fresh look at the changes and challenges, but the bob way faces today, despite going tension with agency dan, ethiopia, is set for the next phase of filling them on the blue nile. july on i just, i this is al jazeera ah hello there. i'm how they see user life and go home coming up in the next 60 minutes to grow and leaders layer their conditions for considering the cold play. feel governments including a un investigation into alleged war kind doesn't killed us or a military transport plane, mississippi way and crashes in the southern philippines. a cheap suite tasting

a chilling. the drug is distributed in africa and what's being described as a game changer for treating babies and children and cyber attackers shop that a supermarket chain and these companies worldwide, few, they're being held to run and in sport, england set up a european sham chip, semi fund with denmark, when they think you crying for new service, december, the 1st time in 25 years. ah. to go in forces in order to t o p. a say they're ready for seas far talks with the federal government as long as certain conditions are met. that is a growing people's liberation front, posted a statement on twitter, demanding a full withdrawal of foreign troops from the region,

as well as the u. n. investigation into ethiopia, and it's eritrea and allies for alleged war crimes and crimes against humanity. regional leaders also wants the on the hens are delivery of humanitarian aids, help with a reproach, repair creation of displaced people and their calling on prime minister abbey government to restore electricity and internet services in te gray mean for all the you. and she says you, that's nothing less than fool, humanitarian access to all of the fuel p c gray region. billions that are at risk of starvation. as government is accused of destroying infrastructure and blocking crucial aids from guessing through to grind, forces reaching the regional capital mckelly on monday. after fighting where the fuel government forces unfair allies for months. i am deeply concerned with the present situation in the great. it is essential to have

a real fire and the real fire facing the way for a dialogue, able to bring the political solution to take away. the presence of foreign troops is a negative, a thing factor of confrontation. and at the same time, full human italian excess and restrictive human italian excess must be getting teeth to the whole territory. captain soy as lie 1st beneath his cap and so just above, catherine, the life has come back with its demands for a conditions for a seas far. one of them is the removal of all foreign troops in the region. who are they referring to their, when they talk about foreign troops? i mean, are they including the ethiopian government forces in that description? while we have seen that statement by that, the grand leadership is very strongly wooded. and basically what it specifically

says about those stupid days that troops from airy traffic and regional fighters from the neighboring i'm hiring region must withdraw from to cry redone. we know that if your troops already started withdrawing on monday, we also that statement also says that the government must recognize t p less than the t grid, people's liberation front as the legitimate leadership regional government in t guy. it also says that 30 grands who are in detention must be released. those who been forced to exile must be allowed to come back. and if that statement not only calls on the you, when to form this investigative body, to investigate the atrocities that have been committed against that the grand since the war started in november, it also says that another independent international body mass be instituted to

basically truck and the implementation of this demand. now we have a hot, a new reaction from the government. it's going to be very interesting to see how the government respond. but i also think it's going to be difficult for the government to accept a sum of this demand. for example, by legitimizing the t p last leadership as a government off the guy, the government basically will be admitting defeat. but there are some on the list to talk to us saying that the have. this is a small window to the start of a political dialogue between the 2 sides gate. meanwhile, the humanitarian situation in that region remains dire. humanitarian groups just haven't had access to the region. neither have journalists in the organization such as rune, was the likelihood of any aids making its way into the region. now that this, the potential for this cease fire and especially given the words that the un

secretary general while the s c guy is not yet open. we've been speaking to government officials, the deputy prime minister here, nadisa baba recently met with diplomats and states that the space is going to be open to un humanitarian flights. now we don't know when that is going to happen. we spoke to a state minister foreign affairs redwin the same who said that is going to be soon enough. so negotiations are still going on with that. but even if the s space is going to be open, huge logistical challenges to getting aid to those who need it most. as we speak, there's no electricity in the guy. there's no telecommunication network that has been cut off. people can only communicate to satellite phones. infrastructure in some area has been destroyed. both sides, the, the government, the federal government, and are, you know, both sides are choosing each other of destroying this infrastructure breaches that

connect, the reason have also been destroyed. so a work because we're talking to saying that's all this needs to be fixed, some areas there's fighting going on. and i mean, as we know, more than 400000 people are in farming, many more are on the brink of it. so aid was really saying that they are running against time. they need to get to many people as possible as soon as possible. ok, catherine. sorry, that is the very latest for me at this. i'm about catherine. thank you. well, the tea grid conflict has come at a time, a sound relations in ethiopia and its neighbors because of the grands renee sewn. stam. if you'll be locked in a years long dispute about the project with egypt and see john have successfully requested it. be discussed as an urgent session over you and security council. on top of that, there's also friction between ethiopia, sit on over the use of 1st l lands on the border as hipaa. morgan reports.

when rebels the grand capital this week, the future government said that was because it had withdrawn its forces. it says it needs them to focus on other threats to the country. when the gym or by you don't just go to the goal of declaring a cease fire. and the to gray region is to neutralize the danger of the 2 great people's liberation front and withdraw military equipment from there. because the region does not currently pose a threat to the country, the exit of the army from too great is one of the steps to address the external threats to the renee sounds damn and fill the gaps. the renaissance them is built on the blue nile source of 80 percent of the miles waters. it's set to become africa, the largest hydro electric down upon completion. if you says it's some help lift millions of people out of poverty, but talks to reach an agreement with the downstream country, sudan, and egypt over the dams filling and operation have repeatedly failed. joint military drills between piano and egypt dubbed the guardians of them. i'll have

race compare and egypt is worried about the amount of water it will get when the damage failed. and so dan says it's concerned about the impact, the dam will have on its own dams, especially one name to say with which lies 100 kilometers away from the guard. he said the whole city are very dumb, has the capacity of 7000000000 cubic meters, and the renaissance done has the capacity of 74000000000 cubic meter. you can't operate the 2 down without that information sharing agreement that is legally binding, which we need to guarantee the safety and operation of our dams to ensure farmers compliant crop. it's not the only security issue if europe has been facing in the region since november, it's been locked in the border conflict with sedan over elfish, i got a 3000 square kilometer agricultural air, yet claimed by both sides. a colonial era agreement with sugar as part of to them. but if you can, farmers say it belongs to them and they've been farming on it for nearly 50 years,

docks to end the border conflict between sedan and if you have thought since december. so dan says it was if you have to abide by the 19 or 2 boundaries and increase the number of markers along the border. if you'll be says it was to the nice troops to withdraw from sugar for any sorts of negotiations to resume a condition rejected by sudan. the border conflict has cost lives on both sides. some analysts fee, a full confrontation is not completely off with table. with all of the tensions across the sedan, if you're in border, these include the negotiations of the grandees up in renee on stem. the conflict over alpha should go farm lens as well as some tension over areas further south. but along the border, sit down and we have had a rocky set of relations in recent months. so, you know, the way this is clear as yes, the grand rebels have rejected the sea flyer announced by the government after taking over the northern region from the federal forces and whether it's true

circle, south of pig right or left on their own. there's no denying that there are unresolved issues, that if you, your troops may need to focus on people morgan, all to 0 alpha sugar bodies to them. also south africa, and i were former presidents, jacob zimmer has made a surprise early appearance for his supporters of candidates, and his hopes for showing support is in a fight against going to prison for 15 months now. he was found guilty of contempt of court, but a judge has agreed to hear his appeal next week last night to me to mila who's in candler for us? for me, the. the surprise appears that from jacob summa will say, been saying, what is he saying? and saudi standing right behind you. it sounds as if he's just been introduced or that the tree was just the support is i've been told that he's about to speak to me is on that mobile stage behind us. we are able to hear

everything from here, but we expect that he would say something along the lines that he has been in the last day or 2 when he addressed the people within his in candler homestead, where basically he said that i don't know what i've done wrong, i've done nothing wrong. he. he says that this is really about the political campaign against him, and he's also criticized the judicial system in south africa saying that it's targeted him and that is, it's not independent. he also told supporters yesterday that he would not hand himself over and all that deadline is looming. he supposed to hand him, so i'm self over by midnight tonight. and if he doesn't do that, it's likely that there will be a warrant of a risk issued for the former president. but also we know that he's approaching the high court in close natal to get a stay of imprisonment. a stay of that committal that was signed by the chief justice of the constitutional court saying that he should be arrested should hand

himself over within 5 days or be face to rest. after that, he remains adamant that he's not going to jail. he's also a post the constitutional court to review its judgment made week that he should spend 15 months in prison for contempt of court. and as you can see behind me, more supporters have turned out to demonstrate their support for the former president. many of them saying they're here to protect him and they absolutely refuse for him to be arrested. well, if the, the jacobs ever says he insists he's done nothing wrong. he is literally going head to head against the highest cords in the lands here. support clearly don't want him to be arrested, but the law is the law for me to so i mean, is there a chance this could turn ugly, especially given the, the passions running high on the stage in front of the stage.

and we've spoken to some of the supporters whoa, who say that they're angry. you know, we saw fairly pen scenes here earlier today when people were firing into the and again, people saying that they're angry, they're unhappy with the leadership and they're here to protect the former president. now what happens next couple of days is quite technical. when he goes to the high court and choosing for stay of the imprisonment, we don't know yet if the high court will say that's within its jurisdiction. because as you rightly said, the constitutional court is the highest court in the land. that isn't an appeal, and that's what's also important to note that when he goes to the constitutional court on the 12th of july, to have them review that judgement, it's not an appeal, essentially pleading with him to consider certain factors like his age ill health. and he also says that there are a number of reasons why he didn't cooperate with the constitutional court. and the

commission of inquiry into corruption. he cited the fact that the government has pulled financing his legal fees. he says he's broke account for those legal fees. again, he says that he just can't afford to go to prison because they would effectively be a death sentence. and the people who agree with that and, and they are taking it quite emotionally that a person that they call the father of the nation that they call their father could potentially go to jail. it's without saying it of caution, it would be important to watch what happens in con land the next couple of days, especially if the high court says it doesn't have jurisdiction, or if the high court says that, no, they won't give you that stay of imprisonment. it's likely that the police would then have to enforce that order. they would have to risk the might on tuesday or wednesday when that last deadline comes up. so very 10 situation be very lucky, very course i'll not of course will let you get back to that rally feature. but for

now, for me to miller break is the very latest from candler in south africa. thank case at lots more hands on this new site, including packing sense of position unites the challenge quite a bit in ron kon, in an area as a hotline for his party. kind of sports, i think nearly 5 decades, but milwaukee bucks back humanity or finals. we'll have more with angie's place in the show. ah, my military plane has crashed in the philippines, killing at least 29 people to see 130 aircraft went down on the islands as to the province. it was transporting soldiers to reinforce positions against the armed group of sas. the defense ministry says to play in miss their own way and an investigation will begin. once recovery efforts have finished jimmy until then has

more for manila. while it's easily now, slowly being seen as one of the worst cases of military accidents or crashes. in recent philippine history, there have been around 3 c, 130 accidents based on available data. but what we know at this point is that around 11 30 am local time this see 130 which was commissioned and was handed over to the philippine air force in february took off from the airport. they've got a, an order which is one of the biggest cities also in mindanao carrying about $92.00 people. 85 of them were soldiers. it landed, but it has been described as the aeroplane figured in a landing mishap in whole lot. according to the secretary of defense rescue operations rescue and retrieval operations are under way. we've been see terrible pictures of the crash site,

but the government is still hopeful that there will still be more survivors that need be pulled out from the wreckage. at this point, according to also the government rescue, rescue planes are now well on their way. and those who have been received and taken to the most or the closest military station hospital in law. those who are believed to be more critical will be taken to the $1.00 to $50.00. now, for those who do not understand this, hello, it's actually area. this is the most militarized area. in the southern philippines, there are thousands of troops rotated, they're constantly, it may be as small runway, but c, $130.00 is constantly land here for supplies and true rotations. cyprus is appealing for international helps. if i to forest far considered the worst in decades, at least 4 people were killed as the place spread from the southern lou muscle districts. strong winds and high temperatures for several villages to be evacuated

. cypress has been experiencing a week long heat wave, with temperatures reaching up to 40 degrees celsius. at least 3 people have been killed us tropical cycle and elsa bafford, the southern coast of haiti and the american republic. when gus, 110 kilometers now, hit the regional saturday, the cycle and has been downgraded to tropical storm, but is still packing strong winds. storms of course have other parts of the caribbean. the united states east coast in the coming days. rain is slowing. the search for survivors of a landslide in japan rescue teams are looking for 20 people missing in the coastal city of autonomy in south twice of tokyo. really see people on that side was bad weather is facing central and eastern japan. that $155.00 julians are beginning a huge task of rewriting the constitution. it's a replaced on inherited from the pillar,

shade the pages shapiro. she levels is to overhaul the constitution. after months of social on rest will daniels finally join sister life from when i read, daniel, this is an important day but the hard work really begins. no doesn't it? it really does how this is the culmination of a long process that you may remember began in 92019 with these mass protests across chile, offensively started by, arise in transport fast. but really that was just the capitalist for years and years of frustration. anger people being left out, they felt the political process. now, beginning the process of rewriting, as you mentioned, that constitution, they have 9 months with an optional 3 months to i don't to that, to deliver that to new constitution. the idea being the more children's will be included in the political with

a democratic process of the $155.00 people elected in may. 65 of them don't belong to any of the conventional political parties. they represent all the groups in society. they have gender parity that's rare, anywhere in the world that they've established. agenda parity, 78 men 77 women. 17 of these seats have been set aside. thought lays indigenous population. you have l g, b, t, communities, you have people with disabilities are represented. so that there's the idea ready, it's going to be now 9 months, probably one year of intense discussions to try to come up with that new constitution to replace the one established in, in 1980, which proved stability to chilly. but for a very small minority, many cher lands really feeling they've been left out and this a bit to get them back into the political process. it won't be easy, but i think many children. so this is

a very exciting beginning. the 2nd year is 9 months of an optional extra 3 months doesn't sound like a very long time when it comes to overhauling a constitution of a nation, or people really expecting this document to be completed and just the year i think some, i think that hopeful but i don't know how to mistake of a are over this. some elements will be the deadline was put there for a per person. it's going to be very intense. the other big problem is that no major group has formed in the 155 to 40 of the articles to be approved. they don't need the 2 thirds majority. there is no group big enough to veto any of those articles. as i mentioned, 65 of the 155 are from independent non conventional political parties. we don't know how they're going to vote. we don't know what kind of coalitions, what kind of alliances they might for. we don't know how they operate. so that's

going to be the big unknown in this and really they're feeling the other way, very tentatively. this is a new process. nobody's seen like of it anywhere before. so really we're going to see how quickly they can do things, how effectively they can do things over this next 9 months to a year. not a very exciting process indeed, especially for those ensure they will keep a close sign up for tonight, daniel trailer. why from one inside the thank you. now she was being described as a game changer for babies and infants living with h. i v. agencies or distributing a strawberry flavor tablet for youngsters in 6 african countries. now under a pricing agreement between the u. n. and the generic drug makers, the combination therapy, will cost $120.00 for each child annually. not stone for $480.00. currently only half of the estimated 1800000 children with

h i v get treatment is often hard to administer due to the bitter taste of the medicine or incorrect dosages from crushed adult pills. let's get more now from janet guin ard. she's the director of strategy of unit aids, a global health agency she joyce is no by skype from geneva. great. have you with us on the use or just thought of explaining just how important developments this is. thanks very much. this is really a tremendous breakthrough. it's a new child friendly h i v medicine. it's going to be reaching countries where it's going to be making a tremendous difference. as we said, about 1800000 children are living with h. i v worldwide, but only half of them receive treatment. so we still see $100000.00 children dying of aids each year. so this is really a game changer. we're very excited with unit cade and the clinton hall access

foundation tied to be working together and seeing 1st delivery of this new, groundbreaking medication in nigeria, malawi, uganda, kenya, them, by the way, i'm betting was the task that we don't forget to get people get used on this program, but this is certainly very good news for the youngsters concerns. just talk us through. hi. hi, this became possible. is this time to medical advances or is this don't so the, the corporate have aspects of getting us on boards with these different ages is to make sure this madison's affordable. how did it come about? yes. well, the great story of collaboration. so this is a 1st line h i v treatment that was recommended by the world health organization for maybe the smallest 4 weeks old, him 3 kilos. but until now that was out of reach because of the issues that you mentioned, the bitter taste, the need to crush adult pills. the lack of an appropriate formulation is an

innovative partnership between unit have chai, the health care of the originator company that worked with a medicine patent pool to allow generic producers to make the drug at an affordable price. so it's now be a tourist and mccloud supplying the drug. it's try and imitate, working together to make sure that gets into countries. so really it's a great story of collaboration and really exciting to be seeing the drug being used and reaching those children who can benefit. absolutely. and in terms of the impact this is going to have on these children's lives, their families lies. what do you think this means in terms of child mortality rates from age an h i v i big differences they're going to make? well, we really think that it will drive down mortality let re significantly the earlier children get on treatment. the greater their chances of survival. so as i mentioned 800000 kids dying from h,

i v aids related illnesses each year. we really see an opportunity to drive that down dramatically. but then another thing you mentioned with the cost reductions, it's a 75 percent cost reduction that will really liberate the resources to get more children on treatment more people on treatment and really save a lot of life. but certainly very good to hear. john, again, our director of strategy for units aides. thank you so much for joining us on the news. our talk is through this really exciting developments. great. well, not positive notes time for the weather. here's mckelly else's, moved remarkably quickly from hitting barbados and running through very quickly, but doing some damage to getting to jamaica. that's the course of a rabbit. last 2 days. it flirted was being a hurricane when she was right. 12 hours and it's back down to being of course like that, it's a difference of only about 10 kilometers per hour. maybe 20. so it's just the wind

speed. the damage potential remains the same great deal of rain or flash flooding. there's a storm surge, which means above normal tides get one half meters out about there if you're like added to that water. so that affects boyland areas and the risk mo and her for haiti, they're becoming less so jamaica, and cuba and it's cuba where this thing is heading to spend most of sundays daylight hours is currently a tropical storm warning, but a hurricane watch, which means it might turn into a hurricane, once again, strengthened the winds. there was a causal interact with the high ground of central cuba producing flash floods. then the thing will re emerge on the northern shores of the waters science of florida. yeah, it could become a hurricane again. and even if it doesn't, it's going to affect all of florida by throwing its rein towards miami. and already of course we got flooding in temper. so come here on algae farrah, they're out of jail and still fighting for independence. look at what's next to
