king everyone and me on my do you regret? well it's like, gosh, we listen. absolutely. nigeria with a woman precedent. it would be great. we meet with global news makers and talk about the stories that matter on, sir. ah, the ah, this is al jazeera ah, hello, i'm molly inside. this is the news out lie from doha, coming up in the next 60 minutes. iraq's military condemns us as strikes on its border with syria and iran. back paramilitary group is vowing revenge off to its members killed indonesian hospitals and burial sites overwhelms. as asia pacific nation the arise in 19 infections driven by new variance. i still trying to

expand its footprint in africa, the top of the agenda as foreign ministers from around the well me to discuss account strategy feeling alone in the world. the report says many children in the west bank have lost faith, but anyone will help them and in sport, defending champions. portugal had been knocked out of the european championship, rang team in the world, belgium, beating them one mail to them for the fine ah, hello and welcome. in a ram moved, the iraqi military has condemned a series of u. s. s, trying so long. it's border with syria, calling them a violation of iraqi sovereignty. iran box paramilitary helms groups in iraq have

promised a joint response to the strikes which targeted them. the us, as the facilities hits were being used to launch attacks against american troops in iraq or iraq's popular mobilization forces says for if its members were killed, us president joe biden ordered the strikes against the same groups back in february . well, in this statement, the pentagon said the following, president biden has been cleared, but he will act to protect us pass no. given the ongoing series of attacks by iran backed groups targeting us interest in iraq, the president directed further military action to disrupt and deter such attacks. let's get more unless we can speak to him. ron khan, who is my 1st in baghdad. we've just heard him, ron, from the iraqi ministry condemning the u. s. s. strikes. that's a pretty surprising move, isn't it? given that the iraqi pm is an allied, the us was actually an incredibly strong statement. it's actually worth reading you

. some of it we condemn the u. s. air attack and targeted a site last night on the rocky syrian border, which represents a latent and unacceptable violation of a rocky serenity and a rocky national security. in accordance with all international conventions. now that really suggests that the rockies probably didn't know that the us was going to mount a strike on its territory on that boat at the congo to crossing with syria. this means that there is either a disconnect between the u. s. and the rocky government, and as you say, this is an alloy of the us in the war on terror. in fact, the u. s. supplies the rocky army with weapons and training and finance is to be able to fight that war against isolate. so this is why this statement is actually kind of crucial in understanding what's going on right now. this is a very angry statement. it's been followed by even more angry statements from the

pm axis. i actually, this was a base that was housing, any kind of weapons. this was an attack against a rocky serenity that we all going to declare an open war against the u. s. against us target on that statement came from ca, type a show harder. and there, that's one of the groups who lost full members in that attack. so escalation is now a real worry. now, what that, what that escalation looks like when it's going to take place? we don't know what we are hearing is that there will be a funeral in baghdad, tuesday at 9 am, and it looks like it's going to be a really big funeral for those 4 people killed. like any kind of reaction will either be fed funeral or they going to do or will come in the, in the few next few days. okay. many thanks for that update iran. calm that 1st in that. well, iran has reacted saying the u. s. needs to stop creating problems in the region in

the autumn, which i had the hampton under my seat at the u. s. still continues the wrong path in the region. what we see today is not only the sanctions, but also following the wrong policy, as in previous administration, is in regard with actions they carry out in the region. they don't recommend the us to correct. that's part of the seat of creating tensions and problems for the people of the region. we recommend the us to correct it as part of creating tensions and problems for the people of the region. and the regional nations decide for themselves without their interference, and what the us does is hurting the security of the region that the us itself will be one of the victim. let's try and get a better understanding of the various motivations here. joe, joining us now in doha is, must have lucy, he's a middle east unless the commentator ne, thanks for joining us on the program. before we go into the nitty gritty, let's start with this militia group. the p. m. f is the popular mobilization for to exactly all day and what is their relationship with the iraqi government?

so many of these groups were created even before the advent of i sits in 2014 and they were supported by iran for decades. but after the rise devices, all of them coalesced to create the p. m. s. some of them are she, some of some of them are allies with the iran. some of them are also know she probably still needs are christians, but the most powerful ones are the ones that are supported by iran, and they have a tremendous influence within iraq. and it's not only military, but it's also economics and the relationship with the iraq government. it's been very good during the i suspect here when they were both fighting isis, but after 2018. 19 the popularity of the p. m. i have a decrease within at least iraq in society and many see them as a burden and actually affecting the ability of the rock government to reform itself

. so in light of that, is it surprising that we're hearing from the iraqi military today in, in, in the strong statement condemning these u. s. s strikes? it's a bit surprising and it's sort of a very strong statement as well. but we also have to keep in mind the context as well. iraq will witness elections within 2 months. so of course the political leadership would, would want to have a good relationship with the t m. s. in case they want to form a government afterwards after the elections, of course. and also we have to keep in mind the back or policies like someone. sometimes the statements made by iraq, politicians in public. it's very different from what they actually believe in social, when it comes to iran in the united states. many of the iraq, while s issues are not at liberty to say exactly what they want because of their fluid. so both bodies and more. so when you run by the united states,

very interesting. so in terms of iran, what pressure is the anti episode going to put on iran, especially in light of the iran nuclear talks, which are ongoing at the moment. solely both countries can. that's the united states and iran can compartmentalize the relationship between them. so the nuclear deal is a very different track from the attacks that has been happening against the us spaces and us person. the iranian strategy, when it comes to nuclear, they want to sign the nuclear in order to have they can amik benefits. and this is indicated by statements made by the current president jaime, and even the coming president when it comes to the iran iraq policy in iraq, they would like to have the you, what is forces be parts because it's, it's a strategic and military nightmare where you're on us continue to be present and

iraq and light of the contentious relationship that both countries have. so it's 2 separate tracks. the both efforts are pursuing, i'm not 100 percent. sure. i don't believe that the events in iraq would affect the negotiations and be enough because it's totally separate. comes and goes that both are silly. so briefly, what happens next? could we see these attacks escalades affect the stability in the region a tool? i don't believe it would affect the stability in the region as a whole. maybe it would affect stability within iraq itself. possibly if the pm a 4 please. so factions of decide to target us bases and probably even kill us personnel over there would be in the us to retaliate against these attacks . but on the region as a whole, i do not believe so. and even these attacks,

accounts, or attacks can be contained in the future, even if it increases in intensity and frequency. really interesting to get your thoughts must have a lucy, a middle east armless speaking to us from her in the highly infectious delta. the variance of coven 19 is breaching defenses all across asia. full thing, governments to bring back tough restrictions. a lockdown is due to begin in bunker dash on thursday and huge numbers of people have been scrambling to get out of the capital before then. they are record breaking infection counts in indonesia to hospitals in jakarta and elsewhere have set up 10 south side to treat. the overflow of patients and in thailand have tightened restrictions and as capital, bangkok, and other provinces to tackle it's worse outbreak so far. well more

on the situation in con, shortly with correspond tony chang, who is in bangkok, will also speak to jessica washington in jakarta. first less 10 to 10, very challenging. is that a fairy terminal net dot com? bring us up to date? what's happening? where you will while i'm about 40 kilometer, i've got that amount of time and one of the largest it connects the southern side western part of the country. now the inflection is not as much people back, so does rather, is not as much as last few days, but still hundreds and thousands of people are still going outside the capital city dot com. we saw people walking in the road while coming here with a woman with the whole family standing there waiting hours. the can get any public transportation because they're all shut down except for a few trucks under special provision. now most of the people are working people that so that we don't have much to do in dock because everything will be shut down

. so we might as well go to our village on the district on what to have an extended family network, which comes in handy as a support mechanism. now people i wanted that the shut down could be extended after july, 1 right nights for one week, but that do fear that it's going to be extended because the virus is spreading in the district that bothers with indian border, the 4000 kilometers bother. and this via the delta via now spreading into the capital city. most of the hospital industry, towns are packed even in docket. ice is our pad, although the hospital is still going to accommodate people. but people are fierce on this. if this delta bad starts spreading and they're very densely populated, country things go out of control and the health department is one of the crowding and betty turn in other places. good. also kept spreading the vitals because a lot of people coming out of the district into capital city. and that is a peer that they would be bringing. and a in danbury and or rather the delta

a very and into the capital city. tony chain with an update from bangkok we contend to jessica washington in jakarta. jessica from what we can see behind you. you're clearly a grave size. presumably these are people who have died from cove. it that's exactly right. and beyond that, this is one of the new cove 900 burial sites, because all those that were opened in the early stages of the pandemic are already at capacity. so this is one of the new cemetery that's recently opened. but as you can see, it's already filling up fast. we've been able to observe the situation here throughout the day. and we were also here last week as well. and we have seen steady stream of ambulances coming in. there is no rest for these grave diggers. ambulances bring more and more bodies to be buried. it's a tragic sight to see these families grieving at what is essentially a make shift cemetery. what sounds and looks more like

a construction side with so many excavators. working as these families are trying to grieve, but it's not just the symmetry that of facing this urgent situation. but the hospitals as well, many hospitals are struggling. some in java are already at 100 percent capacity. and all those are edging closer and closer to that. now, just a few minutes ago we heard from the indonesian president who said that he is positive here, that things are heading in the right direction in terms of the vaccination. but he said the target of 1000000 vaccinations each day and on saturday they actually broke that target and vaccinated 1300000 people, but doctors and epidemiologist say that it is not enough for indonesia to just rely on vaccinations that as transmission office virus firewalls out of control in particular, increase transmission of the delta vary and that indonesian government must do more to introduce strict protocol to stop the spread of this virus. many,

thanks for that jessica washington in jakarta. let's turn to tourney. chang in bangkok and another grim situation where you all toady indeed, we call new lockdown restrictions or semi locked down restrictions. and the governments will be very keen to point out that this isn't the full lockdown as we saw last year. but in restaurant dining has been banned. gatherings of people more than 20 have been been. we seem to be heading into a situation where controls must strict and that's having a real impact out on the streets. we spoke to some people in china town earlier today who said that their businesses are going to be really badly affected. and unlike the lock downs, last year, this year, they're not getting any financial aid, a tool. they've been effectively in this state unable to do business since march of this year. and they say they just don't know how they're going to get on. but

there's also frustration that the government policy isn't locking things down completely. we've seen a slow rise and transmissions from daily rates of 2000 to 3000 to 5000 today. and how many people here would happily make the sacrifice if they felt that it would stop that level of transmission. the government clearly isn't came to do it, it knows the economic impact, but it's keeping things like shopping malls, open the closing small businesses, and that's very frustrating for many people. we're also about to see the opening up of for cat foreign tourists on the 1st of july, and their real concerns that to that, that we could see. increasing transmission is coming from overseas. we don't have the delta vary in here in thailand yet, but there's a real concern that if it does get in here, many people and kids have been vaccinated with sign events that appears not to be very resistant to these more advanced periods. and there are concerns. once that gets into thailand, these numbers could rise even higher money. thanks. fat. tiny chang in bangkok.

plenty more. has all the news, including we looked at asia softly. we look at how kind of the 19, specifically, the delta veteran is hitting africa and the death toll from the partial collapse with the florida department rises the rescue as se, then not giving up and for the record would continue to fall on the track action from the us and then pick trials coming up later in the program. a rival palestinian groups have been fighting after the death of an outspoken critic of the palestinian authority. they have been days of demonstration since news are bonnets died in the custody of security forces last week. release 5,

pay gas and sun grenades in bethlehem where some protesters withdrawing stones and other projectiles at opposite. and with so many scenes across the occupied west bank, stephanie deca report the hales on the streets of it among the group of pro government supporters march down to where around a 100 testers had gathered peacefully chanting slogans against the policy authority . protests were beaten, and members of the media were aggressive. the targeted many se been a concert campaign against the cam. records were forcibly removed and taken, a colleague had his camera smashed. we were surrounded by thugs who forced us to bring down the satellite antenna on our old hosting trucks. there are security members, you know, but with the civil clause, the related to different security groups and military intelligence and the which called the,

the president gods. also this is part of that. most of them, they are not civilians, they are security. it's the 4th day of protests following the death of palestinian authority. critic, these are burnett, according to his family, who was beaten in the middle of the night, detained by members of the palestinian security forces. last thursday. anger at the government here is rising. 84 percent of the palestinian people say impulse that the palestinian authority is corrupt. so that's the 1st issue. the 2nd issue is that the p a has become an authoritarian regime. they are arresting activists. they are beating people in the streets. and last but not least, the palestinian people want to struggle for freedom wants a struggle for justice. the supplements are expanding and we see the p a and the p . a role has been assisting the occupation preventing the post. and the struggle seems like this rarely seen here. and large number of security forces were

stationed not far from this and did nothing we reached out to various members of the government. no one has so far given us a response. the level of intimidation over the media over the last couple of days has been immense. female journalists have been beaten with sticks. we were severely intimidated, not to film to bring down our live capabilities. and they continue to watch us to the point where we couldn't even take out our mobile phones. and all this prompted by a protests of only around 100 or so people, stephanie decor, i'll just 0 my law in the occupied west back report by say the children says 4 out of 5 children in the occupied west bank and east jerusalem, whose homes with demolished by israeli forces feel abandoned by the world. $217.00 palestinian families took part in the survey. 80 percent of the miners interviewed said they have lost faith not only in the international community, but it will so that parents, a majority of children, showed high rates of distress,

including feelings of sadness, fit, depression, and anxiety. the report also found a majority of palestinian parents feel they are unable to protect their children, often losing their home. let's talk to jason lee. he is save the children's country director for the occupied palestinian territory. he joined this on guy from sidney . many thanks for joining the program. a very sad report. what in the research you did actually stood out for you? good afternoon getting here. i mean it's a starting reality and i think it shows the actual struggles that children have been going through. like everything else, demolition of the hallway, i mean, despite the initial trauma losing a place to live and we know how important that is, particularly with carpet 19. anything you know, ever seen the importance of having a harm, somebody's safe that children can go to to be the family,

but also redeem education. but these things are sadly, not available to many children that have had the homes demolished in the west bank . and the results sure, it's dangling that you have a out of 10 children that have absolutely no faith or have lost hope. i think that's the status thing that it any hope any more for a generation of children and these children as young as 10. i believe. what kind of long term impacts are we talking about on these children that have been kicked out from their homes? how will it impact them into adulthood? well, the multiple impacts, 1st and foremost, i mean, do the psycho social impact on these children is just unfathomable. i mean, the fact that they have lost and they have no hard question about their futures. i mean, 3 to 5 children have had the impact on the education with when the homes have been demolished, they found it difficult to resume the school studies,

which means that them very, very limited opportunities for them. sort of getting a job later on. i mean, the fact that 7 out of 10 children feel socially isolated, that's a staggering amount of children that have no connection anymore to the land, to the communities that essentially drifting on. now, the fact that this demolition is coercive environment has been happening for decades. we're essentially impacting an entire generation of children and effectively in a way, stealing the futures. i mean, if children feeling stressed, have feelings of depression, anxiety, sadness, not feeling safe, not engaging in their studies. not engaging with friends, the communities and families. i mean, what future are we, are we creating for a whole generation of this kind of thing and children and as an organization, what, what do you do? what can you do to help these children and their parents with the trauma,

the experiencing? i mean, winter span days were providing immediate psycho social support to the children, to the families, to try and grapple with his feelings. grapple with these terrible feelings that they're going through. and of course, you know, the true one of the priorities for education and protection to ensure that children are safe. so we try and find these children. we try and make sure that at least that can protected wherever possible. we ensure that there's a lifting program that deals with the live live with the families. because many of these families, when they leave, they lose the assets, they lose the ability to actually the livelihood to an additional income. so we try and provide a bridge for those families, but it's not enough. i mean, we were just bad days, but the main issue is that these tactics of the course of environmental, the demolition of harmed the inevitably illegal should actually be stopped. many

thanks for your time, jason leave from save the children. at least 30 people have been killed in an attack in central somalia. a government official said also bob fy. just set off to ca, bombs on sunday, targeting and military base in the town of whistle. in the semi autonomous state of gun would do the attack lead to fighting between troops, rebels against, he has been declared in the city of benny in the democratic republic of congo, off the 3 by the tags on the weekend. 2 people winded, often explosion inside a church on sunday. it is the 1st attack on a catholic church in the area and was followed hours later by a suicide bombing outside a ball. foreign ministers have gathered in rome to discuss a coordinated plan to defeat. i fill us secretary of state and to be blinking, not as italian counterpart of hosting the global summit. the growing threats in

parts of africa is expected to be high on the agenda. lincoln also take part in the meeting on the sidelines of the summit to discuss the crisis in syria. and i still affiliated on groups on opening up new fronts all across africa, even as the on group sees a decline in the middle east. iso linked fighters have been blamed for increased violence across the sahara region, especially in multi quino faso and nisha in mozambique fighters claiming ties to i still have stepped out a tags in the northern cargo delgado province. at least 2 and a half 1000 people have been killed there and 700000 display since 2017. also in the democratic republic of congo, the governance imposed military rule in the northeast to stop spiraling violence. much of it blamed again on ice linked fighters. i speak to nicholas hark, who joins us live in dot com and son ago. nicholas,

what's going on here? how isis managing to gain so much ground across africa? well, it's more specifically in regions where there are weak governments and security forces are or the state is out there. i'm thinking here in this a hell region, specifically in the, the, the tri border area of molly news year in brocade fall. so we've really seen an uptake of, of attacks by arm groups to fill the ball. so i still the affiliates in that specific region. and that's because the, the state is largely absent and there are existing grievances that day back from before the time that i saw was around, our groups were active, they're farmers, and heard or is fighting overland. and with the absence of the state to mediate that well, the arm groups have been stepped in also it's worth bearing in mind the, the historical narrative of these groups. they are trying to revive this pre

colonial times where there were islam make states in that region. and that's all fostering and the, the, the, these arm groups in, in them trying to establish themselves in those specific regions. also worth noting that despite the presence of so many peacekeeping forces in molly, we've got the biggest peacekeeping force of 14000 and sort of the g 5 to help which is about of, of nations, of arm armies in the region, trying to fight off these arm goose, well, the islamic states in the greater has stepped up attacks just a few weeks ago. there was an attack in brick fossil there. and the un says that they were children that were attacking villagers, children age between 12 and 14. and so we're seeing a lot more attacks in the region as a whole, despite the, the, the,

the presence of security forces in the region. so clearly, this is now an issue of concern for the europeans, given their meeting to discuss. no, absolutely. and for the europeans, the way they see this is that patrolling or ensuring the security of the european union starts by patrolling and, and being deployed in the hell region with the, the new 4th tech cooper that was launched, spearheaded by the french in last year. well, these are european special forces that will be deployed throughout the region. and their main task is not just to fight counter insurgency or counter terrorism. it's also to ensure that they can stop the flow of migration heading to europe. we know that the hell region is being used by traffickers, human traffickers to make it, to make their way towards the mediterranean,

and towards the coast of, of the atlantic to make it towards the borders of the europe, specifically to italy and to spain. and there has been an increase of migrants trying to make their way through europe in the last year alone. so war europe and for the countries at the borders of europe, italy, spain, and france. they see it as a key to protect that specific region. and to dismantle human trafficking routes in that area. mullin, money, thanks about nicholas hock. first and soccer. still ahead on al jazeera civilian militias fighting again menacing yamaha taking great risk according to the new and a major setback for francis fall. right. and the policy of president emanuel macro and regional elections in force a night to remember for ecuador and the copa american football accident coming up.
