2:03 pm
a lot of territory. it's more operating the sense of sleeper cells. and there's also a concern about potential infiltration among the ranks of the taliban. and i can tell you, we've just been out to a couple of the ministries here and security has been tightened. and i think it does give an indication now that the taliban realizes that certainly when it comes to the i, sol, attacks on it and on civilians. it's got an issue, a real serious issue to deal with. my mother pentagon says it will pay compensation to the families of victims of a drone strike in the capitol. 10 afghan civilians including 7 children, were killed in the august 29th strike during the final days of the u. s. troop withdrawal. washington originally said they had struck tag. it's linked to the ice hill affiliated afghanistan. opinions often sincere condolences and says it will work towards relocating surviving family members to the us to 11 on now and 19 people have been detained in relation to thursday's gun. fighting by route 7 people were killed in the worst day of carrying violence in he's fighting began after

2:06 pm
one of the exposure is very critical because there are political forces has an other political party. that's the one, the instigation to continue. and in fact, if we put the context, we see that the political establishment christian parties as one assume the parties as well as she has have continued ejected being held accountable for mid management, the conflict. so now what we see actually more particularly on the explosion to can the lead in helping the investigation and raise the more so much that, you know, with the investigation will not continue. and the judge be tar. and this is what the impact is because the government refused to concede to 2 days ago. hence, the council office is not need and has this left the process to show the political what has in addition to that, we've seen that the lebanese forces have exploited the situation to their own end

judges and the government pro democracy group say the situation is deteriorated very quickly, especially since the introduction of the national security law in july of last year . given that it now covers so many possible offences such as succession subversion, colluding with foreign entities. all things which they say can be so broadly interpreted. now the chief executive carry lamp the prob, aging pro, administration a group, some parties here. so it's thanks to this law that a sense of normalcy has returned sanity now prevails once more in hong kong, they say, and it is true that there are no longer riots on the streets via bomb sub boys stations being trashed. but according to many people here, it is come with a terrible cost for hong kong in terms of the rolling back of many of the freedoms that they used to enjoy. and basically ending up with an emasculated city. protest

2:16 pm
as well as arm groups and opposition. now those 2 had a division of i was how to go see it with the military that negotiated that, that i was to form a president bashir and eventually led to forming the transitional government. so they didn't, they're not represented and off. and now they're demanding that the transitional government, which includes several political parties, include them not just in the national level or in some states where as some of those groups are. but in the, around the country in those states around the country. and in the legislative assembly that is yet to be formed in those out states and those states and international expletive assembly. he but can you give us a context of what's been happening in sudan in race in wakes and mums yes, indeed. that's something that be a prime minister spoke of. i was also yesterday in his speech. he said back the nation is at the most dangerous point and back there is a split, a rift between the members of the transitional government that is causing delays in
2:17 pm
trying to, to make achievement embassy during this transition period. now over the past month, we've seen an attempted school that increase the division between the civilian and the ministry component of the transitional government. we've also seen the 2 sides refusing to meet each other. and we've seen the military, which brought protection from the committee to dismantle the former regime. all of this is just on top of that already existing tension between the 2 sides and the prime minister. and his speech in his address of the nation late friday said that that division is think it's very hard to kind of progress. but he has dialogue or an inclusive, a broader base of the government, which seems to be reconciled. and falling on all sides to try to come together, but people say that they want to see actions. they don't want to hear words and feel actions are met or seen because the patient or the nation right now remains as a sam bill. okay, we'll keep us updated as to how those demonstrations progress throughout the day.
2:18 pm
he'd been moving a cartoon the united kingdom now where ladies across the political, divine paying tribute to him, paid david amos, who was faithfully stamped on friday. the prime minister barak johnson stood alongside the leader of the opposition kit stammer. they laid rapes to the church in lay on see where i am. i was attacked while meeting members of his constituency . british police are describing the stabbing as a terrorist incident. let's bring in or a challenge who's live for us at the scene of the crime, or what mulkey tell us about the prime minister's visit there. johnson has cold david amos, the one of one of the kindest, nicest, most gentle people in politics and said that all our hearts are full of shock and sadness. and i think that is a message that regardless of whether you come from the conservative party, the labor party, liberal democrats, or beyond. it's a message in a view of david david, i, mr. many are expressing and many a sharing the,
2:19 pm
the flowers that you can see down over my shoulder. there are lots of them contain messages saying, thank you for your service to our community. thank you for everything you have done for us in this area. and that's a view that most people have of this man that he was kind, he was likable, and he was dedicated. so he was doing his job. that's how he died. meeting his constituents the, the police and now saying that this is a terrorist incident, they call it the investigation is being looked after by the terror unit of the metropolitan police. they are saying that much about the man he's been arrested only. that's they think there's a potential motivation linked to as they put it. islam is extreme ism and the, the 25 year old british man, rory, how do you think this incident will affect the security arrangements for in pays going forward?
2:20 pm
can you ever mitigate the risk now it's a very, very difficult balance to strike. and the home office is looking at m p. 's security at the moment, trying to work out whether it's good enough, whether it should be bolstered. but also people i think, are examining the tone and the tenor of discourse surrounding politics in this country. and whether it is got to toxic to vitriol, check whether the temperature of it needs to be dialed down pretty patel has launched a review into m p. security. the thing is that most m p 's don't want the kind of close security that top ministers have to put up with day in day out. it would impede their jobs, they have to be able to go out and they have to be able to meet the people who they represent. so david amos was stabbed while he was holding one of his friday surgeries. he was meeting the people who he represents in westminster,
2:21 pm
and that is crucial to the functioning of a parliamentary democracy. democracy like the united kingdom has. but of course there will be some kind of reckoning here. i think about whether more can be done about about bolstering m. p security. and as i said before, the examination is also turning to the language that gets used in journalism, in the house of commons itself, about whether things need to be calm down a little bit. of course, if this was, as the police are saying, it might be a terrorist attack, then it's not quite analogous to a culture of political toxicity, but it's still a period of soul searching. i think that's been kicked off by this murder and it will go for a while. certainly different, difficult balance to strike. thank you for the update. we're a challenge their life for us that the crime scene nearly 2 and a half 1000000 people in kenya may struggle to find food by next month because of
2:22 pm
a severe drought. the u. n says almost 500000 children under 5 intensive, thousands of pregnant and breast feeding women don't have enough to eat local charities or blaming rising temperatures, causing the path to rainy seasons to stay dry. yeah, i don't. we don't use died sheet and go to die to only god will help me if you will cool over this area. you will see my animals right there is hunger resulting from severe drought and we are unable to sell our animals. so we came to receive the 8 as we have nothing otherwise go, sir, and syllable cause are even worse. and our children are starving. the capital of the canadian attic territory has been told not to use any tap water because it's been contaminated with fuel. it can lewis, residents started complaining about the smell of petrol and water at the beginning of this month. but the nearly awake, the city insisted it was safe. alexandra buyers reports the people of
