you're watching al-jazeera a reminder of our top stories this hour u.s. president donald trump has visited california which has been hit by record wildfires he denied the link to climate change instead blaming forest management his democratic rival joe biden has called him a climate arsonist. an israeli settler has been handed 3 life sentences for the murder of 3 members of a palestinian family 2015 in an awesome attack rights groups welcome the verdict but say many secular taxpayer one punished. russia's president has pledged 1500000000 dollars to bella restoring a meeting with the country's embattled leader alexander lukashenko has been facing weeks of mass demonstrations following a disputed presidential vote. hundreds of migrants on the greek island of lesbos have now been moved into tents

a huge fire destroyed their refugee camp last week some have staged another protest against being moved to a new camp and want to be moved to the greek mainland 12000 people were left homeless after the of the crowded morea camp burnt to the ground last wednesday stephanie deck is on the on into boss she sent us this update. it's been almost a week now since moria camp completely burned to the ground and thousands of people remain asleep sheltering on the side of the road here in the middle of the island also taking shelter in all of groves it's quite extraordinary actually to see the lack of a cohesive aid effort of any of the organizations here trying to help people put a roof over their heads handing out food or water now the greek authorities have said that everyone here is going to be moved to a permanent count that has been built some tents are up a little further down here but only a few 100 have been moved so far you can see that they are continuing to expand that just down there closer to the sea also very much open to the elements you can

see some of the refugees also walking along many people have tried to take shelter among the trees it's a very difficult situation certainly the islanders have had enough they want these people to go they say it's affected their livelihoods the economy tourism here and the refugees want to go but the message here certainly from the authorities is that none of these people are going to be going getting off this island at all british m.p.'s have given initial approval to a breaks that even the u.k. government admits could break international law but the internal market bill has only passed the initial stage there will now be 4 days of debate it will give ministers the power to modify rules already agreed in the withdrawal agreement on the movement of goods from northern ireland to great person on state aid if the 2 sides don't agree a future trade do. new coronavirus snow was in england prohibiting gatherings to just 6 people have come into force the u.k.

has seen a spike in cases course primarily by people in their teens and twenty's but as lawrence lee reports from manchester there worries that many will ignore the new restrictions the source of term and it's a big one for these 30 years will be taking their final exams but as well as contending with not being allowed into lecture theatres they're also receiving lectures from the government about how they should behave as your health secretary the u.k. government's health secretary has made a series of videos posted on tick talk aimed squarely at young people so what does this group make of it all i think that they get caught message cross where the quicker you guys stick to the rules the quicky can potentially go out again which would resonate with me definite progress concerns leaving this year is actually looking for a job and i think if they maybe move towards the message slightly more maybe it would resonate more of us instead with the virus spreading most rapidly among the young how to control them has become a crucial issue one route is to shut everything down the students union which

should be hosting parties for new arrivals is close most studying will be online and anyone going into a building has to queue and be checked but spend a few hours in a city like this in the most striking thing is that the only people around are the young older people seem to be hiding from them over the course of the last few weeks a narrative has developed in this country that says that the young are basically selfish plagued areas who might end up forcing a 2nd lockdown on the u.k. but it is also the case that the self the university is supposed to be a time of absolute joy for young people to be free to do the things that young people want to do and all of that is being taken away from them balancing those 2 completely conflicting demands is going to be basically impossible the council has been working with the police and the university and they'll be bombarding students with message. does that say any fun left will disappear completely if people don't get it right the message is if we can't control it now why if we can't stop the

spread then actually we risk having further knock dynes imposed upon us i'm not sikkim message that you know if you want to socialize i'm socializing with the limitations are in place at the minute means that those opportunities will be available in the future and the restaurants favored by students there trying to enforce their own codes of behavior as well the government can only do so much the police can only do so much that. the owners cannot can only do so much with the law if you want to bring it thinks down the ultimately is responsible for yourself across manchester alone there are $100000.00 students within a few days they will be here the start of term a huge blow to their expectations and a test of their will power. in manchester. the mayor of rochester new york has suspended the city's police chief over the killing of daniel pruett she said the incident revealed institutional problems in the department 41 year old black

a destabilizing force in the region for counter it was an opportunity to find the u.s. for its mediation efforts to keep our focus on this work and to close the door to increase during the metally it's past time to find a solution to the gulf rift traffic mr it's easier to see this dispute resolved and to reopen cutters air and land borders currently blocked by other gulf states i would like to think the u.s. for supporting the kuwaiti mediation duties or located on that this is of the respect for the sovereignty and independence of this it's got that other foreign policy continues to the present peace stability and prosperity elements that's let's our national values for months now we've heard that u.s. efforts to broker some sort of deal to end the blockade has been imminent and july it was reported that something was going to be signed in at the last minute the u.n. he backed out and saudi arabia to back out as well once again in the last week we've

had a flurry of activity donald trump calling the saudi king followed by a state department official saying maybe they'll be a deal within 3 weeks he said he soon sort of backed away from that and said well he would thing more flexibility in the gauche ations and from what we understand the state department certainly is focusing on one main issue that's overfly. writes ever since the g.c.c. blockade qatar airways have to overfly iran in order to get in and out of qatar this is a problem for the u.s. because that means millions of dollars now flowing into iranian coffers for the overflight rights this has been the focus of the debate here clearly that the focus of the state department has long been to isolate iran this blockade it's getting countries closer together with iran so if there's any movement we believe in we're told it will be in this issue this is the focus and another opportunity for president from to try and show himself as a deal maker an international peace maker intellectual here. well than

a lot of sense at the moment without some explanation that we still looking for i think it probably isn't aliens i'm sorry to say i think the most likely explanation is that this is something that we haven't yet fully understood about the way that chemistry works on venus possibly something to do with the interaction of the atmosphere and the face or something about the chemistry within the crowd layer itself we're reappraising what we know about the other planets pretty much all the time as we find out more and more things i think what i hope from this discovery is it will kickstart more interest into the study of seen us and perhaps we'll see another mission to bring us that will see is actually sending spacecraft into the atmosphere itself to directly solve it which is something that hasn't been done since 1990 and that would hopefully on this mystery.
