the president directed further minute reaction to disrupt and deter such attacks. for washington, d. c, here is rosalyn jordan. now, late on sunday, the paragon announced that at the orders of jo brighton, the us president, the us military launched defensive precision air strikes against 3 targets, 2 in syria and one in iraq. the targets are, are ron backed militias, according to the pentagon groups that have been trying to launch drone attacks on us forces and bases inside are rock. the pentagon goes on to say that the president used his constitutional authority to order these airstrikes in order to protect us forces, who are in iraq, providing training and support to the rocky military. my mood, the law is live for us now from baghdad. so is the situation coming down now my

moods it doesn't seem so saw me, especially with the threats coming from the popular popular mobilization forces and bitter allies. as you know, that statement is expected to be released by the brigade of his vala and i see the shad brigade too. and these are the a run back military arm ado groups it for were killed. and then from the popular mobilization force suggest that one military commander is among the debt. now, remember, this attack is a kind of a response to the drone attacks launch it or conducted by those are the groups because they're accused of by the united states admitted tray

of conducting attacks using, draws to targeting get military u. s. military facilities, including the new acid military base in the province, and also the military facilities near the but the international airport over the past few months. this attack, it comes only a couple of days after the sure force conducted by the popular mobilization force. the anniversary of creating a stablish in the army group of the parade. the military parade conducted by the popular mobilization force was in the yellow province. and meanwhile, the government of most provides called me in, but that has not commented on the attack yet, but we know that the government is not in normal terms with many of the iran bagged

groups. there is a lot of comments on line from pages affiliated with the popular mobilization force, threatening to retaliate, creating to launch more missiles to attack mandatory u. s. military facilities as a kind of retaliation to tonight's attack or, and that was not moved that the law had there from baghdad. now, as we've been reporting, this is the 2nd time president joe biden has ordered military strikes in the region . the 1st was in february against some of the same iran bank groups that was in response to rocket attacks on us spaces. the pentagon says there were 5 drug tags on the us led coalition personnel in iraq since april. and that iran back militia, including time, has the law, and i'd say the show that use the facility. that was the tax on sunday. lauren's

iraq water. these are theoretically part of the iraqi military, but they're under a rating and control. and basically they would like the united states to get out of the region. so a ran, could extend its, its influence, the iraqi government likes us to do the same because they don't want to take on the iranian backed militias themselves, given the, you know, the percentage of the ship that live, that live live in iraq. so this, i'm sure they coordinated this with the iraqi government and in iran, castillo's claimed responsibility for a rocket attack on an electrical power station. the attack happened in the city of sonata iraq's ministry of electricity says the seller had the power station suffered severe damage offer was hit by confusion of rockets, me a

a structural engineer tells al jazeera the collapse seems to started in the buildings foundation and the thinking landfill. it was built on deck might be something to do with the foundation settlement that might be something to do with d is some of the columns that might be deteriorated over time. remember, this building is close to the shoreline. and when you have structures, especially countries, sectors get across the shore line. there it's 40, it's forced to salty. see what? it kind of explain. the deterioration of the country. search and rescue teams cut a deep trench through pancake concrete and mangled metal and made a grim discovery. we continued all night to build that, that trench. and as a result of that, we were able to recover for additional bodies in the rubble. as well as additional human remains, 1st responders say this is still a rescue mission,

noting survivors could live on in so called void spaces. so avoid space can be created by pretty much anything if a wall falls and hit your refrigerator. instead of coming down to the floor, maybe a piece of furniture, maybe someone could be in a bath tub with a piece of wall over them. and the back of itself is avoid space with any face that could sustain life, family members or donating dna to identify those last in the champlain towers, south. but the search has been hampered by fire and rain. there is another worry just north of the building. they came down, there is another building called champlain tower north built at the same time with similar materials and residence there are being offered the chance to voluntarily actuate. over the next 30 days, miami dade county officials will be inspecting it and other older high rise buildings, hoping to avoid another catastrophe on the sinking sands of miami beach. the chances of finding survivors decreased by the hour and by the day that the refill

scattered throughout and its compact is extremely compact. so it's a very slow process where we have to sure we have to stabilize the best we can as we're moving through. after the rescue come the forensic engineers gathering samples from the collapse concrete and steel and putting their findings into computer simulations, we will try to replicate disputed by different simulations and based on the loss you have in your computer environment, simulating the same type of failure. then you will have a better understanding of what factor or factors caused this failure. but 1st rescue workers are toiling around the clock to ensure that anyone who has managed to survive within avoid in the rebel is discovered before time runs out. john henderson, al jazeera surfside, florida, peruse the actual jury is said to resume its review, contested balance on monday as tensions mount between rival camps and the countries

presidential election. supporters of left this federal castillo say he should be declared the winner after the official count gave him a 44000 vote lead in the june 6 selection. these right wing rival kind of for you more is made on proven claims of for when it can't be declared, until the allegations are reviewed. let's bring in now kaffir 5. have a peruvian journalist and joined us from london. good to have you with us. so it seems things that kind of held up now until these claims of, of fraud can be looked into in resolves, where do the legal challenges stand right now? at the moment, as you said in your introduction, there has been, haven't been any evidence that there was short pick up you. marty said sunday that she would go to the press. the president's august. he was, he was the organization with america the states to conduct an audience of the election. this is unlikely to succeed because in order for that to happen in the

mission of service of the organization, will somebody come to state your every board said that they wait. you know what i would use to hop and noted process. this is not the case. the mission of observer, i've said that in the collections with transpiring, that were fair. and there was no any hint that there was any kind of fraud. which means that this is going to be or likely to succeed. it happening in 2019 total when that mission or service issues, i reported that there was a fraud and he's like, well, we do believe in elections and that's why they should be a new election. this is not the case input rule, so it's very unlikely for mr. mrs. which to succeed in her request to get an audience at the same time as you said in your production, if it's pure remaining challenge about how to be overseen by the jury. but so far it, most of that they're not, not most of the all get all the challenge that happening overseen by the jury. i've been dismissed by,

by them because they say that this not prove that they're seeing any kind of time is one running off on this, if you marty. and as you said these because he said, look, we have to be that clear. you have to be the good britain because there's not fraught, nothing has been proven that can remain the same. so the moment the legal challenges are mrs. murray has a very, very few and be like to succeed anyway. all right, so the president unlikely to order an audit, it's down to the jury, which resolves which resumes rather it's work on monday. how quickly are they likely to make their stance on the remaining challenges which they haven't addressed? it should be very quick because a few remaining challenges, most often i would say 90 percent, i've already dismissed that shouldn't take much more than a few days for the jury to. busy which it's on completion. got everything already analysis on all the emission from the united nation, from the european union,

from the organizational, but making mistakes have concluded that those challenges will not change anything. they will not change the outcome of the election, which means that mr. pedro garcia has one, but very few challenges remained to be seen on time. the reason why because she's running out of time to do morning is asking for these already to happen, or to happen, what the organizational of the state's that's pretty unlikely that the prisoners going to accept that. so she's running out of time as a fuse of this week in theory, which should expat mr. castillo should be proclaimed a new place to walk through, watching to see if that means the end of the beginning of all the more disturbances . thanks so much car fears, father, hey, our mainstream political parties in france appeared to have faulted the ambitions of both the far right and president demand, micron and the 2nd round of regional elections. exit polls indicate traditional center, right? conservatives have secured 7 regions,

while the center left party looks to be on calls to control 5. marina penn, national riley fail to win its 1st have a region in its strong hold around last say, a nice reminder, microns republic on the move hasn't won any regions either with exit polls pointing to a poor performance turn out that the pulse has been low, is estimated only around 34 percent of people cause that balance. it's the final actual test to for next year's presidential election. latasha barbara has more now from paris. one of the end of this election, france was pretty much divided between the traditional left the socialist from the allies and the traditional rights. the conservatives and their supporters very good results for them. indeed, confirming what we saw in the 1st round of the selection. very disappointing result . so for the far right leader marine, the penn national rally policy failed to win any regions in the selection. she had

really been hoping to win region in the south. the from where i can say i've been in the lee, but in the end he was knocked out by it's a conservative candidate. she is claiming for facts to turn out was low. she says this election was not well organized, but they will of course be question being off with an a party as to why they did so badly. emmanuel monochrome, the french president, his policy republic, on the move, also failing to win any regions. they'll also be a very disappointed republic on the move as a young policy was created by my cross spring, bought him to the presidency, but it is failed over the years. the capture him faces imagination to win any wider grass roots support. nevertheless, some are saying that the regional election could be an indication of what is to come next year. we have the presidential elections in in 2022 in 2017 micro and le pen were the front runners on poll suggests that they could be the front one is in

2022, but no doubt they will have to draw some conclusions and learn some lessons from these regional polls. china has released new footage from its mild rover. it includes the moment the parachute deployed from the town when one space crossed as it landed last month. it also shows the rover driving on the martian surface where it's in working more than 40 days. the rover is looking for signs of water or ice that could indicate whether the planning to have a sustained life. the me i, let's take you through some of the headlines here and i'll just say right now, the us military conductor that strikes against iranian back, the militia, 2 locations in syria and one in iraq with targeted both along the border. iraq's popular mobilization forces say 4 of them members were killed and they are.
