8:02 am
home law by itself or another person awareness. so we continue with the white home hope people ga us by the recent law feel when you're ready. really just so on. the 1st possible report, sarah clark is in hong kong. she has more on the cho hung tongues arrest. we've been told that she's been detained. on suspicion of public diving, what is being a legal assembly on june for she had said that she would attend victoria, which is weird. i hold. i'll be so massive, vigil,
8:03 am
year after year. but this year of course has been banned the 2nd time. now, at the time you see her arrested because we were meant to be interviewing her right now at 11. i am a hong kong time, but we received a message that should be detained in financial by the police. now a bit of background about her she the pro democracy leader. she's also the boss chair of the hong kong a lot. and that of course the group that organizes this annual visual. she's also about the other organizes of this rally. they have been to tight and child on the charges that includes lead chucky and he's already in job a child was one of the few pro democracy ladies who hadn't been arrested depending that 2 people have been arrested on fraud. and that includes a child as well as a student later, we don't know how long they've been detained for will be detained. certainly the timing of it because it's clearly it's sending a message to anyone who wanted or was thinking about gathering a victoria part to think twice the difference between last year and this year. this is the 1st time the national security know, has been applied the last year. we attended that rally to cover it throughout the 0
8:04 am
and we saw a number of people rally around a field of victoria, possibly in the and there was so many people live at the police, let them get out. they removed at the bow ties and people could see in that path. now, as i mentioned, li chuck who attended that last year. he is now being charged with giles who attended organizing what was deemed an illegal saying based on the area with huge crowd normally gather the annual candidate digital. we've been there in the past, were hundreds of thousands of people had gathered there to commit right channel square. let's get more in this. we can speak to all can a cod. he's a research on china with m scenes national. he joins us via skype from hong kong, many times for speaking to us. an algebra, why do you think channels been arrested today? hi, good morning. all dog this morning. some journalists ask the police deluca basis of the police, had refused to tell them what was the legal basis
8:05 am
child to has been seemingly arrested for simply telling her friends and the people of hong kong is too light, a candle and commemorate the horrific you went off to take down last month's cortez, given extreme sentences to a political activist or unauthorized protest. the authorities are sending 7000 police officers to stand by for this evening. all these show that the government is doing all they can do. stop people from biking, a candle, coolio, aging, the june fort, and according to the international human rights law, there is no need to seek permission from annual torches for peace. school assembly lighting a candle is not a crime,
8:06 am
peaceful assembly or peacefully remembering any branch that happened to 32 years ago is not a crime. at last he is, vigil was also bound on the grounds of corona virus, but tens of 1000 defied that and went out to raleigh anyway in the park. do you expect the same kind of numbers this year? some sources reported that the police be off the side of the bond vigil aimed so did see off the candle lights we have seen for 30 years may be gone this year. but what i can say for sure is that people will certainly commemorate the june port in their own way, no matter what happens tonight. since the position of this national security law, which bounds criticism of the government, how would you describe?
8:07 am
how would you describe things have changed in hong kong? donation security and low is broadly and very clever it since it's enact meant the government prob, aging politicians, and maine and war says, have been staying that this may, while age donation security, the or dead may. why late financial security law without providing any explicit or specific basis in the text of the national security law itself, which creates sweeping, trimming, effect in the city. do national security low plus the heavy police presence and arrests could potentially deepen the fear m on the people of hong kong. but one of the key mottoes often
8:08 am
moment to pull them up as the movement is be like water. and i believe the moment to be lead just and come up with new strategies to express what they believe in, in one way or another. they always have i'll can, i can research on china with, i'm seen to national speakers. was there via skype from hong kong. thank you for your time. thanks for having franz has suspended joint military operations with molly off to the country, 2nd, coo and 9 months. its armed forces will continue operations in money on their own. it's all positive efforts to pressure the military job to, to work towards a democratic transition. i see me going to was declared president on friday off to ordering the arrest of civilian leaders. nicholas hoc has moved the story from monica. the military gentle car bama thought they had gotten away with no sanctions
8:09 am
and just being suspended from the west african body. the echo was and the african union. remember on sunday there was a gathering in gun knocker, a lead by the got a president. and during that meeting, the west african heads of state decided and told molly that if you want to join back the union in and drop the if you want to drop the suspension, then you have to release the president, transition the prime minister. we're currently on house arrest. you have to organize a government of national unity, and most importantly, you have to return to the barracks and ensure that a civilian authority organizes the transition that will lead to election in february 2022. that was on sunday and a couple of days later, still nothing. what this temporary suspension of french cooperation with the army means is that the by the french forces or the french air force will not clear the way before. there are operations launched by the 1000000 forces. if there are
8:10 am
millions soldiers that wounded, then they won't re, patrick them, back to the hospitals using their french helicopters, nor will they share intelligence with them all the and forces. so this will have a detrimental effect on the security situation in molly. but also they want the cooperation of a french military instructors that are embedded within the, the, the, the ministry of defense insecurity will no longer cooperate with those, those 2 ministries. so. so this is really going to have an effect on the military june to it'll pressure them to try to nominate a civilian government of sorts. well, let's take a closer look at frances involvement in its former colony, france launched a military intervention the 8 years ago after rebels seize control of northern molly declaring that own state. last year, president in manju micron boosted troop numbers in this a hell often increase and attacks by all groups that are currently about 5000 french troops in the region. yet france on its allies have not been able to defeat
8:11 am
them. instability is still on the rise with groups linked to al qaeda and i saw operating out of northern and central molly. and their fears that political vacuum left behind by the k will leave molly vulnerable to advances by those armed groups . william laurence is a former us diplomat. he says frances, me doesn't address the larger issue at hand. it's significant in terms of messaging, both for molly and audience is an international audience, but i don't think it will really be the capitalist to get their leaders to do the right thing. they're, they're operating on their own time table within their own constraints. and within the negotiation that they're affecting with various individuals in groups that could help them keep the political transition on track, which is what they they, they want to do. so i think that the larger issue here is that many of the populations around molly have little feet in the french intervention,
8:12 am
little faith in the central government and are subjected to the groups that we're talking about and increasingly sort of attractive. and at least the stabilizing effects in their, in their own areas. so the bama elements and the french elements going after each other, really doesn't get at the heart of the price. there's been a lot of missed. i think one of them is, you know, how do you target, who leaders, you know, other serve their personal well or with that sort of thing. and how much can you really sanction individual doing the right thing when the obstacles are facing internally are much bigger than anything the sanctions do. one way or another. i'm really not getting the heart of the issue here, which is that there's a massive governance and development problem molly, which is forming thing, all of these rebellions and broke that. and none of that is being addressed by anyone. i think that the simplest way to say is we need more terrorists and not just the sticks the sanction to get things back on track. here as president joe

biden is expanding a list of chinese firms off limits to american investors because of that alleged ties to the military and surveillance sector's. former president donald trump had prohibited americans from investing in 51 companies. while biden's amendment increases that led to $59.00, us investors will have a year to withdraw their stakes when the band comes into effects. reportedly in august, denmark's parliament has voted to establish a refugee reception center in a country likely to be in africa. politicians who voted for the bill said it will detest sodom. seek is from crossing the mediterranean sea of a european commission. the un have criticized the plan. charlotte bellas has report in danish parliament. politicians have taken strict immigration policies for asylum seekers and voted to make them tougher and a 70 to 24 vote. politicians agreed to move asylum seekers who arrive on danish
8:14 am
soil tor reception seemed to in a 3rd country outside europe. with your applications would be processed more than 50 percent. that arrived last year. they didn't have a nice folk seeking asylum. they bird microns. that's a life. and i understand, but i think that makes sense, but that's just not enough to get the residence permit to stay in the center. right. social democrats who back the bill say it will protect asylum seekers from being exploited by traffic is and making the mediterranean c crossing as they won't make the journey if they are likely to be rejected. but refugee rights advocates say any humanitarian benefits are misguided as asylum claims can only be filed at the danish border. it's nonsense to say that it's going to stop c crossings because it will not be possible to apply for asylum in the center. so
8:15 am
people have to cross the sea anyway. so that's just ridiculous to call it kind of humanitarian. united nations refugee agency wound last month. it could start a race to the bottom. if other european countries follows dean mark's policy would be a huge game changer. if other counties would follow up is not like the, the pulses of thinking can be externalize and saw say, cookie, provided that on, i want to be out, but don't bring to all of county. he just going against the concept of the european commission also criticize the move, saying out sourcing asylum claims is not compatible with a you lose person. think of a fund raisers fundamental questions about both the access to 1000 procedures, effective access to protection. it is not possible under existing e rules or proposals under the new packed form on migration. and this item

marks tightening immigration policies have come after more than 21000 asylum seekers arrived in 2015. it now has a goal of 0 asylum seekers. and in april declared parts of serious sage, it is found to provoking residency permits for some serene roofing genes. it's unclear where denmark anticipates having this 3rd country reception center, but it did sign a memorandum of understanding for future cooperation with her wander in april. charlotte bellis al jazeera. fill ahead on al jazeera benjamin netanyahu vows to basle coalition of unlikely allies that's expected to oust him after 12 years in office and pushing conservation on the map. the man made islands in the netherlands that have become a wildlife sanctuary. ah,

hello, hot and dry sums up the weather across the middle east as per usual, but even say here, temperature is well above the seasonal average. you wouldn't expect to see temperatures into the high 14 touching 50 celsius in parts of back that queue weight as we go one through the next day or so. so we're running a good 7 or right maybe 9 degrees above average here. 50 celsius, a possibility and q wait as we go one through saturday. kinda have to route as you can see, that warm dry weather coming down across southern parts of the gulf of aidan as well. we'll see some possible if you want to, to shower into western parts. if yemen joining up with a few showers that we have in to the opium highlands, not too many showers to the east of that, but wanted to show its still a possibility. the majority of the showers that remaining just to the west of the riff valley. have you down pause there just making the way into the gulf of guinea . southern part of nigeria could see some local as flooding over the next couple of
8:18 am
days as we pushed further south. cross a tropical bell while the showers not as widespread as they should be, to be honest with you. come further south one or 2 shells just around them along the pushing down towards northern paths of most and bacon. that's how the i was just hug the east coast of southern africa over the next few days with the morning with them and the just, they were well to read the for iconic song. she nicea area and a few dollars meeting the people in the places the side and hearing from the song writers and musicians who composed the songs for north africa on which is era oh

a play you're watching al jazeera mind if on top stories this, our police in hong kong have arrested to pro democracy activists including the organizer of the annual vigil for the victims of china's gentlemen square crackdown in 1989. thousands of police are expected on the streets to prevent people from gathering to mark the anniversary. france house suspended joint operations with molly enforces depression. the minute she genta into restoring a civilian government. i see me going to was declared president on friday on ordering the arrest of civilian needed. you has criticized denmark office, parliament approved a plan to start
8:20 am
a refugee reception center in the country outside europe. it would be used to screen potential asylum seekers. opponents say it's aimed at getting rid of refugee heavy, rain and strong windsor, hampering efforts to prevent a sinking container ship from causing further damage to shoreline. because coastline officials embracing for possible oil spill the fi on board. the chemical laden vessel took almost 2 weeks to put out. environmentalist is still very concerned about waves of plastic, pallets washing ashore in once already shoreline because was ever man made environmental disaster. that's good. and i have to now fernandez who is in colombo for us now. when we spoke yesterday, there was a lot of concern about the bad weather, how it would further de stabilize the ship. what's the latest that you were hearing? was so far as you can see around me,
8:21 am
it's absolutely bright. but that having said that, it can change any moment like 45 minutes ago. the skies were done. there was a drizzle. so it's a really sort of a touch and go situation here today is a much sort of a brighter day, but the sees are fairly choppy. i did speak to the navy spokesman a short while ago, and he said so far there isn't an update from the salvages. we bear in mind that the navy, specialist divers, did try to do a dive yesterday to inspect the keel of the ship, which had hit the sea bed part of that queue. also believe to have got stuck in the sort of modern sand, which is the sort of feature of the sea beds. now the ship is just over here to my left, straight into the sea. we're talking roughly about 9 kilometers of the beach. so that's the situation people very, very concerned about the very real potential of it oil spill. but so far,
8:22 am
we're just waiting to see if there are any signs of that becoming in and i wanted to pick you up on that. how, how concerned all that oil could spill from the ship? how much oil was on the ship for monday, we've heard differing reports in recent days. i mean, one of the sort of official sources did tell us that there was something like 322 tons of oil on board. now, yesterday we heard from the columbus port authority harbor monster. and he said that that consolidation with experts with savages and with those who walk with these kind of situations, had indicated that the intensity of the fire that raged for 13 days abode the n v. paul did lead them to believe that most of the fuel on board had been burned off . but even the harbor monster was quick to say that he couldn't take that for
8:23 am
granted that he has to work with the worst case scenario that there is still oil on board. now the issue is that so far from what we had seen the tank, the sealed fuel tanks had been holding. we hadn't seen signs of an oil slick and oil seepage, but that is a very real danger. particularly as the vessel is submerging just the control area. and the superstructure that is above the water, the rest of it having been submerged and filled with water, water exactly will happen to those tanks, will hold. how much of structural damage from those blazing fires on board? how weak the structure is and whether it will keep up to holding that oil within. so those are very real concern, concerns for which people don't have on. so as of yet. okay, thank you for that update mcnelson and is their 1st live in colombo. israel's long

the serving leader is battling for his political survival after a diverse mix of parties announced they would form a government. it could be the end of benjamin netanyahu 12 years as prime minister . but he's not going down without a fight, accusing his rival necessarily. bennett and selling out to a palestinian is writing policy, which is by the proposed government for the 1st time in history. bennett is a far right ultra nationalist who would take over as prime minister for 2 years if the coalition is approved by the israeli parliament. high force at half the latest from western wisdom. the question is how much nothing. yeah, who can try to peel away some of these right wing as a who for now at least remain part of the coalition in, in utero as it was trying to put it together. and also the question is, when this will take place now, the head of the, of the opposition law paid, who has formed this coalition and is decided to step aside and allow natalie
8:25 am
bennett to go 1st as prime minister. he wants to try to unseat the current very netanyahu friendly speaker of the house and have a vote on monday to replace that speak with an opposition speaker, who would then facilitate this vote more quickly and restrict the amount of time that benjamin has to try to get in the way of the coalition being formed. there are questions now as to whether natalie bennett's party is entirely up to that there is at least one member of his party who is expressing unwillingness to do that. so even that in part of the 1st step toward getting this vote through looks in questions that are certainly still plenty to playful for benjamin netanyahu. and he's been doing all he can to try to put reactions between the, between the constituent parts of this coalition. already the united states says its support for israel will remain on class regardless of who leads the country meeting his israeli counterpart. and he gowns defense factory,
8:26 am
lloyd austin pledge to replenish israel missile defense system of last month conflict with on palestinian factions. but he said the security of palestinians must also be assured. now going forward, we speak lasting security for israelis and palestinians alike. and i want to stress the importance of reducing tensions in the west bank and jerusalem and of supporting humanitarian and reconstruction assistance for gaza. that benefits the innocent people who live there. let me also stress at the department of defense supports president biden go biden's, goal of a 2 state solution. now a court in france has heard how a teenager who posted anti islam comments in social media received a 100000 hate messages, including death threats that seen people on trial for online harrison and the case has renewed frances debate on free speech president in my new macro has shown
8:27 am
support for the teenager known i have 1st name mila, saying the law allows the right to criticize religion. runs groups have a key from the state, abuse against muslims during his crack down on what the president called islam a separate system. another and has a long history of reclaiming land from its waters for crops and settlements. now, one of its latest additions, the cluster of 5 islands and the countries not just lake, but it's animal life and not people who are moving in. to fasten reports from marco watson, the dutch colonizing land began, but this time they created themselves 5 years after digging up mud and sent from the bottom of the netherlands largest lake. this new islands can now be added to the countries map, forest ranger them, crete, so how blubbering filled and clay turned into solid soil and it was actually a dangerous. we went in a compartment with ropes, but somebody got stuck like this. my sofa went to
8:28 am
a free times like this in. it's not that nice and now you can stand there. yeah. but you have to be cautious. the marco, what an islands have been built in the mock, amir, which itself was created artificially more than a century ago. i close enough the southern sea to protect the dutch mainland from flooding. as a result, marine life nearly disappeared in the lake. the islands created out of silt are expected to be stored in lakes ecosystem. we interfered with our natural landscapes heavily in the netherlands. it also made us brought us a lot of prosperity, but you see that the main ecological structure of the netherlands. well, it had some damage because of all these works. so this is, this is a way to improve this again. and it seems to be working the islands are quickly turning into the country's largest birth sanctuary with ever said be it readings and even flamingos, finding the way to the new land. the most important lesson is that when we get the
8:29 am
naked opportunity to do their thing, it works so we can destroy nature, but we can also restore it a make nature. how does the engineer manage to turn money into solid land that can carry thousands of kilos? has fascinated research is worldwide and remains a mystery today. dozens of research and working on the islands to find answers to the most important question. why can i now stand here and not sink into the month? fishermen will make a living of the laker, protested against the creation of the islands. they see their fishing grounds disappear quickly and refused to believe the government plan will re 5 marine life with him. if they would have created one island as a breeding place for birds that would have been fine, but they go further and one more and more they are throwing, sent everywhere, even at the most important breeding places for fish. the government admits that
8:30 am
more islands are planned in the future, but incense that nevertheless fish stock will increase that have to be more facial causes. first, if you say cell phone, heck us out of the water, so that a heck where we call fish anymore. that's a point, but we said well, after i was completed, you will see that there will be more fish after being criticized spending 70000000 euros on new land solely for birds. the government, as decided to open one of the islands for tourists in the future, they expect more than 100000 visitors every year, potentially jeopardizing the same paradise they try to create in the 1st place. steadfast in elgin 0, marco watson. ah, this is al jazeera, these you taught stories beneath hong kong have arrested to pro democracy and.
