6:07 pm
not wearing his military uniform, but wearing a suit and tie, showing that he is not just a representative of the army, but of them all the people. and while that discourse could work and play up to parts of the 1000000 population here who support him is going to be difficult to convince the, the west african nations. and remember in the past, rob, they, they've intervened when they feel that some member states or people are leaders and from, from the west african nations have tweak with the constitution. they've done it in, in gambia, when your, your job a overstayed in power. so they've done it also in going to be saw in the past, so they have the tools to do so. what's different here in the multi case is the fact that we already have a contingency, the biggest and most expensive un peacekeeping mission. we have also the 4000 and french troops add to that the g 5 to help, which is a band of, of, of african nations fighting where the,
6:08 pm
the 1000000 military has failed fighting off armed groups. and yet again, we've seen today was there is political tinkering over positions and who is going to lead a molly? well, there's a tax that continue to, to, to take place. and the latest attack that happened just 200 kilometers away from the capitol by my co really signal is how far or how defined the arms groups are in the face of, of, of, of, i see me go to the rule from nicholas. thanks very much indeed. that's nicholas hack, talking to us from bumble as a scramble for political deal making underway in israel after 4 inconclusive elections in 2 years. the final deadline is coming up on wednesday for the latest effort to form a coalition government monitoring politician. that's how the bennett is in talks with a centrist party leader. now if he succeeds, you could replace prime minister benjamin netanyahu was also making last minute moves to hold on to power. a lot of diplomatic editor james base is live for us
6:09 pm
from west jerusalem. james, what's the latest and all of this? first of all. well, the big question is could the nation yahoo era be over? he is the longest serving prime minister israel has ever had. and he's looking very close to no longer being the prime minister. but it's all about coalition forming, remember that was an election interest, israel the 4th in 2 years, and no clear winner, no obvious, also from the electorate. and so it's led to this period of, of trading between the various political parties. what we're going to hear in 2 hours time is from natalie bennett, who is a right wing politician. he served as a minister, a number of ministries. he was once briefly the minister of defense. he also was chief of staff to benjamin netanyahu. now though he's very much his political opponent and it's looking like natalie bennett,
6:10 pm
was the king maker in these elections, but he's actually going to end up was the king as well because he's done a deal. it seems we'll find out for certain into our with yeah, the piece from center left party that would have natalie bennett serving as prime minister and then mr. le peed later rotating into that job. it's not a done deal. there are other parties involved in this. the nation, yahoo of course, really wants to hold on to power, wants to stay as the prime minister this row. and he knows that if he doesn't, that his various legal problems and court cases against him, we're going to get much, much harder. and james, of course, the backdrop to all of this is about 11 days worth of violence that occurs between israel and how much the group that that to control as a gaza, particularly looking forward in the event that benjamin netanyahu does step down from power. what does that do for the talks between israel and the palestinians?
6:11 pm
well, if mr. bennett is the new prime minister, it's worth telling you what his stated views are on the situation because he's been very forthright. he believes that should not be a 2 state solution. he believes that should not be a palestinian state. he believes that should be no restriction on settlement building. so a very hard line right wing position. some would say a little similar to mister netanyahu, but he states his position on these things. very, very public where mister, yahoo sometimes doesn't say these things out loud. the difference between his position and what will actually happen if he heads a government is the fact it's going to be a coalition if he does get this coalition together and it's going to include left wing policies as well. so i think what's going to happen is they're going to have a government they manage to for made that actually won't address the issue of
6:12 pm
palestine and palestinians at all. they are going to ignore that issue and concentrate on other issues. this may well be good news for the bite and ministration because you remember the by the ministration. their new policy is to try and prove the life of palestinians rebuild in garza, but not actually to restart any negotiations towards a 2 state solution for palestinians. the way it's looking right now the things can change very fast in this part of the world. the way it's looking right now is that the central issues of the palestinian question are not going to be addressed anytime soon. in the meantime, the ceasefire that has been arranged is seeming to still be holding a diplomatic efforts. are still going on. what's happening there? well, we've got gabby african nosy, these railey foreign minister on the 1st trip for some time to cairo, meeting his office and on the summer shook re we also have the egyptian chief of general intelligence who's been meeting israeli officials,
6:13 pm
including prime minister netanyahu in jerusalem. and then has been to see the palestinians in ramallah, no one because i think these are intelligence related issues is giving us a clear picture of what's being discussed in those meetings. but i don't think they're a coincidence. i think they are all about trying to cement the cease far and what to do next, because the coming under some pressure, remember last week, as the blink in the us secretary of state was here, and he wants to find a way a mechanism to rebuild garza but he's made it quite difficult because he said at the same time there should be no benefit to mass in terms of any building to money going to her boss. so i think they're trying to work out a way possibly to do that. james, thanks very much. indeed, that's our diplomatic. as a james base in western wisdom, there's been a shooting in the state of florida, and these 2 people have been killed and 20 injured in the city of miami. please say

the president of democratic republic of congo says the situation in the east is serious, but under control, that's for africa. the most active volcano is threatening to erupt once again. it's been one week since the gong goes center rivers of lava streaming down a hillside, the storing homes and up routing many, nearly 400000 people nearby go may have had to flee and president finish. kitty is advising them not to return. the web is in 2nd, where many people have taken refuge, determines have continued, so we were sleeping in the city go my last night. once again, we were woken up by some of the biggest trim as we felt yet the building that were staying and was shaking windows rattling. they hadn't repeatedly over the course of several hours. that's causing quite some alarm and the vulcan ologist assigned to say that a sure is the means that there's going to be another option or not. that's why the
6:17 pm
evacuation order is stayed in place. and that's why thousands of people have fled, including many here to the town of soc is about 20 kilometers from going along the lake shore, away from the volcano. these churches become home to hundreds of people. you slept inside for the last night. a lot of the cooking outside here now, but they're not much food to cook. they say they've been desperately short of food and other supplies since they arrived here. some of them had their homes destroyed others and had to make difficult decisions on leaving because if they do abandoned their homes, what's been happening, the people with speaking to say that they get looted. so some chose to stay behind the flag following the evacuation order to try and find safety that we spoke, some of the people in goma to be affected by this. let's take a look at the story. people who lost everything salvage what they can from the pile of smoldering hot rocks. a few days ago this was a river of lava. it came,
6:18 pm
gushing out his mountain. you are gone days africa's most active volcano into the city of goma, in the democratic republic of congo notices. samuel kimberly's neighbourhood is gone. his house caught fire before it was engulfed. all that left the charred remains of a tree, he once planted to mark his land level cargo. my c volcano was lighting up. it was a panic, almost everywhere. so i took my family, put them on my motorbike and sent them into town. i stayed behind to keep an eye on the situation. stacy, people we spoke to who evacuated early, say their houses were looted. that's why some stayed to protect homes and livelihood until the last minute. not everyone got away in time. no hendo bon yanni, nikolai has been missing since the adoption. he used to try groceries on the street from a stall just like this one is
6:19 pm
a young man in his early twenties. his family put up the posters around the neighborhood, lifting a home just down here. and there fear is that he was engulfed by the river of lava when it came crashing through the city. and now it's turned into a pile of sharp heavy rocks. it seems the chances of finding him now a slim says the initial eruption, new earth tremors started and they just haven't stopped. adam van hendo and his team of vulcan ologist have been monitoring them. he's barely slept for the last week. tremors came before the pastor options. they're trying to work out why this time. they started after villa me when i call my son too late at night we started feeling the strong ones on the day of the ropes and there was no sign of trim as nobody filters. it was that night and the following day when people started feeling those earthquakes, nobody knows if that means another option is coming. so parts of the city have been
6:20 pm
declared a red zone. more than 400000 people have fled to other towns. many of them, the sleeping rough couple, we left as the authorities told us too when we arrived. the 1st problem was no food and no water. so we decided to come back. then we found that everything had been stolen from our house. so we agreed to stay in this reds and whatever will happen. we prefer to die here instead of going somewhere else. the province has been under the control of a military governor for the past 3 weeks because of ongoing conflict with armed groups in the countryside. the army has said, help is on its way to the displaced people swathes of the countryside. and parts of the city have been devastated. nobody knows if it's over yet or not. malcolm web al jazeera goma in the democratic republic of congo. robin george andrews is a vulcan ologist, and author of the book super volcanoes. he says, the city of goma is it risk of future eruptions. radar systems that are used to
6:21 pm
track the shape of the ground have kind of detected an injection of magnetic kind of under the city itself and around the been i shows the light which brings you know, the risk of really unpredictable kind of explain robson's when the macro mixes of water and as well, and potentially the unleashing of some of the knocks of gases in like itself, which can ex 6 people. so magnetic can also just know a rough it can often inject on the ground spaces and no rustic cause down loses point the but it might so just all that risk alone is worrying enough to cause, you know, up of a 1000000 people evacuating because of the geologic sang of this volcano. there's some interesting news happening in the region. this is part of africa. there's actually slowly buffering every day being split into, into different directions, and then 20000000 years. they'll be in your snack. i'm probably because i'm
6:22 pm
probably because you have the willing play him admit of material from deep within the you get from any way chemistry for the lava. here is a real risk in this case actually unpredictable explosion that happened along the lake shore work has been done. looking at the things when the mac mix is with the water that it's just the acts of the mike mixing with the water. it can create these again, like i'm pretty sure that i know bombs going off on the ground, so that really unpredictable. you know, they tend to get off warning funds before we begin happening. so yeah, that's, that's the real warrior i think into these is when the time comes from iran and panama seized on suspicion of illegally transferring oil. iran stock called the n t horse and its crew have not been scored out of indonesian waters upon a manian tanka seized at the same time, was also placed on friday. the captains of both vessels were sentenced to a year in prison for causing environmental damage. but they were released on probation. i said vague has more from techline. well,
6:23 pm
we know that the tankers were released just weeks after finance jawad reef visited in denise meeting with senior officials and the president. now after those meetings, the vessel was not mentioned, or that we were told was that bilateral relations were discussed and also a standing up to unit actually us sanctions. that's what the iranians were saying. now, the statement from the iranian national oil company today has said that the tank was released thanks the efforts of senior officials and the foreign ministry. they said that the tank, it will continue on its mission and we will return to iran was that mission is over now. iran is under us sanctions, especially it's oil and banking sector. and iran tends to do is sell it oil below market value to attract countries. and one of those countries is china. now that 2nd tanka, although it's a panamanian flag vessel, is managed by a company in shanghai in china. so it's understood is that iran had probably sold
6:24 pm
this oil and the oil has been transferred to this 2nd vessel. and the initial, the initial charges against the captains or the vessels was that they had not displayed the flags that their tracking system had been turned off. and one of the tactics that iran does use to stop people tracking it's vessels is turning off those tracking systems for iran will be very happy that its tank has been released because or these oil tankers can be worth and it's cargo can be worth millions of dollars, meanwhile, more talks and aimed at reinstating the iran 2015 nuclear agreements have resumed in vienna global powers. i've been holding talk since april in a bid to bring the us back to the deal. iran says it's optimistic and the agreement will be reached, although it's wanting serious issues remain last week around which to deal with the us. you fair watch talk to continue to allow inspections, if it's new fear sites for another month or marks. fitzpatrick is director of the
6:25 pm
nonproliferation program and the international institute for strategic studies. and he's joining us from richmond, virginia by skype. it's good to have you with us on the all, just 0 iran for a long time. it was really digging in its heels and refusing to budge when it came to any sort of negotiations other than removing the sanctions entirely, the tone seems to have changed. this seems to be a level of optimism and willingness to make these talks. work is not a surprise. it's not a surprise, but we haven't seen the end of it yet. and although iran has been talking optimistically, i still don't see a key concession that iran will have to make. they still seem to be talking about demanding that all of the sanctions imposed under president trump be lifted. and that's very unlikely to happen because some of those sanctions had nothing to do with, with the nuclear deal. they were sanctions, for example,
6:26 pm
because of human rights violations. there were sanctions because of, of iran interference in us elections. and those sanctions, i really don't think will be lifted. and they don't really matter to iran economy but, but the supreme leader had said all sanctions have to be lifted. so his negotiators are still trying to find a way to interpret his words, to allow them to accept some compromise. i was talking to a former us negotiator who dealt with iran fairly extensively just a couple of days ago. she was suggesting that the binding ministration, when it comes to these talks, is actually more focus on the mid terms next year. and actually it's not as invested in these talks, as one might expect. for do you think the biden administration is prepared to go to make this work at if you like the minimal level? oh, i think the biden administration has made it very clear that they want to restore the j. c p. away. this was a, a priority for biden,
6:27 pm
in the campaign trail. now he didn't move on it quickly and when he more or less waited for a month and a half that gave some observers the sense that it wasn't as high a priority for him. but they made some pretty important concessions agreeing for example, that many of the non nuclear related sanctions imposed by trump would be lifted. they're just digging their heels in on a few of these. they've also made concessions in terms of not making a huge issue out of the fact that iran has advanced technologically and it's research and development. there's some technical issues there that are not quite clear, but i think i think the buy in team certainly wants this deal, but they don't want to appear over eager. we've got an election coming up in a run and i told her i see looks as though he's leading opposed to possibly be certainly a candidate for president. he doesn't like this nuclear deal from
6:28 pm
a runs perspective. how difficult is that going to make this carrying forward if these talks do manage to reach some sort of agreement? so any ron, it's not so important. what the candidate for the president has said, what's important is what the supreme leader thinks and, and acts upon. and the supreme leader has allowed these negotiations to go ahead. he hasn't yet allowed the keep concession. as i mentioned, that would be necessary not to demand every single sanction being lifted. if he does allow for that, then i think whoever is next elected, the president of iran and june 18th elections will go along with it. the united states had kind of taken a position that it could, it would be okay to wait until after the election and deal with the new administration. after all, they're the ones that have to implement it. but i think probably everybody realizes
6:29 pm
if they can get a deal before the election, you know it, it would be useful to do so. mark fitzpatrick, we appreciate you as always joining us and i'll just say, i'm thank you very much indeed for your time. happy to talk to your still, i had a knowledge of why one of the world's most polluted cities has launched their campaign to promote electric vehicles and edible insects. the e. u gives to go ahead to place and drive the yellow mill work on the venue. the protein and the only sock has been fines and faces being thrown out of the french open. joe's going to have the details and so forth. ah hello, i'll tell you what, we're dialing up the heat, sir. cross the middle east, you know, the highest temperature i could find was toward kuwait's where, oh,
6:30 pm
look at this, we hit 49 degrees and the average is 41, so well above average. and you know what? i think i think i can wait may hit 50 degrees, we do have a small setting up across the gulf. so that's going to swirl up the dust for the gulf states over the next few days. so that easy, dusty sunshine can be expected. ok, i talked about that 50 degrees, right? i think on tuesday it will come for kuwait. those strong winds will help the temperature as well as the conditions will persist on wednesday off to turkey right now. and we do have a batch of what weather rolling across the boss for it's really going to play most of turkey as we head toward monday. but i think the better shot at some heavy rain for it's the ball will come on tuesday windy as well. and the potential is there for some thunderstorms, through the tropics of africa. the heaviest rain will be got bon cameroon, right through to the gulf of guinea. and now i'll take you to the south. were the western cape just getting clipped to a some showers.
