2:02 pm
president of m. o. e's early this morning. according to him, the attack was carried out by a commander group made up a 4 and elements injured. martine louise, the late president's wife, isn't hospital. the prime minister calls for come, while who was driving out movies. he was a former business man who was voted into office in 2015, a poll that was later canceled on grounds of fraud. he was elected again a year later, but wasn't sworn into office until february 20 haven't seen the disputed election led to intensified demonstrations in 2018 demanding his resignation. the next year, 18 electoral council postpone legislative elections indefinitely with louise ruling by decree from january 2020. this february, the haitian governmental authorities foiled and attempted coup with mounting anger from opposition leaders, the haitian public over when president moses mandate would end. let's find out more and bring an anti gallagher who's joining us from miami andi. what more hearing
2:03 pm
about this assassination? well, it seems like an all gang gotten to job. now movie says home in the early hours of wednesday morning. there were some reports that some of these men spoke spanish. some of them were dressed as drug enforcement agency agents, which are us agents. and that the 1st lady was shot, an injured she's now in the hospital shop. now movies was been, has been ruling by decree and 80 since about 2019. that's something that's been very frustrating for people in haiti that there are no elections over the past. couple of years for various different reasons, but the critics of job now my, we say that he was starting to cement power. they were starting to see signs that he was a going back in haiti's history, where people like devali a rule in the country and were auto crowds. so over the last year or so there's
2:04 pm
been an increase in gang violence in particular, st. protests there, of course, are pretty commonplace because people aren't so happy with the democratic process. often times in haiti when there is an election, you know, the average vote gets to pick between 25 or 35 different parties. so in terms of a democracy, it's quite a young one because remember just 35 years ago that was when developed a rule, the country with an iron fist and tens of thousands of people were killed. but that's what he's critic say. there are other people that say shop now, my wife was doing things that needed to be done like changing the penal code. but this, well, i think put this nation on the edge, which is already pretty much on the edge most of the time. anyway, as haiti wakes up this morning and people realize that the president has been assassinated, the reaction will be one that will be watch very closely. indeed, because the security situation there even at the best of times, is pretty fragile. so we are waiting to see what the remaining government of haiti
2:05 pm
will do, apparently, on meeting with ministers as we speak to plot out the next move. i think this is, i think for his what is most supporters bad news. he's someone that was known in haiti as the banana man, someone i met as he was running as a candidate because of his background in agriculture. but his critics also say he was hand picked by the previous president. so as ever, in a country like haiti, democracy though is something that's very difficult given this nation's history, given the autocrat sort of rolled over this all over this nation before. so this is difficult. i think they're also dealing with cobra. 1900, still recovering from the earthquake more than 10 years ago. it is about situation . if a president is assassinated in a place like haiti, yeah, we'll have to wait and see what the reaction is and obviously what impact this is going to have on the country. but in terms of who's running the country and who steps in? what are you hearing about that situation? is there a government right now and place?
2:06 pm
i mean there is a government right in place and it seems like his deputy will, will step into those shoes. you know, if possible, but that's really not the point. the point is the, the democratic presence has now been assassinated. that's never a good thing at any nation. never mind. one as precarious as haiti often is. it is that lack of leadership that lack of knowing what will happen next because these elections keep getting delayed every time when there are election. certainly when i've been there in the past, that has been problems and accusations of falsifying votes and people tending up to the election h q to, to make their voices heard. but it's a very complicated situation. this is not a country where democracy has been practice for a very long time. as one academic i spoke to $81.00 time, tell me look for a young democracy which will still try to figure things out. but this is certainly not good news for a nation that is one of the poorest,
2:07 pm
if not the poorest in the world. most people in haiti live on about $50.00 a month. there is extreme poverty everywhere. basically subsaharan africa is the only poor a nation place in the world. so it is very difficult situation. they want these elections to keep going. they keep getting delayed. mo east was criticized for trying to cement power. and now reportedly he's been assassinated. thank you so much. and the gallagher reporting from miami me indonesia is imposing tough. no current of ours restrictions. as the government warns the nation is yet to see the worst of aspiring outbreak. another record of more than 34000 new infections were reported on tuesday. there were a $1040.00 decks that's about 7 times the daily rate a month ago. the johns hopkins university tracker shows overall 2300000 cases in nearly 62000 lives loss since depend, demik began. well,

2:09 pm
in many instances, they're unsuccessful at doing that, some are trying to buy oxygen tanks or medication to keep their loved ones to live, but the death toll is increasing because of this crisis. these grades have been working non stop. we've been observing the situation here for the past few hours and the bodies never stop coming. these men never stop working. such is the situation. the scale of the crisis here in indonesia, the indonesian government says it is working to try to rectify the crisis in some ways, including trying to source more oxygen for those in critical need. that it includes trying to source oxygen from neighboring singapore. the health ministry also says it is attempting to add more beds to hospitals, as well as increase the number of isolation facilities. but health care workers say
2:10 pm
that they are overwhelmed and overrun, and that no matter how many beds they're all in these hospitals. simple reality is, is that there is not enough health care stuff to cater for the demand. right now, there are far too many people, falling critically ill in indonesia for doctors to take care of all of them. and this is the result. bangladesh continues to battle a day in the surgeon cases led by the highly contagious delta variance. and it's prompted the government to extend district locked down until july 14th and the streets of dock us soldiers were seen directing traffic and a specialized police unit administering hand sanitizer. while in other areas, people have been lining up for essential goods and food hand out elsewhere in asia, south korea is reporting as high as daily corona, virus counts and late december. more than a 1200 infections were recorded on wednesday, forcing a delay in plans to ease restrictions. the government may in fact introduce tougher measures. and the lockdown in australia's biggest city has been extended by weakest

2:12 pm
optimism about life after the us military departure. we should not worry about the u. s. withdraw. we are muslims and depend on our god. we cannot rely on the u. s. as they were russians here in the past. now americans, we should not wait for another superpower to come and help us, and we should not worry about them any more. as he's on raise, dream of self reliance may not be shared by many within the afghan government. they're accusing the us of leaving the bog warm air base last week without advance notice something. the americans have been quick to deny. i can tell you that afghan leaders, civilian and military were appropriately coordinated with and briefed about the turnover of bottom air base. in fact, the us central command set on tuesday, the ballroom was the 7th and final military base. i turned over to afghan control. they said the hand overtook several weeks and that the u. s. isn't abandoning
2:13 pm
afghanistan. we have every intention of continuing an ongoing president presence in cobble, which is continually even after we bring our military who are serving a home by the end of august. but other images from the provinces tell a different story. afghan soldiers have either deserted their posts and fled. or as taliban media puts it, decided to join the opposition. but the afghan government says this is a temporary setback. situation will not continue and it's all on are not able to reject the audio or the defects which are being taken over by game. and we're getting the, the, and we will watch them on the phone and we will capture the biden administration is worried about these developments and the taller bonds commitment to a peaceful future. it's not saying so. analysts say there is reason to be concerned said the interest of the united states in the interests of countries in the region
2:14 pm
to ensure that the afghan government does not collapse. but we're heading to a pretty dark place at the moment. some on the streets of barbara already think the dark place has arrived. i mean, you can see now a lot of districts have surrendered to the taliban. even some afghan forces have fled to tajikistan. and i'm telling you that afghan forces will not be able to secure our country if there will be no foreign support. we will witness once again, civil war here. a pivotal or perhaps inevitable moment for the afghan people after 20 years of the us led war. rosalyn jordan al jazeera washington or based used by us troops in iraq has been attacked with missiles. at least 7 rockets landed on the air basin and bar province. 3 missiles were also fired towards it. on monday, no one has claimed responsibility for the attack. so head on al jazeera setting sail at last, the ever given get, get the all clear to leave behind. this was can now blockage ordeal. but how much

2:19 pm
exactly what will unfold over the next couple of days. in the wake of this. i mean, since his election on there have been continual problems and contestation of legitimacy as president. and the last few years again, have a really worse and a crisis adding to that most recently cove, it crisis has, has been dealt with very poorly. so it's been sort of a series of combination of crises. and i think the issue is that there has been a sort of impasse, a political impasse about how to move forward for some time. this will obviously change the political situation and dynamic quite a bit because it was kind of keeping the ways in place or having movies in place was, was part of the strategy. it seems from outside, from outside of government. and now it opens up a whole new set of questions about exactly what, what the next shoot, the government will be and what happens now the challenge, i think,
2:20 pm
really the fundamental challenge will be to, to sort of return to the work of creating a kind of a civic process through which the population can really participate that has really been frayed and minimized over the last few years. and i think the one hope will be to try to find a way to, to create that process. not really to focus immediately on elections or other elections into part of that, but really to address core structural issues that have been at play that have allowed the situation to get where it has. well, let's continue the conversation of the false raj room, who is an english teacher in haiti. he's joining us from a cap pace. yeah, thank you so much for speaking to us. tell us what your reaction is to this news that the president has been assassinated. okay, the asian nation, people work up this morning with the bad news about the association of president. this was never more easy. hired

2:22 pm
if japanese owner has reached the financial settlement with egypt, governments on monday, the ever given was impounded after a block, the crystal waterway for 6 days impact around 10 percent of global trade. egypt had demanded a $550000000.00 settlement. but details of the final vo haven't been revealed guy plot and is the secretary general, the international chamber of shipping. he's joining us vice guy from london. thanks for speaking to us. so as were saying the terms of the deal, a not yet revealed, the egyptians were after half a $1000000000.00. what do you think happened in that agreement? will we ever find out how much was actually paid? we are no party to the agreement, but i think we just really please now that agreement has been reached between the canal authority and the vessel owners and ensures as well on the ships on this way . but most importantly for the crew as well as uncertain 3 months waiting for the negotiations to conclude so really place the ships on the way i understand she'll be getting to port car about 5 o'clock local time today. so that's,
2:23 pm
that's really good news as to what we can say and the ship will be on the way to talk to them and to continue port calls and offload those containers. right. and it's possible to kind of say who was at fault. now with the benefit of hindsight, i think we fluctuate for the investigation, but i think firstly the ship run the ground, that the fact that sues cannot afford to able to clear the ship in 6 days. is quite remarkable, and we think we have to wait that the final outcome of the investigations before we can really understand that the reasons behind it. but nonetheless, we're really pleased that the ship is now on away. and so we can put this behind us, you know, when the ship was stuck in the service guy was costing well trade, but $5000000000.00 a day. so it just shows you the fragility of the supply chain and how much we depend on shipping. and for everyday lives. in fact, that's what i wanted to ask you about how much it was costing the, the global trade, because it doesn't also affect the global shipping industry, but also the egyptian economy itself and a countless businesses. exactly. you know,
2:24 pm
you know, every. busy ship apostasy, the canals paid a fee, a toe to get through the canal to the $6.00 days that was disrupted. i think there was an excess of $300.00 chips waiting at either end of the canal to transit. they can. now we know that some ships change the route to go round the coast of south africa, adding expense and delays to their voyages as well. so the fact vacated in 6 days was, was extant given us. at some point some commentators thought it will be weeks that the come out will be blocked. so and any study that part is a cost, dejection, economy, buddy and of course well trade money as well. in terms of the crew that was on board the ever given stuck on that ship for months as you know, who would have been looking after them. so the, the best loaners, the ship managers would have been looking after the well for, you know, they were well treated. we understand and they were, you know, but nonetheless, it was on certain top them of course had to stay with the ship for the safety of the ship. so the fact that the negotiation to conclude the ships in the way,
2:25 pm
i think primarily is great use of them, which means that they can be relieved. an opportunity and go home to that to their families, which, which is good and, and the ship can continue on a voyage. thank you so much guy patent for taking the time and speaking to us from london. thank you. now a prominent dutch crime reporter has been shot and seriously wounded on a street in amsterdam. peter r. devries was gone down on tuesday evening. he's known for his investigative work and exposing the dutch underworld reason police protection in the past after receiving threats for his involvement in criminal cases. the philippines. second most active volcano is on the verge of another erection. the towel volcano and batangas province has been spewing large volumes of gas and steam since last week. thousands of people from high risk areas have fled their homes. the volcano last erupt, it in january last year. tropical storm elsa has been upgraded to a hurricane as it skirts the coast of the us state of florida. the national
