a citizens in afghanistan, telling them to stay away from hotels in cobble. oh, and celebrations in australia's largest city after a long cove 19 lockdown is lifted. i'm joanna roscoe, with your sports france put the disappointment of hearing 2020 behind them by winning the way foot nations leaves. that's all coming up later. this is hours for you, sir, so ah, thank you very much for joining as we begin this news hour in iraq where we're expecting results from sundays parliamentary vote to be announced shortly. the election commission says turn out was about 41 percent. that's the lowest in the 5 election as in sam, hussein was deposed in 2003 voter apathy. and a boycott campaign appear to have contributed to the record, low turnout. life to our is mahmud abdullah, hot in baghdad for

a. so were expecting an announcement mammo from the electoral commission to we know exactly what they'll be announcing and when we're fully that could, that could be a speaking about the results, initial rhythms over the initial term. now it, it is not known for certain what this person is going to announce. we have been trying to speak to the high national election commission officials here that they do not did not say clearly why they're going to announce. but in old cases, in all cases, as you know, that the initial turnout has been announced last night, 41 percent initial turnout, but not fine. and remember this only 95 percent of the pulling the station up a collection. but in all cases, in all cases, they announce it earlier that over 9000000 voters, ha ha ha, had just cast their votes from 25000000. and both of those are

eligible to vote. but in all cases, by virtue of the elect, shallow, their results have to be analysis within 24 hours from the closure of the pulling sessions. what happened at 6 pm the last night about the local time. and remember, this is not, this is not the final decision because even with the announcement of the final over the initial results today, they have to go through a many procedures that includes a appeal objections. those have to be old submitted to the federal court to put the final judgement and that there is no, there is no final final result to be announced or to be expected before the federal court rules and judges or passes the final judgment and this it, he got so it could be some time before we know what the parliament and the goth and

will look like from what you say. less talk about the turnout, the initial turn out as you say, it's not the final number as foster not as concerned, but it is still the lowest in the 5 election since a saddam hussein was deposed. what is behind this low turn out was definitely if i may say, disillusionment this illusion meant of the hopes of the ambitions of the revolutionaries. remember this early erection was one of the top demands of the revolution that ousted the prime minister, rather than have them at the app that was conducted by it of loosened his back in 2019. but eventually those young people, they, they, they have rejected this election. they say that it is just a reproducing of the same old parties. oh, they home, they rose up against back in 2019. they say, in fact,

they accused those are the political about his, of corruption of mismanagement, of said having only their own as to the interests. remember they all the political parties have been at shedding all the authorities in the country, including security authorities, that defense justice, foreign ministry officials and finance. and during the past 2 years, the, the people who rose up against these political parties have been saying that way cannot accept this alicia election unless it brings they changed the hope for. and by the way, some of those young people, they, they run for this a for this election. and it seems that some of them have gained most of the boats. because in some cities, including the city of north korea, we have been getting reuse about one of the faces of the tree and of loosely that he, he, he said that he has gained the votes in there and in the,

in the parliamentary election in marcia city and he was very well known for the tree revolution. thank you for the moment ma'am. would have done what had life for us there in baghdad, as we continue to await an announcement from the iraqi electoral commission about sundays parliamentary elections. let's discuss this further now with homage rusty who's also in baghdad, his the director of the house of iraqi expertise foundation, which is a think tank fan tank. thank you so much for being with us. so we, as we wait for, for the results, let's talk about the low turnout again as we were saying with my more this, this is not the final tally, of course, but nonetheless, a low turnout. what would that mean? as far as the legitimacy of the results well, what's happened yesterday it was a, a. busy magnificent think is that all the political parties war actually were

shocked because of 2 things. number one, the low participation in the elections. and number 2, what we hearing now is that, say roon is getting the highest number of seats. i've got never since 2003. it's the only political she out political party that get at least now that's what i'm hearing is about more than 70 seats, which is something didn't happen since 2003. so what we are now going forward is that we're gonna be in the stand, iraq gonna be in a stand, is that they will, we will have a majority government. it's not a comprehensive or let's say corporation government or, or some sort of reforming governments. so that means is that if it is, it is right that's i don't wanna get more than 70 seats. that means i ruin the katie b would. the sunnis will get the majority of all i see to this element and that will make i did the government as items are up to you. yeah,

i'm sorry to interrupt you. i mean there are no official results yet. this is just something that you've heard. we don't know what the results of this parliamentary election are, but they had also been before the election. they had been speculation that at the populace, shia cleric looked at our sorrows, movement could actually merge as you know, the biggest block in parliament. if that is the case, what would that indicate as far as the balance of power? while i'd say it, show you that we are we going to be in a new era of, of balancing the power in a way or another. we going to see something a jani was something very strange in the iraqi politics, is that we will really have a majority of a political block inside them inside the parliament. now, who actually what happened to reach an into that situation is actually the low participation that we all know since yesterday. now i hack said the commission said

it's, it's more than 40 people now doubting this numbers because we all saw the same commission, i think at 4 pm, it's only 19 percent. so you can imagine is that we have a problem with the participation a percentage and let us not forget something very important. is that as the, the number or let's say the participation percentage will not actually be a barometer for the legitimacy of the luncheon, which was going to bring me back to my initial nitrogen cleo. yeah. which was bringing me back to my initial question, if the turnout is indeed low, whatever blog you know, appears to be the biggest in this parliament, how legitimate will they be? and how legitimate will the next government be given that most iraqis stayed away from the polls? legally, it's legitimate. but on the, on the legitimacy in front of the people, the, it's something else that means the,

this parliament, the government, it should be, are formed after the 1st session of the parliament. it will not be really to presenting the iraqi people. because if the turnout is, is less than 20, or let's say 25 or something like that, it show you that the legitimate did the legitimacy in front of the people, we will have a problem on. so all those things need to be managed. well, that's why i'm really worried about the real turn out percentage that it should be a declared by by i hack by the, by the commission, the electoral commission in a way or another. it show you how much the or the political environment in baghdad in all of iraq is actually shocked with the number of voters with the participation percentage and also with the upcoming results. does it show you that a majority of say, you don't, will be inside the she are a majority of, of tuckered them inside the sunny and the katie be in the kurdish area. so again,

it show you how much it will be at the, at the it will be in a way or another, a difficult situation in the negotiation for forming a new government unaddressed. he thank you so much for talking to us. i'm sure we'll be talking to you again. one see initial results from those from the parliamentary elections. the sat to come in. thank you very much for your time indonesia. meanwhile, president k site has approved a new government appointed by the prime minister match that would then chose her cabinet more than 2 months after the government was dismissed by the president. would then became tenacious 1st female prime minister in the face of mounting, precious and mass protests against site. what are makayla? the am annuity daughter, there's no place for those who have wanted to undermine the sovereignty of the state and the sovereignty of the people. what they have plundered a lot of the people's money. they have turned their hopes into despair. i warn all those who entertain the idea of attacking the state and its institutions. we will

thwart their plans for the coming days. gone on comma sla assured him, and the 25th of july was a historic moment. i took that decision after trying all means of reasoning with them, but it was all in vain. on, let's make 2 journalists rabble allow we in at eunice. thank you for being with us . robert. talk us through some of the names in this government that was approved to day. does this look like a competent government that can address the issues tenisha is facing today? so he never knew each so after the president place hired power grab we have today the new government formed by 23 ministers and 9 women between those. so ministers, i think this government will face new challenges. i mean especially economic challenges challenges. we've been economic crisis that tunisia isa leaving i. a think we got some surprises in this govern,

especially with the nomination of though quick, sharp indian, who was the former interior minister, 2nd by the former pm. he shim and she she left the january. and we remember that when he showed me she, i dismissed the prime minister of the extract the dean, the pension doing it between the president and the prime minister. and today we see that though fear schaeffer didn't ease back in the interior minister, especially in the situation, i think this is really a surprise afford a tunisians so ah, than a member of the previous government back as interior minister raps away for the president to extend a hand, do you think it's a step in the right direction to heal the political divisions in the country? how. how is this new government going to be received by intonation? people, especially those have been protesting against eyesight actions. as i told you, i think they are facing challenges. the real challenges,

i'm not sure if they will work on the spree already to you that you need just are waiting for like economic priorities are political here is we know that the president wants to amend the constitution, want to amend the political system and he's planning new criminal elections, so i think they, they will be limited by dime and also by that word because the president announced that they will burn only and they're the exceptional measures. so we don't know yet how much time they will have if they will make it set challenge it. are we listening to a few minutes ago to the prime minister notion of women? who said that her priority is that to, to come back to corruption, but we don't know if her limited power and limited time will allow her to, to do this. i mean to come back to corruption, as i said, as i said, and also in the new government,

we have ministers who were in the government of the same issue like also a command issue. he's a black, you need in a lawyer, you will. you was minister, you, minister during the show me, she government. so we don't know yet. what will they do as they are limited in time and in power. we have also ministers who are from the pre or priority government like the minister of health and the mirror and the minister of finance, the doctor and nisa. so i think they are facing a new challenge is now going to make sure that and all political, janet channels this with limited time, limited power, i think what will make their decision or they are, they are work work. i mean, they need, i think, time and lot, lot of power. thank you for that. thank you, robin allowing my far in tunis, thank you for your time than to moorhead on this. use our,

including account pain to defend palestinian olive. girl is under a time from israeli settlers. will justice be, sir, for the assassination of one of africa's most revered revolutionary leaders? we're bring you the latest on the thomas on car murder trial, and an unusual goal from the a little messy as argentine as well. some quantifying, run continues, still have the best of the auction coming ah, i've got a son now where the u. s. and u. k. have warned their citizens of a security threat in the capitol. american and british nationals have been asked to stay away from hotels in cobble. some high profile hotels in the region have been targeted in the past. it's all as a recent rise in iso the time since the taliban take over, the armed group has claimed responsibility for last fridays mosque bombing in the

northern city of conduce. meanwhile, the taliban is holding talks with e representatives here in cut, our after meeting are with us delegates on sunday. washington is still refusing to recognize the taliban government, but it's agreed to provide humanitarian aids directly to the afghan people. shortly we'll hear from zane bas robbie, who was monitoring talks between e. u officials and the taliban here in dough habit. first we go to stephanie deca, lifeforce in cowboy. stephanie, what do we know about the nature of these threats against us and u. k. national enough kind of stuff, that's where i will revise. you mentioned there heard from both the united states, the state department and the u. k. foreign offers warning its national to stay away from the main hotels. one specific hotel here in the capitol. ah, kabul, this is something that we've been aware of for about the last 48 hours or so. it's always been a concern folly that i so kay would step up its attacks. we've seen an increase

already in the pace of its attacks over the last say 10 days or so. initially there were attacks in july about in the east of the country, then targeting a mosque here where there was a gathering of the senior leadership of the taliban, a real breach of security there. and then we had that devastating attack in the most that you just mentioned in conduce last friday. so now we have a very real threat here in the capital. the taliban has stepped up its security across various these areas, particularly with their special forces cordoning off some of the roads. main entrances, also snipers on the roof. and i think it's a challenge because this is a, you know, this was the security card that the taliban played, that it was the only one really to be able to bring security back to this country. and i think now i so case certainly seems to be challenging that and just briefly as you go into the talks in doha, this was one of the main demands of the americans when it came to the door agreement of last year was at the time about how to ensure that this country did not become what it called a safe haven for terrorist who could then launch it's attacks of further abroad.

now, as we know, i sold in ice. okay, do have more international ambitions if you will. so i think certainly at the moment it does seem clear that it is a security challenge for the taliban, and one that they are taking seriously. thank you for that 70 deck, alive in kabul. and his counselor to zane was ravi now hearing doha from one of those talks here. so day 2 of the talks between at this time the e. u delegation and the taliban on sunday, the time i met with the americans, of course. what is a focus on the talks to day and what is each side hoping to get out of them? was spokesman from the taliban has confirmed to us that they are indeed meeting with international organizations, presumably, ngos that are a part of the british and german representatives here in doha. we're also expecting the taliban to meet later in the day with the wider e u delegation. and what's on discussion? well, let's see from the europeans perspective, 1st the europeans want guarantees of

a primarily 2 things. they want to make sure the refugees don't come streaming across the border into europe, and they want to make sure that the problem of the humanitarian refugee crisis stays contained to have gone on and the shrine countries. they also want to make sure as my colleagues, stephanie doug from cobble explained, they want to make sure that of got a son doesn't return to becoming what it was before. a staging ground for a tax on international targets by armed groups like al qaeda and now the slumming state they want to make sure that have gone, has done, doesn't devolve into what it was before. a place where there was humanitarian crisis, beheadings of violence being perpetrated. against minorities, things of that nature. european countries want guarantees of minorities and women will be treated fairly. they want these guarantees, but primarily they want to make sure that they can maintain security both in terms of the refugee crisis that is potentially forming. now as well as a counterterrorism, a security and they want the taliban to serve or that purpose. now the taliban made one thing very clear. those guarantees will come with

a price tag. the taliban wants engagement. they want the international community to engage with them on an equal footing. they consider themselves as b, a government of afghanistan now. and as such, they also want the release of assets, a good afghan government assets, reserves that are frozen now by the u. s. and by european countries are in the way of, of gold in and american currency to the tune of $9.00 to $10000000000.00. that's the price tag that the afghan a taliban government say will be what they have to pay to maintain the security. and as a practical measure, they need to be able to shore up this very, very young government that they have a stepped in since the takeover of cobble. and they need to be able to provide humanitarian relief to people on the ground to make sure that you don't flee the country in so far as that is concerned, we have read reports that the european union is looking at your marking around $351000000.00 in humanitarian aid relief and a towel on want that to come into the country quickly. but most of the analysis that we've seen on this would suggest that the european and western allies like the

united states, are all willing to move pretty slow on this. they don't want to rush to anything. they don't feel the need to to put this money into play right away. they want to see what the taliban can guarantee in terms of the priorities of v have dictated upon the taliban in terms of not only a security concerns, but human rights for those off guns that are still in the country. and what might be a lesson for the taliban from his latest rounds of talks? is it, it may be a much more complicated affair. having the u. s. and e u countries as negotiating partners, much more complicated than it was to have them as enemies for the last 20 years. thank you for that. same vis ratty live in a large fire, has broken out at an oil facility in 7, lebanon, local media reporting, a fuel storage tank can't fly at the facility near the city. aside on the fires, close to one of lebanon's main power stations, which stopped functioning. 2 days ago because of a fuel shortage, a group of palestinians are starting a local campaign to protect

a farmers from israeli settlers, the head of the olive harvest season. this week. they say a settler tanks are increasing and pharmacy here they'll face more violence during this years. harvest it abraham reports sunday occupied westbank. how come i'm wrong? can only go on his land. 4 times a year is real. declared this area and bring village north of the occupied west bank. i closed military zone in 2016. it's near an illegal is really settlement and he needs an israeli permit to enter guardian look before was barometer unripe alo. so they don't generate much oil, but i'm forced to pick them now, which means i will lose the season. he hired workers to help him because many olives as possible. in the short time his given his absence from the land prevents him from tending his crop. but he says, what's worth is that he sees settlers attacking his trees and can't stop them. even when i'm gone saw his land being burned 2 months ago. he couldn't access it when he

was finally allowed to visit his plantation earlier this month. he says, more than half of his trees were damaged while is really authority site security concerns for not allowing farmers in amazon says the goal is to push palestinians out young hope you are old and they want to take it from us. our neighbors who were here left their lines after continuous settler attacks. now they took it over and planted grapes instead of olives. just before his permit ended for the day. and john sent us this video of sutler groups attempting to attack him and his workers. human rights organizations have documented a dramatic increase in violent attacks by settlers this year. activist abdulla missus, new generations of settlers are more violent. so they formed local committees to protect farmers normal. oh god, just it. most of the time the israeli army partakes the settlers even when they were attacking palestinians. that's why we want farmers to be in groups and not

alarm us. palestinian officials say there is an imbalance of power and of called on other states to put settlers on the list of so called terror groups lock. hm. law and phyllis to this campaign, aims to provide protection to the palestinian people from settlers terror. we want states to change their domestic laws, so settlers will be held accountable. in the mean time, am grown hopes his to his will be safe until he is allowed to go back to his land. the day abraham l just ita he occupied less than the 2021 nobel prize for economics has been awarded to david cards, a joshua angriest. and guido embeds a 3 u. s. base economist, one for their work on drawing conclusions from unintended experiments or so called natural experiments. david kind of the university of california berkeley was awarded one half of the prize. the other half was shared by an grace from the massachusetts institute of technology. and in bins from stanford university,

david cards, empirical contributions have improved our understanding of labor markets. his initial work challenge conventional wisdom which led to new studies and additional insights. joshua congress, them quito, inbounds, have clarified exactly what conclusions about cause and effect that can be drawn from natural experiments. their framework for estimation validation and interpretation has been widely adopted in applied work. the combined contributions of the laureates have completely read shaped empirical work in the economic sciences live to poll reese in stock on forest. so the nobel in economics, of course, the last price of the season to be announce any surprises when this year's award. well, holy pops a bit of a surprise not quite talk about economics just yet. a bit of a surprise that the nobel committee had promised in recent years to move these prizes pops away from white males away from the west. and, and that it's,

it's gotten to form of the last a 120 years or so. and, you know, before today, there were only 2 women who had ever won this economics prize out of 86 overall. and that's of his he now, 2 out of $89.00 after david called joshua the angriest angelito adobe in bens one. this is prize, but maybe there is a counter arguments that said david cods work a, using the natural experiments that you mentioned them. situations in real life that resemble random experience david called showed for example, it and raising the minimum wage doesn't necessarily mean she would jobs on the market on that. let site, natural citizens of a country tend to be benefited by immigration. whereas perhaps earlier, immigrants don't tend to be benefited by more immigrants coming in and,

and joshua congress and guido, in bens work showing that an extra year of education can have a considerable economic effect on the individual and getting greater salaries later in life. so while the nobel committee haven't done anything to write the sorts of geographical agenda and balances of the prize, which is going to take a long time to do, maybe they can argue that explaining these issues might affect the poor might affect immigrants. is more important than, than rights in those gender imbalances and those geographical and bible says, in the nobel prize or we since our home. thank you very much for that. still ahead on this news, our o'clock down in indian administered kashmir, 700 people arrested after a series of targeted killings in the past week putting their lives at risk. we look at the dangers faced by thousands of girls who are married as children,
