was discovered in 1962 fishing and diving words, main sources of income. in this film we go back over the last 500 years of all 90 history of tribes born rebellion and colonization and explore how and why still plays an important regional role today. oh, it's really as trying some dollars in the fence to tax in the see saw came into both just weeks ago a hello. the whole rahman watching all their life, my headquarters here in the whole. so coming up us president joe biden is in geneva for a pivotal meeting with russia. vladimir putin with cyberattacks and ukraine on the agenda. also on britain name all says it's holding a tax on the military, but there is the 10s of thousands displaced by the fighting together. at last,

the public campaign held 3 united states relying confound leads seeking asylum. ilse trailer. ah hello, welcome to the program. israel has carried out the 1st and strikes on garza since a ceasefire came into effect less than 4 weeks ago. its military says war planes attacked hamas target south of garza city and cone eunice. that's after in century balloons. we're flying from garza into fields in southern israel. well, we'll get more from how he falls that in west jerusalem shortly. but 1st, that's called over to human and said in garza, and what is the situation like there on the ground this morning considering the residence of garza had been quite, i'm sure unsettled by israel's military response. overnights

will be for hearing because district are very much registrated with the military because they consider a violation of the child inspired between amman and israel. and could regarding that command, did not hold to the flag marsh yesterday by any rocket lunches from because of strips. because we hurried to through eas, really need you all to call is policy official. your thing that it gets you mediator is very much out tomorrow. and let's say practice some pressure on how much to restrain it. responding on this flag. more suspect was provoking to vote for the fall as thing in the us today, and we're not responding in rockets and israel retaliated

what is called the incendiary balloon, lunching from the gaza strip by rockets that strike mostly units in the 1000. god strips many parts of high units where it strikes yesterday at many recalls as well. it brought back at very much them the fear and frustration to the residents, the rain guard stuff. it's especially the since the front seat fire that has been for almost 3 weeks now. nothing on the ground has really changed for the residents, the gods. they still live in their teaching. they still live in their deteriorating life condition, a very few power hours a day because of the shortage of the fuel. because israel does not allow the fuel to enter. also the shortage of water medical supply and so on goes bananas. so basically, people here are very,

very much frustrated from such and that they consider it was very much very specially in this fragile time. thanks so much for the update from garza. now the flavor of ben garza followed a cycle flag march unoccupied. east jerusalem by far right israeli nationalists, the valley marks the day that israel began its occupation more than 50 years ago. the palestinian prime minister called it a provocation. stephanie deck a report from occupied in jerusalem. it sparked protests, the streaming into the heart of occupied in jerusalem. hundreds of the far right is really national. you know, why the controversial march marking jury day when israel occupied east jerusalem in 1967, delayed twice because of tensions on the ground. look at the

nation with your patient will be the thing eviction and shipped to us on the night of rural patient in babylon, in the only victims in the, in the 15 and the. 7 policy in groups of course, good day, a bridge, but the police made sure they pushed palestinians right back clearing the entire area this to take place. this is the image so that the far right ultra nationalists want you to see flying. the israeli fire in the heart of occupied you through the jewelry, provocative for the time. and you know what's on the co those that there is no victory or the fact that for the 1st time and bring it out to march to damascus

gate. and do the most important israel beat off the policing around the march to more obviously presence than in recent years. on the 2nd day of this new government and emit warning that this could reignite tension. it seemed clear that orders been given not let the situation get out of hand. after almost 2 hours, they were moved on and it seemed the risk of re escalation of violence as so far been avoided. stephanie decker 0 at damascus gate in occupied east jerusalem. was able to hurry, full city with truce limit how i mean, what we read into these as strike sold sort of these really government 2nd full day and office. well i think can we get into that? they are maintaining what is a sort of a, a shifted position in terms of the israeli military. and it's will to try to act in a potentially a more militaristic way than in previous rounds,

such as this that there has been some kind of an assessment along those lines. as we heard from you to the, the in century balloons. they did light some 20 fires in southern israel, and so i think it was, it was going to be some kind of response on the other side of the balance sheet. it does seem that largely empty training grounds and, and t areas were struck. so that is within the sort of metric of, of these exchanges on the lower side. certainly nothing like we saw during that very intense 11 days of warfare in may. and so i think the signals are that neither side is yet ready to escalate things to that kind of level as yet, even given the nature of the march injury slim that we saw on tuesday in terms of that march, it in itself was a test for this new government and very broad ranging government from far right to far left and is ready political terms. and so we've seen the government allowed to

go ahead, try to restricted along the lines that stephanie was talking about, but still people with chanting death, the arabs burn the villages. there was a lot of very unpleasant racist language being used. and that's something that the foreign minister, future prime minister of his government, whole jayla paid was referring to saying that it was intolerable that people should be waving is ready flags while chanting, racist terminology, such as that. so there is an effort, i think, on his behalf to try to project a somewhat different message to the wider world while still allowing this march to go ahead. how are you? thanks so much for the update on how he full set forth in west jerusalem. now the u . s. president says he's ready to take on russia's vladimir putin but doesn't expect any major outcomes from that meeting. in a few hours time, joe button plans to discuss the war in ukraine cyber tax on the election interference with his russian counterpart. bennett smith,

house ball from moscow. a lot future might hope to get out of the summit. it's been 7 years since the g 8 became the g 7. and russia stopped getting invites vladimir putin, his decision to alex crimea, prompted the suspension from this gathering of the world's most powerful democracy . since then, russia's president has become more isolated. only the president of tajikistan joined him for the victory day commemorations. so a summit with the us president is a qu putin. he's cooper for the meeting will be widely promoted by russian propaganda because put in is sort of emerging from international isolation and at the highest level for him. the fact of the summit itself is important. but it's the u. s. it's driving the agenda because it's far from clear what pooty will get from his talks with biden and headed to meet with mister poodle to let him know what i want him to know. the u. s. government, russia policy presumes a high degree of friction in the relationship he used to put in your new po,

which at work. if tutoring gets nothing from this meeting, i think he'll show us a scary movie and it will be bad if the almost war in april wasn't enough. is september, we get a semi war? would it be difficult for moscow to send his troops into ukraine? no. as well as ukraine, there'll be plenty to talk about when both men meet in this villa on the shores of lake geneva. disputes are reelection interfere and cyber crime and human rights cast a shadow over the meeting. arms control and regional conflicts will also be on the agenda the long. i think biden's strategy is based on the fact that american society economy and technology have a future while putin's regime has no future. that's why biden doesn't need to rush . americans are not really worried about the fate of vonnie or other jailed russian opposition. members, so there will be pressure on put in but not very strong because they need to keep the communication channel open. is it even possible for the us and russia to come to agreement over the status of crimea,

or what to do about the beller as dictate to alexander lucas shank or how to resolve the syrian civil war or bloomer? the problem is simple. the west con, get put in what he wants. freedom of action into post. soviet region cannot and will not. while that's exactly what to to needs. so when a dead end may well end up with a war, at least on the re staffing of each of us embassies, both lead as could come to a mutually beneficial agreement. here that the topic, walton, have left us and russian diplomatic mission operating with skeleton that affects diplomatic exchange is at a severely disruptive issuing a visa foreign ministry that it's ready to review normal operations with just 24 hours. notice if the us agree, bernard smith, alger 0. well let's set the scene with tasha butler in geneva before we discussed the politics. and natasha just gives an idea of the choreography of today's meetings. and on the timings of what happens when?

well, i think what we are going to expect today in this meeting between joe biden and vladimir putin is a very 10th meeting. i'm probably an unfriendly one because relations between moscow and washington are extremely low. we understand that it will be a meeting of maybe 45 hours. it will be one with the u. s. a secretary of state at the beginning, joining on the russian foreign minister and then be expanded. at the end. there will be press conferences, bought the 2 leaders will not have a press conference together that gives you a sense of the atmosphere going into this. joe biden has spent the past few days talking to his allies at the g 7, nato. at the e u. he says he has best support as he goes into this meeting with the russian leader. he also says that he wants to be very clear with lots of putin that he's going to put down his red lines and should russia cross them,

then the u. s. will retaliate, but what he's looking for, he says, is a stable and predictable relationship with moscow. vladimir putin was the saw in burnett's report. i mean, he will certainly be playing up this meeting back home fishing with joe biden, in the some to filler by lake geneva. he'll also probably be quite flattered that earlier this week, joe biden called him a worthy adversary. and of course, you know, i mean this meeting and perspective meeting is at analysts. you might say, wondering what's going to go on. i mean, the meeting itself or the president's is a chance for them to size each other up, or is it to see what they can get out of each other and some of alluded, i mean, how easy or difficult is it the analyst is it the journalists right now to gauge what is going to happen right now. well, both sides have been quite k g, about what exactly they're going to talk about. so i mean,

we know that joe biden is very likely to talk about ukraine. the ongoing conflict. russia's role is like he talked about human rights, perhaps a poisoning and jailing over lexi, nevada and those increasing slide for a tax on the u. s. washington blames on moscow, but there is a very divisive issue. they are issues the future will obviously not be supportive of keith as ukraine is one of his red lines. he denies that moscow has any links to the cyber attacks in the united states, and in terms of electing the me well wash authorities have been cracking down on the val needs met work. but one of the 2 leaders all going to do most likely is try to find some common ground. now that could be the role nuclear deal, that could be climate change or arms control because they have to find some way of opening up communication. that's pretty much the goal of the summit. expectations are pretty low. we're not expecting any big breakthrough, but the fact that they're meeting here is seen at least as

a step in the right direction. that sounds good. thanks very much. natasha buttercup, monitoring that's forth in geneva. thank you. well, still had him on al jazeera and some goals armed forces celebrate a small victorian the fight against rebels in the south and trying to prevent sustained its oldest astronauts into space. and at 1st crude mission ah, ah, it's time for the journey to winter sponsored by kettle airways. hello. the heat is on across europe, london. i've got you and i think you'll do it. 30 degrees. paris we've cut you in for 34, but let's talk about that act of weather and we can find it toward iberia, starting to migrate further to the north in impact the western portion of france. we've got a lot of weather along the black sea region, so pockets of 60 millimeters for eastern bulgaria and romania can't be ruled out.

energy bubbling up across spain as we head toward thursday, once again lifting toward the north, some soaking rains for paris and london. your temperature is down to 23 and this act of weather will make it to you. as we head toward friday, wind gusts about 40 to 50 kilometers per hour, and your temperatures are now below average. all of that was weather along the black sea were seen at toward the southern shores of the black sea for turkey. and, you know, on kara, had been dealing with some flash flooding as of late. i think the biggest risk for that will be north of the capital region and by thursday i conditions do improve here. we'll keep the risk of some scattered showers for is stumble with the high of 25 degrees off to africa. we've got some sand and dust jumping across the red sea from yemen. this is impacting eritrea as morrow. 26 degrees with some hazy conditions and a lot of rain for southern areas of nigeria. sponsor cut on airways. be part of the debate is self defeating the end because it in the

us or in the u. k, because it will just come back again when no topic is off the table. what we wanted to talk about were these men white men impacting our lives green, where global audience becomes a global community, jumping to the comment section, and part of those discussion there are like kinetic efforts to silence on the online page on al jazeera, ah, ah, ah, looking back, you're watching over there with me. the whole rom, the reminder of our top stories. israel is covered, i'll be 1st strike. don't garza since if the side was brought in less than 4 weeks

ago. that's up to in century balloons. are floating in from garza causing fires in field in southern israel. us president joe, 5 minutes to meet the russian leader vladimir putin in just a few hours time. men say that open dialogue with a wide range of issues, but don't expect any major outcomes from the talks in the switch city of geneva. the homed group formed in mamma opposed to february. the military q has announced its holding a tax on government forces. the current national defense force has been under pressure from the public to stop pointing in a higher state where it operates. more than a 100000 people have been displaced by the cold late a you and investigator has warned that they are at risk of salvation and disease. tenny chang has more from the tie me in my border. this valley marks the border between mamma and thailand, and while it appears tranquil reports coming from the other side and can state all that it is anything. but ma'am us army has launched an offensive using heavy

artillery and attack helicopters against towns just 20 or 30 kilometers over the border. and that in turn has forced more than a 100000 people to seek sanctuary in the jungles. over here, we understand that one of the groups that have been fighting against the mamma army has called for a cease for, but that is just one small area and very few people will be reassured of their long term future. nonetheless, conditions for the refugees have fled or apparently desperate. mazama has closed off the entire state and apparently now food, clean water and shelter, are in very short supply. acer lanchen family seeking asylum, the strainer has been reunited after they were separated when the youngest daughter became sick. now this linger who got up and flew to perth with his oldest daughter copy of him, christmas island detention center in the indian ocean on tuesday. now his youngest daughter is being treated in hospital for blood poisoning due to untreated

pneumonia and her mother was allowed to travel with her wealthy as any one caught trying to reach australia by boat. without documentation has been sent to remote offshore detention centers. hundreds are being held in prison comes in the pacific islands of narrow and pop. when you get where the refugee status is being assessed . anyone in need of medical treatment is taken to the remote australian territory of christmas island, which is closer to indonesia. and it is to the mainland australians, human rights commissions, as the detention center on christmas island should be closed because of its inhumane living conditions and that over crowded facilities that make it impossible to stop the spread of cov at $19.00. honeywell is the chief executive of the public interest advocacy center that say so. so justice and law policy center joins been i've, i've seen from sidney in australia. good talk with us there on the program. there's an old, via humanitarian and medical lead for this family to be kept together. but it's

only temporary and the government are not budging on that. neither tron, unfortunately the price to people seeking us on the strider is ash and then kind of like this, frankly cruel one where there is a real, a real emphasis placed on creating harsh and unwelcome conditions to attempt to deter others from trying to come here and taking protection everybody's case is very different and what does what it would take for this particular family to be allowed to stay because it seems the burden of proof to validate any one's claim is always so very difficult to these sorts of circumstances. that's right, and i can comment on the individual circumstances these families ties wanting. this is very well known as the community in queensland where we're living in the community is very came to have them back, making a great contribution in that community and in the state. the state and government

is taking this, this extraordinary approach of spending countless millions of dollars to the time them to ship them to christmas island, to hold them in detention. they're pretty standard periods of time despite the distress of causes, despite the, the evidence that we had for really decades of the mental hom but it causes into place children in that position to proofpoint. frankly, it is really beyond, it's an extraordinary situation. it's just too late, like family and knowing that detention center with a lack of pictures of what she goes on christmas island. could you just color the scene for us? give us an idea of the types of conditions we're talking about. shaw, i've not been to that center, but i'm saying i've seen you, which is certainly read reports about it. you know, design is a detention center with right awards. it's set up to the to have a higher level of security. and one of the recommendations with the human rights commission is my and this report is that it be clients,

it's not suitable for people from often it's a very vulnerable kind of what people do is often played from circumstances torture and trauma. they just aren't the service isn't appropriate, facilities available there so that people can be held safely. and so the commission is recommended absolutely unequivocally. it should be taken machine should not be held. it shouldn't be used to the pipeline. the situation when we talk about the motor gap in family, i mean, in your opinion, how safe or unsafe is it now for this family and others like them to, to return to a country like sir lanka and its current state. it's re specific about the family because i know the details of their cash. i'm not a lawyer, but certainly the un issued report in january that expressed really great concerns about the situation like that, particularly for people from the monitoring channel and was communities and great concerns about the potential deterioration of the security situation. so it's

settled and i'd certainly be very concerned that anyone from either of the community being returned to sterling or you can count circumstances, jones. he knows it's good to have with us. thanks very much for the time from the public interest ethics advocacy center. thank you. no rounds, any reformers candidate in friday's presidential election has dropped out of the race on the last day of campaigning. st media says most and medical exam resigned in the letter to ron's interior ministry. he gave reasons for the decision. just one of the 6 remaining candidates as close to the reformist and moderate factions. while her aunt present husband, hardy has urged people to vote in fried his election. he said a boycott is not a solution. as a back is into iran. with more on ronnie's comments, he's been addressing issues around the voter turnout. that's a major issue for the political establishment here. now what he has come out and said is boy cutting the election isn't the way forward that if people have

grievances or dissatisfaction reveal he government or the political establishment boycotting it isn't the way forward. he said that they had been injustices done during the vetting process and the way to compensate for that is for people to come out and vote. there is a concern about voter turn out, but polls again are showing that is slowly increasing and anything above 40 percent, the political establishment here would be happy with that. but what i can tell you it was really nice on the streets. we have been hearing a lot of people telling us that there won't be voting thing, that the dissatisfied, not only with the electoral process, the vetting process, but also with the current government and the economic situation. every time we put a camera, someone will stop, someone would drive past and say, either they're not voting or they're unhappy. but yesterday we were in the south of there on. but then there was some hope that the new president will come in and change the economic situation for many people have said it also me says it's captured rebel bases in the south. it's the latest offensive against the non group

that wants to create an independent state. it's hope the operation will help and while of africa's longest civil conflicts. because hot reports from the capital darker, a final push into rebel held the villages after senegal, the armed forces launched a 2 week ground in aerial assault. government troops have taken back control of southern district and because the most region border and getting the south security us, you don't get a good. this is an important operation aimed at, but controlling the border by creating military outposts deep in the jungle. this is to allow the civilian population that floods the area to be able to finally return home. i really love this is what's left of one of the rebel basses. provisions and arms were abandoned. as senegal government forces launch, there are surprise assault. the army says rebel fighters had placed landmines all around the camp. god bless it, but i mean, at least one officer and our ranks was injured when he stepped on an anti personnel

mine. also, one of our comrades was injured by gunshot and come on, i'd get there. bless it by the movement of democratic forces of chasm, also also known as the m f. d. c has been fighting for independence from senegal for the last 40 years. in the past, the government of getting be so in gambia were hostile towards synagogue and supported the rebel spokesperson of the cynically. the armed forces told al jazeera that they suspect the rebels of having fled to neighboring guinea bizarre while there has been series of victories for is a cynical use army. in the last year. lasting piece will require the cooperation of neighboring country but newly elected president, the neighboring countries stopped funding the rebels preferring to build a stronger ties with sending out to president mikey, so today, so they have good allies. booth in the news though, is a gun. yeah. so let's say the best fire for the city government

to find last the solution to the government. coffee with me and using the military pressure wide. and you will see it in a very weak images. following mediation efforts by organizations close to the vatican, the movement of democratic forces of chasm was called for a full cease fire in 2014. for the rebels are accused by rights groups and environmentalists of illegal logging and attacking local villagers. this latest assault by the senegalese army is another attempt to bring this long standing conflict to an end. nicholas hawk al jazeera de car. now trying to do to launch its 1st space mission with a crew in nearly 5 years on thursday. the ship through 12 will take 3 men, including china's oldest astronauts the age of $56.00 to the country's new space station for a 3 month stay. a lot more missions are planned over the next year and a half to complete the construction katrina. you have more phishing,
