ah ah ah ah midnight political drama and israel opposition parties, ford collision that look set to our prime minister benjamin netanyahu for the 1st time, a palestinian israeli policy joins a power sharing arrangement. the united arab list will support the government from outside. ah,

hello money. this is al jazeera ally from jo, also coming up. sure line can naval experts trying to contain the spill from a thinking ship that's causing it's was marine disaster love us secretary of state anthony blinking came here to central america to talk about climate change security and migration. among other things, people here on the streets have more pressing concerns, primarily a surgeon corona virus. i'm gabriel is on doing san jose costa rica. that story coming up. i alas, met coalition deal by israeli opposition. policies look set to end prime minister benjamin netanyahu 12 year rein. yeah. yeah. le pete has announced he has a support needed to unseat israel. longest serving leader. his coalition brings

together parties from across the political spectrum, including the palestinian israeli party, the united arab list. how the, how need reports from western them should be it was with a phone call that your la pete formerly informed israel's president. when revealing that he made it barely an hour before the deadline to form a government expired. did she should were long and tough. but in the end, let the manners to couple together the government for change. 8 parties ranging from the left to the far right with little in common except the desire to as caretaker, prime minister benjamin netanyahu, and n 2 years, a political instability. for now, the new government will 1st the far right, you mean a party leader, naphtali bennett, as prime minister, he is an advocate of illegal settlements expansion. and the next station, w e. p is the one that told the president he had the mandate to form the coalition

is not going to be the new stuff for the next. at least the next 2 years. it's natalie bennett, leads a much smaller party but became some sort of a king's making, going to be the time. and so for the next, the next, the next 2 years. so in many ways, this is the kind of the axis in the middle, the heart of the government and the relations between us will be the benefit. so in the past, the ups and downs are going to a larger extent, determines the stability of the government. but didn't you clearly sure couldn't have come together without the support from the most unlikely of political allies. went to the best and his left make united arab list got the cover. i can just say an agreement with yellow p, like in former governments, we've agreed on many issues that were served, the interest of our upside and provide solutions to urgent problems. our society faces in various field is the phrase for palestinian israeli. even though our best

will not be part of the government, accepting support from our best is a thorny issue for now. study bennett, with far right politicians, already declaring a government that relies under support of a palestinian israeli block. next step is a vote of confidence by the method that should take at least a week. in the meantime, benjamin netanyahu a formidable political survivor, who's also facing corruption charges will do is best for the coalition to break up . if not, he will become a relentless opposition leader or that that, i mean, you are in west jerusalem. so you got a cat is the washington bureau chief of could the daily newspaper. he says coalition has surprised many and israel this time around the latest party really about amazon bass ram. but was able to basically make this

effort for bennett and the speed basically flow and really go, you know, all the way on almost all the way you know. so it's very significant in that sense . now we don't know what kind of deals they have made, where they joined their ability or with mr. bad. we know that the one, the security there was services. there was a lot of things. the community of israel was any citizen that we don't know what kind of a deal with the coalition. you look at all these 8 parties and they have all different agendas. it is almost a recipe for the total dysfunction. when you look at this and make up, it's a model collection. we know that the bennet is, it is a fierce settlement activity. was a leader and a little bit movement here with our to the right, the benjamin that anyhow. so no, that is not going to work with with other members of the coalition. so i believe

are from 1st look, you can see that this coalition is probably different to fail. we probably see another political crisis and another election probably before. then it's term in 2 years, is up. salvage expired, so running out of time to avert a maritime disaster of sherlock because coast, a large cargo ship containing chemicals has been burning for 12 days near colombo. it's already polluted surrounding waters and beaches. but if it thinks marine biologist say the oil leak would be devastating. charlotte bellis reports. after 2 weeks of burning of sure lank, his coast, the in the express poll is sinking the vessel still home 350 tons of oil and its fuel tanks. if the navy and salvage experts can't keep it afloat, it will devastate the surrounding waters a marine life. the ref, it's on wednesday,

ended with the ship stern sinking to the ocean floor. may never, you know, not in there. it tells you if the ship sinks the oil on the ship will lead to the ocean and the beach and our fishermen will lose their jobs. we cannot allow that to . the in the express po was sailing from india to singapore carrying a load of chemicals in plastic when it caught fire last month, the ship was carrying nearly $1500.00 containers. many were destroyed in the fire. others fell into the sea, polluting the water, and large stretches of sure lank as beaches. soldiers were deployed to clean up tons of plastic pallets that washed up on the coastline. the pallets themselves have already created one of the biggest environmental crises here in decades. these are really tiny and picking color and they look like fish it to a fish marine, but then animals and they inject them. and these can really, you know,

talk the pollutants into water and become really toxic. and these chemicals can leak out into the body of the marine and consume it. and if marine life is under threat, so we shall anchors fishing, industry authorities have already imposed a fishing band along 80 kilometers of coastline, affecting more than $5000.00 fishing boats. the ship is dealt the death blow to our lives. we can't go to the sea, which means we can't make a living. chill anchors. government has promised legal action to seek compensation from the owners of the singapore flagship. let me get you to fill out the, you know, similar incidents have taken place in other countries. when that incident took place, those governments have taken steps to get compensation. we hope to get compensation in accordance with local and international law. we will never give up on the effort . the immediate concern is how to avoid a massive oil spill. that would turn this environmental crisis into a disaster,

with the stir now stuck on the seabed. ha salvages planned to do that, is unclear charlotte bellis, osha 0. let's get more unless we can speak to jump ahead. she's an environmental scientist. she joins despising from colombo many times to speaking to us. and i'll just, sarah, how bad is this disaster from an ecological point of view? extremely bad because basically the other she got stuck is really the cautery. and the fishing grounds are very close by. and the gumbo that happens to be an area that, that is a huge amount of fishing happening. and then also we have lagoon. and so basically that is, that is going to cause a tremendous amount that we can only be off for the fishing community, but also the greater sadness for us to call you because 3 guys looking for to do them. and i do not really understand how we are going to have them when we

destroy our natural resources, especially because indeed sure like has some beautiful beaches. let's talk more specifically about the damage that can be done by these chemicals. like nitric acid, how. how do they impact the marine ecosystem already that are that a lot of fish coming up, you know, on the loading onto the cost be, but i just collecting this fish. and then basically the find also that there's a lot of balance, the plastic balancing the use and you say them all the fish that turns out floating . and then you know the worst scenario. but these bad says that the orient drums and also be have a big issue or $81.00 contaminated batter's hazardous declared is that happened is mcdavia a bad day. mess us. do i mean none of us know, what do you mean?

it's a huge speculation as to if these happened to be real has to this can we goes and believe, call because that is also battles of nitric nitric acid and we've been corrosion be so very soon we're going to have a huge disaster. we're just looking at some of the apologies, john, we're just looking at some of the pictures of some of the marine life that has been killed in recent days. that is absolutely devastating. let's talk about how widespread this damage could be. i mean, obviously there's when this current, how far could these toxic materials spread really want to the best you can be ready to allow j b and then the people at the moment, collecting plastic baby bottle. so the question come see, said if there is any college of the see the biggest damages

the color raised and also to the plan. and then of course the chain we didn't see it because she was looking forward to doing to helping the climate change issues. and today we find that, you know, you have a whole already live looking at own. and you know, the degree data, you know, contributing to climate change. so this is not something that we as the environment the scientists would like to see. and then, you know, and then also the mangrove. i mean that the breeding grounds of the bronze and the shop, if there are, it begins to seeping dad, then we will have another disaster. so at the moment you shut down the country that people on the road. and so we do not know many people don't see the problems that

happening, but wants to come to open up again. and i think it's going to be hard for most of us. so what can be done to limit the scale that can anything be done? now really, it's a little bit too late because all of the content is on the bed. and then now the only thing we do is to the diagram to go in and see what's there, right? the damages and to see how we can see them. because we will try to take the already out of the company. i'm prohibition of the use to do this. well, i think they got to be good the faster. so i would be happy if the government cause for the spurts to come rather than i stepping the shoes. because i think we already made a mistake by even writing more love in the coming draw waters because we didn't have the money neither the at the knowledge of how to manage it. so that's how the

doctor came about. and i think right now they want the best thing the government can do is to be exposed to come in and handle where there was duration to them. money, thanks for your time and devastating story. i jumped that para environmental scientist speaking to us from colombo. thank you. still ahead on al jazeera and i and venus nasa announces new missions to explore the closest neighbor scott hiler in thailand were 2 ancient artifacts haven't returned from the united states where they were on display. cultural officials are hoping that this sends a message to museum around the world. ah hello, they, hot and dry conditions continue to dominate. across the middle east,

the gulf states are seeing temperatures, klein, saudi arabia, in particular, seen temperature is above average, 44 degrees in riyadh. and it's a similar story for iraq. 47 degrees in baghdad, but have a look at q 8 as we go into the next 2 days. temperature is edging up to 50 degrees celsius, so some pretty intense heat on the way things are looking cooler as we edge towards the south. oman, seen temperatures, dip down musket, nestling into the mid thirties as we move to the horn of africa, the things are looking rather cool across somalia. and d. c. o p sion, some showers affecting the ethiopian rift valley. but for the wet weather we have to look to the gulf of guinea as we go into friday. nigeria, seeing some of those rather intense showers, but the wet picture really is in south africa that eastern coast seeing a weather system that's bringing with it some wet and windy conditions. and that'll affect southern areas of mozambique. we could see some localized flooding here,

where those down pools aren't particularly heavy. well, the western coast of south africa, things are cooling. we've got a wind from ag, doctor kerr, keeping things cool. who's in the next episode of science in the golden age? i'll be exploring the contributions made by scholars during the medieval period in the field of astronomy. copernicus owes this day to these medieval astronomers from the golden age. actually in many ways with the computers of the day. you can use it to find the time you navigate science in a golden age with jimmy kelly on a jazz ah

ah, your out their mind stories us, our israeli opposition leader. yeah, luck. pete has informed the president. he has the support to form a new government ending. benjamin netanyahu is 12 years in power. right. when leader natalie bennett would be prime minister 1st followed by lucky 2 years later israeli coalition brings together a policy that has won the support of the palestinian israeli party. the united arab list deal still needs a parliamentary vote before a government is sworn in a cargo ship of thinking off the coast of sher lanka, threatening an ecological disaster caught fire 2 weeks ago. and it's filled with several 100 tons of whale. the european union envoy coordinating talks on reviving the iran nuclear deo believes and agreement will be

reached next week. indirect talks between iran and the united states about fully returning to the 2015 nuclear deal between ron and major powers are expected to resume next thursday. negotiations have been taking place since april a large fire has broken out in a refinery in solvents, ron, the blaze sent a thick plume of smoke over parts of rawlins capital so far that no reports of any casualties in want a separate incident, a navy ship caught fire and sank in the gulf of them on a bank. has the latest form to her on the officials here have rudo sub because they said that this is a technical issue. it's too early to assess how much the damage will cost, but the official agency news agency for the oil ministry has shown a video of the oars minister benjamin as i, as i got to walking towards the fire,

then he addressed the camera saying that the refinery hadn't been that there would be no shortage of supply and the refining would be back on track tomorrow. but fishes have also said that the only hope is to contain this fire until it runs out of fuel. the fuel in question is 20000 barrels at that storage depot. that apparently caught fire. i'm hoping that they can contain it. now this is one of iran, largest or refineries. it refines right to over 200000 barrels a day. that canceled 15 percent of the country's refining capacity and officials have asked residents in the south of that are on here to keep keep the streets clear. so emergency service can, can access that site. but what is interesting is, in the last 24 hours, we've had a fire on iran largest worship that sank in the gulf of oman and this fire, this refinery. so far, officials are saying that both incidents accidents the pan american health

organization says governments across latin america failing in their response to storing corona virus infection rates and says misinformation, i'm mixed messages all being allowed to proliferate, not even being encouraged. the organization says it's particularly concerned with the situation in brazil, and haiti in cases will rise further without urgent action. us sex, your state, anthony, blinking has wrapped up his 2 day visit to costa rica where the focus was mostly on migration. but as gabriel, and as on the reports from san jose, most costa ricans have more pressing concerns right now. and diplomacy with the u. s. costa rica is witnessing a cope with 19 crisis. the number of infections more than doubled last month 267000. and the number of deaths 810, was the highest since the start of the pandemic. a 2nd cope wave worse than the 1st

is keeping away most tourists who usually flocked to this country. and for jimmy hernandez, a van driver and tour guide that is meant he said little to do these days. but in order, a tourism right now, because of the pandemic, has gone down almost 40 percent, it's affecting almost every one some days. we can't work other days, we can. so it's affecting us a lot. people say the situation everywhere is bad. so many places are close like businesses, so many people can't work and unemployed. so this pandemic is so difficult how it's affecting people financially, costa rica as a country of 5000000 people. of those only 11 percent have been fully vaccinated. and well, that might not seem like a lot compared to most other countries in central america. it is according to the pan american health organization, the percentage of people fully vaccinated in el salvador is just

a little lower. but then that figure slips to just under 8 percent in panama, and the rest of the region lags way behind in belize, it's just 2.6 percent of people fully vaccinated. ponderous, 0.4 percent water mala, 0.2 percent. and nicaragua, we're statistics are unclear. it's believe almost nobody from the has been fully vaccinated. the united states has promised to make 80000000 vaccines available globally. good morning everyone. one of the us, but in it's visit here this week, the secretary of state antony blinking, said it would be another 2 weeks before details can be announced in central america to help can't come fast enough gabriel's on ho. i'll jazz ita san jose costa rica unions in columbia, taking part in a nother strike the country's seen massive anti government demonstration since april the president,

even to k house deployed military forces to the city of connie. at least 3 people were killed in increasingly vine and found off. approaches were initially stalked by an over tax reform, others underground fees and the capital budget rallies are the smallest seen since purchased. we can the 1st sign of fatigue that we've seen. i'm part of the protesters that have been coming out practically daily. they usually responded massively to the call of the protests that leaders for the faith of strike. this hasn't been the case again. i live here in the capital. bobo tab. there are other gatherings called for later in the day, but it's clear that the more than a month came to the process, people are beginning to feel some are feeling tired of being out every day confronting the police of having dealt with so much

violence. so part of the police response at times also from some of the protesters and all of this is happening at a time when the negotiations between the leaders of the process and the government are not moving forward. this by reaching a pre agreement that they were, they have there now more than a week ago on the security guarantees. the protesters are demanding to star for them on the go. she ations with the government, the government agreed to that, but never signed that document yet. because they are requesting that all the roadblocks that, that remain in place in the country, especially in the south and south west of columbia that have had the big consequences in terms of shortage. it need to be lifted for those stocks to at to begin at least $136.00 students. it's still missing in nigeria,

often on group attacks and a slum school into gina. in the state of michelle on tuesday, one person was killed and another critically injured. parents have been reunited with some of the younger children who are released. security and intelligence forces are searching for the others now enough as announced to new missions, both of them to venus, which is nearest planetary neighbor. there will be the 1st u. s. lead missions to venus's atmosphere in more than 3 decades. your space agency put a spacecraft around it in 2006. now nasa hopes to map it's rocky surface uncover if the solar system pulses planet ever had an ocean. well, the 2 were bostic missions are expected to launch between 20282030. we hope these missions will further our understanding of how the earth evolved and why it's currently habitable. when others in our solar system are not

planetary science is critical in answering key questions that we have as humans like, are we alone? what implications beyond our solar system? could these 2 missions have nasa scientists and have a gosh says best a much more to learn about venus. when you think of nasa, we think of mars and mars landings, but we often forget that there's another, another dining table which is green us and it's a fascinating planet we know of a little of. so the temperature on venus is more than $300.00 degrees centigrade, the surface temperature, it is still volcanic, really active. it is still tick. tock picked on equally active. very interesting. the. there was a signature of a gas called foss feed, which might be the hint of possible life on venus, so that this call an ounce meant of to mission mission. so the 1st mission will

just go through the atmosphere and then measure various characteristics of various days, looked at most and finally, before crashing will take a picture of the surface. and the 2nd mission is going to go around venus and take pictures of the surface and map the surface in detail. so i think it's very exciting and i think right at the end of the deck in 20282030 range. it will change our understanding of venus. and the other interesting, very interesting part of us is see on art we talk of lean house effect up venus might be a case where the house effect happened to absolute conclusion. so the on the carbon dioxide is less than point one percent on venus. it is 96 percent. so it might be what ut, when look like if greenhouse effect went into a runaway mod,

a number of artifacts from thailand have finally returned home after they were stolen decades ago. that return was welcomed by culture and finance officials in the capital. and they want this recovery to be one of many more to come. got jaila has a story from bangkok i missing for more than 6 decades homecoming for ancient hand carved artifact from north eastern thailand. unveiled at bank cox national museum, the 2 sandstone lentils were once part of religious sanctuaries built nearly a 1000 years ago. they were stolen and smuggled out of thailand in the 1900 sixty's during the war in neighboring vietnam. architectural pieces from the days of the commander empire were displayed at the asian arts museum in san francisco. they were secured as part of an effort by thailand, fine arts department. it took 4 years low men, but here we are giving up the artifacts that were exported illegally,

especially if they're a part of ancient architecture. and there is an ongoing process to recall $32.00 artifacts from museums across the united states. from more than 500 years ago, i was one of the world's largest cosmopolitan areas, a hub for trade, culture and diplomacy. it was captured and burned to the ground by invaders from what is now me and mar it. then sat mostly vacant for 100 years. i was the capital of the same kingdom from the 14th to the 18th century. the archeologist here are hopeful that the attention garnered from the returned. artifacts will help them in their quest to find missing statues and historical pieces. most of the valuable relics in the city have been looted over the years and most likely in private collections, including the heads removed from scores of statues of buddha. one of the, i think by publicly telling the story and raising awareness about the missing pieces of our history, who knows,

we make it an important lead from someone who may spot a missing artifacts when they are travelling abroad. so the hunt will continue to research in awareness to bring back what museum officials here call the pride of the nation. not only for their beauty, but as a representation of pass prosperity and the roots of ty, history and culture, got either al jazeera, our youth, the silence sicily. mount aetna has continued a series of recent eruptions, spending plumes of ash on to 6 kilometers above the level. now the fountains also reached height 7 to 400 meters. there was no impact on the operations of the nearby catania international airport. mon and aetna is europe largest active volcano? ah, this is out there. are these all the top stories? israeli opposition? leader?

yeah, a lot. pete has informed the president. he has the support to form a new government and benjamin netanyahu 12 years in power.
