attacks just weeks after a landmark is still signed. and evidence emerges from myanmar to military units accused of trust it is against the ranger is leading the crackdown against anti cooper sensors. to ask. but 1st we begin with breaking news from the poor a presidential election has been disrupted by an explosion which has left at least 7 dead it happens in the berry region a vehicle carrying officials from the electoral commission hit a roadside bomb let's go straight to a military suit joins us from a boot. just give us a sense of what we know at this stage. well

the officials of sydney the independent national electoral commission in egypt. in the process of conducting elections and when when their vehicle ran over the improvised explosive device planted by the roadside and 3 people apart from the 7 dead 3 people thought to be said to be injured in that particular incident and with some of them having serious injuries to nobody region which borders mali but can a fossil and been in the public esteem several attacks in the past and that devastating attacks for that matter where dozens of people have been killed in the last 6 months or so including of course military targets that way it by groups that have been crossing the border from money but you know fossil attacks like this one here have been expected actually by officials in the jet a lot of concerns were raised previously or even before the elections that these

groups may try to disrupt these elections with this development now that has been that confirmation that of course the election has been disrupted by the armed groups and other parts of me here generally they lexus went on peacefully with the president and the leading candidates or what are the candidates running for the elections having voted and most of the voters were expected to cast their ballot voted and the rest in the process of voting right now before the polls close after . joining us from neighboring nigeria thank you for that. iran's represents to sue the un's nuclear watchdog says talks with the heads of the i.e.e.e. have been fruitful ruffo gross's this is comes on the day the deadline set by the iranian parliament for the us to lift economic sanctions well iran had threatened to limit inspections of nuclear sites foreign minister javad zarif says the u.s.

must take the 1st step in a bid to strike a deal nothing has changed by didn't claims that trump a policy of maximum pressure was maximum pavia being can also just recently said that policy failed but for all practical purposes the pursuing the same policy they haven't changed the u.s. national security adviser has said that the fate of americans being held in a rein in custody is also a major issue that needs to be resolved we intend to very directly communicate with the iranians about the complete and utter outrage at the humanitarian catastrophe that is the unjust unlawful detention of american citizens have you done that yet we intend to demand it we are we have begun to communicate with the iranians on this issue yes and we will continue to do so as we go forward and our strong

message to the iranians will be that it we will not accept a long term proposition where they continue to hold americans in an unjust and on unlawful manner it will be a significant priority of this administration to get those american safely back home all door search areas in teheran with more on the meeting there. the details of the meetings that were held this morning and this afternoon in the capital are yet to be released there is a press conference that will be held in vienna later on this evening where the director general of the i.a.e.a. will lay out the details of what actually took place during those meetings but as far as we understand it he met with the head of iran's atomic energy organization. cell here early this morning in the is also met with iran's foreign minister mohammad javad zarif they are discussing the issue at their meetings has been about the details of what will happen to those i inspect ours in the coming months after

tuesday's deadline we have heard from the u.s. secretary of state i think lincoln who said the path to diplomacy still very much open for the rain ians it's a very cut and dry matter they want the united states to lift those sanctions imposed on iran since leaving the nuclear deal and 20 we heard from the foreign minister zarif today who said that that has cost iran a trillion dollars so far they want those sanctions relieved 1st then the u.s. can sit down at the negotiating table with iran to discuss how they can come back into the nuclear deal this is what iran wants whether or not the united states is willing to do that is a different question but for iran this point is not negotiable in the coming months before this administration leaves office in june. mike hanna has more from washington d.c. well obviously d.c. watching very closely the developments in the course of the day with the international atomic energy agency inspectors there but certainly is on the

surface of the stalemate and the way the biden administration continuing to insist that iran must return to the terms of the deal before it resumes negotiations in terms of lifting sanctions as you heard iran says it will not it will want sanctions lifted before it's any form of a go situation so on the surface of it it's. ratable but the reality is that president biden has indicated that the routine wants to follow it through europe he wants negotiations to resume under the aegis of the european union together with the other partners in that 20 per diem deal this he stated very clearly in terms of seeing the european union as the overarching umbrella of a resumption of negotiations so at this stage it would appear the biden administration wants to go the multilateral route to restore the relationship rather than do it on a unilateral basis of negotiations. this isn't iran analyst and former senior

political affairs officer at the united nations is also worked on the negotiations with the p 5 plus one and iran he says both sides are motivated to restore the nuclear deal. it is quite possible if the iranians rejected the offer of the european union to host informal discussions to figure out a way for both iran and the united states to come back into compliance with the nuclear deal that iran would be seen as the in fact inflexible party at fault but right now it appears that we are in a situation of a standoff where the u.s. expects the iran to 1st go back into compliance then iran expect the us to reach an agreement 1st in 2018 to go back into compliance by lifting the sanctions i think a mutual mutually agreeable solution could be found because at the end of the day both sides want the same thing and there's political will to restore the original agreement but the choreography is and sequencing is what's at stake right now and i

think what iran is going to do on tuesday would only make the situation worse but it doesn't make a return to the deal impossible in the short run the incentive for the iranians is sanctions already the iranian economy has been contracting for the past 3 years and the economic situation in iran is quite dire in the middle of the cold with 1000 pound a mic so they run as would benefit from sanctions relief if they can find a way of sequencing mutual return to compliance with the agreement with the united states but then in the medium to long term i think that the experience of the past few years has clearly demonstrated that this nuclear deal as it stands it's not enough and will not survive in the next us elections be it in 4 years or in 8 years so both sides would need to negotiate and an arrangement that is amounts to better for better or more for more that is more stable. libya's interior minister has

a bit more understanding of how their ethnic minorities have acted and of the military for so long and we will continue to suffer regardless of our. city or religion but i think when it comes to the range of issues is a bit more complex because. it's very you know it's. hatred against the muslim at the picnic lever here jim is limited deeply rooted in our society so we need to look you know people i hope that people understand that everyone has rights and those rights should be respected and people should be treated with respect and dignity because this is not a religion or ethnicity so i hope that we can move forward like that. thousands of ebola vaccines are expected to arrive in getting capital konar korea after the country declared an outbreak last week on thursday the world health organization
