inner circle of prince hamza bin has seen the house bred of the king who was also crown prince until he was removed from the role in 2004 jordan's deputy prime minister a minute 70 said that beyond a doubt in the circle of prince hamza were coordinating with foreign parties and opposition abroad a plot to destabilize the country with. the state intelligence with already has been closely monitoring activity from his highness hamza surely for some desired by some of the lower and others whose movements were aimed at undermining our stability and security the surveillance intercepted movements including communication with foreign sides on a so-called 0 hour to trigger measures aimed at undermining else to belittle shortly after the arrests prince hamza appeared in the video saying he had been put under house arrest for bit in from communicating with the outside world a claim later denied by jordan chief of staff the prince also took the unprecedented move after publicly criticizing the leadership of the country i am

not the person responsible for the breakdown in governance for the corruption and for the incompetence that has been prevalent in. our governing structure for the last 15 to 20 years and has been getting worse by the year. i'm not responsible for the lack of faith that people have in their institutions. their response to the former crown prince had been sidelined since his removal from power but he is said to have been forging ties with this gruntal tribesman and the loosely organized opposition known as haddock that has been calling for mass protests so far the government hasn't revealed the scope of the alleged plot but some say it's unlikely it was aimed at directly overthrowing king abdullah you can't have a coup or lesser security people involved so i don't think and you know this idea of a lot there is just not true there is there is clearly. an internal issue

that has come out in the public and i think in a way it has turned out not in the favor of some of the people who began this process of arrests it's not clear what will happen to the former crown prince king abdullah said to favor an amicable solution for the sake of the royal family and the stability of the country there are still many questions that remain and answers the government says it will reveal all details in due course but if anything recent events reveal deep divisions within the royal family of a country considered a beacon of stability within a turbulent middle east but at that hamid al-jazeera where let's turn now from a surly winston who's executive director of democracy for the arab world now and she says what's most notable is that jordan's leaders haven't come forward with detailed information about the alleged plot. they haven't pointed the finger

specifically at anyone and in fact it would be very helpful if deputy prime minister somebody would tell us who exactly he's alleging was plotting a coup with the crown prince how does us so that we can avoid unnecessary and false rumors of course there are allegations that time i the crown prince via a vast amount a lot of love is now an adviser to crown prince muhammad and some man in saudi arabia but the truth is not clear king abdullah has been an outlier in the sunni axis that has driven itself so close to israel and its friends in the region. king abdullah has resisted some of the normalization efforts that have really come without condition or any interests of the palestinians and of course this is something that's very important to him we saw the recent scuffle between israel and king abdullah with the inability of his son to go and pray in jerusalem and

so it's very clear that in some ways there's concern the king abdullah will be a spoiler or could be a spoiler between the plans and plots of israel the u.a.e. the main egypt and potentially saudi arabia. plus floods and landslides have killed at least 76 people in indonesia and neighboring east timor him as more extreme weather on the way through to rain caused destruction across the chain of islands in the south with rescue workers struggling to reach remote areas jessica washington reports now from jakarta. these forests in tunisia flash flooding and landslides have killed dozens of people in italy 7 villages and the death toll is expected to rise many families say their loved ones are still missing . as the scale of the disaster unfolds communities are in mourning. this man's body was pulled from the debris people in the video say he was
