5:02 pm
aiming at people's heads. the snipers were on top of buildings. other gunmen could be seen firing in this straight docking behind cars. they have been at multiple explosions, and many people still hiding in their homes. his blood and its allies have accused judge carrick, data of being political biased in his probe of that blast, but they haven't provided any evidence. then a holder has been at the same this morning and fall this report from by rouge. there seems to be an on declared truth between these 2 political groups whose supporters were battling out in the streets of the lebanese capital. this highway really is a dividing line. it divides 2 neighborhoods. if you like. 2 strong holds 12 hour, right. which belongs to the mainly she are parties, amal and has the law and the other direction. it's the i know remaining neighborhood which belongs to the christian lebanese forces
5:03 pm
a party. we would not be able to, to be here. intense gun battles. we heard loud explosions, rocket propelled grenades were used really fierce confrontations that lasted almost nearly 5 hours. the lebanese army was unable to contain the situation. they are now deployed and out to enforce. as you can, as you can see, it was really a dangerous escalation that according to has milan. i began when the protestors who were heading towards the justice palace were ambushed in the statement as well. and i must say that the sniper opened fire, and they're actually pointing the finger at the lebanese forces. now the lebanese forces has denied this. they've denied this charge, and they're calling for an investigation. so it's very hard to independently confirm what happened. but this is, according to the authorities, how this escalation, this dangerous escalation began. so an undeclared truth,
5:04 pm
it is not clear what stopped this confrontation to maybe one of the reasons could be it simply because the country wasn't what could have descended into a dangerous security situation. we've also heard from lebanon's minister of interior, he says, the 6 people who were killed during the protest was shot in the head of the real threat lies on the use of weapons and, and go swelled targeted peaceful demonstrators. there were peaceful demonstrations everywhere during the past 2 years, but we have not seen such an attack against them. las hanner is a retired lemonade general. he says, the regional dynamics different than those which created the conditions for the lebanese civil war. as well as the local player, though he is a hybrid, it is within the state and outside the state is within the state when it suits him . and he's outside the state when he's really performing
5:05 pm
a regional goal like conditional role, like in syria, like in yemen like in iraq. so it is totally different. however, we still have israel, that is really can benefit from the situation. let's say this sniper that everybody is talking about, i don't know, i have no idea so far. so when you have such kind of things, you like to call them, they can go inside and really make living on an, in this price situation. usually lebanon is ms. price to do the way that may lead to civil war, and then everybody, every time, everywhere during the history on all the political use and let impose, however, maybe has been life threatening to assert himself as the main play of as the main, the quarter play of the politic level, because what, what we've seen from has been we have seen,
5:06 pm
also organized on before. you know what i mean? so it is not, however, everybody is accusing. doug, be thought as funny. yes, everything is what is the size in life? even in the united states, america and level on the judges are assigned by politicians and they bring their own people to this place. but this guy let him play because i think he followed certain areas. he said, everybody that really received a letter in the letter about the, you know, and trust ammonium will be asked for responsibility. you know what i mean. so why we don't let this play goes on and goes on to more world news now and a high level taliban delegation is in turkey, as it continues a diplomatic push for support and recognition. if all those days of talks in katara where the group appealed to us and european officials to own the country's isolation, the great ones, the west, to east financial restrictions,

5:08 pm
government of not being inclusive enough, including did the other minorities in afghanistan, other religious and ethnic minorities in afghanistan. i so, and so i said yes best. his concerns about that, and as he said that taliban must include all of this sort of the, the segments of the society being to the government to be an exclusive and an inclusive one. so in that sense, trick is going to put a pressure on taliban to be more inclusive. however, the other hand, from the 1st day on when taliban took over, i've gotten his son, took it has been very much positive to no i now and it's intelligence agency says, an attack, why man, welding a bow and arrow appears to be terrorism. 5 people were killed and 2 others injured in the town of kong berg, southwest of the capital oslo. a 37 year old danish suspect has been arrested as alexia bryan reports. an arrow pierces
5:09 pm
a wool in se in norway. part of what police say as several crime scenes, after a man armed with a bow and arrow roamed through the small town of cones berg about 80 kilometers from the capital. all slow. over 30 minutes he picked out targets, killing 4 women, and a man aged between $50.72 others were injured including an off duty police officer . the prime minister said the country had been shaken millionaire some form of a coast bank. if the message is coming from koenigsberg or gruesome, the perpetrator has carried out terrific acts against several people. it is a very dramatic situation that hits the community, heart of the events, shakers, i understand that many are afraid. the attack happened on soleberg last day in office. her successor jonas guard stood a cold. it a cruel and brutal act. police have arrested and charged a 37 year old danish man. intelligence agencies say it appears to have been an act
5:10 pm
of terror from your hall university composite one. earlier had been worries of the man having been radicalized, which the police have followed up. but as previously stated, no reports from 2021. there from 2020 or earlier police in the scandinavian country and normally armed, but offices nationwide have been temporarily ordered to carry firearms, no way suffered its worst peacetime mer shooting and july 2011. when a far right attacker and as private killed 77 people, many of them teenagers at a summer holiday camp. now flags flying at half mast and cones berg and the attack is being felt across all of norway. alex o'brien al jazeera for members of egypt. security forces are going on trial in rome, accused of involvement in the kidnapping, and murder of an italian academic julia were. jenny's body was found in

a ditch outside cairo. in 2016, an autopsy showed he'd been tortured. the cambridge university student was researching local trade unions the for agents including national security. general herrick severe, deny involvement, and will not appear in court. the case spawn to widespread outrage and strained relations between italy and egypt. adam rainy has more from outside the court house in wrong. this is the 1st day and the official trial. there been many pre trial hearing and this is going to be a long process is taken more than 5 years. just to get to this point, we're going to expect perhaps testimony from very high ranking italian officials, perhaps even for former prime ministers who are in office during the time since virginia's murder and a time this case has come to trial is a high burden for prosecutors because this has been a one sided investigation for most of the time,
5:12 pm
these officers are being tried in absentia and for the past year, the investigation has been conducted just by italian prosecutors, the attorney for the jenny family and their allies and advocates in egypt. gyptian, prosecutors themselves closed the case in december saying the perpetrator was, quote, unknown. so you have this, this one sided investigation. you had a lot of pressure from egypt that this trial shouldn't even go forward because they didn't provide physical address for those officers. so italian officials and prosecutors couldn't even officially notify the people they were on trial. but before this, there was a pre trial hearing, in which a judge said, it's clear, these men know that they're on trial, so it should proceed. so that's what we can expect a long process, high ranking officials and it's kind of one sided trial taking place. but there's a lot of pressure here in italy for to go forward because it's seen as the pivotal moment for the justice system to fight for the rights of someone murdered abroad.

5:17 pm
because most of the questions that we have been at for for the past 2 years is about how are you going to make the change? how are you going to change it? to the class, and i think that such as to the human that we feel our as the population and that we tend to forget and how we feel that we feel corners in prison. we seem to have gotten we feel bad. and we thought that after one of the biggest explosion in the history and this, this is going to be the, the maximum of our suffering. and this is going to end. and yet we fold down every day more and more. so i think that we feel duck, some of us are trying to find a way out and some of us are trying to find a way out til being and in be lose. and. and
5:18 pm
and yet i feel that all the rage that we have for on the streets and that we have for, in, on, on the, for after a year of the lucian is always facing much media players, much more violence layers. and at the end of the day, we're just a people who want to know who killed us. and we're just the people who want to live in freedom and dignity. it's sometimes it's as naive and simple as this and, and it's always about real politics and how we want. i want things to go in there in a political sense. thank you for this question. ok, let's just do a quick recap of what happened in by rows earlier today. what we do know is that 6 people were killed and dozens more injured. crowds aligned with shape political parties with demonstrating. when gunfire began, the interior minister says it's not as began shooting aiming for people's heads.
5:19 pm
the situation has come down. now as it stands, the sciences were until the buildings of the gunman could be seen firing in the strait. ducking behind cause there for multiple explosions and many people are still hiding in their homes. his villa and its allies have accused judge terry bitter of being politically biased in his probe a debate last, but they haven't provided any evidence. all right, we're going to cross to our guess now her name. unfortunately, she's not ready yet, so i'll just continue to recap. what has unfolded in by ruth. the protest by his supporters were against tara. better. as i mentioned, there was heavy gun fi that could be heard and reported in a hold. it was on the ground for us. the violence unfolded for a series of hours, 4 to 5 hours of gunfire. we could see blood on the straits and people running presumably for their lives. there was the army on the ground, we could say tanks,
5:20 pm
they didn't want to be filmed. and this is clearly an and it's clear dynamic situation, although it has relaxed. now at the moment, hey paula and amal movement say this knife isn't instigated, we're the ones that bear the responsibility for these tax. the parties are hiding behind the blood of the victim. the, his movement says of the port of the explosion. alright, let's try and close to that guess. now, i might do who is the lebanon and by rein research in the middle east and north africa, division of human rights, what she joins me from by roots. hello, there i, now you just have me recap. what's unfolded this morning in lebanon. first of all, what's your take on what's happened and particularly from a civilian perspective. what happened today was a show of force by has bella and its allies, essentially given public
5:21 pm
a false choice, either stability ah, without justice or justice, but no stability. this is just delayed since in a series of, of attempts by has by law and the ruling elite to undermine obstruct and block the domestic investigation into the baby. last because it had become, it had hit too close to home, the judge and leading the baby last investigation judge beside has refused to abide by a red line set for him by the political establishment. and he has, instead i tried to charge summon and prosecute very high level political and security official, which is really unprecedented in lebanon. and so the outcome of this case and the implications of this case, will go far beyond just justice for the baby last, but it will really change that ecosystem in lebanon. it does have the potential to show that these high level officials and political parties are subject to the rule
5:22 pm
of law. not, no, not the culture of impunity. and this is something that the political parties that by him, again, are fighting very hard against. so what are the broader implications on the political system then? i mean, how do we escape this cycle of circle corruption in that's the $1000000.00 question . people have been on the street for almost 2 years now against the corruption and the management of 11, 11 o'clock. but unfortunately, instead of engaging in reforms and fights and corruption, we've just seen the entire political band around us and protected from prosecution and some accusations of corruption and i got and from, from the public we've seen absolutely no reform carried out in the, in the countries in the situation deteriorates day by day. we've seen none of these
5:23 pm
individual or be held accountable for the class, but also for the claims of financial mismanagement correction that have getting the impoverished 80 percent of the new population. how does the system of, of corruption change? i mean, are, you know, human rights flesh has really been advocating for justice for the last as a focal point around the end point for future change and, and on. we really seen this the battle over just as the last flagship possible, that will determine the future of the country. is the country going to be continued to be held hostage by arms, munitions, and political parties to don't care about justice and non personal playground? or are we going to start holding them accountable for their decades of correction and abuse? beginning with that they last but also extending to other crimes that they've
5:24 pm
committed and other human rights abuses that they've committed against the lebanese public. i always say that roy is reporting that the us will offer an additional $67000000.00 to support the lebanese army. is that going to help and what, how does the army actually have 11 on as it stands? the army is one of the few institutions and that the non, that is widely seen as non sectarian. and so it has been the recipients of very large amounts of international age and the hopes of the army being able to be full war. again, the influence and the power and the arms of hezbollah. now, however, we have seen that the army has at times, either failed to protect the public from arms attacked by as groups like. i might have documented this extensively during the october 2019 protest. and we've also
5:25 pm
seen an instance of by today where the army did not foster and was not able to prevent launching civil strife in the middle of a residential area. so there you know, any money going to let them use army needs to be conditioned on investigations and so legit human rights abuses of the army and training a human rights training of the army to ensure that they are constantly upholding the rule of law. and they're not failing to protect the public from their usage committed by the army or abuses committed by non state groups. but see how the days in wakes unfold. thank you for your insights. i meant to do the 11 on and by ryan research in the middle east and north africa division of the human rights watch. thank you. thanks to the news. now, in a high level,

their expectation is that the british side will reject the proposal. why will, because it doesn't deal with that much more political question of the european court of justice. ultimately this could go on for weeks. what he's at stake is the possibility that the u. k. side institute article 60 proceedings to suspend the protocol, the e, you then retaliate. ultimately we're talking about the possibility of a trade war between these 2 sides. at least 46 people have been killed in a fire in southern taiwan. dozens of others were injured in the blaze that broke out in asserting story building early on thursday. well, there, he's there investigating whether the blaze was started. deliberately. tropical storm can pass, who has left a trial of destruction on the chinese island province of high nun heavy rains and strong winds brought down trees and power lines throughout southern china. and it's now moving towards vietnam. rob mcbride reports from hong kong coming to the end of
