now to our correspondents we're standing by in zone is a lot of action right where you are tell us what you're saying. to look at. well you can see behind me is a battleground outside our living building very. confrontational is betraying not 50 pounds i established the protesters who are trying to storm the parliament building we've been here for 37 days but never have we seen such scenes is starting earlier than usual the young man was showing stones more aggressive than in previous ok giron's i hear people chanting against the government there are the forms of government that they're calling it a hezbollah led government others are calling it a one sided government that that excluded as a certain sect in the country so we're no longer just talking about people who are

who are demanding a change in leadership we are also seeing supporters of the other political parties who believe that they have been left out in particular supporters of the outgoing prime minister saddle friday to these sundays because this is a post reserved for the sunni community and they feel he was the only one who had to pay the price that he was forced to leave office and he is the head of the largest sunni bloc and so now we're seeing really the events it is a turning point more violence young boys much more aggressive we have to wait to see how the anti-riot police are going to respond in a row i'm going to come back to you know another question on this but as you're speaking of course we're seeing a lot of this action around you this is poor some of the have a listen to what's happening with the doors of fun to watch what's taking place not just among.

the site was describing there you see people holding rocks and of course probably. as well so i know you're saying that this has started so much earlier than is normal but of course people who are in for chinese government for a new cabinet to be sure. we've seen that and yet we're seeing this reaction so what's missing what's going wrong. well like you mentioned a protest movement began and in october people took to the streets because of the dire economic conditions they blamed the political elite the political class which has been governing this country for 3 decades they blame them for mismanagement they blame them for the state's near bankruptcy unemployment was on the rise of so

that's what they've been demanding what they got the response from the ruling elites was a new government which was announced late yesterday yes a number of the ministers are specialists but those nationalists and experts were appointed by the political parties the established political parties who remain in power so the people really did not achieve what they wanted and the question is that they're asking is if indeed these specialists who who have been appointed and named by the political parties would they dare stand up to these parties and open corruption files for example so there is a lot of concern that the new government is not going to bring about a change the new government will not be able to to save this country from near economic collapse even the finance minister himself has said that isn't a state of collapse and if this continues we're heading to bankruptcy and then you

have the prime minister himself has and yet who is saying that you know the situation is desperate and that lebanon is facing a catastrophe so it is a daunting challenge ahead for the new government but what the. both here feel is that they were dismissed that they were ignored their voices were not heard. and that is why you see this more aggressive behavior because they feel that the peaceful protests didn't really achieve anything and that. they have been taking to the streets their voices haven't been heard you can see they're just breaking anything they can find the tiles from the streets and throwing that. you mentioned there the economic crisis facing the country and overseas this is cross and center and people the feeling the impact of the very day we get it is also a reality is to try to deal with those economic issues by require structural reform and austerity measures that at least in the short term might increase the pain for

the local people themselves. and. yes even the officials in power will say we need the help of the international community we need their help because they need to unlock billions of dollars in aid that the international community has made it clear time and time again we're not doing that unless we know that. that's these reforms will be carried out but what does it mean that what do these economic reforms that have all of it involves for example a streamlining the public sector which takes up a lot of the budgets of public sector salaries for example but if politicians are to do that that means you take away from them a resource which they use which they exploit that to provide privileges jobs to their supporters in order to stay in power so it's very very difficult to bring

down or take down the system what people here want is a overhaul of the political system so that's why they don't believe that this. the new government will bring about the change that drawn but more importantly is the position of the international community because in fact it's quite interesting that the only comment that has been made so far from a foreign official has been the french president manuel mccall he said france will stand by its lebanese friends and it will provide quote everything south lebanon out of this deep crisis but he didn't mention the jap's government specifically so it's not really clear whether or not the french officials consider the arabs government credible and. the united nations as well issuing a statement welcoming a new government saying that they will work with 11 on it as it implements reforms

so again the key word is reforms so we have to wait to see whether or not the new government suggests government will receive international legitimacy but a clearly it doesn't have the legitimacy from the from the people. so i thank you and as i know how it is important for us there from let me just going to start on those pictures that you can see on the screen obviously a very dramatic such motion of the cyclist. hasn't seen the protest to be going on as early as the so that you know that's a recipe that's this episode of the close to the scene so far as. some of the projectiles we've seen looks like a good account of his role being the nuns who tried these protesters. a lot of action there a lot of anger. on the streets of milan all run out of course all of this happening because of that had 1st made some trying to deal with the think it could all be constructive for me to come to the protest is what happened with the. with the good

work from the police for the future and and it leading to the economic crisis that if you don't believe that there is so i hope the end of a group of course will go back to is these protests continue. now the world health organization is set to decide whether to clear an international emergency over the new corona virus that's already killed 17 people in china china's government is urging people to avoid traveling in or out of the city of where it originated elsewhere the 1st taste has been confirmed in the u.s. and 2 people are suspected to fall ill in hong kong a global health emergencies issued to stop the spread of a disease across borders requiring a coordinated international response but the situation must be serious sudden unusual or unexpected once an emergency is declared impacted states could have a legal duty to respond was speaking to our jazeera from the world economic forum

in davos switzerland the un's head of humanitarian affairs said that particularly worried about the virus spreading to list developed countries what we've seen so far is small number of cases relatively speaking in mostly relatively developed countries tamara the emergency director of all the world's biggest most simple humanitarian agencies say unicef the world food programme w h o the red cross and so on will be meeting to prepare for the possibility of the coronavirus appearing in much weaker more fragile countries who will find it harder to cope just because they weaker more french on sony go live now to our diplomatic it is a joint buys in davos and joins obviously the coronavirus is front and center in the minds of people there what of it will be insane.

yeah what is one of the issues that is being discussed on the humanitarian front here at false because clearly yes you have global political leaders coming here you have all the business community but the humanitarian community come here to to try and get their message to all these important people in the big theme of davos is relevant to that of course because it is the issue of climate change to discuss this further i'm joined by the executive director of the world food program david beasley climate change the humanitarian situation what you do deliver food aid to people i know you travel to the so hell reasonably recently tell me how food insecurity is affected by climate change will be in the future or the 2 most significant driving impacts as men make conflict but when you combine that with climate change is an economic as well as humanitarian catastrophe and coming here to davos is not about raising money years about engaging the private sector in the leaders to make the changes necessary you can debate all day long what causes the

climate change but we deal with it what happens on the ground when poor people have droughts floods hurricanes cyclons these types of things so we have to be on the ground responding helping people not to saving lives changing last changing the dynamics rehabilitating the land and doing whatever it takes so people can survive let's talk about a couple of the conflicts libya has been in the news because of the big conference in berlin no big breakthrough there does that worry you from the humanitarian situation particularly those people who is stuck there in this conflict zone as migrants who are coming through that well because of the greater saheli destabilization of the sri mistruths coming into a very fragile area because of verity of reason cluny climate change the heat is a horror moving down but libya because of this situation is a gateway into europe and it is a significant issue we need for living to be stable as so that we can address the problems and issues so that migration by. khem a matter of choice not by necessity because of destabilization so we're all over

the greater seville region with millions of people that are dramatically impacted and so the gateway that it's opened up for a variety of reason for migration by necessity for weapons trade sex trade slave trade it's a it's a bad situation and it needs to get resolved and it needs to get resolved quickly another place i know you've been recently which perhaps looks like a bit of good news is sudan you've been to parts of sudan that u.n. agencies haven't been to in a very long time you know it's hard to believe that there is some good news out there sudan is moving in the right direction in fact we were able to bring opposition leaders or conflict for 35 years we brought the rebel leader of the overseas as well as the prime minister together down in the nuba mountain area the blue area hasn't happened in a long time we've got humanitarian aid now going in but the see these 2 men come together hugging each other embracing each other walking together hand in hand it

was the most powerful message that i've ever seen in sudan and it was a very powerful message that the world needs to see you can't end war and conflict it's just a matter of the heart you are a very rare un official because you have a previous life you were the governor of south carolina republican governor so you know everyone in the trumpet ministration you'll probably the only person intellects trump world with the u.n. humanitarian well how do you try and sell the u.n. and your effort of trying to feed people in some of the poorest countries around the world with america 1st for example on sudan there's now talk it might go on a travel ban on this what do you say to people in the trumpet minutes people were shocked that when i took this role everyone said the trump administration going to 0 out international 8 well united states out of the trump administration and with the republicans the democrats in the senate the house my aid from the united states . what up from 1900000000 to 3300000000 just for the united states so i said

earlier that if i could get the facts before this president i know he'll make the right decision so went and met with the leaders the democrat leaders and the republican leaders in the senate which appeared to be fighting on everything but when it came to international aid and food security they come together in this light well so we use food as a weapon of peace even in america david beasley executive director of the world food program thank you for talking to us here on al-jazeera jones thank you james by as davos there now as he was leaving davos u.s. president donald trump announced plans to extend his controversial travel ban to more countries as you say now he's on his way back to washington d.c. where he's impeachment trial is starting we have to be safe our country has to be safe you see what's going on in the world our country has to be safe so we have a very strong travel ban and we'll be having a few countries to the white house correspondent can believe how good joins us now and can believe just explain this decision for sport motivated it now my feed into

the problems that donald trump is having back home with impeachment now well in terms of the countries of involve we have a sense of what those that list looks like bella ruth eritrea carious down sudan man mark tanzania and nigeria you know this was a pretty controversial policy when it 1st came out at the start of donald trump's administration and fact many people called it a muslim ban because of some of the comments the u.s. president had said on the campaign trail it targeted mostly muslim majority countries it was intelligent the courts the supreme court in 28000 ruling in fact that. the policy could be upheld that this was something that they said that because the administration had in fact shown that this was about security and even loud some countries like iraq and chad to be lifted off if they complied with strict biometrics counterterrorism measures that this could be

a policy it could remain in place so now the administration pushing forward with the next wave of countries on that list and once again reiterating confirming to al jazeera that it's doesn't meet as a permanent list you can get off the list but you have to comply with strict u.s. security standards and nothing happens now of course without impeachment being the backdrop of that so is this donald trump begins you get in davos look on the president on like decisions and i things the democrats do nothing he certainly making that case and he didn't some rather colorful language calling at least one of the house managers who has been arguing this case on behalf of the democrats a sleazebag which is certainly very unpresidential language i've never heard a president say before he seemed to be sort of relishing for when he was in davos this distance and mingling with the world's leaders but now that he's on air force one headed back the trial set to resume at 18 g.m.t.

the president in attack mode once again not only attacking his adversaries but also maintaining he can't have any of the witnesses that the democrats would like because for in the case of john bolton the former national security adviser will that would harm national security and he still maintains no wrongdoing says all of this is just agenda by democrats to undo the results of the 2016 u.s. election take a listen to what he had to say. it's a total hoax it's a disgrace they talked about their tremendous case and done their tremendous case they had no case it's all a hoax it's a con job like if he's a corrupt politician another surprising detail from that press conference by the president himself donald trump distancing himself from left part as a man who has gone on national television here in the united states repeatedly saying that yes there was parallel diplomacy when it came to ukraine and the trumpet ministration i was a part of that donald trump distance themselves said yeah this was just

a groupie that showed up at my fundraisers left part a set as that's not the case the u.s. president was also asked if he was enjoying this he says he's not enjoying all of this but he feels it's important in fact his quote was it's the greatest thing i've ever done for our country not sure everyone in the united states shares that sentiment. it was a use of words kimberly thank you for that joining us there our white house correspondent well as we mentioned the u.s. senate has agreed on the rules for the impeachment trial of donald trump following nearly 13 hours of a times heated debate she had her tansey reports all along opening day and not our founders trusted the senate to rise above short term at the last moment senate majority leader mitch mcconnell with his proposed rules for the impeachment trial gome was the possibility that the evidence collected during the various house inquiries might not be entered into evidence in the senate trial come to the democratic party house managers and white house lawyers would now have 3 days and

not 2 to make their opening statements that left the issue of witnesses and documents house democrats argue that they were withheld in the course of their inquiries into whether donald trump was withholding congressionally mandated military aid for ukraine in return for an investigation into for vice president joe biden and that these must be produced in the senate trials a leader mcconnell wants a trial with no existing evidence and no new evidence. a trial without evidence is not a trial it's a cover up the white house argues that the request for more evidence proves the democrats don't have a strong case against the president they said in their brief we have overwhelming evidence and they're afraid to make their case think about it think about it it's common sense overwhelming evidence. to impeach the president of the united states and then they come here on the 1st day and they say you know what we need some more evidence the white house also argues

that the documents and witnesses are privileged in order to shape foreign policy the president must be able to have private deliberations with advisers and that's an argument rejected by the democrats make the argument that the president's conduct here was was it was conduct that every president should be allowed to engage in and i think that most americans don't believe that for that mr chief justice i yield back the democrats failed to pass their amendments on the mcconnell's rules though they will be another chance to debate the need for more witnesses and documents but only after opening arguments and the cross-examination of the house managers and white house lawyers he just watch donald trump was reported to be monitoring proceedings while attending the world economic forum in switzerland his position remains unchanged that was a hoax so the democrats now have 3 days beginning on wednesday to make their opening arguments the white house says its lawyers may not need that much time and certainly hopes that all of this will be wrapped up before the state of the union

address on february 4th with donald trump's acquittal she had pronounced the al-jazeera washington. well as the impeachment trial unfolds in the u.s. senate alan fischer now has a closer look at the events and allegations that led up to this point. this was the day after donald trump to call for us. exactly 3 years on he no faces a trial in the u.s. senate which could make that a reality it's a new story and it started in july last year with what should have been a routine phone call from his desk in the oval office donald trump called the president of ukraine a whistleblower was what he did but what they had about the phone call and filed a complaint and that a letter to congress the allegation president trump was holding back hundreds of millions of dollars in military aid meant for you. greene and it would be sent if the ukrainian president announced an investigation into trump's political rival former vice president joe biden and his son hunter who want to new crane don't

trump didn't understand the fuss i made a call the call was perfect he released the transcript but it seemed to cause more trouble the key section as the ukrainian president promises to buy more u.s. missiles trump responds i would like you to do is a favor though he asks for investigations into debunk conspiracy theory about the election and later brings up the biden's asking for help from foreign governments that could impact u.s. elections is against the law the president must be held accountable no one is advanced in law the democrats who control the house of representatives announced an impeachment inquiry would begin the white house refused to cooperate several career diplomats came forward anyway he testified under oath what the whistleblower said was true colonel alexander vigilant was on the call he later reported it to white house lawyers it is improper for the president of the united states to demand a foreign government investigate a u.s.

citizen and a political opponent the former u.s. ambassador testified that she was removed from her position after the president's personal lawyer rudy giuliani pushed to get her removed ukrainians you prefer to play by the old corrupt rules such arenas where continues to amaze me. is that they found americans willing to partner with them and working together they apparently succeeded in orchestrating the removal of a u.s. ambassador others said a small group of people close to the president were running a kind of shadow back channel u.s. policy in ukraine it became clear to me that giuliani's efforts to gin up politically motivated investigations are now infecting u.s. engagement with ukraine leveraging president selenski desire for a white house meeting then came testimony from ambassador gordon saundra and he told congress the new ukrainian president wanted a white house meeting and he knew what he had to do to get it investigate the

bidens was there a quid pro quo as i testified previously with regard to the requested white house call and the white house meeting the answer is yes so england was a $1000000.00 donor to the president's inauguration he was rewarded with the job of ambassador to the utopian union as he was a key player with ukraine and insisted senior figures knew what was going on everyone was in the loop the suggestion that we were engaged in some irregular or rogue diplomacy is absolutely false the democrats have delivered 2 articles of impeachment one for abuse of poet the 2nd of struction of congress 2 key facts have not changed that are critical to these impeachment proceedings one ukraine in fact received aid and 2 there was no investigation into the guidance throughout it all present trump insists he did nothing wrong we're achieving what no administration has ever achieved before and what do i get out of it tell me i

get impeached that's what i get out of. by these radical left lunatics i get em paged do you solemnly swear now the senate has been sworn in to act as a 100 strong judy in the trial of president trump. this is only the 3rd presidential impeachment trial in american history when the trial gets under way there may be witnesses there may be new evidence there will be votes or not there will be long days and at the end it will take 2 thirds of the senate to vote to convict the president and remove him from office alan fischer al-jazeera washington . libya's oil production has slowed to a near halt after forces loyal to warlord aletha hafter blockaded ports and stopped pipelines it's costing the struggling economy $77000000.00 a day shortages of basic goods and price rises are expected to follow tony berthing

reports from libya's last functioning refinery in the we're west of the capital tripoli. alone tanker just offshore from the oil refinery waiting for a shipment of crude oil that may not come for some time zawiya is 40 kilometers west of the capital tripoli and is the 2nd largest of libya's 6 refineries forces loyal to warlord khalifa haftar blockaded the other 5 oil ports i closed a pipeline servings that we're it's gone from handling 300000 barrels of oil a day to 0 it's proving an effective weapon leaving libya's oil industry on the verge of collapse it's something the libyan government cannot solve by itself. i think the government of turkey or the government to pressure the european union and the united states come to realisation that they stand by us and they stand against this military dictator who wants to control libya. production islam from

$1300000.00 barrels a day to less than $70000.00 and it's costing $77000000.00 a day in lost revenue and the country has been forced to declare force majeure and avoid a legal obligation to comply with international contracts some sources believe that khalifa haftar may have agreed a burning conference to measures aimed at ending the oil blockade but no details have been given nor a timeframe nor what he may want in return and every day without a resolution pushes libya closer towards an economic crisis the wall or controls 2 thirds of the country with well resourced fighters who've been battling to take the capital tripoli since last april libya is already suffering shortages of basic necessities such a gas will domestic use even though it is a producer the oil squeeze will only make matters worse. than the one bitter thing out of it's going to affect everyone we rely on oil to give us foreign currency without it there will be

a huge problem because libyans depend 100 percent on imports from abroad so without oil revenues prices will rise. oil is libya's only real industry but it has failed to match the production levels seen joy in the era of duffy who was overthrown in the revolution of 2011 the country should be as rich as gulf countries and untapped gas and oil fields have a potential to produce 2400000 barrels a day but it has suffered from chronic mismanagement and corruption so we have to show some transparency we have to show some of the organizations. and just you know deny these allegations and stop because the world really ally completely with one side. fuel is heavily subsidized in libya costing around 4 u.s. cents a liter unless the blockade is ended that subsidy is likely to end and prices are predicted to increase significantly and that will only add to the suffering of the

libyan people tony berkeley al-jazeera zawiyah libya. the iranian president's chief of staff and said iran and saudi arabia should work together to resolve their problems tensions of long been high between the 2 countries if about it relations were severed after an attack on the saudi embassy in tehran in 2016 forced to barry has more from tehran. this comes at a time when iran finds itself in a situation where it needs all the friends it has in this region this is something the chief of staff alluded to he said that there is no reason for iran not to have good relations with its neighbors including saudi arabia of course iran and saudi have had a very tumultuous relationship over the past few years and it began in january of 2016 when an number of iranians stormed the saudi embassy in tehran and stroy what was inside because they were angry about an execution of a shia cleric in saudi arabia since then saudi officials have cut the pull magic

relations with tehran and things have just escalated since then given the war in yemen and a number of other things that have taken place so there is a sense on the iranian side anyways for now that there needs to be a close look at this relationship and one of the main sticking points for a rainy and is the war in yemen they want to see an end to that as soon as possible and they say they are ready to go back to stablish the relationship with saudi arabia as soon as that happens and the statement we heard from rouhani chief of staff today just a highlight how important saudi arabia is for iran and of course in the to having stability in this region. un human rights experts want an investigation into new evidence that the saudi crown prince was involved in hacking the phone of amazon boss jeff bezos who also owns the washington post newspaper. who investigated the killing of journalist in turkey says they've received forensic analysis that shows

daughter was stolen from by his office phone it happened after he received what messages from hamad bin solomon saudi arabia says the allegations are absurd. and un special rapporteur said in a joint statement the information we have received suggests the possible involvement of the crown prince in surveillance of this debate if it to influence if not silence the washington post reporting on saudi arabia these allegations are relevant as world to the ongoing evaluation of claims about the crown prince's involvement in the 2018 murder of the washington post journalist. the alledged hacking demands immediate investigation by u.s. and other authorities. williams is founder of the cyber security company rendition infoseek he explained some of the methods used to investigate a hack. we would start doing some timestamp analysis and and i suspect that that's

probably how they came to the conclusion that this what that message was the likely infection back or looking at the time stamp when the message was not only received but also when the message was read both of those timestamps are stored for what's app and if they're looking then at a parental image of the cell phone they would be able to discover when the spyware or malware on his phone became active and line that up with the time stamp when this message was read we see a lot of the intent framed around some of the other saudi cyber activity really as basically stifling any criticism of the kingdom certainly the washington post has been very critical of the critical of the kingdom and you know basically by by targeting bay those that could well be if indeed it is you know that the kingdom the it could well be a basically an example of them trying to get dirk or some leverage on bezos to

prevent future or influence future writing in the washington post. dozens more people have been killed by is strikes on rebel held areas in northern syria the bombardment there despite a cease fire reached early this month. as. i was in syria this is what a ceasefire looks like desperate efforts to put out the flames and. the syrian civil defense group known as the white helmets blames russian warplanes for the attack. in a nearby village the air strikes killed an entire family. since this morning russian warplanes have been good ducting air strikes on the west and countryside of aleppo strikes hit close to it resulted in a massacre a family of 9 were killed 6 children a mother a father and a 20 year old man monisha say russia which supports the syrian government is trying

to push rebels away from the city of aleppo and a motorway linking it with the capital damascus russia and turkey which back some rebel groups announced a ceasefire earlier this month but it never really took hold. of the villages it's had a sports center and houses nearby with displaced people are taking refuge to people who are in civil defense has pulled out the injured moved taken them to the closest medical facility. doctors here a struggling to cope dozens of facilities have been destroyed in strikes in recent months putting immense pressure on makeshift clinics like this one and a camp for those displaced by the fighting. with people looking for safety the u.n. says more than 350002 fled their homes since the beginning of december many have had to do this more than once. i'm from home so we were displaced from. them

from. we want to. so from one place to another and they were running out of places to. camps overwhelmed and the northern border with turkey is close to. the syrian government's vowed to retake all remaining rebel held territory groups say the recent escalation a dangerous and deadly turning point in the conflict. and yet again it's innocent civilians who are bearing the brunt of the fighting brian al jazeera. well it's like you back now to our earliest story allegations that saudi arabia has hacked the phone of amazon balsam washington post on the jeff bezos un special rapporteur agnes kalmadi is calling for an investigation and she joins us now from new york 1st of all get from you an indication of how convincing the forensic evidence supplied thus far is. so the any shoulder expert who conduct an.

investigation concluded reason medium to or high certainty that to do so also the hacking was a video file sent to me stove top web savvy took an account by the crown prince we subsequently david kay and i asked independent expert to review of the findings of the knish or team of experts and they too i've reached a similar level of conclusion as the the initial forensic study i wouldn't want to point out i decided that he saw a d.c. court or forensic experiment wesen and credible means and disposal to reach 100 per cent. certainty order so also the act that should be

a wake up call to all of us that tweel confronting technology and and i need us tree that is extremely difficult to trace even when reason best and highest resources i dispose of can i just clarify here there have been 2 separate investigations into this forensic evidence that. delivering the same finding maybe i'm. involved only one investigation not only one investigation you need to understand a full and easy view the 4 look i was given to the any show. expert aware of also invented by by the u.s. government to undertake an investigation into the phone of mr bezos. the experts we. contacted to review has

a forensic studies where not able to access your phone the phone has any doubts the phone is is not accessible. what does require some other entity another organization to to independently investigate this get access to the phone and investigate that which organization are great about it i will i will certainly welcome for the phone to be yet again for n.c. green vests to get in touch but to based on the any surely trine during. the 1st team and based on the conclusions on the independent experts we contacted who reviewed the forensics tangy and i doubt very much that we will reach a higher level of certainty recounting the source on the hacking these is why again

i want to insist that we are looking out the fall of my way and out to technology that she's extremely extremely let me and seized upon that extremely difficult to trace we see our current level of knowledge and technology know how and saudi arabia we have pointed out is denying that it was involved at all. yes saudi arabia has denied and this is why david kay and i are now calling for. all encompassing investigation into. the. anderson not only chance basis but more generally. tangible the last year or 2 as being repeated duly sent to be's and 16. on to saudi arabia and of course this is on the face of it linked to the killing of

a soldier who wrote for the washington post thanks actually owned by jeff bezos you investigated that his saudi killing there were a lot of raised eyebrows after the ultimate trial and and the conviction and sentencing of people involved in it but what do these allegations now that that saudi arabia is involved in hacking jeff bezos what do they tell us about saudi arabia and what does it tell us about mohammad bin solomon the leader in lies of the investigation already has a say into the killing of jamal who sort. you know gary what i would rather not comment on in all the known when she tells us about mohammed and sam and. what i would like to point to is the fact that dogs allegations. the crime trends and the center are a campaign. surveillance and intimidation that's the 1st thing in

to go ahead. around the country and those protests expected to continue. despite repeated warnings that the volcano in the philippines could erupt some people are refusing to leave the danger zone and that's put them into a standoff with soldiers who've been ordered to get everyone out jamilah reports from bhutan this province. on patrol the a towel volcano it's been over a week since the initial eruption and soldiers continue to try to keep away residents with homes here i know let me let me know if we're going to die we are going to die here just allow us to go in in there i mean giving up i don't know you you have no for me sure the give me the pound of sun that they receive is on lockdown one of the many towns within the 14 kilometer government declared danger zone its evacuation was ordered because of the eruption danger but that hasn't

stopped people from returning and by not only are we have 10 pegs how are they going to be fed we're ok. exploded. they're stubborn they insist they are safe and they don't know what they're doing it with the police can't stop them. there along the border than 100000 for the b. those forced from their homes because of the threat of an imminent major eruption many are in temporary shelters while others stay with relatives nearby the majority come from coastal villages like this one where hundreds of families depend on fishing for their livelihood many continue to brave the waters no matter how dangerous we reached the coast. and that is that our pain no current and nationalists mail-o. peaceful but it's actually this relative period of call that make people here more

nervous. experts say the apparent a volcanic in the uk to vittie this in mean the danger is over the alert level remains at $41.00 below the highest in just that is there's only been toileted that . really really explode or really well. it is our duty to go back for them and whatever the cause. when they get anything out of the area. it was a well known tourist destination now many areas are reduced to this colorless barren landscape. some are defying the teacher no matter what refusing to accept that the life they've always known may never be the same again. 0 that that is that but on this province northern philippines. at the start of we took you to buy root there were violent protests on the streets we're going to take you back

you know those protests are continuing the holder is on the scene so i know what are you saying where you are me. well such a beirut is a bottle zone if you can see behind me it's continuing the confrontations are continuing we have to move back because anti-riot police told the media they need to move away from the gate because they plan to clamp down on those who have been assaulting the security forces so it seems that there is a decision to clamp down hard a few days ago there was a meeting that was chaired by the president including heads of the various security agencies and the army and what they said was we will continue to support and protect peaceful protesters but we will take action against those who vandalized public and private property or assault the security forces people are angry the anger is only escalating a government was formed late yesterday not everybody sees this government as

a representative of the people the people have been in the streets for the past 3 months demanding change demanding a new leadership so the citizens of this state versus the people playing out on the streets of central beirut central beirut has been a battleground for a week now every single night we've seen scenes like this but today it is quite different it started much earlier the people did not wait before they start. to provoke security forces usually they hold a protest for a few hours before they provoke and start hurling stones at security forces and today it's much more aggressive people are much angrier so it's not clear how this is going to pan out but what we have seen from the anti-riot police is that they are determined to clamp down on on these on these protesters. so you know just explain for us the evolution of these protests because initially when they started they were very peaceful people very united calling for political

change but we've seen this increasing anger and even though a new cabinet has been has been sworn in know that we are still seeing the escalation of this and go what is china odds are among the people proceeds to them so or the actually choose of people on the streets how they how. well people believe that the reaction of the ruling elite the very fact that they went ahead and formed a government which many people here consider as one sided a government which does not meet the aspirations of the people people feel cheated they feel insulted they feel that voices they've been trying to make their voices heard for 3 months now and no one is listening to it people are struggling the a lot of these protesters are young men people who just can't find any jobs why do you and social unrest this is what many feared instability in

lebannon because of the dire economic conditions unemployment is rising businesses have been closing salaries have been cut in and then you have the banking the banks preventing people from accessing their savings from accessing their deposits there's a cap on how much money you can withdraw in a week and the lebanese town the local currency. has devalued on the black market which means it's lost purchasing power and inflation is on the rise the prices of basic goods is on the rise so we've been talking to people here and asking them you know what are you doing and they said well we don't have another choice nobody wants to listen to us we're already dead it means nothing to us to die because we cannot feed our families we cannot build a future so if you can see really confrontations turning much more violent than they have been over previous nights the past week or so you know what is going to

be required for the government to be able to turn around this economic situation we live in no one has relied on support from outside the country. you know the economic crisis that is getting people on the streets and contributing to the cities that we're seeing on display at the city. the state is close to bankruptcy the state is the country is in a state of collapse even the prime minister has said india said the situation is desperate 6 lebanon is facing a catastrophe the country needs help it needs billions of dollars in aid and the international community has not provided that money because they too are demanding a credible government a government that will fight corruption

a government that will carry out the needed structural and economic reforms to the public sector so that the money that they provide will not be wasted what these people feel is that they've been robbed of their basic rights that they keep giving the states and the state doesn't give anything in return this is the 3rd most and 3rd most indebted country in the world and yet the government cannot provide at. infrastructure when it rains neighborhoods streets turn into lakes electricity cuts up to 10 hours a day and it's been 30 years since the end of the civil war and little house changed so for these young young men that you can see they have nothing to lose that's what they've been telling us and what is what could be a turning point what could be a turning point is that yes these are anti-establishment protesters who are versus

the state but now what we are hearing more and more from these young men is that the sunday community has been marginalized and that is the danger in lebanon when any political crisis becomes sectarian and why do they say that because they believe that the prime minister who should be a sudden according to levanon sectarian based power sharing agreement was appointed by other sects and not to their sect so this is could be we could be seeing a turning point and the very fact that it that the future movement this is the party of the outgoing prime minister saddle how do they releasing a statement just a short while ago saying that it is not behind this unrest just shows you how sensitive and critical the situation is in this country. so the holders of this. ruth lives want to just show you what you're seeing you on the screen right now

these protests designed said began early and were received much earlier than she had seen before as you watching you know you see people who have been rolling rocks we've seen windows smashed just as we've been here we've heard that water cannon is being used to try to push back the protests. this is being fought. just will try to push back the protesters to just have a listen to this one moment and then come back to say that. as you can see there rocks being thrown you can hear it in the background. just

heard. people saying good account of. these protests back in the design of his report it is a much more aggressive much more violent protests begin with a much earlier stage and she said this of course coming after you cabinet was in the cabinet heard it's a sore loser the barricades they broke through the barricade a little let me go back to that that we go back to zain what are you saying then though i heard you saying that they have broken through the barricades. yes they broke through the barricades that means they're approaching parliament building i'm not really sure how security forces are going to contain this under arrest we haven't seen these violent scenes since the protest movement began and mid october hundreds of young men clearly very defiant very really not afraid of anything we've been speaking to them they say that we don't care what happens to us we don't care if they detain us we want to make our voices heard we do not think that those in

power the lawmakers their illegitimate they do not represent us they don't think of us they only think of themselves they don't have national interests at stake i'm sorry we just have to move away because the security forces are firing so using tear gas tubes i just just like i told you they managed to break through the just while you're speaking there are you do you. getting close to the public building how close by right now. it's just 100 meters 100 meters down the sally. they're not very far from parliament building and it seems that the security forces are now responding to push them back. this is not going to be easy to come tain clearly you can see how determined these young men are they don't seem to be afraid. of what comes next.

we've been here over the past few nights we've never seen scenes like this. there were usually more contained. focus on just one gate because there are a number of gates that surround parliament square and now they are trying. they're trying. we can see anti-riot police behind us grouping themselves it's not clear what they're planning to do but like i mentioned a few days ago security agencies they they held a meeting and the statement that was released by the president. said that peaceful protesters should be distinguished from quote organized gangs which are bent on sabotage and vandalism coming that statement many people fear that to the security forces that use this as a pretext to use excessive force this is the response from the street has been that

. no we are not organized groups we are part of the protest movement which which is which we have our demands and we want change so we're going to have to see how the security forces respond to this they have come under a lot of criticism in recent days by human rights groups international human rights groups human right. watch amnesty international they have released statements saying that for example the use of rubber bullets security forces have been using rubber bullets at close range and targeting the eyes of protesters a number of protesters have lost their eyes suffered injuries to their eyes so the security forces are also very well aware that the international community is watching and monitoring how they are going to deal with this unrest how are they going to well.
