a controversial new citizenship law police fired tear gas protesters softer vehicles and shops were damaged and more for us minorities from neighboring countries indeed citizenship but excludes muslims. and there's been a surge in fighting in libya between government forces and those loyal to for her after the un backed government launched artillery attacks against afters troops a good attempt things to the capital tripoli have to us forces have been conducting

air strikes. now the french prime minister has said they are refusing to back saying over reforms change the pension system this comes as nationwide strikes by transport workers answer a 13th day they're protesting against government plans to reform the pension system trains and flights are being disrupted and that destruction could continue through the christmas holiday periods no wonder the reforms workers would need to work 2 x. 3 years before getting a thought pension the government says this will creates a fairer system but that's the official behind the plans that the quits over a scandal involving declared income woman sasha butler is in paris for us she says workers believe the government has crossed a red line in their reform plans. opinion polls suggest that the majority of

french people actually support the strikes even though the majority also support the fact that the government does need to make some changes it's really time to the details people feel that although the pension system does need to be changed modernized that's what the government says they are unhappy with some of the details most particularly they're unhappy with the fact that the government wants people to work to me is longer than they do now in order to be able to have their full pension so that means is that of $62.00 they can retire at $62.00 on a full pension now it would take them to 64 and that's something quite controversial in france because they feel that the government had promised not to touch the age of a full pension retirement but nevertheless what the government is saying is that they say that no matter what they don't want to have to start off with the trade unions they don't want to get into the situation in which the disruption continues the government says that it won't back down but it really does look as if what we have is exactly that a standoff situations the trade unions are saying they can go to continue with the

strikes the government is saying they need to forge ahead they need to modernize this pension system because they say it's an equal it's not fair they say that it's costing too much public money and the fronts needs to really align itself with all the european countries. the u.n. is hosting its 1st ever global refugee forum in geneva to look at ways to improve the lives of millions across the globe the 3 day events comes us the number of refugees is rising last year in december the un general assembly agreed on a deal to improve the way the world responds and helps refugees. and concrete in the pledges to make. this is a moment for him bishan it is a moment to jettison a model of support that too often left refugees for decades with their lives on holes confined to camps just scraping by unable to flawed or can't 3 weeks it is a moment to build a more equitable response to that e.g.

krises true a sharing of responsibility human kind came together to address many huge refugee challenges across the 20th century we should be able to do the same in the 21st. every year science committee is meeting to finalize the rules for the impeachment votes against president trump members of the house rules committee will decide on how much time to a life of the debate before the vote which is likely to happen on wednesday the democrat controlled house is expected to vote in favor of impeachment would then lead to a trial in the republican controlled senate early next year. is in washington d.c. she says changes the u.s. house committee meeting is a significant step on the road to impeachment. what this step is today is essentially setting the parameters of that how long there can be

a debate how many amendments and given the fact that passions are running high every one of these even the procedural cumbersome steps can be rather explosive so that has the potential for that in the midst of all of this what this is really is a legacy defining moment for house speaker nancy pelosi but it's also controversy because in the midst of all of this we have new polling out that shows that americans despite the fact that we've had weeks of testimony weeks of very damning testimony continuous house hearings on the dial in terms of public opinion really hasn't budged at all it really is what most people are calling an even split now the u.s. president is playing this up he's continuing to say that he has committed no wrongdoing when he asked for a favor of ukraine in order to investigate corruption to dig up dirt on a political rival former vice president joe biden he even made the argument that

this is how tim is unified the republican party that this is in some ways made him look like a victim of partisan politics it's still very hard to see whether or not that is the case that certainly what the president is arguing but he said very little in the last couple of days we had when these articles of impeachment were clearly defined against him last week the president was very angry very vocal but yesterday when he appeared before the cameras he was rather muted. now thousands of colombians have turned out in the capital bogus nazi protest against tax reforms professors say the measures being debated in congress should be scrapped because they'll only benefit businesses and the bridge. human rights watch is accusing israel of using sweeping military orders to criminalize nonviolent political activity by palestinians in the occupied west bank it says in reports the orders are being used to shut down media outlets political organizations and jail
