let me get the reported. in recent months, the office of the refugee relief and reparation commissioner has severely restricted media access to the cox's bizarre refugee camp. making it difficult to gather news, but it's clear, many ravages feel fearful and angry monitor that we didn't were very worried about his killing. he was a leader in the community. he pleaded our cause to the world. many who did not want to be identified on camera told al, does it or that the murder is the latest example of a fight for power between armed gangs inside the world's largest refugee camp, turn recharged re i'll just need a quote to prolong cox's bizarre, outgoing philippine president regina jew, tatty has announced he is retiring from politics. hearing speculation, his daughter may run for president. he confirmed he won't stand for the vice presidency and next year's elections while accompanying his ally. so to christopher, go as he found his own candidacy for the post,
1:21 am
the constitution prevents to charity from standing for president. again, he says, there's overwhelming public sentiment trying to become vice president would violate the spirit of the constitution terminal. and no gun has more from manila. whether the terry has claimed that he's going to retire from politics will impact the 2022 elections remain to be seen. that is because there is still around 6 days to go before the ending of the filing of candidacy. and there is still up to november 15th, where parties and candidates are allowed to switch candidates. this is a multi party system where you can have as many as 76 candidates in a presidential elections where you can have those backing out, supporting another others pledging allegiance, and pulling out a loyalty alliances. at this point, it is definitely too early to tell, and it was the 3rd it did today president through the good that there does

switching and changing his mind is quintessentially the 3rd day. this is his political style. but what remains to be seen is who will field, who will be the administration bet for the 2022 presidential elections. there is still no opposition candidate. so again, it remains to be seen. it will take several months before we truly know who really has a strong chance of becoming the next president of the philippines. thanks for being counted in cut as 1st legislative elections. people have been choosing 30 of the 45 seats on assure a council would turn out announced as being 63.5 percent to marsh. our reports hinder, for the 1st time in their lives. countries have chosen who will represent them when it comes to drafting the country's laws and monitoring the government's performance . on saturday, thousands across the small peninsula took to one of 30 different polling stations in the nation's 1st ever legislative elections. no asking or asking on that it close on one. and this is a broadway as omen. they can have
1:23 am
a chance to chat with you about the for us. this is a democratic ceremony, but it's new and modern for guitar, and every one is participating in this council. as important for the citizen and the state. until now, the shorter council has been an advisory body appointed solely by the amir, with limited powers. however, in its new form, 2 thirds of its is elected by the people and it'll have the ability to draft laws, approve or reject budgets and even question and sack ministers. after the 2017, the author of located the crisis, i believe are that the political maturity among the country people have been raised very, very carefully and very, are mature to the extent that it's not about that other people are, you know, asking for such who are election, even though we've been listening to some voices from the elite pupil. however, it's more about top button approach that had been supported and initiated by, by the, the, the political leadership. unlike other countries in the region that have witnessed
1:24 am
mass protests in uprisings demanding a change in governance, the move towards greater representation and cut out, it has been driven by the leadership. despite this top down dr to a more inclusive political system, the turn out in saturdays polls indicate that many and cut our own favor of having a greater c with no political parties in the gulf states. the new legislators are expected to come under greater individual scrutiny issues, such as labor, law reforms, economic policy, and who gets to take part in future elections will be some of the defining topics for when the shorter counsel gets to work. some countries have already complained about being left out of the electoral process for many parties. these shorter electrons are not simply about the results with people now given a c, as to who represents them, every one is a winner. widening participation and empowering different sections of society, underscore is cut out as branding as a country that has often positioned itself differently to its neighbors when it
1:25 am
comes to political pluralism and freedom of expression. jemila shall al jazeera. thou ha, georgians had been voting in municipal elections, which could see the ruling party forced to hold a new national vote at the vote was overshadowed by the surprised return and arrest of the country's former president. because like i should really from to be see robin forest walker reports ah, of the pulls close to which is given parking, gluten and quickly victory khaki must, as i do, that george in society has once again, given a proper response to the political forces, are those streams for revenge, which threatened at all a date with violence and unrest. that's the kind of colorful language which characterizes the deep polarization in georgia politics right now. after months of political stalemate, saturday's local elections were a chance for voters themselves to have their say more efficacy holiday.
1:26 am
i mean, they all learn how to deal with each other without a allied and also i will be good for everyone. we're coming to every election with hope. we've grown old waiting for something to change. but let's see people in the selection of been voting for candidates who will make a difference to their daily lives. mares and counselors who will fix their rose, run their towns and cities. but instead of this election being about new policies, really it's been all about old enmities. the government has never stopped blaming ex president michael sack asheville and his united national movement party for the country's problems wanted for abusive power while in office. his surprised return from exile on the eve of the election and swift,
1:27 am
the rest threatened disability of his vote. he earlier claimed his supporters will take to the street after election day. george's political problems, it seems a far from over with in 1st he walker. i'll to 0 to believe i bombing at a wedding in the afghan province of jars, n has kill at least one person. reportedly the bride, the attack targeted a wedding hole echo sources of tar al jazeera 5 others were injured. a taliban is reiterated. it's cool for the us to halt its drone operations over afghan air space pulling into violation of last year's due high agreement in an interview without a 0 the groups foreign affairs spokesman was also asked about women's rights and said it will take time to see change we have committed and we have guaranteed all the rights that have been afforded to women in islam. that is the right to

education, the right to health care, the right to work. and are they the, the process that the world wants us for the steps they want, want us to take, we are taking them, we have seen progress in them. we understand all the complexities, offer off the of the current world. we understand it very well. and we are working . but again, i must emphasize that as the saying certain goes wrong was not built in a day. emergency services in la palmer have lifted a stay at home order in effect in areas near the islands erupting volcano about their urgent people to limit the time they spend out doors. as the con rubia, her volcano continues dispute lava and thick clouds of black smoke, new fishes have been opening up, giving rise to where options and earthquakes. hundreds of homes have been destroyed and thousands of people have been forced to leave since they eruptions began almost 2 weeks ago. jona hull has more from near the volcano in la palmera. i have said
1:29 am
all along this is an unpredictable event. this eruption that is constantly evolving the vulgar balkan artists of warned people to expect anything at any time. and so it has proven in the past few days, let me step out the way so that you can have a closer look at this extraordinary view of an erupting volcano. here you can see the lava spewing high into the air. there a new vent that was opened on thursday night is now in full flow. it's been described as a new focus of the eruption it's emitting more liquid, faster flowing lava, which is now heading off in a new lava stream, a new direction towards the north. it's expected that the topography of the mountain side will eventually lead it round in a loop to join the original lava stream heading down to the sea. but the war is that in the creation of that loop around it takes in more property, potentially more buildings. and infrastructure in its path that we know that overnight,
1:30 am
there were more buildings that did succumb engulfed by the lover. although at this point we're told houses are not under threat or the head of the local government in a press conference, described it as a worrying. he said this meant more drama ahead. potentially more people who would need to be helped. there are no current plans for further evacuation, but of course the worry will be that among the $6000.00 people already evacuated, that at least some of them may in the coming days and hours lose some of their property or potential their homes. kim and you can catch up any time with all the stories we're carrying on our website out here. talk. com ah top stories, missouri, hundreds of marches are taking place across the u. s. to defend women's reproductive rights following new abortion laws,
