12:02 am
a new cabinet is led by prime minister designate the g mccarty, lebanon's richest man. in an emotional speech, she vowed to save the country, but you'll have to fix an economy that's effectively collapse. the lebanese pound has lost 90 percent of its value since october 2019 a result of decades of corruption and unsustainable financing. in that same period, food inflation has exploded. rising 557 percent according to the world food program . many parents is skipping meals or pulling that children out of school so they can afford to put food on the table. moving 80 percent of the population is now living in poverty. people don't have electricity for more than a few hours a day. and the government can afford fuel to power generators, which means crippling shortages, threatened to shut down hospitals. bakeries on the internet. then a honda reports now from 11th capital bay route. it's been more than
12:03 am
a year of political wrangling, lebanon's feuding politicians have now reached a deal on the distribution of power in cabinet. it's common for them to argue for months, but this time so much is at stake. the incoming government needs to stop the financial collapse and know how to help me. i hope that we can bring our country back on its feet. let me hope that this government will be able to function at least put an end to the bleeding hall. and we can all come together as one hand to bring back 11 on feet proud and prosperous. the political paralysis had worse and than economic crisis. the united nation says more than 80 percent of the population is considered poor up from 42 percent 2 years ago. since then, the local currency has lost more than 90 percent of its value. the minimum wage is worth just $35.00. now our salary barely less 2 days, we are depriving our own children from what they thought though she went on with
12:04 am
those officials should return all the money they stole and transferred abroad. the political class is blamed for decades of corruption and unsustainable financing. months of street protests and international pressure failed to bring about a new leadership. not optimistic that this government can actually undertake the funds because they have shown voc, they are ready to hijack any forms that actually help the people versus safe guard . the interests of the one percent or the ones who are politically connected, people have been struggling to meet their basic needs. there are shortages of almost everything, including fuel. the incoming government is not the non partisan cabinet specialist demanded by the international community to unlock a, but it appears they are ready to work with what they call a capable government may ask you does say he has ford backing, but many people feel that there will be little change with the same parties in power. the local currency did gain against the dollar on the exchange market,
12:05 am
but lebanon is experiencing hyper inflation. and in days, subsidies on basic goods will end. the government's formation is only the beginning . so they're also theda, beirut. we can now speak to nashville, i'm a senior policy advisor for oxygen in bay root a regular pallet. i mean that he joins us on the phone rather than being envision, thank you for taking the time to speak to us. now state produced electricity supply has collapse. how's it? and then at the same time, you have crippling fuel shortages in the country, which means no diesel to power generators for those people that can afford to have generators. how is this affecting people and especially hospitals when you're in the middle of a public health crisis? yeah, to thank you for calling san juan
12:06 am

12:07 am
right and just the, the line is a little bit fuzzy. so let me just you talking there about steep price rises. so this is affecting everything from food to fuel and it's putting families in a very difficult position. they are struggling to support themselves. and we've been talking about parents not being able to put food on the table. and now what hope is there that they have money? i was just going to ask you about the new government. is there any hope that they can stop this slide into deepening poverty? somehow revise bailout talks with the i m f. yeah, so i mean, i mean, the government that has grown out of the uprising already . i mean, do you want any booth out, the old governments we've been having in the country for the last 2 years and
12:08 am
supreme needs of the balance of the financial industry just going to so i mean you've got to start jason's maybe what happened is like more form for me based on the offset it measured on, on called self centered way did. i'm probably going one megabyte of suits. and in my opinion, this is the continuation of but in the last 2 years, where the key thing the price of the crisis said was that it's under and young to be of any quality measures or the forms on the table such as progress station or lunch or making,
12:09 am
you know, those who benefit from the crisis course, the crisis a, the price of africa, you'd like to see some forms that forms out to the vendor should be demonstrate for you to set that up, but not quite good for me. but it's more of us getting more and more of now, but you know, it's a good support unless we have, you know, a government system or people who came down to the teams getting uprising, we won't have them substantially changed in the future. all right, well thank you very much for joining us and it will from august, i'm joining from beirut. appreciate it. now. israeli police
12:10 am
a thing. they've caught 2 out of 6 palestinian prisoners who escaped from maxima security jail. on monday they were captured on mount precipice. a christian holy sign in the city of nazareth, for others is still on the run. after digging a hole and breaking out of the prison, their escape set off a furious man hunt across israel and to be occupied. westbank live now to hurry for said, who's in western selim? any more information about how these prisoners were captured will? yes, there is reporting in the israeli media. firstly, the names of the 2 men, they are yahoo! country and mac wood out of day both from palestinians. i mean she had the latter of those to reported to be the really to the mastermind behind this escape. and these is really media report suggests that in the nazareth area they were spotted
12:11 am
either or both looking for food and bins or, or asking local residents for food that is the reporting from the israeli media at least. and it was after that that is where the security forces moved in and arrested them. there are concerns being expressed by palestinian prisoner advocacy groups about what may now happen to the 2 men as the search for the other for continues. given the fact that these very security forces have in the past, use the precept of a ticking bomb or some major security crisis as justifying, enhanced interrogation, otherwise known as torture. so there are concerns as to exactly what kind of interrogation these 2 men may now face. there have been hundreds of people marching south of janine in the occupied west bank, near these 2 men homes in solidarity with them. there was a fairly major military operation to the north of janine and the aftermath of these
12:12 am
arrest as well, which we understand is now over some confrontations between palestinians and israeli security forces in that area as well. but, but the main headline is the 2 of the 6 have now being recaptured. there's more about these confrontations and typically a protest taking place in a number of cities over the the collective punishment and cracked down inside the prison. well indeed, since monday since this escape, there has been a wide spread crackdown throughout these really prison networks focusing on palestinian islamic jihad members because 5 of the 6 escapees are from that faction . these really security forces in presence of a saying that it's an attempt to try to break up power structures. but as far as the palestinians are concerned, the powers, you know, 30 prison groups are concerned. they say that this is a collective punishment,
12:13 am
a retaliatory move, and it's not just affecting palestinian islamic jihad prisoners who have been moved in the hundreds between prisons, but also a why to move against prisoners restricting amounts of time allowed out to a recreation, a band on family visits until at least the end of the month and other moves as well, which have seen some resistance within the prisons. some cells being satellite. and as you say, protests in the occupied west bank and in gaza during the course of friday. the concern is, i think exactly what happens at the end of this, this hunt, 2 of them have now been recaptured without bloodshed. but if there is some kind of stand off, if there is death involved a violent end to this hunt than that could see why the destabilization and violence in the occupied west bank palestinians led me to you had, has vowed vengeance in the form of presumably rocket attacks if that would happen
12:14 am
and already, even after this initial recapture of these 2 members of positives is, i mean you had, the israeli military is saying that it intercepted one rocket coming out of gaza on friday night. the i don't system intercepting that rocket. thank you. from western hurry force it we go to guinea, now the country's new military rule is are on the increasing diplomatic pressure. the african union has suspended them after the last weekend's crew while and voice from the west african lines eco watch of how talks with the army leaders in the capital con crea. they've also met with the deposed president of con, day and demanding he'd be released, special forces soldiers behind the crews say they ousted condo because of widespread poverty and corruption. while there is an interest in con, a korean centers, this update, there are real concerns among people here in kentucky and other parts of guinea. these, we were talking about a community or
12:15 am
a nation that has suffered enough of high levels of poverty, economics type nation. in equities, crimes, as well as what they accused of the government of high 100 net over the last 11 years. something the new military rulers. yeah. say they want to correct now the fia, the real. yeah. is that if they tell me community of west africa and the african union, go ahead with the threats of sanctions. this could watson can condition a poor guineas who already suffered enough under the previous government. it's a big problem for them. but so far, the meeting between the course and the new military rule, a c i in duty has passed on somehow a high note, we've spoken with some of the daily members of the delegation, who insisted yes, that the, that the discussions between them was preliminary and they were frank and the open,
12:16 am
and they also got the opportunity of meeting, i think, the post president of guinea, alpha conder concessions will have to come one way or the other on both sides from a course and from the military rulership, in guinea, for the military leadership in guinea, keeping alpha condie in custody is one of one ways to extract as much co specialist as they can from they can have a community of west africa states. they just copying the script that was played in molly last year when you were going to get to was fact by the military was arrested and kept invitation by the military and eventually a course needed or had to negotiate his release before he was thrown out of the country, what of course didn't succeed in doing here in guinea concrete today as they were unable to set free mister alpha condie. and they were unable to immediately restore democratic rule of constitutional rule as they put it. so the next few weeks will
12:17 am
determine how then it goes, he's just go watching the news, our life from london still ahead for you on the program. we look at the battle for hearts minds and guns in the democratic republic of congo. so charged with endangering the lives of others. francis for my health minister is put on the formal investigation over the corona virus pandemic. and then a bit later, counting down to her. now there's my interesting, i should return. we'll have one that with jemma. ah, the united nations is kinda what it calls the taliban is increasingly violent. responds to john, listen, peaceful protest. as the statement comes a day off to to afghan report to say they were tortured by taliban forces for covering a protest. b u and also warned against the use of battens in width on protest as
12:18 am
well as live ammunition which it said it killed 4 people on thursday and acting. taliban ministers said any attacks on journalists would be investigated. we call on the time of and immediately sees the use of force towards and the arbitrary detention of those exercising their right to peaceful assembly. and the journalists who are covering the protests authorities must ensure a safe, enabling and non discriminatory environment for the exercise of human rights, including freedom of expression on peaceful assembly. blanket restrictions on peaceful assemblies constitute a violation of international law. all 93 percent of afghan families are going hungry with many people going to extreme measures to survive. this is according to the wild food program. it says many people are already skipping meals or giving food to children instead of adults as the country faces, economic collapse, food shortages and job losses are the primary cause of concern for the family
12:19 am
survey with winter approaching fast and the economy collapsing, they're worried. well, just it's now a race against time snow to deliver life, saving assistance to the people who need it most. we need to be rich, $9000000.00 people per month. i november. if we're to meet our plan target the $40000000.00 by the end of the year with appeal for $200000000.00. and a number of countries have come forward and they the officers. but we are quite literally begging and borrowing to avoid food stocks running out well. traders in afghanistan, capital combo say they are struggling with the slow pace of business. despite improvement in the security situation, after the taliban swept into our shopkeepers, say hardly any of their goods. are being sold and a lot of it is going to waste afghans of reported a lack of jobs across the country. people having to queue for hours to access cash
12:20 am
. banks were closed for weeks when the taliban initially took control. so the modem, the, the anything is getting sold, i sell houses, stuff at normal prices, but some are compelled to sell it a loss. the security situation is improved. crime is stopped. the bed is also disappeared. there is no food. business is at a standstill, reaping vegetable is to sell at the markets, but not much sold. what has happened? nobody is asking about us, poor people. flour is expensive, cooking and is expensive. everything is expensive. there is no one to take care of the poor people. or fidel is a traditional closing combo. the taliban government is proving to be a boost for business. but those selling western called clothing like jeans and t shirts and suits and seeing their income, dry up shop owners of reported and increased demand for conservative governments. spite the fact that many afghans facing economic stress and does it for the
12:21 am
business as change. no people are going for genes and teachers, do you want traditional code on west coast? people don't have money to buy unless they coming to us more than before. what? we know the developments, the 2nd commercial flight from i've gone on since the taliban took control has landed in cats. are around a 160 people on board. the cat trailways flight, which touched down in doha. some of the passengers will be transported to a facility housing afghan evacuees, cutoff foreign ministry says cobble airport, his operational, and it's up to other airlines to decide whether to use it or not. and then the 1st events has been held in the united states. demarc 20 years since the 911 attacks remembered sorry, many was held at a pentagon in washington to honor the victims. the us military headquarters was one of the targets along with the twin towers of the world trade center and new york attack as flu, hijacked planes into buildings. with almost 3000 people killed, more events that used to take place in new york on saturday.
12:22 am
or on the event of the anniversary, the head of persons domestic intelligence agency is warned that the taliban toko take over enough gun astonish, emboldened extremists, and could possibly fuel more attacks against the west. let's discuss this now with alan had shown will he be a former us counter terrorism adviser in afghanistan, and founder of rise to piece a group which focuses on education to prevent extremism, he joins us now from washington. so as the u. s. commemorates the tragedy of the 911 attacks has foreign policy in the decades since that time eliminated the threats of something like this happening again. i did not see such a way because we are doing the same mistake we did back in 1992. when the sylvia flip up honest on us, forgot what i've watched on and look 911 happened today. we see want
12:23 am
a st on in the hands of taller bond and we have no trust in this new partner that will work to help the tall united states in combining terrorism. so i see more at the same scenario back in 1990. that happened to the current situation, i think for him, policy wise, us have neglected to understand of last on strategic location and trusted partners and combating terrorism. so it's too early to see if the taller one can deliver what the promise its actions speak louder than words. what could the us have done to prevent the current scenario footprints on the ground and keeping a small, the us intelligence driven forces and honest on. because the whole evacuation was a huge failure. american people, both democrats and republicans feel that by part of the war and bipartisan public opinion wanted the american troops to be out of honest on to end the endless wars, but not the way it was handled. the think in order to prevent any future 911 style
12:24 am
attack, the u. s. should have trusted partners and have footprints enough on a stone. as of right now we have nothing. we have nobody. we have word versus intelligence operator. that could have a student launched on that could have work, i think diplomatically in regional wise us could have worked some sort of deal with the taller bond with the african government that could have a state. and the could have preserved the structure of one government while a taller one being part of it. but in reality it was, everything was left at a time on. so right now what the us have compared to what they had a couple of weeks ago is words of a tolerable right. so obviously a taliban was running the country before the us led invasion and some would say that was kind of inevitable that they would seize control again. and given that the, there was this insurgency throughout the, the us occupation of the country. they might not be a trusted partner,
12:25 am
but is then not tactical cooperation between the u. s. and the taliban. now well, we see reports. we see the secretary blinking express happening from the taller bond for a living the other for a national believe i want to one and 2 flights of poplar. and i think since last year they form african from a us special for that that will make a little up. our one is on. he had meetings at the tolerable leadership. tall one have promised to cut pilot al qaeda and help us in counterterrorism. this is something what the u. s. wanted back in 2001 of us wanted to get rid of a some a been a lot on bring democracy, not lost on and have a trusted partner, a strong institution. well, the intention was good, but the way it was handled the strategy, the whole, the lack of a grant strategy filled the united states. as of right now, we are, they feel like earlier, it's worth it a ton of on versus the action. look under the tall, one, control,
12:26 am
13 american marines die under the tall one, control ice is excluded the bomb at the airport. so i think their actions will deliver what is it a taller bond where they could be trusted or not? when it comes to, i says, when it comes to dyess and i've watched on that is not right, we need to, we need to look into it. whether it's a ton of on or going to be able to prevent dies from making it way to central asia . because tolerable and have been focusing on on us on while i die as it focusing on the united muslims in south and central asia. so there's a lot of the rock faith in the us and allied in the region much more he be. thank you. thank you for having a congress nobel peace prize winner is calling for an international court to investigate crimes in the democratic republic of congo. dennis quag, a says impunity for brutal crimes is entrenched and local people are living in fear . it's estimated more than

12:29 am
reintegration within the security forces of the key element. and so the containment, it has to be the show that the people so which means that everything has to be ready for the containment to be a very short time. because we integration piece within the community is the most important. some of the groups are nervous about the new conditions. if we, the government wants to change anything in our previous agreement, it will require everyone with whom we find to come back and explain clearly the changes, especially wait on us up to a dozen group continue to terrorize villages in tory people. he tell us, they're worried that he's disarming. their rebel spills again. their problems will only get was government the procedure. you've begun to not agree with the rebels. we are afraid to go back to the forest and touch terrorize enough again, looting our property. the fighters say they don't want to have to return to the
