pacific explore untold and fascinating stories one o one east on al-jazeera. the earth. orbit. a message from protesters vent their frustration with lebanon's leaders as the french president demands reforms. but again i'm a star and this is al jazeera live from doha also coming. these are under cues for using to the rider. there the. u.s. president donald trump heads to cannot define calls to stay away following protests over the police shooting of an unarmed black. a pledge to resolve divisive policies

from the mugabe era zimbabwe office to give back land seized from former white fog . up in smoke rain falls and some fire ravaged parts of argentina bought one of south america's major wetland ecosystems remains under threat. we begin with he said protests in lebanon against the country's leaders and their failure to tackle longstanding corruption protests broke out outside the parliament building with riot police moving in quickly to disperse those crowds taking place as french president emanuel makes a 2nd visit to beirut since that devastating port explosion has been making clear his demands for lebanon's leaders to set the nation on a new course he says failure to shift direction within 3 months risks punitive

measures and sanctions but let's not speak to al-jazeera as in aqaba who is at the prime residence in beirut that's the official residence of the french ambassador where we do expect him to speak a bit later zain i believe back on his mission with political representatives today after his very vocal calls for reform should we be reading into the fact that he's having this meeting at the very end of a trip with a very packed. well mark kroll really there has been a lot of messages from since his return to lebanon his 2nd visit in less than a month what he has been doing really is projecting power and influence he's had a very busy schedule he chose actually when to return to beirut he was the one who set the date september 1 a symbolic day it is the day that 11 on marks the 100th anniversary since the declaration of the greater state of lebanon a proclamation that was made by french mandate a sorties france being

a former colonial power and it's it's not just that he chose when to meet politicians this morning he planted a cedar tree to mark levin and said nationhood he visited the devastated beirut ports he held talks with u.n. officials as well as n.t.o. representatives and then he met the president of the country so really what he's been trying to say is that we are the main power broker in this country where leading efforts to try to resolve the dire economic situation as well as the political crisis but there is anger there is mixed feelings on his visit with some people deciding to take to the streets earlier earlier today as you say now in the last time we spoke just about an hour ago you were in the clashes between protesters and the authorities can you talk us through how that unfolds. well anti-establishment protesters called for

a gathering at the epicenter of the protest movement that's martyr's square late this afternoon they want to say is that no we do not accept the new prime minister who was appointed just yesterday on the eve of micron's i live we believe he's a byproduct of the system it was a political class governing this country they've been in power for decades they appointed him so he is a hostage to them he will not be able to fight corruption and they also wanted to express anger at mccrone they believe that there is some sort of an international deal and in the words of one protester mccraw is trying the same recipe that has been tried for the past 30 years we want an independent government but so the streets is not very powerful at this point in time even mccraw himself has said these people who are in power were elected i am not here to replace them it is up to you to elect a new a new leadership but mccall at the same time hinting and making it very clear that

he's also not is going to use the stick because well if there is no progress on fighting corruption on carrying out much needed reforms to that lebanon is eligible for a bailout plan with the i.m.f. then sanctions can be imposed on the ruling elites our correspondent. in beirut for us we'll be bringing you all the latest from the new lock on speech as it happens thank you very much. well moving on and u.s. president donald trump is on his way to can i should despise appeals by city leaders to stay away for fear of the unrest the police you're seeing an unarmed black man jacob blake has sparked anger in that city in wisconsin baker's been left paralyzed after being shot 7 times in the back tensions remain high following protests and violent clashes there but the president says he's visiting the city to highlight his no one order campaign. one of the reasons i'm making that trip today going to wisconsin is we've had such a big success in shutting down what would be right now

a city that would have been kenosha a city that would have been heard to the ground by now. we're going to really say hello to law enforcement and the national guard and it all stopped immediately upon the national guard's arrival so you know the easy to stop i saw last night where these radical anarchists were trying to. get into the mayor's house and lots of bad things were happening is poor foolish very stupid there well we have john hendren standing by for us with all the latest from commercial where the president is due to arrive any moment now but 1st let's speak trial white house correspondent can be help that she's in washington d.c. kimberly we have heard from president something very dismissive of local officials and commercial but notably not the noun saying violence from any of his support is . i think what donald trump is really trying to underscore as we heard him talking there just now is the contrast of what he sees as 2 different approaches to social

unrest in the united states and we should point out this is something very different from the peaceful protests but it's usually the violence that brings out after the sun goes down what he's talking about is that the national guard was brought in to know show wisconsin where there had been violent unrest but that things are relatively calm now he contrast that to what is going on in portland oregon where there have been more than 3 months of rioting that he believes could be quelled with the use of the national guard if the governor of that state requested it but so far the democratic mayor of portland has not been in support of it so this is really the law and order theme that the u.s. president is trying to underscore as he visits one of 3 battleground states commercial wisconsin being the one he's visiting today ok and lots and lots of electioneering going on here as well law and order an issue we're going to hear a lot about heading towards november both candidates have been really trying to

show that they're strong on that front but with different approaches. absolutely different approach is what we hear from the u.s. president as he left washington d.c. area of the metro area to get on board air force one is a blaming of the media for what he sees a selective reporting essentially that he is accusing what he believes is a liberally left leaning media reporting on the instances when there has been violence by trump's supporters but then being less select more selective rather and less reporting on when it's happening on the other side in other words downplaying the protests that are happening in portland but underscoring the case of co-written house who of course is the trump support of the fired on to out of the protesters in can osha wisconsin so this is something the president is saying is lopsided he says that the media is essentially fueling and doing

a disservice to the country clearly a president has very strong views about this but what he's saying essentially is that it is not in line with what ordinary americans believe that they want law and order he says that it's not just white communities but also communities of color that are demanding the police step up to quell the unrest can be how could that white house correspondent in washington d.c. for us thank you very much kimberly well let's now go straight to commercial and wisconsin where john hendren joins us now john i see the cheney complaint and his family are not on the president's schedule today but they did organize a a peaceful gathering we got us. that's right jacob lake family will not be meeting with the president but they will be here this is this site were jacob blake was shot if you look behind me between that truck and that table that is where jacob blake had parked his van with his 3 children inside of it and was shot 7 times in the back by

a can no ship police officer and this is where his family is gathering today if you look in that s.u.v. over there you can probably see him but the man sitting in the front seat there is the reverend jesse jackson who has just spoken with reporters here. and. what we heard was essentially that they don't want to give president trump a lot of credit nobody here is really a trump supporter but they're also asking people to be peaceful not to cause the kind of damage in the street that the president will be surveying when he arrives soon jacob blake's uncle justin spoke just a few minutes ago this is a little of what he had to say. yeah we're asking people not to be violent not to destroy our community but in the same breath we're asking to stand with the black family come on over here we're not mad at you when instead you're angry and upset and we could see why you would want to burn some down who asked you not to that 1st

that you put up an anchor were asking to raise up high and you did it come on both the blacks were going to some big changes that affect own little jakes over. on there's clearly a lot of emotional tension today we know the governor didn't want president trump to come he's coming on the last but this is a city that voted for trump what sort of a welcome said he expect. that's right if you want to become somewhere the best thing you can do is disinvite him and have a democrat do it but you know he won't even be meeting with the family he will be touring the scene of some of the wreckage he's on the ground now as we speak but the reception he's likely to get on the ground is not going to be especially good because the people who are out in the streets particularly here where he is among supporters you can see somebody is talking in a little news conference over there. this is not from country in this

part of town but to know she actually is can know she voted for president trump in 2016 and then turned around and voted for the democratic governor tony even as in 2018 which tells you a lot about what you need to know about wisconsin it's a swing state and this is a swing city with in the swing state and that's why this is become such a battle line in the presidential election joe said biden wants to win it for the democrats president trump wants to win it for the republicans and so this case has become sort of a national focal point with president trump talking about law and order you heard kimberly talking about that earlier in joe biden talking about the need to reform police and to make african-americans feel better about the laws that govern them and about how those are being carried out the president will be on the ground for a couple of hours and then he's back off to the white house shortly after that very

interesting visit that will be watching very closely indeed john hendren there for now thanks very much from connection with constant. still ahead here on al-jazeera why the king of saudi arabia the fact the coalition forces come on. yemen. and how they get u.k. businesses back on track being encouraged to return to the office but millions just want to. but. how the so an influx of more sure shows another one coming through amman yemen southwest saudi throughout the arabian peninsula says an increase feeding a few minutes in for example about 4 and the potential for thunderstorms over western side of saudi where there are mountains to her refuse to showing up in

salalah and there's not much of a preview providing breeze beyond that in fact anything that more of an off shore breeze and some places look at jerusalem's temperature 39 jordan says it is something of a heat wave going on in the levant or at least this parliament at the moment big masses of showers are certainly of interest to meteorologists and those who don't like hurricanes because this is what they do they form they just slowly west woods and go off to the cape verde islands they do it regularly this time of the year but over land of course they produce some flooding which is like to be the case for example in southern mali but where we had a problem more recently in sudan they were in a sleepy repeated khartoum's forecasts a fairly dry one for the next few days in southern africa is a lot more active now we're still of course in winter so expect cold wet and windy weather but it's not that cold but east west and windy in the western and eastern cape.

frank assessments. like i think some of these are informed opinions there's a therapy on the verge of breakdown many cars are the only every 10 are actually under a defacto state of emergency and critical debate after he does not represent the interest of the libyan people in depth analysis of the day's global headlines inside story on al-jazeera. the the in. and again i'm the star. let's remind you of our top stories here this hour riot

police of quickly moved in to disperse crowds after protests broke out in downtown basically demonstrators voiced their anger over the appointment of a new prime minister who they see as an extension of lebanon's political entities. u.s. president on trump is heading to the city of commotion despise appeals by the city leaders to stay away because they fear for the rest the police shooting of jacob lake last month in wisconsin caused outrage reigniting black lives masses protests . the king of saudi arabia has sacks the commander of coalition forces at war in yemen prince for had been turkey and his son being investigated for suspicious financial transactions at the defense ministry they are the latest members of the royal family to be detained as part of an anti corruption campaign by crown prince abdullah bin selma simon mabon is the director of the richardson institute for peace studies he says the sacking is aimed at consolidating the crown prince's hold

on power. i think it's symbolic in the sense that it relates to what many of us. as a serious failure and of the yemen conflict but i don't think it has so much that do with those duty chip errors or pops there's a useful byproduct of the saudi military via but pertains more. to the i guess what some people are calling the purge 2.0 this continued after that to get rid of the what many see to be the final remnants of dissent against mohammed bin solomon's rule so i would argue that's more about cracking down on corruption and assuring them it been someone has complete power and autonomy in riyadh than across the saudi political spectrum rather than anything reflecting military issues and strategic failings in the yemen conflict as much as it is easy to draw that conclusion what's interesting to know i guess is that many across the

kingdom not at all surprised by this they say this is the latest in a strategy put in place by mohamed bin someone they're not at all surprised that this is taking place now israel has reopened its only border crossing with gaza after returning agreement for her last time to really set her status as a long that border the ceasefire there perfect by cata will allow for critical supplies including fuel to cross into the forest on train correspondent herefore said has more from her through him. israel brings an end to the in century balloons and rocket fire that have been coming out from the gaza strip at a time when they don't really want to be focusing on a military confrontation they'd rather be focusing on the normalization deal with the united arab emirates and of course for hamas they are dealing with a major covert outbreak the 1st community level covert outbreak inside the gaza strip since the start of the pandemic trying to do so under the current situation

or the previous situation with these very restrictive punitive measures imposed by israel in terms of reducing the fishing area down to 0 not allowing any diesel in for the only power station in the strip was becoming pretty much untenable and so that was the opportunity one which most recently was seized upon by the qatari envoy hamas is saying that that that was the the most recent bit of mediation that came through with this deal and under its terms we've seen the fishing zone reopened although fishermen can't go out because of the coded restrictions gaza is on the complete lockdown crucially there will be diesel coming in so the electricity situation is due to go up from 3 to 4 hours followed by 16 to 20 hours without electricity to an 8 hour zone 8 hours of patent $27000000.00 worth of cuts or e money coming into the strip as well what's more controversial and potentially more

important in terms of the longevity of this deal are the other things that hamas is demanding in terms of injury infrastructure projects such as water treatment plants and industrial zone things which will crucially if they go ahead create jobs in an area which is so beset by poverty and unemployment now i still believe the antenna is under arrest what does that escort in the southern city of adonai by security forces they say who is receiving orders from iraq and syria today want to attack in tackle and i thought might come attack counter that 9 people 3 years ago and a bomb attack in istanbul killed 12 people and trying to fix thing. well the french satirical weekly charlie hebdo is to republic controversial cartoons of the prophet muhammad it's marking a trial that's due to start on wednesday of 14 alleged accomplices to an attack on the magazine's headquarters back in 201512 people were killed including some of

it's an extremely volatile and dangerous situation out there but china does not seem prepared to withdraw from indian territory and instead it is accusing the indian side of aggression which is a bit ironic considering that china has 5 times the size of india why would india not regression against china so that's the situation that stands today now strollers government says it's no closer to finding out why one of its citizens has been detained in china chang a wax as a television presenter fed chinese state channel c g t n she's not been charged but she's being held under what's called residential surveillance these training embassy was able to speak with chang through a video link last week and so it comes at a time of calling tension between china and the strain of the coronavirus pandemic . now facebook is threatening to stop users in astray or from sharing news on its platforms that's if a proposed law is passed which would make facebook and google pay local media
