people behind back in the state of lou xannon, being incarcerated is just another form of flavor. the gym co convictions on al jazeera ah the battle ground obey route 6 killed and dozens injured. as wible factions open far and the lebanese capital, the countries president says those responsible will be called and held accountable . ah, i don't know about this, and this is all just leave alive from doha. also coming up who to kenyatta becomes the 1st african leader to meet joe biden at the white house. as the u. s. pledges

17000000 vaccine doses for the continent and thousands of george's descend on the capital to demand. the release of their former president has been imprisoned over allegations of abuse of power. ah, the cautious com has returned to lebanon's capital following the worst violence in more than a decade. bay root has been rocked by gunfire. unblocked propelled grenades for more than 4 hours. at least 6 people have been killed. then a hodder is in bay route and she begins are coverage. sniper fire. gunfights rockets fired in the city. a battle across the dividing line. that dates back to the civil war that ended in 1990. 2 long time enemies turned part of a root into a battle ground. the bullets bounce from buildings as people ran for cover.

and children evacuated from school. we need the children to low levels and then we waited until the parents came to take their children. the children were going to panic and fear they cried and screamed a large army deployment failed to control the situation. supporters of muslim she political groups and his beloved were hunkered down and she neighbourhood. on the other side of the street where the support of the christian lebanese forces party, there were casualties. many of them civilians hit by stray bullets, some while hiding in their homes. the clashes are now in their 3rd hour. it is one of the most serious about the violence. in recent years, the tensions were over a judge leading an investigation into last 2 years. explosion at the report has belong, i'll say the confrontations began when the lebanese sniper ambush protesters making

their way to the justice palace where they demanded the removal of judge todd. at the time, they blamed the lebanese forces for the attack, a charge. the group denied the real threat lies in the use of weapons and those who have targeted peaceful demonstrators. there were peaceful demonstrations everywhere during the past 2 years. but we have not seen such an attack against them. the dangerous escalation followed political tensions over the investigation which has already paralyzed. the government has fallen, are threatening to pull their ministers, which means an entire sect would be absent in violation of the country, sectarian power sharing agreements. the opposition is accusing, has bala and of stating a coo and using arms to impose their will. ever since his bottle of arms no longer had any function except fighting wars in syria or assuming

agenda. and now imposing on the new state. what the justice is allowed to do and not to do what a judge can decide or can decide. and they're drawing red lines around ministers who are caught up and accused. and they're saying they are above the law. the guns eventually fell silent, but it further divided an already polarized society. there appears to be an undeclared truth, but the crisis is not over. demands for the judges dismissal, have not gone away. those against him say he is politicized. those who support him and that includes the families of victims. so he is among the rare judges who aren't politically affiliated in a country where there is a culture of impunity. and those in power act above the law. more than 200 people were killed in that blast that destroyed neighborhood. what happened today was a show, a force by has bella and its allies,

essentially giving the lebanese public false choice, either stability, ah, without justice or justice, but no stability. this is just the latest in a series of attempts by has by law and the ruling elite to undermine obstruct and blocked the domestic investigation into the lap. the balance of power is not in judge peters favor, but he did try to take on the powerful, which is almost unheard of 11 on history. it pushed the country to the brink and brought back scenes from a turbulent pass that may have been a warning of what might come. santa claus there. elisha zita, beirut, president michel own, has addressed the nation condemning the violence. i know you say that the we will never allow anyone to hijack the counsellor between what has happened to day will be followed on both levels of the judiciary and the security. and the investigations will reach the reality and the truth and the facts among those

perpetrators will be taken to the court in the investigation of the bill to port bloss will continue. because it's a commitment to what the lebanese people and towards the international community law, based on the independence of the judicial europe. well, the violence unfolded as a senior u. s. diplomat was in lebanon. the under secretary of states was missing officials and announced $67000000.00 for the lebanese military. but she said she was concerned about the worsening security situation in beirut. we stressed that a clean, impartial, independent judiciary is the guarantor of all the rights and the values that we as democracies hold dear and share again the lebanese people deserve no less and the victims and families of those lost in the port blast deserve no less. today's unacceptable violence makes clear what the stakes are running. corey is

director of global engagement at the american university of bay root. he says, the president's speech was reassuring. are the countries issues are deeply entrenched and will be extremely difficult to solve. his comments are significant. they armies, actions are significant. these are things that lebanese people like they want to have a decisive but fair government. but they can't unilaterally make decisions. they have to basically negotiate among the different sex area groups. and this is the weakness of the system that it's a perpetual bizarre, of political power and incumbency and influence. but the system has collapsed. it's failed completely. the 7080 percent of the la bernice are poor. the, there's no, virtually no tricity, it's, it's, i'm believable. the degradation that has happened in lebanon to the governance system, to the society, and this interest structure,

and to the psyche and well being of the average citizen. it's almost unprecedented . there's very few countries in the world that suffered this while the people responsible say in power. that's why i thought it because it's such a historic significant figure, the judge for him to pursue this investigation with the vigor that he has as really unusual. and when the president says we're going to catch the people and hold them accountable again, you have to kind of listen to that carefully because you had a special tribunal for lebanon that was set up by the un, hundreds of millions of dollars, years of investigations. they finally convicted 4 people, some of them length hezbollah and, and these people were never found, has below, would never allow their people to be arrested or convicted like this. and taliban delegation is in turkey as it continues a diplomatic push for support and international recognition. they've met the turkish foreign minister. the none of it comes a day after talks in contact with

he says that we have asked taliban to be more cooperative in terms of preventing a new way of the refugees. and also the asked taliban to assure the right of return for many africans wants to get back to the countries company. affordable. so was at the table at the meeting and he says that we have asked taliban to to, to give the assurance of the civilian police and to restart the selenium flies from the couple a port which is the last gateway off guard is down to the rest of the world, but he has been especially asked whether chuck he is going to recognize taliban or not. he says that definitely the international community must have a certain level of engagement with taliban that will be for the benefit of afghanistan. but it is not the recognition. so turkey is in an engagement with thought about that that, that, but that is not the recognition so far. you know, as president joe biden says, his country will donate millions of corona virus vaccines to the african union. in

he is one of the high profile leaders that has been mentioned in those pandora papers that investigation that revealed that there are a number of world leaders as well as celebrities and the others who have significant amounts of money invested off shore. and the reason this is of concern is not just because of the corruption or anti corruption campaigning that or who kenyatta did. but as well. 1 the fact that to kenya is one of the largest recipients of usa, the 5th largest, in fact, from the united states. so this is another reason. now the white house has acknowledged this. they say that look at, there may be some concerns, but that won't stop the conversations in order to achieve the goal of financial transparency. so that's one key issue. the other comes down to security and a given geography and the fact that kenya is position so close to ethiopia, and the concerns about the warring factions of the t gray region. the u. s.
