government of national called a least 30 people have been injured in a 2nd straight night of violence in the route or security forces fired tear gas and water can and at protesters who were throwing rocks at the lebanese parliament demonstrators they're angry at the war sitting financial crisis and the impasse over the formation of a new government on saturday nearly 400 people were injured in similar protests that the sended into writing saida hoarder has more now on how those clashes on fall dead outside the parliament building in beirut yes another night of violence the forst night of violence since tuesday we are outside parliament square but the security forces the anti-riot police have managed to push the anti-establishment protesters away from parliament building this was the security cordon that was protecting parliament building it was really the frontline behind the steel

barricades the riot police they were using water cannons they were using tear gas they were using rubber bullets the lebanese red cross issuing a statement saying that they have taken at least 30 people to hospital people who suffered injuries as a result of the confrontation hundreds of people were converged outside the. parliament building hoping to try to storm the building it's really a show of protest against the ruling elite they believe legislature is illegitimate they need to resign people want the early elections they want the ruling elites has been governing this country for 30 years to leave office and to make way for a new government a government of independent experts who will be able to deal with the dire economic situation in the country so another night of violence in the streets of the lebanese capital you can see behind us here at this field barricades are the riot

police who were really engaged in clashes with protesters who were throwing stones sticks water bottles and firecrackers anything really that they could find. to try to breach the security barrier. anger among iraqi youths that the lack of reform by their government has erupted into mass protests in the capital baghdad and the southern city of black smoke billowed into the sky tires were satellite protesters also placed roadblocks in the street at least one protester was killed 25 others injured when security forces used tear gas to break up a crowd on. fighting demonstrators have been demanding an overhaul of a political system that they believe has kept them in poverty more than 490 iraqis have been killed and 17000 injured since protests began on october 1st 11 strangers are threatening to escalate their anti government action and possibly

even cut off large areas of iraq south imran khan reports now from babylon. oh preparations begin for what protesters say will cripple iraq's roads they may be small in number at the moment but these protesters say they will cut off the south of iraq from the rest of the country by blocking all the main roads the reason is simple they say their demands for a new prime minister a new elections have been met and if they're not met by sunday night they will make good on that threat all across the south and the shot or so out of ostend we block the roads and are demanding our rights the rights of young people to get jobs we want rapid elections an independent candidate who doesn't belong to the old parties are going to demand the central government go to early elections and nominate a new pm independent and accepted by protesters if not we will escalate and block the highway and all the entrances of the city and kick out the corrupt officials so far iraq's security forces are letting the protesters make their stand now you know

. and that's you know babylon we allow the demonstrators to express their constitutional rights but not affect or harm other residents when demonstrators block the roads the security forces negotiate with the protesters to find solutions and we become mediators between babylon's local governments and the demonstrators. throughout the south of iraq protesters gather every day in large number but they concern that they're not being listened to prime minister i'd love to muddy has said he will step down and he's currently in a caretaker role but so far none of the alternative names put forward for the top job are acceptable to the parliament all the protest movement and that's frustrating the protesters the protest movement faces a decisive moment in the coming days they need to put a no pressure on the government so it meets their demands by threatening to cut off the south or off from the rest of the country is a bold move whether it works remains to be say in iraq on al-jazeera.

in syria against what he called a united threat which is faced by all groups which are on the right side of history according to him which is isis. has been credited for many of these attacks by the united states after it was designated as a terrorist group but according to the group they are not in hiding he met us in plain sight he says there they are going to continue their activities political social and others he did mention that they are going to wait and see what the u.s. does in this region but the he said their writing is on the wall in the u.s. forces and coalition troops should be thinking about the leaving iraq he did mention about this this specific meeting which happened in the city of qom in iran which he said was a crucial meeting and many important decisions came out of. that meeting was

very important to coordinate our actions activities and the resistance and the next steps maybe the americans will stay in iraq and challenge us it was the 1st step in a new era of coordination among shia and resistance forces we answered the call from the solder to meet in calm and one of the results was the protest which will happen in 4 or 5 days in iraq. and as i mentioned about his will have been banned by the united states it is a group which is be seen as a threat to not just the u.s. and coalition troops but according to the united states on iraqis as well up to something that the spokesman rubbished and he said that they are the sons of the soil and they'll continue their struggle against what he called the u.s. aggression and illegal presence in iraq the bodies of the 11 ukrainians who died when a passenger jet that iran says it has accidentally shot down the slum arrived in kiev on sunday all 176 people on board the ukrainian airlines flight were killed

ending this hospital is filled with government soldiers and civilians injured in saturday's attack on a military camp in the region of memory of more than 100 who killed. who it was around sunset prayers were praise and then we said down in the missile hit it was around 630 in for 10 minutes or so i couldn't feel anything around me so many of my friends were killed this is all that's left of the mosque that was targeted blown apart by a ballistic missile how yemen's government backed by a saudi u.a.e. led military coalition has blamed the iranian backed rebels and his that to retaliate. we would like to offer our condolences to our nation our armed forces and the families of the fallen those who were killed in a heinous attack by the iranian backed hooty militias the fallen were true heroes

people arrived here on the border between guatemala and mexico and more than 4000 people in total that have set out from honduras now trying to get the north but there is a problem and mexico has said that it's not going to allow them to transit is not going to allow them to get to the united states where the mexican government has said is it will allow them to work in the south of the country given these is in certain cases it will give them asylum but what's been happening is that mexican authorities have only been letting people in in groups of 20 smaller groups and that's given rise to suspicions from these people that they're actually just being deported straight back to do this it hasn't helped the mexican migration authorities haven't told them and haven't told us exactly what's happening to those people so there's a state of uncertainty here there's going to be moved people arriving from this caravan probably in the next day or so so on monday they're saying that they're

going to take to the border bridge 3 you know it's got to mexico and they're going to turn out all mass and demand to be let through so it remains to be seen how the mexican authorities are going to respond to that. riot police in hong kong have arrested several people taking part in a pro-democracy protest police fired tear gas at the demonstrators who had gathered in their thousands authorities had approved the rally as long as participants stayed in one location the protesters that fired the ruling and tried to march through the streets sarah clarke was at that rally in hong kong. it began as a peaceful rally with thousands gathered in china garden in central hong kong on the island and at all because of this particular rally they wanted to march but the police denied that approval but the point is where to hit any why now they lift and i march along some the busy thoroughfare the big highways behind us on a why to cause why by but the protesters were stopped and we got
