the agenda america can handle multiple challenges on multiple fronts. we need to go back to school. the bottom line on alger theorem, ah, as protest spread against the military coup, international support groups for st. john's hall to transition to democracy. ah, hello there i'm how am i here, dean. this is al jazeera life, and doha also coming up be used talk, court finds poland, $1200000.00 a day for their bitter dispute. so we're judicial independence. israel defies

american objections and proves plans for fountains of new illegal settlements in the occupied west bank and venezuela reopens a bridge that allows its people to cross over to columbia for foods and medicines. ah, we begin in that see don and the mountain sing, demands at home and abroad, and the military to walk back. it's qu the u. n. z assistance mission to see dan has tweeted that end boys from several western countries have met with those to prime minister abdullah humbug at his residence. now this comes a day after you. a secretary of state antony blinkin, spoke to him. sedans, neighbors are also showing veritas approval. the african union has suspended cartoon until civilian rule is restored and the world bank has put 8 deliveries on

holds while anger within is also growing. state oil company workers and doctors have joined the protests against the power brand power grab and the military is cracked. zane goes on. more politicians and activists have been arrested. and officials and diplomats, i've been sacked ever, morgan has more know from cartoon these road blocks on the streets and neighborhoods around to dance capital 2 are now a common sight once used to keep out security forces during anti government protests against then president obama will be here in 2019, they've become a symbol of rejection. of monday's military, cool. and on the 3rd day of the military peak over in the city weather revolution that overthrew this year thought that people were back on the street. the out in hard to protest. those have called for a general strike and civil disobedience,

state oil workers, doctors, businesses and other sectors have responded to that call. i'm going to move banks, government institutions and private companies are all closed. this is a full civil strike and people are preparing for the main event on october 30th. and i know these people were elected because we saw that they had to know how, but the military didn't give them the space to do their jobs right now. because the military has power, they have halted the past and taken us back to square one. but that doesn't work for us, this is why it's better than we're hungry versus his decisions. the qu has already had an economic and political impact on to them. the u. s. has an hour it will hold back a $700000000.00 assistance package that was meant for the transitional government that has been deposed. the african union suspended to dance membership on wednesday . and the world bank, which provided financial assistance, has withheld back to us. and i'm the tenant general, i've been put, the hon said he took power and dissolved the cabinet to avoid sliding into civil

war. his promise, a cabinet of professionals. but some analysts say forming a government accepted by all will not be easy if they manage to come up with an acceptable government government that is formed with real exhibit, one independent from political affiliations. who can be trusted to pick the country into election in 2020 city or 20 for us? it was a stipulated before. i think that would be the key. these demonstrate as they, they'll continue to build their momentum for more protests calling for an end to the military rule. several people have been killed since the crew on monday, and many more injured, but protested they, they'll go on until their aims are achieved. he bow morgan, alta 0 harpoon. the united nations has reiterated cole's furl detains government officials to be released. the situation and sit on was discussed at the un for 2nd

day in a row, kristen salumi has more. several council members took the opportunity to day to condemn what's happened, the u. s. called the military takeover, completely unacceptable. kenya, african member of the council before the meeting, i called on the security council to follow the lead of the african union, which is suspended sudan temporarily, and speak with one voice, but so far the counsel has been unable to speak with one voice negotiations on a statement are ongoing that we did also here today from su dan's representative at the united nations and he did not speak directly about the takeover. but he did call on the international community to help a little bodily food on cook. some delegations have expressed their concerns as to what is currently happening in sudan. and while understanding their concerns, we would reiterate the need for the international community and the security

council. more specifically, to continue providing that support to the people of sudan at this very important moment. which is a cross road in order to bring together the positions of the different sudanese parties, civilian or military so that the country can continue with its transition office. which is in keeping with the sacrifice of the women and the sudanese young people. and what has been achieved in the last 2 years in order to preserve the stability as expressed by the sudanese people and in keeping with the juba agreement for peace and the constitutional document. at this time, it's very important to bring the different points of view of the parties and sudan together and ask for that security council statements. we are told by diplomatic sources that 3 draft statements have been put forward by the united kingdom. the 1st 2 were objected to by russia over language condemning the militaries takeover were told that that language has been softened to express serious concern. we may on thursday at last have the council way in on this issue?

well, let's get more on the snow from cameron hudson. he's a senior fellow at the atlantic, cancels africa center and served as chief of staff for the un, special envoy for see don joins us now on skype from washington. d. c. and it's good to have. he withers on the program. international support appears to be growing for the civilian government, the transitional government. do you think the military are feeling that pressure? is there a chance that this could could be reversed? well, it's really hard to say right now. i mean, i think that we have to recognize that the military undertook this qu, knowing full well what the consequences would be on the u. s. envoy was there on the ground just hours before the coup was initiated. warning, the military of the condemnation that would come of the sanctions of the cut off in assistance debt relief that would be suspended. so they,

they took this decision knowing full well what the consequences were. the question is, you know, are they starting to bend now that the st protests have only continued to grow and will likely grow even further in the, in the coming few days. and now that the international community has shown a great deal of resolve in speaking out and condemning this, i think what we'll be looking for is to see whether or not some of the protectors of the regime within the arab world. and certainly at the security council with russia, whether they begin to crack as well, or whether they will continue to hold firm and defending the military. that will be a big determining factors to whether not the military could really hold on. they will, they could count the generals live with western supports, i mean the sit on his front so hard to get western sanctions lift aids for such a long time. is this not a concrete threats or do you think the general's a i've got another source of finance,

it means they're not going to be particularly worried about the consequences. well, i think there is a number of factors that are, that are playing in i think number one, the generals might be saying, well, we lived under us sanctions for 30 years, and we survived just fine again. the people of sudan did not survive just fine, but the elite military generals did. and i think what this coo proves is that the military generals are putting their own interests above the interests of the sudanese people. that's number one. number 2, they may have well received some assurances from friendly government suggesting that they might, i'd step in with emergency funds to fill the vacuum that's been created by the suspension of international assistance into the country. but i think, but the bottom line is that the military took this decision, believing that it could withstand the pressure that was going to come from the street and from the international community. i think only time will tell if that's the case. and in terms of the, the, the army itself, i mean, will they stand firm?

will they stand together because they're presenting a united front right, ny, but there are general sitting next to each other. i don't particularly like each other. and there's certainly factions within the army that don't trust each other. i do you see this playing aids? could we see these generals turner guns on each other? well, that's not, i think the principal concern right now, i think where the fractures within the military are going to emerge is between the, the younger officers who back in 2019 let's recall actually sided with the protesters. right? because they come from that useful generation, that is the majority in sudan. and so they to want to see, i think, sudan free. i think they want as professional army officers, they want to be associated with a professional army that is well respected around the world. they want those training opportunities outside of sudan, so they, they aspire to greater things as well. i think that's where the,

the fisher is right now. i think that if we see the senior level ranks of the military order as they did in 2019 the lower ranks to fire on or to really repress in a blatant way committed tri cities. that's i think, good to be aligned that the younger officers are not going to want to cross. that's what happened in 2019, when the, when the military realized at that time, they were not going to be able to repress the population. and they had to relent. which is when omar bashir was, was removed by his own generals, it'll be interesting to see what happens if these protests turn violent. if the military turns on the protesters, i think that could cause the military to fracture itself. and then who knows what will happen, deeds, cameron, hudson, great to get your thoughts. thank you so much for joining us on al jazeera. thank you. the europe ian court of justice has ordered poland to pay a daily fine of more than $1000000.00 in

a row over judicial reforms. the us angry about a chamber within the polish supreme court, which is meant to discipline judges. earlier, a polish court ruling challenge the supremacy of the law in the country and to sentence reports from the calmness of the european union's court of justice and luxemburg comes with amounts to a bombshell in this crisis involving poland and the you. the text is brief, e, c, j, vice president, orders, poland, to pay a fine of 1000000 euros a day because it's failed to suspend a disciplinary chamber of its supreme court. that order was made in july in a country where the vast majority of people support membership of the european union. it's government has been defying legal reforms ordered by the u. poland stands accused by brussels of political interference with a new disciplinary system for judges. polish judges of declare that some

e u. laws clash with their constitution. even before the latest action, the governing party of poland, accused the e. u. of blackmail. the $1200000.00 fine from brussels coincided with a harsh warning from belgium's prime minister, aimed at polish leaders. you're playing with fire when waging war with our european colleagues for internal political reasons. this is about the overwhelming majority of member states from the baltic supported gal who agree our union is a union of values, not a cash machine. you cannot pockets all the money, but refused the values that attack contrast it. with a diplomatic approach, the french president emanuel micron had been taking with the polish leader andre duda. however, macaroni had said, well ahead of this meeting that poland needed to make concrete proposals. the

question now is whether poland will be compliant or defiant. what's next? it's hard to say you could expect now the boys government to say, well, sorry, we're not able to pay this fine because it, our own boldest constitutional court has said that this would not be in line with the polish constitution. can the polish government afford to keep going against the majority view of polish people who value e. u. membership that is unclear. andrew simmons al jazeera still had on al jazeera lebanon's top christian politician refuses to appear at an inquiry into the recent violence and favorites. and how gangs in haiti are crippling the countries health care system. ah

from nablus in the occupied, westbank was the number of units approved in wednesday's meeting might not be as large as it was during the era of the u. s. president. donor trump, for palestinian one supplement unit is one unit too much. we're standing here in front of the league. israeli settlements of elite has been here since the eighty's and it has been expanding, has been connected to other illegal israeli settlements. and israel with a network of roads transportation has access to electricity and water. and it has also prevent the past indians from accessing their nance. we're not just talking about the built up area, but the whole mountain has been off limits to palestinians who own agriculture that they are. now when wednesdays meeting there are 2. it's really outposts that have been approved by this meeting. it means that sometimes settlers decide to put up

coat of arms, but they are not approved by the government. but many of them we've seen across the years were due to actively, later on, approved and recognized by the government. although in the meantime, they acts as they have access to infrastructure and services. when it comes to the palestinian authority, it's condemned. the new settlement building and said that all supplements are considered illegal under international law, urging the international community to intervene. there been protests and bay roofs after the leader of a christian political party refused to testify about recent violence. in the 50, some your georgia was due to appear at lebanon's defense ministry that says he won't until husband, this rolla, the leader of the sheer group has buller is also summoned. santa harder reports. they created a human shield along the road to march up north available. that's where the head of

josh, i described the judge, the ocoee who summoned him as hes bullet commissioner in the military tribunal. and his lawyers are trying to remove him from the case many here worry that the lebanese for his party is being targeted because it is a vocal challenger of what the opposition calls there has while are dominated political order. some opposition leaders also believe the case against azure will be used to bury the investigation into last year's explosion. at may root ports has molina to ally, amal accused, thought it better. the lead judge in that investigation of political bias and want him removed. and it seems they want charger convicted fool, unless you had, this seemed to be attempts to give georgia political and maybe even religious cover from the church. this is not acceptable or severe judge and all the killers should be taken to the place where they need to be. the growing confrontation between the 2 sides has raised tensions that can yet again lead to sectarian violence. it is

see reports now from the colombian border city of quota. 3 weeks after 1st announcing its venezuela's finally reopened former border crossings with columbia for pedestrians and the simone believe our international bridge is again dreaming with activity as eager venezuelans cross in search of goods and health services that you are. thank god, this is real progress. it's a big advantage because crossing through the illegal trails is tough and dangerous, especially for the sick and elderly fellow mano, columbia opened its side of the border and june 2nd. but it's limiting entry to keep daily numbers under control. while authorities police, some of the legal crossings often controlled by criminal gangs that thousands used during the closure. being able to cross legally and safely is a huge relief for people on both sides of the border. but many here hope this will also be the 1st step, the worst or restart of commerce in trade,

and that could jumpstart an economy that was badly hurt by years of closure by target. and what about time they took the step now let's hope it will be fully restored. we have a lot to gain from more trade and more interchange. former congressman fred, the betel al, whose been given the title of border protector by them are due to government, came to the bridge to check on the proceedings and called on the columbian government to reopen trade. or to say my heart monitor colombian side of the border is the region with the highest unemployment in the country. the paralysis has killed thousands of jobs and businesses. what we are ready to restart while, as brief as you know, they lay the borders. merchants association says it has spent more than 2 and a half years trying to convince the government to reopen. it says the closure as meant the end of 1300 businesses and more than 30000 jobs in columbia alone. those are those and then there must go morgan. i understand that the governments in

caracas and budgets are distant because they have different political ideologies and economic systems. but that doesn't mean that regular people and businessman can get together locally. and we evidently do in the needs keep the border opened up. it's time to set aside the differences and regenerate the commercial activities that always existed in i star oakley open border. some exporting companies are so anxious to restart that they are already filling trucks with goods like toilet paper to send to venezuela. as soon as their green lighted politics have long disrupted the codependent economic relationship between columbia, venezuela. now many can't wait to return to some level of normality. i listened that i'm petty and jesse dakota ah.
