a diplomatic page and show united front disaster butler al jazeera brussels. we're national criminal court chief prosecutor says crimes against humanity may have been committed in the philippines during president rodrigo to touches so called war on drugs. on monday, the court requested permission to open a full investigation. government data shows more than 6000 suspected drug dealers have been killed since 230 took office in 2016. but rights group say that figure is closer 230000 or smaller island organs. joining us live from manila, just bring us up to date with the, the background to all of the she miller. well, rob, that means that the i c. c, since 2018 has been looking at a large amount of public information, as well as supple of reports, complaints and supplemental reports submitted by families of victims. of that there

is so called war on drugs, as well as human rights organizations, human rights lawyers and some members of the opposition. in fact, yesterday, the organization that has been assisting members of those who have been killed in police raid operations in 2016 also said that they have submitted a 4th supplemental report to the international criminal court. that includes testimonies and evidence against the pair to the said that the 3rd this should be tried for crimes against humanity. and they've also requested the i c c to issue a warrant of arrest. immediately, prosecutor been to the also says, in the same release that the acts committed by police were similar to the acts committed in our city from the period of 1988 till 2016. the turbo city is the city where do 30 wrong as me you're for decades. and it also suggests

basically that you know that all of these killings have been state sanction. however, rob it remains to be seen whether the pre trial chamber will actually approve or deny the request of the prosecutor been sued. ah, she officially retired today as prosecutor and brick and korean can, will be taking over starting tomorrow. is there any indication of any sort of reaction from the government so far? well, the president himself already made it clear that the kids government will deny entry to any eyes to see investigator or any representative, an international human rights body that will be coming to the philippines to investigate his so called drug or, you know, even the government, it's so what's the death as at least $7000.00? since the 3rd, the launch is so cool, drug and wards. these are deaf during police operations. but rights groups actually

believe that that number is actually quite conservative and that could go as high as 27000. now, but there they have already withdrawn the philippines from the rome statute and by extension, that means the international criminal court. but what we've seen to be is that no, you know, unilateral withdrawal, well can actually stop the icpc from conducting investigations. shamella, thanks very much indeed. jim allen, doug, i'm bringing this up to date from manila. well members of congress and the us of how the moment of silence is the number of covered 900 deaths. their approaches, 600000 democrats and republicans stood in the steps of the capital building in honor of those who died. the u. s. accounts for 15 percent of the worldwide cone of virus death toll, but it was more than 40 percent of the population fully vaccinated. the death rate hasn't dramatically slowed since january. my county has moved from washington dc.

president biden making reference to that in terms of saying, it's tragic that large numbers of people are still dying. but at the same time, the fact that the infection rates and the death rates are dropping so significantly as the vaccination rolls out, shows that there's a possibility that the virus is now being put on the run and figures from throughout the united states show very simply those states in which more people are getting vaccinated, the infection rates all lower. the problem is, is that it's very sporadic geographically throughout the united states. for example, the states with the highest vaccination rates as the month in the east. everyone in the top 9 is an eastern state. the states on the bottom of vaccination rates all happened to be in the south. i'll cancel, places like that. and also which add is another complicated component. there appears to be the political element because all those states at the bottom of the

table in terms of registering vaccine happened to be republican. so this is a critical issue given the fact that you now have nearly 50 percent of americans being vaccinated. that's the concern is that this may be reaching a peak, some content that all those who want to be vaccinated have already been vaccinated . so the figure may now stay static or rise very little in the weeks and months ahead. so the idea of reaching that figure of 70 percent by july, the 4th appeared exceedingly unlikely. the british government has delaying its plan to ease restrictions in england by a month. the final state of lockdown was due to be lifted next week, but a rise in cases linked to the foss bedding delta variant, which 1st originated in india, as prompt to the government to push back a full reopening for brandon reports from london. would you like a home testing test kits being handed out in kingston market? square this barbara south, west london, one of more than 20 across england,

where sharpie, rising infection rates, a prompt, intensive surge testing to identify and isolate cases. the steepest increases among young people and school children groups which haven't yet been vaccinated. statistically, they're less likely to become seriously ill. the concern is about the various katie . we want to try and keep the case rate as low as possible, having the virus spread thing because we know more spreads more likely to get more mutations and more variance of the virus that may actually escape faxing. and we don't want to see that at side in the market, scrap basket entertains that passes by with music venues close to the past year. tim o t has survived on loose change and a part time job. the latest postponement provokes a weary shrug. emotional responses, i want to take gigs again. you know, i mean, i want to go out and want to do i live in florida and the logical responses like

back at the start, look down i was, i was criticizing the government not being tough enough. you know, people were dying and it will be, i'll be hypocritical now to say like, come on, let me play games. you know, i honestly, i don't know, june 21st have been to freedom day here in the k postponing. it has undoubtedly been a really serious dilemma for this prime minister with his libertarian reputation. and as the european summer has arrived, the appetite for mixing and socializing has already increased. but the advice from his scientific advisors was stock continue to unlock as planned, and hospital admissions would rapidly reach the peak seen in the 1st wave last year . by being cautious now, we had the chance in the next 4 weeks to save many thousands of lives by vaccinating millions more people. i once the adults of this company have been

overwhelming the vaccinate, which is what we can achieve in a short space of time. we will be in a far stronger position to keep hospitalizations down, to live with this disease and to complete our cautious, but a reversible roadmap to freedom. more than 56 percent of adults are now fully vaccinated and extending restrictions into the summer months is testing public patience. drifting may be enjoyable on the river, but not in business or politics. pull brennan, era. kingston, u. k. still had an order of why the un refugee agency is under fire for collecting personal information over your refugees who fled to bangladesh. is controversial. march of flags is given the green light. why it could be the 1st real test for the new government? ah,

ah, it's time for the perfect journey, the winter sponsored by cattle airways. hello, that we got some very heavy right into central and eastern parts of china. the moment the plumb rains, the my, you front company located the fairway north ashley area of low pressure will continue to just pull its way for the race which dragging that rain out into the china sea. just running across the far south of the korean peninsula. heading towards que shoes, southern parts of japan, since lizard panels are seeing some lobby showers. as we go on through the next couple of days, the possibility some localized flooding system makes its way through. it tells right back back towards beijing more hearts and humid and wet weather rumbling away, more sundry down pools coming in here. then as we go on through the week, founder is shabbas ph across the philippines lobby showers. there was a good part of indo china for much of malaysia,

discussion. this dream on out is there. oh, the a want to go to 0 reminder of our top story is this our president joe biden to reaffirm the united states commitment to nato and marks a major shift from his predecessor, donald trump. during the summer, members of the allies toughen their stance against russia, advocates, china of being a security challenge. prosecutor b international criminal court has requested permission to open investigation into the death of a lead drug dealers in the philippines. she says, crimes against humanity may have been committed during the government drug class.

members of congress in the us have held a moment of silence as the number 19 deaths, their approaches 600000 us accounts for 15 percent of the worldwide corona virus. death told me and was deposed later on, so cheap is expected to face more charges. on the 2nd day of our trial proceedings began on monday, behind closed doors. sushi was charged with breeching covered 19 regulations, illegally possessing walkie talkies and breaking import export rules. to other charges including bribery were due to be read out on tuesday. the carry penalties up to 15 years in prison. so she's been under house arrest since the military coup . in february the united nations refugee agency is accused of improperly collecting and sharing personal information of rocky refugees to fly me and law after a military crackdown in 2017. a human rights watch report says,

since 2018, the un high commissioner for refugees registered hundreds of thousands of refugees living in bangladesh comes using photographs, thumbprints, another biographic data. then it gave that information to bangladesh as government which shared it with me and a possible repository ation. but the report says the u. n. h c did not complete the required full impact assessment, and it failed to get permission from the refugees to share the data with me and law una, she has denied any wrong doing offer more than this report. a spring in bell case. villa. she's a senior research with the conflict in crisis division at human rights force. thanks very much indeed for being with us. what are the risks that the refugees could be facing if this information was passed back to me and my well, unfortunately, we know that some of this information was given to me and more bangladesh said

earlier this year that he had handed over the personal details of 830 south and timmy and mar to be vetted by the government for return to the country at the moment, bangladesh is not forcing anyone back to me and more, but more has said that at least 42000 people on these lists are greenlighted for return, and if the returns were to begin, you know, these people are at risk of being on the list for returns. in addition to that, and yet more has said that those who are set to return will be on track to receive something called a national verification card. these are implement cars that are in yet more for years, have rejected because they said undermine their claims, that they're actually nationals of myanmar and have full rights to the citizenship . those who found out that their names had been shared with me and more that we

spoke to. they actually went into hiding once they were told that they had been green lighted for return, because they were so for fearful that that, that might force them to go back to me and mar bangladesh in the past. and correct me if i'm wrong in this, but i understand that it has made no secret of the fact that it can sustain supporting refugees for a long period of time. and they've already been there for a significant amount of time. and that it's intention, or at least it's hope, had always been that a majority of the refugees would be returned to their country or at least moved out of bangladesh. the process that we've been describing seems to be a logical part of that process in order to be able to identify people who can be returned to me in law. so could you explain to me where the you and hcr seems in your eyes has failed in this regard? well, the key issue is, is one of informed consent rowing refugees when they left me and more were fleeing

crimes against humanity, ongoing acts of genocide. and, you know, they select the country because they wanted to leave for their own safety and security now in they are to return to me and mar, it really has to be, you know, a request coming from them themselves. when they had their data taken by you and hcr, this is part of a more general registration process by the u. n. agency to give them access to the most basic and essential services once they had arrived in, in bog, ash. and what's the government in bangladesh issued for each of them, which is the smart card with some bio metric information attached to it. and in the context of that you will see are decided to also register these individuals for their data to be sent to me and more. now what we found in our interviews is that the people we spoke to, all except one had never even been up by,

by you and hcr stuff when being registered in the field, whether they agreed to having their data shared with me and mar. and i remember very well one man i spoke to who told me he described to me how upset he was after leaving the registration area. and he had been given this english only receipt from you and hcr staffer and he happened to speak english and couldn't read it and saw on the receipt that it had a little tick mark that said yes, i have agreed to having my data shared with me on morning that i would've never agreed to that i do not think it's safe to return and i do not think it's safe for me and mar, forties to have my have my data and to know that i'm in bondage. but he felt that there was absolutely nothing he could do at that point because he had already registered because villain is a senior research here with the conflict in crisis division of human rights for we appreciate your joining us and i'll just, you know, thank you very much indeed thank you. thousands of people have been evacuated from

their homes after an explosion at a chemical plant in the us state of illinois. massive plumes of black smoke can be seen for several miles away, but emergency workers say there is no danger to if quality a ground level firefighters planned to let the fire continue to burn edges. new government has approved a controversial march by far right nationalists. a day after natalie bennett became prime minister. the groups planned to walk through occupied easter was once old city on tuesday, which could reignite attentions. palestinian factions have called for a day of rage against the march stephanie decker reports. it's the 1st real test for prime minister. naturally bennett and his new coalition, the so called flag march, which right wing nationalist drew his group views to mark jerusalem day when israel occupied is truth in the 1900. 67 will now take place on tuesday. and many fear it

could read night tension. it's a demonstration of power. it's a demonstration of control over the police, over the palestinian people. and the day it says, you know, we have been monitoring deployed for years and we have lots of lots of video showing that the pull it says is actually a demonstration of incitement. of lacy, susan ah, the march was initially delayed from it's original date in may. it was cancelled just as people were gathering because rockets were fired from gaza as a warning against holding the event. and another delay from last thursday, when police withdrew permission fighting security concerns, the former prime minister benjamin netanyahu then booted up in a cabinet meeting, stating the march should be allowed to happen, and also police chief barrels turned to ruth. it's an awful time in all these, all these tensions does board the clashes in the board. the rule are still there.

you know, we are still trying. so he'll from what we had been going through just few weeks ago, this area around damascus, gate and occupied history. from has been a flash point during recent tensions. now, palestinians t this march as a major provocation, how mass and other group have cooled for a day of rage. quoting for policies to come here in response. i, my family owns a bookstore here in east jerusalem. he tells us to settlers know very well, this is a provocative act, but that goes beyond that. i think we have to look at the psyche of the government . the government claims them as a capital united. i mean, why do these people say the sets are celebrated, the invocation of them, because there will be a candidate if a parliament that the blame all the listening to be united in 984 are believe and hence, it's also a political point. it's a political act, it's a political stand, it's a government cent political point to prove. despite the march for the 1st time not

being allowed to pass through damascus gate. and through the muslim quarter of the city, it is still being allowed to pass through occupied in jerusalem on the main road next to damascus gate. it's an area seen as a communal heart for palestinians. have masses warned this could cause an escalation. and these really police have increased security not only here in jerusalem, but israeli army has sent extra soldiers to the occupied west bank, its prime minister indefinitely, bennet 2nd day and office leading a fractures, coalition of opposing ideologies. many will be watching to see how he handles tuesdays events as a possible indication of the type of leader. he will be with stephanie decker, al jazeera in occupied east jerusalem, southern 6 round of nuclear negotiations around the way in vienna days before iranians go to the post to choose their next president. all sides hoped to reach an agreement to revive the iran nuclear deal before the government in tech, ron leaves office and early august. this is about

a report from the capital and what form policy challenges. the next president will inherit, has not gotten gone. it was june 2013 when a relatively unknown clerk mobilized a nation, has sandrani ran a campaign full of promises of a better future for all iranians. and on july 14th, 2015, his nuclear negotiating team managed to secure historic when by finalizing a nuclear agreement with war powers, known as the joint comprehensive plan of action, the man in charge of the negotiating team. foreign minister mohammed giovanni the reef, returned home to a hero's welcome future of the ran. but the victory was short lived. before iranians could see any of the benefits of the nuclear deal. the 45th president of the united states was elected and promptly withdrew from the agreement. donald trump then impose economic sanctions on iran, as part of what he called a maximum pressure campaign,

to force iran to renegotiate the deal. but officials and tear on refused and began to limit their commitments to the nuclear deal. initially, the j. c. p. away put restrictions on iran's nuclear ambitions in exchange for sanctions relief. but the u. s. maximum pressure campaign ended that now many are asking whether there be any drastic changes in iran foreign policy towards the u. s . administration. so one of the biggest issues is the next bill. this is a decision at the level of on the stablish and not the administration itself. so if a new administration, most likely a conservative one takes office to me, it seems that the changes will be tactical and not in a strategy way. however, the tone, as well as the methods might differ to some extent the number of events, including the fascination in november of 2020 of one of the highest ranking nuclear officials in the country. mosse and factories other have hampered new negotiations

. the conservative lead parliament forced the government to limit its cooperation with the international atomic energy agency as a result of the killing. since then, there has been a temporary technical agreement reached with the i e h r, until these nuclear talks, which a conclusion in my last report, i have indicated that we have not been able to make that kind of progress. we were expecting to be able to make it on a number of issues. iran's nuclear program has long been a point of concern for western powers. and since its advance to its highest enrichment levels of 63 percent concern among the international community has also reached its highest level. this phase is supposed to be used by the 7 president. so how do they can change? but it's mainly being used by one candidate running and city council. it's a sign of the move here in the capital about the election. but a positive outcome to the talks in vienna could offer economics really are wrong.

and a huge political victory for the new president door safari alpha 0 to ron prosecutors in argentina have begun questioning the medical team that cared for argentinian football style. he will not have donna before his death last year. 7 health professionals, including his personal doctor, a being investigated for manslaughter on down a, died of heart failure. 2 weeks after having brain surgery last month, the board of experts found his treatment was inadequate, and said his medical team had acted recklessly after the hearings. the judge will decide whether the case should go to trial. ah, this is all just over. these are the top stories president joe biden is renewing the u. s. commitment to nato and marks a major shift from his predecessor during the summit. members of.
