33 degrees, whether that was over a turkeys the black sea region, ne boxy region, still impacting parts of georgia, but otherwise, things are looking good. plenty of sunshine here. lot of what weather for the congo we've scooped up 61 millimeters of rain over in camera room to all up more than a 100 millimeters. and we see our big storms set up through ethiopia, kenya, and they move toward the west for their toward the south. plenty of sunshine temperatures heating up, keep down at 24, but windy though for the eastern cape. we could see gus here about 70 kilometers per hour. port elizabeth has a height of 70 ok. i'm not a fan. see soon the . ready too often of cornerstone is portrayed through the prism of war. but there were many thanks to the brave individuals who risk their lives to

protect it from destruction. an extraordinary film archive standing for decades reveals the forgotten truth of the countries modern history. the forbidden real part one, the birth of afghan cinema on it. just the latest news as it breaks. the concern is that my suits force is coming round on the mountain ridges. trying to surround this area in order to isolate school with detailed coverage, serial power fil live, and my how much sick he takes all the major strategic decision from around the world. the water rose so quickly at this new jersey apartment complex. it caught many people off guard. oh,

i get a very good hearing though, that he's out from out here of the headlines. the us thing, more sanctions, if finance continues and ethiopia is open to the region by the ministration is looking to put pressure on all war and policies to and the price of china is accused the u. s. destroyer of colluding to smith. it's reputation of the 2 countries joint britain and a new military alliance. straight as prime minister is shrinking off a chain. zango of the un security council has extended the mandate of its mission and chemist on the 6 months because he has animals, they settled on a temporary extension, given the uncertainty enough kennasoft since the time about take. let's return now to one of those top stories and use security agreement in the asia pacific because of the deal, a strange will tear up an existing submarine agreement with france and critic say

that paris should have seen this coming in april australia is prime minister scott morrison refused to sign a contract for the next phase of the project. though it issues right from the start . first, a major cyber security concern was raised just before the contract was signed in 2016. that august. the french naval group ship builder admitted that it had been hacked. then there were the budget blow outs. the project was worth $36000000000.00 when it was signed, but a sense balloon to more than $65000000000.00. and the 1st submarines were originally meant to be ready to see by the early 20 thirty's. but even that was pushed back benjamin husky, which is a research fellow in the school of regulation and global governance at the stadium national university. he says the study and government was right in its decision, but couldn't handle the situation better. is entirely understandable illustrator, you would want to not have these french submarines at hot blow out overruns in terms of the timeline. it probably would have been a vessel not suitable for the strategic environment. the distributor finds itself

in. but getting out of this for the sub deal was done in a really hands messy way without a working part. it would seem, without doing the diplomatic round work, springing this agreement on friends and creating a huge amount of diplomatic upset and frustration at a time what a stranger was trying to bring friends and other external power into its region as a counterbalance the chinese power. so the palais in china is the pros of massive military expansion, and that is focused on the naval realm, in particular with china, receiving the ability to project naval power around the globe. given that context is quite understandable that countries like australia, like the united states, would be nervous and we seek to have some kind of military counterbalance to this growing chinese military. my having said that, the way in which the strains of signed up to this deal is really problematic from the point of view it's reading policy and then astray was effectively locking itself in to us policy on china, which is increasingly hostile,

increasingly adversarial australia is giving itself very low to the new bar and the united states is intent on confronting china. and this trailer is going to be part of that you are holding without your telling you that it needs to navigate. it is really complex time rushing across the country, lining up the cost efforts in parliamentary elections. people have 3 days to cost that balance. the representatives to the duma poll show support for the governing united russia party at an all time low. however, many candidates who are opposed to president bloody may put in a been excluded from the elections more now from i'll just here as bernard smith in moscow, where many posting stations about a class the 1st day of voting. we've been to one polling station, another part of moscow with very, very long queues outside it. but that is unusual. was a long queue on a friday morning of people clearly working age. the election commission says they were all military workers who turned up after night shift to get the vote in early,

but carrying for several hours and one independent observer groups. so they didn't see anybody in military uniforms. many of the polling stations, i like the one where i am, it's very, very quiet. they've had maybe about 100 people voting here since paul's open to 8 o'clock this morning. opposition, groups about that support is actually not to vote until late on sunday because they fear that any earlier than that the vote could risk being interfered with being asked to leave as late as possible. the criminal wants united russia to do well is the party, the support, bloody man, putin is low in the poles, only about 27 percent support russians are very angry with crumbling infrastructure falling quality of life, 20 percent living below the poverty line. and the fear is they'll take out their frustration on united russia. several leaders from the west african regional block eco was in guinea to meet with military leaders a day after imposing sanctions on them. and that amounting the elections be held within 6 months. guinea was suspended from echo was last week after

a military coup removed, president of a candidate from power. let's go live dot called a cree. i'll just here is an address, is that for us, who actually from echo was, is that in guinea? because there was, that was some doubt earliest as to who actually gone well, basically, 2 heads of states. the sitting chairman, of course and president have gotten a knock before i don't let the delegation, although the president of ivory coast are less than what tara flew in earlier than mister. i do now. they've come to this hotel where they met the leadership of the military. don't tie in corner creek. and right now as we speak at the end of that meeting, they proceeded to another meeting other mom at the 5th presidential palace. yeah, also here in conner creek we, we understand that they will me job the post president for conduct. ok. so

yesterday echo was slapped sanctions on the military leaders. demonte the elections be held quickly. and how's that all going down with the military rule is there in guinea for many of the top military hierarchy here. it was a surprise that was not expecting such a short period of transition. one was even heard saying that it's impossible to organize that within a short time because of the current economic situation in the country because of copied 19. and those was some of the things that surprised them. that why expect and probably another 18 months 24 months, as was the case with molly, which was a little down to 18 months by the way. and of course his house also deliberated on that matter. yesterday. it's now the military leadership here. why expected something much longer than 6 months. so it came as

a surprise to them for guinea ends. the expectations were the fear is actually way such that it cannot make functions and embargoes would be imposed on this country. which could father complicate the level of poverty of the level of it cannot be caught, people are facing here and now, but of course as much and issued a list of sanctions not targeting the civilian population. but of course targeting the military leadership in coconut creek. however, one, i know this was even say, how much do these military officers have extended me anyway? so we are waiting to see what will become of that meeting that's currently taking place. but you know, less than what sarah, mista now i do, and mr. con david post president we, i lot of people assume that what happened in molly last year may repeat itself. yeah, the military have been using mr. condi as a bargaining chip. it's not clear whether not before i do,

and the president of i recourse will fly out with mr. conner today. but that's some people expect to happen. actually. i was serious. i'm going to dress reporting live from kind of treat guinea many thanks. deed on this trade us in northeast and democratic republic of congo, say that it's becoming increasingly difficult to run that businesses because of our groups. a state of emergency has been declared in tory and north kito provinces, but many fear the situation is not improving. i'll just here as catherine sawyer reports now from the tempo in north kiefer. this is one of the busiest trade routes in the eastern democratic republic of congo, merchandise from uganda, kenya, and beyond, comes across the border of the town of cindy in uganda and into libya in the congo . most of the goods end up in temple, a business hob, innocuous province, minerals for mining areas are also transported using this route. but rebel groups

in north q and the neighboring it to re provinces have made doing business dangerous. poly cop vito is a trade union leader and sees the traders enough q andy. tory have collectively lost more than half a $1000000000.00 in recent years because of attacks by armed groups including the democratic forces. you see it already through this one. the bottom look will become tricia middleton, a gold come in for mining areas or government needs to delete these rebels. nearly 2 weeks ago, fighters from the armed group, almost a convoy and killed several people keep not thumb and burned dozens of vehicles. this was despite the national army and un peacekeepers being present. catholic of police was in his vehicle when they were a talk, he had to flee and hiding the forest. his car was torched, global reports on the convoy is usually very long and the security escort is

limited and the road is also very bad. so we can't even speed in dangerous areas. sometimes one car can develop a mechanical problem, but the rest of the convoy including the escort moves on use gaps in the convoy to separate us. most of the drivers here in town was saying they're not traveling to bornea to the province anymore because of the security situation. they say that being talked by on the group, the vehicle destroyed and now with a suspension of military convoys along that truth. the situation is just getting worse for them. after we left, those security escorts resumed in the region. it's been under military rule since may when the government declared a state of emergency. while that when the fight to me, we have done the 1st phase of the rebel cleanup, we have secured government territories. we have to get somebody that you are not accessible because of the security situation. now we are going into the 2nd phase to get them completely out of civilian areas and then neutralize some of these

drivers back in september and not optimistic. they say they've lost many of their loved ones in their property and have listened to many government promises for way too long without seeing security. improve, catherine all the 0 enough key will province democratic republic of congo, several high profile scandals. so put a spotlight on the workings of the ty police force, which is directly controlled by the prime minister. it comes with the time when pro democracy protests to finding new momentum, just warning that you may find some of the images and got hi, this report. distressing yet the socket age upon is an officer in the royalty police, but on the weekends he's a cattle farmer on my ball one and i don't make enough money as a cup. i have 2 young children who else do in school and i've been living paycheck to paycheck. even though i'm a car. if they don't have a 2nd source of income,
