12:10 am
ordered too early to say that they won't allow women to study or they won't allow females to study. we can't judge at the moment because we know that a political hand over happened just 20 to 30 days ago. we are working together, and we promised and we committed certain things to be done together. so it is just a month or 2 and tedious now, but we are having a great working relationship so far with the the faculty of health sciences, the maximum number of students, according to the university, almost 40 percent female students who are right now starting as far as health sciences, the concern you can see that the glasses are on the international community, of course has been critical of don for not allowing female children to go to the educational institution. but we have been able to see them back with their studies

12:12 am
by 2 of his former clubs in the premier league. he's held on not in the school i now the u. s. is started flying migrants out of the texas border city, where thousands of mostly haitians have taken shelter under a bridge. an estimated 14000 migrants have gathered in del rio after crossing the rio grande river from mexico, seattle, and soon ya. hey, tease prime minister ariel on re says that he's worried about conditions in the camp. and we'll welcome back any migrants. many haitians left the country for south america after a devastating of quake in 2010 u. s. authority say they've moved around 3300 people this weekend and they planned to increase that number. we are bringing additional resources with 3 migrant care press rotation and processing. we are providing food,
12:13 am
water for the toilet towels. emergency maintenance technicians are available 1st day. if someone needs medical care beyond what are you used to provide? were working with a local medical facilities for additional care. we are working around the clock, take additional li, move migrate out of it for me underneath this bridge to our processing facility in order to quickly process and remove individuals from the united states. consistent with our laws and our policies, but you know, i don't want to be deported, yvonne deported now i'll die in haiti. why? because there's no security in haiti or abundance. there is civil war every day. civil war with police. it is very complicated because there is no leadership and hey, there is nothing out there as john holman, has been following the story. he joins us live now from c o that aconia in mexico.
12:14 am
explain to us why you are right now, john and what you've been witnessing over the past few hours. actually, it was really interesting to me to hear there for the poor patrol person because of people that we've seen coming back in across the river behind us. the real brand, they separate mexico from united states. they sort of telling us a completely different picture. so what they've been telling us is that they have to come back across the mexican side to get food, get water to get any medicine stop. because there's nothing in the time. obviously the same thing for the house. he was saying that there isn't really anything for them to check because the u. s. a sources haven't allowed us into that camp. went in yesterday for tech to try get in for me
12:15 am
and then we also try to get across the river to get in this. and so we tried every instance, we kind of yours so sorry, things haven't let people been going back across this river trying to bring through stuff. you can see the gentleman next to us. now he's pretty much the more things i'm hoping to get it cross the river is getting more and more cross for them because it's getting deeper because they can authority of opened up a time server upstream. they haven't just opened up the data is something that they fairly regularly do and that's just increased the water level. you can see we got across it earlier on the day and it was under waste level. look at the people trying to get across. now this is rid of the people to drown when they, when they trying to get across where we have seen migrant. now talking about the united states plans that put people in flights during the back to haiti. so we see something that is happening now. some of these people are aware of him, but they say to me, what are we going to do here?
12:16 am
we stuck between nick so he doesn't want to. united states doesn't seem to want. and we feel we can't go back home because the countries are not mess right now. they're still trying to cross the river because they over at least be on the us side. whatever. john, tell us what people are saying about the flight. the us authorities, an accelerating to, to poor people back home to haiti. yeah, it's a real worry for people because pay t at the moment and this is a country the i visited regularly. i just had a matter of a place in the south west, in which i'm community completely devastated. it's got a political crisis in which the president was killed in july and the prime minister, who's the over leader of the country right now has actually been accused by federal prosecutor by public prosecutor being part of the assassination of the president.
12:17 am
so politically, it's a huge mess too. so the poorest country in the americas itself is repeatedly from that disasters. and these people think you can see actually if we do a little pond around us from our credit here on the bank, these people are telling us they've actually like come from haiti, some of them recently, but they've been in south america across years. having fled from some of the things that are happening in the country now going up from south america to get to this point has been a bit of a journey for them. they go for an area, many of them could the diary and gas, which is just notorious for rating murder and for robbing. it's a luminous jungle between panama and columbia. we've already heard stories about what people have gone through. obviously, this is hugely difficult costs for the us authority, little town across the river del rio, the 35000 people. us authorities is saying there might be up to 14000 migrant
12:18 am
arrived at this makes you can pay the last couple of weeks. that's a huge talk for them to be able to accommodate them, decide what to do from them. but the situation is far from a deal for everyone, especially the people that are around the on the other side. thank you very much shown home from aconia and mexico will. even ron bolt is the communications director at the non partisan thing. time police in haiti joined us now from the capital port print. thank you for taking the time to speak to us on the news hour. so who, hearing the us authorities of ramping up flights, we're moving thousands of haitians moving them away from texas. tell us about the situation that awaits them. they're in haiti. what are they flying back to? thanks for calling him or if it's a very difficult situation. now i don't, i don't, i don't think that people are coming back to have, you know, find a bit alive. you know, these people that sold everything. the good thing they had to be able to go to
12:19 am
start from are we got 1st and then trouble starting from and then go back and go to the united states. i'm telling you about, you know, livestock or call or you know, the nature of that that they had their hours. they had to sell everything to have the money to buy goods and then be able to course going to some continue to. and i think so it's difficult to get them back to going back to some kind of normal life here because they're not going up and job. you know, more than 60 percent of patients working on any job and . and on top of that, the insecurity situation like you are getting to everyone and kicking people, kidnapping people are killing people. why? you're kidding, which are the so it's a very messy situation and we don't,
12:20 am
we don't think that that's the best way to handle the crisis. why not? as you say, these were talking about thousands of haitians who are stock now in texas. many of them continuing to make johnny, they would have, i mean, they've made a very arduous trip just to get to where they are now. they're going to be deported back home, but of course they sacrifice everything they had just in order to be able to leave the country. and they're going to be any, any help or assistance for them from the government. what if you have the, the thing that patients are living right in items like you don't, you can't rely on the government for anything. of course, of course the government is going to try to do what you can do. but most of the time asians, people like the vast majority of the nation, people,
12:21 am
they both receive any help from the government. lead in, look for the public service, important friends right now, or even in the countryside, we know having a full service. like, why don't we not tricity like myself, maybe like 4. busy or 3 hours of electricity per day. so we don't think that the government can, will be able to do something for these people. they're not going to be able to give them housing. they're not going to be able to give them food. because on top of that, you love the staff of haiti that is leaving a very difficult situation right now. we've been like one month ago and a tropical storm grease. so i think the government has a lot on its way to deal with people to take care of the immigrant that are coming with the national guard. what is the greatest threat people are facing? is it a political instability? is it a gang violence? food and fuel shortages, and do you think that those people that are being deported will simply try to make
12:22 am
that journey again because of that desperation very likely, very, very likely because one of them and one of the 2 companies like the month immigration of haitian to me with the medicine 72 and we went back to the july. so since then, because of the ability to go to oppression and over the people are trying to get new to me, they don't want to have because of that situation of forwarding. once you can give them a particular company, and you can, you know, create conditions for them to leave in the country. think because haitian, they're like every normal people, they want to be in a place where they can have food, where they can send the kids to school, where they can find playgrounds. they want to live in haiti. but in that situation
12:23 am
in unbearable, they're not going to, danny didn't want to try to go by any gun not working. when you asked people that are not working, and they don't have any choice going on for any thing to go back to the what, what you don't like us. so this policy, we're turning by cation sensor and the 1980. why that might be some nation because their thinking is humans offering for oppression was the ation of things over the. but if the oppression and have been helping the ability that is creating that forwarding, so it's inflate. the forwarding is not like coming from, nor is coming from, you know, the way the content conversion. and the way the content provides. most of the time . it's my people to be backed. so yeah, so it's, it's kind of the institution going to just say, i'm going to keep some people that come to our borders and i'm going to send the other ones back to the country to get them back in the poverty and misery because
12:24 am
it's just one for thank you, even rambo for joining us from puerto prince. there were low counting is underway after 3 days of parliamentary elections in russia. exit polls for the pro, boots in united russia party on cause to win with around 45 percent of the vote. but that's a slump of almost 10 percent since the last election in 2016 was criminal critics were bought from running after a year of crackdowns. and they've been numerous reports of irregularities including pilots, ballot, stuffing, and forced voting. alger there is bernard smith, now reports
12:25 am
mcculla bon off is one of more than a 1000 candidates in these parliamentary elections backed by tactical voting campaign. who activists believe a bet placed to defeat the pro kremlin united russia party. it's a strategy conceived by supporters of jailed opposition activists, alexi, nevada. but lavano is up against a formidable state election machine that's done all it count to make sure it's preferred candidate wins. that includes barring opposition, candidates from standing at the family and they were, i mentioned, this is the debt has come in since 2011 in moscow. people have forgotten what it used to be like. we have seen various examples of followed box stuffing. the court of human rights ruled that the results of the 2011 parliamentary elections were seriously compromised muscle bruster, but almost like him only because the smart voting system told me who it is preferable to vote for. otherwise, nothing would have made me come not to go so i can even if i were both changed,
12:26 am
please get the feedback about many people being unhappy because of this year rushes leading vote monitoring group goals says long queues on the 1st day of voting. clearly demonstrate what it calls a level of administrative coercion. it says it receive reports of ballot box is not being secured at night. follow box stuffing and complaints that electronic votes. easy to manipulate. gulf says the scale of the reported fraud is unprecedented. was that sherman pursued certain bicola opposition is to demonstrate the not everything is destroyed that there are still some alternative methods of influencing politics . it's a modest go, but extremely important because at one end of the scale is the idea of totalitarian power. muddled on the soviet union when the elections showed 99.9 percent, no matter how people actually voted. russia election commission has rejected allegations of widespread ballot rigging and says the voting system couldn't be
12:27 am
more transparent. the exit polls point to a victory for united russia, but with a reduced vote, the communist seems to be the main beneficiary. i think, for united russia, super majority for the opposition. hope all is not lost for russia, democracy, bernard, algebra, moscow. so let's discuss this now with tommy le lang. quino is a professor of international relations at the london school of economics and political science. so the programmed in united russia party is expected to win these parliamentary elections. but is there a possibility that they could lose the super majority they carney have in the duma or the parliament? absolutely, there is a possibility. but let me 1st present by saying that as your report has rightly pointed out, these elections have been accompanied by unprecedented levels. of manipulation,
12:28 am
intimidation, even physical violence against observers. and so when we talk about numbers, it's, it's, it's very relative, it's, there is a big question mark as to the meaningfulness of even discussing what these numbers will mean for the, for the different parties of the constellation of party. and of course, we're all watching very carefully how much the communist party, the compare will garner and we are already. we are seeing that over the last couple of years, how the results for the program in united russia party, i thought of slowly and gradually creeping up. so a couple of hours ago when i started tuning to follow be the 1st result was 38.8 percent for united russia. now as your report pointed out, it's more like 45 percent. so whereas the share for the communist party,
12:29 am
the compare it being reduced. so clearly there is when you relation and sibling going on as we speak. and there will be probably a lot of bad happening overnight as well. and of course then you can also look at it a lot, how full or half empty situation whereby we should all send the brain be perhaps the success of the grand pain of the vine, a, of the opposition activist who is, would been in jail for 8 months in campaigning for the smart bolting whereby voters were encouraged to, to cross their for any party other than united russia. candidates have been those of united russia and create some of that have gone to the barrier. and hopefully, some of the people who will come through will be january kind of independent
12:30 am
figure rather than the week compare individual how much, how much does the president have? and is that much of a difference in the level of popularity between vladimir putin and the united russia party? there is too, i'm to your 2nd question for there is that there is clearly a different there. and there is someone balance mind for the other leader and associated with the party like dmitri mcveigh, who as far as i know didn't turn up to be kind of party celebration this evening that allegedly he had a cold or something like that. so again, it's clearly genuinely popular when you.
